The Marquis is thinking here, but Meng Han is thinking on the side, how can he hit His Highness more thoroughly this time. Since this guy has murderous intentions towards him, Meng Han has no intention of falling out with His Majesty the Grand Duke right now.
At this moment, it would not be appropriate to kill His Highness in front of so many people. Even if he wanted to kill His Highness, Meng Han had to wait for a suitable time, and it couldn't be through his own hands.
It would be good to borrow the hands of the Marquis, but the relationship with the Marquis is currently in the honeymoon period, and it is obviously inappropriate for him to take action. Since the Marquis has decided to completely kill His Majesty the Grand Duke in one or two years after the end of the war, then Meng Han
I don't mind having such a huge shield standing in front of me. I can't say that I can only really wait for the right opportunity. It seems that if the invading enemies make good use of it, it will be perfect.
"You are right, Tony." The Marquis finally seemed to understand. He patted Meng Han's shoulder intimately and praised with a smile: "Our interests are the real overall situation. However, now our overall situation,
The interests of the old prince are the same, which is to win. So, there is no need to think about whether we have to obey the overall situation, it is our interests that require us to do this."
This time, Meng Han simply gave a thumbs up in front of the Marquis without saying anything. The Marquis did not lack ambition, but he made small mistakes at certain times, such as not being tough enough, and
Excessively maintaining the apparent tranquility of certain situations.
When the Marquis left and the personal guards Meng Han brought had been arranged, Meng Han sat down, pulled the two maids Demi and Diana to his side, looked at the two women, and asked with a smile:
"When did you become so powerful? Why didn't you tell me?"
Demi and Diana can instantly cast more than a dozen magic spells at the same time, which is completely different from the performance of the two little girls before. Unfortunately, until now, the two girls only have simple magic shields and first-level magic.
His talent is even more amazing than the cheater Meng Han.
"Can it be faster?" When he saw Demi gesturing proudly to tell him this fact, Meng Han couldn't help but was so surprised that his jaw almost dropped. How long has it been since he came into contact with magic?
The girl has made such amazing progress, which makes Meng Han have to carefully consider and focus on training the two little girls. Such speed, and it is only the simple guidance of Meng Han and Mr. Kevin, when it comes to magic
It seems that the two little girls are capable of catching up with sisters Louisa and Louise.
"When this damn war is over, I will personally take you to the magic academy to do the magic apprenticeship trial and become a real magician!" Meng Han gently patted the heads of the two little girls,
He pinched his face hard and promised with a smile: "If any guy dares to stop you, I will send him to the mouth of a jungle spider as fodder."
Meng Han's happiness, in the eyes of the two little maids, is more important than the titles given to them by His Majesty the King, and it makes them both happier. During this period, Meng Han spent almost half of the time away from serving Meng Han, hiding in the shadows of no one.
The hard work of practicing magic here has finally paid off. As long as they can see Meng Han smile, they will be happier than any reward.
The principality is gathering troops, but the invaders are not idle. In just ten days, the principality has lost almost ten castles. On average, one castle will fall in less than two days. Without exception, the principality will fall.
The castle will be ransacked. The reason why these guys invaded the Principality of Trans is purely for profit.
The invader's army gathered from the five principalities was almost 100,000 people, with an average of 20,000 people per principality. This number of troops is very reasonable and will not affect the defense of each principality. At the same time, the five principalities unite,
The total military strength is already twice that of the Principality of Trans, which seems to be more than enough to achieve victory in the invasion. Add in the principality's army that was wiped out in the previous month, and the ratio between the two sides has almost dropped to three to one.
In addition to the standing army, the army assembled by His Highness in the castle also has a group of new recruits who have been recently recruited and are undergoing training. There is no way, the number of people is too far apart. It may be possible to hold the castle, but it is not possible to regain the lost ground.
An easy thing. The territory lost during this period has been one-tenth of the entire principality, and the loss of wealth is countless. Such a huge loss of territory and wealth is exactly what the Marquis and the old man will do.
The Grand Duke's reason for maintaining a consistent view of the overall situation. No one wants his principality to become weaker and weaker.
All this information was obtained by Meng Han from the channels of the underground guild. After several beatings from Meng Han, and the fact that Meng Han spent real money to buy information in the later period, the huge temptation stimulated the underground.
Everyone in the guild was as excited as if they had been given blood.
When those guys collecting intelligence heard that they were working for the Lord of Huangsha City, they all rushed to the front. No one cared about how dangerous it was to risk their lives to observe the enemy's situation near the invader army, because that meant
As long as they deliver the information timely and accurately, they will have a considerable amount of gold coins in their pockets, which is more than their annual income in previous years. Under heavy rewards, there must be brave men. This sentence, in this world
, the same applies.
