It's been the thirtieth day since the loss of Carrie's news, and both Avi and Fan have begun to get used to life in the Potato Mercenary Regiment, even forgetting that they were once members of the Two-Color Blade Mercenary Regiment.

In the past few days in the Holy Light City, Avi and Fan have been paying attention to the civil war between the Oguna Empire, and they will basically run to the place controlled by the church personnel to deliver the letters, wanting to know more about the Empire.

The latest news shows that the Western Oguna Empire has broken through the Split Mountains at some passes, and even captured some towns and castles in the east - of course, these castles are mainly surrendered to the city, according to intelligence, many of these lords are secretly in contact with the people in the west before St. Golia's announcement of the western separation from the Oguna Empire, claiming to be an empire, just waiting for the arrival of the Western Empire.

It is said that there is disharmony within the East Oguna Empire, and the prime minister Hollow is actively reconciling, but in the face of the pressure of the regent Xiumo's army, the East Oguna Empire has begun to be a little panicked - the original Oguna Empire general Xiumo was canonized as the regent by the minor emperor Manfret of the West Oguna Empire, and he is in charge of the supreme power of the country together with the Holy Daughter Golia. The little emperor was only six years old, and he was simply an immature child, which was also seen by other countries as a sign that power had clearly passed into the hands of ministers.

In the past, it was the saint who had the final say, and now the regent who appeared will immediately be on an equal footing with Golia, and it is estimated that Goliath had promised the other party when she persuaded Xiumo to rebel, and she would definitely let him control more power.

Regardless of the internal politics of the nascent Theoguna Empire, however, there was a stir of excitement throughout the Papal States. They have long been oppressed by the original Oguna Empire, and they have not let the pope and the archbishop suffer well in terms of economy, politics, and religion, and this is the best time to fight back.

The archbishop had signed an agreement with the other nations for a church union, targeting the Eastern Oguna Empire. Although there was still a war between the two countries, and the Duchy of Magini had always been friendly with the Empire of Augusta, both countries had made their position clear that they were willing to support the Church Knights of the Papal States - only spiritually, of course, but at most shouting slogans.

After Ah Wei and Fan learned about the situation on the mainland, they began to realize that the position they were in now had been involved in the civil war of the empire, especially the newly established potato mercenary group, which had been registered as the resident mercenary group of the Holy Light City, and if the church came forward to ask for it, their mercenary group might inevitably have to choose a side.

When they then returned to their rented house, the words of Deputy Head of Regiment Feder to all the members confirmed this idea.

"Satnam, the head of the Church Order in the Papal Territory, has asked the Knight Master to send us an invitation, and I would like to hear everyone's opinions. "Although the current Fide is said to be the deputy head of the regiment, Andrei's position as the head of the regiment is in name only, and no one knows how Andre is doing in the territory of the Rock Thieves Regiment, and whether it is possible to return, so Fide is actually his own leader, which is the consensus of Avi and Fan.

Keth was the first to speak, not taking a stand against the invitation of the Church Knights, but instead speaking about the recruitment of mercenaries. In just two days, thirty-five people have been recruited, mainly mercenaries from the Sword and Shield Squadron and the Axe Squadron, and in order to facilitate the concentration of his subordinates, Fei De also allocated some money to rent some mercenary dormitories for these mercenaries to live in, but other living expenses are the responsibility of each person.

It will take about a week to recruit all the target personnel, not including the final selection, ability assessment and combat training, according to the military superintendent Kosi. However, when recruiting mercenaries, those mercenaries are also scouting the potato mercenary group, so it will take some time to complete the planned goals.

Greif was amazed to see the Duke's only daughter become shrewd and capable. In just a few days, he watched Kesi go from ignorant to handy, does this girl really have the talent to manage logistics?

After learning about the internal situation of the mercenary group, the others listened to Fide explain the external situation of the Church Knights, the Pope, and the Eastern and Western Empires, and also made a brief analysis. The information that the deputy head said was similar to what Avi and Fan had gathered outside, probably because the Western Oguna Empire was moving eastward, and the Eastern Oguna Empire was in danger. The Papal States took advantage of the opportunity, from the Knights of the Church to the various resident mercenary groups, from the Pope to Archbishop Arthur Auerbach, all the powerful figures in the Papal States were eyeing the East Oguna Empire. It is likely that in the foreseeable future, the mission announcement of the House of Mercenaries will be withdrawn, and only the mission of gathering all the forces of the Papal States to attack the East Oguna Empire will remain.

Everyone expressed their opinions.

Several people who advocate neutrality, represented by Leonard and Big Nose Fan, believe that even if they join the so-called "church alliance", they will not earn more than if they accept mercenary tasks, and it is not good for a mercenary who has just been formed to take sides and regard a country's regular army as an opponent. They all felt that Fidel should wait and see what happened, and not easily agree to the regimental leader Satnam, or put forward some guarantees to the other party before considering joining.

The Marcus brothers, on the other hand, felt that this was an opportunity to quickly expand the appeal of the Potato Mercenary Group. Marcus knew that Keth and Feder weren't going well when recruiting mercenaries, which was actually the reason for the lack of appeal. Thinking about the original Moon Shield mercenary group, the mercenary group had just returned from Gansha City, and hundreds of people lined up every day to join. If you can rely on this war mobilization in the Papal States to get the opportunity to sit on an equal footing with other big mercenary groups, it is definitely an opportunity that cannot be missed.

Others, such as Patrick, were neither optimistic nor pessimistic, and although the Order of the Church had taken them to prison before, there were pros and cons to this incident, and both he and Noor expressed their support for Fid's decision.

Ayana was the only one who expressed absolute opposition.

"The Knights of the Church are nothing more than bandits in holy clothes, seemingly white and dirty," Ayana rarely spoke at length as she seemed to be less disgusted with some people after the mission of the Greenstem Plant, "I will not help the demons to attack the people of other countries." ”

Fidel knew that Ayana, who was only fourteen years old, had always been independent, a bit like himself at the beginning, but now he had to weigh everyone's opinions, this potato mercenary group was not his own, and he couldn't put the team in danger because of his own selfish desires and personal ideas.

"I have taken into account your opinions, and I have decided to personally communicate with the head of the Knights of the Church, Satnam," he said and glanced at Ayana here, and found that the other party was also looking at him, but the little girl's eyes immediately flashed, "Whether it is good or evil, whether joining the alliance is good or disadvantageous, I will personally confirm." ”
