Seeing that the private army generals were blocked by one person, all of them looked timid. Darnell couldn't help but feel ashamed and angry.
At present, most of this coalition army is composed of noble private armies. Especially in terms of high-end forces such as knights, private armies account for the vast majority.
On weekdays, these private knights and military officers and generals are proud of their talents and domineering. Not to mention the ragtag army, even the long knights of the Munich City Guard Knights do not take it seriously. In their view, the other party
They are just relying on the Munich City Guard's trademark. If they really fight on the battlefield, I'm afraid they won't be their opponents.
Darnell actually had a bit of a headache about this.
In the past, these knights had participated in several knightly competitions that gathered strong men from several surrounding counties in the noble territories where they were loyal to each other. They had wiped out bandit groups and escorted convoys to nearby big cities. They were considered to have seen the world.
.Many of them have never even left their territory in their entire lives.
In terms of personal strength, although they have the same level title as others, there is actually quite a gap in terms of combat experience, martial arts, etc. If they really have to fight to the death, with the same number and strength, they are definitely not Munich.
The captain of the city guard and the knight's opponent.
No matter how much he thought about it, Danel never expected such a situation.
Although these private army generals and knights around them are not the strongest, they are all selected elites. Together with their retinues and guards, there are more than thirty people in total, but they were so frightened by just one person that they became a mess.
, even if the other party is a glory knight, it is really embarrassing.
Amidst the scolding, Darnell pointed his finger at Debata and was about to threaten him harshly, but before the words came out, he saw a group of knights behind Debata. They dispersed with a roar, forming a semicircle.
The private knights were surrounded.
These ragtag knights all had their swords drawn out of their sheaths. The fighting spirit rings on their bodies had been activated a long time ago. When the horses sat down, under the stimulation of fighting spirit, their bodies nearly doubled in size, their blood vessels dilated, and their muscles became knotted. A pair of
His eyes were as red as a ignited flame, and his horse's hooves as thick as a bowl were digging hard against the ground.
This scene not only made a group of private army generals feel like they were facing a formidable enemy, but also made the onlookers around them speechless!
Everyone has no doubt that as long as Debata gives the order, these knights with fierce eyes will kill them without hesitation!
If everyone was still lucky before, thinking that no matter how crazy the mob army was, it would never really cross the bottom line, then now, no one has any similar thoughts!
In the eyes of these guys, there is no military law at all. There is no awe, and there is no bottom line!
Darnell was completely confused.
His finger was still pointing at Debata, and his face was still filled with the cold and aloof majesty. But in front of him, Debata and a group of ragtag knights did not even glance at him.
Aguli beside him looked into the distance. He was like a sculpture, turning a blind eye to the crazy behavior of his knights. He was completely ignored.
Avery, on the other hand, glanced at him sideways, but the sarcasm in his eyes only made him more embarrassed!
Darnell was extremely embarrassed for a moment, but he was helpless in the face of this group of unruly and daring ragtag knights.
Reasonable? These bastards are not reasonable people at all.
Use force? One glorious knight scared these dozen private army generals with their retinues and guards. The other ragtag knights next to them were also murderous! What's even more disgusting is that Avery also announced
After martial law was declared, even if I wanted to mobilize troops to suppress it now, I couldn't.
Darnell was unable to stop, so he first turned his attention to Rupert, the nominal leader of the ragtag army. After receiving a helpless smile, he gritted his teeth, turned his attention to Avery, and said: "Avery, what about you?
But everyone saw it. They committed the murder in public. Everyone present was a witness. If you don't solve this matter, I will report it to the headquarters. Let General Eugene and the noble elders handle it!"
Everyone turned their attention to Avery.
Darnell's words directly transferred the conflict to Avery.
Avery frowned and said: "I said, I don't know about the mutiny. I have known about this action of the ragtag army for a long time, and I personally approved it."
With one sentence, everyone was stunned.
Aguli and Debata looked at each other, confused. Darnell and a group of noble private army generals held the hilt of their swords with pale faces, and their bodies stiffened for a while.
"What do you mean?" Darnell swallowed hard and asked with doubtful eyes.
Just now they were still speculating whether there was someone from Eugene behind this operation of the Wuhe Army. Although they had almost determined the answer based on various signs, after all, there was no evidence for this kind of thing, and it was impossible to get it.
The other party's admission can only remain a guess.
