"Prince Elro!" Under the escort of a team of cavalry, Li Ran stepped forward and bowed slightly, looked at the man and said, "I didn't expect that after parting in the capital Pierbond a few years ago, I would meet you here today."

As for the King Elro, looking at the person in front of him, he couldn't help but say in a daze: "I remember that I passed by the auction house that was rebuilt and reopened. I didn't expect that in just a few years, you have gone from an unknown new marquis to the mainstay of the Khanlok Empire and the famous Prince of the Protector of the Country of Terres. It's really touching to think about it now."

And the next moment, Prince Elro also put away his emotions and looked at Li Ran with a bright look and said, "But here I advise you to go back. The arrogance of us has made the empire pay a heavy price. The humiliation of the Khanlok Empire for many years is believed to have been compensated this time, but if you take a step forward, you will be really going to be with the empire."

At this time, Li Ran looked at him and said solemnly: "Maybe for you, this time I paid a certain price, but for the decades of humiliation of our subjects of the Khanlok Empire, all this is just the beginning."

Hearing Li Ran say this, the King of Elro couldn't help but say angrily: "Didn't that guy Mednachi beheaded by you in public in the City of Firewood? What do you want to do now? Do you really have to do your own thing? You must know that Cruyard has reached a consensus with our king, and maybe you will withdraw your troops that day. Then you will be alone. Do you still want to be an enemy of our entire empire!"

"As the prince of the Khanlok Empire, since I stepped onto your territory, my soldiers and I have never thought of going back alive." At this time, Li Ran said solemnly: "As for the thorn of Mednache, if the king of your country took the initiative to hand over it, I would naturally choose to withdraw my troops, but the current situation was exchanged for the price of blood, and in the end it was swallowed by ourselves! What's even more annoying is that your so-called king, who has not realized his mistakes to us except calling on people to resist. If I go back at this time, how can I explain to our citizens!"

After saying this, Li Ran, who seemed a little excited, said loudly again: "Don't use the 300,000 troops behind you to scare us. I have said before that if we dare to stand here, we have already put life and death aside. For the sake of our acquaintance, we will give you three days to consider leaving. Otherwise, three days will be the time for you and me to fight!"

After saying this, Li Ran also turned the reins and did not give this person a chance to refute. He led the guards behind him to leave the place. Then, without moving the front army, the army behind slowly retreated and retreated to a town territory occupied when they came.

"Sir! The opportunity is here! They actually entrusted the army to retreat in person when the war was about to come. This is a good opportunity. Should we launch a charge now?" At this time, a human general could not help but ask.

Duke Elro hesitated for a long time, and finally waved his hand and said, "Forget it, this person has the name of a god of war in the Khanlok Empire, and can defeat Bandake and three other dukes with one force, causing chaos in the entire southern region. How could he make such a low-level mistake? This is obviously a trap. Let's go back and tell the king about this as soon as possible."

Although he was a little unwilling to give up, before confirming it, he heard Prince Elro say so, and this person seemed to be hard to say anything, so he had to nod helplessly.

"I know your thoughts, but the current situation of the empire cannot fail again, and there is still negotiation there." Knowing that this person is the military and political chief sent by the capital, the Duke of Elro also comforted him: "So without absolute certainty, we must not start a war easily, because if something goes wrong, the consequences will be very serious!"

The military and political chief also sighed and said, "I can understand the idea of ​​lord, but those barbarians are like wild animals. As long as they taste the taste of flesh and blood, they cannot be resolved by negotiation. I am afraid that our king will waste his time and will inevitably fight in the end."

If the city is still there, Prince Elro may not pay attention to him at this moment, but seeing that the man was still unwilling to accept it, he thought about it and suddenly said, "You may not know some things yet. Duke Drevis has come here, so for the sake of the overall situation, even if a battle is inevitable in the end, we will still have to delay for a while now. It is just right now. With these three days, you go back and report the situation here to the king, and we will act according to the opportunity."

