Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The shadow of the famous tree of people is as far away as the Kingdom of Lorraine. Many people have heard of the name of Lovidnov. This is the first person under Vyacher's command. Later, he followed the Easterners and his status was even higher.  Even Marina has heard of Luo Weide's name. The leader of the Hammer Gang turned out to be an old man with extremely weak fighting ability. "Are you really Luo Weidenov?" "It's true" Luo Weidenov  There was a feeling of sadness in my heart. Who said you have to be brave to lead a war? The mind is the most important thing.  However, these words obviously cannot be said to Miss Marina, and the Miss Marina cannot understand them.  Hornan frowned tightly. He was doubting Luo Weide's purpose. Before Royce left, Luo Weide ran over again. Are Orientals so eager to get married?  "Lord Luo Weide, please tell me the reason for your visit. If it is about marriage, I can't give you an answer yet." Huo Nan was very cunning and blocked the conversation as soon as he came up. Luo Weide was not worried. After sitting down again, he spoke slowly.  He said, "The Duke is different. Now, the marriage is no longer the most urgent thing. I got news a few days ago that the young prince Moore has formed an alliance with Rufford. I guess the Duke doesn't know about it yet."  He looked shocked. He really didn't know about Moore and Rufford. In his opinion, the royal family would not be stupid enough to get involved in Merlin City's affairs.  If the Red Grape nobles of Southern Lorraine start to cause trouble, the royal family will not be able to suppress it.  Hornan stared at Luo Weide's expression carefully. Are these words true or false?  Hornan suspected that these things were fabricated by Lovidnov in order to encourage the nobles of Southern Lorraine to turn to the East.  Lovidnov could more or less guess what Hornan was thinking, "Your Majesty, Duke, if what I said is true or false, can't you just find someone to confirm it? Caron, Rufford, Moore, you can find these people casually  One can prove that what I said is true. Lord Royce and I are in Varro Manor. Do you think it will benefit us to marry?  Whether it is successful or not will not affect the overall situation at all. The regent has already taken over the Kingdom of Saxony. Without the Wei Ting family, there will still be other families. The Song Dynasty can bring enough benefits. I don't think the Duke has any doubts about this? "  Driven by profit, anything can happen, and Hornan knows this all too well.  Luo Weidenov's words were soft but hard at the same time. Hornan's eyes quickly became sharp and solemn.  In fact, Lovidnov was telling Hornan that marriage was just a means, and whether or not to form an alliance in the end was supported by interests. The situation of the Wei Ting family was already a bit difficult to survive alone.  There is no doubt that the nobles of Southern Lorraine are powerful, but the key point is that they are not in Meilin City. It will take time for the Wei Ting family to gather the nobles of Southern Lorraine.  Marriage?  Alliance?  Let¡¯s first understand one question: who is begging whom. In fact, the Wei Ting family cannot do without the support of the empire.  Without the support of the Song Empire, the Wei Ting family would not be able to survive this winter.  Lovidnov is not trying to scare Hornan. The little prince Moore dares to visit Merlin City in person. If he doesn't have two brushes, isn't he going to die?  The atmosphere in the room was a little cold for a while. Marina didn't understand what was going on at all. As they were chatting, everyone's expressions were a bit wrong.  Marina was not interested in these family disputes, but she still heard about the marriage. Hornan was still thinking about the pros and cons, but Marina snorted coldly and scolded Luo Weidenov, "Luo Weide, what on earth are you doing?"  What do you mean? Does that old man from the East look down on me? If you say there is no marriage, then who do you think I am? " Old man from the East?  Royce and others were stunned by this. The regent was in his prime, young and handsome, so why did he become an old man?  This Marina is really unreasonable. She is not happy with the marriage, and she is not happy without the marriage. She has the final say over everything. Lovidnov is not young anymore, and he is always pointed at by a hairy girl.  He scolded, if he didn't ignite the fire, he would be dead. "Miss Marina, please speak more politely. The alliance will be beneficial to both parties. As for the marriage, it is really dispensable, and His Royal Highness the Regent is not that kind."  People who can't live without women. " Lovidnov thought to himself, the regent really has no shortage of women, not to mention those beautiful oriental women, even the blond Claire is not inferior to Marina.  This Marina is simply a tigress.  Lovidnov was not polite at all. Marina had never experienced such a blow since she was a child. She was about to take out the dagger while squeezing her neck. Hornan was worried and said with a sad smile, "  Good daughter, don¡¯t make trouble. You have the final say whether to marry or not. Things are important right now.