The Dan Moore Military Harbor military conference room, at the top of the port command building, Pedi and his new team walked from Bezer's dormitory to the conference room in less than twenty minutes.

This meeting room is large enough to accommodate nearly 100 people.

At this moment, there were only two people in this large conference room, Pedi and Lieutenant Colonel Theop.

Pedi deliberately chose the location of the conversation here, because there are not many places in the Danmore military port that can provide relatively quiet conversations other than the meeting room, and even the fleet commander's office is not necessarily quiet here.

Lieutenant Commander Theop was a typical military man, born into a naval family in the Baran Township area, and was the commander of the first detachment of the 5th Mixed Fleet before the Battle of the Dipu Islands, and he was a relatively reserved middle-aged man.

Pedi was not interested in the boring report at all, so Lieutenant Colonel Theop's report on the Fifth Mixed Fleet had just begun when Pedi interrupted, "Lieutenant Colonel, regarding the situation of the Fifth Mixed Fleet, my Chief of Military Intelligence reports to me every day, and he reports in more detail than you, so let's talk about something meaningful." ”

Lieutenant Colonel Theop's face was a little embarrassed, and he didn't know how to answer, but fortunately, Pedi quickly continued: "Lieutenant Colonel, if you, as the commander of the Fifth Mixed Fleet, do you have any good advice in the next war?"

Lieutenant Colonel Theop was stunned, there was no trace of joy on his face, but a trace of solemnity appeared, and after thinking for a few seconds, he said: "If you are asking me, then my plan is very simple... Find the main force of the goblin fleet, fight them and inflict heavy damage on them. ”

"That's it?"

Lieutenant Colonel Theop nodded and said: "Yes, that's it, there is no special method of warfare in naval warfare, and the most critical point of victory and defeat in a naval battle depends on the training of soldiers and the cooperation between warships... Of course, if you can know the movement of the enemy fleet in advance and set up an ambush circle, then the chance of victory will be a little greater. ”

After hearing this, Pei Di nodded thoughtfully, then stood up and walked slowly to the bottom of the map of the northern sea area of the empire hanging on the wall in front of the conference room, looked up at the map and asked, "So, Lieutenant Colonel, tell me, do you think you are qualified for the position of commander of the fifth mixed fleet now?"

Lieutenant Colonel Theop, who was following behind Pedi, was silent for nearly a minute after hearing Pedi's words, and finally he took a deep breath and said, "It's my honor, my lord. ”

Just as Pedi turned to look at Theop, Lieutenant Colonel added, "But I think Buck is more suitable to be the commander of the Fifth Mixed Fleet, because he now provides two-thirds of the ships in the fleet, and half of the navy men are willing to obey his command." ”

"Oh?" Pedy showed a hint of surprise on his face, and he subconsciously said, "In other words, half of the officers and men of the Fifth Fleet were recruited by pirates?"

However, Pedi only frowned, he was not angry at Theop's provocation, but thought it was a little interesting.

"Yes, but these people are no longer pirates, they are now the Empire's navy, my lord. Lieutenant Colonel Theop lowered his eyelids and didn't look at Pedi's expression, "Although these soldiers are sometimes a little troublesome, they are not bad, especially in broadside combat, and they can be compared to veterans who have been in the army for more than five years. ”

Pedi nodded as he listened, and he put a question mark on his mother's suggestion that Buck be the commander of the Fifth Fleet.

Now more than half of the power of the Fifth Mixed Fleet is in the hands of Buck, and if he is allowed to take the position of Supreme Commander again, God knows what will happen.

And, promoting a pirate to be the commander of a fleet, what would the nobles of Crewe Lords think?

Put a pirate on their footing?

Oh, is this a joke? Terrible jealousy can even make some nobles want to rebel, as countless examples in history can demonstrate.

Before the rest of the previous evening, Pedy had asked his new Captain of the Guard, Sir Banger Pombo, what the nobles would think if Buck were made commander of the Fifth Mixed Fleet.

The answer of the heir of the Pombo family is that they will be crazy with jealousy, at least I am already jealous of him, my lord!

After a brief moment of thought, Pedi paid attention as he looked at Lieutenant Commander Theop, "From now on, you can officially declare that you are the Colonel Commander of the Fifth Mixed Fleet. Pedi patted Theop on the shoulder, "Congratulations, Colonel, I look forward to your performance in the next war." ”

"Your Excellency—" The joy on Theop's face only flashed, and soon a worried look was on his face, "Lieutenant Colonel Buck and his men don't care about the laws and regulations of the Empire. ”

"But they will care about their future. "At two o'clock in the afternoon, I'll announce your appointment in this room, and Buck and his men will be there... I thought, you know how to do it, right?"

