Thirty miles after the carriage left the city, the dozens of knights in front were still opening the way. All the way to the east below here is flat land, without hindrance.
To the surprise of the knights, Miss Delly ordered not to go all the way to the east, but half of them were split up to go north for a hundred miles...
This kind of order made the escorting knights feel very puzzled. But since the order was issued like this, everyone has no objection.
In the carriage, Princess Louise looked at this close friend beside her - she saw the seriousness on Miss Delly's face.
Suddenly, the princess sighed softly: "Dai Li... are you doing this for your brother?"
"Well, what?" Delly smiled, with a bewitching and pure smile on her beautiful face.
There was a glint of haze in the eyes of the princess, and she said in a low voice: "Dai Li, we have known each other for many years. You have always been smarter than me, and you think more than me. But this time... you think, now, I Still don't understand what you're doing?"
Miss Delly's smile seemed a bit forced, but then she calmed down, looked at the princess, and said slowly: "Louise, since you can see it, then I have nothing to say."
"I just didn't expect that you would use me." The princess's tone was a little dissatisfied, but she still leaned lazily on the seat cushion: "We left in such a hurry... What did you do to the Tulip family in the city? "
Miss Delly hesitated for a moment: "Louise, you'd better not ask about these things. Just treat it as if I owe you a huge favor. I promise, I didn't do anything to frame Duke Tulip, but, I just took something from them."
"Hum!" The princess's voice became cold, staring at Delly. Her tone gradually became unfamiliar: "Dai Li, I always thought that no matter how men fight and swindle, we women are just women after all. I think our friendship between the two of us is pure and clean. You... you are about to be The princess is gone, why do you still get involved in this kind of thing?"
Miss Delly smiled bitterly, and she sighed: "Louise, you were born into the royal family, so there are some things that you don't understand even if I tell you. To you, the word family may just mean father and brother. For a girl like me, it's an inescapable task!"
finished. She opened the carriage window, looked outside, and gave the order again to make people speed up. After finishing all this, Miss Delly leaned against the window sill without closing the window, and murmured: "Oh... Unfortunately, I did it too hastily. I'm afraid I still left a hole for that Philip in the past few days. I was worried about being seen through by him. That's why I had to leave in a hurry."
There was a moment of silence. Delly turned her head to look at Princess Louise again, and said quietly: "Princess, my lord. I know you have a crush on that Grand Duke Tulip in your heart... But. Am I not your friend? Besides, this time I come to Northwest, seeing everything here, don't you feel a little bit?"
"Feel? What does it feel like?"
"Duke Tulip's power!" On Miss Dali's face, there was an unfathomable incomprehensibility that did not match her appearance and age. In that war, the news that was released to the world afterwards was that the Northern Storm Legion, the Royal Guards led by my brother, and the troops of the Tulip Family combined to defeat the Northwest Legion... But, Princess Louise, those news were nothing more than It was sent to everyone in the world. But... my brother participated in that war himself, so I know the truth!"
Seeing Princess Louise's bewildered expression, Delly's eyes revealed a complex look, which contained pity, but even a hint of envy: "You, after all, you don't know! The Regent has always been kind to you. Well protected, not letting you get involved in these complicated government affairs, let alone getting involved in these mundane things, I hope you live a carefree life. But I am different! Princess Louise, the truth of that war is : Thousands of cavalry under Duke Tulip's command wiped out 70,000 cavalry of Lu Gao of the Northwest Army with ease! That's 70,000 cavalry! And there are more than one kind!! However, this kind of war weapon is exclusive to him, and has not been handed over to the empire. The Tulip family is located in the northwest, and the military and political power is in their hands. Tens of thousands of soldiers, coupled with such a powerful Weapons of war have been used for a long time... Hmph, do you think the regent is at ease?"
Princess Louise suddenly changed color: "You... did you steal the secret weapon of the Tulip family?!"
Then she lowered her voice and asked, "Who did you do this for? Could it be my brother Chen, who asked you to..."
