Scene 465 The Battle of Mintai III

"Hmph, you're just trying to be mysterious. Have you detected the movements of other armies nearby?"

"Not yet, my lord. ()"

"Is there any news from Sir Sae and Sir Card who attacked Mintai Castle?"

"Not very good, sir. The attack has been frustrated."

"What?" The expression on Grand Duke Golan Elson's face turned cold.

"...According to Sir Sae, the opponents are very sophisticated and have a strong sense of resistance. They fight street battles with the armies of the two knights in every section of the street, and the progress is very slow. Moreover, the opponents also have witches to help them, and they can often surprise them. Retake the defense lines we have captured."

"That's nonsense." Before Archduke Golan Elson could speak, a middle-aged noble beside him said coldly: "None of Count Tonigel's most elite White Lion Guards and cavemen have left the Fir Territory. Mintai's are just local patrolling cavalry and guards, where is the experienced army? Humph, these guys are selfish and just want to preserve their own strength."

After hearing these words, Grand Duke Golan Elson couldn't help but frowned. Although he agreed with this statement in his heart, after all, Saer and Sir Card were his own people. It was this guy's turn to speak.

He was just a despicable person who usurped his brother's position. If he didn't have a common enemy, he wouldn't even bother to associate with such a person.

Moreover, those rumors about Yanbao also made Grand Duke Golan-Elson frightened. He couldn't help but look back at the other party, his eyes falling on the skin of the other party's neck and cheeks that were covered with silver and purple markings. Pieces of fine crystals had even grown in some places. Grand Duke Golan-Elson shuddered and took a step away in disgust.

"Where are the wizards of the Buga people?" The Duke finally calmed down the nausea in his heart and asked, "Are they not as good as the witches of the Tonigel people?"

"No..." The knight hesitated slightly: "The Buga people seem to have lost a high-status figure. They are furious about this and are trying to find the murderer."

"Oh?" Archduke Golan Elson was surprised. He didn't expect that one of the Tonigels could kill the Silver People. He couldn't help but feel a false alarm in his heart. Fortunately, he didn't get too close to the front line. .

However, this also made the Duke frown secretly. The strength of the Tonigel people was beyond his expectation. He originally thought that with the support of the Buga people in this war, he should easily defeat his opponent. But whether it was Jean Denel or the offensive of the nobles of Lantonilan, they all hit everyone in the face - Lantonilan is now a quagmire, trapping the gray mage and all things at once, and even more Needless to say, Jean Denel's White Lion Guards are still resisting, and the Earl's deputy has not been caught yet.

Although Grand Duke Golan-Elson did not say it openly, he could vaguely sense that the Buga people behind them were becoming more anxious day by day. He did not understand why, but the war against Tonigel was launched in advance. It all proves this point - this war should have waited until the plans of Jean Denel and Lantonilan were fully implemented before starting.

And when I thought about the Tonigel people's fleet, the elite White Lion Guard and the cavemen who were said to have fought against the Empire, they had not yet been dispatched. He couldn't help but feel an unspeakable uneasiness in his heart.

And this was the origin of his gloomy expression at the moment.

At this moment, Archduke Golan-Elson can only hope that the plan to unite all things will succeed.

"Our soldiers saw that it was Ms. Nimesis who killed the wizard."

"She?" Grand Duke Golan-Elson asked quickly: "Then the Buga wizard caught her?"

The knight shook his head.

"What, you ran away?" Archduke Golan Elson felt disappointed when he saw this.

"No. According to the descriptions of the soldiers, the lady seemed to have died in the subsequent battle, but our people did not recapture the other party's body."

"What?" At this time, Earl Yanbao couldn't help interrupting him in surprise: "Can it really prove that the other party is dead?"

Although Archduke Golan-Elson was dissatisfied with the other party's interruption again,

But the news also cheered him up. The female knight Nymesis should be the person in charge of the Corcova royal family with the highest status in the Fir Territory. If she dies, the Fir Territory will definitely be leaderless, and the subsequent war may be decided in one fell swoop.

"It should be," the knight replied: "Originally, we should have been able to recapture the opponent's body, but something suddenly changed on the battlefield. Our soldiers were attacked by a druid and were forced to retreat."

"A druid?"

"It seems to be the centaur warriors described by Lord Macaro in the Ring of Trade Winds. She is just a woman. She will use some weird abilities to trap our offensive. She seems to have a companion who can call De Rui’s animal companions are coming to attack us.”

