I Will Be The Crowned King - v4 Chapter 459 end

"Dukasky family, why do you suddenly ask this?"

Under the dawn of the early morning, the little secretary who was opening a can for Lisa looked curiously at An Sen who suddenly came over, and smiled a little puzzled; He hummed and called the dagger to draw the heads of three people on it.

"Why, shouldn't I ask?" Anson rolled his eyes:

"As the commander-in-chief, you should know the background of your subordinates, shouldn't you?"

"No no no... I didn't mean it that way." Pulling open the can tab, Allen waved his hand in a panic:

"...So you really don't know?"

"What do you think?"

"Okay, then please allow your clerk to put it another way... How much do you know about Lieutenant Colonel Alexei?"

"Um…"

An Sen, who frowned, tried hard to recall for half a minute, until the little secretary opened two cans and brought the freshly boiled water, and the squeezed eyebrows finally loosened a little: "I only heard Norton mention it. Alexey fled from the Empire to Clovis, impersonating the identity of a fallen army officer, and Dukasky... should be the Dukasky family of Fort Glory, right?"

"Exactly." The little secretary nodded slightly:

"Although the Dukasky family of Fort Glory is only an earl, it is not an ordinary wealthy family like an empire. The family history even exceeds that of the Clovis royal family, the Osteria family... Of course, the empire is basically a famous and wealthy family. Longer than the Clovis royals."

"Mmmmmmm..."

The chief of staff nodded casually, signaling the little clerk to speak quickly.

"The Dukaski family...their situation is rather special." The young secretary's expression gradually became serious: "In addition to the title of Earl of Fort Glory, successive Dukaski family masters also hold the title of court marquis."

"The reason is that the ancestors of the Dukasky family were not from the empire, more precisely from the southern part of the empire, but from a certain clan tribe in the east. The name taboo is completely untestable. The only thing we know is that they finally took refuge in the Dragon Knights. Herid, who later followed Wolf the Fire Knight, became a vassal of the Grand Duchy of Brahm."

Understood, because the Dukasky family was once a vassal of the Herid royal family and a foreign clan worthy of wooing, so in addition to the fief of Glory Castle, they can also hold the title of court marquis... Anson nodded slightly: "But this and What does Alexei have to do with running away?"

"Because the key to the 'Fire Knight Dukaski' family's ability to keep their title of court marquis lies in the special affinity between them and the Wolf family." The little secretary said as he handed the can to Lisa:

"I don't know the specific situation. To put it simply, the Wolf family once died out. Although the power of the Fire Knight's bloodline is not as rare as the Sea Knight, it is difficult to ensure that each generation can awaken."

"The inheritance law of the Grand Duchy of Brahm seems to be very complicated. The Wolf family cannot easily marry or marry ordinary minor nobles. The direct consequence of a series of problems is that the power of the fire knight's blood is cut off... But Grand Duke Brahm, or The other half of Archduke Brahm must be a fire knight."

"So it can only be the Dukasky family who came forward and provided the Wolf family with a talent of the Fire Knight's bloodline?" Anson thought thoughtfully: "But isn't this a good thing, why does Alexei have to ask for it? What about running away from marriage?"

"Uh..." Alan Dawn's face changed slightly, as if there was something unspeakable: "But, it may be because he not only wants to marry the person designated by the Wolf family, but also can't keep his original surname. ?"

"The designated person, so Norton's repentance is... eh?!"

An Sen suddenly realized something, and his expression suddenly froze: "Wait! You, you just said... marry?!"

"That's right!" The little secretary nodded dazedly, with pity in his eyes: "Not only that, Alexei, who married in the past, has to give up his family name, be erased from the family tree, and become the Wolf family. members of the Wolff family tree, but not in the Wolff family tree."

"In exchange, the Dukasky family can continue to hold the title of court marquis, and have a position second only to the Wolf family in the Grand Duchy of Brahm... Well, in terms of influence, it is not as good."

"Wait a minute, this progress is a little faster..."