"No." Delly's smile seemed indescribably complicated: "I did this for my family. In the current situation, the regent has made it clear that my family will fight against the Tulip family. We don't mind To be a weight for balance, but we feel that our weight is too light compared to the Tulip family! There has never been a trace of warmth in politics! Now that we have been promoted to this stage, it will be a life-and-death situation from now on .If we want to fight against the Tulip family, our family must have the same strength... And... "
As if she had made up her mind, Delly smiled suddenly: "Louise, I believe Prince Chen knows about this matter! Do you think Prince Chen is completely ignorant of all my arrangements? Hmph... My dear Louise, think about it carefully! Why is it such a coincidence that a few days ago, he arranged for you to meet those young nobles, knowing that you would run away afterwards! Moreover, I took you to escape But the regent didn’t let the Imperial Forest Army chase after him! Everything, although it can’t be said that he instructed me to do this. However, I think he should just sit back and indulge!”
"I... I don't believe it!" Princess Louise interrupted: "Delly! My brother would not do this! I know he trusts the Grand Duke Tulip very much, and even Charlie and Mary are given to the Grand Duke Tulip to teach... "
"Oh, really?" Delly leaned over suddenly. Gently touched Princess Louise's shoulder, and sighed softly: "My dear Louise, you are so simple. Let me tell you something... Do you know, Duke Tulip, he will often come from Big Ear City in the northwest... You know Big Ear City, right? That famous sinful city, where all prisoners are locked up. But the Duke of Tulip has already bribed the garrison commander of Big Ear City very early, and fixedly Time, I took a prisoner from Big Ear City back to serve as a labor force! Because the population of Northwest Desa Province is not large. Therefore, Big Ear City has become a regular source of labor for Duke Tulip! This matter, Your elder brother, the Regent, knew about it a long time ago. And I know it. The Regent has already set up an eyeliner in Big Ear City—this is normal, any smart monarch will supervise his subjects. s method.
Just a few months ago, when the Northwest War just ended. We learned that the Tulip family has such a powerful weapon of war. From a certain source, I learned that they produced that kind of thing in the northern city of Gilliat, and I have been planning this matter. So, I figured out a way to pass Big Ear City!
I sent a few loyal dead soldiers to sneak into Big Ear City as prisoners first, and then when the Tulip family sent people to select the prisoners to go back to work as labor, my men bribed the soldiers in Big Ear City, and were arrested. The Tulip family bought it back. Serve as a slave. Entered Gilliat City! After several months of hard work, I got what I needed. "
Speaking of which, Miss Delly seemed to smile. Said softly: "Dear Louise, these practices of mine, the regent's eyeliner in Big Ear City, don't you know? I think he knows, but he didn't say anything!"
Princess Louise really had nothing to say now, she looked at her close friend, and after a long time, she took a deep breath: "So, this time you took me out of the imperial capital, with I came to the Northwest and everything was…”
"It's all arranged by me." Delly admitted straightforwardly, and there was some apology in her eyes: "I'm sorry, Louise, I know I used you this time. But I have to do it. Because your princess Identity will be a good protective barrier for me. And... I promise, this is the first and last time. After we go back this time, if you are not willing to forgive me, then I will understand in the future. I will go back After that, I will marry your elder brother soon, and you can continue to be your worry-free princess. Okay?"
Princess Louise opened her mouth: "But, how could my brother treat Grand Duke Tulip..."
"As I said, he didn't instruct me to do this, but he just acquiesced." Princess Delly sighed, "Louise, you are so naive. No monarch will tolerate his subjects threatening to threaten you." Your own power! No matter how loyal Duke Tulip is to the regent, no matter how much the regent trusts him... But, the powerful weapon is still in your own hands, so you can rest assured!"
A powerful weapon is more reassuring to hold in your own hands.
This sentence made Princess Louise really believe it.
"Besides, this time I got it, and when I go back, I will give a share of what I got to the Prince Regent." Delly said lightly, "I think he will be very satisfied if I do this."
At this moment, the knight's exclamation suddenly came from outside!
"God! Look at the sky!!"
Miss Dai Li was startled, and immediately looked out, and saw the sky above her head, suddenly there were a few figures flying past, it was a few Decepticon squads flying by on broomsticks!
Delly's complexion changed, but she calmed down quickly, with a smile on the corner of her mouth: "Hmph, it seems that Mr. Philip really noticed it! Even the Decepticon Sky Knights were sent out... It's a pity, I originally The strategy of dividing troops and confusing them has failed."
Her face was extremely calm, without panic at all, and she shouted to the people outside: "Don't pay attention! Speed up!!" During the process, one team after another of Decepticon squads appeared more and more frequently. Finally, above the ground, chariots and horses were galloping, while above the sky, several Decepticon squads circled back and forth above their heads.
