Looking at Lei Xiao's calm and gentle face, Bai Lao's heart was already overwhelmed.

I remember that before the war started, when Your Excellency Ke Qing said that he would win this massive war with His Highness the Princess, I still thought it was just an unrealistic fantasy.

After all, compared with the huge aristocratic group led by the two princes, a small Kongqing Town is hardly a threat.

I'm afraid I'm not the only one who thinks this way, the two princes and even the aristocratic group forces under their command all have a dismissive and contemptuous attitude, right?

But now, this young guest, His Excellency, has told everyone with ironclad facts that those intruders who tried to get involved in his territory were all sent to their graves by him!

This young guest, Your Excellency, has made those arrogant enemies who once despised him pay the price in blood!

Just like the old king regained the northern border of the kingdom.

"Just from the matter of erasing the fallen nobles, Your Excellency Ke Qing has already achieved a feat that even the old king could not accomplish!"

While his heart was trembling, Bai Lao had already welcomed Lei Xiao and his party into the fortress.

Arriving at the meeting hall of the castle in the center of the fortress, Lei Xiao and Ariel had just taken their seats when Bai Lao led all his cronies to salute his chest and said, "Congratulations, Your Excellency Keqing and Your Highness the Princess, for taking control of the eastern part of Lengyan!"

"General Bai and the commanders don't need to be too polite."

Lei Xiao smiled lightly, and responded, "We're just using an eye for an eye, blood for blood, plus a little bit of trickery, it's no big deal."

Hearing what Lei Xiao said calmly, Bai Lao and the others all took a deep breath, and they were all in awe.

Although Your Excellency Ke Qing said it so easily, with a wave of His Excellency's big hand, those well-equipped and well-trained fallen noble legions were defeated one after another, or even wiped out.

You must know that even the fortress legion, one of the eight royal legions, can only face three ordinary legions at most in a frontal encounter, and remain invincible.

But what Your Excellency Ke Qing faced at the beginning was exactly five times this number.

In addition to being amazed in my heart, an awe-inspiring look appeared on the old Bai Lao's resolute face. He nodded to Lei Xiao and said, "Your Majesty, while congratulating you and Your Highness the Princess, I also want to remind the two of you In a word, the truly severe test has just begun."

"It is conceivable that after losing so many cities, both His Royal Highness the Eldest Prince and the Second Prince must be furious, and when you and the Princess are not on a firm footing, it is the best time to launch a counterattack."

"Your Excellency, the old man is not attacking you and Your Highness the Princess. The reason why you were able to win this battle by surprise is not only your extraordinary courage and strategy, but also the neutral cities that have been hidden for a long time, and even the sudden goblin army. played a crucial role.

I saw that Bai Lao's wrinkled face was full of seriousness, and continued: "Now, all the combat power under your command has been completely exposed in front of the opponent, and the opponent will definitely make sufficient preparations this time, and then launch a battle Unprecedented onslaught."

When Bai Lao said this, the other trusted commanders also nodded solemnly.

As the old general said, either of the two princes still has an absolute advantage in terms of military strength.

After all, compared with the eastern region of Lengyan, which is on the edge of the kingdom, the central region where the capital is located, and the southern region of Lengyan are both the most affluent regions of the kingdom. Not only are they larger in size, but their average strength is also higher. tyrannical.

"His Excellency, Your Majesty, Princess, this is not the only thing."

Bai Lao's dignified old voice sounded again: "Another huge opponent worth noting is the Holy Night Kingdom, which has been eyeing it all the time."

"The Holy Night Kingdom has millions of armors, and its comprehensive strength is comparable to that of the Cold Flame Kingdom. It can easily assemble a terrifying army."

"Before that, there were two main reasons why the Kingdom of Holy Night did not assemble a real large-scale army in this area."

"The first reason, Your Excellency Keqing, must be very clear, that is, the new king of Shengye has just been enthroned, and he has been hesitant. It's just that some of the main battle officials have been pushing for the offensive."

"The second reason is that the war between the Holy Night Kingdom and the Canglan Federation, another human race country, has just ended, and the two sides are still confronting each other at the border."

