From pioneer lord to king

Chapter 174 Hope everything is still in time 【4K】

Cheers was surprised and delighted after seeing Ryan and others, and even Baron John, who was not very popular with him, became amiable.

"That's great Lei, it's a blessing among many misfortunes to be able to see you." Cheers was full of emotion in his heart, but in a short period of time, the entire Turtle County has undergone earth-shaking changes, how can it not be embarrassing ah.

Ryan could see Chelsea's pretending to be relaxed at a glance, and he saw a sense of fatigue in him that he had never seen before.

After deliberating for a while, he said, "How is the current situation on the main battlefield?"

Cheers stared at him for a while, sighed and said: "It's bad, it's very bad. A few nights ago, Earl William suddenly rebelled, and his troops stormed the camps of various legions. We also took advantage of the situation to counterattack, and our losses were heavy.

The Judgment Legion of the Holy See was directly abolished. The ten main legions lost more than one-sixth, and the troops under the command of the other nobles also lost a lot. If the Hurricane Knights hadn't turned the tide at the critical moment, whether we can still meet here is a matter of two. explain. "

Ryan's heart skipped a beat. Those ten main armies were truly elite, and the army under Ryan's command was completely incomparable. After all, it was a powerful army against the frontier army, and the loss was too great.

"Then now..."

Seeming to see Ryan's eagerness, Cheers forced a smile and said: "Don't worry, His Royal Highness has re-stabilized the defense line and is gathering strength to prepare for a counterattack. We still have a chance."

Ryan was slightly relieved when he heard the words, Cheers would not comfort him with such a thing, he had to give a thumbs up to the Grand Duke who had never seen him before.

In the case of Earl William's rebellion, he was able to stabilize the line of defense and prepare to counterattack, which is enough to show his superb military quality.

But when he thought of the information learned from the memory of the Holy Lord, the smile on Ryan's face became a little stiff, and he was silent for a while and said: "Can you take me to see His Royal Highness, I have important information here."

Cheers' expression suddenly became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Do you have to see His Royal Highness? The pressure on His Royal Highness is beyond imagination. If your information value is not enough, you may be punished."

Ryan met his eyes, nodded heavily and said: "This matter must be seen by His Royal Highness, the importance of information is related to the life and death of hundreds of thousands of troops!"

"Okay, I'll ask Earl Donald." Seeing Ryan's firm expression, Cheers also gave enough support, and he didn't ask what the information was. He knew that Ryan would have told him if he could.

On the way back, Ryan suddenly asked: "How many nobles who implemented the blockade plan have returned?"

Cheers stiffened for a moment, and said dejectedly: "You are the second team to return to the team. After Earl William's rebellion, we sent an emergency team to respond, but it was a step too late, and the city has been completely occupied. Most of the garrison and nobles in the city were wiped out."

Although he knew this was the result, Ryan was still shocked. The army stationed in the city was at least 10,000+ people. Except for almost half of the rebels, there were tens of thousands of troops and dozens of nobles!
"How did you rush out? The organizational system is so intact." Cheers had wanted to ask this question for a long time. After all, Ryan and his party still have a small 3000 people. You must know that only 1000 people are left in the first team to return to the team. There are many people.

"If you say that we are also lucky..." So Ryan briefly explained the cause and effect of the incident. Of course, he did not say that he killed Blaise himself, but focused on describing Gabriel's ambush for them.

Cheers took a deep look at him, but he didn't say anything after all. He already had a rough guess in his mind about how Blaise died, but he didn't intend to find out the truth. He could still decide how to choose...

After they arrived at the city where the army was stationed, Cheers was the first to take him to see Earl Donald. When he heard that he wanted to see the Grand Duke, he was very reluctant. After all, the Grand Duke's time and energy are precious now.

But after Ryan stated his interests, he finally compromised and expressed his willingness to take Ryan to see His Royal Highness, but he had to bear the consequences himself.

Ryan has nothing to do, this information is very important, it is impossible for him not to say, it is not his consideration to believe it or not.