Anson quickly raised his hand to stop the little secretary who wanted to continue: "That is to say, because of the extinction of the Wolf family and a lot of messy things, they must rely on the Dukasky family to continue and inherit the power of the Fire Knight's bloodline. , in exchange for the Dukaski family getting a higher status?"

"And the person of this generation who needs to sacrifice for the family is Alexei?"

"As far as we know, yes." Allen nodded slightly: "Of course, the more specific things are not clear. After all, we are not the parties. Unless Alexei takes the initiative to speak, it should not be known."

"In fact, after several generations of marriages, it is difficult to say which of the two families, Wolf and Dukasky, has more of the bloodline of "Fire Knight Wolf", especially since the main family of the Wolf family once died out. After one time, there may be more Dukasky family; but years of inertia and the special status of the court marquis have completely distorted the inheritance lineage of the Dukasky family, and went all out to cultivate the talent of the fire knight, I just want to be the sacrifice of the Wolf family..."

Anson can understand this somewhat, because he has a living example around him; the difference is only that the Rune family is for a higher level of evolution, and the Dukasky family is a title.

Alexei didn't want to become such a twisted sacrifice, so he chose to flee, but he didn't change his name, which showed that he still cared about his family... fleeing was not a betrayal.

It is precisely because of this that when Norton Crosell took the initiative to find him, Anson would agree to his request and use a task that anyone can complete to transfer Alexei away to avoid flesh and blood.

"Well, if you say that, isn't Alexei very dangerous now!" The **** the side suddenly woke up and said, "The main force of the remnants of the Bolei Legion is attacking Slave Harbor. If there are people in there..."

"It's okay, don't worry too much about him." Anson shook his head with a smile, and lightly patted Lisa's little head:

"Captain Slave Port is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it will not fall to the point where it will fall in just a few days; not to mention how much combat power the remnants of the Bolei Legion can have that have run out of ammunition and food, if the information is correct, Alexei has built a four-line defense line on the outskirts of the town, and it can be done for three or four days."

"If you count the time until today, it will be at most two days. We and Norton will arrive at the port of slavery tomorrow morning at the latest, and join Alexei and the others to encircle the Boley Legion - even if the Dukasky family is inside, We also have a way to avoid a conflict between them and Alexei."

Anson is quite confident in this point, and he has even planned it: since Boley Levant is not in the remnants of the Legion at all, it is entirely possible to negotiate with the rest of the people, such as exchanging the remnants of the Levant family, allowing The rest of the people "recaptured" Slave Harbor and then retreated to Sail City. Ludwig Franz, who got the information, would definitely not miss such a good opportunity to completely destroy the power of the Levant family in the Crusaders. .

"Uh..." Before he finished speaking, the little secretary on the side suddenly showed a somewhat embarrassed expression:

"Regarding the situation in the port of slavery, there may be no way to predict the development as you hoped..."

Um?

Anson's expression changed, and he and the girl looked at the embarrassed Alan Dawn at the same time: "What's going on?"

The little secretary, who pressed his lips hard, lowered his head, silently took out a letter from his arms and handed it over: "This, this is the urgent news sent by Lieutenant Colonel Norton Crosell from the hussars. Originally, I wanted to give it to you after breakfast."

"The above said that the Battle of Slave Harbor is over... Lieutenant Colonel Alexei and the acting commander of the Mujahideen Army, Pavel Dukasky, joined forces to wipe out the last remnant of the Levant family... completely wiped out!"

"…what?!"

………………

The stunned Pavel froze in place, staring intently at the extremely embarrassed, extremely familiar figure whose face was hard to see, as if his entire body was petrified.

It's not just him, but the guards at Slave Harbor also felt the same way. They all widened their mouths and widened their eyes. The rifles slipped from their hands and hit the insteps without realizing it. They tried to remember the opposite. The self-proclaimed name of the guy who called himself the Acting Legion Commander—or more precisely, his surname.

Dukasky?

He, he said his last name was... Dukasky?

That's not, blah blah blah...

