"… About 950 enemies were annihilated, and our troops lost about 100 people …" The skirmish between the humans and the Demons was over, and Legg was reporting the situation to Li Huailin. Because it was originally a super advantageous situation of 4000 people against 1000 disabled soldiers, Li Huailin did not even have the desire to command, so he left everything to Legg. Judging from the results, Legg had also played in accordance with the rules. There were no accidents, but there was no amazing performance.
"Knight Bruno has captured the enemy's commander, Gordon. I wonder how His Lordship will deal with him?" Legg looked at Li Huailin's expression, not knowing if Li Huailin was satisfied with his performance.
"Gordon? This guy is still alive? " Li Huailin also sighed at this guy's vitality. As his opponent in the battle of fame, this guy was really lucky. He had fought with Li Huailin several times, and yet he had survived until now, which was really cool.
"His Lordship, do you mean to kill him now?" Legg asked. "But I think it's better to send him directly to King Anthony. After all, he is a marshal of the Demons, and the person with the highest military rank on the Demons' side that we have captured since the founding of the country. If we offer him to His Royal Highness, it will be very helpful to His Royal Highness. Besides, we were the ones who captured him, so it will be a good opportunity for His Lordship to make a name for himself."
"Make a name for myself?" Li Huailin felt that he was already famous enough, so how could anyone not know him? But after thinking about it for a while, it was true that this was useful to Anthony. Because of the previous issue of the royal orthodoxy, the people of Anthony's side were a little unstable. If he could capture a marshal of the Demons now, it would also be one of the ways to improve the people's morale.
Thinking of this, Li Huailin nodded slightly. "What you said makes sense. How about this, Dramo, Reggie."
"Yes, His Lordship." Reggie immediately ran over, but Dramo was nowhere to be seen.
"Where's Dramo?" Li Huailin asked curiously.
"Eh? Leader, he … "Reggie looked around curiously. Of course, this leader was referring to Dramo. They used to be part of the Blue Shadow Knights. Although they were now under Li Huailin's command, Reggie still hadn't changed the way he addressed him.
"Has anyone seen General Dramo? The Lord is looking for him. "Legg also looked at the surrounding soldiers and asked.
"I saw General Dramo heading that way," one of the soldiers reported.
Everyone looked in the direction the soldier pointed and saw Dramo slowly riding his horse back. Dramo's expression didn't seem to be in a good mood, as though he had encountered something depressing.
"My Lord! Please forgive me! "Dramo had just walked to Li Huailin's side when he immediately got off his horse and half-knelt.
"What's the matter?" Li Huailin asked.
"It's like this, My Lord. Just now in the chaos, I saw a man dressed as a Demons NCO sneaking away from the main force. He seemed to be trying to slip away, so I quietly followed him and intercepted him just now. I didn't expect this general to be so skilled. We exchanged a few blows, and I had a slight advantage and successfully injured him. However, I didn't expect him to attack my horse directly, causing it to be injured. He took the opportunity to hit the horse and escape. I really couldn't catch up."
Li Huailin looked at Dramo's horse next to him. As expected, the horse's chest and front thigh were injured twice, and it was now bleeding. It seemed that even if it was healed, this horse couldn't be used in battle.
"Forget it, it's just a Demons NCO. If he ran away, so be it. " Li Huailin didn't notice it either. Occasionally, there would be a few lucky people who managed to sneak out of the chaos. Li Huailin didn't know that Gordon had recognized him, so he didn't pay much attention to this matter. He just thought that it was a lucky NCO who escaped, so he waved his hand and let him go.
"Don't worry about him," Li Huailin said. "Dramo, Reggie, I'll give you two a mission."
"My Lord, please give us your orders," the two said at the same time.
"Both of you, take Gordon to the main city and hand this guy over to Anthony," Li Huailin said.
"Yes, Your Highness," the two replied at the same time.
"My Lord, do you want to see Gordon?" Legg asked.
"See him?" Li Huailin thought for a moment. "Forget it. What's there to see? I have nothing to say to him anyway."
"Yes, my Lord." Legg only mentioned it briefly. After thinking for a while, he asked, "My Lord, what's the plan for our team after this?"