At this point, Bai Lao shook his head helplessly, and continued: "According to the latest information I have, the main battle officials of the Holy Night Kingdom seem to have persuaded the new king, and are actively carrying out a campaign against my Lengyan Kingdom. preparations for war, and the confrontation with the Canglan Federation ended the day before yesterday when both sides withdrew their troops at the same time."

"And now, this area has just changed hands. I am afraid that the main battle officials of the Holy Night Kingdom will never let go of this excellent opportunity!"

After a pause, Elder Bai said slowly and solemnly: "After all, with the help of you and Your Highness the Princess some time ago, we repelled the eight legions of the Red Devils together, and let those main battle officials suffer a lot. "

"So, the possibility of the Kingdom of the Holy Night taking advantage of the void has reached an unprecedented height?"

Lei Xiao nodded slightly, his face also became more dignified.

Although Lei Xiao had already expected this, after hearing the new information from Bai Lao, his scalp felt numb and he couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Strictly speaking, with the Shanjing Principality's incident, I have already foiled the opponent's plot twice."

Lei Xiao shook his head helplessly, and took a deep breath of the slightly chilly air.

At this stage, I obviously don't have the strength to fight against a huge kingdom alone.

"It seems that it is also imminent to go to the Holy Night Kingdom to find out the truth."

Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully, muttering to himself.

While Lei Xiao was thinking to himself.

Bai Lao and other trusted commanders also sighed heavily.

What is certain is that once the Holy Night Kingdom launches a full-scale attack, the mountain fortress that bears the brunt will undoubtedly be the first to be destroyed.

In other words, their fate is now completely tied to the guest in front of you, Your Excellency Ke Qing.

"No, from the moment Your Excellency Ke Qing and His Highness the Princess rescued the old man from the hands of the Red Demon, the old man has already lived and died with His Excellency Ke Qing and His Highness the Princess."

"Although I can't disobey His Majesty's order and transfer the fortress army away without authorization, at least I can contribute a small amount of strength to Your Excellency Ke Qing here!"

Thinking of this, Bai Lao stepped forward and said solemnly: "Don't worry, Your Excellency, the old man's fortress army will stick here until the last moment!"

"Old General Bai's determination, I know better than anyone else."

Lei Xiao smiled slightly, relieved some of the tense atmosphere around him, and then said seriously: "Don't worry, Old General Bai, when the opponent may launch an attack at any time, I will naturally not sit and wait for death, which is why I came here today The reason for the mountain fortress."

After speaking, Lei Xiao briefly described to Bai Lao the matter of stabilizing the fallen nobles' defenders.

"Originally, this old man was thinking about discussing this matter with Your Excellency Ke Qing, but I didn't expect that Your Excellency Ke Qing has already made all the preparations!"

After listening to Lei Xiao's words, Bai Lao praised: "As expected of Your Majesty Keqing, with the personal speech of Her Royal Highness the Princess, it is simply easier to stabilize the garrison of more than 17,000 fallen nobles. After all, the attack and defense of the mountain fortress During the war, Your Excellency Ke Qing and His Highness the Princess turned the tide and saved everyone's lives!"

After a pause, Bai Lao added again: "However, in order to prevent possible mutiny, the old man has redeployed the guards of the fallen nobles to the mountain fortress and the two fortresses on the surrounding mountainside, which means , Her Royal Highness needs to give three consecutive speeches."

"Old General Bai, this trivial matter is not worth mentioning to me."

Ariel, who had just put on the tiny crown, stood up from her seat, nodded and smiled, "Leave it to me."

After that, accompanied by Lei Xiao and his subordinates, Ariel gave three impassioned and reassuring speeches in a row.

The blessing of members of the noble royal family, the feat of saving the mountain fortress, coupled with Ariel's popularity, made the soldiers in the audience burst into tears, and the atmosphere was extremely high.

Seeing this scene, Lei Xiao nodded in satisfaction.

After this period of deliberate training, Ariel has grown very rapidly, her words and deeds reveal a steady and down-to-earth attitude, and she has initially possessed some of the demeanor of a king.

This point is obviously very different from the arrogant and willful little princess before.

During Ariel's speech, with Bailao's full support, Jiangli also completed the construction of the space beacon for the Shanbao Fortress.

