Lord of War

The sudden huge movement broke the silence of the Void City.

Teams of city defense troops pulled out from the city defense army camp in the void city, and these troops rushed to the four gates of the void city and near the center of the city. The horse-rejection fence carried by the army quickly blocked all the entrances and exits of the entire city center. At the same time, other teams flocked to other important blocks to lay down lines of defense. In just half an hour or so, the entire Void City became a strictly military-controlled city under the arrangement of the City Defense Army.

But what is even more surprising is that this is not the end.

About half an hour later, two armies stepped in from outside the west city gate.

Residents of the Void City know that there is a large-scale military camp outside the west gate of the Void City. After several expansions and improvements, this barracks has now become another training camp in the Void City. It's just that this barracks used to be garrisoned by steel wing troops, but since the original Panda Town was converted into a military training base, this camp has been taken over by Thunder Lions, but recently I heard that a new army has come , called pitch black wings.

At this moment, the two armies totaled 6,000 people, and they just formed a long line and entered the Void City.

In an instant, the Void City's city defense army had as many as eleven thousand people.

For a huge city that can accommodate 100,000 people, this number of troops is just enough to defend the entire city.

It's just that the residents of Void City don't know why it happened suddenly, and some people panic for a while.

But soon, news began to come from the city, and after hearing the news, the residents of the entire Void City immediately became excited again.

Because their most respected lord, Sean Connery, was assassinated by an assassin tonight!

Everyone is angry.

At this moment, Domingo Hastings was standing in front of a window on the second floor of the embassy. Quietly looking at the suddenly brightly lit Void City, his face looked extremely gloomy. Standing beside him were the deputy head of Taylor and his illegitimate son, Sean Holm, but at this time the two seemed to feel Domingo's strange mood, and they looked at each other, both He dared not open his mouth to break the silence at this moment.

After an unknown amount of time, Domingo finally exhaled and snorted heavily, "Did you see that? Taylor."

"I see." Taylor nodded.

"Let's not talk about the two armies that entered the city later, it's just this city defense army. Is it still a mob?"

Taylor shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "Within half an hour, all the main roads of a city have been guarded, and the defense and monitoring have been completed, even if they are very familiar with the city. But this speed of action still shows that this army The quality of the team is very high, and this alone cannot be regarded as a rabble."

"How does the Second Cavalry Regiment compare to this city defense army?"

"Under your wise leadership, my lord, it is even better than this city defense army." Taylor said after thinking for a while.

Taylor was right about this.

The Kingdom of Dabion has a total of six legions composed of pure cavalry. Except for the Royal Cavalry Regiment, which belongs to the cavalry regiment directly under King Dabion, the other five cavalry regiments are named one, two, three, four, Number five. However, the 1st Cavalry Regiment has been given a separate designation. That is, the Red Cross Cavalry Regiment, which is now famous in the Southern Continent,

This is a truly elite unit whose combat effectiveness far exceeds that of the other four cavalry regiments.

However, among the remaining four cavalry regiments, the second cavalry regiment also maintained a considerable distance from the other three cavalry regiments. At least it is at the level of a quasi-fourth-level army.

In this regard, if the Second Cavalry Regiment fought against the Void City Defense Army, then the Second Cavalry Regiment would definitely win. And all this changed after Domingo Hastings became the commander-in-chief of the Second Cavalry Regiment. There has been such a significant change, so Taylor said this sentence at this time. Not flattering.

"So, how does my private army compare with this city defense army?" However, Domingo was obviously not at all happy, and he asked another question.

This time, Taylor was a little taken aback.

The Hastings family has a private army of as many as 30,000, which is known to many nobles. Although the Hastings family is only an earl family, it is very rare that the resources of Tinchein are relatively rich, and it is also one of the few trade transfer stations in the southern part of the Darbion Kingdom, with convenient transportation. It is to a large extent that it has created the prosperity of the territory, and it is precisely because of this that Domingo can afford such a private army of 30,000 infantry.

Of course, the annual expenses of this army accounted for three-quarters of the annual income of the entire territory.

So don't look at the Hastings family who can often hold various banquets, but in fact the Hastings family is not a very wealthy nobleman.

After a moment of silence, Taylor still said, "Slightly insufficient."

This evaluation is very pertinent.

Domingo sighed softly.

