You and me under the world tree

On the surface, this purpose is to guard the ancient royal city, so as not to tarnish the glory left by the king of war teeth.

But in fact, any lord who has real power understands that the garrison of troops in the king's territory in advance is just to leave a retreat for those lords.

In fact, Elf was very sincere. He divided the vast territory he ruled into several pieces again, and even distributed several towns to those lords to ensure that their high-level influence would not be damaged.

Otherwise, how could those lords leave their territory so easily?

With the gradual advancement of the Gothic Kingdom, each lord had to abandon his territory and people and come to the king's land.

And it was under such a concession that the king gathered an unprecedented large number of troops.

And that amount is...

"There are...nearly [-] fighters."

Finally, the messenger spoke slowly.

After hearing the messenger's answer, Elf smiled miserably.

Yes.

There are 10 people!

"There are a total of [-] battle-ready soldiers! These are regular troops who can wear armor! It's not an auxiliary army! It's not a temporary militia!"

The messenger raised his head and heard His Majesty's roaring voice.

He could feel the king's anger.

It was precisely because he sensed the king's anger that he couldn't help but tremble with fear.

You won't be dragged down and chopped down, will you?

Everyone knows that the king's emotions have been ups and downs in recent times.

It is said that there was also a conflict with Prince Losger.

According to the grapevine, the prince appears to be opposed to the strategy of abandoning the common people.

He felt that the civilians should be taken away together, or at least the people should be left with rations for the winter.

Because of this, he was directly imprisoned by the old king.

And at this moment, Elf didn't care about the soldier's thoughts at all.

He just roared with all his strength, trying to completely release the gloom and unhappiness in his heart.

"Don't one or two of those people like to brag about their fighters! Why was the line of defense torn apart?"

Although these armies are destined to obey only their lords, the contrasting banners are also annoying.

But they belonged under the name of the king after all.

Not to mention mobilizing them to fight, just stationed there, this number is enough to make your scalp tingle.

And when the lord and the king are united as one, the king's territory centered on Hero City is impenetrable!

Both the lords and Elf himself think so.

However, it didn't take long for them to feel at ease, and they didn't even wait for the reinforcements that were destined to arrive in Denmark. The line of defense fell?

"Elite? Soldiers? Even a hundred thousand fully armed pigs can crush the formation of the army!"

And when he said this, Elf couldn't help but feel a gloomy feeling in his heart.

His heart was bleeding.

Not because of anything else, because the word that the messenger said hurt him deeply.

The soldiers were divided into two groups, not to gather troops to forcefully attack.

"These people can't even defend their own fortress! It's really unreliable!"

To this, the messenger did not answer.

After a while, Elf calmed down and asked another question.

"Is there any movement in the army on the other side?"

"It is said that another army marched all the way north, and seems to be continuing to occupy the land we abandoned."

"..."

After hearing what the messenger said, Elf finally noticed something was wrong.

"No, it's not right at all. At this time, that woman should realize what kind of predicament she is facing."

Elf was never stupid.

He never expected that his strategy could be completely concealed.

To a certain extent, he even speculated on the movements of the Gothic army.

Deep down in his heart, although he hoped that Goth would choose to go home to farm and talk about things in the spring, but he also guessed that with the character of that woman, he might choose to fight with his back.

It is also for this reason that he carefully arranged the defense line and re-distributed his own territory to those lords who retreated to him with 'good intentions'.

However, all of this should be based on one point: lack of food.

"The Goths have been fighting for almost a whole year and experienced civil strife. In theory, they don't have too much food. They should have no food."

If there is food, they will not be dragged down by those civilians.

But now, they still continue to occupy those lands.

what is this?

This point, the Danish king may never understand.

Because it's basically just a left-handed, right-handed business.

A few years ago, Dietrich sold grain to Siegfried at low prices to maintain trade and helped him through a difficult period.

At the same time, she also got a lot of 'wealth'.

But now, she just used the money to buy those grains again.

No loss and no gain.

Moreover, Hiltebrand is not a rigid person.

Domestic granaries are not short of food for the time being. For Gothic, the difficulty is actually the problem of transportation.

The rest of the land is mountainous, and they can only be transported by land.

But the Netherlands is different.

As long as they cross the Rhine River, it is the territory of Denmark, and the transportation industry is quite developed.

When the Goths occupy there, they will be able to deliver food quickly.

So in the end, it became the mode in which Master Hiltebrand designated the transportation location and the Dutch fighters were responsible for delivering the courier.

The big deal is to post more transportation costs. Anyway, the Netherlands is not fighting, and the army is very idle.

"Please sign for it. This is a new batch of supplies, Your Highness."

In the private tent, after hearing some familiar voices, Dietrich suddenly turned around.

At this moment, what she saw was the man in leather armor, and there was a hint of a smile in the cloudy eyes under the leather helmet.

"Ah You."

…………

…………

…………

…………

Elf probably never imagined that the Netherlands was delivering a courier.

The second update_(:з」∠)_

go out to mess with

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

I don't know why, but in Dietrich's impression, his eyes are really recognizable.

So just from the moment she noticed the eyes, she immediately determined the identity of the man in leather armor and leather helmet in front of her.

After fully realizing this, she first subconsciously cast her eyes on the door.

Seeing that there was no one there, she walked slowly to the door, and then closed the door tightly.

In an instant, it was a magic barrier and a sound barrier.

In this way, the princess grandly arranged magic that is difficult for ordinary people to detect.

And after doing this, she couldn't help but take a deep breath.

It could be seen that she had tried her best to keep herself calm.

Although it was a bit inexplicable, she just didn't want to let herself show panic.

However, just after she managed to calm herself down, she discovered one thing:

In terms of 'deep breath' alone, this seems to be a sign of panic in itself.

In other words, her preparatory work seems to be useless?

Thinking of this, Dietrich's heart seemed to be in a mess again.

However, she has adjusted her emotions after all.

Although there are ups and downs, they are not too big - at least there is no problem on the surface.

Then, she showed a somewhat stiff expression:

"How did you come?"

Facing Dietrich's questioning eyes, Hodder suddenly felt a little strange.

If he had to say it, at this moment, what he felt was actually a novelty.

Because thinking about it carefully, he hadn't seen Dietrich's uncomfortable side very much.

In his memory, she always seemed to be at ease, so this sudden uneasiness was rather novel.

"I……"

At this moment, Hodder unconsciously elongated his tone.

"Ok?"

"I'll come see you."

"what……"

In an instant, time seemed to freeze completely.

Dietrich even forgot to breathe, a little light shone in her red eyes.

But soon, her eyes looked around.

"what……"

After finally catching her breath, she didn't even know how to respond.

"what……"

By the end, her voice was getting lower and lower.

At this moment, her head was a little messed up, and she didn't know what to think about.

She even thought about something insignificant.

I even thought about the strategy against Denmark, but I just didn't know how to respond.

In the end, it was Hodder who laughed first.

"Didn't you see my clothes?"
