Steel, Guns and the Industrial Party Across the World Chapter 503

"Hello, Marshal Macdonald, my teacher, Mr. Aldridge, has ordered me to wait for you here."

Kevin looked in awe at the old marshal who got off the carriage. After arriving at Gabela, one of the first celebrity deeds that Kevin learned about was this Macdonald. He joined the imperial army and won countless battles for the empire, and all the surrounding countries knew his name.

The Untouchable MacDonald - that's how he was called by his enemies.

"Is your name Kevin?" Macdonald asked, looking at the young man in front of him.

"Yes, I am Kevin."

Kevin replied with both surprise and joy that because of the teacher's relationship, he had met Macdonald a few times, and Mr. Aldridge introduced him casually, but he did not expect the old marshal to remember his appearance and name.

MacDonald smiled at him: "Thank you for welcoming me, son, take me to see your teacher."

Turning around, Kevin stretched out his hand and said, "This way please, Marshal MacDonald."

The botanical garden behind the Bachelor's Tower is one of the few quiet places in Gabela's Imperial Capital. It is lush and beautiful inside. People in the Bachelor's Tower often come to take a walk in it after intense research and study to cultivate their bodies and minds. But here is not only The resting place is also the place where the naturalists of the Bachelor's Tower do research. The plants inside are cultivated by these scholars themselves. They tirelessly collect exotic flowers and plants from all over the continent and transplant them into this botanical garden. As long as they can survive, It can become the object of observation and research for latecomers, and a large garden has been formed here over time.

Beside a small lake, there stood a small pavilion, inside which were two elderly bachelors who were having a great time fighting against a game of chess pieces.

"Haha, your king is going to die."

Aldrich's junior, Bachelor Yarvi, stared at his senior happily.

"Don't get complacent too early, you haven't seen that I'm keeping my back, and you'll cry later."

Maester Aldrich refused to admit defeat, but his hand stayed stiffly on the chessboard, and it took a long time to see which move his so-called second hand was about to make.

"You should go!"

Yarvi sarcastically sneered, his beard almost curled up with pride.

Just when there was a stalemate, Kevin's voice came from the path leading here, "Teachers, Marshal MacDonald has arrived."

The arrival of the students saved Bachelor Aldridge, who was about to die.

"Hey, it would be great if the Marshal came a few minutes later, so that I can see your cute expression like a defeated dog."

Aldridge exhaled heavily, with "regret" written all over his face. Then he stood up and made a gesture of welcoming the guests, obviously not going to continue the chess game.

But although it was to welcome MacDonald, he first looked gratefully at his dear student.

"Hmph!" Bachelor Yarvi rolled his eyes greatly, expressing contempt for his senior.

Immediately, he also stood up and welcomed the arrival of the old marshal together with his seniors.

"Oh, Macdonald, you've kept us waiting for quite a while."

There are no polite words, after all, they have known each other for decades, and now they are still loyal to the same emperor.

"Haha, sorry, I have some military affairs to deal with temporarily."

Macdonald smiled and apologized.

The three of them sat down in the gazebo, and Kevin started running errands, helped them remove the chessboard and chess pieces, and served boiled tea and several plates of fruit.

Aldridge told the students, "Kevin, the three of us are going to chat for a while, so I don't need you to do any work here."

Kevin knew that what they were going to talk about might not be suitable for him to listen to, so he saluted and left.

After the young man walked away, MacDonald put away his smile and said seriously: "You two bachelors, I know, you definitely didn't come to me for small talk today. I'm a warrior and I don't like to go around. Straight up."

Aldrich and Jarvi smiled at each other, and then Aldrich said: "Marshal, in the past, we did have some things that were inconvenient to say, but now, we can talk to you, after all, we are all Supporters of His Royal Highness Antonio."

MacDonald looked at him and nodded.

Yarvi continued the words of the senior, "Although you have just joined His Highness, we feel that you need to know the whole picture of things as soon as possible. There is a saying that if you want to complete a career with one person, then Just don't doubt him, we deeply agree with this sentence."

"So we have chosen this time and this place to have a heart-to-heart talk with you."

Hearing the words of the two respected bachelors, Macdonald's expression became more serious.

"You two, in fact, I also just want to ask, why the Bachelor's Tower, which has been adhering to political neutrality since its establishment and has never intervened in the struggle for the throne, will stand on His Highness Antonio's side with such fanfare this time."

"Oh, please take it easy."

Aldridge responded to him ~www.mtlnovel.com~ with a mysterious smile on his face.

"And then you'll get all the answers you want."

General Collins Simon Fedotov looked at the pass behind him with satisfaction. This was the last obstacle to Hydera, and after that it was a flat road.

He was standing on a small **** beside the main road, from which he could see the pass, and the soldiers of the skitarii were standing alone.

Then pass through the pass gate one by one.

His army seemed like a long serpent, passing through the small hole, and about to swallow the poor nest of little mice hiding in the hole.

After capturing this pass, Fedotov ordered the army to rest for two days in preparation for the next attack on the big city of Hydera.

A vanguard force of 3,000 people set off early to explore the road ahead and set up a camp near the city of Hydera.

Fedotov learned from the latest information that the troops of the Horn Bay Alliance have reached this time, and they are still struggling with whether to go east or north.

Fedotov almost laughed out loud at this.

Praise be to the Father in heaven, the great Lord of Light, whose apparitions punished those who betrayed their faith—with their heads broken.

Fedotov secretly vowed to uproot the heresies along the coast, and spread the seeds of righteous faith, so that this land can once again be bathed in the glory of the Heavenly Father.

"Okay!" He said to the subordinates beside him, "Let's go to catch up with the troops that set out earlier, and hope that when we see them, they can welcome us with the camp they have set up."

Fedotov twitched the horse's buttocks happily, and the mount ran south with all four hooves.
