Clover City is located at the southernmost tip of the Half-Elf Kingdom.
The Crystal River and the Nushui River meet here, cutting the city into three areas in a Y shape, resembling three-leaf clover grass, which is why it is called Clover City.
Needless to say, the importance of Clover City's geographical location is of course, but the strange thing is that this city is a typical "no matter what" area.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to understand such a situation.
It is precisely because its geographical location is too important, so although the northern and eastern borders wanted to bring it under their control, they were worried about irritating each other, so they tacitly threw it to the half-elven kingdom as a neutral kingdom. No one touches the buffer zone.
And for the Half-Elf Kingdom, this is also a hot potato, and they dare not take care of it at all.
As a result, Alfalfa City looked particularly awkward.
There is no lord, no city defense army, and no order.
This place has gradually become a paradise for adventurers, a settlement for refugees, and a carnival for anarchists.
Strength has become the only passport in Clover City.
However, today's Clover City suddenly became quiet.
Even some powerful bigwigs obediently hibernated, and at the same time sternly warned their subordinates not to cause trouble these days.
Because suddenly several troops stationed in the city, including even the prestigious Black Cavalry Army!
Although there are many lawless robbers and murderers in Clover City, they are at most cockroaches and mice in the shadows. When they see real lions and tigers, they have to be careful to hide, otherwise, they are very likely to be wiped out .
The most majestic building in the north of the city is the Guanghui Church.
In such a chaotic city, the Radiant Church is one of the few places of peace.
Don't think that wicked people don't have faith. In fact, it's just the opposite. People who lick blood every day and don't know when they will die on the street need a spiritual sustenance so that they don't go crazy.
When Colin walked into the main hall of the church, he saw the figure that he had been thinking about all the time—Queen Aisha.
The Queen was standing in front of the statue of the Lord of Radiance, bowing her head and closing her eyes, praying devoutly.
Speeding up his pace a little, Colin came to Queen Elsa's side.
Not seeing her for half a year, Queen Aisha's lower abdomen has become more obvious.
The faint radiance of motherhood radiates from her body, coupled with the noble and elegant queen temperament, it is even more attractive.
Aware of Colin's arrival, Queen Aisha finished her prayers, turned her head sideways, showed a charming smile, and said:
"I thought you'd be late."
"Knowing that you are waiting for me, of course I will travel day and night! What's more, don't underestimate the marching speed of the black cavalry."
Colin smiled and stepped forward to embrace Queen Aisha carefully in his arms, and grabbed those delicate red lips, tasting the long-lost fragrance.
After some tenderness, Queen Aisha leaned on Colin's chest and asked in a lazy tone: "Your appointment with the Eastern Realm is three days away, right?"
"Yes, I have sent envoys across the river to discuss the exchange of prisoners."
Colin put one arm around Queen Elsa's waist, and stroked her swollen belly with the other, but it didn't take long before he began to climb dishonestly.
Queen Elsa snorted softly, grabbed Colin's mischievous hand, and said angrily, "This is the church!"
Ke Lin looked down at the imaginative snow-white gully, his heart was about to move, but he had no choice but to be honest and asked:
"Is there any problem with the food production of the Half-Elf Kingdom this year? This round of turmoil has delayed the spring plowing in the northern border a lot. It is estimated that the famine will continue or even worsen. Therefore, I need your help."
"No problem." Queen Aisha said confidently, "At the beginning of the year, I specially issued an order to persuade farmers to increase the intensity of spring plowing and opening up wasteland. It is no surprise that this autumn will be a bumper harvest."
"That's good!" Ke Lin breathed a sigh of relief, "As long as we survive this year, the northern border will be able to recover, and everything will slowly get back on track."
"However, when you send people to buy food this fall, you'd better bring the army." Queen Aisha's eyes flashed a stern look.
"What's wrong? Someone is being dishonest?"
"Well. At the end of last year, you forcibly purchased a large amount of food from Silvermoon City at a low price to rescue the northern border. Many half-elf merchants and nobles were dissatisfied. If you do it again this year, I am afraid that some people will overestimate their capabilities and make Folly."
