"Hmm? What happened?"
Seeing the unnatural expressions on his subordinates' faces, Oran suddenly had a bad feeling.
During this period, he had been dealing with the Gamma Country during the day, and had to guard against sneak attacks by various death squads of the Gamma Country at night, so most things had to be put on the back burner.
He thought he could take a break today, but Oran felt that he might not be able to rest.
"Her Majesty the Queen and Her Majesty the Princess have appeared..."
Orlan was silent for a while, then asked:
"What else?"
In the magnificent conference hall, Queen Isabelle sat at the top. Her gorgeous attire and perfect and delicate face perfectly highlighted her status.

Zhang Feng naturally noticed these things, but he was not unhappy because it was human nature. You can't just let the horse run without giving it grass to eat. It is reasonable for them to have their own demands.
He looked at Isabel in confusion, but the latter had a serious expression on her face, as if she was thinking about everyone's suggestions.
"By the way, Grand Duke, the entire Far North is Zhang Feng's territory, including Silver Pine City."
This immediately made the lords a little angry. They admitted that Zhang Feng was very powerful. After all, the Red Leaf City alone opened their eyes. However, no matter how powerful you are, you are only one person. If you can deal with Orlan by yourself, why bother to summon them? They felt that they had given Zhang Feng enough face by responding to the summons and coming to Red Leaf City with their families. If Zhang Feng looked down on them like this, it would be a bit of bullying.
However, there is also Marquis Zhang Feng among them, which makes people feel a little uncomfortable.
But Oran did not do so now. Instead, it was the same as before, with no big movement.
"Her Majesty the Queen has summoned the lords of the Buck Kingdom to prepare to build a new regime with the goal of eliminating the opposition... eliminating us!"
In an instant, those lords who had remained silent just now spoke up one after another.
"Red Leaf City?"
Duke Archibald's words still carried a lot of weight, and someone in the crowd immediately spoke up: "I agree with Duke Zhang Feng's idea, but I don't know what kind of unity Duke Zhang Feng means by that?"
Isabel turned her head and glared at Zhang Feng fiercely.
Zhang Feng spoke with a smile, then looked at everyone with a teasing look.
I didn't expect that Archibald, the man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, had already "rebelled". For a moment, I didn't know how to start the conversation.
Finally, after discussion among everyone, they felt that by handing over the military power to the queen, although they did not know what Zhang Feng's purpose was, they would undoubtedly offend Zhang Feng.
When the third kick came, Zhang Feng put his hand under the table and grabbed it quickly.
"But I believe more in the ability of Grand Duke Zhang Feng. No matter what you think, I have already handed over the military power to Grand Duke Zhang Feng. I believe that Grand Duke Zhang Feng will not let me down!"
"Of course, Archduke Archibald will not be disappointed!"
…
There is always a bright future ahead!
Suddenly, Zhang Feng knew that this was definitely not an illusion.
"How many people has Zhang Feng gathered?"
Zhang Feng sat on the right side of the Queen. Today, Zhang Feng was wearing a well-tailored black retro suit, which matched his golden-proportion identity and handsome face. He formed a perfect echo with the Queen, and the two of them perfectly integrated into this luxurious conference hall.
Oran recalled that he had previously asked Titus to attack the high-ranking city of Silver Pine, but had failed to capture it.
She had never led an army before, so what should she do? At this time, Zhang Feng, who had been a spectator and had not spoken, spoke up:
But Oran was stunned. The name sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a moment.
Duke Archibald is the oldest and most senior noble here. Even the king has to show courtesy to him when he sees him. Lambert cannot do that. Duke Archibald is open-minded. How dare Zhang Feng speak so shamelessly!
This feeling makes me feel like I'm redundant.
At this point, everyone felt embarrassed and felt as uncomfortable as if they had eaten a fly.