This undoubtedly means that as long as the other space beacons on the corresponding line are built to form a complete transmission network, Lei Xiao can go to the eastern gate of the Cold Flame Kingdom in an instant.

"As expected of Her Royal Highness, the old minister has listened to the speech three times in a row, and still feels his blood boil!"

After everything was completed, Bai Lao, who directed Lei Xiao and others to go to the meeting hall to rest, couldn't help being excited and said: "If His Majesty the old king can see the growth of His Highness the Princess, he will be very happy!"

"I believe it won't be long before I can return to the capital and see my comatose father again."

Ariel's fair face was full of awe, and said solemnly: "But before that, I still need to keep moving forward, so that I can live up to the expectations of all the people who support me."

"With Her Royal Highness's determination, Leng Yan has a glimmer of light. Although it is still very faint, it will still sow the seeds of hope in this land."

Lei Xiao nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Bai Lao and the others and said, "General Bai, before I leave, I have one last thing to do."

"Your Excellency, please tell me."

Bai Lao nodded without hesitation and responded.

"Remember that old general Bai once said that the fortress legion has not been supplied with equipment and other important supplies for a long time?"

Lei Xiao smiled faintly, and said, "I have already discussed with the princess, and from now on, we will leave the supplies of the fortress army to us. I will provide you with the best equipment and other supplies, including food."

Lei Xiao clearly understood that this royal army, known for its defense, was extremely powerful, but due to power disputes in the royal capital, important supplies such as equipment were interrupted for a long time.

But now, after experiencing the previous battle, he can fully confirm that the opponent has already stood on the same front as him.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to let the moon wolf warriors from the Principality of Shanjing enter the country, and let the orange white-collar workers leave 7,000 conscripted soldiers.

In this case, helping the other party is naturally tantamount to helping yourself.

In addition, this can further bind Bai Lao and the entire fortress army to himself, and become the real benefactor of this army.

"Your Majesty, are you serious?!"

Hearing Lei Xiao's words, the joy on Bai Lao's old face was beyond words, and he hurriedly asked.

As the commander, Bai Lao knew better than anyone else that after losing the supplies from the royal family, the morale of the soldiers under his command, and even the commander class, had faintly declined.

The most important thing is that after several wars, although the soldiers have been replenished once, the problem of equipment shortage has not been solved for a long time, and they can only repair it by themselves.

With the limited number of blacksmiths and blacksmiths accompanying the army, some recruits even had no armor to wear, which greatly affected the overall combat power and morale of the army.

And if supplies can be obtained, the fortress army will undoubtedly be able to restore its combat power close to its peak in a short period of time!

At the moment of crisis when the Holy Night Army may approach the city at any time, improving combat power is a chance to improve survival!

In addition to being overjoyed, Bai Lao became hesitant again, frowned at Lei Xiao and said: "But Your Excellency, it seems a little inappropriate to do so?"

The reason why Bai Lao hesitated was because the legion in his hand was loyal to the old king after all. If he accepted supplies from outside the royal family, it might cause some unnecessary troubles.

"Old General Bai is too worried."

Lei Xiao saw what the other party was thinking, smiled lightly and said: "Her Royal Highness represents the royal family, accepting the equipment supplies from Her Royal Highness~www.mtlnovel.com~ has nothing to do with accepting the royal family. The difference, moreover, once Her Royal Highness aspires to the throne and becomes Leng Yan's new king, wouldn't that be a more logical thing?"

"The old man would be more respectful than obedient."

Bai Lao pondered for a moment, then nodded gratefully and said: "Thank you Your Excellency Ke Qing and Your Royal Highness the Princess!"

"Old General Bai is too polite, I have to trouble you to keep these fallen noble defenders in check these few days."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly, and then said: "In addition, after I further stabilize this area, I will also dispatch troops to assist in guarding the mountain fortress."

"Looking forward to the arrival of Your Excellency's reinforcements!"

Bai Lao nodded without hesitation, and responded: "When Your Excellency Ke Qing is away, I will leave everything here to the old man."

"Then trouble Old General Bai."

After speaking, Lei Xiao waved goodbye to Bai Lao, and started to move towards the next destination with all his subordinates.
