All-round magician

Chapter 159

"Lano, I'm announcing now that you will be dismissed as the deputy head of the Royal Advisory Group!" Julian was so angry that he couldn't choose what to say, completely forgetting that the contract cannot be terminated by him alone.

"Tsk tsk, it turns out that the Cadias Empire turned out to be a back-and-forth rat. Look at the letter of appointment and the contract, it clearly says five years! Forget it, since the Cadias royal family can't even pay [-] gold coins Since then, Auntie, I kindly excuse you!" After saying this, Aphra threw the letter of appointment heavily in front of Julian to the army behind him.

"Your Highness, let's pay the money..." Julian's adjutant immediately stepped forward and suggested by sticking it in his ear.

The Glorious Continent is a continent that attaches great importance to contracts. As long as an agreement is made, it must be fulfilled. If today's incident is spread, the royal family of Cadias will be discredited and the world will despise it.More importantly, Julian's younger brothers were also coveted for the throne, and they would not let go of any opportunity to slander him, and they would definitely report this matter to his father's ears with embellishments.

No matter how much reluctance Julian has in his heart, one yard counts for one yard, and he should pay the money to Aphra first, but as the poor man who was played like a monkey, he still has a heart. If he was unwilling, he just let it go, so he uttered wild words, but he regretted it after he finished speaking. Unexpectedly, Aphra didn't give him a chance to repent, and immediately took the words, blocking his escape route to death of.Now he can't slap his tongue, and take back what he said in front of so many soldiers.

"Kill, capture Moslace for me, kill Lanno!" At this moment, Julian had only one thought in his mind. After his death, no one will criticize him, and his father will trust him as always. After all, the winner is the king, and the loser is the bandit. The history of every era is written by the strong.

"Your Highness is bad! It's bad, something serious has happened..." As soon as Julian's words fell, many of his subordinates had no time to react. A man wearing a Cadias military uniform, covered in blood and with a smudged face, was killed by two The soldier ran up to Julian on his back.

"What's the matter?" Seeing this man with scars all over his body, Julian felt unspeakable uneasiness in his heart.

"Returning to Your Highness, I am the deputy general of the [-] support army. Our army encountered a surprise attack [-] miles ahead, and the entire army was wiped out! The general sent me out desperately, and asked me to report to His Highness. ..." There was unspeakable pain in the man's voice, and he took out his own seal after he finished speaking, then tilted his head and passed out.

When Julian saw the vermilion letter, he was dizzy, his body dangled in mid-air, and almost fell to the ground.

"Your Highness, Your Highness..." The surrounding generals also looked at him solemnly.

"Where's the general?" Julian stabilized his mind and regained a calm expression on his face, as if the scene just now was just an illusion.

"He, he passed out!" A general reminded stammeringly.

"Okay, Lan Nuo!" Julian roared through gritted teeth, who else but Lan Nuo would ambush his [-] reinforcements, but at this moment, except for a few senior generals close to him, he did not dare to let the rest The soldiers know this, otherwise the army will be in turmoil.

"His Royal Highness Julian, do you still want to fight?" Aphra sat on the dragon's back, saw the movements of the people below, and immediately guessed that Ross had succeeded. She was overjoyed and asked knowingly.

"Send the order and withdraw!" Julian ordered with a livid face, knowing that today would be impossible.

"Your Highness, this..." Several generals felt that such a hasty retreat would shake the morale of the army, but at this moment, what can they do if they don't retreat, "Yes!"

"Take this general out and treat him well!" Before leaving, Julian hadn't forgotten the bloody lieutenant general.

"Yes!" The general quickly carried the lieutenant out.

"Uh, didn't Julian shout for a fight just now? Why did he become a coward and run away?" Kara looked at the reaction below strangely.

The rest of the people on the tower also had different expressions on their faces, and they looked curious. No one noticed that there was a vicious line of sight at the end of the crowd that was cast on Aphra.

"Let's go, work is over, you can go home and rest!" Aphra jumped off Nata's back and greeted happily.

"Aphra, tell me, why did they withdraw their troops?" Kara's curiosity was not satisfied, she still raised her beautiful face and asked eagerly.

"How would I know this? Maybe Julian is anxious!" Aphra spread her hands forward, shrugged her neck, and looked innocent.

"Impossible, why would he choose this moment when he is not in a hurry? It's really strange!" Cara was still muttering to herself, and her words made everyone laugh.

