Chapter 134: Encounter is worse than chance encounter

Chapter 134: Meeting by chance

In the era when Apia and Butani were two completely independent countries, Rebek was the most important garrison fortress town on the border of the Principality of Butani.

At that time, the Duchy of Butani had heavy troops stationed here, and the fortress was continuously improved and repaired, and it was built into a steel fortress composed of stones and various killing machinery.

Since the marriage between the two countries, the garrison here has been transferred and gradually changed to civilian castles. Since this is the most important city on the transaction channel between the Duchy of Butani and the north, it has quickly become prosperous.

Now, this place is occupied by the Holy War of the Holy Sect of Light. To the north are the army of the Apia Kingdom, and there is no way out to retreat to the south. General Xiute mobilized 60,000 brave and warlike regular troops to block there. They already knew the drastic changes that have taken place in the public.

The once mighty Holy War regiment is now like an abandoned baby. If it weren't for the two deputy commanders of the Glorious Knights, this army would have disintegrated long ago.

For the United Kingdom, the Holy War clan relies on this very steep fortress. If the city is forcibly siege, there will be too much casualties. Therefore, the troops of Apia and Butani are surrounded and not fighting, hoping to force the Holy War clan to surrender and minimize losses.

However, this city was too rich. Since it was an important channel for grain transportation in the north and south, many large merchants built hundreds of granaries here, and all of these grains fell into the hands of the Holy War Chapter. If the Holy War Chapter could not be defended, it would not be a problem for the previous year, so they refused to surrender.

They knew that they were a lonely army here, but they were not alone in this world. The Duchy of Butani announced that the Holy Church of Light was a cult, and the news of the blatant search for members of the Knights had spread, and the Pope Nishi must have known it.

The energy of the Holy Church of Light is so huge. They not only control the Ross Empire in the West, but also penetrate many monarchies of the Tagore Empire. They have a considerable influence in the upper class. As long as it takes a few months, the Pope will use various principalities to put pressure on the new United Kingdom through negotiations and persuasion. Their armed forces will have the hope of leaving safely or even counterattacking.

The United Kingdom naturally knew their plans. Since they could not surrender, they would have to fight a tough battle and quickly conquer the last fortress of the Holy Church of Light in the Duchy of Butani. Therefore, Jedisaker came, and with him were Paladin Gantis, General Shiut and Priestess Salice.

Gantis has regained his reputation. Jady designed to frame him because he didn't have time to argue with this reputable elder. If the old man's stubborn mind was understood, I hope the Goddess Cult would have disappeared long ago.

The current situation proves that if it weren't for Jedi, Picasso and others who improved their teachings in time and their strength increased greatly before the Holy Church of Light was determined to take action, then now I hope that the Divine Cult will not only be a winner, but also a wanted rat crossing the street.

Facts are better than words. Even though Master Gantis still insists on seeing him, he cannot influence the believers of the Gods to oppose it. Therefore, Jady restored his reputation for him. The public publicity was that this scene of slaughtering was just because someone intended to be unfavorable to the queen. The Knights needed a secret force that was not mastered by the other party to protect the queen's safety.

That's why I designed this scene and "detained" him in prison. However, I hope that the top leaders of the Divine Cult will naturally understand the truth. Garfield, Canary and other elders were moved and relieved, and were very annoyed by the courage of these three young people. On the one hand, they admitted that the decision of these young people saved the Divine Cult, but they were very dissatisfied with their framing of a respected elder.

However, Gantis knew very well that although they had caused harm to himself, he was a great hero to the Hope God Cult. He was unwilling to hurt the hearts of these three young people, so he took the initiative to ask to come with Jady to help him conquer Rebek City to improve the relationship between the two sides.

As the most important fortress of the Duchy of Butani in the north, the city of Rebec is also a hub for exchanges and contacts with the tribes in the north. Its architectural style is simple and practical.

The gate facing the main body to the south of the castle is a castle-like building made of huge stones. On the tall and spectacular city tower stands a statue of a warrior, wearing heavy armor, holding a sword with both hands, and a solemn and mighty face, which makes people intimidate.

The wall facing the public that does not require defense is still so steep, and the rock-solidity of the wall and castle on the other side can be imagined.

General Shute was the commander of the three armies for granted, but he was very polite to Jady. Although Jady did not have a military position, his ability and influence were destined to be unorthodox. Moreover, the soldiers who replaced the Queen's Mansion were his confidants, and the ambiguous relationship between Jady and the Queen made him more and more informed through the soldiers' mouths.

This time, the queen named Jadei to participate in the victorious battle to encircle and suppress the remnants of the Light Holy War Chapter. It was obvious that she wanted to give him a great military merit. General Xiute was determined to establish a good relationship with each other, so he was responsible for the planning and preparation of the war. Anyway, he had his own control. Even if Jadei was completely a layman, this victorious battle would not be messed up.