But they never dreamed that Avery would dare to admit it publicly!
What frightened everyone the most was that since he dared to admit it, it meant that he no longer needed to keep secrets. Thinking further, under what circumstances, there was no need to keep secrets... For a moment, everyone broke out in a cold sweat.
The other party is about to take action?!
Did this civil war, which even their nobles did not want to start easily, break out so suddenly?!
If Avery attacks here first, how many of them can escape?
Many nobles and private army generals turned pale in an instant. They held their swords, reined in their horses, and circled uneasily, scanning the surrounding environment, trying to find a way out for themselves!
However, Avery's answer was not what they imagined. He said calmly, "Everyone knows that the purpose of forming a ragtag army is to make up for our lack of strength. We can hand over some less important tasks to
By giving it to them, we can allocate manpower to other aspects."
As he spoke, he smiled slyly at the livid Darnell and said, "Today's operation is actually an exercise. The main purpose is to protect the rear camp. Look, they did a good job, didn't they?"
Surrounding the rear camp is for protection?!
Not to mention Darnell's group of private army generals, even the officers around Avery and the ragtag knights such as Aguli also looked strange.
Even they themselves can't believe such nonsense.
Seeing the blood rising on Darnell's face, he gritted his teeth and was about to refute. Avery didn't give him a chance. He waved his hand directly, interrupted his words, and said: "Of course, I didn't expect that they didn't do it beforehand."
Communicate with the rear camp, and also use this exercise to intimidate the rear camp and ask them to hand over the cadets who were unreasonably detained. Although this is right from a humanistic perspective, it is still very inappropriate from a military law perspective.
OK...I will criticize you seriously."
Very bad?
Serious criticism?
Darnell's face turned pale with anger. He wished he could find a table and turn it over on the spot.
You son of a bitch, you can't even deceive a three-year-old child with such ridiculous nonsense, but he can't say it out loud. He can also say it in such an upright and frank manner.
This old fox! If he is really having an affair with Wu Hejun in secret, then this is cover-up. If not, then this is buying people's hearts!
If he hadn't known that his strength was no match for Avery, Darnell would have wanted to fight him on the spot. A bloody five-step move!
However, he also knew that now was not the time to be impulsive.
Darnell suppressed his anger and sneered: "I dare not believe what Mr. Avery said. Since it is an exercise, I think we should also clear up the misunderstanding in the rear camp and let them cooperate. I want to see Herman.
I wonder how long Master Avery’s exercise will last?”
"I'll ask." Avery shrugged and spread his hands. "You know, I'm not the specific executor. I still have to listen to them on this matter."
Darnell was so angry. I really wanted to spit in his face!
He said with a livid face: "Then I will wait here until I see Herman!"
Avery turned around and walked to Aguli, looked into his eyes for a while, smiled bitterly, and whispered: "Okay, Master Aguli, can you tell me what you want to do now? If it is true,
If it's just to release the imprisoned young man, I can guarantee that I will do it! I will never let Herman hurt him."
Facing Darnell, Avery took the matter on his shoulders, but he didn't even know what the mob wanted to do from beginning to end. And the reason was just because of his trust in Aguli. He
Know that no matter what Aguli and Debata want to do, their honor will not let them do anything that harms Lullian, harms the empire, or harms their reputation or violates the rules.
Looking at Avery's sincere face, Aguli didn't know what to say for a moment.
At this moment, a clear and sharp whine suddenly came from the pigeon fungus in his right ear. Aguli listened attentively. After a moment, he raised his head in shock and looked at Deba not far away.
tower.
Debata, apparently also got the same news. The two of them looked at each other with a glint of disbelief in their eyes.
After a brief period of confusion, the corners of Aguli and Debata's mouths curved, and their expressions returned to normal.
"Mr. Avery," Aguli said in a deep voice, "General Eugene, you are not in the military camp now, are you?"
How did he know? Avery was shocked and couldn't believe his ears. It was a secret that Eugene left the barracks to see Mrs. Joyce. In order to keep it secret, Eugene and his staff studied tactical arrangements and came up with a secret.
Jin Chan escaped from his shell, making others think that he was in the main tent of the Chinese army.
But Aguli, who was far away from here and whose status was completely impossible to come into contact with the core affairs of the army, suddenly stood up and said such a sentence, which shocked him.
