In the "infantry drill" that Gawain referred to next, he invested in his newly formed "Red Hand Greiner Detachment" - on the basis of the original 400 Armenian logisticians and 200 Paulicians, 600 men were recruited from the Sith County, Tarsus County and the Vanka City Border Fortress District, the number of personnel was the same as that of the Red Hand Cavalry, divided into two detachments, and the battle flag directly under the command of the Grand Patron.

The dedication of this large detachment brought the whole exercise to a climax: Patriarch Anselm, who was beside Gawain, was horrified to see that the Nationals had been able to skillfully line up to protect or control the five-shot guns to reach and shoot, and the lightly armed Red Hand Brigade cooperated with the large detachment of firethrowers to skillfully break through the walls of "Kayseri", and the terrifying deflagration and fire spewed everywhere, as if the devil had all slain out of the fire, and successfully occupied the whole city in the next hour, and raised the red hand banner in a cheer.

"Your Excellency, your consecration of weapons and troops may be one more thing in the future." Gawain hugged his chest and looked at the magnificent scene in front of him with great satisfaction.

"Yes, I will complete this sacred mission when our army goes out to fight against the highland infidels." Anselm also didn't have any reason to refuse.

At the end of the exercise, six soldiers of the brigade and three soldiers of the People's Army were unfortunately killed, which was the first time in such a military parade, which shows the authenticity of this grand parade. Gawain was satisfied, but also mourned the dead, and gave him money and the estate of his relatives according to the treatment of those killed on the battlefield. Then he summoned all the commanders of the infantry, cavalry, and pyrinomers, Dugelius, and said, "Now I will select ten honored soldiers from each detachment, all of whom are skilled, brave and experienced veterans, and I will pay them four times a month's salary, half of which will be placed in the Seleucian army, and the other half will be sent to the border army of Cappadocia for training, and I will teach the people and the border army the real skills of archery, crossbows, and spears—first train these two teams, In addition, Branas was also concocted in the Guardian Brigade, supervising the training of the civilian armies in Tarsus and Sith. The immediate siege of Kayseri Castle will be played by the Nationalist Army and the Frontier Army, for the number of Troika Brigades I can mobilize is limited. ”

After that, Gawain temporarily continued to lead the Red Hand Brigade in the area of Milio Sefalon to intimidate all sides. In all the exercises, he often did it himself, constantly inspiring the soldiers' spirit of hardship and hard work.

Soon he received a secret letter from Anna Tarsus, "The caravan and the Civilian Army detective riders have sent news one after another, that Raymond and Ademar have disembarked in the imperial port of Atalia, and that Raymond continues to hold the Sibe holy spear, and his attitude is very arrogant, claiming that he will go to the imperial capital to meet the emperor and obtain the command of the future pilgrims." ”

In the tent in the field, Gao Wen immediately wrote a reply, "If nothing else, the emperor will definitely grant all or part of Raymond's request." However, Guillaume, Duke of Aquitaine, and Conrad, the generalissimo of the German court, will be dissatisfied, and the whole group of pilgrims will be divided, and we will take the opportunity to carry out our strategic plan in advance—Anna, you will use our seals to issue an order for the army—Wright will send all the 700 civilians in Sithshire, and Andodat will garrison them in Vanka and Corquizon, and replace the Defender Brigade of Branas, and then Dorus. Lambert and Polibi. Bletchamios, with 300 Jinat cavalry, cooperated with this group of people to hold the Armenian 'armed regiment' and guard against a possible attack by the Armenian bandits and thieves in Marash, where the command was handed over to Dorus; At the same time, two generals, Monomachus and Orsen, each with 300 Genat cavalry, crossed the Cilician Gate to rendezvous with the armored cavalry regiment in the north, and the command was handed over to the commander of Walter, who assembled in the city of Caron.

When the time comes, I will attack Kayseri fiercely, and the Levant side shall not need to worry for the time being, for I am glad that the Gimagith Brigade has already taken a foothold.

Finally, I hope to take care of my health, and leave the chores to Androdat and Hertomia. ”

While Gawain was gearing up, at the inn in the port of Atalia, Archduke Brenus and his wife Dedot had come back from a visit to the ancient church in the city of Ladisia to meet with Lord Raymond, who had just come ashore.

The couple had planned to go to an old church in Laudisia to ask for an heir: there was an old tree, and it was said that if you put the branches cut down from it in a pile, cover your face and pull out a branch with green leaves, and beat them on the shoulders to conceive.

But along the way, Dedo never gave her husband a good look, and she was also in extreme contradictions and entanglements: on the one hand, when the fast horse first told her that Brenus was missing on the battlefield, she almost fainted and almost wanted to kill herself, and then the fast horse came to her again, and in a little less than a day, her father was happy to tell him that her husband had returned from Gawain's release intact; But on the other hand, after rejoicing, Dai Duo fell into a jealous frenzy again, why, why was her husband easily defeated by her sister's man? Could it be that Brenus is so weak?

To make her even more angry, Brenus also brought back the gift that Gawain had given her, an enamel box containing the image of the Virgin, which was said to have been ordered by Anna, as if she had seen her sister's mocking and sarcastic face, and touched her bulging belly with triumph.

"Here is my and Gawain's child, he (she) is destined to be strong, because it is me and Gawain's ...... Stupid and self-conscious sister. ”

Therefore, Dedo immediately made a request to go to Ladisia, and she kept losing her temper on the shoulder, but Brenus endured it one by one, and for the Temaci general, as long as she could keep Dedo calm and happy, everything was worth it.

Now the emperor's officials had sent this order on an improvised basis, and the couple had to turn back to the port city by the sea, where General Kosa was waiting.

When it was time for the meeting, Dedot, as a purple-clad princess who could participate in politics, sat behind the curtain and listened to a series of demands made by the one-eyed and arrogant Marquis de Provence on the other side to Brenus and Cosa:

First of all, among the 260,000 pilgrims, Conrad and Guillaume arrived at the imperial capital first, and I controlled them in a unified manner;

Secondly, I brought with me hundreds of Provençal sons in the hope that the emperor would solve my financial difficulties in raising my army;

Again, I hope that the Emperor will send an appropriate number of troops to assist me;

Again, when I have conquered Paphlagonia, please make me a courtier of the Empire forever, and build me a church dedicated to the Holy Spear.

Even Dai Duo couldn't listen to this shameless request, and she got up angrily and turned away.

Brenus also felt that it was wrong, and he said to Raymond, "I can help with the finances and auxiliary armies for the time being, but I will report the rest to His Majesty in the imperial capital." (To be continued.) )
