A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 281. Chapter 281

A battle was fought vigorously, but it was interrupted by the sudden appearance of a man who had been’dead’ for several months.

The Geshurs retreated in a hurry, and Aaron Landis somehow won this battlefield victory.

In the afternoon, in the Northland Fortress, Garlan was greeted by the horse commander Heya who hurried over to the political affairs room.

As soon as Heya reported the situation of the Northern War to Garland, the door was pushed open, and the one-eyed blond knight walked in quickly.

The armor on Kayjos, who had just left the battlefield, was still stained with blood, and he was surrounded by blood.

As soon as he entered the door, he leaned over and knelt towards Garlan.

“I’m sorry, Your Majesty, I put you in a dangerous situation because I don’t know people.”

His hands on the ground clenched hard into a fist.

His head dropped deeply, and his voice was full of annoyance and self-blame.

“It’s all my fault.”

Although the matter of Mitayas has not been fully disclosed, as his superior, Kehos has already learned about it.

Because he was worried about Garlan’s safety, he specially sent his strongest general to protect Garlan on his behalf. Unexpectedly, this turned out to be the biggest crisis for King Garlan.

He never expected that the knight commander who had followed him for many years and had been loyal to him would do such a rebellious thing.

Had it not been for Huimos to show up in time…

Kayjos felt terrified and regretted every time he thought of this.

“You did make a mistake of ignorance, and you have a certain responsibility.”

Gallan said,

“But this is not a fault that can make you feel ashamed.”

“The person who really should be ashamed and responsible for this is not here.”

The young king leaned over and stretched out his hand to his knight.

“So, look up, Kaihus, you should know that I can’t blame you for this kind of thing.”

Kaihus looked up, his eyes met those bright golden eyes.

At this moment, the depression that had been stuck in his heart suddenly dissipated.

During this time, he has been very anxious.

As long as he thinks about the prince, he feels distressed and uncomfortable. In addition, he is worried about not being able to follow Garlan, and his mood becomes very bad.

Later, when he learned that Mitayas almost killed Garlan, his extreme anxiety triggered his violent mood.

Even if he kept fighting on the battlefield, his violent emotions couldn’t be suppressed. The fierce fire in his heart seemed to burn all over his body, causing pain.

Until this moment, when holding his prince’s hand, whether it was full of anxiety or the violent emotions that filled his whole body, Garland’s clear eyes looked at him soothed.

Kaihus let out a sigh of relief, and his mind became clear again.

Holding Garlan’s outstretched hand, he stood up.

The green pupils stared at his prince, and the smile that had not been shown for a long time returned to the handsome face of the knight that had been somber for a long time.

Like the sun reappearing, the clouds have disappeared.

He squeezed Garlan’s hand, looked at the boy intently, and said softly, “I am very worried about you, Prince.”

“I know.”

Gallan raised his head and smiled slightly.

The familiar smile on the boy’s face calmed the knight’s mood even more.

“Sorry, Kayjos, I have worried you and others during this time.”

Garland smiled and said,

“However, as I said at the beginning, you also have a part of the responsibility. Therefore, all your achievements in the Northern Territory this time have been offset.”

Gallan turned his head and said to Heya, who was standing aside, “Remember, when you count the merits after this war is over, all the parts that belong to Kayjos will be crossed out.”

Heya was stunned for a moment, and he stopped talking, as if he wanted to intercede with Kayjos, but his gaze fell on Kayjos’s face. Seeing Kayjos’s indifferent look, he shook. Shaking his head, he stopped talking.

Kaihus, who had lost all of his great military exploits, didn’t care about it. He looked at his prince softly, opened his mouth, and wanted to say something.

Suddenly, there was the sound of footsteps nearby.

A tall figure came out of the side room and walked quickly towards this side.

“Long time no see, Kaijos.”

Huimos said, I don’t know whether it was intentional or unintentional.

No, it must be intentional.

As Huimos said, he stretched out his hand and pressed it on the hand that Kayhus held Garland.

Others couldn’t see it, but Kayhus could feel it, and a strong force grabbed his hand and separated him from the prince.

Kehos glanced at Huimos.

Hiemos’ eyes narrowed slightly.

The two knights looked at each other.

There seemed to be an invisible air current colliding with each other in the room, and there was a faint tendency to surging under the continuous confrontation between the two.

When Gallan didn’t look good, he quickly blocked it.

“I know you are all excited to meet again after a long absence.”

He stood in the middle, raised his hand, holding the arms of the two of them one by one.

“but–”

He said in a coaxing tone,

“Now it’s time for dinner. No matter what, I will eat dinner first, okay?”

