"Heh..." Duke Wilson chuckled: "You have tied your fate to your friendship with George for many years, but I don't have such confidence."
Lord Oram's face flushed: "You... don't you trust George?"
"Of course I don't trust him." Duke Wilson said with a blank face: "There are very few people in this world that I can trust." When he said this, he glanced at Evan, and Evan couldn't help but jump in his heart.
Lord Oram lowered his head in frustration: "I didn't expect that such a thing would happen..."
"There is no need to say more about these meaningless words. He also considered it from the whole point of view. Rand is very important in this incident. It is not surprising that George made such a decision. "Duke Wilson said something close to praise at this time: "On the contrary, it was only once in so many years that he really made me feel that my support was not wrong."
The words of Duke Wilson made Lord Orlam wake up from a dream. He looked at Duke Wilson. In fact, he knew that if there was no other choice, Duke Wilson would not have supported Prince George so obviously, but he did not expect , At this time, he said such words.
"You..." Lord Oram was at a loss for words.
Duke Wilson's expression remained unchanged, and he said solemnly: "Let the messenger come in, I have something to say to him."
Lord Oram nodded in embarrassment. He pulled Duke Wilson in, but he didn't expect Duke Wilson to save him in the end.
The messenger came in quickly. Duke Wilson glanced at the man with a slightly humble expression. Although his eyebrows were low, his strong steps and strong body proved that this man was not an ordinary person.
"Lord Duke." He bowed to Duke Wilson.
Duke Wilson raised his hand reservedly: "Did George send you here?" In this world, besides the king, these royal relatives are the only ones who dare to call the prince by his name.
"Yes." The messenger's tone was soft and courteous.
"I already know what he wants to convey, but I also have something for you to convey," said Duke Wilson, pulling a letter from his sleeve. "You will take this to George." The letter He had prepared it for a long time, and actually expected that he would never use this letter, but now it seems that it is somewhat impossible.
The messenger took the letter very meekly: "Please rest assured, I will definitely deliver your letter."
The messenger withdrew, but Lord Orlam looked at Duke Wilson with great confusion: "What do you want to convey to George?"
Duke Wilson picked up the wine glass on the table, squinted his eyes, and said nothing.
Evan was sitting next to him, but he thought quickly in his heart. Duke Wilson's remarks gradually calmed his anxious heart. At this moment, he was finally able to think about this matter rationally.
It is very common for Duke Wilson to keep a hand on this matter. According to the character of the Duke in the book, before he met the heroine, he was always extremely sensitive and extremely withdrawn. He is no longer as sensitive and withdrawn as before, but his suspicion has not diminished. Now that he thinks about it, he was indeed a little unfounded. When he is with someone like Duke Wilson, he does not have to worry about being isolated and helpless.
Evan glanced at Duke Wilson, who kept silent. Since the Duke has surplus soldiers in his hands, but he wrote to Prince George at this time, it means that the surplus soldiers he left are related to Prince George. Going a little deeper, maybe this is also Wilson. When the Duke tried Prince George's move, Evan's eyes flashed, but he was already thinking about it.
Lord Oram is not a good person to let go, and the duke's silence could not satisfy him, so he asked again: "Lord Duke, it has reached this point, just tell me!"
Duke Wilson waved his hand impatiently, but then he saw Evan sitting thoughtfully beside him. The refusal that had already been piled up on his lips suddenly couldn't be said. He pursed his lips slightly, He opened his mouth and said, "Although my soldiers can be used at any time, George is the crown prince after all, so I still have to tell him."
Duke Wilson said very cautiously, but what he didn't actually say was that the soldiers he handed over to Prince George, although they were nominally his soldiers, he had been living in Derain for many years, and he had been with these people. There are very few contacts. In fact, what he trusts more is the backhand he left behind this time, the soldiers he recruited in Derain, and he gave them orders before he came. If he arrived at three in the afternoon If they don't show up before the point, these people will come to the rescue.
But the letter he wrote to George said that he needed the adjutant he lent George to drive these soldiers. He just wanted to see what choice George would make. George was destined to win at that moment in London, and this time George's choice will determine how Wilson will get along with him in the days to come.
No one could know what Duke Wilson was thinking, but the meaning he revealed made old foxes like Lord Orlam ponder.
Because of Duke Wilson's backhand, the pessimistic atmosphere that had pervaded the three of them suddenly shook. Although the three of them were still quiet, the silence at this time was much easier than before.
