Karren felt a little strange that Rick had not arrived yet.

In his impression, this former deputy was very capable, had done a lot of practical work, and was usually obedient.

It was Count Bergen who felt something was wrong. He was new to the colony and was sensitive.

Moreover, he had been in power for decades and had seen a lot of dirty things among the nobles.

Conspiracy and betrayal have never disappeared.

Why is loyalty worth singing about? Isn't it too rare?

"What is the origin of this Rick?" the earl asked.

Poor Rick worked hard, but the people above didn't have much impression of him.

Count Bergen just felt familiar. He seemed to have heard of this name at the beginning, but he didn't know much about the specific deeds.

He was just a low-level person.

This was also normal. The colony had always been Count Bergen's money bag. In fact, don't think he valued it much.

If there was no way out, he wouldn't come here.

Therefore, he has only been paying attention to the situation here in the past year, and his previous memories are very vague.

Karen immediately recounted Rick's experience, which was nothing more than a descendant of a knight who came to the colony to seek a future.

Rick's highlight moment was probably when he led his troops to attack Gem Harbor and seized this precious land from the white-skinned man for the first time.

Then he was picked up by the collateral blood relatives of the Earl's family, and Gem Harbor fell into the hands of the Northern Principality after several changes.

Rick got a little compensation and made a little future in the colony.

That's all.

Count Bergen thought carefully, he was nothing more than a small figure, could he really make any waves?

Now Rick has an army in his hands, but if he really rebels, how many people will obey him?

He also has a lot of troops around him, and he is not afraid of the other party's reversal.

Count Bergen was slightly relieved, thinking that there might be an accident.

He immediately showed a strict attitude and said, "Send someone to see what's going on. The lower class is the lower class, and they have no sense of time at all."

Karen secretly complained, and he had a good impression of this former deputy.

Besides, the other party is also a member of his faction. Now that the people around the earl are trying to squeeze the status of the officials in the colony, Rick still dares to make a mistake?

In this way, it is estimated that his position will not be kept.

"Well, it's a good opportunity to transfer him to my side, which is also a way out." Karen thought while sending people to find Rick, and he was afraid that something really happened.

What is Rick doing at this time?

He was waiting on the coast with a group of trusted subordinates.

Count Bergen was wrong about one thing. Rick is not alone. His troops have been won over by him.

The superiors always think that they can control everything, but they don't know what the people below want.

Loyalty, interests and appreciation can make a person work hard.

Rick defected to the Northern Principality for this reason.

Especially now that the Northern Principality is about to unify the mainland, he would be stupid to betray.

Along with Count Bergen's order, there is also an order from the Colonial Governor's Office of the Northern Principality.

Others can be let go for now, including Prince Radek.

But Count Bergen is doomed.

Not because his existence will be a big trouble, but simply because the Duke once promised.

The king has spoken, and the subordinates must certainly fulfill it.

It's not a big deal, just a fallen count.

Rick couldn't help but curl up his lips, and couldn't help laughing when he thought about it. Has the lofty Count Bergen ever thought that one day he would be so humble in the eyes of others?

"The ship is coming."

Rick was pulled back to reality and saw the small black dots appearing between the sea of ​​clouds.

With the sound of the warship's whistle, the ship docked in the sea far away from the shore.

A signal flare was immediately fired here, and soon a speedboat quickly landed.

Then a well-equipped army quickly landed.

"The assault platoon of the First Guards Infantry Division salutes you, sir."

A platoon leader came from the other side. After verifying his identity, he checked the surrounding terrain and confirmed that there was no ambush before replying to the fleet.

Rick's men were a little angry, thinking that they didn't trust themselves.

But he himself was very calm. The army of the Northern Principality was victorious in every battle. If they were not so cautious, it would be a miracle.

As soon as the signal was sent out, a bunch of small boats appeared on the sea.

There was no suitable port to dock here, but it couldn't stop the infantry from landing.

The First Guard Division landed in five batches, not only bringing more than 10,000 soldiers, but also some light artillery was dragged to the shore for reassembly.

As for the larger artillery, they could only sigh in despair.

Rick also met General Robert, the commander of the First Division.

The latter stayed in the colony for several years and made great contributions to the expansion of territory before he got the position of general.

But he knew that he had more hard work than merit, and there were no competitors. As long as he didn't make any mistakes, he could be promoted steadily.

But that was the end. It was a foolish dream to want to go further.

So General Robert wanted to make merit.

This time, he grabbed the order directly from the mainland as a guard.

Moreover, this was a mission that went straight to the emperor's ears, which was a good thing to clean up the Duke's ass.

General Robert was there in person, not wanting any accidents to happen.

It was hard overseas!

So he patted Rick's shoulder affectionately and took out the letter hidden in his arms.

"Mr. Rick, you've suffered too!

This is the Duke's handwritten letter to you. After catching that old guy Bergen, you can stay in the colony or return to the mainland. The Principality will definitely give you an explanation."

Rick has delivered a lot of information over the years. He has made contributions and worked hard. Of course, he can't be treated unfairly.

Rick was stunned, and then he was very moved.

Look, this is called the gap.

The bastard Earl Bergen probably doesn't even know who he is, but the Duke wrote a letter to him personally.

They are all working hard, who do you think is more worthwhile to work for?

He took the letter with tears in his eyes, knelt down in front of the mainland, and was more pious than the natives of the North.

When he wiped away his tears and stood up, Rick was already full of energy.

"General Robert, we have to hurry up. The old man should have noticed something wrong at this time. I still have more than a thousand men available, and I am willing to be the Duke's vanguard."

"No, no, no," General Robert stopped him immediately upon hearing this: "Your men may not be safe, let me do it, let me do it."

Just kidding, it's so hard to get a credit, how can we let others take it away.

General Robert was very active. He only asked Rick to be his advisor, and he led the army to advance quickly, for fear that he would be late and be taken ahead by others.