Under Garlan’s push, although the two knights were still staring at each other unwillingly, they were still obediently pushed out of the door by Garlan alone and with one hand.

With a snap, the room closed.

There is one person left in the room.

Heya: “…”

The commander of the Northern Legion who was left in the room looked baffled.

As the only honest person in the room who didn’t know the situation and knew nothing about the dark tide between the two knights, he was just forgotten by Garlan and others.

…………

Although in this battle, because of the sudden appearance of Heimos, the Geshur who suspected that Aaron Landis had set up a conspiracy trap temporarily retreated, it is impossible for the Geshur to withdraw from the border in this way.

After investigating and finding that there were no traps, the Gaishu army naturally made a comeback.

However, they were at a disadvantage in the previous wars. Now, Aaron Landis’ army has once again increased its strength and a powerful general.

Another important point is that the presence of Huimos on the battlefield greatly reduced the morale of the soldiers.

As a result, on the next several battlefields, the Geishi army was ultimately defeated.

After successive defeats, the Geishers saw that it was impossible to take advantage of them, and their armaments could not be sustained, so they had no choice but to retreat.

Another great victory in the north.

Not only did the Geshurs fail to plunder enough food and supplies in this battle, they were once again seriously injured.

Yili advocated the launch of this war in order to transfer the contradiction of domestic resource shortage due to the failure of the war, which caused his aristocratic people to become more and more dissatisfied with it.

It is said that the country is turbulent, and it is estimated that it will not be able to invade south again for a long time.

After the Geshurs retreated, a grand banquet was held in the North Fortress.

It was night time, but the entire Northland Fortress was brightly lit, with lights on in every household.

Especially in the huge square in the middle of the fortress, countless bonfires were burning in it, illuminating the square like daylight.

The meat was roasting on the campfire, and the fat fell on the burning wood, making a sizzling noise.

A strong smell of meat filled the entire square, and everyone was eating meat while chatting and laughing wantonly, cheers and laughter resounding under the night sky.

At Xi Tianmudi, everyone just sat on the ground like this, cross-legged barbecues on the bonfire. Once it’s baked, you can tear it off and share it with the people around the campfire.

When the enthusiasm came, someone just pulled their throats and howled like a wolf howling.

The people next to him roared loudly, or someone just pulled open their clothes, and danced vigorously to the singing of their comrades in arms howling wolf.

It is called a banquet, but there is no sense of refinement of aristocratic banquets, only the roughness and boldness that belong to the army.

However, this is what makes it even more lively.

This is a dinner to enjoy victory, and tonight is a time for revelry.

Garland and his party were also among them, enjoying the campfire dinner with strong northern battlefield customs.

Hea was originally worried that King Gallan was not used to this atmosphere, but he was relieved when he watched Gallan sitting in the upper seat and looked around with a smile and interest.

Kehuos and Huimos were sitting on the side seats, with the roasted tender meat, fresh fruits and vegetables, and water and wine naturally placed in front of them.

Women in the North are used to being bold and unrestrained. They grew up in a city where wars occur at such moments, and they are no less courageous than men.

They are accustomed to being refreshed and simple, and their mobility far exceeds that of women in other regions.

The two knights existed like heroes in the hearts of the Northlanders. At this moment, seeing the two men sitting side by side, several Northland women’s eyes lit up, and then they leaned forward generously.

For them, the dew love that can spend the night with these two is something they cannot ask for.

As romantic as Kay Huos, it is natural for beautiful women to come.

After all, during this period of time, he was in a bad mood and didn’t have any extra thoughts at all. In addition, he had been fighting in Kanal before, and Kaihus had the final say, he was almost half a year old.

It is rare for him to get rid of his knots, just to have another chance to indulge like this tonight, of course he will not be polite.

Soon, Kaihuos was surrounded by several beauties from the North, and they were definitely beauties at the level of the beauty.

When everyone looked over, they all felt that the scorching knight’s romantic name was really worthy of the name.

These few succeeded in staying with Kaihuos, and they were immediately satisfied.

But looking at Hoymos, almost all the women came home.

Basically, he was forced to retreat by the invisible aura of rejection exuded by Heimos before he got close.

In this way, the women immediately understood that Master Huimos had no such interest at all, so they simply gave up.

Although Kayhus was in the warm fragrant nephrite, he glanced at Huimos beside him from time to time.

Seeing that Huimos didn’t let anyone approach, although he kept drinking water and wine, but his eyes were only staring at Garland sitting in the seat, his eyes showed a little satisfaction.

If that guy dared to let any woman get close…huh!

