  Chapter 306: The Emperor’s Order:

  The Kovir people caused trouble as soon as they arrived?
  House's report changed the expressions of the four officers of the Free Corps, and they quickly became nervous.

  Lann waved his hands carelessly: "It doesn't matter, I believe they will handle it on their own."

  Then he completely ignored the restless posture of the four officers of the Freedom Corps and continued calmly:
  "You missed our previous combat meeting, so Our general principles and strategies may not be clear yet. These things will be explained clearly to you by your superiors after you are assigned to the subsequent units. I will briefly explain the arrangements for you here. You will be split into Four parts, join the guerrillas..."

  "Wait, wait, Duke Lannister." The bearded Lorenzo suddenly spoke regardless of the uncomfortable feeling in his body before, "You mean our organization is going to be broken up. , and also going to engage in guerrilla warfare?"

  Lann's words were interrupted, which made House frown suddenly, and put his arm on the lion-headed sword at his waist.

  Lan raised his hand to signal House to calm down, then raised his head. Those emotionless lion eyes just stared at Lorenzo.

  In less than two breaths, Lorenzo couldn't help but look away. At this moment, he felt like a prey being targeted by a lion.

  Then he had to apologize in the serious eyes of the regiment leader Adam: "...Please forgive me for the offense, Lord Lannister."

  Lan continued to look at Lorenzo with his eyes, until the other three officers could no longer stand the dullness. The atmosphere made him want to plead, so he said leisurely:
  "As far as I know, there is no such thing as an 'organization' in the Freedom Corps. They are all criminals who have just been released from prison and have not received unified military training. , there is no time to slowly develop cooperation with my soldiers, the guerrillas are the best arrangement." "

  You will definitely suffer heavy casualties if you suddenly step onto the frontal battlefield, and the guerrillas can help you adapt to the battlefield first and hone your cooperation - this This is my respect and care for my friends from afar."

  After saying this, Lan finally lowered his head and turned his attention back to the documents on the table. The fourth officer of the Free Corps suddenly felt the pressure on his body relax, and the bearded Lorenzo even couldn't help but start breathing heavily.

  Female officer Julia and regimental leader Adam couldn't help exchanging glances. In Coville's rumors, Duke Lannister has always existed as a "knight from poetry", but now it seems that his power is no longer at the level of a knight.

  They even remembered the former king Istrad Thyssen.

  "Thank you for your consideration for the special nature of our unit, Duke Lannister." Captain Adam bowed his head towards Lann.

  Lan chuckled noncommittally: "Our current guerrillas are mainly divided into three groups. There is a forest guerrilla and a town guerrilla in the south of Sintra, and there is a maritime guerrilla on the Yaruga River. , you will be merged into..."

  "Lan, Duke Lannister." Lan was interrupted again, still the bearded Lorenzo, "The Kovirs under our command are all criminals. , unruly. Regarding the issue of splitting up our troops..."

  With a "clang" sound, House couldn't bear it anymore and suddenly stepped forward, the lion-headed sword drawing an arc in mid-air.

  Lorenzo can become an officer of a mercenary group composed of criminals, and there is absolutely no problem with his own combat qualities. He was on guard when House put his hand on the hilt of the sword for the first time, and at this moment he was able to raise the sword in his hand in time to block.

  Even if his mind was still clear enough, he didn't draw the sword, but just unsheathed it in an attempt to force House back.

  The other three officers around him backed away. This was definitely not the time to help. They even hoped to make this "companion" who had been infected with too many prisoners' bad habits suffer.

  They expected that their partners who were skilled in the battlefield would not suffer heavy losses, and the enemy of Duke Lannister would not make it too difficult for their reinforcements.

  However, there was only a "clang" sound, and House's speed exceeded their expectations, and he rushed to Lorenz's eyes in just a blink of an eye.

  And Lorenz only felt as if a hammer hit his scabbard. His raised hands folded back without resistance, and then he was wrapped up and slapped hard on his chest.

  At that moment, he felt that his entire chest and internal organs were being impacted. Lorenzo's entire upper body couldn't help but lean forward in severe pain, and he suddenly lost the ability to resist.

  House was even more rude when he saw the opponent's head coming to the door. He raised his elbow directly, reversed the hilt of the sword and slapped the opponent's side of the face hard. He watched Lorenzo spin around and threw it to the ground. He kept spitting out broken teeth and blood.