However, the matter was of great importance. Although Avery's heart was beating violently, his expression remained motionless. He just frowned: "You ask this..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Aguli.
Aguli looked into his eyes and said calmly: "I also know that General Eugene went to see Mrs. Joyce."
Avery's pupils shrank for a while. If the person speaking in front of him was not Aguli, he would almost draw his sword.
"How do you know?"
By this time, Avery no longer concealed anything, but asked in shock.
"How do I know? You will understand in a moment," Aguli narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw Avery admitting it in disguise, and said decisively, "However, I can tell you now that it is a trap."
As he spoke, he gently pressed Avery's forearm with his hand. He held down the deputy commander, who was about to jump up, to prevent him from acting abnormally when his mind was lost, causing Darnell next to him to behave abnormally.
Wait for someone to see some clues.
"Time is running out now. Let's defeat Darnell and the others first, and then we'll tell you in detail. Now, just cooperate with us on what we do. Don't worry about anything."
"Okay!" Avery gritted his teeth and agreed.
After the two of them whispered, everyone around them saw Aguli bowing to Avery and saying, "Since Mr. Avery gave the order, we will naturally obey it. However, we also hope that you will do what you say."
As he spoke, he turned to look at Darnell with a stern expression, and gave an order to the rabble-rousing soldiers: "Everyone, return to camp immediately!"
Following Aguli's order, the Wuhe Army soldiers immediately started to move.
Groups of soldiers lined up and evacuated in an orderly manner to the adjacent rabble-rousing military camp. The carriages blocking the road were also put on wheels, hitched to horses and driven away. Knights in heavy armor followed one by one.
As everyone passed by, the chaotic sound of horse hooves and the flapping of armor gradually faded away.
After a while, the road blocked by the rabble-rousing army was cleared. As the last group of soldiers left, the gate of the logistics guard camp appeared again in front of the private army generals.
Looking at the empty roads, the gates and walls of the closed camp of the logistics escort team, and the guard towers. Those pale-faced and frightened soldiers and officers. Darnell and the private army generals could not believe it.
A conflict that was already on the string was simply eliminated.
What conditions did Avery agree to to the rabble?
Could it be that the ragtag group of guys surrounded the logistics escort and really didn't do anything? Is their purpose really just for that boy named Roy?
The private knights endured the confusion in their hearts and followed Darnell to gallop towards the logistics escort. All the answers would be revealed as soon as they saw Herman!
……………………
……………………
On the tower, Herman looked pale as he looked at Darnell and others who were speeding outside the military camp.
Behind him were two guards, and Auston and Algernon, who had changed into guard uniforms and stayed by his side.
The three just knights who had just fought a life-and-death battle with Hermann, who were also captains of each squadron of the logistics escort team, stood quietly further back.
When they usually follow Herman, they stand here. But the only difference is that now, their awe-inspiring eyes are no longer directed at Herman, but instead fall on the two great bright knights and the one in the shadow of the tower from time to time.
On the figure of the thin young man.
The brutal fighting in the cell has come to an end.
Edson and a guard died, and Hope was seriously injured. The remaining people also had an internal conflict with Herman and became enemies who could never trust each other.
And the lives of all of them are in the hands of Roy and the two Great Bright Knights.
Standing on the guard tower, it was almost half the prayer time.
This time is not too long. However, if they had a little bit of luck before they started again, then what they witnessed while standing here during this half-prayer period was enough for them to understand that they had fallen into
into the clutches of a huge devil.
And the owner of this devil's clutches was the young man who was arrested by them and attempted to murder him in the cell!
He can actually mobilize a ragtag army!
The two leading knights of glory, as well as those knights who dared to draw swords against the noble private army generals, were obviously all his people!
Every time they see Roy's somewhat confused young face, Herman and several knights can't help but feel chills in their hearts. In this life, they have seen all kinds of young people, whether they are talented, successful, or confused.
Some are smart, some are even a little ruthless...
But they have never seen a boy like Roy, who looks innocent and harmless on the outside, but is so cunning and sinister on the inside!
If they had not experienced it personally, it would be impossible for them to imagine that these things were actually done by a boy of 17 or 18 years old!
Compared with him, those noble lords who thought they were hiding behind the scenes and controlling everything were simply innocent girls under the stage lights. And he was the real devil in the darkness!