The result was that, except for him and the queen, everyone else at the conference table felt a little embarrassed. They looked at their tacky clothes, and then looked at Her Royal Highness the Queen and Grand Duke Zhang Feng, who were obviously of a different style from them. For a moment, a strong sense of inferiority suddenly emerged in them.
This is the military power of 600,000 troops. This is not a piece of cake! Your Majesty is so casual! Are you really not going to consider it again? Zhang Feng ignored everyone. He calmly put away all the military tokens and said to everyone:
Everyone: “…”
"I wonder what Marquis Lambert has to say? Who do you think is more suitable?"
…
For a moment, everyone sighed. They didn't want this to happen, but now that things have come to this, there is no use regretting.
Zhang Feng narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile:
After all, Her Majesty the Queen would never lead troops to fight. She would definitely let them go. Doesn't this mean that the military power is back? For a moment, their eyes lit up.
Olan suddenly felt a dilemma. If he returned to China at this time, all his previous efforts would be wasted. If he did not return to China now, he could only sit and watch Zhang Feng grow stronger! In the end, he might not be able to return to China even if he wanted to! This feeling made him vomit blood!
At the end, Orlan's voice became much heavier. I knew that Grand Duke Orlan was angry! I quickly said:
He felt that another possibility was that Oran had not received the news yet. After all, this place was located in the northernmost part of the Buck Kingdom, while Oran was in the southernmost part, even deep in his territory. It would take a long time just to transmit the news, so it was normal that Oran had not received the news.
“…”
Zhang Feng thought it was an illusion, but soon he was kicked again.
It was obvious that Zhang Feng didn't believe them.
"You have a point..."
"It's Zhang Feng, the lord of Red Leaf City!"
"Yes, that's right!"
In fact, they didn't mean to sideline Zhang Feng. They just wanted to gain more benefits and hoped that Zhang Feng would back down.
The lords left, looking as sad as if they had lost their parents.
"Since the discussion about military power has been completed, please go back first. After I take over all the military power, I will naturally not let you down."
"I didn't expect her to die, but I left a lot of people in the country to monitor her all the time. She wouldn't have had the chance to make a sound... Who is helping her?"
In fact, when it comes down to it, they responded to the queen's call not only out of loyalty to the king, but also out of consideration for their own interests.
It seemed as if what they said was for the consideration of everyone. In fact, what they said made sense, but Zhang Feng chose not to listen.
Even if they had the chance, they would definitely get it even if it meant offending Her Majesty the Queen! Thinking of this, everyone felt that Zhang Feng would definitely stop them.
Zhang Feng still spoke with a smile.
“Grand Duke Zhang Feng, I personally feel that no matter who we are, it is still difficult to convince the people to lead so many soldiers. Even if we agree, the soldiers under us may not agree, unless... that person has absolute prestige, and all of us, including the soldiers, are willing to follow him wholeheartedly without any objection, such as Her Majesty the Queen!”
Thinking of this, everyone instantly showed a look of watching a good show. They wanted to see what Zhang Feng would say.
The Marquis' tone was respectful, but his words were piercing.
"good."
Lambert was the name of the marquis. He looked at Zhang Feng's facial expression. Although he was smiling, he felt a chill. However, things had come to this point. As someone who was pushed out by everyone, he could only bite the bullet and speak:
At this moment, the queen's ears turned red instantly, the soles of her feet felt slightly itchy, and a strange feeling emerged in her body.
But unexpectedly, Zhang Feng did not retreat, but gave up directly. This was really unexpected!
As soon as Duke Archibald opened his mouth, Lambert and others looked happy, but it was obviously too early for them to be happy.
"Red Leaf City is located in the far north. It is the northernmost city of the Buck Kingdom. Their lord is Marquis Zhang Feng - no, he has been conferred the title of Duke by Her Majesty the Queen."
"The Far North!"
"Grand Duke Zhang Feng, I think we can discuss this further. After all, this is an army of nearly 600,000. One person may not be able to command it all. Perhaps we can select a few more commanders..."