At this moment, Jady stood on the top of the mountain, observing the movements in Rebek City from a high place. The terrain here is relatively high, and although the things in the city are too specific can't be seen clearly, with his eyesight, it is not difficult to see clearly the deployment of troops in the city.

The wind is very strong today, but Jady likes this feeling very much. The wind blows on his body and keeps seeping into countless pores all over his body, making it feel indescribable. If Master Gantis hadn't been beside him, he would have whistled up to his head, making the "Ao~~~~~" sound that he hadn't yelled for a long time echoed in the valleys of the mountains...

"Master, look, the one on the city on the left should have at least six arrow towers and dozens of heavy wooden stents, just like on the right. However, since it was changed to civilians, many military facilities have been demolished. It is now a flat land, and it should be rented to merchants to store goods. It is now temporarily cleared out, but the equipment to defend the city is obviously insufficient and it is difficult to form great lethality.

Moreover, most of the men of the Knights of the Jihad are traditional knights, and it is okay to let them charge, but they are not real soldiers. They neither can build and install large city defense equipment, nor are they familiar with the offense and defense of the city. Therefore, I think our army should use this area as the main attack point."

Gantis nodded and said, "The moat under the city is too wide, and it may be difficult to put the ladder directly on the top of the city."

Jady said confidently: "This is easy. General Xiute's army has been besieging the city for so long. I believe he has already prepared to attack the city. He uses the river chariot to frame the moat, and uses crossbows and stone throwing chariots to cover the three armies. He uses hook ladders, cloud ladders and Xuan chariots to attack the city at the same time. Using this place as a breakthrough point, it is not difficult to capture this city."

A strange light flashed in Gantis's eyes. The Queen intended to give Jedi a credit. He had long guessed this thought, but in fact he didn't agree with it. He thought that Jedi could be an outstanding leader of the escort, but he might not be an outstanding general.

A woman falls in love with a man, but she cannot hide it from the closest people around her. Gantis and the other two elders have seen the queen's thoughts and are happy to witness the union of the two.

But he thought that the Queen was a bit nepotist in doing this. Unexpectedly, Jady was not only familiar with urban offensive and defense, but also with various siege equipment. These things are simple, but ordinary people would never understand these siege equipment.

At this moment, he was convinced: "Jeddy, this city is almost unattainable, and the defenders in the city cannot take over. If I come to command the city, I will not find a second weakness to take advantage of. Do I really underestimate you, or does Her Majesty the Queen have vision!"

Jady couldn't help but feel embarrassed when she heard this. He said that he knew about marching and fighting, attacking and defending, which was all Helen's credit. Of course, they could not only weaken the enemy, but they would definitely gather people to fight a few bad battles in the future. Therefore, Helen has often instilled some military knowledge in him.

After a hand-to-hand battle between the two in the boudoir, Chunguang often deduces war games. Combined with Jedi's own well-versed wolf pack tactics, he would naturally be confident in fighting such a battle where only attacks are needed without scruples.

"Well, let's go down the mountain and talk to General Sult. After all, he is a professional soldier. If he agrees, he will take down Rebek as soon as possible. Once this city is captured, the final hidden danger will be eliminated."

Gantis said, walking down the mountain with Jady, more than ten guards scattered in front and behind, guarding them. At this moment, the dwarf pine bushes next to the mountain road suddenly sounded "very rippled". Two pine trees were one after another, and two people suddenly walked out.

A tall old man in front of him was wearing a cloth dress and a shiny steel axe was inserted into his waist towel, like a woodcutter. Behind him was a young man, like his nephew, who was born elegant and elegant.

Suddenly seeing more than ten soldiers, the old man was startled and wanted to retreat, but he was stared at by so many soldiers holding the sword and did not dare to move. After hesitating for a moment, he showed a timid and flattering smile on his face, and explained embarrassedly: "I...I am from this mountain..."

Before he finished speaking, Master Gantis suddenly laughed. He shook his head and said, "Maybe, you were once a glorious knight, and you should challenge me directly. Since you want to disguise yourself as a woodcutter, you should catch me off guard. Now you are neither willing to give up the opportunity nor the courage to challenge face to face. You are neither a qualified knight nor a qualified assassin. It is ridiculous to go through the dilemma!"

The man couldn't help but blush when he said it. This time he sneaked out of Rebek City, and in fact he was going up the mountain to observe the deployment of Butani's army. Because they already knew that General Sult and the two paladins of the Blood Rose Knights arrived, the stalemate that had been around was about to be broken.

But when they climbed up the mountain, they unexpectedly found that someone was observing the other party. Seeing them standing on the mountain and pointing fingers, they must be the general in the army. The old man immediately became interested, but he was indeed not determined to challenge him head-on or cover up his identity and sneak attack.

Now that Gantis said it, he couldn't help but blush. The thick-boned hand subconsciously touched the handle of the axe on his waist...