"What else can we do? We'll continue to follow the Fourth Army." Li Huailin said. "They'll help us take the lead, and we'll follow behind to pick up the scraps. I don't know what you guys don't like about such a good thing."
"Yes, my Lord," Legg replied.
After giving the orders, the battle against the Demons came to an end for the time being. Based on the current advancement speed, it would take more than a week for the Human and Undead armies to reach the enemy's main city. Li Huailin was basically sure that the enemy's army would not attack. What surprised Li Huailin was that he actually seized the letter from Bayzera that Gordon mentioned just now.
This thing was actually very easy to deal with. Under normal circumstances, Gordon could just swallow it directly, but for some reason, he did not do it. In the end, he found it on his body when he was captured. Li Huailin took a look at it. It was nothing more than an emergency conscription for the Demons. They had already gathered about 90,000 troops.
As for this matter, Li Huailin had already thought about it. It would be a little strange if the other party did not urgently conscript troops. However, the speed of conscription was quite fast. It was estimated that there was still a week left. By that time, the total number of Demons was estimated to be more than 100,000. It would probably be quite troublesome to siege the city, but he would think about it when the time came.
Of course, what Li Huailin did not know was that this letter was deliberately kept by Gordon in order to divert Li Huailin's attention. In fact, the content of this letter was not much. It did not matter if it was given to Li Huailin. Maybe it could even make the Human army fear the number of Demons and slow down their advance. Gordon had also considered this problem before he kept the letter. Of course, the main purpose was to cover up the secret that he already knew Li Huailin's identity.
Since there was nothing else here, Li Huailin chose to return to the city directly. He was still relatively busy here. The most important thing was naturally the advertisement that he had promised Su Ruoyan. He had to collect some information. Of course, it was suitable for his current level and the dungeon that had not been cleared yet. This way, it would be easier for him to advertise. And for this information, Li Huailin was going to ask Night Flight. After all, Night Flight definitely had it. As a big guild, these dungeon dungeon information must have been collected very neatly.
And it was not just information. Li Huailin also wanted to introduce his company's first business. Night Flight was building their guild territory, so they should also have a need for funds. It was a good opportunity to ask if the other party needed it. In this way, his first business would be completed.
While shopping in the main city, Li Huailin began to contact Night Flight. Of course, it was already noon now, and Night Flight was also online. Just like what Li Huailin thought, Rebirth was currently facing some financial problems. As the number of shops in the main city increased, Rebirth's financial advantage was now slowly decreasing. Moreover, building a territory required a large investment. Although Rebirth's current funds could not support it, why would they reject the cash that was delivered to their doorstep? Hearing Li Huailin's proposal, Night Flight naturally agreed immediately. They immediately agreed to the loan and even took the initiative to help Li Huailin introduce other guild leaders to the specific matters.
After arranging a location with Night Flight, Li Huailin also contacted Su Ruoyan. When she heard that their first business deal was coming, Su Ruoyan personally rushed over to meet up with Li Huailin and immediately began discussing the contract.
At the same time, on the side of the palace in the main city, the messenger had already reported the battle report to Anthony in advance, as well as the capture of the opponent's Commander-level figure. This was naturally arranged by Legg. In order to fight for Li Huailin's side, Legg had also arranged it very well.
"Oh? Huailin is really amazing. He actually captured the Demons' First Legion's Marshal Gordon. This is really amazing, "Anthony could not help but exclaim. This was the best news he had received recently.
"Your Highness, we must make good use of this opportunity to present the captives and raise the royal family's image among the people," Empress Marina said.
"Mm-hmm …" Anthony nodded. "This is a good opportunity to raise the royal family's prestige. We must arrange a relatively grand ceremony for the captives."
"Mach should be able to arrange it properly," Marina said. Marina said, "But the problem is … the Duke of Aquitaine might not come …"
"If he doesn't come, then he won't. Anyway, the war is busy now. We can just say that the Marshal is at the front line and has no time to come back." Anthony also knew Li Huailin's temper. He did not even attend the enthronement ceremony, let alone the captives ceremony. "Dernate, send the welcoming troops to receive Huailin's people. Then, ask Prime Minister Mach to prepare for the ceremony. Tomorrow, I will receive the Demons' Marshal in front of the people in the city."
"Yes, Your Highness," Dernate, the Royal Knight, immediately said.
