"That staff officer was sent to me by Speaker Fippert-Bob, and I usually don't refuse what he wants to do, and I don't have to be responsible for anything that happens. ”

Belen-Val chuckled under his breath, "I know you want to ask where that staff officer is... Now I really don't know, he disappeared on the day of the rebellion in Drake City, and I thought he was going back to Iruk City to avoid danger because of the chaos in the port. ”

"Now that this incident has happened, I haven't seen him come out to be responsible. Buck took a puff of cigarette into Belen-Val's face, "Look where you're now... You're being interrogated like a prisoner, and your so-called staff officer should be enjoying coffee in some fancy apartment in Elok City right now. ”

"You don't need to irritate me with such words. Belen-Val shook his head with a wry smile, "I really don't know where he is now, I can provide you with a magical photo of him, you go to Iruk City and check out Fippert-Bob may be able to find this person." ”

Buck smoked his cigar and thought seriously about Belen-Val's words, and then said, "If what you say is true, then you, the so-called Supreme Commander of the Port, are really like a girl in a tavern... It's just glamorous. He looked at Belén Val with a little pity in his eyes.

"Do you think the establishment of the Duchy of Suluk was really built by a group of merchants leading a group of workers?" Belém-Val said sarcastically, "They don't even know how to hold weapons... The establishment of the duchy was a freak created by the local nobles, merchants, large farmers, and local knights trading with each other, and I was just a small existence in their transactions... It's the ignorant civilians and not me, who take the Principality's authorities and government as a savior, but don't know it..."

"Ignorance is the happiest, at least the commoners of the principality once felt that their government was hope. Buck stared at Belén Val, "And you, all the time, can only live in despair. ”

"Ignorance is the most terrifying... They are like sheep on a farm, seemingly comfortable but they can be betrayed by their owners at any time!" Belen-Val immediately retorted, and it was clear from his expression that he was obsessed with the issue.

Buck listened to Belen-Val's quibble, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, but the ridicule on his face was even more obvious. At this moment, he saw in Belém-Val the same confusion he had used to feel when he was a pirate.

"Let's talk about your letter of order. Buck said.

"As for that letter, I've just said everything I know, as for who is connected with the Undead Legion... If I knew, I would have smashed their skulls to pieces!"

"Are you sure you don't want to add more?"

"I don't know anything else... If you could give me a day, maybe I could make up some stories for you. "Belén Val's whole person suddenly became very relaxed.

Buck was surprised by the change in Belen-Val, but he didn't show his surprise, but warned very seriously: "Do you know what kind of situation you just said will put you in?"

"Do you think that being a 'oath breaker' must be a cowardly, cowardly, despicable, and untrustworthy person like a drunkard in a tavern?" Belen-Val's eyes sparkled in the gloom, "Don't deny it, I see contempt and ridicule in your eyes... I want to ask you a question, why would you give up your freedom to join the Combined Fleet to pledge allegiance to Pedy Reagan?"

"Why do you think it's free to be a pirate?"

"Then why do you think that being a general of the empire is a little better than being a general of the principality?"

"But you have broken your oath!"

"Didn't you also turn your back on everything from your ancestors!"

The voices of the two people who were fighting each other were getting louder and louder, and the hot air blowing in from the vents made the torches in the cellar sway back and forth, making the faces of the two people flicker and flicker very strangely.

The argument between the two began abruptly and ended abruptly.

After venting the conversation, the cellar fell silent...

"Crack" Buck took a step back and looked at Belen-Val indifferently as the torch burst into flames, breaking the silence, "In the entire Eastern Continent, who else can compare to a word from His Majesty Pedi?"

Belén Val and Buck looked at each other and said calmly: "For Pedy Reagan, I am just a dispensable little person, and his royal power will not be used against a small person like me at all, but for some people in the principality, I am very dangerous, and their eyes are fixed on me and my family. ”

"You're really not going to say more?"

"I've said it, I've already said what I need to say, and the rest is up to you to find out for yourselves. ”

"I want you to tell the truth, and you should know that the fact that I can arrest you proves that both your Duchy Government and His Majesty the King have acquiesced in this matter. Buck took another cigar out of his leather bag and lit it, allowing the guard to hand it to Belén Val.

"Suck... Whew..."

Belén Val half-squinted and enjoyed the refreshing sensation of lung stimulation, raised his hand to look at the cigar in his hand and said, "There is such a wonderful thing that I am reluctant to be sent to the gallows so early... So, everything I just said is true and everything I know... Nothing more!"

"Boss, why is he bothering so much!" The sailor next to him was a little irritable at first because of the high temperature and sweat in the cellar.

Buck waved his hand and ignored his men's interference, "How do you want me to report to the upper levels that you colluded with the Undead Legion, or..."

"I await your decision. Belen-Val shook his head, "I repeat... I've already said what I need to say and what I can say, if you think I still have something to hide from you, you can use your means to try... I've heard about Major General Buck's deeds for a long time, and now I'm just in time to see your methods. ”

"I'm not going to torture you," Buck tossed half of his cigar into the damp mud and stomped on it with his foot.

"Take care of him, and meet all his requirements except that he can't leave here!"

After snuffing out the cigarette butt, Buck gave Belen-Val a serious look and immediately turned to leave. He knew that what Belén Val said was basically true, but he didn't finish it... At the same time, he also knew that no matter what kind of punishment he used, Belém-Val would not say more than half a word.

But this person can't just deal with it. Although His Majesty has given him full powers, Buck is not so stupid as to really make up his own mind about everything. The previous ones are pretty much the same.

The port city is also in control, and the citizens of the city have not stopped the werewolves when they are ousted from power because of the recent series of stupid actions of former government officials, but they are not kind to the werewolves, but the situation is relatively stable.