¡± No matter how Marina glared, Huo Nan was thinking about the Luke family. After thinking about it, he still felt that Luo Weide was in trouble.  There is no need for Nov to lie. The only one who can help the Wei Ting family right now is the hero Kipros in front of him. "Lord Luo Weide, you have offended me a lot just now. Since you have seen somethingWell, there should be some way to deal with the current situation.  I wonder how many troops Mr. Luo Weide brought with him?  " After asking these words, Hornan wanted to slap himself in the face twice, and his head was filled with water. Why did he ask such a stupid question? When Lovidnov came to Merlin City, he must have hidden his identity and came here quietly.  Besides, there is no way to bring a large army across the border from Northern Lorraine. The German nobles must be frightened when the Eastern army enters the border of Southern Lorraine, which may lead to a bigger war. Lovidnov is not surprised.  Hornan, at this time, Hornan was preoccupied with how to deal with the royal family, and the first thing that came to mind must be reinforcements, "Your Excellency, the Duke is going to be disappointed. He only brought a dozen followers with him this time.  You know the situation of the Holy Empire very well. Although the Germanic nobles were suppressed by the empire, their strength is still there. The Song Empire does not want to expand the war if necessary.  Therefore, even if Southern Lorraine is in danger, the empire cannot send enough troops.  However, before coming to Varro Manor, someone had already been sent to inform Mr. Dekler. I believe that soon, Northern Lorraine will send troops to help Merlin City.  " Luo Weidenov will not watch the Weiting family being annihilated. The imperial army cannot move. The only ones who can move are the Northern Lorraine Allies. It is a pity that Northern Lorraine is worse than Southern Lorraine. In addition, the Red Army  The top knights suffered heavy losses, and it is estimated that there will only be more than 3,000 cavalry in southern Lorraine. It is better to have nothing. As long as the Franks do not directly intervene in the affairs of the Kingdom of Lorraine, Frank Lovidnov still has enough confidence to control the situation.  People also have their own considerations. Fatty Louis is not having an easy time. Although the status of the royal Louis family is stable, the Frankish Kingdom is not monolithic. The Franks' war against the island of England has lasted for more than two years, and no practical progress has been made so far.  , The long war has cost countless people, and many noble lords have become war-weary. Under this situation, no matter how tough Louis is, it is impossible to directly send troops to interfere with the affairs of the Lorraine Kingdom, not to mention that the nobles of the north and south of Lorraine are still standing behind them.  The Song Empire and the Eastern Germanic nobles were directly involved in the government affairs of the Kingdom of Lorraine. Why should the Easterners and the Germanic people join forces to drive the Franks out since Lothar was trapped in the quagmire of the Istrian Highlands War?  , the situation of the Holy Roman Empire became complicated. The Franks successively annexed several principalities in the west. They were powerful and had always wanted to replace the Saxon Dynasty, establish the Louis Dynasty and rule the Holy Empire. This was well known to the Eastern nobles and Danubian nobles.  Ming. In addition, there is an unfathomable Eastern Empire outside, and the major forces in the entire Holy Roman Empire have tightened their nerves. As long as any string is touched, a melee between the Eastern nobles and the Danube may break out.  The nobles definitely don't want to start a chaotic war. The Song Empire will find a way to carry out the Baltic strategy and wipe out Lothair's remnant army in the Istrian highlands without asking for trouble. The Franks also don't want to fight on two fronts. That's it.  , the originally weakest Kingdom of Lorraine, no force directly intervened. This is the first time in hundreds of years that the Lorraine people have decided their own destiny. In the end, the Lorraine people themselves will decide which path the Lorraine Kingdom should take.  No matter what Lovidnov or Caron can do, they can only make suggestions. After hearing Lovidnov¡¯s words, Hornan was somewhat disappointed, but he also had some hope, although North Lorraine¡¯s strength was not very good.  , but the Red-Crowned Knights are still very powerful. Next, Lovidnov gave Hornan a lot of suggestions, one of which was to strictly control the north and south gates, and the centurions and thousand-centurions patrolling the city must also be absolutely  Hornan did not refuse, and strictly followed Lovidnov's instructions. As the north and south city gatekeepers were replaced by the Weiting family's confidants, Rufford, who had been in peace, finally felt something was wrong. Moore,  Fletcher and others all gathered in the Nanlin Manor Castle. Rufford changed from his usual decrepit appearance and became energetic and sharp-eyed. "Hornan mobilized the defenders at the north and south gates. He must have heard some news."  , from now on, we must act quickly and not let the Wei Ting family react.  The little prince sent someone to inform him. Maybe the news was leaked from him. He hoped that the royal troops could approach Merlin City as soon as possible.  "The snowstorm has not stopped yet. Marching in this environment must be difficult, but Rufford can't wait any longer. He knows better than anyone how much influence the Weiting family has on Merlin City. In a short period of time, Luke  The family can still exert influence on Merlin City by relying on the prestige and connections they have accumulated in the past, but as time goes by, this influence will gradually decline, the more beneficial it will be to the Wei Ting family, not to mention the fact that there are still many people left.  With so many Red Grape nobles helping the Wei Ting family, Rufford still had some confidence in his own confidentiality work. On the contrary, the young prince Moore, who was young and energetic and arrogant, looked down upon Wei Ting to some extent.  The Ting family, hey, they are so immature. Rufford personally gave the order, and the Weilan family and the Luke family immediately took action. After Moore got the news, his face became very ugly.Anger burned in his heart, and he banged things in the room, "Who leaked the plan?" The plan was leaked in advance, and the previous arrangements could only be put on the schedule early, although there was some resentment.  Although Ford is domineering, there is still no doubt about Radford's wisdom.  While the Luke family was secretly plotting, Moore also sent a letter out of the city.  Forty miles north of Merlin City, there was a town called Lennon. On a windy and snowy day, the town seemed unusually quiet, with only smoke and dust indicating that there were still people alive.  In this town, there are nearly five thousand royal troops hidden, of which more than two thousand are cavalry.  According to the previously agreed plan, as long as the heavy snow stops, they can directly attack Merlin City.  The person responsible for the surprise attack on Merlin City this time was a noble captain from the Senate. His real name was Gaured, also known as Earl Gaude.  Gorred kept cursing the horrible weather above his head, and drank the liquor from the porcelain pot intermittently, "This kind of bird weather can freeze people into popsicles. If you don't drink some wine, you will feel uncomfortable all over." "Isn't that right?  We are freezing here, but the third prince is hiding in the city and enjoying peace and quiet. It seems that he is not a close friend or not." Another centurion also complained, and Gorred pretended not to hear and did not comment.  As evening approached, the cold wind subsided a little. The door of the house was pushed open, and gusts of cold wind mixed with snowflakes floated into the room. Suddenly everyone was shivering from the cold.  The person who came was none other than Moore's trusted guard. When he saw Gao Leide, he quickly took out the wax-sealed letter, "Lord Gao Leide, this is an autographed letter from the third prince." He opened the letter and only glanced at it twice.  Red was shocked. How could a good plan be leaked?  Gorred had participated in the Eastern Expedition and was well aware of the dangers of marching in windy and snowy weather. Cavalry, in particular, was not suitable for marching in windy and snowy weather.  But when he thought of Moore's identity, he had to grit his teeth and obey the order. He was the son of Matai'er. If he refused to save him, then he, Gorred, would definitely not survive. "Go ahead and tell me, after time tomorrow,  Regardless of whether the wind and snow have stopped, we must march to the outskirts of Merlin City after the day. The third prince is in trouble? There were people who wanted to raise objections.  Moore was in danger, and many people swallowed their words directly.  No one who can sit in the house is a fool.  It's going to be really miserable now. Marching and fighting in the storm, I really don't know how many people will die on the way.  Dozens of miles may not sound very far at first, but this distance is enough to freeze someone to death.  Time flew by, and in a blink of an eye it was the first ten days of the first month of the sixth year of Taikang. The snow in Suplin Castle finally stopped, but the snow and ice in Meilin City became heavier and heavier.  The originally overwhelming ice and snow provided a lot of convenience for the Luke family's actions. Under the ice and snow, the city patrol soldiers couldn't lift their spirits. The Luke family soldiers quickly gathered quietly.  Just waiting for Rufford's order, they can launch the most violent attacks everywhere in the city.  In the Nanlin Manor Castle, Rufford was still very quiet, sipping wine and squinting his eyes, just like an ordinary rich old man.  Moore also came to Nanlin Manor. Seeing Rufford's calm demeanor, he was truly impressed. Compared with these old family lords, his highness, the prince, still has a lot to learn.  This Qi-nurturing skill alone cannot be learned in a short while.
