Chapter 296: Recommended
Song Zheng originally wanted to recommend Alfred Abydis, but he also noticed the change in Kalia's expression and voice, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Princess Kalia, who has begun to get involved in government affairs, is no longer as innocent as before, and in fact, if she wants to manage a huge kingdom well, she is bound to change.
"The most suitable person to lead everyone against the undead is naturally His Highness Arthas, but now His Royal Highness the Prince is far away in Andorhar, so the royal capital is here...... The most suitable commander is Your Royal Highness the Princess. Song Zheng had to make some changes, otherwise he was afraid that it would further arouse Kalia's disgust.
"Me?" When Kalia listened to Song Zheng's suggestion, she immediately showed a look of surprise, and waved her hand again and again: "I can't do it, I have never participated in a battle, and I don't even know any combat skills, at most, I can only pray and heal the soldiers in the rear, how can I lead the army to fight?" ”
"Your Royal Highness the princess naturally does not need to go to the battlefield in person, as long as you can stand on the city wall, you can bring the greatest encouragement to all the soldiers, of course...... It would be better if His Majesty could lead the army himself. Song Zheng continued to compliment.
Hearing this, Kalia immediately shook her head and said, "This is not good, my father is not in good health now, and he must rest in bed. ”
"Then I can only ask Her Royal Highness the princess to personally take charge of the defense of the royal capital, and then appoint a few generals to be responsible for the defense of the royal capital, and Her Royal Highness the princess only needs to be in the center to manage and adjust."
"That's right...... This is feasible, I don't know if Baron Song Zheng has any suitable generals in your heart to recommend? After hesitating for a moment, Kalia nodded slightly, seemingly accepting Song Zheng's suggestion.
"I'm not familiar with the affairs of the military, but I went to the monasteries in the north to find a garrison there, only to come across an army of the undead to attack the monastery."
Kalia immediately looked surprised: "The monastery of the north? The garrison over there has already been transferred to the royal capital, and this order is the first order I signed, so I remember it very clearly. ”
"Yes, but I had just returned from Andorhar and didn't know that the garrison of the monastery had been transferred, so I went to the monastery first, only to see that the monastery was surrounded by an army of more than 100,000 undead." Song Zheng hurriedly said.
"An army of more than 100,000 undead? The man in the monastery...... How are they? Kalia's eyes immediately moistened.
Surrounded by more than 100,000 terrifying undead troops, the outcome is naturally conceivable, especially since the original garrison in the monastery has been transferred by her personally.
"There are only nearly a thousand old and weak people in the monastery, but they have always fought until the last moment with the help of the stubborn resistance of the monastery's fortifications, especially General Alfred Abydis, who led the remaining paladins to defend the church, at least tens of thousands of undead troops, they are almost the most heroic warriors I have ever seen." Song Zheng said with emotion.
"General Alfred Abydis...... He was indeed a great paladin, but alas...... If only I had brought him to the royal capital. Kalia sighed under her breath, as if she thought that Alfred Abydis and the others had been killed.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, General Alfred Abydis is currently in the royal capital, and when I arrived with the Warlock troops, they were all scarred, but fortunately, the demons summoned by the Warlocks temporarily blocked the undead, so that General Alfred Abydis rushed out with more than a hundred wounded soldiers and hundreds of civilians who had taken refuge in the monastery." Song Zheng hurriedly said.
"General Alfred Abydis is still alive? Thankfully, that's great! Kalia immediately looked surprised, and couldn't help but pray softly to the light.
"Well, I'd like to recommend this General Alfred Abydis, who is extremely heroic in fighting the undead, and he is strong enough to command some of the troops defending the city." Song Zheng said that he went around in such a big circle, and what he did was to be able to push Alfred Abidis up smoothly.
"General Alfred Abydis is indeed a good fit, is there any other candidate in the Baron's mind?" Kalia nodded slightly, looking like she had agreed.
"Other...... Does Her Royal Highness know about Phyllis Fao? Song Zheng said with some hesitation.
When Princess Kalia heard this, she immediately frowned and said in a low voice, "Phyllis Fao? Of course, I knew that I had met her when I was studying pastoral functions in the Church of Light, and she was the daughter of Archbishop Alonsos Fao, and she was extremely gifted, but ...... She later seems to have turned her back on the Light and was banished from the Church of Light, why did the Baron suddenly mention her? ”
"Phyllis Fao didn't really turn her back on the Light, but her philosophy was different from that of ordinary people, she just believed that light and darkness coexisted, so she later became a Shadow Priest and also became the leader of the Warlocks."
"Warlocks? That's the one the mages have been wanted all along! It is said that they have long since betrayed their souls to demons. Kalia's brow furrowed even tighter.
"Those warlocks did sign a contract with demons for the sake of power, but they still love Lordaeron and are willing to fight to defend Lordaeron, nearly a thousand warlocks have been following me to fight against the undead, and even attacked Stratholme with me without fear of life and death, and now they are still fighting the undead outside the city, they are definitely the warriors of Lordaeron."
"Oh...... I misunderstood them, and I would have rewarded them if I had the chance. Kalia nodded slightly.
"If Her Royal Highness is in trouble, she may wish to go to Phyllis Fao, she is very powerful, and she is also very wise, and she is also extremely loyal to Lordaeron, if Her Highness can summon her to some positions, it will be great, she will definitely be able to help Her Highness solve many problems." Song Zheng said with a smile.
"Really...... Since it was recommended by Baron Song Zheng, then I will ask people to look for her, but what kind of position do you think would be better for her? ”
"This ...... In fact, with her ability, it would be good to let her replace Garissus to be in charge of the defense of the royal capital, but with her character, I am afraid she will not agree, she is willing to be a consultant or something at most. ”
"Well, then I'll have her summoned to the palace at once."