The soldiers were at a loss, and Alexei was at a loss. His right hand that was holding the handle of the knife involuntarily loosened. His empty mind seemed to have forgotten everything, and seemed to understand everything.

No wonder... No wonder the sneaky priest patted his chest and said, what kind of big business this is beneficial to him, he must have planned it long ago!

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and Alexei let out a long sigh to regain his composure, and walked out of the trench.

The company commanders and the chief purser in the back row wanted to keep up, but he reached out his hand to stop him, and watched his back, not daring to move.

"Second Infantry Commander of the Storm Legion, Alexei Dukasky!" Alexey stared at Pavel, his calm voice could still be heard a little trembling:

"I accept the surrender of your army as the highest military commander of the defending army of Chanugang!"

Pavel was stunned, his slightly raised eyebrows showed a little dissatisfaction.

Out of the corner of his eyes, he glanced at the heavily armed defenders on the opposite side, and the disarmed soldiers behind him. He quickly concealed his small emotions, took off his saber as if nothing had happened, and handed it to him with both hands.

But the expressionless Alexei didn't take it and was still looking at him coldly.

"Alexie..."

"It seems that it is not enough to have only your own saber, Your Excellency Acting Legion Commander?"

Without giving the opponent a chance to speak, the commander of the second infantry directly stole: "Since the Levent family has been wiped out and Boley Levent himself is missing, it seems that your own identity alone is not enough to represent the holy war in front of you. Army."

"This... there is no such thing!"

Pavel was stunned for a moment, then followed with a smile: "Misunderstanding, Your Excellency is really misunderstanding, it is precisely because I have been authorized by everyone in the entire jihadist army that everyone is disgusted with the arrogance of the Levant family. , Boley Levant decided to surrender to you only when he acted arbitrarily."

"It's enough for me to take care of things like surrender, and I don't need to ask other people."

"Oh, is it?" Alexei said with an expressionless face:

"With everyone's authorization, that means that no matter what I ask of you, you can agree and disagree on their behalf. Is that what you mean?"

"This... words can't be said with absolute certainty..."

"Then I now ask you to ask all the nobles and leaders of the entire army to stand up and surrender to our army in their respective capacities. Can you help me with this?"

"I... Your Excellency, please don't go too far!"

"Excessive, this is too much?" Alexei suddenly raised his right hand: "Marcus!"

"exist!"

"You count down thirty from now. If I don't say stop, fire immediately, and send a signal to the shooting corps ambushing on both sides of the position to let them start immediately!"

"Yes!"

The voice fell, and the loud countdown sounded on the ground; Alexei, who slowly put down his hand, still stared at Pavel's face, UU reading www.uukanshu.com made no secret of his provocative intentions:

"This... is just too much, understand?"

Pavel's expression darkened immediately, and his slightly narrowed eyes wished to burn Alexei to ashes - although he couldn't.

Even on the contrary, Alexei, who had awakened the power of his bloodline, could easily turn himself into a human torch; as his elder brother, Pavel knew exactly how powerful his own brother was, otherwise it would be impossible to turn him…

"I stand up to the infamy and responsibility by myself, in exchange for all the nobles in the legion to acquiesce you to get the actual command of the jihadist army, and also sell a big favor by the way, pretending to sacrifice is actually taking advantage of it." Alexei sneered. :

"Pavel Dukowski, don't think I don't know what you want to do. I've seen you use this trick countless times when I was a kid. It might be useful to others, but to me... um... disgusting."

"Alexey, don't do this." Pavel finally couldn't help saying:

"I don't know how you became an officer of the pagans in the New World, but you listen to me carefully, these nobles are really important to the Dukasky family! As long as you sell them a favor, our family may be able to..."

The voice stopped abruptly.

"Don't you guys, it's like you have forgotten your identity." Aiming at Pavel's face full of cold sweat with his flaming finger, Alexei said word by word: "Your current identity, It is my prisoner; what you have to do is to obediently persuade those nobles to surrender their sabers and take the initiative to admit their surrender."

"Otherwise... I'll let you know what will happen to the person who disgusts me!"
