Boom!

The lightning pierced the sky, and the torrential rain in Winter City became more and more violent.

After the banquet, Colin returned to his residence and as soon as he closed the door, Bachelor Dawn immediately said:

"Master Viscount, choosing to go out of the city to fight at this time is not a wise move!"

Colin did not immediately respond to Bachelor Dawn, but unhurriedly untied the tightly pinched neckline, took off his jacket and threw it on the back of the chair.

Then he asked with a smile, "Do you think, why did Earl Uman propose to go out of the city with me to meet the enemy?"

Bachelor Dawn was taken aback for a moment, apparently he didn't expect that Colin would not pay attention to his advice just now, but was struggling with this issue instead.

However, he explained patiently: "First of all, Earl Uman definitely does not want to let the Golden Lion Army enter the city. This is the bottom line. After all, the Golden Lion Army has a larger number of troops, and the fighting power must be stronger than the Uman family army. Once in the city, the Lion Hubao's right to speak will definitely change hands.

As for why he had to go out of the city to meet the enemy, he probably wanted to take this opportunity to make military merits.

Although the St. Hild family has accepted the surrender of Uman and forgave his previous betrayal, this is based on the current situation of the enemy. If the northern border is settled in the future, the Uman family may not be able to escape. Liquidation.

You don’t even have to look for excuses for liquidation. According to the [Law of Lords], the Uman family lost its fief, and the title can of course be taken away. What's more, Fallen Eagle City had been burned to ashes, and it was impossible for Earl Uman to regain his fief.

Under such circumstances, his only way to save himself is to make military merits in the process of putting down the rebels, so as to guarantee his title and status.

Therefore, it is impossible for him to accept our suggestion to guard the city or even make peace with the dwarves. "

Colin nodded, recognized the judgment of Bachelor Dawn, and then asked another question:

"What about after repelling the rebels? If we really fight against the dwarf army outside the city, well, even if we win, then how will Count Uman end up?

Could he continue to block the Golden Lion Army outside the city? Ha ha, are you afraid that I will tidy him up? "

"I don't know exactly how Earl Uman and the others planned." Bachelor Dawn shook his head with a solemn expression, "However, I guess they still want to make a fuss about the Duke's body."

Colin also narrowed his eyes and realized that this should be his biggest flaw right now.

Bachelor Dawn continued his analysis and said: "The fact that the Duke's body was dropped is full of doubts. I even suspect that the Morrison family has sworn allegiance to Joyce in advance.

Of course, it may also be the matchmaking of the church.

This Archbishop Adjani...I don't quite understand it.

Think about it, if in the future at the Duke’s funeral, Adjani suddenly questioned the authenticity of the remains, it would be a fatal blow to Vera and your reputation! "

Colin rubbed his chin and felt that it was indeed possible. After thinking for a moment, he asked again: "Then Archbishop Adjani, can he be drawn in?"

Bachelor Dawn shook his head gravely.

Colling said: "Why? Don't the church just want to see an obedient Duke of the North? He can give it to Joyce, and Vera can give it.

Moreover, I can also persuade Vera to disclose her belief in the Lord of Radiance.

A mage converts to the Lord of Radiance. Wouldn't the church be tempted by such a gimmick with propaganda value? "

But Bachelor Dawn still shook his head, and asked, "Master Viscount, do you know why the church sent such a young and beautiful archbishop to the north?"

"Why?"

Bachelor Dawn did not answer directly, and asked again: "Do you know Mrs. Kate?"

"Who?" Colin looked blank.

"She is the wife of the Earl of the East, and at the same time, she is also a priest, and even the Archbishop of the East!"

"Haha." Colin instantly understood what Bachelor Dawn meant.

The church has resorted to beauty tricks.

"So, the real purpose of the Archbishop Adjani is to marry Joyce and become the Duchess of the North?"

Bachelor Dawn nodded: "Yes, because of Mrs. Kate, the church has a deep penetration into the East, and it can even influence some decisions of the Duke of the East.