And the guards behind also sent a warning: "Miss! There is dust flying on the road behind. It seems that a large number of pursuers are coming!"
Sure enough, looking back, I saw the dusty sky above the main road, and I heard the neat and dense sound of horseshoes in the distance.
Seeing the flying dust, the experienced guard knights immediately exclaimed: "It's cavalry! It's a regular brigade of elite cavalry!"
Soon, the pursuers drew closer, and the flag of the cavalry at the front was clearly the army of the Tulip family.
"Miss, what should we do now?" A guard knight rode to the side of the carriage.
Miss Delly pondered for a moment. His eyes flickered, then he took a deep breath, and decisively issued an order: "Everyone stop! Line up on the spot! Without my order, don't act rashly!"
finished. She quickly closed the window. Then he looked back at Princess Louise with a surprised expression on his face: "Sorry, Louise, I need your help now." Naturally, it was General 250 Longbottom.
After he received Philip's order, he was certainly puzzled, but he is now loyal to the Tulip family, so no matter what kind of princess or concubine he is, he just needs to follow the boss's order. And... he, Longbottom, really didn't have a good opinion of the imperial family.
After all, Longbottom was still smart. He knew that this matter was no small matter, so he brought his subordinates. All of them are the direct descendants of the veterans he picked out who had followed him on the northwest grassland. These people are well trained. The horse was excellent, and with the guidance of the Decepticon team in the sky, they quickly caught up.
Seeing that the carriages and horses in front suddenly stopped. Longbottom was startled for a moment, and then grinned: "Hmph, the prey has stopped! Brothers, go up and surround it!! All of them are there, surrounded by roundabouts on the left and right sides, first-level combat readiness!!"
Under the majestic voice, the elite cavalry immediately separated the two teams and walked around from left to right.
Nearly a thousand cavalrymen were the most elite trained by Longbottom, and soon they surrounded the other party's chariots and horses with more than a hundred people in the middle, and the surrounding cavalrymen formed a circle. Spears, aimed at the besieged group in the middle.
Longbottom rode his horse and took two steps forward, shouting loudly: "Princess and Princess, please come out and talk!!"
Among Daili's guarding knights, a leader was full of anger, and shouted: "Bastard! Is the Tulip family planning to rebel? Dare to intercept the princess and princess's carriage, do you know what a serious crime it is!"
As he said that, with a sound of swipe, the knight drew out his long sword and slashed twice threateningly.
Longbottom didn't even bother to look at this bluffing guy. With a sneer on his fat face, he squinted his eyes, only staring at the luxurious carriage in front, and shouted: "Miss Delly! I think you should I know what we are chasing here for! Therefore, I personally suggest that you better not let your idiots pretend to be heroes! I will count down dozens of times, and you order all your guards to dismount, put down their weapons, and stand still with their heads in their hands... Otherwise if… "
With that said, his war horse took two steps forward:
The knight who pulled out his long sword immediately stood up and blocked Longbottom's direction, pointing the long sword at the two hundred and five generals: "Longbottom! Don't think I don't know what you are! You are just an officer who committed a crime and was dismissed. How dare you offend... "
Before he finished speaking, a cold light flashed in Longbottom's eyes! All of a sudden, the two hundred and five generals grabbed the spear hanging on the horse, grabbed it with one hand, and without any nonsense, with a whoosh, he suddenly stabbed at the knight!
Puff! The spear pierced through the knight's chest with a flash of grudge, piercing through the guy's body!
Poor that knight, with a scream, blood spilled from his mouth, the long sword in his hand fell to the ground, and with a short scream, the whole person was picked up by Longbottom's spear!
Longbottom held a spear in one arm, picked up a corpse, and flicked it lightly...
Snapped! When that corpse fell to the ground, all of Delly's guards boiled. Soon someone shouted loudly, and everyone raised their swords to charge upwards!
Longbottom let out a long laugh, swung the spear in his hand in a circular arc, and heard a few bang bang bang bangs, knocking down the long swords of several guarding knights around him.
"Miss Delly, it seems that you don't care about the life and death of your subordinates."
Longbottom's other hand has already been raised up, as long as he swung it down, it was a gesture of ordering to let go and kill!
