Chapter 186: Knighthood for Knighthood

The test of the crossbow chariot was finally over, and the farce of Noah's seal disappeared, and the personnel of the workshop, including Altai and Noah, and the logistics personnel, left one after another, leaving only the operators and Higg, Blue Fairy, and Shante in this vast military restricted area.

Because it was a matter of secrecy, Shante also had to personally arrange the training of the crossbow chariot controller, and Hig and Lan Xian'er had no other important matters for the time being, so they also stayed.

"General Shante!" Lan Xian'er said: "I suggest that you double the number of people participating in the training, now there are only fifty groups each, is it a little less?" ”

Shante wondered, "What do you mean?" We asked Altai to build fifty repeater chariots in ten days, including twenty-five * chariots, twenty-five bow chariots, and will there be more chariots? Even if there are more chariots, there are only sixty or seventy vehicles that can be arranged on the city pass, and in case of emergency, the difficulty of training will be increased, and what the consequences will be, Madame will not be unclear! ”

"Of course I know!" Lan Xian'er said, "Although only sixty or seventy cars can be placed on the city pass, many cars will be damaged at least half in the first round of strikes, and even lose a lot of operators, if there is no follow-up force to keep up, it is difficult for us to persist in the continuous attack on the enemy, which not only exposes our true intentions, but also does not achieve strategic results, then the Gizcol fortress is really dangerous!" ”

Shante said puzzled. "It's not that I haven't thought about this, the number of operators has doubled, and the training workload has not doubled! Even if I intensify the training of people in a short period of time, what is the point of not having a chariot at that time? ”

Lan Xian'er smiled: "In addition to knowing the situation in your city, I also know the madness of the dwarven craftsmen, for the sake of the Hundred Immortal Fruit Wine, anything can happen!" There will be brave men under the heavy reward, Shante, I will give you another 300,000 gold coins to work for the army, except for the consumption on the city pass, I don't care what method you use, even if you don't sleep, you must double the number of chariot operators! ”

Shante perked up and immediately said, "Okay! As long as there is no problem with the number of tanks and the money is in place, I will dare to play with you! If the crossbow chariots built by the dwarven craftsmen are not operated, I am willing to be court-martialed! ”

Higg, who was left to dry, also sighed: "Eh, Ben Shuai really doesn't know, there is a smart lady, plus a capable general, and a demonic young general, what is the meaning of Ben Shuai's position as marshal......"

"Higg, do you want to pick a pick?" Shante said: "You are the key to the victory and defeat of this offense and defense!" ”

Higg and Blue Fairy asked with great interest, "What are your plans?" ”

"I need you to go to the city in person for a few days to supervise the battle!" Shante said with a smile.

Higg and Blue Fairy looked at each other, and then asked suspiciously, "And then?" If we hadn't been busy giving Altera materials for a few days, how could we not have helped you when we arrived at the fortress? ”

Shante smiled evilly and said: "Then the day before our counteroffensive was launched, our marshal was unfortunately hit by a boulder at the head of the city, and after being seriously injured, he was martyred, and the whole city mourned!" ”

Higg sneered: "What does this mean, pretending to be killed, doesn't this affect our morale, what good is it for us?" General Shante, I thought about it when you thought about it! ”

Shante completely ignored Higg's sneer, and continued: "It is true that our morale has been affected, but you can entrust some trustworthy middle and upper rank officers to tell them the plan, as long as the main position is not chaotic, our problem is not big, and the problem is the other party!" ”

"How?" Higg asked again with great interest.

Shante said: "Although some of the generals of the Giskol Fortress may not be your diehards, they still belong to the Fifth Legion after all!" But what about the other party? It's a patchwork coalition of various legions, and the contradictions between them are even more intense than ours! I ask you, do you know what the price of getting your Higg's head is? ”

"How much is my head worth?" Higg asked with a smile.

"Count for earl!" Shante said.

Higg and Blue Fairy gasped, what is the concept of the earl? Non-royal families are not crowned, that is, they are not members of the royal family, and the knighthood is to the top. Of course, that was the old statement, and now Catherine has also set up a statement that the first to enter the customs will be crowned duke. It's just that the status of the earl in everyone's minds is very transcendent, although Higg's father Alexander Michael was named a duke, but that was the posthumous honor, when he was alive, as the marshal of the Fifth Legion, he did not reach the status of an earl, and Higg's own earl title was not won by himself, but inherited from his father! One can imagine how tempting it is to exchange the title of earl for the head of the Earl of Higg!

