Chapter 428 (1/2)
”Well, if you don't tell me, I'll forget about it. I heard that the Lord of the Yongye army leader was very young, similar to little Sophia, and never married. If little Sophia married him, would we not be a family? Can't good things be shared? ”
”You sold little Sophia for the sake of these things? Don't your conscience hurt? ”
”What is selling little Sophia? Little Sophia hasn't got married yet. Aren't you in a hurry? If it were for an ordinary family, she would have been a mother of five or six children. The longer she dragged on, the fewer men would be suitable for her. Now there is one. Of course, we should hold on to it. ”
”All right, don't talk about it. The more you say it, the worse it will be. This is a military meeting. It's not about marriage leave, it's not about bandits sharing the spoils.” General Esmond waved his hand and drew a stop sign on the discussion. ”Your Majesty, is it not appropriate to leave the blood castle at this time?”
Seiderek shook his head and said: ”it's OK. Without a year and a half, this war will not develop into a full-scale war. Even if the East Odin empire is weak, it will not be broken in a single poke. Before that, it is not the best time for us to intervene in this war, but it is to coerce those bastards, otherwise we will be involved in the war, and we will have no time to pay attention to them.”
Esmond looked down, and that's the truth.
It's useless to talk morality and reason with those bastards in the south. They have the belief that they will guard the blood castle on the fracture. They don't think they do. This is not a good way.
Moreover, if they want to intervene in this war, they can't do without sufficient logistic supplies. This is the greatest sorrow of these soldiers. If they want to fight a big war, they have to go out to make friends with others first.
”If your majesty goes to the south, will you bring Arnold back by the way? This kind of large-scale war can not be without his spear.” Esmond suggested cautiously.
”Don't tell me about this asshole. If I catch him, I'll be the first to break his leg.” The eldest Duke of Cedric slapped the table and said angrily, ”this son of a bitch made a mess of things. Once he ran away, where should I put my old face? How can I face my brother when I die? ”
”Arnold did a bit too much this time.” Esmond cleared his throat and agreed with him very much. ”The former runaway was a real coward's behavior, which has disgraced the face of the streches family. However, the war matters now. When the war is over, I will personally escort him and marry Mrs. Marguerite.”
Esmond, while persuading, winked at general Pedro. This was the best time. If he did not persuade the old man, there would be no chance in the future.
Although general Pedro didn't want to be involved in the domestic affairs of the strech family, he had to say that Arnold was indeed a tiger general riding blood on the fracture. Whether he was there or not was totally different. If he was really involved in the war between the two Odin empires, he would have to rely on the other side's crazy momentum.
After a little hesitation, general Pedro also followed his tactful admonition: ”Your Majesty, this kind of thing is what you like and I want. General Arnold's temperament is not one day or two days. If Margaret is willing to have a relationship with him, she should be prepared to face this situation.”
”What? Are you still defending him? Is it difficult or am I wrong? ” Lord Cedric's eyes were wide open, and he had the posture to pour His anger on general Pedro.
General Pedro shook his head and said, ”I don't mean to defend him. I just want to say that things have already happened. What we should think about now is how to solve the problem. If general Arnold doesn't come back, Mrs. Margaret will have to hang on. Once the baby is born, it will not look good to the reputation of both families, so we should try to get them married Yes, when we have a family and a child, we will have worries. We can't let Arnold take heart. ”
”Will he take care of his son for the sake of his prodigal virtue?” Sir Cedric snorted, obviously not believing that Arnold could change so easily, but his anger was not so strong after all.
The reason why Great Duke Cedric is so angry is that Arnold has lost the face of their stretchy family this time. After all, his affairs are said to be big or small.
Although Mrs. Marguerite was married, her husband, who had been widowed for many years after the war, was not too immoral to mingle with Arnold.
The most irritating thing about Cedric was that Mrs. Margaret's husband had been with him for many years because of one of his wrong orders and died in battle.
The eldest Duke of Cedric always felt ashamed of his family. He usually took care of his family, but it turned out to be very good. His son took care of the widowed young lady in bed, and ran to him with a big belly to urge him to marry him. His old face had no place for a moment.
In addition, Arnold used to have too many bad roots. Among his many sons, he was always the most important son of Cedric. He was deeply in love and had to be severely punished in his anger.
As a result, no one was found. Arnold left early.
I don't know if I'm afraid to face the anger of Cedric, or from Mrs. suglet's get married.Whatever the reason, it is certain that his irresponsible behavior has completely angered the Archduke Cedric, who regards responsibility above everything else.
For a long time, no one dared to mention the name of Arnold in the blood castle of the fracture, for fear of infuriating the tyrant.
But Arnold's ability and reliability on the field is obvious to all.
The war is coming, and people prefer to have this lucky young god of war.
”Where is that bastard now?” Although Archduke Cedric didn't explicitly say that he would spare Arnold, his attitude undoubtedly eased a lot.
”The last time he appeared was at little Sophia's, but after being questioned by little Sophia, he showed his timidity and ran away without staying for half a day. The last time he appeared was in the city of anjibena, the leader of the Manyu army. After that, no one could see him again. There were only two possibilities: one was to go to sea by boat, the other was to enter the commander of the eternal night army.” General Esmond replied without hesitation, ”judging from his presence in anjibena, he is more likely to go to the latter.”
”Sure?” Archduke Cedric was not satisfied with general Esmond's ambiguous answer.
”There is a 90% chance that he has the best relationship with little Sophia, and he usually has more correspondence. In recent years, he has shown great interest in that new rising power in the Andes. Especially, the Yongye army leader has won the Kingsley family who used the battle artifact and the Cummings family who used the Dragon skeleton warship to join hands. He will certainly go If he doesn't get it, it's not Arnold. ” General Esmond said with a smile, ”if Arnold can get this new way of making weapons back, it will be a crime.”
”Nonsense!” Lord Cedric doesn't like to be angry.
General Esmond was stunned by the other side's abnormal reaction, and said in doubt: ”Your Majesty has seen the power of this new weapon. If it can be used on a large scale, it will definitely greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of our blood fort at the fracture. If we can get back the formula, it will definitely be a good thing. How can it be a farce?”
”The commander of Yongye army is now a firm ally of little Sophia. Little Sophia has been trying to get the formula of black powder. For reasons of confidentiality, she has never let go. Since the end of the war with Kingsley family, the world has seen the power of black powder, and began to try to push it backward. The young Lord's voice is not so tight, relying on little Sophie It is not a difficult thing to get hold of by elegant means. ” Seiderek clapped the table again. ”What kind of treacherous means does Arnold use for things that can be obtained through trade? Once discovered by the other party, how do you want me to explain? How can little Sophia explain it? To be honest, how much do you know about it? ”
It was general Esmond's turn to be silly and hesitated for a few seconds. Finally, he did not dare to hide: ”according to the sources, Arnold's information about the merchant ship led by the Yongye army was all about him. I think he wanted to enter the Yongye army leader in this way.”
”What do you want me to say? Why don't you report it to me at the first time? ” Asked Archduke Cedric, biting his teeth.
General Esmond opened his mouth and did not answer for a long time. He could not say that, master, you were angry at that time. Anyone who dares to tell you about Arnold's news can't tell you.
