"Chapter 55: The New Governor"

Only when a man produces ** can a woman have reality and meaning.

– Otto Weininger (Austrian philosopher)

After subduing the four generals of the Wind Thieves Regiment, Bai Feng had no idea of fighting the Wind Legion again, and the Wind Legion had just formed an army, and it was not wise to continue to provoke them by needing the three generals Montgomery, Mountbatten, and Carswall to command them well.

It turned out that the secret letter of warning from Ames, the commander of the Hidden Guard, was not just a casual remark, and Bai Feng's application for a knighthood reward for a meritorious soldier submitted to Charlemagne did not have Charlemagne's permission.

If it was just an application that was not approved by Charlemagne, perhaps Bai Feng would still not fully trust the secret letter, but the second thing that followed was to make Bai Feng really correct that the content of the secret letter was definitely not fictional!

The former commander of the Fire Legion, Marquis Bernard, was secretly removed by Bai Feng during the breakout battle, and after all the four armies withdrew to the province of Nice, Charlemagne personally appointed Marquis Bernard, the brother of the Marquis of Bernard, as the new commander of the Fire Legion.

The reckless Marquis of Bedouin, during his tenure as the commander of the Fire Legion, almost led to a mutiny because he angered his soldiers, but fortunately, Bai Feng intervened 'in time' to successfully rescue the Marquis of Bedouin, who was almost killed by the angry soldiers.

After rescuing the Marquis of Bedouin from the encirclement of the rebels of the Fire Legion, Bai Feng first sent the frightened Marquis of Bedouin back to the Duke of Gna, and then single-handedly quelled the rebellion of the Fire Legion.

The commander of the Rodriguez Division and the commander of the Danilo Division, who made a big mistake, were all dismissed by Bai Feng, who was the commander of the Fourth Route Army, but in fact they were openly and secretly promoted to the acting commander of the Fire Legion and the acting deputy general of the Legion.

In this way, everyone understood that Bai Feng was deliberately shielding Rodriguez, Danilo and others, and the Marquis of Bedouin, who had recovered from the shock, had asked Bai Feng several times to arrest the rebel generals of the Fire Legion and hand them over to him for disposal.

The question is, does Bai Feng take the Marquis of Bedouin seriously? This marquis who has lost power, under the banner of the commander of the Fire Legion, can't even mobilize a soldier of the Fire Legion, and his clamor and threat are pure fart to Bai Feng!

In this way, the soldiers of the Fire Legion all regarded Bai Feng as the savior who saved them, especially Rodriguez and Danilo, who did not descend but ascended, understood their situation and secretly swore allegiance to Bai Feng, who protected them.

Bai Feng, who was in charge of the Fire Legion, ignored the Marquis of Bedouin, and Duke Gna, who was in charge of Bai Feng, avoided the Marquis of Bedouin, and the Marquis of Bedouin, who was completely ignored, returned to the imperial capital alone in a fit of anger.

After returning to the imperial capital, the Marquis of Bedouin wanted to complain to Charlemagne that the Duke of Gna was not strict and that the Marquis of Baifeng connived at the mob, but the result was that the crying Marquis of Bedouin was reprimanded by Charlemagne, and Duke Gna and Baifeng had nothing to do.

Charlemagne was not a stupid and incompetent fool emperor, he knew better than anyone else the details of the rebellion of the Legion of Fire, and in his opinion, everything that Bedouin suffered was his own doing!

However, the details of the riot reported by Ames to Charlemagne were cut, otherwise, it would be impossible for Bai Feng to sit idly by and contribute to the trouble.

After the Marquis of Bedouin cried to no avail, he had to go home and continue to live the life of the old clothes and angry horses by relying on his identity as a marquis, until Charlemagne had the intention of weakening the strength of the increasingly powerful Bai Feng, and the Marquis of Bedouin, who was not against Bai Feng, had a new chance.

Even if Charlemagne agreed to temporarily hand over the military and political power of the province to Bai Feng, it did not mean that Charlemagne would not interfere in the affairs of the province.

For the purpose of restraining Baifeng, the Marquis of Bedouin, who had a very poor relationship with Baifeng, was appointed by Charlemagne as the governor of the province of Brojansson, and the Marquis of Perpignan, who had lost power a few years ago, was appointed by Charlemagne as the governor of the province of Toulon.

Speaking of the Marquis of Perpignan, Bai Feng and his daughter once had an intersection, that was at the private banquet of the Prince of Pros, the daughter of the Marquis was deliberately ridiculed by Virgil, the son of the Marquis of Montauban, but she was afraid of the other party's family background and did not dare to refute.

In general, the Marquis de Bedouin, the incoming governor of the province of Brojançon, was an enemy with sharp contradictions with Bai Feng, and the Marquis of Perpignan, the governor of Toulon Province, was a stranger who had no contact with Bai Feng.

When Charlemagne's order to appoint two governors was sent to Bai Feng, Bai Feng knew that the contents of the warning letter were true, but Bai Feng didn't expect that Charlemagne would be so impatient, and the birds were not finished, so he wanted to hide the bow?

The newly formed urban defense forces of the two provinces are all in Bai Feng's hands; the military and political power of the two provinces are all Bai Feng's descendants, and the eight million people of the two provinces are even more grateful to Bai Feng.

Of course, Charlemagne did not do anything wrong, although he refused to confer the title of viscount and baron on the meritorious soldiers in Bai Feng's application, but agreed to confer the title of imperial earls on the thirty-six generals in the application.

Bai Feng, who knew it in his heart, sneered and handed over the thirty-six imperial earl knighthoods to the generals under his command at a military meeting attended by the generals of the whole army.

The generals who can serve as the commanders of the corps and divisions are not pure soldiers who do not understand politics, they understand what it means to accept Charlemagne's knighthood conferrals, and they also understand why Bai Feng took out these knighthood conferral letters openly.

In the final analysis, this is a choice that Charlemagne gave to the commanders of the various legions, and if any of the generals is willing to accept the title granted by Charlemagne, it means that he is not willing to follow Bai Feng down, but chooses to be loyal to the empire and the emperor.

The iron-blooded five tiger generals personally cultivated by Duke Rundstead did not have a good impression of the empire and the emperor, and they naturally would not accept the imperial earls granted by Charlemagne, not to mention the system generals such as Hans, Assasis, and Aetius.

Borg and others, who have been in the army for less than a year, have entered the army with Bai Feng and have served in the Seventh Wing, the predecessor of the Yulin Legion, so they are also known as the Six Heroes of Yulin;

No matter who is replaced by the commander of the army, it is impossible for them to maintain their current position because of their lack of qualifications and outstanding ability; they will either give up their position as division commander or follow Bai Feng to the end, how to choose?

Bartloli, Vermaelen and other generals who have surrendered are even more clear about their situation, in terms of background, they are not as good as Borg and others who came out of the Military Department of the Imperial Academy, not to mention that Bai Feng has the grace of reinvention for them!

In addition to the above-mentioned main generals, the rest of the generals are all able to choose their own paths, such as Bonella, McGovern and others, they were originally middle-level officers in the Imperial Army, and it may not be impossible for them to be reused when they return to the arms of the Imperial Military Department.

Soldiers die for their confidants, Bonella and the others may not be high-spirited saints, but they are also loyal and brave people with affection and righteousness; in the face of the olive branch thrown by Charlemagne, they just smiled contemptuously, and then chose to continue to follow Bai Feng, born and died for Bai Feng!
