Marquis Bochmond is a middle-aged general in his 50s. ●⌒, he has a figure nearly two meters tall, with a tiger back and a bear waist, wide ears, thick eyebrows and big eyes. Although he is definitely not a handsome man, he is definitely a great man with a strong hormone aura. He is full of manhood and has the courage of a strong warrior.

Of course, this general who led a mere tens of thousands of mobs and forced himself to withstand the siege of more than 100,000 Karin's army, was as strong as a rock. His mental state was somewhat depressed. Although he tried his best to show a majestic and vile expression on his face, he also felt a bit like a balloon. No matter how scary it was, it would be completely pierced by a needle.

If you think about it carefully, it is not surprising. He clearly led a group of mobs to defend Helin City and was regaining strategic advantages for his lord bit by bit. As long as he fought carefully and steadily, the "Emperor" of Ikan would definitely win the final victory with the support of the majority. Unfortunately, it took only a day and night to lose all the strategic achievements that Marquis Bohmond achieved in four months. This kind of blow from heaven to hell, as long as he is a normal person, will definitely feel unloving. Not only did this marquis not really angry, but he not only personally blocked the back and covered the "Emperor" of Ikan to escape back to the imperial capital, but he actually gathered a few defeated soldiers and quickly restored the basic city defense of Helin City. He really deserved the comment of "stubbornness and hardship".

However, even this iron man who seemed to be cast from steel, there was a minimum crack in his spirit at this time.

He was a very graceful knight. He still opened the door and put Lu Xi, who was under the banner of the envoy, and entered the city. However, the place where he met the other party was not his own city lord's mansion, but next to a branch fortress behind the city gate. When Lu Xi met with the other party, the guard was personally pushing a scorpion crossbow into the hole of the city wall with several personal guards.

This should have been a heavy physical work done by labor slave soldiers, but the Marquis had to do it himself. It is conceivable how scarce the labor in Helin City is.

"Is His Highness Caterina's lobbyist?" The Marquis looked at Lu Xi and smiled coldly, as if using this expression to express his "resolute and unyielding" position. The upper and lower levels looked at Lu Xi with their scrutiny eyes. The expression calmed a little, and he said slowly: "Since you will be a lobbyist for her, it means that your high official should be the trusted person of Your Highness. However, I know your female chief, but I think you are more intimate."

Although his expression was not too fierce, his voice was a little stiff, and he obviously wanted to use this method to put more pressure on Lu Xi.

"...I have been running outside, responsible for some field affairs, and I didn't rush back to the highness's army until yesterday. Because I have some confidence in my eloquence, I don't want to see a famous general like you who is a model of knights, so I volunteered to enter the city. I hope you don't blame me for coming uninvited." Lu Xi said. I thought to myself that I didn't actually talk nonsense.

"Oh... is that true? That highness is surrounded by his highness! If the nobleman is not a woman, you must have been regarded as the prime minister with your momentum, demeanor and calmness. You must have been admired by the world." He sighed. He could hear that this was actually praised sincerely.

Well, it’s this kind of classic misunderstanding that makes people helpless... But Lu Xi was too lazy to refute it. In fact, in order not to let the other party be wary of, he was only wearing a very ordinary officer uniform in the Karin army, with the sword of the Dawn Knight hanging around his waist. Of course, when he replaced the star robe that looked extremely gorgeous and extraordinary Misilian cheeks, and put on a very popular NP outfit, Lu Xi’s appearance became even more conspicuous. How could he look like a heroic "beautiful girl" knight, it is easy to remind people of the group of beautiful girls led by Seerberia and Onia around Karin. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is an armed maid team of part-time personal maids and attendant knights.

If you don’t say it, who can guess the true identity of Lu Xi, the great master Berenkast, right away?

So Lu Xi just smiled distractedly: "My identity is not important. Lord Marquis, what is important is that facts have developed to this subtle level, and your decision is the most important thing today. This historical city that has been around for thousands of years, and the 20,000 soldiers in the city. Their fate depends on your wise decision."

While talking, Lu Xi's eyes flashed hiddenly on the soldiers around him. He saw many people showing their expressions of movement. It was like a group of drowning people who saw the last straw.

