Chapter 428 (2/2)
”Come on, it's none of your business.” The eldest Duke of Cedric waved his hand and said that he knew that he had a responsibility for this matter, so he should not let Arnold's little bastard run around. He didn't know how many wild animals he had left for the stretch family in the short half a year.
How can such a freak come out in the family that inherits and establishes a family in the name of knight?
Upset by Arnold's news, Lord Cedric was not in the mood to continue the military conference. He decided: ”all Rangers will cancel their sabbaticals, and they will be sent to me. They will not only keep an eye on the movements of the big tribes in the Western Odin Empire, but also those in the East Odin kingdom. This matter is still followed up by general Esmond, especially the two Dawangting, I want to know their precise location every month. ”
”Yes, your majesty.” General Esmond said in a loud voice.
”The defense of the blood fort at the fracture is up to you, general Pedro. I want every soldier and every horse to be in the best condition. Every weapon must be polished to the sharpest point. Every armor must be maintained to the strongest. You can attack at any time.”
”Yes, your majesty.” General Pedro stood up and took orders.
”General jasvis, I'll leave it to you to mobilize the military supplies. I don't care how you use it to raise at least 200000 troops for three months.”
”Yes, your majesty.” The general with a slightly depressed expression should not be aware of the natural appearance or awesome nature of the impossible task arranged by Cedric. But at this time, even if he can't finish it, he can't say a word. He only expects Cedric to go to the south to give him more strength and more supplies.
”General castle, general of the Olympic League, and patrol missions of the eastern and western border crossings will be handed over to you. I want to make sure that those soldiers are not slackened because of the lack of fighting situation in recent years, and can respond to my summoning order at any time.””Yes, your majesty.” The two young generals stood up at the same time and said.
”As for you two.” Lord Cedric did not forget that there were two temporary members at the military conference. ”You will go south with me and still command the original Rangers temporarily. You will be given a week to adjust your state and wait for my order at any time.”
”Yes, your majesty.” Captain Yale and captain Southall, who had been restless, stood up at the same time and took orders.
”Do it.” Said Archduke Cedric, waving his hand.
After a salute, the generals of the blood Castle left one after another. Only general Esmond stayed at the end and did not leave.
”Is there anything else?” Cedric looked up at his eldest son.
General Esmond hesitated for a moment and said, ”I don't know what my father wants to do, but it's not appropriate to promote a soldier like this, especially if he is still ready to take him with him. After all, he has just returned from the prairie.”
In private, the relationship between general Esmond and Archduke Cedric is less official.
”Even if there is a problem with him, it is also on the prairie. I will take them to the South and there will be no problem. As for the promotion, I haven't considered it for the time being. I'll talk about it when I come back from the south.” ”Don't worry, a little captain can't jump out of my palm even if there's something wrong with him. You're not old enough.”
”It would be nice if my father knew it.” General Esmond nodded. ”When is father going to leave for the south?”
”Fast one week, slow two weeks, no more than three weeks at the latest.” Seiderek sighed. ”We are also racing against time. There is news from vallesta that little Sophia is ready to let go and push Prince Laurie onto the stage.”
”So early?” General Esmond was shocked. ”Isn't it a year and a half before Prince Laurie officially comes of age?”
Princess Regent Sophia is now the biggest supporter of the blood castle, and if she steps down, their life will be even worse.
Not only is Sophia close enough to them, but also because she grew up in the blood castle on the fracture, she even went to the prairie with Lord Cedric in person. She is very aware of the threat of Odin orcs to Byron alliance.
When Prince Laurie came to power, everything was in the air.
Not only was the young prince unpredictable, but he was more susceptible to the rest of the Lancelot royal family.
If possible, the blood Castle side of the fracture would like Sophia to sit in this position forever.
”Little Sophia must have her own consideration when she does this, but this is the situation we have to face sooner or later, just sooner or later.” Lord Cedric was obviously more open than general Esmond. ”It's not all bad for us. At least we can get to know the young prince in advance. If there is a problem in the middle, little Sophia will be able to win more preparation time for us.”
”So my father came here not only to settle accounts with the Lords and nobles, but also to the new king?” Esmond's understanding of the Tao.
It seems that the change of the Western Odin Empire just happened at the right time. With or without the new king's news, Archduke Cedric will go to vallesta.
”That's right.” Cedric nodded, ”marrying the royal family and ensuring that there is the stretchy family blood in the royal blood is the key to maintaining the stability of the whole North. If the previous generation had problems with your sister Ariel, you can only find them back in the new generation. Let Jennifer and Beverly be prepared to go to the capital with me.”
”Jennifer and Beverly?” General Esmond looked a little embarrassed and said, ”Jennie has the orc pedigree of Odin, and Beverly is only 12 years old. I'm afraid it's not appropriate?”
Jennifer is the granddaughter of general Esmond, while Beverly is the youngest daughter of Cedric's third son.
The eldest Duke of Cedric sighed: ”the two of them are already the closest in age. Jennifer should be the most suitable candidate. However, there are so many short-sighted people in the world who can only let Beverly be the alternative choice. This is their responsibility to be born in the stretchy family.”
General Esmond could only keep silent. The unique identity of the half breed may have troubled him when he was young, but not now.
As the Great Duke Cedric told himself when he was a child, what kind of person you want to be is not determined by birth or blood, but by what you want to be.
General Esmond can now say to all the doubting eyes that he has become what he wants to be. He is not ashamed of his own blood, but proud of it. With this unique blood, he has accomplished the tasks that ordinary people have not accomplished.
Due to the increasing number of mixed blood people in the blood castle on the fracture, and their unique contribution, those rough men no longer look at them with the eyes of different kinds.