Colin narrowed his eyes, and his tone became serious: "I see, after I go back this time, I will ask Duke Merdewing to lead the Silver Moon Guards back to the Half-Elf Kingdom to help you suppress the domestic situation."
Queen Aisha shook her head lightly and said, "No hurry. I can still stabilize the situation in the half-elf kingdom now. The Silver Moon Guard should stay in the northern border first. You need it more. After the autumn harvest, let Mo Di It will not be too late for Duke Wen to come back."
Although Ke Lin was still a little worried, he didn't want to reject Queen Aisha's kindness, let alone make the other party think that he doubted her ability to control the domestic situation.
"Okay. If the situation in Silvermoon City changes, please contact me immediately."
"kindness."
After a moment of silence, Queen Aisha spoke again: "The situation in Clover City is a bit unusual recently."
Ke Lin didn't care, and said with a casual smile: "The regular army has entered the city, so of course the cockroaches and mice in the shadows are all hiding."
"No, that's not what I mean." Queen Aisha's tone became serious, "Since the beginning of the year, a force named 'Clover Brotherhood' has suddenly risen in the city, sweeping away all major gang forces in the city at an extremely fast speed. , has initially taken control of Clover City."
"Oh?" Colin became serious now, "Who is the leader of the Clover Brotherhood, do you know?"
"It's a fifth-tier warrior named Capone, who was wanted by the Eastern Territory for resisting the lord's call-up order, and then fled to Clover City.
Although he is outstanding in force, he did not do well in Clover City, a place full of dragons and snakes. Until the beginning of this year, he suddenly began to form his own forces, which expanded at an extremely fast speed, and now it has almost become the city. titular master. "
"Is there someone behind him supporting him?" Colin guessed.
"That's what I thought too, and I suspect the East is supporting Capone and the Clover Brotherhood."
"East Realm... Hehe, it seems that they are not honest." Ke Lin's eyes began to become dangerous.
"Yes. However, you don't have to worry too much.
After you wiped out the Pegasus Legion in Silvermoon City, the St. Pros family lost one of the most elite troops directly under them. They must not be able to touch the northern border in a short period of time. They tried to control Clover City with this unsightly trick. It is also worried that the northern border will establish a navy in Silvermoon City in the future, and go down the Crystal River. "
Ke Lin thought for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Clover City cannot be allowed to fall under the control of the Eastern Realm!"
Queen Aisha raised her head, looked at Colin and said, "Isn't it good to have a conflict with the East Territory at this time?"
Ke Lin shook his head and said, "Don't worry, since the East Territory has chosen to use such an unappealable method to seize Clover City, isn't it because it is also worried about a direct conflict with the Northern Territory.
Therefore, it can be seen from here that the Eastern Realm is also weak. "
"Then what are you going to do? Take advantage of the black cavalry in the city and directly destroy the Brotherhood of Clover?"
Colin rubbed Queen Aisha's soft belly, and pondered: "No, it's better not to use military force to interfere directly. I'm also worried that the East Territory will be pushed into a hurry. If they jump the wall in a hurry, it's okay to start another war in Clover City. wonderful...
How about this, Clover City is under the rule of the Half-Elf Kingdom after all, so you can appoint a Clover City Lord in the name of the Half-Elf Queen!
Let him unite with the forces in the city who are unwilling to succumb to the Clover Brotherhood and fight against it.
In short, just don't let Clover City completely fall under the control of the East Territory. When the North Territory recovers in the future, there will be an excuse to intervene. "
Queen Aisha thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go find a suitable candidate."
"En. If the city lord fails and is killed by Capone, you can continue to re-appoint a new city lord. But never send regular troops into Clover City.
Just let these wolves in the city bite and fight each other, so that the Brotherhood of Clover can't easily unify the forces in the city. "
"I understand. Clover City is full of lawless and vicious people. It is not difficult to find an opponent for Capone, and it is even easier to make chaos here."
Seeing that Queen Elsa could understand his intentions so quickly, Colin approvingly kissed her smooth forehead.
Queen Elsa's mouth was full of spring, and she suggested with a smile: "There is a hot spring behind the church, do you want to take a dip?"
"OK!"
Of course Colin would not refuse, and immediately hugged Queen Aisha by the waist.
Amidst the exclamation of the other party, he strode out.
