Alien Knights

Dawson Mansion, late at night.

Through the gap of the pleated window, Rutledge looked at the dark street, his face was illuminated by the candlelight, and it was cloudy and cloudy.

"Master, preparations are already made in Yinhuan City."

Hearing this voice, Rutledge turned around, looked at the old butler at the door, and said, "Tell those people in Silver Ring City to start according to the plan."

The old butler nodded, but did not move at all, still standing there looking at Rutledge.

The latter frowned and asked, "What's wrong? What else is there?"

The old butler bowed and said, "Master, I have some concerns about the restoration of the kingdom."

"Worried? What is father worried about?"

The old butler was silent for a while, and then said: "The master is worried that those old nobles in the Silver Ring Kingdom may not be good partners for cooperation."

Rutledge turned around, looked at the old butler and said with a smile: "Tell me the truth, do you really think that group of nobles can restore the Silver Ring Kingdom?"

The old butler was a little confused: "Master, what do you mean..."

"Although Muxi City has not been established for a long time, the Holy King already has an unshakable position in the hearts of the citizens. Don't look at us now, we have an advantage in the election, and people follow us to wave flags and cheer. But The premise of all this is that our interests are consistent with those of the people, and we use election methods to gain power, so that they choose to support us."

Rutledge lowered his head and sighed: "But if the forces that finally came to power change their minds and demand the restoration of the Silver Ring Kingdom, those people will soon wake up and target us."

The old housekeeper was a little anxious: "Then, isn't it true that the restoration plan formulated by the former ministers of Yinhuan has no possibility of success?"

Rutledge sat on the chair, and said amusedly: "The heir of the Silver Ring Kingdom, Guy VII, who is only six or seven years old, is nothing but a spoiled idiot. This kind of person is wasting food while living. Being on the throne is just a puppet. Taking ten thousand steps back, even if the group of nobles can capture Muxi City and stabilize the situation, in the end, Yinhuan City will go back to the old road and decline again... Therefore, the cooperation with the nobles and old ministers is just For the time being, as long as my goal is achieved, those idiots are pawns that can be discarded at any time..."

The old butler opened his eyes wide: "Master, do you want to..."

Rutledge turned his gaze out of the window again, and said quietly: "Go back and tell my father, whether it is the Muxi Kingdom or the Silver Ring Kingdom, their history is gone... Next, there will be a new era. "

A few more days passed.

In the king's audience room, Todd looked at Rachel in front of him and asked in surprise, "Why?"

The latter lay on the sofa and stretched himself: "She is willing to do that, does she need a reason?"

Todd shook his head vigorously: "No, no, no, I'm not asking about Mary's motives, what I want to ask is, why did you go to find Mary and persuade her to stay in Muxi City?"

Rachel put her index finger to her lips and said with a chuckle, "This is a test."

Seeing the other party's secretive appearance, Todd shook his head helplessly: "What did you say to her?"

"I just told her you're in danger and need all the help you can get," Rachel said.

Todd was puzzled: "That's all?"

Rachel shrugged, "That's all."

"Staying in Muxi City at this time is a very dangerous decision." Todd rubbed his forehead with his hands, and said with a headache: "Rachel, maybe I'm thinking too much, you seem to be quite prejudiced against Mary? "

Rachel glanced at Todd, and said quietly: "Prejudice?"

"Whether it's Karin, Evie or Deirdre, you have shown kindness and tolerance towards heterogeneous species, especially female heterogeneous species. But only Mary, you seem to be hostile to her?"

Rachel sat up straight, stared into Todd's eyes, and said calmly: "I really don't like Mary, half of the reason is because of her attitude towards the alien race."

"You can't imagine how much the latter doted on Mary after she married King Silver Ring. Whether it was those priceless works of art or the huge sky garden, as long as it could be exchanged for the Queen's smile, at that time The Guy VI will do anything, totally like a love-hacked brat."

"However, as a heterogeneous Mary, she obviously has infinite wealth and power, but she is immersed in pleasure. Not only did she not show the slightest sympathy for the suffering of the heterogeneity, she even showed disgust towards the heterogeneity in public. "

Todd sighed: "I have met Mary's father, Leoric, and learned about some things in her family. Perhaps, deep in Mary's heart, she thought that she married far away because of her heterogeneous identity Being hated by your father... By the way, you said this is half of the reason, what is the other half of the reason?"

Rachel rolled her eyes at Todd, and said in a low voice, "You should be able to guess the other half of the reason."

Todd looked puzzled: "Can I guess?"

A sudden knock on the door interrupted their conversation.

Todd asked displeasedly, "What's going on?"

The guard outside the door said in a hurried voice: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Yinhuan City, and a large-scale riot has occurred in the city!"

Todd and Rachel looked at each other, and the former said, "Come in."

The guard put a letter sealed with a fire seal on Todd's desk, and then exited the gate.

Todd opened the envelope, pulled out the report inside, glanced at it briefly, and then handed it to Rachel.

Rachel took the report and read while reading: "December 7, 1175, the reconstruction work of Yinhuan City had to be suspended due to the heavy snow. In the early morning of the next day, a large number of bandits took advantage of the heavy snow Covering, appeared around Yinhuan City, and was discovered by our army when climbing the city wall. There were about 3,000 enemy troops, most of whom were well-trained soldiers, but the opponent had no heavy armor and no siege weapons. The army had an absolute advantage. However, about half an hour after the defense of the city, about a thousand people in the city suddenly rioted and charged towards the city gate."

"Under the unfavorable situation of attacking from inside and outside, the west city gate fell, and the bandit army outside the city and the mob in the city gathered together, and began to drive the civilians in the city to attack our army's positions, and consumed our army's arrows and supplies. At this time, the number of enemy troops was close to six. Thousands of people. After fighting the enemy for nearly three hours, the remaining soldiers had to retreat into the inner city and chose to stick to it. Since the reconstruction of the inner city has not yet been completed, the fortifications, combat preparation materials, warm clothes, food and water sources are all in a state of severe shortage. Therefore, I hereby ask Muxi City for help."

After reading the report, Rachel said softly, "The actions of the silver ring nobles are quite fast."

Todd nodded: "This is the most conventional tactic of attacking east and west. The purpose is to attract the attention of Muxi City and force us to send reinforcements to break the siege."

Rachel went on to say: "Between Muxi City and Silver Ring City, if it is an infantry regiment's rapid march, it will take about three days and three nights from the beginning of preparation to the arrival at the battlefield. But if it is a strange horse, only twelve You can start engaging the enemy in an hour..."

"The enemy is precisely aware of this, so we have to send out the heterogeneous knights." Todd said with a smile: "As long as this strongest military force is transferred from Muxi City, the group of nobles Can calmly cope with the next battle."

Rachel looked at the report and asked, "Then what should we do now? Rescue? Or let the Alien Knights stay in the city?"

Todd picked up the pen and paper from the table, and while writing quickly, he said: "The stage has been set up, the actors are all in place, and the audience is looking forward to it. At this time, who wouldn't want to see the next good show?" Woolen cloth?"
