Chapter 801 The Princess Generals Determination
"This last point can indeed bring tangible benefits to Her Royal Highness the Third Princess and the Buluo Fortress, and the benefits are right in front of my eyes."
Lei Xiao looked at Caroline with curious star eyes, and did not rush to explain, but smiled lightly and said: "This is even directly related to the future of the third princess and the future of Fortress Buluo."
"My sister, Keqing, please don't be a fool."
Seeing Lei Xiao's appetite whetted, Caroline frowned, and said, "I'd like to see what benefits you can get now that you are too busy to take care of yourself."
"Since Her Royal Highness the Third Princess is so curious, I will speak out."
Lei Xiao stood up from his seat, and while slowly pacing in the hall, he continued: "The third benefit is His Royal Highness Ariel and our entire Lengyan eastern region itself!"
After hearing Lei Xiao's unclear and harsh words, Caroline and Hilda looked at each other, and they both found a hint of confusion in each other's eyes.
Then, I saw Caroline's brows furrowed tightly, and her words revealed a touch of aggression: "My sister, Keqing, are you a little too big?"
"In front of the 300,000 coalition forces of those two guys, you have already narrowly escaped death, so how can you talk about the future of this general and the Buluo Fortress?"
After Caroline finished speaking, the burly and huge Hilda beside her also frowned with her sparse eyebrows.
"Please, Your Highness the Third Princess and General Hilda, think about it carefully."
Lei Xiao's indifferent gaze first lingered on the burly Queen's General for a moment.
Then he looked at Ariel's sister, and said leisurely: "As the saying goes, once we are defeated by the two princes, who can guarantee that they won't rush north and destroy your road to the throne?" threaten?"
Speaking of this point, Lei Xiao's tone became a bit more solemn, and he continued: "It is not difficult to see from this that we are the shield in front of you. Isn't this a great benefit for you? ?"
"Your Excellency, are these words too alarmist?"
Hilda folded her arms around her chest, her sparse eyebrows were already twitched, and she said disdainfully: "The influence of the princes has never been violated by us, and the general has already announced that he will not participate in the throne. What's more, we still shoulder the heavy responsibility of guarding the Buluo Fortress, how could they attack me?"
"That's right, no matter how stupid those short-sighted guys are, they won't dig their own graves, at least they won't regard us as a threat."
On Caroline's fair face, a trace of composure reappeared, and she said lightly: "I'm sorry, my sister, Ke Qing, your remarks didn't move me at all."
Seeing that Caroline remained unmoved, Ariel couldn't help showing a touch of uncontrollable tension and worry on her fair cheeks.
She knows Sister Wang's temper very well, she is stubborn but stubborn, she belongs to the type of not looking back until she hits the south wall, and she has never even heard the words of her father.
Under such circumstances, it is undoubtedly extremely difficult to get her to change her mind.
"But the lord is a person who has created countless miracles. Presumably this time, he will successfully change Sister Wang's opinion, right?"
Looking at Lei Xiao's tall and straight back, Ariel's tense mood immediately calmed down a lot, her starry eyes were full of anticipation.
"Oh? Is this really the case?"
In the center of the reception hall, although Caroline and Hilda didn't want to let go, and even sneered a little, Lei Xiao was neither in a hurry nor annoyed, as if everything was under control.
"Actually, Her Royal Highness the Third Princess and General Hilda have already noticed that a fatal crisis is approaching quietly, right?"
Lei Xiao's rather sharp gaze wandered between Caroline and Hilda for a moment, and finally landed on Caroline's delicate and indifferent face, and said with a smile: "Then, please answer, Your Highness the Third Princess, if The other party doesn't regard you as a threat, why is it indifferent to the famine in the northern border?"
"It is true that the other side does look on the sidelines, but this does not mean that they will directly attack the northern border. After all, in the eyes of those guys, the barren northern border is just a dispensable area."
Caroline's delicate face remained unmoved, and she said calmly, "As long as the strength of my troops does not continue to expand, I believe that the other party will not attack me."
"I didn't expect that Her Royal Highness, the third princess who is said to have inherited the hero king Yongwu, would have a side controlled by others."
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows, and continued to say calmly: "If Her Highness Ariel ascended the throne, she would never be so wary of Her Highness the Third Princess."
