Chapter 571: Kroger's counterattack
"General Kroger, what the hell are you trying to do!!"
Montgomery slapped him on the desk and stared coldly at the burly General Kroger in front of him. It's no wonder he's so angry, it was originally a headache to change the defensive line, but he struggled to suppress those people, but he didn't expect that only two days later, there would be chaos in Eternal Winter City again. General Kroger of the Legion of the Glorious Nation has declared that they will not leave their current station, refusing the Templar's change of guard. This made Montgomery also extremely angry, originally said that it was good, but now why do these guys regret it?
What made Montgomery most unhappy was that as soon as the Glorious Nation took the lead, the other legions that had already complained about it did not move. Not only that, but since Montgomery's transfers are a series of moves, if the Shining Nation does not move, then it means that the subsequent series of transfers will be completely stuck. At this point in time, the Legion of the Glorious Nation is simply committing suicide!!
"I don't accept !!"
And General Kroger, who was standing in front of him, a barbarian general in size, was not a good stubble, and his roar even cracked the glass in Montgomery's study, so that those outside could hear what he was saying clearly without lying in the corner.
"What are you not convinced? Didn't you say before, you were going to transfer the legion to Polka? ”
Seeing that General Kroger was so angry, Montgomery also felt a little strange, he had said that he was going to Polka, although it was indeed a bit of a toss to say that he was not in Neverwinter. But in fact, he wasn't the only one leaving Neverwinter. Montgomery knew the human heart very well, until if he was the only one who was unlucky, then General Kroger would have some reason to come up and complain. But the problem is that now that three-quarters of the legions are leaving Eternal Winter City, and everyone is unlucky, what else does he have to complain about?
Montgomery had used this argument to convince others before. You see, it's not just you who are unlucky, everyone is the same, let's balance your mind, and if you balance it, you will go to work.
But now............
"I did say yes at the time, but I'm going to ask you. Did you say before that all the legions have to change their defenses!? ”
"That's right."
Hearing General Kroger's question, Montgomery nodded. Hearing Montgomery's answer, Kroger suddenly slammed the table hard, and smashed a deep hole in the table.
"So, why doesn't Everfree Harbor have to change its guards!!"
"Endless Harbor?"
Montgomery did a lot of calculations, but he didn't expect Kroger to ask this. He looked at Kroger with a puzzled expression, wondering if something had kicked him in the head.
"Hasn't Everfree Harbor changed its guard? The Angus Paladins only came back a few days ago? ”
"Ahem........."
Hearing Montgomery's rhetorical question of "purity", Kroger's face suddenly turned red. When he spoke before, he only thought that Endless Harbor had not made any moves in this change of defense, but he forgot that Endless Harbor had already completed the change of defense before this. At this time, he didn't know what to say, but he didn't come to Xingshi to ask about the crime this time, and it wasn't based on this. So Kroger just blushed, then coughed, and turned the question around.
"I just want to ask you, Grand Knight Montgomery, is that bastard from Passus here!?"
"yes."
Montgomery was not a fool. Hearing Kroger ask, he immediately understood what the problem was. Let's be honest. Montgomery was mentally prepared for the reaction of the Legion of the Shining Nation. Kroger himself was a die-hard royal, and when he heard the news, he was clamoring to leave. Not only that, but at that time, due to the issue of the Shining Royal Family, the Templar Order also conducted a review of the Glorious Nation Legion to prevent undead spies among them. All of this made Kroger very unhappy. After that. The position of the Glorious Nation Legion on the front line has never been very good, originally Montgomery thought that they would go back, but he didn't expect Kroger's bullish temper to stay. According to him, they were here to fend off the undead anyway, and it wasn't their tradition to walk away now!
I have to admit it. Life for the Legion of the Glorious Nation after that was indeed difficult, though Montgomery did not treat them differently because of it. But what happened in the Shining Nation would inevitably affect them, and because of this, Montgomery had been wondering if there was a way to get these troublesome guys away.
But now.........
"We have only one request, and that is that bastard of Passus must leave the Chaos Coast!!"
"It can't be."
Montgomery refused the other party's request without even thinking about it.
"I don't have that power."
"You don't have that power?"
