The Original Vampire

As the night got darker, the banquet in the palace finally came to an end.

After seeing off the guests, Queen Elsa looked back and saw Duke Medwin standing in the shadows with a cautious face.

"Your Majesty, I did as you asked..."

Queen Elsa smiled: "Very good."

"Then...Charlie he..."

"William, you are my son, so Charlie is naturally my grandson. But this grandson is too naughty, of course I need to discipline you. Charlie is living with me these days, you don't have to worry."

The scene where Queen Elsa calls William, who is older than her, her son is very strange, but it is still true.

Duke Mordwin had a bitter face, but he did not dare to go against Queen Elsa's will, so he nodded his head in agreement and saluted.

"I didn't expect you to become a grandma." Colin came over and joked.

Queen Elsa glanced at Colin in a charming manner, and said angrily, "Do you despise me for getting old?"

"How? I even suspect that the elf bloodline on your body is too strong, and I am afraid that you will become a 'Longevity Seed'."

Queen Elsa giggled, shook her head and said, "Half-elf can't become a 'Longevity'."

Afterwards, she restrained her smile and asked worriedly, "Is it really appropriate for you to ask William to do this kind of thing? He's actually...not smart."

"It's because he's 'not smart' that I chose him." Colin said with a smile, "The lie of an honest man is like a fishbone in rice, which is hard to detect, but can pierce your throat inadvertently. "

Queen Elsa savoured it for a while before she nodded in agreement: "Well, it does make sense. What should we do next?"

"Of course, the city gate is open below, and we welcome Marquis Vincent to Silvermoon City."

————————————

Three days later, Viscount Oston left Silvermoon City and came to Red Maple Manor.

At this time, the Red Maple Manor had been requisitioned by the Eastern Border Army, and it had completely turned into a huge military camp.

Viscount Auston walked all the way into the manor,

I saw Marquis Vincent who was having dinner in the restaurant.

"Lord Marquis!"

"Viscount Auston, you have worked hard all the way, let's eat first."

"Yes."

The two finished their dinner quickly but gracefully, and then Marquis Vincent asked, "Silvermoon City and his party, how is the situation?"

"On the surface, everything seems to be going well. Queen Elsa has agreed to your two conditions, and even Viscount Angele has expressed her willingness to pledge allegiance to the Eastern Territory."

"Oh?" Marquis Vincent raised his eyebrows, "Why did Viscount Angele betray the North?"

"According to himself, it was because he discovered that Duke St. Hilde wanted to sacrifice Vera as an excuse to enter the half-elf kingdom, and Vera was Viscount Angele's beloved, so he was right. The Duke of St. Hilde is resentful."

"Just because of a woman?" Marquis Vincent asked suspiciously.

"Yes. In addition, this time Vera did not die in the half-elf palace, which is also due to Viscount Angele. Obviously, he is also worried that this move will anger Duke Saint Hilde, and even put the failure of the North in the half-elf kingdom. Blame him."

"Well, this is a bit more reasonable." Marquis Vincent pondered, but then asked again, "Then why do you say 'everything on the surface'?"

"Because I found out that Viscount Angele has something to hide from us."

"What did he hide?"

"Hide the fact that there are still eight thousand black cavalry remnants in Yinyue City at this time!"

"Black Cavalry?" Marquis Vincent sat up straight and his face became solemn.

Although the main force of the Black Cavalry had just been annihilated, Marquis Vincent already had a psychological shadow on this terrifying northern army.

Under the circumstance of Shadow Canyon, the Pegasus Army paid nearly twice the cost of casualties to win the ambush battle.

For such a result, Marquis Vincent did not have the slightest joy of victory, but only deep humiliation and fear.

Therefore, he chose to continue to lead his army northward, hoping to win a hearty victory in Silvermoon City to wash away the shame of Shadow Canyon.

But I didn't expect that there was still a remnant of the Black Cavalry in Yinyue City.

"Who told you this news?"

"William Mordwin."

"You believe him?"

"I know William, and he shouldn't lie to me. Besides, I also asked a few other half-elf nobles who are friends with the Eastern Territory, and they all said that they had seen a black cavalry army enter Silvermoon City."

"What about Queen Elsa? What is her attitude?"

"I'm afraid she is a puppet raised by the North, and what she said may not be believed."

Marquis Vincent nodded and frowned: "So, they just pretended to submit to us, trying to paralyze us?"

"should be."

"Hehe, how arrogant!" Marquis Vincent's face was a little grim, "How many troops are there in Silvermoon City now?"

"William told me that the Silvermoon Guard in the Half-Elves Kingdom had just experienced a coup d'etat and suffered heavy losses. Although a batch of new recruits was urgently replenished, the establishment of 30,000 people was restored. However, the most veterans with certain combat effectiveness were among them. That's 20,000 people.

In addition, that is the remnant of the 8,000-strong black cavalry army. "

"The Silver Moon Guard is nothing to be afraid of." Marquis Vincent waved his hand with a look of disdain.

But then, his tone became solemn again: "The key is the eight thousand black cavalry."

Viscount Oston nodded in agreement: "Yes, William also told me that the eight thousand black cavalry troops are not actually in Silvermoon City."

"Oh? Where are they?"

Viscount Auston came to the military map hanging on the wall and pointed to a location on it: "They are hiding on this hill to the southwest of Silvermoon City!"

Marquis Vincent squinted his eyes for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "It seems that the North is preparing to falsely lure us into Silvermoon City, and then take advantage of our unpreparedness to control us, and then let the black knight hiding outside the city. The army suddenly attacked from the rear and overwhelmed our army."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Marquis Vincent snorted coldly, and said with disdain: "Such a clumsy plan, hehe, it seems that Viscount Angele, who is said to be under the tutelage of Marquis Garcia, is nothing more than that!"

"Of course!" Viscount Auston flattered. "Not to mention that even Marquis Garcia has been defeated by your Lord Marquis. What kind of storm can he make as Viscount Angele?"

Marquis Vincent raised his chin with a smug look on his face, and ordered loudly:

"I'll give you 40,000 people. We will go to Silvermoon City tomorrow. Once you arrive, you will be surrounded by the city. No matter how tempted by the half-elf and the north, you should not enter the city.

Seal Silvermoon City for me, and don't let any soldier come out!

I personally led an army of 60,000 people to surround and kill the remnant of the black cavalry army that was hiding outside the city.

This time, I want to completely make the black cavalry disappear from this continent! "

"Yes, Lord Marquis!"