"I believe that the other party has already found out about your arrival at the Gizcoll Fortress!" "But they know that even if you take the fortress, you Earl Higg will still run if you have feet, and you won't be able to catch you!" But if the Earl is killed, then it will be a second story. After the capture of the fortress, our defeated soldiers were fleeing for their lives, where could they care about how much this count's head was worth? But the other party is different, since they got the news of the death of the earl, do you think they can still sit still? Inevitably, you will fight for each other and mess with yourself, because whoever enters the fortress first will basically get the title of earl! It's a pity that they could only fight separately at that time, and they wouldn't work together. We took the opportunity to break the opponent's catapult phalanx with a repeater chariot and make the other party even more chaotic, hehe, the rest of the vegetable cutting matters will be handed over to General Ben and me! ”

Higg said angrily: "How can it only be handed over to you, won't Ben Shuai resurrect the corpse, go deep into the enemy camp, and catch a few generals who want to exchange Ben Shuai's head for the title of earl?" ”

"Hehe, at that time, I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to care about killing the enemy, so let's stabilize your rear first!" Lan Xian'er smiled, "Those generals of yours are not honest masters, it is impossible for them not to know the news of exchanging an earl for an earl, do you dare to guarantee that the other party will not buy our people and do something that should be done inside and outside?" ”

"Hmph, Shante, you're cheap! But you were originally sent by His Majesty to pan for gold, and of course the military merits belong to you! Higg hung his head and said, "It's all to blame for that old guy Arad, who set the price of Ben Shuai's head so high, Ben Shuai really has to be guarded against being cut down and taken to receive a reward, so how can Ben Shuai sleep peacefully!" ”

Shante smiled evilly: "Seriously, even I have been moved!" ”

Higg smiled: "The earl returned the earl's price, I don't believe you have been moved, but if your majesty doesn't give you a penny and wants to take my head, I still believe that you will think about it, hehe!" ”

"Nonsense!" Shante hurriedly said, "Okay, how could Your Majesty want your head!" ”

"It's not impossible, it's just not now!"

……

Late at night, Blue Fairy snuggled up to Higg's arms and asked slowly, "What do you really think of Shante?" When you first came out of the Valley of Flowers, it seems that you promised to assist you, but you didn't give up your pursuit of the queen, and it seems that it is the same now! Do you really think that one day, Shante will attack you? ”

"You also believe that the queen will ask for my head?" Higg asked rhetorically, "I haven't figured out why Catherine did it to me yet!" ”

"It's hard to say!" Lan Xian'er said, "You are in the limelight now, and you don't know how to converge!" If you are too powerful and do not obey the king's orders, or if Your Majesty himself thinks that you may lose control of you, it is very likely that he will find an opportunity to attack you, just like your father, what is the truth about the death of your parents? Is Arad fully responsible for your father's death? Not necessarily, without Catherine's instructions, Arad would have been able to go so smoothly in the face of your father's conflict? But not blatantly, so, Shante is her best choice! ”

"I also suspect that there should be a shadow of Catherine in my father's death!" "There are too many points to explain!" Higg said. My father and mother are not stupid, if it is Arad's conspiracy, it is impossible not to have any clues, and it is impossible for my father and mother not to be wary of Arad! In other words, it cannot be ruled out that it is possible that Catherine's worries are caused by the self-respect of the army, coupled with the malicious slander of Arad and others, which accumulate day by day, and take advantage of my father's loyalty to the empire to arrange a series of conspiracies! Therefore, for us, strength is capital, and being too strong will also bring you death, which is a double-edged sword! Although I am not enough to rebel against Catherine, I will not be as foolish and loyal to Catherine as my father, and the sword is in my hand, and I will never be slaughtered! ”

"Your parents' affairs will be investigated one day!" "But you have to be careful of Catherine, she can't be unclear about your inner thoughts!" ”

"Hmph, it's just mutual use!" "So Catherine sent Santer to the Fifth Legion!" Higg said. Shante is her best candidate, because only if he is in the Fifth Legion, I will not be so resistant, and only Shante can get real power here and enter the core position of the Fifth Legion! Catherine wanted Sander to supervise me, and if possible, to control a part of the Fifth Legion! Hehe, Catherine herself believes too much in her personal charm, people will change, and I believe that Shante will too! ”

"You're so confident?" Lan Xian'er asked suspiciously.

"If the queen orders my head now, Shante will consider doing it!" "But after a few years, Shante won't have a chance, in other words, Shante won't be loyal to the queen at all!" ”

"Shante, you don't know this person?" Lan Xian'er said, "How could he change his loyalty to the Queen? Why are you so sure? ”

Higg smiled: "Hehe, because you are more attractive than Catherine, the image of the goddess in his mind will no longer be Catherine, but the goddess of the Blue Fairy!" ”

"Huh!" Lan Xian'er smiled, "Then aren't you more dangerous, aren't you afraid that he will snatch love?" ”

Higg sneered: "Shante's understanding of the goddess is very simple - you can only watch from a distance, not play with it!" I'm different, not only to look from afar, but also to see closely, and play profane when I have time! ”

As he spoke, his right hand unhonestly reached into Lan Xian'er's belly pocket and said, "Don't talk about these things, now let's talk about the creation of people......

"Eh...... Badass ......"