Following Earl Donald, after many examinations and inquiries, he finally arrived outside the tent of Grand Duke Douglas, surrounded by powerful knights riding Hurricane Wolves.

Ryan secretly admired, this is the Hurricane Knights, one of the ace troops of the Kingdom of Tistan, the knights of the water, really inhumane.

"Go in by yourself in a while, remember the noble etiquette, and don't offend the Grand Duke, otherwise no one will be able to save you, understand?" Earl Donald stopped in his tracks and said seriously.

"Understood, thank you for leading the way." Ryan nodded, and then followed a knight into the tent.

It was also on this day that Ryan met the legendary Grand Duke of the Southern Territory for the first time.

That majestic figure was sitting in front of a desk. Although the current situation was critical, his face was still as calm as water, without the slightest anxiety, which made Ryan's restless heart calm down.

In that body, Ryan felt a powerful force that he had never felt before. He was like a towering mountain, and just sitting there quietly made Ryan feel unattainable.

When he came in, Douglas also stopped what he was doing and looked at him majesticly.

"This is the Grand Duke of the South!" Ryan was a little excited. This is a character in the story, and his legendary life is not enough to express in words.

Ryan stepped forward and gave a standard knight salute, and said in a respectful tone: "I praise you, the great guardian of the southern border, the pioneer of the kingdom, [Celter Eagle], the legendary knight... Marshal of the kingdom, Your Highness Douglas. Card Baron Naling, Ryan Ray Black salutes you!"

Douglas nodded lightly, and said in a serious tone: "Baron Black, it is said that you have brought important information concerning the safety of the entire army?"

"Yes, Your Highness."

"If your information is really that important, I will personally ask His Majesty for your credit after the battle. If you dare to lie or exaggerate, then I will personally send you to the noble court." Douglas' tone was flat, but his eyes Staring at Ryan made him feel stressed.

Ryan didn't answer his words, but said straight to the point: "Your Highness, my information is that those cultists are planning to hold evil sacrifices with the blockade plan as the main body.

They massacred the civilians in the whole city as sacrifices, planning to build a huge evil formation covering the entire Tert County to wipe out our army, and it may be in the final stage now. "

Douglas folded his arms, looked at him calmly and said, "What else?"

Looking at his facial expression, Ryan was a little uncertain about the thoughts of His Royal Highness, did he believe it or not?

After pondering for a while, Ryan finally gritted his teeth and planned to increase his bargaining chips. He said word by word: "That evil formation can make the power of evil gods come down to the mortal world!"

Douglas' eyes finally changed a little, but he was still very calm, and said calmly, "What is your source of information?"

So Ryan retold the story he had told Chelsea, but this version had more details and more lies, especially the scene of the attack at the city gate.

In his mouth, he witnessed the massacre of civilians by the rebels, and saw the altar used for sacrifice, because they also encountered two days and two nights of hunting.

He was assassinated by a cultist some time ago because he saw the plan of the rebels and claimed that the cultist planned to take him after the assassination failed, but he was so powerful that he won in the end and "saw" part of it. Cultists' memories.

These words are true or false, nine points are true, and only one point has been processed by Ryan's art, so he has no psychological pressure to say it, and is very sure of the accuracy of the content.

In order to improve his persuasiveness, he also slightly revealed his powerful soul power in front of Douglas, and said that he could turn over the corpses of the cultists as evidence.

After this wave of operations, Douglas believed [-]% to [-]% of Ryan's words. He suddenly smiled and said to Ryan: "Actually, I have heard of your name, you are very good, Baron Black, I will tell you what you want to say." Got it, you can go to rest, if the information is true, I will give you great credit."

This can be regarded as a direct eviction order, and Ryan naturally did not dare to refute. The other party is a dignified prince, and it is already a great honor for the other party to take the time to meet this small role of himself, and he cannot be shameless.

He bowed respectfully and retreated, and finally, led by a Hurricane Wolf Knight, he left this area, which can be called the core area of ​​the noble coalition forces.

