Chapter 25: Conspiracy
Why do many regime changes since ancient times always have to be established in ruins, because war destroys not only civilization, but also the one-time washing of the decaying superstructure.
βThe Autobiography of Terry, Vol. 24
After the two teams met, they got a temporary rest, and the soldiers gradually relaxed their tension in addition to the daily routine training and patrols.
The lack of supplies was the biggest difficulty that this team was facing now, and although there was no enemy harassment at this time, it was indeed difficult to obtain sufficient supplies in the vast plateau.
After encouraging the coolies to join the force, the number of the team was larger, and the food and grass stored in the fortress could no longer meet the needs of the team, so Major General Oplar decided to send a detachment to the nearby city-state to buy food.
Soon, a team of food buyers was sent out, led by Sean, who had now been promoted to lieutenant.
Terry was retained by Major General Oprah, which is also what Sean meant, they wanted Terry to use the time when the troops were resting to learn the ability to lead troops, because of his previous merits, Terry had taken over Sean's original position and became a second lieutenant in the rebel army.
Major General Oprah values Terry very much, not only because Terry once saved him, but because he thinks that this amazing boy is a talent that can be created, and is ready to use this time to train him to be a good officer.
And this kind of learning is also what Terry urgently needs now, although he has a system, but an excellent officer, what he needs more is to strengthen his soft power, and Major General Oprah is an excellent textbook alive, after all, Major General is not like those aristocratic officers, he has relied on his own ability to become a general step by step from the grassroots level.
As the days passed, Terry, who had been by Major General Oprah's side, was like a fish in water, and Major General's rich life experience made Terry's knowledge continue to grow.
The Major General did not hide anything from Terry, from how to arrange the troops and how to communicate with the soldiers, and the Major General used his spare time to teach him very carefully.
The Major General looked at Terry's other eyes, and most of the officers and soldiers in the unit were happy for Terry, because they had already learned about Terry's achievements from Shawn's team, and knew that everyone could gain a foothold on this plateau, and Terry contributed a lot.
This is the case in the army, especially a team with noble ideas, and most of the ideas of the grassroots soldiers are very pure.
The army is like this, but it does not mean that the entire temporary base is like this, on the contrary, a large part of the nobles look at Terry with much more complicated eyes.
They were dismissive of Terry's credit, because in the eyes of these people, it was all taken for granted.
In their eyes, the interests are more important than everything else, especially the wealth of the rich countries under this fortress, which makes them never forget.
It's a pity that because this kid named Terry once had a "greedy rumor" about Major General Oprah, Major General has never agreed to develop that vein.
There was nothing the nobles could do about Admiral Oplar, because most of the soldiers in this team were loyal to the major general.
But Terry is different, he is just a small ensign, and he is still a commoner, so these nobles, every time they look at the little ensign next to the major general, their eyes are always full of resentment and hatred!
is not hated, he is a mediocre talent, and in the face of the resentful eyes of those nobles, Terry doesn't care, and he doesn't have the leisure to pay attention to it.
Because Terry is very busy now, although his physique and mind have been systematically transformed, but after all, his cultural level is very low, and a lot of the knowledge instilled in him by the major general is difficult for him to understand, although as long as there is something he doesn't understand, Major General Oprah will be very patient to help him explain, but to digest so much knowledge, he also needs to redouble his efforts.
As time passed, more and more teams were sent out to find supplies, and fewer and fewer soldiers remained in Mingguang Castle, which gave someone a chance to "take advantage of it".
Finally, on a moonless night, a thin figure, taking advantage of the change of shifts of the patrolling soldiers, slipped out of the fortress through a secret passage in the back wall of the fortress, and soon burrowed into the dense forest, and disappeared.
This person is the second master who has won the trust of those nobles, because of those bank cashiers' notes, this second master survived, and because of those night pearls underground, those nobles value this second master very much, under his rhetoric, the nobles and the second master mingled, and even colluded together.
Half an hour later, in the dense forest behind the fortress, several strange whistles sounded, and a small eagle flew down from a huge tree.
It was very dark in the dense forest at night, and it was not clear to see the color of the eagle's fur, but the round eyes revealed a miserable green light, which proved that the eagle could see in the dark.
"La Calaves (Flying Javelin), take this letter to the old place."
The second master, who was on fire, took out a small sheepskin scroll from his arms. After explaining to the eagle, he carefully tied the sheepskin scroll firmly to the eagle's claws.
"Yo!"
This eagle is very spiritual, and can understand people's words, when the second master finished explaining, the little eagle nodded very humanely, and then opened its curved and sharp beak and chirped at the second master, and then spread its wings and flew into the dark night sky.
Looking at the direction in which the eagle flew, although it was dark, the corners of the second master's mouth hooked up a strange sneer, extinguished the fire fold in his hand, and returned the way he came.
In the north of the empire, the city of Millavis, this is the capital of the empire, the political center of the Blue Banner Empire, and the gathering place of the northern aristocracy.
A golden letter eagle flapped its wings and circled over the multimillion-dollar city for several weeks before swooping down on a mansion compound to the east of the city.
In the study of this mansion, a gorgeously dressed silver-haired old man is struggling to write, but his old face is full of red, although the bags under his eyes are a little puffy, but the eyes are still bright, but there is a hint of obscurity in his bright eyes.
"Master, master, there is an urgent letter from the Yiyu Plateau!"
At this moment, the butler's voice came from the door, and when the old man heard the content clearly, he frowned, quickly put down the quill in his hand, and opened his mouth to let the butler in.
"I see, these rebels really don't know whether they are alive or dead, but they just happened to be wiped out. But I don't know if the guy who attacked Little Becky is in this rebel army. β
When the silver-haired old man finished reading the contents of the sheepskin scroll in his hand, his frown unfolded, and a chilling light burst out of his eyes.
"The butler will prepare the carriage immediately, and I will go to the palace."
Throw the sheepskin scroll in his hand into the fireplace next to him, although it is only August of the empire, but the capital of the empire is in the far north, the temperature is already very low at this time, and the fireplace is burning at this moment, and the raging flames immediately burned the sheepskin scroll to ashes!
