Chapter 313 This is it!
The windows of the stone hall were wide open, and under the black stone vault, the white curtains were blown back and forth by the cool breeze.
Although it is only May, the hot wind from the Emerald Sea has already blown into the castle of the Red Copper Fortress.
In the hall, a young bard played the lute and sang a Western-style ditty in a low voice.
There were only two people sitting in such an empty hall, one was Niedersall and the other was Zelaken.
Due to his status as a bard's slave, he is not regarded as a human being by Niedersal.
On the long oily fir table, melons and bayberries from Black Snake Bay are soaked in ice water.
The sauce-colored oil soup and sugar water flowed down the edge. In the bone china bowl, there were several broken bones.
A few black wolves were frantically tearing apart a piece of half-cooked beef at the foot of the table. Spices, bad breath and the smell of sweat turned the originally fresh and elegant hall into a smoky mess.
Wiping his greasy hands casually on his body, Niedersall burped and reached out to grab the wine glass beside him.
The wine glass was decorated with gold and rubies, and the crimson wine exuded the aroma of fruits.
Downing nearly a pint of delicious wine in one breath, Niedersall slammed the glass on the table.
"Woohoo——"
After drinking two quarts of wine one after another, his face turned red and his voice doubled in size unconsciously: "Zelaken!"
“I’m here, Your Excellency.”
"Do you know what the happiest thing has been since I came to this sterile place?"
"How did I know, Your Excellency."
"First , hairless bitch!" Niedersall put his elbows on the table and stretched out two fingers drunkenly, "Second, cheap fruit!"
He picked up a cantaloupe and took a bite. I bit off half of the skin, chewed the seeds together and swallowed them.
“It’s cool! Hahahaha.”
Zelakken winked at the attendant on the side, and the servant gingerly took out the ice bucket and handkerchief and walked to Niedersall's side.
Niedersall picked up a handkerchief and soaked it in the water. He wiped the grease and stains on his face evenly, then leaned on the back of the chair with his legs crossed: "Prince Condai wants me to put that gang together." Are the stupid peasants destroyed? "
"To be precise, Prince Condai wanted to take action himself, but was stopped by the church.
Because everyone can see it now, no matter what. The uprising in Rapid City and the uprising in Fort Joan of Arc are both diseases caused by mustard moss
But the uprising in Cold Spring Castle can really shake the foundation of the Church of the Thousand River Valley, whether it is momentum, bloodline, territory, or strength...
This Grand Duke Meliati was the more threatening party, so the church designated her as its primary enemy.
I estimate, this is my estimate, the church is willing to give the free tax package of Qianhe River Valley to Prince Condai if he puts down the rebellion in Cold Spring Castle. "
"So Barneyforth's letter is just, hiccup..." Niedersall let out a big wine belch, "The Church means that I am the Knight Commander because of the Church and Condé. One of the trading conditions for goose? "
"Yes, if you go and capture Castle Joan, you will be the future Knight Commander of the Thousand Valley Temple. "Zelaken said decisively.
Niedersal's scarlet tongue picked at the meat shreds and fruit fibers in his teeth, but the greed in his eyes could not be wiped away.
As a high-level knight who defected from the royal court, even though he received the title of [Sand Sculpture], in the eyes of the church, he was still a stepmother.
Just like he and his Negosacks were assigned to a useless place like the Red Copper Fortress, even if he was sent away.
Compared to the Red Copper Fortress, Castle Joan of Arc is a place that matches his identity. "Has the spring plowing been completed?"
Hearing Niedersal say this, Zelakken knew there was something going on.
"It's all done. At least until July, there will be time."
"Then have all the knights been summoned?"
"They have all been summoned. Everyone is staying at the border. I'm waiting for you to come back, otherwise, they would have rushed to Castle Joan."
"Hey, when did these bitches become so enthusiastic?" It's like they have a bottomless pit, Ni. Desal grabbed a cantaloupe again, "When I usually summon them, I have never seen them so active."
Zelaken accompanied him with a smile: "You don't know, as soon as the Salvation Army arrives, The Kush leader hanged hundreds of nobles, big and small.
The family members were forced to work as hard laborers and technicians, having sex with their soldiers every day. The demon Horn even had sex with the witch's sister every day. "
"Impossible! Niedersall interrupted him directly, "With the witch?" No brains? ”
“Yes yes. "Zelaken quickly agreed, "The main thing is that the nobles hate and fear these rebels. They help the farmers execute the nobles, which is beyond the bounds. ”
For nobles and extraordinary knights, they can be killed by nobles, killed by extraordinary people, or even assassinated by civilians.
But they cannot accept being killed by the lowest mortals. Execution on the execution table for "just cause" rather than death in battle or assassination
"Don't say these lies. How many troops do they have and where are they stationed? How many do we have and where are we stationed?"
These data are so familiar that Zelaken opened his mouth and said: "According to what we have in Joan of Arc According to the information from the fort, there should be about 5,000 infantrymen, all pikemen and crossbowmen, and more than 500 extraordinary knights.
Currently, more than 2,000 are stationed near Fort Joan of Arc, and more than 3,000 are stationed at the border. area.
Currently, there are 800 extraordinary knights, 1,200 retinue knights, and 3,000 armed peasants from Jinhe Township and the knights from Kasha County.
Including you. With 200 Nicosacks, we can have 1,000 extraordinary knights.
If we take advantage of the 300 temple knights from the Red Copper Fortress..."
"No. Niedersall drank, but his mind was very clear, "The Temple Knights cannot move, they still have to guard against the secret party in the south. Their methods are weird and cannot be taken lightly." ”
“I didn’t think carefully. "Zelaken quickly made up for it, "They are going south soon, we are not sure..."
"Oh, instead of thinking about defense, are you going to attack me? Niedersall seemed to have heard some joke and burst out laughing.
Zelaken followed with a smile and said, "I also think they are overestimating their capabilities. According to the report, they are planning to go south on June 1st." Attacking us is ridiculous. ”
"You have quite a lot of information, is it reliable?" Niedersall asked as he picked up the ice bucket he had just washed his face with and took a sip.
“Reliable.”
“Nearly all the barbarians and magicians in the south have been killed, so there shouldn’t be any problems in a short time.” Niedersall kicked him away The little wolf who came to CengCeng said, "The troops will be sent out on June 1st. Then we will send out the troops on May 21st to catch them by surprise!"
"Yes, Your Excellency." As a member of the Ibe Knights, Ze Laken beamed with joy, "I'm going to assemble and transport food and grass."
"Hey, wait, are you allowed to leave?" Niedersall knocked on the table in dissatisfaction. He sat back in the chair like a magnet.
"I have one last question - Prince Condai, what are the current trends?"
