Jorah\'s words undoubtedly had great confidence and absolute trust in Allen. Otherwise, he wouldn\'t have handed over the honor and humiliation of the army to him. This great honor made Abel, who had just won a small victory at the foot of the slope, feel that it was not a question. It was as if the little credit that he had painstakingly worked hard to obtain just now had been easily compared by Allen. His little contribution was like a firefly to the bright moon. In Jorah\'s eyes, it was not worth mentioning at all.
Abel\'s expression naturally did not look good.
Hagrid also had a bitter expression on his face. According to Daniel\'s previous plan, he should have led his troops to attack the main city of the Bauhinia Territory before evening. At that time, he would use the momentum of the siege to force Allen over, so that it would be convenient for him to take Daniel\'s revenge. He didn\'t expect that he would miscalculate twice in a row. One was that he didn\'t expect Jorah to have such courage to abandon the city and choose to take the initiative to attack, thus fighting against her side on the battlefield she had chosen. The other party chose to form a formation on a high slope, so it was naturally convenient for the entire army to charge forward and occupy the terrain. Even if the Deep Sea Scaled Concubine lacked combat experience, the first round of confrontation would be extremely difficult if her equipment was placed there and she charged down from above. That was why Hagrid pretended to be generous and provoked Jorah to fight. Otherwise, if it was a plain area, he would have already led his troops over. Why would he waste so much time talking to Jorah?
Secondly, he didn\'t expect Allen to arrive so quickly. He was half a day faster than they had expected! Although half a day\'s time didn\'t seem to be much, the soldiers were extremely fast. This half a day\'s time was enough for them to devise strategies and overturn the clouds. Allen\'s current fame was limited to this territory, but who could guarantee that once he rushed out of this territory in the future, he wouldn\'t soar into the sky and become one of the empire\'s famous generals?
Just the fact that he had intervened in the battlefield half a day in advance left enough associations for Hagrid to make him cautious.
Hagrid didn't know that when Allen received Daniel's invasion, he didn't even have time to receive Oban's urgent report. He set off with Regis and William first, changing horses several times on the way. Only then did he intervene in the battle, making Hagrid hesitant.
"How is it, Guild Leader Haggers? Have you thought about it?" On the high slope, Allen asked again. He was calm and gave off a sense of confidence.
Hagrid was still hesitating when he suddenly realized that he was at a disadvantage. Allen's way of doing things was just like his blade, full of an indomitable spirit. As for success or failure, he did not take it to heart. Instead, he created a powerful aura. However, he had to make many calculations and was hesitant. Just in terms of momentum alone, he had fallen by a large margin. Originally, Hagrid was full of confidence when he left Black Iron Castle this time. He was confident that he would make a name for himself under Daniel\'s banner. He didn't expect to meet Allen here, but his confidence was shaken.
If their confidence was shaken, how could they fight this battle? With this thought in mind, Hagrid smiled bitterly and said, "Baron Allen, are we going to decide the victor here and now?"
Allen smiled indifferently and said, "Your legs are on your own. Naturally, you want to fight or leave. It\'s up to you."
With Allen\'s words, how could Hagrid not know how to step down? He immediately said decisively, "Alright, our army will immediately retreat ten kilometers. That\'s all for today. I\'ll ask Baron Allen for advice at another time. "
Allen sheathed his saber and made a "please" gesture. "Guild Leader Hagrid, you really shouldn\'t have come."
Hagrid glanced at him and did not answer. He immediately turned his horse around and led the army back. Seeing the Unicorn Legion temporarily retreat, the warriors of the Deep Sea Scaled Concubine heaved a sigh of relief. A moment later, no one knew who led the way, but everyone cheered and shouted Allen\'s name. Even Jorah\'s cheeks were flushed with excitement, and her gaze when she looked at Allen became blazing again.
Who would have thought that Allen wouldn\'t even need to use his aura to force the enemy to retreat?
In fact, in Allen\'s opinion, this was the best outcome. In order to arrive as soon as possible, he didn\'t bring a single soldier with him. If Hagrid was pushed too hard, he would probably become angry from embarrassment and directly lead his troops to attack. Although the Deep Sea Scaled Concubine had the advantage of the terrain, this advantage would gradually disappear after the first wave of charges. As long as Hagrid could calm down and fight steadily, he would first wear down the spirit of the Deep Sea Scaled Concubine and then wait for an opportunity to counterattack. It would already be fortunate that half of these warriors could return.