  "Now you can have less opinions." House said coldly.

  The room became quiet.

  The other three officers of the Free Corps looked at House in confusion.

  They have different levels of military command ability, but their bravery is almost the same. But such an ordinary guard in front of him, who is not even a knight, can actually make Lorenzo defenseless?
  This was not a sneak attack. As early as the first time the guard put his hand on the hilt of the sword, everyone was on guard!

  Lan looked at the documents on the table quietly, seemingly indifferent to what was happening.

  He did not express his position, and the others did not dare to say anything. Only Lorenzo lay on the ground and let out a whimpering scream.

  Another burst of noise suddenly came from outside the window, breaking the calm in the room. This time there were not only curses in various dialects, but also screams.

  The sounds intensified - especially the screams.

  Lan couldn't help but frown and moved to the balcony. The doors and windows were wide open, and all sounds suddenly became clearer.

  The three remaining Free Corps officers looked at each other and saw Lann's signal. They couldn't help but followed curiously and looked outside. Then they saw an unforgettable scene - they thought they

  would see what they had brought. The mercenaries fought with the soldiers of Cintra, and were still thinking about how to explain to Duke Lannister; however, the fact was that all the Cintra and most of the Kovir people stayed away.

  There were only two people in the field, one was a bear-like man, the demon hunter Gerd.

  He single-handedly rushed into the crowd of more than a dozen people. Everyone restrained themselves and did not move the hilts of their swords, so only fists like raindrops fell on him. He responded with attacks like waves, resisting those fists and kicks and easily hit him. Knock out all the people in a team.

  One person defeated a team. This man not only resembles a bear in stature and aura, but also in strength.

  The three officers of the Free Corps watched helplessly as the other party was still unsatisfied after breaking through one team and began to look for the next target.

  And if this scene is still within the acceptable range of ordinary people, then the situation on the other side is very scary: a giant bear with a body length of three meters sprints among the Kovir people who are still resisting, but shrinks its teeth and claws. , like slapping a child, using a slap bigger than a human head to continuously throw the Kovir people away.

  The giant bear and the people around it are the main source of these screams.

  "Duke Lannister!" Julia exclaimed, "That's, that's..."

  "Those are the captain and adjutant of the Maritime Guerrilla Team. They are also the future bosses of one of your teams." Looking at the incoherent little beautiful cat, Lan said calmly.

  After a while, all the Keville mercenaries who participated in the fight fell to the ground, and the remaining mercenaries looked at each other in shock.

  Gede shook his neck, not paying attention to the large number of bruises on his arms. The giant bear walked up to Gede, and in the astonished eyes of the three officers, it made a sound like fried beans. It shrank in size, lost its hair, and turned into the young man they had seen before.

  The three officers were stunned, their mouths wide open, speechless.

  House walked slowly to Lan's side and explained in a low voice: "Many people in the Freedom Corps just tried to escape. After being discovered by Gerd, most of them were executed on the spot. Then he had a misunderstanding with other mercenaries who didn't know what was going on, so A fight broke out."

  The Free Corps were newly released prisoners, so it was not surprising that such a thing happened, or it was strange that there were so few deserters.

  Lan nodded: "It seems that the misunderstanding has been resolved now."

  Adam nodded in agreement.

  "Most of the deserters were executed on the spot, but some of them are still alive?"

  "Yes, sir."

  Lan turned to look at Adam: "All deserters were handed over to me for public execution. Those who participated in the fight were handed over to me." Here, give me a satisfactory result, can you do it?"

  Adam did not dare to look into Lan's eyes anymore: "Follow your order." "

  After we go back, we can start to split up the legion. I will let Ged, including The captains of the three guerrilla teams in the city came to pick people, and each of you chooses a team to join. It just so happens that Colonel Lorenzo looks like he needs to recover from his injuries for a while, so the distribution is even." Adam lowered his head: "All obey

  . Your order."
-
  With a "bang", the fiery red portal opened wide.

  The sorceress stepped out. She had a unique short hair and wore a gorgeous palace low-cut dress. Like all other sorceresses, she displayed her charm unscrupulously.

  But compared with her radiant figure, the expression on her face was much gloomier and haggard.

  Apparently she hasn't been having a very happy life lately.