Hearing Prince Elro's words, the military and political chief couldn't help but lit up. After seeing the former's affirmative expression, he immediately nodded and said, "Okay! I'll take people back to ask the king's meaning later, but you should be careful here. Prince Telres said it nicely, but who knows if he will make a fraud behind his back?"

"Don't worry! I will keep the army on alert these days, and our scouts are already everywhere here. Whether during the day or at night, as long as they move, I will know about it." Prince Elro also nodded and said.

Three days passed quickly, but the war that everyone had been waiting for did not come as scheduled. The reason was that Prince Erro suddenly chose to retreat the afternoon before.

Seeing that Prince Elro, who was very famous in the empire, was so afraid of the invaders from the Khanlok Empire, Grinnada couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. However, what was also surprising was that the powerful Prince Terres did not take this opportunity to go with the trend. Instead, after taking a circle, unexpectedly, after conquering a medium-sized city, he chose to stay here without moving.

When the news came, many people were a little confused, but soon as the information came, they knew the reason. It turned out that at some point, the vanguard army of the Empire Dreves and Bringchev had quietly set out, and the number of people they went to fight this time reached an astonishing 700,000 people, and they had already come to fight here.

Although in the eyes of those who are interested, the route of the expedition between Dreyvis and Duke Bringchev this time was a bit strange, because judging from the actions and routes of their vanguard army, it seems that the fastest route was not chosen.

But at this moment, people didn't care about these things. They all turned their attention here, who understood the importance of the next battle.

For all the people of the Grinnada Empire, they may never have felt ashamed, and never felt so nervous as they were at this time, nor had they ever been so devout as they were at this time. As the number of people entering churches and praying in various places surged, the bells in the largest church in the capital of Grinnada were also continuous.

Everyone knew very well that this war, commanded by King Rolf himself, including the two princes and only two remaining dukes, would be the biggest battle between them and the invaders, and would directly determine their empire and everyone's future destiny.

Victory! They will completely expel these two invaders who have plagued the empire for months while maintaining the dignity of their large empires!

Defeated! They will completely lose the glory of the large empire while their troops are greatly damaged. Not to mention the complete destruction of this national war, they may be in the shadow of these two neighboring countries for decades or even longer in the next few decades.

Fortunately, it was not known whether it was because the king took the battle personally or because he realized the seriousness of the situation, the Grinnada Empire had an amazing unity in a sluggish atmosphere. As the noble lords led their respective battle groups to come from far or near, the number of imperial royal coalition forces here increased dramatically, the morale of the entire empire was also rapidly rising.

Compared to Cruyard, this high morale has really brought a lot of trouble to Li Ran. Not to mention that no one dared to move the transportation line before, there were suddenly many noble lords who were either blatantly harassing or dressed up as bandit groups to attack. Even the firewood city where Xia Houben was stationed, there were news that the patrol corps were sneak attacked for several days.

Although it seems like a trivial matter, Li Ran is very clear that when the other party's morale is rising, if the situation is allowed to develop, it will make the people of Grinnada even more unscrupulous, and eventually it will even lead to an uncontrollable situation.

Whether it is a transportation line or a furnace city, it is very critical to him. The former is related to his own safety and interests, while the latter is nothing more than their reliance in the enemy's territory at the moment. If there is any problem with these two aspects, then their trip will not only be meaningless, but even the last little security will be gone. Therefore, no matter how complicated the situation is, Li Ran will never allow chaos here.

So after communicating with the accompanying army Toltaylor, Li Ran also issued an order with this person at the same time. In addition to the defense and attacking of the Furnace City, all the garrisons along the transportation route were dispatched. In addition to discovering that the enemy was killed on the spot, once it was discovered that it was the noble lord who was responsible for it, Prince Pamela organized a coalition forces to attack, flattened his territory, and exterminated his family!

It has to be said that Li Ran's decision was very direct and cruel, and even aroused the anger of all the citizens of Grinnada. This can be seen from the increase in the number of attacks along the transportation route within one or two days after sending this message, and the killing of a nearly 1,000-person Kodo Beast Cavalry regiment outside the Firewood City.