"I have never been a wise person, ma'am. I don't want to think about who is right and wrong with His Highness Caterina and His Majesty. In fact, this is not something that I am just an ordinary warrior who can question. I only know that Your Majesty has kindness to me and is my lord. I must repay him with death, that's all." Although he directly expressed his refusal, the very tough Marquis of the Marquis barely squeezed out a harmonious smile on the way. Obviously, even when facing a "harmless beauty" like Lu Xi, it would be hard to have a black face. What's more, treating noble and beautiful "lady" with politeness and demeanor, this was originally one of the traditional knightly virtues of Auckland, and it would not change anything with the hostile position of both sides.

...Okay, although the Marquis is a white-eyed person who cannot tell the difference between male and female, to be fair, Lu Xi's first impression of him is still very good. In fact, no one will dislike such a tough guy who is strong and undefeated, while maintaining a sense of honor and demeanor as a warrior, even if the positions of both sides are hostile.

"After a person dies, nothing will be left. After this battle, His Majesty Yiken ruined the strategic advantage you had won for several months of bloody battles, and there will be no chance of turning the tables again. If His Highness ascended the throne and later generations commented on you, they would not know a brave and resolute general, but just a poor man who was foolish and filial, and was a mantissue who was foolish and filial, and was really willing to do so?" Lu Xi sighed, his voice and emotion, as if he was really sighing for the name behind the marquis. If it were someone else, he would probably believe it immediately.

However, the Marquis of Bochmond couldn't help but smile: "In this battle, I was neither for fame nor for profit, nor for showing myself that I was willing to sell it for a good price in front of the real winner. As for fame behind me, I was dead at that time, so I was even less in consideration. As long as I was alive, I was worthy of my heart."

He glanced at Lu Xi and added before the latter spoke: "In addition, I have brought my whole family to Helin City and have been ready to burn together. Your Highness the Princess wants this city? Of course it doesn't matter, just walk over my body."

...Asolutely, this guy has already had ambition to die, and even has predicted and prepared for all the topics that the envoys persuaded surrender would approach. Such a person is not completely shaken by words. Even if Lu Xi's ventriloquy has reached level 99, it is useless.

"So that's it. Although I dare not say that the general is righteous, I still admire his enlightenment!" Lu Xi sighed and showed a lost expression: "If every 20,000 troops in this city have the awareness of you, I might persuade Your Highness to bypass Helin City."

Marquis Bohmond said nothing. He never expected that everyone in the city would have the same heart as him. However, he was a man who was good at governing the army and was extremely charming. He controlled the most important facilities and defense nodes of the city for his loyal officers and personal soldiers. Although the rest of the soldiers were not necessarily willing to die with him, they still had some awe. Moreover, Helin City is a well-known city in the world after all. There have been countless battles in history where there are few enemies and many people standing tall. The tall main game behind him is the mountain in the minds of the defenders in the city.

Bohmond himself and the fortress were the support of the defenders to persist, so he could basically be sure that as long as he was still alive, nothing would happen to this city. If he died, then let's talk about it again... I hope he could delay enough time before he died to win the chance to reorganize and fight again for the lord who fled back to the imperial capital?

In fact, as long as he controls the imperial capital, His Majesty Iken, who has been defeated again and again, is not completely powerless to fight again. As long as he can give some conditions that the female Duke of Disasha cannot refuse, persuade the army of Dragon Fort to go north to serve the king, and then understand the army with Duke Lancaster, he may be able to oppress the Central Imperial Guards who are unwilling to express their opinions with absolute military advantage.

In this way, the number and quality of the troops gathered under the "Emperor" still have the upper hand, and the fertile land in the Auckland capital and the southern fertile land. The throat of fate is still firmly held in his own hands.

This is probably the reason why Marquis Bohmond still wants to stick to it.

How could my subordinates and I be shaken by me? The Marquis thought so firmly.

"Please leave, dear lady, in such a chaotic season, it should not be a stage for weak women like you to walk. You are willing to risk your life to enter the city to convince us. This is really worthy of respect, but unfortunately, I can only let you down." The Marquis smiled and said, "The battle will probably begin soon. Please go back immediately. Tell Your Highness, I will wait for her and step on my body to occupy this Helin City."

Lu Xi smiled slightly and suddenly spoke: "If I remember correctly, your army, besides the defeated soldiers recently collected, are the main forces that you can fight, reliable and trustworthy, all of them have brought you from the fiefdom of the Sezel Province?" (To be continued.)
