The King of Knights
Chapter 048
Theoretically, although France was defeated this time, their army returned most of it after all. Even taking into account the number of wounded soldiers after the war, nearly half of them returned. These soldiers may become the force of the next war.
But only theoretically.
“Worried? Worried about France’s comeback? Now the initiative is in our hands. The previous war had cost France 70,000 or 80,000 troops, and France would not pose a threat to Britain in a short time, and we could free up our hands to develop domestic affairs. ”
Seventy or eighty thousand troops is not a small number, especially since France, like Britain, is currently in a territory surrounded by great powers. For a long time to come, they may face more internal problems, as well as peeping from the north and east.
The defeat of France may also give others the illusion that ‘France is actually very dish, I can go to it, after all, you see, a new king who doesn’t know where it came from made the three legions surrender in France in a month.'” ‘This kind of thing. Once this illusion is in place, the country is likely to be prey by many.
“I thought Lucier really wanted to eliminate the three legions in France in one fell swoop, but I didn’t expect Lucille to want peace talks.”
“In fact, if the internal problems of Britain have not been solved, the previous war is an opportunity. But alas, internal instability, strong enemies in the north and east are still there, and time does not allow us to make too many choices. ”
“It’s a shame. If it were not for the problems of north and east, this war should have been Britain’s best chance to invade France in one fell swoop. ”
Although she seems to be an upright knight on the surface, the maiden knight also seems to have the idea of defeating France’s old enemy. It should be said that the knights here more or less have this idea.
In fact, the previous war can be said to be one step behind. They were only one step away from breaking through the east side of France, but unfortunately the timing was not right.
“It is because of the complexity of the situation that I want to talk to France first. Not to mention that the most return can be obtained from them, just considering the current situation in Britain, we cannot excessively weaken the strength of France. Otherwise, once Rome and Macedonia eliminate France, we may face Rome in a two-front situation. Rome was now strong enough that annexing French territory would directly threaten the very existence of Britain. Lucifer’s mind remained calm at all times.
Piercing France. It sounds like a very good look, but the problem is that even if they fight now, they will not be able to hold it, and they will only cheapen the two countries next to them for nothing.
Helping other countries increase their strength in this situation is almost equivalent to slowly stifling their own development. It may eventually turn into suicide. Now Lucifer has the illusion of playing a strategy game. Of course, if the bones of France were hard enough, it would have been possible to try dragging Rome into the quagmire of war in France, but there was clearly no such if.
“It sounds complicated, and I’m really not suitable for this kind of thing.” After thinking about it, Artoria was a little self-defeating. Or rather, recognize reality.
If she had been leading the army, she would have been hot-headed and continued to attack, and the result would have been that Rome might have bordered Britain directly to the south. And that outcome could be devastating.
“Everyone has something they’re good at, and there’s something they’re not good at. Leah’s words, just focus on what you are good at, and leave the rest to me. ”
“Hmm!”
With this as a boundary, there was a brief silence between them. Lucifer was about to get up, and when he took off the towel, he subconsciously looked at Artoria. He only found out that the girl’s blond hair had become a little messy because of the previous war.
He looked at a plate that the maid had brought by the pool, where the cleaning items were placed. Lucifer found that there were only two kinds of water pressed from leaves, which the previous maid said were used to clean the body and hair.
Shampoo? Shower gel?
With such curiosity, Lucifer tried it and found that this was just the most primitive practice. Although it has a cleaning function, the effect is just like that. Still, something is better than nothing.
He picked up two things and looked at them, then called out to Artoria next to him.
“Leah, come here. I’ll help you wash your hair. ”
“Wash… Hair! Artoria’s body tensed again, and the towel on her face fell off in fright at the sound.
“yes! On the battlefield before, your blonde hair has faded a lot. If you don’t take good care of it, you may wither like grass in the future. As a girl, it’s not okay not to take care of your hair. ”
“Girls or something, I never thought about it before.”
Artoria turned her back to Lucifer, not wanting her to see her red face. Reason told her that she should firmly refuse, but her heart had an extra expectation.
Ordinary girls, normal girls’ lives. She had never thought about it before.
“Hair is also a sign of femininity, so learn how to live like a normal girl from now on?”
“Well, please.”
This time, Artoria obediently walked out of the water.
Lucifer expertly smeared the juices into her hair, and a feeling of nostalgia could not help but rise in her heart. The scene in front of me is somewhat familiar, but the space at that time was not as large as it is now, and it was not this person in front of him.
In the cycle of two lifetimes, things are people and non-people. Those in the past only have a trace of the picture, and even the figure in the picture has long been blurred, and only that feeling remains. He will miss it, but he will no longer be haunted by the past.
Thinking of this, the force in Lucifer’s hand was unconsciously used in the wrong direction.
“Ugh!”
In her ears, the girl’s voice was inadvertently mixed with a hint of temptation. Lucifer came to his senses from his memories.
“What’s wrong?”
“That, there are some in the ears… Some itching. ”
Hearing this voice, a different thought suddenly arose in Lucifer’s heart.
“Is it here?”
“Hmm. Yes! Please don’t do that. ”
“Leah, you just said that you are not feminine. But that’s not what your voice says. I’m so excited right now that I want to act. ”
“Huh! Huh!! ”
“It’s this kind of voice again, with a hint of shyness in it, like a pitch change of a passionate note, which makes people addicted.”
“Please don’t say such misleading words, my voice will make people addicted or something, I never have one.”
“But I’m already reacting.”
“Quick… Fast… Stop it! ”
“Whose fault do you think I am who I am now?” As a knight, you should take responsibility for your mistakes. ”
“Too cunning, this kind of reason.”
Knight Ji gradually gave up resistance….
