Chapter 30 Buy

After nightfall, the temperature begins to drop.

The spring night in the northern border is also quite cold.

In the camp, the soldiers lit a bonfire to keep warm, boil water and cook.

At the same time, I started chatting.

As for the content, of course, the meeting between the two marquises during the day, the whip of Marquis Garcia, and the cry of Marquis Charles.

Colin mingled among the soldiers in a low-key manner, listening to their chattering words.

Then he suddenly realized that the soldiers' attitude towards Marquis Charles had changed somewhat unexpectedly.

Before today, these soldiers, especially those who escaped from the battlefield of Jinghu, had a very bad attitude towards Marquis Charles.

Contempt, disgust, despise.

It is certainly no surprise that a defeated general has such a bad reputation.

What's more, the Marquis of Charles also issued an emergency call and used all the recruited people as cannon fodder bait.

It can be said that if he had not been the eldest son of the Duke, and if the St. Heards' family had not been too famous in the northern border, Marquis Charles would have been devoured alive by these angry soldiers.

However, Marquis Charles's cry during the day seemed to gradually change public opinion.

Colin listened carefully to the soldiers' discussions and gradually came back to his senses.

He didn't know whether Marquis Charles's cry was a true expression or a political show.

However, it was a bit like Liu Da'er.

That person is an expert in this field. The more he cries, the more he wins the people.

In addition, Colin thought of the whip of Marquis Garcia, and now he thought it was very meaningful.

At that time, Colin had only two first words about this - domineering!

This whip was not only whipped by Marquis Charles, but also whipped by Duke St. Heard's face.

Colin thought that Marquis Garcia was venting his dissatisfaction with the Duke. After all, this disastrous defeat was ultimately because the Duke hid the Black Cavalry.

But now I think about it, I also helped Marquis Charles to get rid of the blame - I have whipped him in public, so don't resent him anymore.

That's probably what it means.

In this way, Marquis Garcia has some concern for Marquis Charles...

Colin was thinking about it when suddenly a soldier came behind him:

"Knight Colin, Marquis Charles is welcome!"

Collin was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect that the marquis would come to him.

"Okay, please lead the way."

While thinking about why Marquis Charles was looking for him, Collin followed the soldiers all the way to a luxurious tent in the middle of the camp.

"Greetings to the Marquis!" As the first heir to the loyal lord of the Angles family, Marquis Charles was qualified to accept Collin's kneeling.

"Knight Colin please get up!"

Marquis Charles quickly stepped forward and pulled Colin up intimately.

The marquis looked in his thirties, with a frosty face, and his naked upper body was covered with bandages. I don’t know if he was really injured or was doing a show again.

However, Colin didn't care about this.

He is not those big-headed soldiers. The superiors can get their forgiveness and sympathy by crying a few times.

"I wonder what instructions did the Marquis ask me for?" Collin asked without a trace of getting rid of Marquis Charles' overly enthusiastic hands and bowed.

Marquis Charles did not answer immediately, but turned around and took a two-handed sword from the guards and handed it to Colin.

"Sorry, Knight Collin, your father, Baron Angele... is unfortunately killed on the front line... it is all my fault... This is his sword, please... feel sorry!"

Marquis Charles said, and even choked up again.

Colin had to admire the other party's acting skills. Tears came as soon as possible, and they were much better than some young and handsome guys with dead faces.

"Mr. Marquis, don't do this! It is his glory for his father to sacrifice his life for the country, not your fault."

Colin also tried hard to squeeze out a few tears, with a passionate look on his face: "I swear that I will kill all the invading trolls and avenge my father! Please give me such a chance!"

Marquis Charles's eyes lit up. Obviously, he didn't expect Colin to be so tactful and cooperate so much.

He grabbed Colin's hands and shouted: "Don't worry, Knight Colin! I promise you that you will definitely kill all these damn trolls and avenge the Baron of Angeles and other sacrificed soldiers in the North!"

Colin resisted his inner disgust: "Thank you, Lord Marquis!"

"This is what I should do, Knight Colin!"

The two of them held hands and looked at each other, their eyes were full of tears, and the atmosphere gradually became a bit basic...

It took a long time for the two actors to calm down from the atmosphere just now.

Marquis Charles calmed down and pulled Colin to sit down: "Knight Colin, I heard Vera talk about your experience of escape along the way, so I also want to represent my father and the St. Heard family, thank you for protecting Vera from the trolls!"

“This is what I should have done.”

Marquis Charles nodded, but his tone suddenly became ambiguous:

"Knight Collin, from my sister's words, I can clearly feel her value for you. Moreover, I heard that she personally begged Archbishop Raven to treat you with pure holy water. Haha, over the years, I have never seen my sister pay so much attention to other men."

"I can't repay Miss Vera's kindness!"

Only then did Colin realize that the marquis probably saw his military talent from Vera's narrative, so he had the current action of winning people's hearts.

However, if Marquis Charles extended an olive branch to him before this battle, Colin would have no hesitation to be loyal.

But now, Colin won't easily get on this broken ship that is almost in danger of overturning.

"But, Knight Collin, even if you inherited the baron of the Angrey family, you may want to marry my sister..." Marquis Charles continued, with a heart-to-heart feeling.

"Marquis, how dare I have such an idea! Miss Vera is a goddess-like figure, so I dare not blaspheme!" Colin would not admit that he had such an idea.

"Haha, Knight Colin, you don't have to be so mean!" Marquis Charles smiled and waved his hand, "With your talents, you will definitely make achievements on the battlefield, and it is not difficult to get promoted."

"Marquis, you have been too rewarded. Fighting for the North is my lifelong wish, and I dare not expect more."

Collin felt a little contemptuous. The marquis actually used his sister as bargaining chips to win people's hearts. No matter how he looked, he couldn't get on the table.

What's more, Collin didn't believe that Marquis Charles had much say in Vera's marriage.

Of course, Marquis Charles may not really want to help Collin marry his sister.

This kind of politician's promise is as unreliable as the boss's "work hard, you will definitely get a promotion and a salary increase in the future."

So, Colin was flattered on the surface and even expressed some attachment, but was secretly alert in his heart.

Marquis Charles did not seem to see Colin's perfunctory manner and still treated him enthusiastically.

The two talked for a long time, and they felt that they met too late.

It was not until late at night that Colin stood up and said goodbye.

Marquis Charles personally sent him outside the tent.

Just as Colin bowed and prepared to say goodbye, Marquis Charles suddenly looked behind Colin and said in surprise:

"Huh? Sister, it's so late, you haven't slept yet!"
