Chapter 691 Jingyao's Discussion

The battle of Silvermoon Castle allowed the Austrian army to defeat the orcs' reconnaissance force.

But this did not stop the overall decline on the battlefield.

One day after the battle, Schroeder led the main force to arrive. Arda and the troops sent by lords from various places had a total of more than 6,000 people.

This greatly strengthened the defense of Silvermoon Castle, and Joyce's heart, which had been hanging, finally let go.

To their great joy, another day later, the Royal Capital Knights who retreated from the Blackstone Plain also arrived, and Princess Catherine was among them.

"Your Highness!"

Schroeder led Joyce to kneel on one knee and salute Catherine. There was a hint of excitement in the old knight's voice.

"Long time no see, respected Knight Schroeder... Now I should call you Sir."

Catherine and Schroeder had known each other many years ago, at the Watcher Fortress.

The two met in this scene, and they were really full of mixed feelings.

The ruined Silvermoon Castle soon became a large construction site. Soldiers, civilian workers, and planes recruited from all around began to repair the castle.

The first joint meeting was held in a newly cleaned house.

"You should issue an order to prohibit the troops withdrawing here from continuing to flee westward!"

Schroeder asked the princess, and Catherine agreed.

It's time to organize a second resistance.

——

In the tent, the orc general Callum looked coldly at Amur who was kneeling on the ground.

"Are you really not lying?"

"You dare not give me a thousand courage."

Amur reported to him what happened in Silvermoon Castle, including those strange weapons.

Callum narrowed his eyes.

The main force of the army led by the great chief has entered the human world, and the orcs' war horses are galloping across the vast northeastern plains of Aldor.

Generals from all walks of life rushed to capture cities and territories, and his mission was to keep fighting westward until he saw the sea... or he couldn't fight anymore.

But Callum would not believe that the troops could only reach Silvermoon Castle.

It was just a small reconnaissance team that was defeated, no big deal.

He picked up the wine glass and gulped it down, wiping his mouth.

"Let's go, let's see whether the grassland warriors' swords are more powerful or the human firearms are more powerful."

——

The recent situation of Jingyao is not good, and bad news comes one after another.

The fall of the Watcher Fortress, the rebellion of the Bradley family, the failure of Sunset Valley...

The young King Rodney XVIII was in a state of panic.

At the royal meeting, a group of ministers accompanied the king with a frown.

Some people were relaxed and even a little happy.

It would not be a bad thing if the knights led by Princess Catherine were annihilated.

"Your Majesty!"

Prime Minister Rupert suggested: "Since we have military tickets shipped from the northwest bay, we should organize a large army as soon as possible."

"You are right!"

The king looked at his younger brother, "Eurico, is your work going well?"

The young man lost some of his frivolity, his eyes were full of enthusiasm, and he seemed to have finally found a cause to fight for.

He stood up and bowed to his brother.

"The army is expanding. We have recruited nearly 5,000 people in a month. My God, new soldiers are still entering the barracks in an endless stream."

"The method of military tickets is really wonderful. After those hungry civilians really bought food with military tickets, they rushed to sign up."

The king nodded, "Okay, good, but they must be trained well. Courage, discipline and fighting skills are indispensable. I don't want to recruit only a bunch of good-for-nothings."

"Please rest assured, your majesty!"

Eurico nodded heavily.

Rodney XVIII felt relieved. Once the elite of the Royal Capital Knights were really finished, he would not only worry about the orcs, but also the two nominal ministers in the south.

Everyone continued to discuss the situation.

Earl Merlin pointed at a map.

"If only the Yellow Earth Land was lost, the orcs would still lack room to maneuver, because there are still many mountains in the south blocking them. But if they occupied the Black Stone Plain and continued to break through to the Giant Elephant Plain to the east, below was the Thorn Land adjacent to the Royal Territory, separated by only a golden river, the orcs would be able to pour down like a flood, and continue to flood the rich southern part of the kingdom."

The earl's words gave everyone a chill.

"It's all Catherine's fault. She's really useless!"

Prince Yuriko said angrily, "Why can't the orcs be stopped in the Yellow Earth Land!"

Many people cast dissatisfied eyes at the prince.

"Well, we can't blame Catherine entirely."

Prince Jasim defended his niece, "After all, no one expected the rebellion of the Bradley family to almost give the entire loess land to the orcs."

No mistake, one sentence, one post, one content, one 6, one book, one bar, take a look!

While everyone was discussing, a servant came quickly and handed the king a piece of letter paper.

Rodney XVIII read it and his brows relaxed suddenly.

"Everyone! The kingdom's army defeated the orc army in a place called Silver Moon Castle! And Catherine also evacuated there safely."

The ministers were in an uproar.

The king's voice was somewhat flexible, "Thank the merciful Heavenly Father, thank those brave Northwesterners."

Northwesterners?

Earl Merlin asked, "Is it Earl Graman's army?"

"That's right!"

The king beamed with joy and kissed the letter hard.

The true feeling came out: "My dear Paul, how many miracles are you going to bring me?"

This aroused everyone's interest, and the depression just now was swept away.

"Is it possible to counterattack?"

Many people immediately raised this issue.

But after this letter was circulated, everyone realized that the Alda army of only more than 500 people had defeated the invading 1,000 orc cavalry by virtue of its geographical location and weapon advantages.

The scale of this battle is also too small and seems to have little effect.

But in the face of repeated failures, this is indeed good news, especially since Her Highness Catherine is safe.

Rupert said: "Your Highness, everyone, I think we need to start negotiations with the orcs before the new army is formed?"

"Negotiating with the enemy? Impossible!"

The ministers all exclaimed.

The palace minister was too confused, so he just had to compromise with Giles. After all, they were all civilized people.

Orcs are nothing, they are a bunch of barbarians who only know how to fight and win.

"Of course it's not a real negotiation. This is delaying them, releasing some smoke screens, and trying to find ways to make them delay their offensive."

Rupert explained patiently to his colleagues.

"I want to go there personally to find out what these guys are thinking, and whether the Bradley family can bring them back to the kingdom."

The words of the palace minister made waves in the king's heart.

The recent series of bad news needs to give the kingdom a chance to breathe.

"In this case, my dear Prime Minister, I will appoint you..."

"I'll go!"

Prince Jassim stood up and said without hesitation: "The Prime Minister is old, how can he run such a long distance?"