"Where did the centaur women come from, you idiot." Archduke Golan Elson replied angrily. He frowned: "I know, that's a banshee, but I've never heard of one in the forest. The banshee became a druid, does she really have animal companions?”

"No, sir. Those beasts were summoned by another person," the knight replied: "Our soldiers have seen with their own eyes that the other person is also a woman. She can command thousands of wolves to fight against us. Those ...They all seem to be male wolves in the black forest."

"Male wolf?" Archduke Golan-Elson frowned.

"Ha," Earl Yanbao seemed a little unconcerned: "Don't worry, my Lord Duke. That Lord Earl has some Druid allies, and they also appeared in the Battle of Ampelsel. But Maca Mr. Luo has already told us, hasn't he? Those druids are not the slaves and subordinates of Count Tonigel. If things cannot be done, they will not fight against us desperately. After all, the Black Forest is their hometown. And that land is not worth a penny to us, and we have no conflict of interest."

He spread his hands: "This is great news. As soon as Nymesis died, the Tonigel people collapsed without a fight. Their lord is not here, and now they are loyal to the Corcova royal family. We can’t protect ourselves, and now even the only remaining noble here has died on the battlefield. We only need to announce this news and this war will come to an end."

"Really?" Archduke Golan-Elson glanced at this disgusting guy and replied calmly: "I hope it is as you think."

Although he answered like this, Duke Golan-Elsen felt a hint of uneasiness in his heart - although it was not that he was worried that the Tonigel fleet would suddenly appear on the battlefield. The fact that Nymesis was dead meant that all things The arrangements of the Guiyihui came into effect, and it was no longer possible for the Tonigel people to organize an effective offensive.

But here's the thing.

Did they intentionally ignore another issue?

That name has been long forgotten by everyone in the kingdom. He may have disappeared in the Cruz Empire, but is he really dead?

"Maybe it won't be such a coincidence..."

Thinking of this, the Duke couldn't help but shudder in his heart.

…

The snow has been falling for most of the day and shows no sign of stopping.

The forests on both sides of the Gers River have been dyed mottled white, and the canopy of the pine forest is shrouded in snow. The river is still gurgling. Occasionally, ice floes from the upper reaches flow down the river, sometimes broken by the snow. Dead branches and fallen leaves swirled through the middle of the river.

"Lord Earl, let me and Luo Lint go to the front line together. Since those treacherous people have already reached Tonigel, let us fight them to the death. With you here, we will definitely win. I will give them a nice!"

Montolo Jr. said, pumping his fist.

Behind the boy, Hainf and Claudia stood side by side holding hands, and little Montolo was not surprised by this. Anyway, he felt that his father was unlikely to agree to his brother's marriage, but according to his brother's usual temperament, even if he opposed it, it would be meaningless. He knew his brother's temper very well, otherwise he wouldn't have gained so much bad reputation among the nobles.

He knew in his heart that his brother's mind was actually much stronger than his own, but he had never cared about the appearance and swordsmanship of aristocrats. He had many friends and was more like a knight than a nobleman.

But this may be better. Let the Montolo family be revitalized by themselves - be loyal to the best lord in this kingdom, take back the glory from the battlefield as a true knight, shine the lintel, and realize the revival of the Montolo family. , this is the life he wants.

Brando glanced at these young people, as well as Akane beside him, and Albert and others from the Gray Wolf mercenary group standing not far away.

Luo Linte lowered his head slightly. Little Montolo's words made him feel a little uncomfortable. After all, he had a lot of hesitation in his heart before making this decision. After all, he once belonged to the nobles' lineup. Although he took the sword from Brando by some mistake, after calming down, he had to carefully consider his position.

Do you want to stand with your father and family?

Or follow your inner desires?

But after a moment of hesitation, he made a decision - perhaps because of the undying passion in his heart, or for a more rational and wise choice, but in any case, after taking this step, he could no longer retreat. .

As for the position of his father and his family, Luo Linte thought clearly. There was no need for Count Tonigel to lie to him: the Buga people did not tell the truth. They were just using the nobles of Eruin. This early war showed that a lot of questions.

Although the local nobles of Eruin have now been tied to the Buga chariot, sharing weal and woe, the problem is that the Buga may leave at any time. If the rebellion succeeds, it is fine, but if it fails, it will be Eruin's. The nobles could not bear the burden.