Now that Hagrid had retreated, Allen had won at least half a day of dispatch time. It was already rare. He had already asked Roy to mobilize the army. In the evening, at least a 500-man vanguard would arrive to assist the Deep Sea Scaled Concubine in setting up her defenses. As for Ark Harbor, he believed that Ou Ban would leave as soon as possible. As long as he could drag it out for three to five days, the Unicorn Legion would have no chance of winning.
However, Allen didn\'t expect that not only did Daniel not give up, he even recruited someone like Hagrid. Allen was deeply surprised when he saw the Knight Guild Leader of the Black Iron Castle from afar. After not seeing him for many days, Hagrid\'s aura was even more profound. If he made another breakthrough, he would be considered a formidable opponent.
After leaving behind the necessary reconnaissance power, the Deep Sea Scaled Concubine retreated in the direction of the main city. When they returned to the main city, the rain finally stopped. However, this heavy rain caused the ground to be covered in mud, turning the trenches that were being dug into ditches. However, the fortifications still had to be built, and Jorah was not careless about this. As the soldiers began to build the horse bolts, Allen, Jorah, and the others arrived at the City Lord\'s Mansion.
When they saw Allen, Grar and Oru\'s expressions changed slightly. The difference was that Grar\'s expression sank, while Oru revealed an imperceptible hint of joy. However, the expression on the Sir\'s face immediately became contradictory. It could be seen that the emotions in his heart had changed greatly. Jorah directly asked someone to arrange a room for Allen and said, "Go change your clothes first. I\'m going to hold a military meeting later. I hope you can attend."
On the way, Jorah had already calmed down her previous excitement. She couldn\'t deny that when Allen appeared in front of her like a hero, she wanted to throw herself into his arms and leave all the storms in the outside world to him. However, she still remembered her identity, so she could only try her best to restrain her emotions, so she felt hot and cold at the same time.
Allen nodded and followed the servant down. Jorah returned to her room, and Glar chased after her and said, "Why is Baron Allen here?"
"He arrived in time to solve a problem for us. What, is there a problem? Uncle Glar? "Jorah looked at him.
"Then what are you going to do now?" Glar said.
"What should we do?"
"Of course it\'s to deal with the unicorn!"
Jorah stood at the door and said, "Let\'s talk about this later at the meeting. Now I just want to take a bath. Uncle Glar isn\'t going to visit, is he? "
Glar took a step back awkwardly. Jorah pushed the door open and closed it. After closing the door, she removed her previous expression and stood against the door with her head in her hands for a while. Finally, she let out a soft sigh and walked into the bathroom. A moment later, the sound of water could be heard in the bathroom.
Outside the door, Glar caught Abel and asked him about the situation. After hearing this, Glar said in a low voice, "Miss Jorah really wants Allen to represent the Deep Sea Scaled Concubine?"
"That\'s right, uncle. How can Miss Jorah be so casual? After all, Allen isn\'t from the Deep Sea Scaled Concubine at all!" Abel said angrily.
\ '"If that\'s the case, then you have to be careful," said Glar with a frown. Obviously, Miss Jorah trusted him very much. Now that the enemy is in danger, I\'m afraid that Miss Jorah will hand over the military power to Allen. "
"Even so, it\'s only expedient. After that, Allen can\'t take the Deep Sea Scaled Concubine as well, can he? "Abel didn\'t think much of it.
"Idiot!" Glar shook his head. This nephew\'s Origin Energy martial skills were passable, but his head was too rigid. "What do you know? The human heart is a wonderful thing." If Allen had the chance to lead the army, and damn it, he was lucky enough to win this war, the soldiers would regard him as an idol. Even if he handed back the military power later, the people\'s hearts had already changed. At that time, the warriors will still be loyal to Miss Jorah, but as for you, it\'s hard to say. "
\ '"Because at that time, you will only be overshadowed by Allen\'s light. After that, the soldiers will only know Allen, but they won\'t know a Abel adjutant! "
Abel was dumbfounded and suddenly said, "If that\'s the case, I can\'t give Allen the chance to come into contact with military affairs no matter what."
He looked at Glar and said, "Uncle, will you help me?"