On the way, he carefully reviewed his performance, and he was relieved only after he found that there was nothing wrong.Douglas said he had heard of him, but he had some guesses, it should be because of the military exploits he reported last time.

Seeing Earl Donald waiting anxiously outside, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute and say hello, and said that everything went well, which made him feel relieved and took Ryan back to the camp...

After Ryan left, Douglas suddenly said to the empty tent: "Do you think what he said is credible?"

A thin old man in a black robe emerged from the corner of the big tent, and said in an old voice: "There is no problem with his origin and origin. I also checked his consciousness space just now, and found nothing abnormal. His soul has not fluctuated greatly, and he has not found any problems for the time being."

Douglas nodded thoughtfully. As the Grand Duke of One Realm, he naturally couldn't listen to Ryan's words so easily. As the saying goes, one general is incompetent and exhausts the entire army. These means are necessary.

"Go down to check the authenticity of what he said in the information, remember, keep it a little more concealed."

"I obey, Your Highness." The black-robed man responded respectfully, then merged with the shadow under his feet and disappeared...

Cheers was very happy that Ryan came back with all his beard and tail. After all, in the current situation, once His Royal Highness is offended, it is very likely that he will have to sing coolly.

"You must be very tired. Go and rest first. Your army is temporarily divided into independent troops. I will notify you of any combat missions."

After Ryan took the order, he followed a knight under Chelsea's command back to the temporary station, but he didn't expect that all the soldiers under his command were holding a big bowl and sucking it. When they walked in, it turned out to be vegetable soup, and there was still a faint stew in it. Rotten pork.

Nearly 3000 people in the entire army have a bowl, and they eat it with black bread with less impurities.

Ryan was immediately surprised. It seems that the food arrangement here is not bad?
He looked at the young knight who was guiding him and said, "Is this the normal meal for the troops?"

His original intention was to confirm the following, but it made the knight think that Ryan was not satisfied with this arrangement, and he quickly explained: "My lord, after Earl William rebelled, we lost part of our food supply.

So at present, the army can only provide one bowl of vegetable soup and one pound of black bread for each meal. Please forgive me, the difficulties are only temporary, and we will give soldiers extra meals every three days. "

Looking at the apologetic young knight, Ryan suddenly felt that he didn't know what to say. Although this kind of meal standard was a little worse than usual, it was far beyond his expectations. There was a shortage of food, but he was overthinking again.

The words in his throat were choked back abruptly by him, and he forced a smile: "It's okay, we can understand."

Looking at the bowl of vegetable soup with oily flowers floating in it, Ryan had to lament once again the means of His Royal Highness, how to maintain such a high standard of food in this situation...

At this time, the man in black returned to Douglas again, and said that everything Ryan said was true.

Although he didn't know what methods he used, Douglas obviously trusted the man in black. He stood up, walked to a huge and detailed military map, and said softly: "That's right. , I said why the rebels began to shrink back again during this period of time. It turned out that such a big gift was prepared for us.

You go there tonight. I currently suspect that this is the place where they set up the altar. Only here can match the information provided by Baron Black. You only need to find out the sacrificial progress of the rebels, and I will send someone to meet you. "

The man in black looked at Douglas' finger, nodded calmly, and then disappeared into the shadows.

Douglas sensed that the man in black had left before returning to the map, frowning and thinking.

Before Earl William rebelled, he had made other preparations. It was because of his prudence that he did not face the dilemma of running out of food.

Originally, it would take some time to counterattack, but now, no matter how far the rebels' sacrificial sacrifice progressed, he had to launch a counterattack earlier.

If the evil god really came, even if it was only a trace of his divine power, it would be a devastating disaster for the noble coalition forces.

Originally, the Holy See’s Judgment Army and the Bishop were the means he used to restrain the cultists, but now, half of the Judgment Legion was destroyed, and the Bishop was seriously injured by the Necromancer and a fallen priest. , At present, there is no power to resist the evil god.

"Hopefully everything is in time."