Now, the entire logistics escort team is in his hands. Even Herman is forced to betray his lord, Countess Natasha, and confess all the information. Although he doesn't know what Roy wants to do,
But everyone knows that a big net hidden in the darkness is slowly opening towards the ignorant noble camp!
There was the sound of horse hooves. In the blink of an eye, Darnell and the others had already galloped to the gate of the camp and shouted loudly.
Seeing Darnell's arrival, the guards at the gate quickly worked together to remove the heavy door latch, and in groups of three, they opened the two doors with a loud bang.
In the silence, Roy's voice came to Herman's ears, "Mr. Herman, do you remember clearly what you should say?"
Herman's body trembled, he turned his head and took a deep look at Roy. He bowed his head and said, "Remember it clearly."
"Okay," Roy said with a sunny smile on his face, "I'll wait for you here."
Led four guards and three just knights, Herman turned downstairs, walked through the open space in front of the camp, and greeted Darnell and others who had already entered the camp gate on horseback.
By this time, the sky had completely darkened.
Torches have been lit on the camp wall, and braziers have been placed around the open space and on the road to the camp. The private army generals got off their horses with the help of the swarming escort soldiers. Some people quickly separated and looked around. Others were looking around.
Under the leadership of Darnell, he walked to Herman.
"How?" Darnell asked with a serious face as he looked around.
Judging from what they saw in front of them, what they were most worried about did not happen. Although the logistics escort team was surrounded by rabble-rous troops and cut off contact during a multi-prayer period, there was no sign of attack in the camp, except for the soldiers.
Apart from his slightly frightened expression, everything else was as normal as usual.
"Nothing happened in the camp," Herman saluted and replied, "Those untouchables asked us to release Roy. I ignored them."
"Did they attack the camp or do anything else?"
"Just them?" Herman sneered and said disdainfully, "If you give them a hundred more courage, they won't dare! I'm not worried about this at all! Besides, our logistics escort team is not vegetarian.
If they dare to attack, I can guarantee that they will die as many as they come."
Herman's pride made Darnell feel relieved.
He patted Herman on the shoulder, nodded and said, "I feel relieved to have you in charge!" As he spoke, he lowered his voice and said in Herman's ear, "Where is that boy?"
Herman said: "It's still closed."
"How are you going to deal with it?" Darnell said with half-squinted eyes.
Herman was silent for a long time, then made a gesture of cutting his throat, and lowered his voice and said: "Master Xilin said that he didn't want to see him get out alive."
Darnell took a breath and was stunned for a while before nodding.
Although they both belong to the noble camp, in terms of his relationship with the Langris people, he is far inferior to Joyce, Natasha and Wells. It is just because of his relatively outstanding personal strength and military understanding among the nobles.
, and barely squeezed into the inner circle of the aristocracy.
Darnell is self-aware and knows that given his status, it is not a good thing to inquire too much. Therefore, he has always been immersed in doing his job in the military. As far as the news is concerned, as a member of the noble lord
He is not even as good as Herman, Count Natasha's confidant.
Especially regarding the murder of Roy and the attack on Eugene, Darnell was completely unaware. Even at this moment, Herman only told him a small part of the news. Not even a word about the part about Eugene.
He didn't mention it. But it was enough to make him panic.
At this moment, Darnell suddenly discovered that the undercurrent shrouded in the bright lights, gorgeous palaces and melodious music had completely escaped control and became more and more turbulent. The dark clouds shrouding the city of Munich finally
It will turn into a thunderstorm and crush people hard.
It is already dark. Countless conspiracies, countless betrayals, and countless bloody assassinations will be staged one by one with the death of a young man.
Looking at Herman's sinister eyes and imagining the young man who looked like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered in the dark cell of the guard tower, Darnell suddenly had the urge to run away far away.
"Since there is nothing going on here, let's leave first." The panic in his heart made Darnell unwilling to stay here any longer. After several private army generals who were looking around reported that there was nothing unusual, he followed
Herman confessed and hurriedly left the rear camp.
However, the distracted Darnell did not notice the complex emotions flashing in Herman's eyes when he turned to leave. Nor did he notice that just as he was shocked by Xilin's ruthlessness, the latter
The camp has already quietly changed its owner.
What he didn't even know was that shortly after he left, Herman had already followed the young man who he thought was a prisoner and whose life was hanging by a thread, through a hidden passage and walked in.
