Chapter 0535: Expedition

Eliot made this decision not because he had no brains, but because he was wise.

As the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Military Region, he knew very well in his heart that these guys with eyes above the top were time bombs.

If they are not allowed to vent their inner excitement, chaos may break out at any time, and the unlucky ones may be the entire Eastern Army.

With all this in mind, he made the decision to let the other party act alone.

In this way, it can not only allow the other party to go to the mine first, but also eliminate the hidden dangers in the army.

As it turned out, Count Eliot's decision was very wise, and not long after the departure of these low-eyed nobles with their own private army, they made a lot of jokes.

Because they did not carry enough food, the two teams of 1,000 men returned in disgrace after running hundreds of miles.

Getting lost was even more common, and a force of less than 600 men actually plunged directly into the alert range of the Central Army led by King Ferdinand, and was almost beheaded as an enemy.

You know, the two armies are two hundred kilometers apart from each other, and it's a miracle that the other side can run here safely.

There are even those who fell into blood mold, accidentally ran into a large group of demon troops, and were beaten by crying dad and mother, scattering and fleeing, that scene is unbearable to look at.

When Count Eliot led people to the rescue, he saw that the mountains were full of noble children dragging swords and crying indiscriminately.

Nearly 400 people were killed, more than 1,000 were injured, and dozens of people were missing.

After this terrible experience, these noble sons are finally honest, at least they will no longer shout nonsense about meritorious deeds and so on.

However, the ensuing problems were very troublesome for King Ferdinand, and several of the 400 killed were sons of nobles, or even descendants of certain families.

died so inexplicably, there must be an explanation, right?

If you want to give a pension, people don't need it.

Giving him a promotion, King Ferdinand felt panicked again.

These people did not make an inch, and they were defeated in the first battle, which severely damaged the spirit of the army, and they would have been put on the gallows in the past.

However, the expedition was Ferdinand's work after all

came out, people were kind enough to help you recruit the minister, and now that you accidentally died, you have to say something, right?

After much deliberation, Ferdinand decided to give a stick and then a sweet date, which he felt was the best way to deal with it in the current situation.

So he first issued a message to reprimand these undisciplined nobles, and just when he was about to send a second letter of condolence, the Eastern Military Region was completely confused.

The nobles don't care what meritorious service they make or not, and everyone goes out with the army without merit and hard work.

Now that people are dead, instead of being appeased, you still post a message to reprimand us, what is the reason?

As a result, the nobles who felt aggrieved were driven by people with good intentions to quit, and even a few people went home directly.

Now Ferdinand panicked, he suffered a big defeat before the main lord was confronted, and now people's hearts are fluctuating, isn't it clear that he wants to lose.

When he was anxious, he finally thought of Renard's hole card, and hurriedly sent a message for him to march quickly, and it was best to win a big battle to appease people.

After reading this letter, Lei Ye's complicated mood can be imagined.

If you are not afraid of god-like opponents, you are afraid of pig-like teammates.

Now that the eyebrows are burning, Ferdinand still has calculations about gains and losses, but he is just promising people empty titles, is it necessary for you to pick so much?

In other words, Renard himself, in such a tense moment, even if he promised a hereditary nobleman to others, he would never say anything.

After all, if he wins this battle, he will gain a hundred times more than he has paid.

Lei Ye couldn't help sighing, his brother-in-law is sometimes shrewd like a monkey, sometimes stupid and crazy, sometimes generous and outrageous, and sometimes stingy and makes people want to scratch the wall.

But you can't ignore it yet, that's where the biggest headache is for him.

Just as Renard was thinking about which lord to pick first, a sudden shout in the distance interrupted his thoughts.

Immediately after, several griffon knights fell from the sky.

Leading the way was Major Simon, who, by virtue of his diligence, had now finally become a mid-level officer.

However, he still served as an instructor, but he changed from a recruit instructor to a flight instructor.

Behind him were several

Most of the young griffin knights were selected from the grassroots.

Of course, there are also many meritorious sons of Nanhuang County, including Beecto's son and Simon's own son.

Although these young people's qualifications were not enough to allow them to serve in important positions in the aerial reconnaissance unit, in order to win people's hearts, Lei Ye still acquiesced to this matter.

He now finally understood why King Ferdinand had set up an air honor guard in addition to the Knights of the Sky.

Even if he hates these noble sons and daughters with low eyes, he has to give the meritorious people some face, otherwise who is willing to die for himself.

Fortunately, these young people are not all wine bags and rice bags, as the so-called tiger father has no dog, they have not been corrupted by the extravagant life for the time being, and they have a very strong enterprising spirit, and they are malleable talents.

Especially Lieutenant Colonel Beecher Ferguson, perhaps because of the blood of the Edgar family, he became a fighting warrior at a young age, and has good insight and courage.

He had repeatedly confronted the demon's air forces alone, and had personally slain more than sixty Winged Demons, showing impressive courage and strength.

Simon gave the other party a rather pertinent evaluation: much stronger than the gilded noble son.

This is already a very high evaluation, anyway, Lei Ye rarely hears any words of praise from Simon's poisonous mouth.

Watching a few people hurrying towards him, Renard had an inquiring look on his face, "What? Is something wrong?" Or did you cut off the heads of a few demons again?"

His words immediately drew laughter, which also caused several young knights behind Simon to blush.

Although the strength of these noble disciples is much stronger than that of other companions, they still inevitably have the problem of great joy, and often after killing a few demons, they will send people to the headquarters to ask for merit and reward.

You must know that the great thing about griffon knights is that they can control griffins, and griffins are terrifying creatures that can fight dragons.

As long as you can control the griffin, it is equivalent to having the strength of a high-level fighting martial artist, which shows that Ferguson's record also has a lot of water.

In order not to discourage the enthusiasm of the young people, Renard recognized their achievements and even personally wore the Medal of Honor, which symbolizes the combat heroes of the Sky Knights, for many people.

However, in order to prevent them from being arrogant, appropriate warnings and reminders are also necessary.