Kaihus snorted secretly in his heart.

Not long after this, the open-air bonfire dinner was the most lively time, and a guard hurried over to report to Garlan.

Then Gallan got up and left the seat, apparently something had left beforehand.

Although Kaihus had been making affection with the beauties around him, he was also always paying attention to the situation on Garlan’s side. Seeing Garlan left, he subconsciously got up and followed.

But he hadn’t moved yet, and Heimos, who was next to him, had already stood up a step ahead of him, and quickly followed him.

Seeing Huimos’s back, Kehos flashed his eyes and sat back again.

A woman next to him also noticed Heimos’ departure, and couldn’t help asking curiously.

“Master Kehos, what type of women does Master Huimos like? He has been in the North for so many years, and I have never seen a woman next to him.”

She grinned and said, “You know him so well. Why don’t you tell me what kind of Heimos-sama likes? I can also introduce him…”

Halfway through the conversation, a slender finger pressed against her lips.

The blond knight, who was holding her with one arm around her and holding her mouth with the other, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, looking at her tenderly.

“no.”

He spoke softly to the person in his arms,

“He can’t, no one can hit his idea, you know?”

“why?”

Kaihus smiled.

“Because he already belongs to someone.”

He said, like a joke, but also very serious.

“What he said, even a strand of hair belongs to that person, do you understand?”

Of course, the beauties around them all showed a dazed expression to the words of the Cavaliers’ unclear meaning.

…………

………………

After receiving the news from the messenger, Garlan left the open-air banquet and returned to his temporary residence.

When he came to the Northland, he sent a message to call someone.

Now, the man he summoned finally arrived here before he left the Northland.

“Praise the great goddess Afdomir, she guards your majesty and makes you more beautiful than all the world as always.”

As soon as he entered the door, the familiar sound of the aria came into Gallan’s ears.

A handsome young man with long black hair tied up behind him stood in the room, dressed in a refreshing cyan outfit.

He carried a cyan bow behind his back, his face was full of smiles, and the peach blossom eyes that Garlan looked at were slightly bent, revealing a little romantic charm.

Shuros’ eyes fell on Garlan’s face, and after looking at it for a while, he showed a satisfied look.

He put one hand on his chest, looked at Garlan deeply, and continued speaking in a singing tone.

“Ah, Your Majesty, your magnificent and beautiful face like a thousand stars has washed my soul. I feel that my soul that has been deeply hurt just now has been saved because of you…”

“speak English.”

“Well, when I was walking through the square just now, I saw a bunch of naked | men with naked upper body jumping and crying wolves and howling ghosts, but thought they were singing, made me think I was going to be blind and deaf.”

The bard who admired the goddess of love and beauty felt that his heart had been severely damaged.

Fortunately, Gallan appeared in time, and, relying on his majesty’s beauty and prosperity to wash his eyes, he was finally relieved after being hit by a crit.

Vaguely guessing Shuros’s thoughts, Gallan chuckled, unwaveringly, he had become accustomed to it.

“By the way, Your Majesty, is it something you call me over?”

“Well, I have an important task for you to do.”

“Sure enough… Your Majesty, you are really good at calling people. Since I got on your thief ship, I have hardly rested in the past few years.”

Either traveled all over the country to check the road conditions, or sneaked into Kanal to investigate intelligence, and constantly sent to Thar the living conditions of the people everywhere, and monitored the nobles who had done anything wrong, and so on.

Fortunately, a free and wanton bard, was accused of making a round and round.

Raising his hand to rub his side neck, Shuros complained.

“Call me here, I thought there was something good waiting for me, such as rewarding me with a few beauties from the Northland. I heard that the beauties in the Northland are very bold and enthusiastic…”

Gallan smiled slightly.

“It’s useless to give you more beauties, you are still a virgin now.”

Shulos, who claimed to be a romantic and suave bard: “…”

One hit kill.

The bard couldn’t say a word for a while.

Your Majesty, is it really okay for you to say such cruel words with a smile with such a flourishing beauty——

The bard, who was poked with blood, fought back in anger.

“Your Majesty, who is also a virgin, are you qualified to say such things to me!”

Galan, the VI virgin: “…”

Just when the two were hurting each other with extremely cruel words, there was a creak and the door of the room was suddenly pushed open.

The gazes of the two facing each other fell on Himos who walked in.

Huimos raised his eyes and glanced at both of them.

He suddenly said: “Qualified, because your majesty will soon be not.”

Shuros: “???”

Gallan: “?????……!!!”

Gallan: The amount of information about the hemp egg is huge! I pretended not to understand.