Gantis's smile also became cold, and his palms tightly held the sword, but his eyes did not stare at the tall and burly old man, but fell on the hand of the young man behind him who looked a little weak and delicate...

Logically speaking, he was an elder, and Jady didn't let Gantis take action first. But strangely, not only did he wave his hands to prevent the soldiers from coming forward, he also sat down calmly on the rocks beside him, smiling as if he really planned to watch the wall.

The battle was about to break out, but the performances of several people were all inexplicably strange...

"Queen, Lord Dolores, Lord Canileri, why are you here?" Picasso really wondered in his heart that Queen Elizabeth and the two Paladins welcomed into his living room.

The queen was wearing casual clothes, without the graceful and luxurious spirit, and she looked a bit like when she was his little maid, playing and cute.

"It's nothing. The kingdom is much more stable now. It's the first time I've come out here in these days to relax." The queen smiled in the room with her hands behind her back, and sat down at the table with her two deer-skinned braids. Seeing Picasso standing there, she couldn't help but smile: "Sit, this is your mansion, not your mansion, why bother so restraining?"

"Oh!" Picasso sat down in confusion. He didn't believe that the queen was visiting him specifically. But if he said he missed Jady, what should he do here?

In fact, when he was in the mirror and looked at himself in the quiet night, he felt that he had many advantages as he looked at him. Why did this queen have a special liking for Jady? Is it really a married man who is more attractive?

"I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out..." Picasso shook his head and fell into memories, but heard the queen say, "Why, don't you want to drink?"

"Hmm? Oh, thank you Queen!" Picasso came to his senses and saw that the queen poured him a cup of tea. He quickly took it in surprise. The teacup had just been delivered to his mouth. Suddenly, he remembered the incident that he had scalded his tongue and had diarrhea. He lowered the teacup with lingering fear and said dryly: "The Queen is really nothing important to visit today?"

"It's a bit of a thing, but it's not a big deal."

Queen Elizabeth said lightly, looking at Picasso with a pair of wonderful eyes, until she was almost furious, and said sweetly: "Mr. Picasso, since you served as the deputy commander of the Rose Knights, you have performed very well. Now that the civil strife has subsided, the three masters of Gantis are old and cannot work for academic affairs all year round, so... I would like to propose that you be the head of the Blood Rose Knights. What do you think?"

Picasso turned the teacup in his hand and said in surprise: "Me? What about...Jedy?"

Elizabeth's face turned red slightly: "You know, I have now won over the former Butani military, but no one who can trust is not safe after all. Jady is very prestige here. I want him to serve as the captain of the royal guard and the chief of the city defense. In this way, the Rose Knights will have to be carried by you."

Picasso secretly cried out: "It seems that the queen is not only admiring Jedi, she also wants to tie Jedi around her. Originally, it would be nice to have a lover occasionally adjust the sex, especially... the queen!"

Picasso swears: "But what should I do if my sister comes here? That girl is really in love with Jade, but she still thinks she is acting. Jade has a wife, which is not easy to deal with. If the queen entangles him again...will that sister not even drink soup?

I don't want her to rush to drink this soup, but with that girl's temperament, she would not give up. If something goes wrong..."

Picasso scratched his head, his eyes dripped around. He was thinking about the excuse to dispel the queen's idea. Suddenly, a guard hurried into the door and clasped his fists and said, "Sir, there are a few beautiful ladies outside the door who want to see you."

This guard was sent to Picasso's mansion by the Principality of Butani. He had never seen Queen Elizabeth's appearance. Today, the queen was wearing casual clothes, so she didn't know her identity.

Such a charming woman would be blessed with endless beauty. Unexpectedly, the few guests who just came outside the door were not inferior to her. This soldier was really envious.

"What beautiful lady? Didn't you see me have any important guests? No, no!" Picasso waved his hand quickly.

There are many nobles and officials arrested these days. The Tagore Empire did not have a law of plagiarism and was not as guilty as the family, so the family was safe and sound. So these noble ladies brought great gifts and visited the officials who are now speaking one by one, in order to save their husbands or fathers.

Therefore, Picasso's mansion is crowded these days, and there are quite a few noble ladies who come to see him. He thought he was this kind of person again, so he waved his hand to refuse.

"But... those beautiful ladies said that they came from afar and said that they would come in when you meet in front of the mansion."

"Hmm? What a big sigh!" Picasso glared.

Queen Elizabeth smiled and said, "What a beautiful lady? How beautiful it is, please invite them in!"

The soldier went to see Picasso. When he saw the queen speaking, he said, "Go and let them in."

Elizabeth joked: "Sir Picasso, Orthia is still waiting for you in the city of Amedi, you can't be outside... Otherwise, not only the Grand Priest Garfield will not forgive you, I will not let it go. Orthia is my best friend."

Picasso smiled dryly and said, "How can I do it? I don't know any of these women who came to me. They...they...they..."

Picasso looked straight at the group of people walking past the door, as if he was caught in evil, and could not even say a complete sentence.
