Mage Lord: The Tech Tree is Skewed by Me

Is the news that Leon captured South Valley City outrageous?

In fact, it is quite outrageous.

Also starting from Palma City, in less than half a month, the eastern front army led by Leon first captured Oak City and then occupied Nangu City. It can be said that it was an unstoppable advance.

On the other hand, the Western Front Army led by the Duke of Galicia is still languishing on the road without any strong city to stop it and without even having a single encounter.

It can be said that the efficiency displayed by the Antolian army and the entire Eastern Front Army was enough to kill the Western Front Army that had been on its way.

But with the news of the Northland mercenaries blocking the way, the battle report sent by Leon didn't seem so outrageous.

At this moment, the Duke of Galicia was actually quite tangled in his heart.

He felt that the possibility of putting Herson on the throne was gradually getting lower and lower the more he thought about it.

Even if he could really join forces with Helson and take advantage of the current emptiness in the royal capital to oust Wilbert I from the throne, would they be able to stop the Duke of Sorrowwind in the north? !

It's possible, but not much.

If this is the case, wouldn't his raising troops from the south serve as a wedding dress for the Duke of Sadwind Castle?

The more the Duke thought about it, the more awkward and headache he got. It was not until the noble standing aside reminded him that he realized the battle report sent from Nangu City.

etc……

Nangucheng!

The Duke of Galicia raised his head sharply.

Previously, he had been thinking about the news from the north, so he did not hear clearly the words of the herald, nor did he read carefully the battle report written by Leon himself.

And now...

When the Duke of Galicia glanced at the words on the vellum, the Duke's heart could be said to be full of mixed emotions, which made his already tangled heart feel a little more irritable out of thin air.

You know, the Duke of Galicia has always clearly remembered the order he gave to Leon - to lead the eastern front army to capture Oak City, and then go all the way north to join the western front army he led in South Valley City.

In other words, Nangu City was originally a phased strategic goal set by the Duke of Galicia for the Western Front Army he led.

But Leon took it down in one go!

But as a lord, I was still grinding on the road, slowly heading north along the west bank of the Hom River.

At this moment, the Duke of Galicia felt that his old face was slightly swollen. Although he was not ashamed, he still felt uncomfortable in his heart.

After working for a long time, my side has the superior numbers and military strength, but it has become a soy sauce?

He is the lord of Leon Jimena, Viscount of Antolia, so he should be the one in the limelight!

Looking at the nobles with different expressions in front of him, the Duke of Galicia became increasingly unhappy.

In fact, not only the Duke, but also the taciturn Count Brabant standing aside was also shocked at this time.

No, are the Antolians so fierce? !

Long before the start of the Northern Expedition, Leon sent Kerman to meet with Count Brabant. (Note: Chapter 90)

Although no substantive agreement was reached, the two parties had already reached a consensus on not supporting Helson's succession, nor supporting the Duke of Galicia's Northern Expedition.

But since everyone was a noble, and the rebelling of the lord was really not something that should be publicized, the two did not retain any written evidence, and Leon never mentioned his plan to avoid giving the other party any clues.

Therefore, Count Brabant has always been pessimistic about whether he can successfully rebound.

After all, the Duke is a Duke, and the resources and military power he can mobilize are beyond the reach of the lower-level nobles.

It wasn't until the Duke of Galicia appointed Leon as the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Front Army and cooperated very cooperatively to provide an assist that Count Brabant saw a glimmer of hope.

However, hope is just hope after all.

Before that, the only thing Earl Brabant did was to ask the Viscount of Gongyang City and Viscount of Shili City, who were friends with him, to cooperate with Leon's decision as much as possible.

But now...

The fierce Antolians actually took over Nangu City without any help from the Duke!

While this deeply shocked Count Brabant, it also caused his mentality to gradually change.

Although he didn't know what Leon's plan was, or what Leon's plan was, Count Brabant knew that the more nobles he could win over, the greater the possibility of Leon's success.

At least so far, he and Leon have the same interests, which is to bring down the Duke of Galicia!

"The whole army sets off! We must arrive at Nangu City within two days!"

As the whispers of the nobles in the camp gradually faded away, the Duke of Galicia gritted his teeth and issued the order.

There can be no further delay from the road.

If we continue to be delayed on the road like this, problems will occur sooner or later due to the fluctuation of people's hearts.

It is certainly the duty of nobles to serve their lord, but if the lord stretches his hips too much, many unpredictable things will inevitably happen.

In the subconscious mind of the Duke of Galicia, he no longer cares about the Northland mercenaries or not. The most important thing at the moment is to quickly join the Eastern Front Army that has occupied South Valley City.

You know, in the heart of the Duke of Galicia, young Leon is a loyal, brave and just nobleman.

As long as you meet Leon as soon as possible, everything will be fine!

So, after two days of trekking that made the militiamen complain incessantly, under the compulsory request of the Duke of Galicia, this western front army starting from the city of Parma finally arrived at the gate of Nangu City despite the pressure of a large number of deserters. And was warmly welcomed by Viscount Leon of Antolia.

"Dear Duke of Galicia!"

"Your Majesty the Duke is tired from traveling. I have specially ordered someone to prepare a banquet in the castle. I hope your Majesty the Duke will approve it."

Although he had won a series of great victories in Oak City and South Valley City, Leon's attitude was still humble and polite, which made the Duke's originally anxious heart feel a lot more comfortable.

"You did a great job! It was much better than I expected."

Hearing this, young Leon looked shy and quickly shied away:

"This is all due to the close cooperation of the nobles. Without their support, the Antoliad army alone would not be able to enter the South Valley City anyway."

"Where are they? Earl Colt, and the Viscount of Ram City?"

The Duke nodded with satisfaction, but still looked around and couldn't help but ask.

Earl Colt is long dead!

Leon complained in his heart.

But complaints are complaints, before the Duke of Galicia enters the city, Leon should always appear more polite:

"The earl and several viscounts are all preparing for today's dinner in the castle."
