In comparison, instead of attacking an enemy unit that is recovering and recuperating, it is better to see if there are any missed opportunities on the way back.
While chatting here, Drasel suddenly noticed a man riding a horse in the distance. He took a closer look and saw, good guy, Arthur is back again!
"What are you doing here? Do you want some chicken?"
"No, no, Russell, as soon as I returned to the castle, my subordinates told me that one of your scouts was recently intercepted, and there was also important information about you."
"Oh? Then you..." Russell hesitated to speak, but his wretched expression said everything. So are you telling me, telling me, or telling me?
"I decided to tell you that after all you have selflessly helped me many times, I am willing to put aside the interests of the kingdom and prioritize our brotherhood."
"You are really my good brother. I never slept with you for a night in vain. Okay, Arthur, tell me."
"This scout is a subordinate of Earl Harlan, sent to find you. The message he conveyed to you is that he is attacking Gili Castle and Gili Village in our Kingdom of Nord, and he hopes you can help."
Good guy, it's Earl Harlan again. He's a militant. He beats others every day and never gets tired of it. Russell shook his head with a smile and said:
"Okay, but Earl Harlan is very strong. He has countless elite soldiers, but he can't defeat him. What's the point of me helping?"
Arthur replied: "You don't know something. Gilly Castle and Gilly Village are in charge of our brave man Aji from the Kingdom of Nord. He is one of the few outstanding leaders we have."
"How good is it?" Hearing Arthur's introduction, the Baron became interested. After all, knowing yourself and the enemy means you can win every battle. It is always good to know more about the other party.
"Aji is very lucky. He has always been very lucky on the battlefield. He can be tricked by others, encounter heavy rain all night, be flooded by others, and encounter a rare drought."
Hearing this kind of thing, Russell was so angry that he wanted to slam the table. Was he kissed by the goddess of luck? He said angrily:
"Damn it, this is a dead end! Forget it, I won't go. According to what you said, if he is surrounded by others, he can find his teammates to help and counter-surround the opponent."
"It's very possible that in the last kingdom war, his entire army was wiped out. He was about to be kissed on the neck by the opposing lord with a sword and his soul died in the west. Unexpectedly, there was a thunderbolt and lightning in the clear sky, and he was killed by the opposing lord."
Russell was shocked. He couldn't tell for a moment whether he was the male protagonist or this Aji was the male protagonist. Such good luck. He couldn't help but ask: "What happened next?"
"Later, I took the body of the lord opposite and returned to the kingdom to receive the reward. The castle and village were sealed and renamed Gilly Fort and Gilly Village."
"It's really auspicious. Okay, thank you Arthur, I won't go." After Russell said that, he was about to turn around and leave, heading for Uxhall.
"Wait a minute, Russell, I know a little secret about Aggie, which can also be said to be his fatal flaw. He has very bad luck in this matter."
"Oh! What is it, what is it, tell me." In an instant, Russell's eyes lit up.
"That's it... he... knows it, right?" Arthur whispered in Dracelle's ear.
"Haha, hahahaha! Hahahahahaha!!! Got it, got it, thank you Arthur, I'll go right away. With this news, I promise to defeat him."
At this time, the system shamelessly went online, and it was also a little curious: [What's wrong, what is the little secret?]
What's ridiculous is that at this moment, the system heard the most indignant and deafening cry from Russell in his life: I won't tell you! What can you do to me!?
"Well, I wish you a safe journey and a successful start. Well, Russell, I really have to leave this time. Although it is cruel, the next time we meet, we may be enemies. As a last resort, we can only fight.
"
"Well, I really hope there won't be that day. I really have to leave this time, Arthur." After thanking Russell again, he led the troops and rushed towards Gili Fort and Gili Village.
Fortunately, before leaving, Dela Serdu asked Arthur how to get to Gili Fort and Gili Village, so the journey was smooth, rain or shine, and the road was wide.
However, Fort Gilly is relatively close to Arthur's fiefdom, and it only took Russell's troops only one day to arrive.
It has to be said that when he first arrived, Russell was shocked by the scene in front of him. There were corpses everywhere under the walls of Gillie Fort, and some stray dogs and cats were still eating the remains of the corpses.
Those under the city wall must be soldiers from Count Harlan's army. Unexpectedly, as one of the most capable lords in the Kingdom of Swadia, Count Harlan's performance has always been abnormal recently.
Seeing Russell leading his team, a glimmer of hope flashed through Earl Harlan's melancholy eyes, and he greeted him eagerly:
"Oh, my God, brothers, reinforcements, reinforcements are coming! It's you again, Russell, it's you who saved me from danger!"
[System prompt: The friendship level between you and Earl Harlan is 3, and the current friendship level is 15.]
"Yes, why am I saving you from danger again? When will you help me... Ahem, no, Earl Harlan, why is the situation so embarrassing?"
"Hey, as you can see, it's just a mess. Come sit down in my tent and slowly discuss the strategy to retreat from the enemy." After saying that, Earl Harlan put his arm around Drasel's shoulders and walked into the tent.
.
Russell estimated that explaining the previous defeat in front of everyone would definitely weaken the morale of the army, so it was not a bad idea to go to the camp to chat privately, so he did not push his hand away, and the two entered the camp arm in arm.
"Okay, no one here can hear me. Let's talk, brother Harlan, what's going on?" In a place where no one was around, Russell also changed his title, so that communication would be more cordial and casual.
"Hey, little brother Dela, you don't know something. I acquired Duckburg and Hiko Village a few days ago. In addition, I already owned Harunburg and Harun Village. For a time, the voice of dissatisfaction with me gradually spread in the kingdom.
rise."
"Well, I've heard about this. What's the point? When I took over the town of Uxhall and the three subordinate villages, everyone was envious and jealous, saying that I was not worthy of the position."
"You and I are still a little different. You are the son who inherits the throne from his father. This is just and natural! Even if you were not so superior at the beginning, everyone only dared to be angry and dare not speak out, and just gossiped a few words."
After hearing this, Russell felt that his doubts were cleared.
