Heroes of the Invincible Knight
Chapter 76 The Council of Elders
The elders have always been served by some elderly knights from the Lanster family. These elders are generally elders of various lines.
The Council of Elders is also an institution for these elders to discuss matters. Usually, some conflicts of interest in various branches are mainly mediated through the discussions of the Council of Elders.
After all, the Lanster family is a Hou family that has been passed down for hundreds of years.
The House of Lancet, which seems to be calm and peaceful, actually has complex relationships, entangled conflicts of interests, and constant infighting. It is far from being as pure as the Hunter family.
Originally, the power of city management and the army was in the hands of the main family, that is, Marquis Wade, who was very powerful.
And the Council of Elders is only for coordination and persuasion, without much real power, but now they want to hold a meeting to decide the management of Piaoxue City, and other things,
This is actually a blatant attempt to take the opportunity to seize power, and it is still the power in Lint's hands,
When Marquis Wade set off on the expedition, he gave Lint all the authority over the city management, but because Lint was not a knight, he was not directly appointed as the city lord.
Because Marquis Wade himself has the strength of a peak knight, and he is firmly in control of the Jingbei Army. Naturally, no one dares to defy his will in Piaoxue City, at least no one dares to confront it openly.
With the endorsement of Marquis Wade, Lint can naturally act as the acting city lord of Piaoxue City,
But now the Jingbei Army was defeated in the wilderness, and Marquis Wade was besieged at Fort Hull,
In the lineage of Marquis Wade, the eldest and the second two knight-ranked strong men went out with the army and are still alive and dead, and the third is only a quasi-knight for the time being.
Not to mention Lint, I'm afraid he can't even beat an ordinary soldier. Now that Marquis Wade's lineage doesn't even have a knight on his face, it's no wonder that some people are starting to get active.
"Is my power so easy to win?"
Understanding is understanding, but Lin Te is by no means a big belly person, because he was unable to practice since he was a child, Lin Te is actually more vengeful than others,
He never showed an iota of weakness to be bullied. From childhood to adulthood, anyone who dared to bully him was punished by Lin Te and had to beg for mercy. This time he dared to take advantage of the chaos to seize power and had to be left behind by these old guys. A profound lesson cannot be taught.
...
Lint's residence is not far from the meeting hall of the Council of Elders, both in the same area, and he was outside the meeting hall in a short time.
Seeing that it was Lin Te, the guard outside the door did not dare to stop him, allowing Lin Te and Sander to enter the courtyard and arrive at the door of the meeting.
Just as the two were about to enter the conference hall, there were several people discussing in the hall. Lint heard the movement and waved to Sander, signaling him to stop and not go in.
"The request for help sent to the capital has not yet been answered."
"The royal capital is too far away. Even if you use Fengniao to deliver the letter, it will take two days. It will take at least a few days for the royal capital to discuss the countermeasures."
"Then wait for the news."
"We can't wait for the news from the royal capital. The water can't quench our thirst. We should send people to the river valley."
"Well, this is the right thing to do. I will send someone to the valley for help later."
The person who presided over the meeting was not familiar with Lin Te, but he also recognized that this was an old man from the third room named Fury. In terms of seniority, this person is a generation higher than Marquis Wade.
He also had the peak strength of a knight when he was young, but now that he is old and has some injuries on his body, his strength is naturally not as good as before.
But although his strength has declined, his heart has always been hot. These years, he has always made small moves, trying to grab some benefits.
Although Marquis Wade was a bit annoyed, but since he was also surnamed Lanster, and he couldn't pose any real threat, he didn't deal with him harshly.
I didn't expect him to jump so high this time, connecting with many elders of the branches, and doing things to seize power.
"What about Oze from the Fifth Legion?"
Ou Ze is the head of the Fifth Army. The Fifth Army has not long been established, and its strength in all aspects is weaker. Even the head of the army, Ou Ze, only has the peak strength of a knight. He is the only one among the heads of the Jingbei Army who does not have the strength of a great knight. man of,
Marquis Wade considered that the Fifth Legion was not strong enough, and it was impossible for Piaoxuecheng to be defenseless, so he left the Fifth Legion to guard Piaoxuecheng to deal with some unexpected situations.
But now the fifth army, which was originally the weakest, has now become the only regular army in Piaoxue City, and has the ability to control the situation in Piaoxuecheng in a certain sense.
"Ozer hasn't expressed support for us yet, but he hasn't opposed either."
"Then leave him alone, and tell Lint to come over and tell him the resolution of the Council of Elders."
Ou Ze's behavior is obviously trying to be a fencer,
But Fury doesn't care. In Fury's mind, as long as Oze can help each other, without the support of the army,
Just relying on Lint, that trash who can't cultivate, there will be no other results in front of the council of elders except obediently, and there will be no other results. The dozen or so elders sitting here are the combat power of a dozen or so knights.
What did Lindt use against the Council of Elders?
"Stop shouting!"
Lint pushed open the door of the meeting room at this time, strode in,
Sander followed Lint closely, and stared at the veterans in the field after entering the field.
"I don't know what Elder Fury wants me to do."
Lint looked directly at Fury and asked,
Under Lint's sharp gaze, Fury was a little guilty for a while,
But soon Fury reacted again,
Lin Te is obviously just a waste who can't cultivate, and he is afraid of what he will do.
Immediately, Fu Rui strengthened his momentum and said in a rather strong tone:
"The collective resolution of the Council of Elders has just been passed, and the next affairs of Floating Snow City will be taken over by the Council of Elders.
To call you over is to inform you, and you don't have to worry about the next thing. "
"Oh? Lord Marquis ordered me to take full charge of the affairs of Piaoxue City when he set off for the expedition. Have you obtained the consent of Lord Marquis to take over Snow City?"
"Wade led the army to a big defeat. He made a big mistake. We, the Council of Elders, are now here to correct his mistakes."
In fact, no matter whether he is defeated or not, if Marquis Wade has returned to Snow City, Fury wouldn't dare to say that he would pursue Marquis Wade's fault if he had the guts.
But now that Marquis Wade is trapped in Fort Hull, it is not certain whether he will be able to return, and Fury's words are a lot tougher.
"The most urgent task right now is to strengthen the defense of Floating Snow City."
Elder Fu Rui changed the topic and brought up the defense of Piaoxue City.
In fact, the most important thing to consider now is how to break the siege of Fort Hull and rescue the trapped remnants and Marquis Wade.
As for the defense of Floating Snow City?
With the ogre's ability to attack fortified battles, as long as Grugesh's two heads don't go wrong together, he won't try to attack a fortified city like Piaoxue City.
When Fury said this, it was obvious that he wanted to directly abandon the tens of thousands of remnants trapped in Fort Hull.
For the sake of power, Lanster's own family can ignore the overall situation to such an extent, which indeed refreshes Lint's perception of shamelessness and selfishness.
Shaking his head helplessly, Lint asked again: "What if I don't pay?"
"That's up to you. If you don't pay, you won't be able to get out of this hall today."
"You also mean that?"
Lint looked around at the elders in the arena. The elders were silent and didn't talk to each other. It was obviously acquiescing, but they really couldn't be as shameless as Fury.
"Just hand it over. After all, you're not even a knight, and you won't be able to convince the public if you manage Piaoxue City with a dishonorable name."
There were other veterans in the venue to persuade them.
Fury stared at Lint with some pride. Although he didn't arrange any ambushes, he alone was enough to make Lint submit.
"well……"
Lint sighed quietly and then said,
"Pity……"
Double update request for recommendation tickets, the contract has been sent, everyone seize the opportunity.
