After entering January, the units on the front line of the Southern Theater began to form teams to go deep behind enemy lines to open up new battlefields.

Although the depth of the area occupied by the fish-men is only a few tens of kilometers at most, it is enough to set up a battlefield in this era when transportation is not convenient and the army is small.

Before heading to Greentown to discuss with Queen Victoria about increasing investment in reconnaissance aircraft and communications equipment, Charles had been paying attention to the feedback on the battlefield.

Judging from the feedback so far, all the units of the elven army are doing well, and after a few battles, they began to feel their way, and the number of enemies destroyed per day fluctuated but began to increase steadily.

At this moment, Charles was relieved that sending a small force would not affect the defense on the defensive line. If the enemy wants to attack on a large scale, the General Staff has also formulated a series of countermeasures. That way he could go to Greentown with peace of mind, and Queen Victoria had already agreed to his application.

The day before departure, Henry led an elven officer into Charles's office.

The visitor smiled and saluted Charles, as if they had seen something very interesting.

Charles returned the salute and asked Horatio, "What are you doing here?"

Since the beginning of the war, Charles has often inquired about the four elves who were in the caravan together.

Now Horatio is stationed in a small town to the east, which can be called a town.

"If you're here to ask for new equipment, don't do it. Charles said, "George stayed with me for three days a while ago, and he didn't get the last thing back. ”

Just like Charles could ask for supplies with a little face, George, who was in the caravan at the beginning, ran from Wutong City to ask for equipment.

If it weren't for Charles's old feelings, George would have told Henry to throw George into the lake behind the headquarters when he asked him to allocate a few reconnaissance planes to Sycamore City.

Horatio took out a document and handed it to Charles, and said: "Of course, it would be best if Your Highness could give us ten and eight reconnaissance planes, but today I just asked Your Highness to approve this document." ”

Charles gave him a blank look when he took the document, "Familiar, if it's an unrealistic request, I won't approve it." ”

"Yo ho ......" Charles, who looked at the documents, was a little surprised, "You have to take a leave of absence for three months to go back to your hometown to get married." ”

By the standards of the elves now, Horatio was already an older unmarried young man, and George's daughters, who were about his age, were ninety years old.

According to the regulations of the elven army, Horatio's application to return to his hometown to marry is eligible, because of his position and the time of leave, he still needs to go through a procedure with Charles.

Horatio said with a spring breeze on his face: "My deputy commander over there has a good ability, I plan to add a burden to him, and go home by the way to tie the knot." ”

Then he continued: "Back then, I planned to get married first and then go to the battlefield, but because of the incident caused by His Highness's nose, I lost my vacation, so Your Highness, you can watch it." ”

Charles pursed his lips and said, "This pot is a little reluctant for me, I remember that you were just planning to propose." ”

Henry and Horatio are both descendants of Elizabeth, and the relationship between the two is good.

At this time, he said with a smile on the side: "At that time, Horatio's plan was to get married in two days after the marriage proposal was successful, and the marriage was done on the grounds that the army was preparing to be launched, and we all secretly prepared things for him without telling George. ”

Horatio deliberately put on a bitter gourd face and said, "Yes, it's all His Highness's fault." ”

"You see I'm not young anymore, and I'm not like Your Highness who can pick up a beautiful girl every time you go out. ”

"You picked up Miss Diana when you were in Avalon City at the beginning......"

Charles, who was holding a pen and preparing to sign Horatio's leave papers, took the cap of the pen and put the pen in the pen holder, and said, "Oh, I found that there are still a lot of things to do, which must be done before going to Greentown, and I have to go to the dragon after Greentown, which is too busy." ”

Then he looked at Horatio, "Why don't I sign for you when I come back?" ”

"Alas?!" Horatio, who was originally full of spring breeze, suddenly jumped up in shock, "Don't, Your Highness, it's just a matter of signing a word in the blink of an eye." ”

"I have an urgent trip to the General Staff. Charles was about to slip away.

"Don't!" Horatio was really anxious at this moment, although he thought Charles was joking with himself, but he didn't dare to bet, so he dodged and blocked the door of the office, "Your Highness, if you don't sign, I'll be finished." ”

As soon as Horatio finished speaking, he suddenly noticed that Charles and Henry were smiling maliciously at him.

Henry touched his chin and said thoughtfully, "You shouldn't have caused a human life, right?"

"Think about it, when was the last time you organized military families to go to the front line?"

The elven army has a tradition of regularly organizing military dependents to visit their families on the front line, which coincides with the time when the various departments are on vacation.

As a result, Henry calculated and said, "I haven't organized military families to visit your relatives recently?"

Charles said with a smile at this time: "Didn't we organize military families to visit relatives in Wutong City in August, didn't the commander sign and approve it on the day we tried the canned food?" ”

"That's right. It dawned on Henry that Horatio's girlfriend was none other than Peppa, George's sister stationed in Sycamore City.

At this time, Horatio could only say truthfully with a bitter face: "Page, she went to stay with me for a few days after visiting George......"

Henry looked at Horatio speechlessly, shook his head, and said, "You haven't eaten unicorn kidneys in those days, right?"

"Ahem...... Horatio coughed awkwardly, "Your Highness is still here, don't talk about this." ”

Henry ignored this, he said: "It's good that His Royal Highness Charles doesn't want to pursue this matter, if it's Her Royal Highness Elizabeth, it's strange that she doesn't clean you up." ”

Pregnancy out of wedlock doesn't have a good impact on conservative elven societies, especially if one party is a soldier and the other is a teacher.

There was a lot of criticism when Queen Victoria gave birth to Elizabeth out of wedlock, but not long after Queen Victoria rose to the throne, those noisy elves did not make much waves.

And Horatio is just an officer, and he is a front-line commander who killed his girlfriend while not visiting relatives, and it is reasonable for Charles to give him a punishment.

At this time, Charles sat down behind the desk, and said while signing Horatio's leave paperwork: "I just granted George a month's leave two days ago, and you have the ability to wait for him to come back before you go back." ”

Then Henry gloated, "I saw George get a good captive hammer." ”

The Captive Hammer is a specialty of the elves, it is the appearance of an ordinary war hammer, but the God of Life magic on it can ensure that the person who is hammered is only injured and not killed, and at most knocked unconscious, it is generally used to capture prisoners and deal with law and order cases.

Now Horatio's face became darker, and he couldn't run away after being beaten.

However, when he got the vacation and returned to his hometown to get married, Horatio was still very happy.

As he handed Horatio the leave paper, Charles asked, "Are you going to leave now, or are you going to take the train back with us tomorrow?"

Seeing that there was a special train to rub, Horatio naturally would not let it go.