After having tasted the sweetness in the East, the church has been trying to use the same method to expand its influence in the secular world, and this time, Archbishop Adjani’s goal should be Joyce! "

Colin couldn't help but laugh a little. He used a beautifying trick on a ten-year-old kid, and the church could really think of it.

However, this trick might be really useful. With Ajani's charm, if you want to control a little boy, it couldn't be easier.

Looking back, Colin found that Joyce had indeed been watching Adjani frequently during the banquet, and he had obviously been attracted by the other party.

In this way, the church, between Vera and Joyce, would definitely choose the latter.

A converted mage, there is no such thing as a duchess.

call--

Colin let out a sigh of relief, and then returned to the topic: "Then what's a good way for you now?"

Bachelor Dawn lifted his spirits and quickly persuaded him: "My Lord Viscount, the strategic goal we set at the beginning cannot be changed!

Not only may it not be able to win the battle out of the city to meet the enemy, even if it is won, Joyce's line of victory will probably be robbed of the fruits of victory. Therefore, we must adhere to the original principles-

Don't confront the rebels head-on, defend the Winter City, and then slowly divide and draw together to disintegrate the rebel forces! "

Colin spread his hands together and said helplessly, "But now they won't agree to let the Golden Lion Army enter the city."

Bachelor Dawn flashed a sharp look in his eyes, and said cruelly: "Your Viscount, then we must take extraordinary measures!"

"Oh? What extraordinary means?" Clin suddenly became interested.

Bachelor Dawn said every word: "Forced into the city!"

"How to force it? You can't force it, right?"

"No." Bachelor Dawn shook his head, "At present, the city gate of Winter City is still controlled by the city defense army. As long as we speak to Thomas Knight, we can open the city gate and let the Golden Lion Army enter the city.

As long as the Golden Lion Army enters the city, Earl Uman, if he is wise, will obediently give up his dominance and strive for reconciliation with us.

Of course, even if he wants to fight a fish and lose the net, with the Golden Lion Army and the city defense army, we are not afraid. "

Colin leaned forward slightly, and asked eagerly: "Are you sure to tell Knight Thomas?"

Bachelor Dawn nodded confidently: "At the banquet, I have already noticed that the relationship between Thomas Knight and Earl Uman and others is not very close. He should have been forcibly pulled aboard."

Colin frowned: "But you have already got on the boat. It will be difficult for you to get him off again."

Bachelor Dawn smiled mysteriously: "At this time, it's up to Miss Vera's life experience."

"What do you mean?" Colin flashed his eyes and suddenly realized something.

"Do you know who Vera's biological father is?"

Colin looked at the mysterious Dawn Bachelor, and suddenly laughed.

Bachelor Dawn was stunned, then he reacted and said with a laugh: "Viscount Lord, it seems that you already know it."

Colin nodded: "I learned from the Marquis Garcia, how did you know?"

"The Duke of St. Hild told me."

Colin was a little surprised. It seemed that the Duke really trusted this Bachelor of Dawn, and even told him such secrets.

"Then do you know who Vera's biological mother is?" Colin suddenly asked curiously~lightnovelpub.net~ Unfortunately, Bachelor Dawn shook his head and signaled that he didn't know.

Colin was a little disappointed, and then wondered: "Vera's biological father is Marquis Garcia. What does it have to do with Thomas Knight?"

Bachelor Dawn smiled slightly and said: "Lord Viscount, you may not know that this Thomas knight was once a member of the Black Cavalry. He followed the Marquis Garcia on the ice field for more than ten years, and he admired the Lord Marquis extremely.

So, if he knew that Vera was the biological daughter of the Marquis Garcia, he would definitely help us! "

It was then that Colin came across. It turned out to be a fan of Marquis Garcia.

However, it is normal to think about it. With the prestige of the Marquis Garcia in the army, it would be strange if there were no fans.

"Okay, then you go find him now!"

"Yes, Master Viscount, please wait for my good news!"

Bachelor Dawn smiled confidently, then went out, picked up the raincoat and rushed into the rain curtain.