The reason why Lei Xiao said that was naturally based on the fact that he had subdued Caroline.
Of course, the first step is to form an alliance with Caroline first, and then make her deeply aware of the power of this alien lord.
"My sister, Keqing, doesn't need to make a big cake for me again."
Caroline snorted coldly, frowned and said: "I have already said that what I need is real benefits. If you can't satisfy me, I will never give the comfort of the North to the 50,000 North border." The life of the army is in your hands."
"Then I'll just say it thoroughly."
Lei Xiao looked at Caroline's delicate face, and still maintained a faint smile: "Since the third princess has always talked about the safety of the northern border and the 50,000 northern frontier troops from the very beginning. Now, then I want to ask Her Royal Highness the Third Princess a question."
Lei Xiao's voice suddenly rose a little, and he stared into Caroline's starry eyes: "Once the Pars Empire is really invincible, how long do you think your 50,000 frontier troops can last? "
"Don't say naive words like reinforcements. The three princes didn't even give you a grain of food. Would they still send troops to help you? Isn't the mountain fortress that almost fell before is the best example?"
"For their own benefit, they even let the opponent's cavalry trample on this land. They will let the Holy Night Kingdom go, and naturally they will let the Pals Empire go. Besides, the northern border is not as important as the eastern region."
"Furthermore, even if other neutral nobles in the northern border are willing to help you, how long can they last without food?"
Lei Xiao's continuous questioning was particularly harsh in the empty hall.
"Your Highness the Third Princess, as a member of Leng Yan's royal family, as the supreme commander here, as the guardian of the northern border, do you think that you can really protect the peace of the northern border as long as you are alone? You are so naive." Extreme!"
Hearing Lei Xiao's merciless words, Caroline's and Hilda's complexions couldn't help but change again and again, until finally they became gloomy.
"Your Excellency, Ke Qing, don't go too far! You are despising the royal family!"
Hilda's rough face was full of chills, and she said coldly to Lei Xiao: "General Caroline has been working so hard for the peace of the northern border, her efforts and dedication cannot be tarnished by anyone!"
"If you are really thinking about the northern border and even the Lengyan Kingdom, then you can't be called competent if you only look at the commander in front of you."
Lei Xiao ignored Hilda's anger, and said every word: "The current Lengyan Kingdom is like the center of a dimensional storm. No one can survive alone. The only choice we can make is to face it proactively and find ways to deal with it." To overcome, or to be passively involved, and eventually smashed to pieces."
"Unfortunately, you chose the latter, but you are still complacent."
As soon as Lei Xiao's words came to this point, Hilda was already furious and said: "Your Excellency, let's stop the meeting here, your rudeness has already offended the dignity of the third princess!"
"Compared with the safety of the entire northern border, do you care more about my few truths?"
Lei Xiao slowly turned to Hilda, who was blushing, and responded lightly: "If you can't even listen to a few words of the truth, why are you talking about the safety of the northern border?"
"You bastard..."
At this time, Hilda was like a half-orc who had gone mad. She was about to take a step forward, but Caroline waved her hand to stop her.
"My sister Keqing, continue talking."
Unlike Hilda, Caroline's exquisite face quickly calmed down again after the initial shock. Although she looked expressionless, there was already an indescribable meaning in her star pupils.
It seemed to be admiration for Lei Xiao's outspokenness, and it seemed to be surprised that Lei Xiao despised him so much.
"Then I will continue. Although the words are harsh, they are also loyal words."
Lei Xiao smiled lightly and continued to talk.
"It is conceivable that the reason why the three princes have not attacked the northern border is because they feel that the reward is not proportional to the reward, because the northern border is relatively barren and cold enough for soldiers in other regions to adapt."
"However, if the northern border is already lingering under the double blow of food shortage and the Pals Empire, so that it is within easy reach, will the three princes give up this vast land?"
"After all, compared with other regions, the northern border also has many unique advantages, such as being able to transport a large number of elite ice magicians, and training more elite soldiers, not to mention those who can only grow in the northern border. Precious alchemy materials and ice-type magical crops."
"The most important thing is that for the sake of power, these princes didn't even let Her Royal Highness Ariel, whose strength is almost negligible, be spared. Could it be that they will finally let you go, the third princess who holds the military power of the five legions?"