In fact, as an excellent general, how could Domingo fail to see the gap between the private army in his territory and the city defense army of the Void City? Although this gap is indeed small enough to be ignored, for Domingo, who is extremely competitive, this gap has become a flaw that cannot be ignored. Why is it that a very lazy army, which was clearly seen before, can become so elite in a critical moment?

Domingo couldn't figure it out.

However, if he knew that the city defense army of Void City was formerly a mercenary regiment, then it would not be difficult for him to understand.

"I finally understand why Master Gesun is so hostile to this lord." Domingo said softly.

Hearing this, both Taylor and Thain were taken aback.

Domingo's evaluation of Sean is tantamount to admitting that he is not as good as Sean. If it is an ordinary person, then Taylor and Thain will definitely not be surprised, but they are the closest people around Domingo, and of course they know very well what kind of person Domingo is, so they heard The arrogant Domingo admitted that he was not as good as Sean, which shocked the two of them.

You know, even in the Kingdom of Darbion, there are people who can make Domingo admit that he is inferior. Never more than ten people!

"However, there will be no Sean Connery after tonight."

Domingo obviously has great confidence in the assassin he sent out. In fact, since he came into contact with him, he has not failed a single mission entrusted to him, even if he was once asked to assassinate a man who had stepped half a foot into the sanctuary. strong. With such a case reference analysis, Domingo does not think that there is a possibility of failure in the face of Xiao En, whose strength is not yet in the golden level.

Almost as soon as Domingo's words fell, the door was opened by a young man.

Domingo turned to face the young man, smiled and said, "The rest of it..."

Don't wait for Domingo to finish speaking. The young man he sent to assassinate Sean took out a money bag from his body and threw it in front of Domingo. This scene made Domingo a little dazed. It took a while to react, and a look of shock appeared on Domingo's face: "How could it fail!?"

The young man, that is, the Creed Assassin from the League of Assassins immediately snorted coldly, but there was a bit of dissatisfaction in his eyes: "The target is seriously inconsistent with the information you gave....This time there are other people besides me. The other six shadow assassins also tried to assassinate the target. As a result, five of the six shadow assassins died on the spot, and the remaining one was injured and fled.

"This..." Domingo's face showed disbelief, "How is this possible?"

"Are you suspicious of me?" The young man stared at Domingo with cold eyes.

"Your Excellency misunderstood." At this time, it was Thain who interrupted, "My lord just expressed his surprise at this result. It's not doubting Your Excellency."

The young man snorted coldly, but he still said: "For the sake of our cooperation in the past, I will tell you another news. Although I don't know who sent those six shadow assassins, but the other party It must have been planned a long time ago. Because I saw that the other party sneaked into this embassy and left clues along the way, as long as someone is interested in tracking it down, they will find it here soon."

Hear the young man's words. The faces of Domingo, Thain, and Taylor changed drastically immediately.

They really wanted to assassinate Sean, but as long as there was no evidence. Then the first suspects will definitely not be them. After all, Domingo used reverse thinking at the beginning. Under the eyes of the Peace Association, they have absolutely enough reasons to prove that they have absolutely no motive for killing. But the current situation is different. If the shadow assassin who failed to assassinate Xiao En really hid in this lord's mansion, then even if there is no evidence, he will still be involved.

"You can do it for yourself." The young man said in a deep voice, then turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait, you can't leave now." Domingo said suddenly, "If you leave now, there will be one less escort with me, and it will be even harder for me to get rid of the suspicion."

"If I don't leave, you will die faster." The young man sneered, "I have met the lord face to face, it would be fine if I killed him at that time, but the problem is that I failed in the assassination. If I was killed here If you find out, then you will really get all the stolen goods, and you won't even have a chance to get rid of the suspicion."

Hearing the young man's words, Domingo was a little stunned: "How...it became like this..."

Originally, according to the plan, Sean should be a dead person, so even if someone doubts them, there will never be any evidence. But now, not only is Sean not dead, but a third party has come in. Of course, Domingo also knows that, in fact, no matter whether the plan is implemented or not, he will become the scapegoat of the third party. The six shadow assassins It can well prove this point.

At this moment, Domingo really had a painful illusion of shooting himself in the foot.

"Father, they have surrounded us."

After the young man left, Thain immediately walked to the window, and as expected, he saw groups of heavy infantry wearing black heavy armor, which were obviously different from the city defense army, and began to surround the embassy. Some archers with longbows climbed to the nearby roofs. At this time, even a bird might not be able to fly out.
