ps: Thanks to the rebel soul§z, pants zhu for the monthly pass
Ten days later, at the foot of Elibrock City.
Geer and Fenos hid in the trees on the side of the road, looking at the city head with a strange expression.
As one of the most important affiliated towns in the Merzai region, Airibulok plays the role of the southern barrier and is also the most important granary in the nearby area. It is responsible for the collection and distribution of crops in the nearby area. There are grain merchants going back and forth all year round.
This place can also be regarded as the center of a prosperous commercial area.
However, due to its location in the hinterland of the Principality of Hastings, Merzai withstood threats from outside the country, so the town's walls have been famous for being short and narrow in recent years. They are also made of a mixture of bricks and wood, and their beauty is
Far more than its defensive properties. And Iribu
Locke also only equipped a second-level mercenary group that patrolled the parliament for defense. It was usually only used to deal with sporadic bandits and businessmen who intended to evade taxes. Therefore, when Slacna's church army arrived, there was nothing
The town was captured in suspense.
Of course, this kind of city defense capability also gave the refugees the opportunity and confidence to counterattack. If it were a strong city defense system like Berne and Hiawatha, Geer would not bring people here to die.
Now Geer came here with Fenos because he heard from the hunter who was conducting the investigation first that he had discovered a strange situation.
Sure enough, under Fenos' guidance, Geer saw a flag erected on the city wall, the three-sword intertwined flag belonging to the Principality of Hastings, and it was not Slakna who was walking up and down on the city wall on guard.
Instead of black-armored soldiers, they were some miscellaneous troops wearing various kinds of armor, which looked quite like the style of Hai Si Ting's second-line mercenaries.
This is completely different from the situation they had in mind when they were occupied by the Slacna Church.
Did the Slakna Church abandon this stronghold?
Or are there other changes happening?
Unfortunately, it is not known whether the Slakna Church has been too violent in the nearby area. Except for this town, no traces of human activities have been seen in the wild, and the nearby villages have long become a dead zone. No one can find out the specific situation.
Geer thought for a moment and did not go up immediately to confirm his conjecture. Instead, he sent a more experienced hunter to disguise himself and go into the city to check the situation inside, and then make a decision after getting the exact information.
After waiting in the bushes for nearly two hours, Geer finally saw the hunter he sent out returning. However, it was different from when he went there. There was one more person when he came back.
…
"Your Royal Highness, I am a member of the Falstaron family. I have come to welcome you on the orders of the patriarch. I also want to tell you the good news. With the concerted efforts of our military and civilians, Eli Bullock has completely
The country has been restored and returned to the banner of the great King Haisting..."
Geer stood with his companions, watching the middle-aged man who had followed the scouts and was known as the messenger of a certain family, kneeling on one knee in front of Sylvia, performing a tall and graceful speech in an operatic aria.
Performance.
After an aristocratic foreshadowing, the content of the messenger's words finally turned to the events related to Eli Bullock, allowing Geer and the others to understand what exactly happened.
Among the nobility, those who have their own territory and army can be called "princes". For example, Geer can be regarded as a prince before exchanging his territory to the royal family, and nobles who work for the royal family and receive high salaries from the royal family
distinguished.
The princes are an important part of a country in the past thousands of years. The royal family that dominates the nominal dominance due to various conditions can not effectively control all land. At this time, it is necessary to seal the princes to ensure that the regional stability of the place where the royal power cannot touch.
Over time, the royal family of various countries realized the harm of princes to national sovereignty, and has been thinking of ways to weaken domestic princes. As a emerging country, Hestender is no exception.
However, in order to ensure the overall stability of the country, the methods used by the royal family will not be too fierce. Hansting's previous monarchs have always used a gentle method to reduce the strength of the princes, and at the same time, they no longer seal the real power nobles like the princes.
. If this means can last dozens of years and hundreds of years. Then the vassals in China will eventually dissipate like smoke clouds, but at this time, there are still many princes in Hesteen.
The Fostalon family who controls the Asskekine Fire Brigade is such a prince.
As a member of the foundation of the Gongguke of Hesteen, the head of the Associans of the Fire Brigade Mercenary Corps, as a mercenary as a mercenary, is a legendary story from the beginning to the final sealed prince, and Ah
The name of the Sarko Fire Brigade is also inherited. As the private name of the Fistalon family, sometimes some mercenaries are also received.
The landed land of the Fista family is about 30 kilometers away from Eribroke, a half hills, and the location is a bit remote. In addition, the people in the Fista family have always been low -key.
People don't know much about it.
It is also for this reason that the Fista family did not become the primary attack target after the church in Slaba defeated Erbrock. This situation gave the Fista's family fully reacted to the people to escape and prepare for arms.
Waiting for the counterattack.
Coincidentally, Erbrock's new rulers, Bynes, led the army to pursue Geel, which caused Erbrock's urban defense forces to be empty, and the contemporary Fista family chief Eric Fista was decisively issued.
After attacking the order, and led the army to participate in the assault on Erbrock, as a result, he took a drum and took the Eric Brock back again.
That day was just ten days ago, and the day when Gel and Bynes decisive.
These days, when Eric prepared Airbulk's retaliation against the church army, many church soldiers escaped from the Grizzlies' hills, and learned that there was another resistance in the old forest in the deep mountains.