And he agreed:
However, Zhang Feng just looked at them with some curiosity, and then looked at the queen who was a little confused.
Seeing this, Lambert quickly spoke to Duke Archibald, who had remained silent.
When leaving, Zhang Feng vaguely heard their sighs.
During the eye contact, Zhang Feng reached out and scratched it gently.
"yes!"
Queen: Let go! Zhang Feng: I didn't provoke you, why are you kicking me so hard? Why don't you let go?
"I also think what Marquis Lambert said makes sense. The more people there are, the higher the tolerance rate will be!"
Now, seeing that the number of soldiers gathered in the Far North exceeded 500,000, and even approached 600,000, they suddenly felt that there seemed to be a real hope of victory! And the probability was not small! After all, according to the news, Orlan only had 600,000 troops, and after such a long battle, there would definitely be a lot of casualties! Seeing this, some of their little thoughts slowly came out.
In Hongye City, Zhang Feng didn’t know how miserable Oran was.
Lambert was smart. His eyes lit up when he saw Her Majesty the Queen sitting in the main seat without saying a word.
After he expressed his guess about "why Oran didn't make any movement", everyone present fell silent. They felt that Zhang Feng's words made sense.
So, there are two possibilities.
"Let everyone come to the meeting room!"
The person who spoke was a marquis, who had more than 8,000 soldiers under his command. He was considered a relatively powerful marquis.
In fact, they didn't want to have a bad relationship with Zhang Feng. After all, they were in the same camp and had a common enemy, so if Zhang Feng really tried hard to stop them, they would take a step back and go back to the previous topic and let everyone take command together.
"It's very simple. Just hand over all your knights and soldiers to me. Only one person is needed to command them. Otherwise, the more people there are, the more chaos there will be. I believe you understand this principle."
Wait, why is this a bit wrong? Everyone was stunned by Zhang Feng's word "good".
"Although what you said makes sense, I believe in myself more."
If he were Orlan, when he heard that there was an opponent in the rear who was frantically accumulating strength, he would definitely be unable to sleep or eat, and would stop its development as quickly as possible!
Zhang Feng spoke to everyone seriously.
It seems to be saying: Let go.
"Archduke Archibald, tell me, do we make sense?"
They were not worried that Her Majesty the Queen would cheat them. After all, what the Queen wanted was people's support, and her needs did not conflict with those of these lords.
Archibald, who was sitting on Isabel's left, opposite Zhang Feng, opened his mouth and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
The subordinate looked at Oran cautiously and said.
Isabel said this completely subconsciously, and then, as if throwing a hot potato, she pushed all the military tokens in front of Zhang Feng.
Zhang Feng never underestimates anyone, not to mention that this is the strongest person in Buck Country! Therefore, before the opponent's means of revenge arrive, improving one's own strength is the most important thing! City Lord's Mansion.
If they give the military power to Zhang Feng now, it would probably be impossible for them to take it back in the future. But if they give all the military power to Her Majesty the Queen, there would be unlimited possibilities.
"So, would you please think about it again?"
Zhang Feng looked at the crowd with a smile. How could he not know about their little tricks? But how could they know that the queen they were talking about was actually in the same group with him? Suddenly, Zhang Feng felt someone kick him.
Once these words were spoken, it was undoubtedly a slap in the face of these lords.
But he thought about it again. With Zhang Feng's intelligence, he couldn't possibly not know about this basic question. It was obvious that Zhang Feng had received some information and was sure that Orlan had a backup plan, so he called all the great lords to a meeting! Thinking of this, Archibald swallowed the words he was about to say.
But Zhang Feng is different. He is also a lord. His needs do not conflict with the queen's. But this is not necessarily the case with these lords. After all, the country of Buck is so small. If some people get more, naturally some people will get less.
In this case, with the comparison, as long as Zhang Feng is not stupid, he will definitely choose a method that is more beneficial to him and to all the lords!