  Fringilla Weige sighed and looked around: the soldiers guarding the long-distance teleportation array couldn't help but lower their heads after seeing her, but it could be seen that their eyes were looking at her body in a subtle way; Further away, you can see the endless military camps and the Black Sun flags waving everywhere; if you climb higher, you can even see the Yaruga River.

  "Ms. Wei Ge." An officer who had been waiting for a long time came forward, "Please come with me, Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time." Unlike the

  soldiers, Fringilla Wei Ge did not see a trace of concern in the eyes of the officer in front of her. There is even a hint of the opposite contempt for the magical power.

  She didn't like this look. He was just a mid-level officer. Why should he look like this at a warlock who was powerful enough to serve as a royal adviser in the north?
  But at this moment, Fringilla knew that she was in the Nilfgaardian military camp, not the north. So she could only swallow this breath and strode into the emperor's study following the officer in front of her.

  She seemed to be late and there were other people here. Fringilla looked over one by one, and was surprised to find that all of them were sorcerers whose strength was no less than her own:
  a white-haired old man, Shaschius. He is the most prestigious and one of the strongest among all the sorcerers in Nilfgaard, especially in astrology and prophetic magic. Fringilla knew that he had helped Emhyr, a prince, to lift the curse during the usurper period. As a result, he had received a heavy reward and was highly regarded by the emperor.

  A man with a short haircut, Fan Hema. He is best at fire magic, which is regarded as a forbidden technique by northern warlocks. Flame is the most violent force. From this, we can see Fanhema's control over chaotic energy. Fringilla believes that this man's magical power is not inferior to her own.

  A sorceress with a red hood and a black cat on her shoulders, Ashley var Anahim. Born in the southernmost province of the empire, he is a "true citizen of the Nilfgaardian Empire".

  She seemed to be in a bad mood, because Fringilla knew that her great-aunt Cassir Morva Dyverin Aip Chirac had unfortunately died while chasing Princess Cirilla in the city of Cintra. Killed by Rann the Lion. Ashley has always been worried about this.

  Fringilla was surprised to see so many powerful warlocks at one time. Except for Shaschius who accompanied Emperor Emhyr all year round, the remaining two led warlock troops to participate in the Civil War just like herself.

  And the one who can summon so many warlocks is naturally the emperor of the empire who is surrounded by them like a moon in their hearts at this moment - Emhyr var Emres.

  "Alberich is dead."

  Before Fringilla could salute the emperor, the emperor announced the news in a deep voice. This surprised Fringilla again.

  Alberich was also the leader of an army of sorcerers.

  Then a servant handed a piece of information to Fringilla's hand, along with a letter. The words on it made Fringilla more and more frightened as she read it, almost unable to believe her eyes.

  "Duke Darcy... was captured? And the Eastern Group... was defeated?"

  The emperor turned his back to Fringilla and nodded noncommittally.

  "My warlocks, take another look at this information and tell me what you found out from it."

  Ashley, whose great-aunt died, is old enough to be the emperor's grandmother, but the sorceress has always taken good care of herself, and she looks no more than two-year-old. She looks like a teenage lady.

  She looked at the name that could not be avoided in the intelligence, and took a deep breath: "They described the Lannister as if a magic weapon descended from the sky, with both fire and frost, and the ability to teleport..."

  " But as far as I know, Lannister is just a demon hunter." Pyromancer Van Hema said, "If the demon hunter is so powerful, then the snake sect of Gusweder will not be so easy to deal with. ."

  Fringilla cleared her thoughts, and she knew that Lannister was more than just a witcher. She became excited, but now was not the time to show these emotions.

  She suppressed her mixed emotions and said: "Lannister is said to have received help from two royal advisor-level warlocks, Yennefer of Vengerberg and Triss of Marbury. He also has a mentor-level druid as an advisor. If they cooperate together..." "

  So this is your conclusion? Lannister used the power of magic to achieve such magical results?"

  Emperor Emhyr turned around, and in that moment the warlocks bowed their heads.

  Obviously Emhyr is just an ordinary person, and he is surprisingly young compared to the warlocks, but the power carried by the Lord of the Empire makes the warlocks feel as if they are really looking directly at the sun.

  After a while, they heard the emperor give the order.

  "I want you all to go to the front, with your warlock troops."

  "To Cintra and Upper Soden, Your Majesty? To protect Duke Witte and Marshal Mennonite from being assassinated again?" "No,

  you Just go to Soden." Fringilla heard the emperor's cold voice, "Go and accept the orders of Marshal Menno."
