Chapter 456: The War Begins
Cecil was very happy to see that Ryker trusted him, but Rickel was an assassin after all, and he was not very good at training knights and warriors, so he still wanted Crane to help with the training. But seeing Recker's ardent hope, Cecil fell into deep thought again, and he really didn't want to dampen the young man's enthusiasm.
Requel could also see Cecil's hesitation, and he knew what the count was worried about. Then he said: "Please rest assured, Lord Earl, I have been carrying the Knights of the Oracle for the past few months, and I already know the training methods of knights, and even the high priest of the Temple of Dawn said that he could let me become a paladin of the Temple of Dawn."
Changing careers? Cecil was taken aback when he heard this, the transfer of jobs in the Lovalan continent is not as simple as changing careers, the so-called professions are actually the power given by various gods, that is to say, each of your professions represents a kind of divine power, and changing careers is actually changing beliefs. If Rykel were to become a paladin, the Assassin God would take back all of his powers, including all of his rank and growth, and he would be a level 1 newcomer entirely. It's acceptable if it's a player, but in this kind of real world, it's undoubtedly the same as killing him, Cecil looked at Rekel, full of worry and puzzlement.
Rakel smiled mysteriously at Cecil: "Lord Lord, I'm afraid that he will know when the time comes, and he shouldn't disappoint your old man, and said that he made a very mysterious smile to himself, Cecil was a little confused by this mysterious smile, but Rackel's confident appearance still made Cecil have a very stable feeling, Cecil said with a smile: "Since you say so, I will believe you, I will teach you Kratos's method of training soldiers in wartime, Then you pass it on to the soldiers of the Oracle Knights, this knight is the capital of our beginnings, and we must train it well. ”
When Ryker saw Cecil so solemnly entrusting himself to do this, he instantly became extremely solemn: "Don't worry, my lord, I will use my life to teach them, and the Oracle Knights will definitely become the first knight order in the Lovaland Continent!" ”
Cecil only smiled at Rekel's words, although he knew how far he was from the Griffon Legion of the Illuk Empire, but he still admired Rekel's ambition. With that, Reckel took his leave and left the place, returning for a meeting, and it was only now that Cecil had rested.
But the next few days were busy. Cecil was busy scheduling everything, Ryker was mobilizing the entire Knights of the Oracle, and even the Grand Knight of Bartlet began to reassemble the Blood Eagle Knights and began to transport troops to the border city. And Avella, a woman with a careful heart, is even busier, mobilizing grain and grass and mobilizing the people to come out to do the front, the entire Samara province is in a very busy state, fortunately, the people under Cecil are very stable, and the population is constantly increasing, and the mobilization of so many people in front of the branch has no impact on the people of the entire province.
Then there are the logistics items that Corion is responsible for, food is one thing, and the various equipment and drugs of logistics and weapons and magic props are the key to winning the war, and these key props are in the custody of Corion, a veteran, and he will also help Rykel with the training of the Oracle Knights. It's also very busy.
When Cecil entered the border city three days later, the two knights were all stationed in the border city, and the border guards of the Erruk Empire on the opposite side were shocked when they saw that only a small number of soldiers were usually arranged in the border gates of the two sides, and they were frightened and hurriedly reported to the upper peak about the anomaly on the border line. How do you know that their upper echelons are also the second monk who is confused, and he has received layers of reports that this matter has been passed to the hands of Emperor Roland, and Emperor Roland found the envoy of the Sololand Kingdom to ask about this matter, and the envoy himself did not know about this matter, and seemed at a loss. Emperor Roland could only send a letter to Emperor Rex diplomatically, asking him to explain why he had concentrated his forces in this border area.
As a result, the letter was withdrawn without being sent, because on the day of the report, King Rex was harboring Duke Lucas, the most wanted criminal of the Saurolan Kingdom, on the day of the report, so the Sauroran Empire wanted to declare war on the Eloke Empire, and 9 knights were deployed on the border for a while. A sharpening posture prepares to attack the Iruk Empire.
In fact, Cecil knew that King Rex himself had some unique opinions about this war, and it was obvious that King Rex had no intention of going to war directly with the Illuk Empire. Although a large number of troops were stationed on the border, and although King Rex was very loud, Cecil could still see at a glance that King Rex did not really want to fight the Arrow Empire. Because he never allowed his troops to step beyond his borders after the war, it was clear that he did not have much confidence in fighting on the outside far from his own territory.
But this declaration of war still shocked the entire continent, the human kingdom has not been at war with each other for hundreds of years, King Rex's move is really a stone to stir up a thousand waves, and soon Cecil saw that there were no less than five or six knights of various numbers on the opposite side of his border, and at the same time, there was an uproar in the kingdom of Sololand, and some nobles and acting officials who had not heard of this matter before asked King Rex about this matter, who knew that King Rex was very tough this time, Directly began to block the remaining deputies, and even the nobles who had supported Prince Lucas in the past began to raise their butcher's knives, and in the name of the assets needed for the army to fight, they all the property of these opposition factions was enriched into the treasury that they could control.
King Rex had the support of the public at this point, but he encountered almost a lot of resistance from the top, and the lords and adjugates felt a little unbelievable that Cecil dared to challenge the Elok Empire. Whether King Rex is conscripting troops or food, it cannot be achieved without the cooperation of these upper-class nobles, these nobles are in disobedience, and the risk of attacking the Elok Empire is too great, so everyone must be very cautious and restrained.