So the most important thing now is to report everything that Belen-Val has gotten out of his mouth.

The clever Buck prepared two copies of this information, one to Sir Bowenlet in the city of Arok, and the other to send back to the Kingdom Army.

...

Outside Iruk,

The war between the Undead Legion and the Coalition continues, and the original raid war has become the current war of attrition, and it is not known who is consuming whom!

The daily analysis reports of the staff officers of the staff office were piled up to use as desks, and Bowenwright couldn't see any answers after looking at them.

The southern battlefield and the northern battlefield of Tyre Town, which the coalition command had originally pinned its hopes on, could not be counted on at all in a short period of time. The staff officers of the General Staff Department and the generals of the command headquarters are all proposing to increase the number of troops in the Kingdom of Kruria and the Mage Tower.

However, neither the Kingdom of Kruria nor the Eternal Wing Mage Tower have given a clear reply to this proposal.

"We can't afford to be like this anymore!"

In the tactical conference room of the city tower before dawn, everyone was discussing today's tactical arrangements. The deputy commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, Tra Rensko, suddenly raised his voice and said: "It's been almost a month, and the intensity of our daily attacks has not decreased, but the undead army has not seen the slightest bit of baldness... If we continue to consume like this, we will be exhausted first..."

"That can't be said, in the past nearly a month of fighting, we have been fighting against the front of the undead army. Botlem, the director of the Mage Tower, always had a peaceful smile on his face, "And we didn't give it our all... Neither our Paladin Legion nor the Heavy Cavalry Corps have yet to join the battlefield, and the magic golems have only been deployed for less than ten bottles. ”

"What the hell are you waiting for?" Chadric Rensko, the Coalition Under-Chief of Staff, looked at Bowenley, "We've been fighting side by side for almost a month, so we can count on the robes... I'm not going to let him have all your plans, I just want to know when this war will be over!"

"I don't even dare to ride through the streets now, because I can't face the parents, wives and children of those soldiers who died in battle!" Chadric clenched his fists in his hands hidden under the conference table, "I just want to know how many more people we have to die, how much sacrifice do we have to pay, and you will be willing to really lend a hand!"

"If it weren't for our army, the city of Iruk would have been breached long ago... Are you saying these words now to shake the morale of the army?" Hades, the chief of staff of the command headquarters, said with a cold tone, "In the past nearly a month of fighting, our soldiers have also paid a heavy price, they could have enjoyed barbecue and wine in the Iruk grassland!"

"Without Iruk City, how can you enjoy barbecue and wine?"

"Are you deliberately stirring up trouble?"

"Shut up!" Tra Rensco stood up from her seat and pointed at Chadric and yelled, "You... Tell me, as a deputy general of staff and a senior commander of the coalition command, what should I do according to military law if I spread rumors to shake the morale of the army?"

"Summarily!"

"I'm talking about officers, and even high-ranking officers!"

"Deprive all official positions and hang them in public!"

"Now that you know, you still dare to break the discipline in front of me?"

"Marshal!"

"It's too much! it's too much!" Botlem, the director of the Mage Tower, immediately stood up, "General Tra, Vice Admiral Chadrik is just concerned about the situation of the battle, so you don't need to be hanged, right?"

"Twenty military sticks, transfer to the logistics department..."Bowenwright expressed his position at this time, his tone revealed irresistible harshness, and when everyone's eyes looked at him, he pointed at Hades, "You go and take ten military sticks and demote to the rank of deputy chief of staff!"

"This—" Hades was stunned for a moment, then bowed down to receive the order, and then walked briskly towards the door of the conference room without looking back.

Just as Hades turned to leave, Terra glared at Chadric and roared, "You also get out of here, do you want the guards to take you out?"

The dull sound of "kicking" footsteps made the atmosphere in the tactical conference room a little awkward, at least Tra Rensco.

"That's it for today's meeting. Bowenwright was not embarrassed, he took out the magic clock in his arms and looked around at the generals on the left and right, and said, "The undead army has been wreaking havoc under the city walls for a whole night, and it is time for them to understand that we are the masters of this land." ”

Officers at all levels stood up as soon as Bowenley said this, and began to receive the combat mission of their respective units for the day at the staff office, as is customary.

Bowenwright got up and walked to the map of the conference room, took the information that only he knew, and carefully compared the attack and defense status of the enemy and the enemy above. After beckoning the officers out of the room, Tra Rensco walked over to Bowenley's side, looked at the markers they had made on the map, and said:

"The navy has been stationed in the Grace Stone Quarry for half a month, and the surrounding undead have basically been cleared, and the corresponding guard tower defense battles have been established successively... Personally, I suggest whether or not to order the navy to advance to the east, to open access in the direction of the city and the port, so as to prepare for our frontal battlefield. ”

There was a clear tentative hint in his language.

"You mean—" Bowenwright turned to look at Tra Rensko, then at the staff officer next to him.

"You go out first. Bowenright instructed the staff officer who was cleaning up the conference room.

Tra Rensco turned his head to look at the departing staff officers, and when he confirmed that there were only two people in the war room, he said, "I have received information that His Majesty Pedi is gathering heavy troops in the town of Seka... If I'm not mistaken, you're planning to transport these soldiers by sea to the Yekjar military port, right?"

"That's right. Bowenwright did not hide it, for the matter would soon be communicated by formal order.

"I received a tip-off this morning that the Mage Tower has suppressed the undead legions in the Drake Forest, reopening the land route between the Mage Tower and the Yekjar Military Port... What I want to know is if the Mage Tower will continue to add troops to the battlefield led by Eluk?" Tra Rensco was humble.

"Why do you ask?"

"Don't get me wrong, what I'm saying now is just me. When Terra heard Bowenley's question, she understood that he was talking to him on behalf of the Duchy.