Lieutenant Colonel Theop immediately lowered his head, "I'll take care of it, my lord." ”

Pedi patted him on the shoulder again, "Your father and your children will be proud of you. With that, Pedi turned and left.

Outside the meeting room,

Pety's Captain Sir Banger Pombo, Wizard Collier and Hades stood silently, and when Peddy stepped out, Wizard Collier stepped forward as fast as he could, and said, "Good morning, my lord." ”

"Yes. Pedy's gaze skimmed over the three of them, and finally stopped at Collier, "There's something you need to do..."

"You just command. ”

"You go now to Baron Tosik, the prefect of the city guards in Seka Town—" Pedi's voice grew quieter and quieter, and eventually, only Collier could be heard.

A few seconds later, Pedi finished explaining,

Collier was stunned for a moment, then bowed and saluted, "Your will, my lord." With that, he quickly left.

...

The meeting room of Dan Moore Military Harbor is a separate building to the left of the headquarters.

It was the only building in the entire harbor that looked luxurious, and Pedy's guest, Hanina's emissary, was in one of the best rooms in the building.

He'd been waiting for Pedi for a full hour.

But a good education kept him from getting angry for an hour, and he even had a heartfelt smile when Pedi arrived in the room with his guards and retinue.

"Sorry, Your Excellency, there are some delays, but you should have made an appointment in advance. There was not a hint of apology on Pedy's face, and when he entered, he walked straight to his master's seat, and then he said bluntly, "Well, my friend, Baron Hannina, must have brought me some good news, isn't it? ”

"Dear Baron Pedy, are you asking me to say it here?" Paladin's etiquette was very standard, he was dressed in inferior leather armor that only mercenaries would wear, and his short brown hair had obvious stains, and his gaze swept towards Sir Banger and Hades as he spoke.

Sir Beng and Hades' faces suddenly became a little ugly, but instead of being angry, they looked at Pedi and waited for his decision.

Pedi smiled and said, "If your information is accurate, you should know that the two of them can be trusted. ”

"Of course," the paladin said humblely, "the Pombo family's loyalty to the Reagan family is known throughout the Empire, and Sergeant Hades... He simply did not touch the power of the whole affair. ”

Sir Banger's face became slightly better when he heard this, but Hades's face became even more ugly.

Pedi laughed, "Didn't anyone tell you that straightforwardness isn't a virtue?"

"It's the first time I've heard anything like that. The paladin had a serious expression.

"What's your name?" Pedi wasn't going to pursue the matter.

"Don Les-Dick, a small village in the northern realm of Crewe. The paladin introduced himself: "My mentor, Baron Hanina, told me that the idea of 'radiant power' needs to be verified, and that's what I'm here for, I..."

"I'm not interested in your ideas at all," Pedi interrupted, "I need to know the details of the Orc Expeditionary Coalition's deployments, the movements of the goblin fleet, and the status of our Seventh Mixed Legion. ”

Don Les nodded and said: "The Seventh Mixed Legion will not have a problem for the time being, their commander Sir Fred is very smart, he let his troops disperse into a primeval forest in the eastern part of the Ben Territory region, the orcs can only block their area of activity, and cannot eliminate them all at once,

Regarding the deployment of the Orc Expeditionary Coalition and the movement of the goblin fleet, I need time..."

When he said this, Tang Les suddenly showed a serious expression, he looked at Pei Di and said, "My mentor asked me to follow you during your battle with the orcs, and he told me that you can guide me in the cultivation of holy power, although I respect my mentor, I still doubt it. ”

"Watch your words, paladin. Sir Banger couldn't help but speak.

Pedi asked indifferently, "What are you suspicious of?" ”

"I don't mean to offend you, but you're too young for me to imagine how you'll teach my holy power practice. Don Les whispered.

"I don't want to teach anyone about the practice of the Divine Force, because everyone has a different understanding of the Divine Force, and I can't change their minds. Pei Di reached out with his right hand, and a substantial holy power began to slowly surround Tang Laisi's whole body under his control, but in the blink of an eye, this holy power disappeared.

"What was that just now?" Tang Wright's face changed, and at that moment just now, he found that the surrounding space could be pitifully small in the amount of holy power that could be mobilized by him.

"Nothing, I just want to say that your self-esteem and faith don't matter to me. Pedi shrugged indifferently, "I'm only interested in the information you've provided. ”
