There was no longer any rush to take the other party's life, but the Northern Archduke was obviously not ready to let the other party leave.
After receiving the order, John returned to the Archduke's barracks without much time, but there were already many people inside.
The news that Otto was defeated by the Stuart family has spread throughout the camp for some reason.
If it is true, it will be a big blow to their army.
Therefore, all the respectable guys gathered at the Grand Duke.
Assuming that the striker was indeed eliminated, they were discussing their next move.
John's arrival immediately attracted everyone's attention.
At this time, someone had already thought of John's sensitive identity.
If something unexpected happened to Otto, it would undoubtedly be an opportunity for John.
Of course, with the Baker family's obstruction, it is still difficult for John, who has an unjustified reputation, to succeed like Lorne.
But no matter what, John, who successfully became the eldest son of the Grand Duke, will definitely get some benefits from it.
How much depends on his current performance.
And John did not disappoint.
As soon as he arrived, he told everyone what he had pried out from the mouth of the Stuart family envoy.
Hearing that the other party was actually in front of them, the people from the North naturally became more stubborn and clamored to go over and push the Stuart family to the ground and rub them hard.
John, who had his own purpose, was naturally not far behind, and this guy also came up with an idea in order to eliminate other competitors.
"Everyone knows that the Stuart family has given up the honor that belongs to the nobility, so I suspect this is a trap for them.
They deliberately lure us into the bait, set an ambush and then attack our effective forces.
But we are from the north.
Even if we know there is a trap and someone provokes us, we will definitely fight back.
Therefore, I proposed that my people should merge with some of the noble warriors to explore the opponent's true identity at night.
If there is really any despicable trap, I am just a small lord in the north.
If the Stuart family captures me, it will not shake the morale of our military in the north.
I ask you all to avenge me when the time comes, and the North will surely win the final victory."
It sounds like he is really sacrificing himself for others, but John, who has long been in cahoots with the Stuart family, is not in any danger at all.
What he called leading people to test the Stuart family's camp was just to pull his direct troops out of the camp in the north.
But his words were not all lies, at least he didn't lie about one thing.
That is that the Stuart family has indeed given up the honor of the nobility.
After tasting the taste of a successful sneak attack on the horse-trampling company, they have fallen in love with this feeling.
As long as they can win, they don't care about any fair showdown.
After John comes out and brings them some Northern flags, the Stuart family, which has transformed into the Northern Army, will let the Grand Duke of the North and the others experience the despair that Bruce and his gang felt at the beginning.
And at the same time, the Stuart family assassins who had been hidden in the camp by John would immediately cooperate with their own family's attack to take the head of the Northern Archduke.
Even those marquises are on John's assassination list.
Only when all the big shots are dead will John have a chance to successfully become the new Grand Duke of the North.
The best thing is that he can also take this opportunity to gather the scattered northern soldiers.
When the time comes, he can put on a show with the Stuart family and pretend to repel them and become a hero of the northern border.
With such great momentum, he could already claim to be the Grand Duke of the North.
Of course, if he wanted to successfully and legally succeed to the throne, the orphans and widows in Tallinn City were also the targets of his eradication.
Thinking that he would soon rule the North, John almost laughed out loud as he spoke.
Fortunately, after braking in time, he begged his father, who was about to die, for his life: "Grand Duke, please give me this opportunity to prove that the people of the North will never back down in front of villains."
In fact, after hearing John say that this was a conspiracy of the Stuart family, no one had come to compete with John for this position.
After all, in the eyes of these big shots, this war has little to do with them.
If John was going to lose an army, they might as well give each other a favor.
Marquis Clark, whom Lorne was most familiar with, was the first to speak up to support John: "Since Baron Carter is so confident, the Grand Duke might as well give him a try.
Anyway, it was only one night, and we were following after dawn, and the history of the Stuart family ended here. " Before Keira was convicted, the Stuart family became sinners of the empire.

Therefore, outlawing the Stuart family was the official purpose of this trip south.
After Marquis Clark finished speaking, others followed suit.
The content is nothing more than supporting the sending of troops to teach the Stuart family a lesson, to reduce their morale and at the same time provide an opportunity for the large army to destroy the Stuart family after dawn.
It's just that in the face of such anger from the heroes, the final decision of the Northern Grand Duke was a bit unexpected, but it was indeed in line with the style of the Northerners.
"Of course we should teach the Stuart family some lessons, so this time I decided to lead the harassment.
The others will prepare on the spot and wait for dawn to march to the destination to deal a devastating blow to the Stuart family."
The Archduke did not mean to attack at night, but to circle the Stuart family's camp and use the speed of the northern cavalry to harass them.
After allowing the opponent no rest for a night, others gave the Stuart family a fatal blow.
The security of the entire force has been greatly improved, and it has also deviated from John's original plan.
But this still doesn't trouble him, or in other words, after leaving the camp voluntarily, it will be easier to kill the Grand Duke of the North.
"Grand Duke, please allow me to go into battle with you."
As long as he follows, the army whose whereabouts are exposed will be a huge target in the eyes of the Stuart family.
The best thing is that it is impossible to bring a large number of troops during a night march.
Tens of thousands to nearly ten thousand can be considered a large scale.
John himself had nearly three thousand cavalry, and the Archduke could only bring five thousand at most.
This is a conservative estimate, as the larger the force, the more difficult it is to control at night.
If you don't want to cause unnecessary casualties, then five thousand people is actually an optimal number.
But having these five thousand people to guide them like an arm at night is not a task that can be accomplished if they are not year-round companions.
But this is for ordinary people, Lorne's reformers are the most adept at night attacks.
Even when traveling at night, their speed does not slow down.
Relying on the dim light of the moon, one could barely make out a giant black shadow running on the road.
This was Lorne's team
