Chapter 697: Chapter 242: I Want to Expand the Army (10,000) (4)
Mark looked up at Godfrey and spoke.
"Knight Commander Godfrey, you have been a long-ti household attendant of the Ducas Clan, feel free to speak."
Lawrence also turned his gaze toward Godfrey.
Godfrey stepped forward and stood before Mark and Lawrence.
He spoke calmly, "Your Excellencies, I believe leaving Triumph City at this ti is actually a good thing!"
Lawrence, sowhat surprised, echoed Godfrey’s words, "A good thing?"
Mark did not speak, waiting for Godfrey’s explanation.
Godfrey, without any hesitation, began to explain.
"Currently in Triumph City, both His Highness Mitchell and His Highness Caesar are busy wooing various lord nobles."
"If we remain in the city, we are bound to end up caught in the sches and calculations of both sides."
"Even if the Marquis has made his stance clear by siding with His Highness Mitchell."
"However, if soone wants to fra the Marquis and arouse His Highness Mitchell’s suspicion, it is not difficult..."
"It’s just a matter of forging a docunt or letter!"
Mark nodded in agreent, "Indeed, continue."
Lawrence, after pondering a mont, also nodded in agreent.
Godfrey acknowledged and continued, "Now, the Marquis has received instructions from His Highness Mitchell to leave Triumph City and garrison at Windmill Ridge Canyon."
"Doesn’t this just an we stay away from their machinations?"
"As Lord Lawrence ntioned, as long as the two princes have not completely torn apart, the Red Dragon Cavalry Corps will not attack Triumph City."
"This ans that the soldiers of the Sword and Shield Corps stationed at Windmill Ridge Canyon are in a relatively safe position."
"No matter what changes occur in Triumph City, we can always say: stationed by order!"
Godfrey’s words did not stop there.
"And the most important point... I do not know what kind of garrison order His Highness Mitchell gave to the Marquis."
"Or one could say, His Highness Mitchell rely requires the Sword and Shield Corps to garrison Windmill Ridge Canyon."
"But did not require the Marquis to be stationed here as well..."
Upon hearing this, Mark’s eyes brightened.
Godfrey naturally noticed the brightness in Mark’s eyes; he bent slightly and spoke humbly.
"Your Excellencies, the above are rely Godfrey’s humble opinions."
"The specific situation still requires your Excellencies to decide."
Mark looked at Godfrey, full of admiration and said, "Knight Commander Godfrey, you truly are the advisor my father once had; you spoke to the point and hit the nail on the head..."
"A simple few words, and it suddenly beca clear to !"
Godfrey bent again and responded, "The Marquis overpraises."
Mark pondered for a mont.
His gaze shifted, looking at Lawrence across from him.
Before Mark could speak, Lawrence, who had already understood, asked first.
"What do you need
to do? Just say the word!"
Mark smiled serenely, "Then Lord Lawrence, from this mont on, you will take charge of garrisoning Windmill Ridge Canyon."
Lawrence replied casually, "In leading troops to battle, my abilities are above yours."
Mark instructed, "And one more thing!"
"No bringing any distracting won into the camp!"
Lawrence’s mouth opened slightly, but considering the current situation, he ultimately chose to relent.
Seeing Lawrence fall silent,
Mark stood up from the wooden chair and strode toward the tent’s entrance.
As he reached the curtain, he paused.
Mark addressed Godfrey, saying, "Knight Commander Godfrey, the Ducas Clan requires your loyalty!"
"Just as you loyally served my father before!"
Godfrey knelt with his right leg, performing a standard knight’s pledge of loyalty.
"Of course, my Lord Marquis."
Mark continued, "Knight Commander Godfrey, I need you to follow
back to Bordeaux City, to participate in the Ducas Clan’s future developnt discussions!"
Godfrey responded, "As you wish."
Mark nodded, "Very well."
At the tent entrance.
Lawrence stood still, watching Mark mount a warhorse, along with Godfrey and a squad of cavalry, as they galloped away from the camp.
A strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

...
His [Breeding] skills experience was rapidly increasing.
With a thought, Lynn opened the [Heavenly Artifacts] panel and glanced at it.
[Breeding: Level 2 (418/500)] ( )
He was not far from reaching Level 3.
At this point, the entire Karedi Empire had already entered early June.
The average daily temperature had already reached the twenties.
During the day, as the sun shone, the temperature gradually rose, warm and pleasant, perfect for daily labor.
Due to the marine climate, the temperature difference between day and night was small.
Even at night, there was no biting cold.
While Lynn was improving his [Breeding] skill proficiency.
The red brick house residential area at the back of the town was finally completed!
After the registration led by Kuisi and Petra along with a group of townsn,
over seven thousand peasants and slaves moved into the red brick houses.
Looking at the Lord’s Square, where six thousand townsn were gathered, their faces beaming with excitent and joy,
Lynn raised his hand slightly, and the six thousand townsn quickly quieted down in response.