\ '"Nonsense, don\'t tell me I want to see Allen sit up? He\'s already powerful enough now. Once he wins the respect of the soldiers of the Deep Sea Scaled Concubine, it will be even more difficult to touch him in the future! "Grar finally said what he was thinking.
When Allen walked out of the bathroom, a servant had already prepared a set of black and gold swordsman\'s clothes for him. He put it on and looked at it in the mirror. The youth\'s face inside had already lost three points of childishness. After being sharpened many times on the battlefield of blood and fire, Allen was like a divine weapon, and his edges and corners had gradually revealed his own sharpness.
He turned around and left. When he entered the hall, there were already guests visiting.
"Sir Oru, I thought you should be busy right now. Why do you still have time to be here?" Allen smiled and picked up Qianjun, carefully wiping it with a silk handkerchief. When his palm passed through the silk and passed through the blade, Allen felt as if he was connected to the heavy saber.
In Oru\'s eyes, he could no longer distinguish between a man and a saber.
People are like sabers, sabers are like people. On this rainy afternoon, there was no difference.
That meant that Allen had taken another step forward in the realm of the Dao of the Saber.
"I was still hesitating just now, but when I saw you now, Sir Allen, I suddenly realized that Sir Daniel\'s time has passed." Oru suddenly sighed.
Allen raised his head, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth, and smiled brightly, "I\'m glad you\'ve finally made up your mind."
\ '"Yes, because looking at you now, I can\'t find a reason why you would lose. When Viscount Daniel was your age, he was a nobody. To be honest, when I heard that Daniel had suddenly sent troops, I had considered whether I should work with him to eat the Deep Sea Scaled Concubine together. "Oru looked straight into Allen\'s eyes and said.
"So now, of course you don\'t have such thoughts?"
Oru stood up and said respectfully to Allen, "Yes, my lord. But my loyalty will only be to you. Not Oban, much less Jorah or Glar. "
"I am honored, but now, please help Miss Jorah. At least until I leave Earl Oban, Sir Oru, I cannot accept your loyalty. "
A simple sentence revealed the ambition in the youth\'s heart. Oru took a deep breath and said, "I can wait, and I am a patient person."
"Alright, then you have to take care of the work of the city defense. You must not shrink it."
Oru nodded and said, "I\'ll go patrol now."
When he walked out of the room again, Oru\'s mood was already very different. The joy of making a decision could not be expressed in words. After making his decision, Oru didn\'t even feel that the unicorn army was a threat. Even though they were still not optimistic from the looks of the situation. However, Allen had that kind of charm. Oru straightened his back and strode away.
The meeting will be held in an hour.
Apart from important people like Jorah, Allen, and Oru, the people attending the meeting also included officers of the Deep Sea Scaled Concubine. However, there were no seats for them in the meeting room, so these officers were basically standing and listening.
"Everyone, you should know the current situation. Now, Daniel\'s attitude is clear. He intends to recover the Bauhinia. But we won\'t let him do that, and because of Sir Allen\'s timely arrival, the unicorn has temporarily retreated ten kilometers away. Coupled with the fact that the rain had stopped, it could be predicted that even if they wanted to attack, they would have to do it tomorrow. We have won at least half a day of preparation time. Given the actual situation of our army, I have a proposal here. " Jorah swept her gaze across the audience and finally landed on Allen. "I hope Sir Allen can temporarily become my adjutant and help us fight this war," she said.
A low voice immediately sounded in the meeting room, and the expressions of Grar and Abel turned ugly. Even though Jorah didn\'t directly hand over the military affairs to Allen as the two of them had expected. However, if Allen were to be his adjutant, where would Abel be?
Glar winked at Abel, who immediately slapped the table and stood up, "I object!"
Allen looked at him indifferently and revealed a faint smile, but it made Abel even more furious. Allen\'s indifferent attitude made him feel that he was just a dispensable character in the eyes of others. At this moment, he was even more determined to oppose Jorah\'s proposal.
Jorah looked at him coldly, "What\'s the reason?"
This glance made Abel have the heart to die. Of course, he couldn\'t really die, so he tried his best to argue, "It is true that Sir Allen\'s military contributions are outstanding. However, he is not one of our Deep Sea Scaled Concubine. He is not familiar with our military system. If you rashly let him become your adjutant, Miss Jorah, I am afraid that Sir Allen will make the wrong decision and affect the battle! "