Before, because these people had just arrived, in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, Zhang Feng did not ask them for soldiers. But now it is different. Oran is obviously holding back a big move. To put it more seriously, Hongye City has reached a time of life and death, and they must unite!
Orlan frowned deeply, and the centipede-like scar on his face trembled slightly.
Isabel suddenly groaned, but everyone was still discussing in a low voice and no one noticed the Queen's abnormality.
Zhang Feng said with a smile.
"...So, I personally think that Orlan must have many ways to stop us or even destroy us. We need to unite together to overcome the difficulties. What do you think?"
No, what's going on! Everyone was confused again.
But they soon realized that if they could think of these things, Zhang Feng would definitely think of them too. What if he interfered? This was the military power of hundreds of thousands of troops!
"Based on the information we received, they probably have an army of more than 500,000!"
Zhang Feng: That’s not the reason for you to kick me.
One is that Orlan has enough confidence to face all this. He has a big enough trump card in his hand to deal with all changes! Another is that Orlan has been prepared and has taken precautions against such things. Next, Zhang Feng may face Orlan's thundering means! No matter which possibility it is, it puts a lot of pressure on Zhang Feng.
"I think what Duke Zhang Feng said makes sense. We should unite."
Isabel bit her lips tightly and dared not look at Zhang Feng again, otherwise she would not be able to bear it.
Zhang Feng didn’t think that Oran hadn’t received the news. After all, he could arrange people near Cast Iron City, but he couldn’t. Oran had no insider in the north.
"Hmm~"
Didn't he know what the consequences would be if he agreed? Impossible! He must have known, so why did he agree? For a moment, everyone was a little confused.
However, Zhang Feng did not let go.
"Yes, with so many troops, it's impossible for one person to handle it all. It would be more reliable if we had more people!"
“…”
But after such a long time, Oran had no reaction at all, which made Zhang Feng feel a little unusual.
"Your Majesty, I am a humble subject, but I believe I have the ability to defeat Grand Duke Oran and restore the great land of the Buck Kingdom to me! So, I wonder if you can give me all the military power to command?"
Everyone handed the military orders in their hands to the queen one by one. Looking at the pile of military orders in front of her, Isabel came to her senses. She cursed Zhang Feng in her heart again.
After hearing Zhang Feng's words, the others immediately fell into whispered discussions.
Queen: Let me go, please! Seeing the pleading look in Isabel's eyes, Zhang Feng suddenly felt a kind of evil pleasure.
After taking a deep breath, Orlan said to his subordinates:
Isabel looked at Zhang Feng and they made eye contact.
As soon as Lambert said this, the others were shocked.
Finally, it was the marquis who spoke up: "Grand Duke Zhang Feng, we also know that only unity can defeat the rebels, but if you are the only one commanding, isn't it a bit inappropriate?"
“…”
Zhang Feng: I won’t let you go! Queen: …
Queen: Who told you to throw the trouble to me? I can't fight a war!
"I know you are very capable, but after all, there are many people here who are qualified to give orders!
So, he smiled and said:
“…”
Orlan suddenly felt a little regretful. He should have led an army of 300,000 to attack the Far North! However, it was too late to say anything now. He could only hope that the other side had not yet fully formed its scale.
"Ah? Good!"
Zhang Feng did not stop them and let them discuss it.
Before these lords came to Hongye City, they might not have considered so many things. Some of them might have come to repay a favor, some might have acted on impulse, and some might have been ostracized in the Oran faction, etc.
“There is the Knight Alec, who is highly skilled in fighting, the Duke Stephen, who is experienced in war and famous for his command, and the Duke Archibald, who is highly respected and admired…
“…”
"Shouldn't you hold your ground and let us argue our case? Shouldn't we start a standard see-saw negotiation? Why did it end so suddenly?"
"You reacted too slowly! If I had asked Her Majesty the Queen for troops earlier than Grand Duke Zhang Feng, wouldn't that be... Alas!"
"Oh...I regret it!"
…
"Zhang Feng, you, you should let go!"
"No."