Joss quickly grabbed her and motioned her to stop talking. This silly sister couldn't even hear Aphra's perfunctory.

In any case, it was a good thing that the battle did not start, and a group of people ran back happily.

After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, Andrew pulled Aphra into his room.

"What's going on?" Andrew closed the door and asked straight to the point.

"Come with me!" Aphra shook her head helplessly, knowing that she couldn't hide the matter from Andrew, she hurriedly took him to a secret room.

"Julian's [-] reinforcements were wiped out, and Los didn't return home at all. He took his subordinates and a small team from the secret group and set up an ambush on the long slope twenty miles away. Just now, Julian knew That's why they withdrew the troops." As soon as they entered the secret room, Aphra immediately explained the matter to Andrew briefly.

"Okay! As expected of my granddaughter Andrew, well done!" Andrew laughed loudly, but in the next second, displeasure appeared on his face, "However, why don't you even hide this from me?" ah?"

"Hey, firstly, I'm not sure whether this sneak attack will be successful, and secondly, I'm afraid that you guys will know the truth, and you won't be able to act well at that time, so you can't confuse your opponent." Seeing her grandfather change his face, Afu Ra had to explain patiently.

"Oh! Well, for the sake of your doing well this time, then I'll let you go. You can't hide it from grandpa anymore. It made me, an old man, worry for nothing. You know, my old man My health is not very good, if I worry too much, I will have arrhythmia and stroke easily..."

Aphra looked at the chattering, endless grandfather, her scalp was numb, a man with such a loud voice like him is not in good health, and there are not many old people in the whole mainland who are in good health.

"Grandfather, are you thirsty? Drink some water. By the way, who do you think the spy will be?" Afra took advantage of Andrew's chance to drink water, and quickly changed the subject.

"I don't know much about these children. I discussed it with Thomas. He really doesn't know who to suspect. Do you have someone to suspect?" Andrew squinted his eyes and looked at her expectantly.

"I don't have any evidence yet, but sooner or later he will show his feet and surface, just wait!" Aphra smiled reassuringly.

"You girl is playing tricks again, and you're making my old man want to eat!" Andrew snorted displeasedly, "By the way, even if the 10 people are removed, our army is far smaller than Julian's, and he also has a team." Great magician, what should we do now?"

"Wait!" Aphra lowered her head, thought for a while, then raised her head, looking directly at Andrew with clear eyes, "I actually delayed on purpose today so that Julian could withdraw. After all, if we fight, even if we win There will also be heavy losses, so let’s think about a good strategy and try to minimize the casualties.” Since she has become the city lord, she can’t act according to her own habits, but should consider the overall situation and strive for the maximum benefit .

"Well, you kid, you've always been so mature!" Andrew nodded approvingly.

In the middle of the night, the gate of the Cadias barracks was brightly lit. The soldiers standing outside on duty cheered up and stared at the surroundings with vigilance. He suffered enough, suffered a total of [-] boards, his skin was ripped apart, and one who was weak died on the spot.

"Who is it!" The team leader held a spear and pointed at a man in black who emerged from the grass.This person was also wearing a black cloak, which covered his head together, only revealing a pair of piercing eyes.

"I want to see Your Highness!" The visitor took out a pure gold token from his pocket and waved it in front of the guards.

"You little one has blind eyes, please forgive me!" The team leader immediately knelt on the ground when he saw the token.

The man in black let out a heavy snort from his nose. The guard's actions obviously benefited him. After a while, he said in a hoarse voice: "Lead the way!"

"Yes!" The team leader felt relieved, and quickly welcomed the man in black in.

"Your Highness, there is a distinguished guest!" The team leader stood outside the tent, not daring to make a sound. No one knew that His Highness was in a bad temper today. A servant was punished for splashing tea on His Highness's clothes. He was dragged out and beheaded.

"Come in!" Julian's gloomy voice came from inside.

"It's you!" Julian was shocked when he saw the person coming, and quickly ordered to the team leader, "You lead people to guard outside the tent, and you can't even let a mosquito go." Then he closed the tent door again .

"What's going on? Didn't you say that Lan Nuo didn't send anyone out of the city? How could someone ambush our reinforcements? Do you know that an entire army of [-] people, a demon saint, and several great magisters were all killed one by one? , you said that if I can’t take down Mosleys, how can I go back and deal with my father!” He said that losing a demon saint and several great magister Julian would hurt his heart, and if these people all surrendered to him in the future, the throne Isn't it a matter of hand?