The shouting and killing outside became louder and louder, and more and more guards were killed and injured by Lord Oram. At this time, Lord Oram couldn't sit still. He wanted to go out and improve those soldiers. Morale, but was blocked by Duke Wilson in the end, he looked at the time when the clock was approaching three o'clock, and said warmly: "It's useless for you to go out now, before the absolute strength gap, we have nothing to do, and now take advantage of the location. You can hold on for a while, reinforcements will arrive soon, and you will only increase the danger if you go out."
Lord Oram's expression changed. He could actually estimate when the reinforcements would arrive. It seemed that he was really prepared.
Lord Oram was persuaded by Duke Wilson, and he sat back on the sofa. Although the adjutant at the bottom said that he could last for half an hour, in the face of the ever-changing battlefield, Lord Oram did not dare to completely relax. At this time, time began to become unusually slow, but it was only a quarter of an hour, but Lord Oram felt as if a month had passed.
The roars outside had gradually weakened, and Lord Oram knew very well that his guards had reached their limit, but at this moment, a burst of gunfire suddenly sounded.
At this time, guns are still a very rare thing. They are playthings of nobles. Very few soldiers at the bottom can own firearms. Even if the rich enter Lord Oram, there are only about ten guards in his guards, but this time a gun The sound made Lord Oram very sensitively aware that there were definitely no less than thirty guns in this burst of gunshots.
"Is your soldier here?" Lord Oram looked at Duke Wilson with piercing eyes.
Duke Wilson raised his eyebrows with a determined smile in his eyes: "Maybe."
At this moment, an adjutant suddenly ran in. His original military uniform was now somewhat tattered, and his body was still stained with blood and black ashes. He looked very embarrassed, but he had an excited smile on his face. : "Lord Lord! Someone has come to the rescue! Someone has come!"
Oram stood up suddenly, with a very rare excitement on his face, he looked straight at Duke Wilson, and suddenly said: "Lord Duke, thank you very much this time."
He said it so solemnly that even Duke Wilson was stunned.
"You don't have to thank me, I did this for myself." Duke Wilson looked very calm on the surface, but a voice suddenly appeared in his heart, maybe there were other people, he looked at it subconsciously. Evan glanced, he looked so nervous before, but he didn't know that he would rather die than let him fall into such a state of isolation.
Although Duke Wilson's remarks were very rude, Lord Oram was still smiling and didn't mind at all.
"Although you say so, but this time it is you who saved my name. I am really grateful." Although Lord Oram is cunning, he also has the unique qualities of a gentleman in this era. For a person who saved himself, Naturally he had to look up.
Because of the sudden rescue, the situation of the war outside has also fundamentally reversed. Those who were in the hope of winning completely fell into despair in the face of this accident, because they also lost a lot in this war, and they fell into despair. The people who were in ecstasy fell into ecstasy. The people who were tired seemed to have been injected with a cardiotonic at this time, and they all recovered at once.
The defeat of Duke Rand's soldiers was almost a matter of course. After seeing hope, they fell into despair. Unless Jesus was alive, they could restore their confidence, but the soldiers on Duke Wilson's side became more and more brave, even more than It was more difficult before.
At last the war was over in less than half an hour, and Lord Orlam sat in the house, and heard the shouting outside gradually subside, and there was a relaxed expression on his face, but Duke Wilson's expression But still awe-inspiring, he almost looked at the door with a more focused gaze than before. He wanted to see who was coming this time!
Duke Wilson didn't know what he was expecting in his heart. In fact, he had experienced the selfishness of human nature countless times, but as long as he thought of the child who always followed quietly behind him when he was a child, Duke Wilson couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart. Looking forward, he wants to see what George has become after so many years.
Duke Wilson's solemn expression also affected Lord Oram and Evan. Lord Oram was a little ignorant, but Evan, who knew Duke Wilson better, had a thoughtful look on his face. It seemed that Duke Wilson still If you really dig a hole for Prince George, then we have to see how Prince George performs this time. Thinking of this, Evan also looked out the door with great interest.
Ten minutes later, in their opinion, maybe ten years later, the sound of the door finally came, and the sound of leather shoes hitting the floor made the three people in the living room think differently. Finally, when the door was pushed, the three people Looking out the door together...
Duke Wilson looked at the man walking towards him and suddenly smiled.
Still the idiot he used to be...
