Chapter 50: The Arrogant Chel
"What else can I do? Hurry up and roll up your belongings and flee to the royal capital! A richly dressed nobleman muttered. Marquis Rieser, be careful of your words, if you dare to leave the county of Kutus with your army now, I am sure that even if you can escape to the royal capital, you will be thrown into prison by Your Majesty. Chel said dissatisfied.
Reese muttered a few words and stopped saying that if the nobles refused to be called by the Provisional Decree of War, they would be divided by the severe punishment of cutting off their titles and confiscating their fiefs and imprisonment for life. In a war-torn place like the North, even the nobles would not dare to break the Provisional War Decree no matter how corrupt they were, and if a kingdom did not even have this binding force on the nobles, then it was not far from extinction.
"We're just mercenaries, and the Temporary War Decree has nothing to do with us," Stephen, the leader of the Lone Wolf Mercenary Regiment, began.
"Article 3 of the Provisional War Act stipulates that whoever is temporarily called up shall, from the date of conscription, be regarded as a member of the ordinary soldiers of the Kingdom and shall enjoy all the benefits and duties of a soldier of the Kingdom, including that those who flee shall be punished as deserters. Article 10 of the Provisional War Decree stipulates that all persons of the rank 1 and above who are members of St. Ulan's are subject to provisional conscription. Captain Stephen, do you have anything to say? ”
"I don't know any kingdom laws, and I don't understand a word of what you say." Although he said so, Stephen actually understood what Chel meant, and as a level 6 sword master, he was also within the scope of the kingdom's recruitment, and if he resisted, the consequences would be quite serious.
"We are just ordinary civilians, and the war has nothing to do with us." A representative of the militia group wearing a cloth shirt said dissatisfiedly.
"Article 11 of the Provisional War Decree stipulates that all militias receiving military training from the Kingdom shall be regarded as members of the ordinary soldiers of the Kingdom at the time of the conscription order." In order to complete this call-up, Chel can be said to have memorized the kingdom's temporary war decree by heart.
"Any questions?" Chell looked triumphantly at the dejected crowd below, and when he saw that no one was angry, he continued. Seeing that the Zhongzhong were still not angry, he continued: "Since there is no doubt, then I declare that the provisional conscription order of the Provisional War Decree has officially come into effect, and the battle arrangements will now begin. ”
"The noble army and noble servants will be uniformly assigned to the 1st Infantry Division, with the nobles as overseers. Academy students and Magicians above Level 1 are assigned to the Second Wizard Regiment, with the Head of the School and the teacher serving as Warlords. The mercenary group and the free mercenaries form the third assault division, with the mercenary group leader and a professional above level 7 as the overseer. The militia regiments formed the Fourth Support Division, with the leaders of the militia regiments as the supervising officers. Teachers and cadets of military schools held the positions of officers of each division. The Fifth Main Division was formed by the regular army and garrison, and I was the overseer. All five divisions formed the Provisional Corps of Kutus, with me as the commander. According to the Provisional War Decree, soldiers flee in wartime, the war supervisor has the right to execute on the battlefield, and the whole division breaks and beheads the war officer, do you still have any questions? ”
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, Chel made it so clear that they still had any doubts, but no matter how thoughtful Chel's assignment was, they didn't think they could defeat the so-called Zerg.
"There are nearly a hundred thousand Zerg attacking Guls City right now, but their large forces are still concentrated in Wardel City, which is an opportunity for us. We have 400,000 troops, as long as we surround and annihilate the main force of the Zerg under Guls City, we can save the kingdom, and we are the heroes of the kingdom......" Chel said excitedly.
"I said, Lord Governor, fighting a war is not a matter of arithmetic, and it is not something that we can win with a large number of people." A teacher at a military academy saw that Chel said that he was not looking for a margin, and hurriedly spoke up.
"Are you questioning my leadership? It took 500,000 troops for the Zerg to defeat the Praetorian Guard of the Kingdom, and with 400,000 troops in our hands, can't we defeat a mere 100,000 Zerg? Chel said dissatisfied.
The teacher of the military academy sweated and said, "Well, Lord Governor, we only have 50,000 regular troops and 60,000 garrisons, and the rest are rabble without military training. ”
"Do you dare to bewitch the army again, believe it or not, I will execute you now according to the Provisional War Decree?" Chel pulled out the noble rappier that had been used to decorate his waist and pointed it at the teacher.
"Well, Lord Governor, I wish you a victorious start!" The teacher said helplessly. This scene shook their heads in the eyes of everyone, Chell is obviously a person who is happy but incapable, and it is said that he and the queen have a leg to climb to the position of governor, and everyone used to think that this was just a gossip that did not look for bounds, but now it seems that it is really possible that things are true.
"The city of Gurles is less than a hundred and twenty miles away, and we can reach it in less than two hours on our accelerated march. All action! Chel said excitedly, as if he had defeated the Zerg.
Everyone, you look at me, I see you are helpless, Chel, as the governor of one side, has absolute rights in the Provisional War Decree, if they disobey Chel's orders, Chel will kill them, and there is no place to cry injustice.
In the royal city of St. Ulan, Victor was listening to his subordinates' reports with a gloomy face. "You mean that St. Ulan VI, the old thing, is ready to sacrifice me in order to make the Legion of the Holy Prayer Legion go south?"
The man kneeling below was the same court attendant who had eavesdropped on the king, and it was not for nothing that Victor had been able to figure out the heart of St. Ullan VI and confront Tiar for so many years, and after so many years of hard work, his power had already penetrated every corner of Gardel, even the royal palace.
"Old man, I have been working diligently for you for so many years to deal with the trivial affairs of the kingdom, but I didn't expect you to discard me when you said that you would discard me, since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust......" Victor said to himself.
"Father, let's just turn it over!" Victor's second son, George, has been by Victor's side as the next heir since Pol's death, but it is obviously still difficult to make George, a swinger, a serious minister of the kingdom at once.
"You idiot, what are we going to rebel against? How could I have such a stupid son as you! St. Ulan VI, that old man held the Janissaries of the royal capital tightly and didn't give anyone a chance at all, how did you rebel? Victor said angrily.
"So what do we do? Waiting to die? George said unconvinced.
"We can go to other powers, and with so many secrets in my hands, I believe that we will be welcomed there." Victor said.