Hearing Montgomery's answer, the barbarian-looking general immediately laughed.
"Don't think Lao Tzu doesn't know, he was sent by your Templar Order, and now, you tell me you don't have that power!? Do these bastards of the Templar think that there is no one left in our Glorious Country!! ”
As he spoke, the barbarian general slammed the table in front of him with all his might. I only heard a "boom", and the next moment the desk in front of Montgomery completely fell apart. Montgomery, however, only frowned at this scene.
"To tell you the truth, I don't really have that power. General Kroger, as you know, I'm only in charge of the military. But the lord is really not in my hands. It doesn't matter who you go to, unless you find the Supreme Council, I can't do anything. ”
As he spoke, Montgomery spread his hands helplessly. Kroger looked at him with a gloomy face, expecting that he would be able to force Montgomery to make some concessions in this regard. But looking at Montgomery now, it seems that he has no way to meddle in the affairs over there. If that's the case, then I won't be able to achieve the purpose of coming here this time, but ......... Thinking of this, General Kroger suddenly showed a sinister smile. I don't know why, seeing this smile, Montgomery suddenly felt a little uneasy.
"That is, if something happens to him, you can't control it?"
"Of course."
Hearing Kroger's inquiry, Montgomery was silent for a moment, but finally nodded and replied. Hearing Montgomery's answer, Kroger was silent for a moment, and then he grinned maniacally. Seeing his expression, Montgomery's heart sank slightly. In fact, when Kroger asked himself this question, Montgomery knew what he wanted to do.
"Good, good......... Very good!! ”
At this, Kroger suddenly let out an angry roar, and then he straightened up and looked at Montgomery.
"Then Grand Knight Montgomery, we'll leave now, but we won't go to the polka, you can hire someone else."
With that, Kroger laughed and turned around and walked out of the room. Watching Kroger's figure leave, Montgomery was silent for a moment, and then sighed helplessly.
"Your Excellency, why didn't you dissuade him?"
At this time, Montgomery's deputy also walked in, and looking at the mess in front of him, he frowned and asked worriedly.
"Everyone knows that General Kroger has a deep hatred for the lord of Passus, and if you don't stop it, they ........."
"Can I stop it?"
Faced with the deputy's questioning, Montgomery showed a wry smile.
"You all know that General Kroger hates that lord to the core, what do I have to say? Can I persuade to stay? Forget it, solve their own problems, go and solve them themselves. As long as it doesn't affect the overall situation, where do I have the leisure to care so much now? Since the legion of the Glorious Nation has withdrawn, let the Silver Sword go through it first, and then I'll figure out a way........."
"Knock knock knock ......!!"
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps, and then I saw a paladin running up out of breath.
"No, it's not good!! Excellency!! Something is wrong!! ”
"What's wrong?"
Seeing this paladin's nervous appearance, Montgomery couldn't help frowning, and at the same time felt a little uneasy in his heart. Could it be that the undead army attacked at this time? If that's the case, then it's bad. But according to my own calculations, it won't be so fast. And I only checked it yesterday, and there is no sign of the undead army nearby!
"That's right, the Legion of the Glorious Nation has just set off, and I heard that they are going to launch an all-out attack on the Endless Harbor!!"
"What?"
Hearing this, even Montgomery's face couldn't help but change greatly, he already knew that Kroger would definitely not just forget it. But even Montgomery didn't think he would privately send a few people to trouble the other party. As for what he said before, Montgomery just thought that the other party didn't plan to stay here, but if he left, he would leave, and he couldn't stop it.
But Montgomery didn't expect Kroger to be so crazy, and directly open the army to the rhythm of all-out war!!
"Why didn't you stop him?"
"We stopped, but we didn't! General Kroger has already spoken, and whoever dares to stop him will die. Someone tried to stop it before, but he killed him! Others don't dare to step forward at all!! ”
Hearing this, Montgomery couldn't hold back any longer. He didn't expect Kroger to be crazy to this point, if it continued like this, what would happen to this side of the Chaos Coast? If there is a mess, won't your previous arrangements be finished?
"Order the whole city of Neverwinter to be on alert, and we will go to the Endless Harbor too!" (To be continued.) )