The forces of the Church invasion of Slaba also defeated the main legion led by Bynes, which made Eric Fista, who now ruled Erick, who ruled Erbrock
Their goal must be Eribroke, so these days in the city to explore the whistle outside the city to investigate all aspects.
Although the hunter sent by Geer was very sophisticated, at this time, in order to prevent the church from returning again. The people of Erbrock tightened their nerves and paid attention to any strange face.
Riblock was stared at, and then the people of the Asskeko Fire Brigade directly came up. After some peaceful contact, the two sides were temporarily affirming the identity of the other party, and the Erik Viscount would just like it.
I sent a messenger back to the hunter and started formal contact.
Of course, this hunter will not tell everything, but just say some basic situations. Regarding the leaders' identity and main member origin, they have been brought vaguely.
intention.
After questioning Gel and Fenos carefully, the messenger who covered his eyes was brought back.
Along the way, Geer took the messenger several times, and Finos was dragged behind to check if there were people who were tracking. After ensuring safety all the way, he brought the messenger to Silvia.
After learning about Silvia's identity, the messenger who had always been proud of him suddenly changed his face, and performed the above scene in front of Geel.
Seeing the messenger who thought of his words and his expression, he looked at his knees, and Lucarine said to Geel, "Gel, are you sure he said the truth?"
"That's right." Gel nodded slightly. He even used a model analysis when he asked the messenger before, and determined that the other party did not bring it back after lying.
"Camerta, what do you think of this person?" The beautiful female deputy turned her eyes to the goddess official who was sitting in a wheelchair.
"The oil cavity is smooth. The mouth is covered with oil, and the quality of the oil is not very good. However, as a messenger, he is very qualified." The beautiful goddess official gave her evaluation.
At this time, Silvia's conversation with the messenger also came to an end.
"I have already understood what you said, you will retreat first. After a while, you will answer you." The young princess ended the topic.
"Yes, His Royal Highness. Revisible people first."
The messenger left here under the leadership of the Silver Crown Cavaliers, now led by the Silvia Guard.
"Gel, Mansic, Sister Camelta, what do you think?" Silvia turned his eyes to the three people. The three of them could be regarded as the decision -making layer in the refugee team.
"Go and see first, then make a decision." Gel answered briefly.
"I agree with the words of Lord Corbonsen." Mankic said his approval of Gele.
"Decision must be based on a full understanding of the grassroots, I think it is worth seeing." This is the answer of the goddess.
"Well, that's it, that's it." As the highest leader in the name, Silvia made a decision directly.
"But I can't just pass it like this. I will take people to form a formal contact first. After confirming that there are no problems, you will come over and meet again." Gel said again.
"Then ask you."
Nympho
When Grie Gel returned to Erbrock with more than 20 soldiers and the messenger of the Fistalon family, it was the moment when the sun was hotter in the afternoon.
Everything in it is glittering.
When Gel saw Eric Fista, the other party was bathed in the golden waterfall and stood at the gate of the city gate with a smile on their sidelines.
Eriko is about twenty -five years old, with long brown hair and handsome appearance, but his face is a little pale. What is amazing is his eyes, one black and one blue, two colors.
The blue is clear and pure, with a different kind of charm, which makes people deep at first sight.
"Dear warriors, welcome you to return to Erbrock. Because of your heroic performance, this city can return so easily to the king's banner. Here I only express my sincere thanks to your behavior on behalf of the people in this city.
I also hope that in the future, with your help, restore the tranquility of the past, thank you! "
As soon as Eric came up, he showed his enthusiasm to Geer and his party without any pretense. As a powerful nobleman, he even shook hands with the soldiers led by Geer and paid tribute one by one. Finally, he gave Geer a warm hug.
It doesn't appear to be anything artificial.
Immediately, Geer's subordinates who were born as civilians had a good impression of the young nobleman who had recovered Eli Bullock. The resentment they originally thought was a guy who took advantage of the Refugee Force and the Bynes Force dissipated in an instant.
.
"I am Griezmann Wolfgang Kolbensen, and I am currently serving Her Royal Highness the Seventeenth Princess." Geer nodded slightly and briefly introduced himself. After all, his title was equivalent to Eric's, and
The title of Konatas, one of the three great powers, is not as valuable as this powerful nobleman, so he uses a more equal tone in his words.
"Your Highness the Seventeenth Princess?"
Eric obviously did not expect this answer, and turned his somewhat surprised eyes to the messenger. "Bliss?"
Geer took a step back and stood with his soldiers, expressing that he did not understand the intention of the messenger to make the report.
Eric gave Geer an apologetic smile, and then pulled the messenger aside.
After a while, Eric came back with an even brighter smile. "I didn't expect that it would be Her Royal Highness the Seventeenth Princess. She is worthy of the blood of the Anslin family. Now I am even more looking forward to meeting Her Royal Highness immediately.
With His Highness, the people of the entire city will feel more at ease."
"There will be an opportunity soon. However, for the sake of safety, I must take over the city defense first. Only after ensuring safety can I notify His Highness to come. Please forgive me." As Geer spoke, he stared at the other person's peculiar pair of eyes, staring closely.
Every fluctuation inside.
"Of course, that's what it should be." Eric was startled for a moment, then showed a brighter smile, which exuded a bright and soft light under the sunlight, as if he didn't resemble a person from this world.
Seeing this scene, Geer also had a smile on his face, but only he knew the charm of it. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
