Chapter 482 Unexpected Materials
The guidance went smoothly. Lu Chen's unverified "gargoyle legend" was exactly what Clarence and Kenny wanted, and immediately let his subordinates spread the gargoyle incident in the army. After all, they didn't care what this terrifying thing was, which did not mean that ordinary people could accept it. It would be more appropriate to have a reasonable statement about so many soldiers who witnessed it. Moreover, its hideous appearance is indeed very similar to the image of a demon spread by the Holy See. It is easy to arouse the curiosity of those who are interested.
But the two of them were familiar with their operations and the lack of a single word "why", which made Lu Chen, the weaver of lies, confused.
"Haha, there's nothing strange about this. You probably knew that this thing called a gargoyle would cause panic, so you specifically 'telled' this legend, right? I'm safe, no matter how you say we are all pillars of the kingdom, there is still common sense and awareness." Seeing Lu Chen's puzzled expression, Kenny smiled and explained.
"Yes, there are few religious believers in our country, but they account for nearly half. As long as one of them raises questions or makes any remarks, the consequences are unpredictable; not to mention that this kind of thing is global, and the Holy See is always thinking about controlling us Fenexu like the Kastin Empire." Clarence added after he ordered people to collect all the corpses of gargoyles.
Think about it, the development of the kingdom requires stability, and the superiors will inevitably hide some secrets that affect harmony. Things like gargoyles that will cause people to be uneasy will inevitably be given an acceptable explanation. Thinking of this, Lu Chen, who accidentally worked as a free laborer, was speechless about his blind worry. Fortunately, the two lazy guys who were not brain-wracking did the rest and felt a little balanced.
However, after the battle, Lu Chen ignored the complicated and trivial matters and left a sentence that the little loli told him, "There are also battles in the royal city", so he ran aside to check the condition of the red thorn flowers.
So his irresponsible words made Clarence and Kenny busy in panic after being shocked.
It is impossible for the main legion who is less than three to fight Angus head-on. After midnight, no matter how easy the battle was, the soldiers must have been very tired. The Red Thorn Flower, which has the greatest advantage, fought two consecutive games. The only feasible way to help the capital was to bypass the South Gate rebels and raid the West Gate.
"Angus will not foolishly attack the capital. If there is any war, it will be the defenders of the capital who can only attack the North Gate that he is difficult to assist, and to the east is Ulysses' army. Although Lucien said that he changed his position, whether it was out of caution or distracting the rebels, all we can choose is the enemy outside the West Gate. Disperse them and then assist the North Gate." A vacant land was used as a temporary command post. After discussion, Kenny, the chief of staff, briefly summarized it.
Time is tight, and Clarence gathered the chiefs and deputy commanders and a group of right-hand assistants as soon as Lu Chen left; as for cleaning up the battlefield and dealing with the dead bodies, it is enough to arrange them and let the captains take responsibility. Anyway, there is no limit on the time to clean the battlefield.
"If we go all of them, will it be too late to go?" When Lu Chen stopped, Xiu and the two seniors became familiar with each other. Unlike when he first took office, he dared not say a word.
"It's still some time before dawn. If we use cavalry to move quickly, there should be no problem. Maybe we can eliminate Ximen's enemy in our sleep." With Xiu's introduction, Lester, the commander of the Qianfeng Mercenary who was eager to show, immediately expressed his opinion. After all, excluding the 145 and corps with limited credibility, his cavalry has the strongest combat power. It would be too unreasonable not to seize this opportunity to make a contribution even if it fails.
"You are right. Our combat power can only help Wang Du, so we should act quickly with the cavalry. If everyone has no objection, gather all their cavalry and be commanded by me." Not much time, Clarence immediately made a decision, and the latter sentence was also asking Neilman, the commander of the newly surrendered legion, because he had the largest number of cavalry under him.
Of course, Neilman knew that the second prince did not intend to seize military power, and his own cavalry had only one battalion, and the other battalion was from the 15th Army. He immediately entrusted both cavalry out without any hesitation, and made a hint that he would not need to return it again. But he never expected that he wanted to use his useless subordinates as a favor, indirectly attracting Lu Chen's attention, and to get a few puppets to equip it, which aroused Lester's hostility.
Fortunately, after Clarence, who was a little surprised, took over the ownership of the two cavalry, he immediately assigned them to Leicester, which made him eliminate the fear of losing favor and his eyes turned into pride.
"Hmph, what a fool, I wasted such a good opportunity." Neilman, who understood Lester's thoughts, felt a little contempt for the mercenary. Since he used to serve Angus together, Neilman naturally knew the commander of the Furious Mercenary, so he asked when he saw him appearing next to Clarence. At first, he was a little envious of him for surrendering to Lu Chen so early, but now he found that he actually chose Clarence. Although he was also a good master, compared to Lu Chen, Neilman was full of indifference and mercy for this mercenary.
The brief meeting ended very efficiently with the cooperation of Neilman. After handing over all the follow-up matters to the commander of the 27th Legion, Clarence left Kenny to help Leicester organize the team, and ran to find Lu Chen alone.
At this time, Lu Chen, who went to visit the girls, was unfortunately trapped by the "little maid" incident. Fortunately, Sila, who was impatiently waiting, used the powerful light elements to automatically turn the seventh-level gargoyle into a stone statue, and then sent it to him, indirectly freeing the siege for him.
"Chenchen, what is this? Why is it so scary?" Kellys was the most curious and knocked at the gargoyle.
There is nothing to hide from the girls around you. Lu Chen, who finally escaped the teasing of everyone, quickly moved out what the little beauty demon said, but when he finally warned everyone to be careful and try not to give them a chance to transform in the future, something that he could never imagine would happen.