Compared with Meng Han's well-informed situation, His Highness's side seems to be a bit worried. Although His Highness has some military talent, it is only a little bit. Compared with a real commander-in-chief, it is still far behind.
However, the person who was suitable to be the commander-in-chief of the army had been very close to the Marquis a long time ago, which forced the old Grand Duke to consider sending his incompetent son to this position.
Of course, the old Grand Duke had also calculated correctly, and the Marquis would not want the Principality of Trans to suffer a devastating blow, so he was so confident and bold in appointing his son as the commander-in-chief, and gave the Marquis the title of deputy commander-in-chief.
Head. This move is, firstly, to indirectly restrain the Marquis, secondly, to earn more military merit for his son, and thirdly, perhaps just to disgust the Marquis.
Naturally, no one would care about His Highness's actions, but the Marquis was able to share part of the intelligence he obtained with Meng Han. This part alone was enough for the Marquis and his think tanks to determine that the intruders were
The army's personnel composition, force structure, and strength inference can even vaguely predict the enemy's next move.
But soon, everyone discovered that after His Highness became the commander-in-chief, he also had another important role, which was to legitimately use military orders to order people on the Marquis' side to perform some dangerous tasks. In addition to removing some eyesores, he could also
It greatly weakened the power of the Marquis. However, the Marquis could not say anything about this. The aboveboard conspiracy is actually the most difficult to deal with.
A cavalry of six thousand people, which is also the vanguard of the invading army, has approached the military castle and is still about two days away. The Marquis also feels that he can no longer huddle in the castle and the principality needs an inspiring person.
victory, so this information was sent to the commanders' meeting.
"It's just a few thousand cavalry. Without magicians, it's easy to defeat them, isn't it?" His Highness said this with a smile, and then immediately ordered: "Simple, as the commander-in-chief, I ordered Viscount Antonio to take his army.
Defeat this cavalry force."
"I only have two hundred men to face six thousand cavalry?" When Meng Han heard this ridiculous order, he couldn't help but feel extremely sick in his heart. What's the point of such a principality and such an army commander?
"Of course you are not alone!" His Highness continued with a smile, and then called the names of more than a dozen people one after another. Without exception, these people are all members of the Marquis. Together, our soldiers can almost get close.
four thousand.
"You are the vanguard." After His Highness pointed out these people with a smile, he added an explanation, and then continued the order. Next, there are his people. However, his people are not the vanguard, but the Chinese army resisting the enemy.
, numbering six thousand, and all led by regular troops.
Strictly speaking, it seems that it is not an exaggeration to say that an army of 10,000 people will fight against 6,000 people. However, everyone understands that this is the trap set by His Highness against the people of the Marquis. More than a dozen lords
Even if there are 4,000 private troops, they have never cooperated at all. Even if there is a unified command, they are still scattered. When the vanguard faces the 6,000 regular cavalry troops who have been stimulated by the wealth they have acquired, their morale is so high that they can overlook all living beings.
, the results can be imagined.
The most vicious thing is that, strictly speaking, the lord's private army is a group of people with strong combat effectiveness, and they are also the largest group of forces invested by the lord. Even if these people die, they can drag many enemies to hell. And the remaining
The remnants of the enemy under his command have to face an elite 6,000 regular army. The Marquis's people have become cannon fodder, while His Highness's own people are comfortably picking peaches and enjoying the fruits of victory.
If you want to resist, unless the Marquis falls out with the old Grand Duke now, otherwise, disobeying the order will be enough to be sent to the guillotine. The problem is that the Marquis is not ready to fall out with the old Grand Duke yet, and the war in front of him cannot be controlled.
Everyone fell out.
"There is something wrong with this arrangement!" The Marquis objected on the spot.
"I am the commander-in-chief. If there is a problem, I will take the blame and resign. However, whether there is a problem needs facts to prove." His Highness smiled triumphantly. Anyway, as long as he can get all these people to die, he has achieved his goal.
, even if he gives up the position of commander-in-chief, he will be satisfied. The problem is that unless there are facts to prove that there is a problem with his arrangement, that is, if these people are all dead, it will be considered a problem. On the other hand, if such an arrangement still succeeds
, it means that there is no problem with his arrangement and he can continue to serve as the commander-in-chief. However, is the Marquis really willing to sacrifice so many of his own people to prove that there is a problem with His Highness's arrangement?