"Even if you give up the right to inherit the throne, the royal blood flowing in your body is enough to become the original sin in their eyes."
Having said that, Lei Xiao raised his head, smiled at Caroline and said, "As long as Her Highness Ariel and I are still fighting against the three princes, the other party will never be able to spare a hand to conquer the northern border and deal with you. Isn't that an excellent benefit?"
"My sister, Keqing, now I fully understand why my sister was able to get to where she is today step by step with your help."
Caroline stared at Lei Xiao intently, and said with emotion: "Whether it is as a lord from another world, or as a strategist and eloquent guest minister, you really have unparalleled excellence."
"His Royal Highness the third princess is admirable. In fact, I have many other strengths. Maybe in the future, I will show them to you one by one."
Lei Xiao slightly raised his eyebrows, and unceremoniously accepted Caroline's compliment.
"But General, this guy is too self-righteous!"
I saw Hilda's big rough face still showing an angry look, and said angrily: "He offended your dignity, this must not be easily forgiven!"
"Hilda, if I bury the northern border in my own hands, that would be truly unforgivable, let alone being a member of the royal family protecting the Kingdom of Lengyan."
Caroline waved her hand to Hilda, and said with a smile: "Actually, you have already realized it? If we continue to sit and wait like this, it is indeed tantamount to giving up the life and death of the northern border to others, but we I just dont want to admit this reality.
"My lord general is right. Although Your Majesty Ke Qing speaks frivolously, the words are printed on our hearts. It can be heard that he is really thinking about me."
Hilda was silent for a moment, then saluted Lei Xiao and said sincerely, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I was reckless just now."
"It seems that although this Hilda has a hot temper and a special appearance, she is also a person who understands righteousness."
Lei Xiao thought of this in his heart, and then smiled at the burly general of the Queen's Kingdom: "General Hilda, you are being polite. You are just protecting Her Royal Highness the third princess. It's not a big deal."
Lei Xiao clearly understood that if he subdued Caroline in the future, it would naturally be equivalent to subduing Hilda.
Moreover, as one of the generals of the eight kingdoms, Hilda led the most elite royal army.
This means that once the alliance with Caroline is successful, it will definitely play an extremely important role in order to increase its confidence in winning the battle.
To be able to get the full assistance of such a hero on a battlefield where life and death are at stake, I am too late to be happy, so how can I embarrass the other party?
Furthermore, if you show generosity at this time, you will also gain favor from both Hilda and Caroline, so as to increase the possibility of forming an alliance.
In the final analysis, what I said just now was indeed intentional and extreme, and it was also a means of turning against the guest. With the mind of the third princess, I naturally could not fail to understand the meaning of it.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding."
Sure enough, after hearing Lei Xiao's words, Hilda's eyes immediately changed slightly, and her vigilance was significantly reduced.
"My sister Keqing, I'm asking you one last question."
Caroline slowly took a deep breath, her eyes were sharp and solemn: "If you count us, how confident are you in defeating the 300,000 coalition forces of those two guys?"
"The situation on the battlefield is changing~www.mtlnovel.com~ I think Her Royal Highness the Third Princess knows it all too well, so I can't make any promises to my future allies in this situation where the enemy is outnumbered, after all, what the other party showed last time The hidden combat power revealed has completely exceeded my expectations, not to mention the menacing attack this time."
Lei Xiao shrugged and said bluntly: "But I can be sure that if Her Royal Highness the Third Princess is willing to form an alliance with us, at least this time all of us will fight for our own future, and there is no need to put life and death in the hands of others." in the hands of others."
"I didn't exaggerate, but I answered sincerely. It seems that you really came here with enough sincerity."
Caroline and Hilda looked at each other, and they both saw a touch of approval from each other's eyes.
Then, the smile on Caroline's exquisite face gradually grew stronger, and she said with anticipation: "Are you fighting for your future? In the gloomy northern border, I haven't heard such passionate words for a long time."
Having said this, Caroline stood up from the metal throne, and said to Lei Xiao and Ariel seriously: "My sister, my sister, Keqing, as the commander of the Buluo Fortress, I am willing to form an alliance with you and go together Pursue the future that belongs to you!"
