Chapter 341: The Land of Talent

readx;

Fed rode on the horse Selena had chosen for herself, looking out at the western gate of Black Marsh. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info there is an endless stream of people coming out of Black Swamp City, these people are stained with white stone powder, and the people's team looks as if they have just crawled out of the ground.

Jasmine, who had never been to Black Swamp City, covered her mouth and nose stiffly, "It's so stinky, this capital should be called 'Stinky City', and there are even nobles who are willing to set their capital in such a stinky place, the citizens here must have wanted to escape from here for a long time!"

But the fact that the city, surrounded on three sides by marshland, has a natural barrier that makes it the capital of a nation because it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. "Selena had been here with her father, who was the chief knight of the Papal States when she was a child, and she didn't mind the stench of the swamp.

"Wouldn't it be very difficult for us to retake this city from the Winter Nation by then?"

"I suggest that they starve to death here," Jasmine pointed to the food convoy loaded with countless food reserves that had left with a large number of citizens, all of which were requested by the regular army, "The Winter Nation people will definitely not bring a lot of food here, as long as we recover the cities in the northern region by then, no matter how strong Black Swamp City is, it will not be able to stop the hunger from the stomach." ”

Fide and Vittorio had discussed the matter two days earlier, and Vittorio said at the time that it was too early to think about how to retake Black Swamp City, but the "only condition" of Duke Yannis was that Vittorio would never forget, so the capital of the Duchy surrounded by stinking swamps would eventually return to the hands of Duke Yanis and the Duchy of Magini.

Seventy percent of the citizens of Black Marsh chose to leave with the regular army of the principality, and Camphen transferred the hundreds of thousands of civilians to various cities of the southern aristocracy. At the same time, each household was given comforting money and food, so that they could leave their homes with peace of mind. The remaining people who were reluctant to leave Black Swamp City were also temporarily protected, and the protection was handed over to the mercenary Guardians, which was the responsibility that Fid was now fulfilling.

In addition to the living, the food, armaments, goods, and livestock in the city were all transferred by Count Camphen, and most of them were transferred to the base of the regular army in the southwest of Black Swamp City. At this time, the large forest to the west of Black Swamp City was passing through the vast forest, and the forest, which was originally a transportation hub, became more lively, like a large trading market built in the forest.

Ludwig gave the Duchy of Magini a week to hand over Black Marsh, and the Winter Nation would stop all attacks within that week, but Ludwig also made his position clear - if there was any attack by the Duchy of Magne, the agreement would be nullified immediately, and if the Kingdom of Cosey found any signs of default before taking full control of the Black Marsh, they would not rule out a preemptive strike.

"The palace will definitely not be transferred, and the same will be true of the Military Academy of the Peace Tomb, which occupies a large area," Luca saw that the ranks of the people began to shrink, and he walked towards the Black Swamp City, "We need to count it again before we can hand over this capital to Ludwig." ”

Fide and the rest of his men also walked in the direction of Black Swamp City, "Count Camhen has made it clear that the Military Academy of the Peace Grave cannot afford to lose anything, so I have sent a letter to Ludwig according to Vittorio's suggestion. ”

"What do you say to that new Black Swamp City Lord?"

Vittorio, riding a pony, replied in a low voice: "Let Ludwig vacate the Military Academy of the Peace Tomb in Black Swamp City, and leave it there for us to be a mercenary Guardian Regiment, so that we can station mercenaries at the Military Academy, and serve as a place of communication between the two alliances." ”

Patrick nodded and said, "That's a good idea, it's a win-win-win ”

Winoteki: "Didn't you say that this military academy was the intelligence center of the Principality?

"It must have been taken away, but no amount of intelligence can withstand an enemy with more troops," Jasmine said sarcastically, "Maybe the Peace Grave Military Academy is focused on the rebel organization, and it doesn't even think about the neighbors around them suddenly launching a joint invasion of the country." ”

"I wasn't allowed to step inside when I entered Black Swamp before, but this is a rare opportunity, and we have to see what's so special about it. It is a military academy on par with the Kestrel Academy of the Kingdom of Sarins, and outstanding military talents are bred by them. Luca looked excited, but everyone canceled him, because there was a cadet Vittorio who graduated from the Military Academy of the Peace Grave, but Luca never asked Vittorio about it. Fidel knew that this was because many of his subordinates had a grudge against Vittorio, and they might still care about Vittorio's identity, background, and past, and they still cared about Vittorio's own murder of his father. However, Fidel trusts Vittorio as much as he trusts the plan proposed by the other party, which is ultimately because of what he and the other party have experienced, and it has something to do with the matter between his father.

"I haven't been in that academy in years," Vittorio whispered as everyone teased Luca, "and it's more of a large general academy with all kinds of talents than a purely military academy." Feder agreed with the other man's words, because he had seen those strange buildings before, and if those cadets were concentrating on military affairs, how could they have time to build such buildings that had little practical meaning.

When Fide led two thousand men into Black Swamp, he suddenly remembered Mary and Lazrov. The two diehards of the rebel leader had already told them to rescue Leon, if Leon was still in prison in Black Swamp...

"Ayana, Noor, you two go and inquire if there are still prisoners in the prison here. ”

"No," Vittorio called out to Noor, who was about to leave, "I asked the Count of Camhen privately, he had transferred Lyon after the disappearance of the Duke of Yanis, and he didn't tell me where Lyon had gone now. If Mary and Lazrov do what I say, they should go to the territory of Count Kanhen based on the information I have told them, and maybe they will get something out there. ”

"Are you still in touch with your sister?"

"Yes, after all, she's my only relative now," Fidel noticed some sadness in Vittorio's eyes, "She's never done anything wrong, and she's got me out of Clermont's hands... Except that her IQ is not high. ”

"You once said that Levier is the real wise man, what will he plan to do now?"

"Since he is with Lutz, who was not burned, he must still be in control of the other rebels. I'm sure he'll be doing something soon, maybe today. ”

Vittorio's words made Fide suddenly feel a little stressed. Today is the day when the regular army of the Principality and its own mercenary group will hand over the capital of the Principality, and although an unscrupulous person like Lutz has suffered all kinds of blows, he is still alive, and at least he has the ability to kill dissidents at the meeting of the new faction of the rebel army, they must be planning something in secret. In Feide's eyes, the rebels were like inexhaustible weeds, their strength had been greatly reduced, and various factions had been devastated, but they had not been completely wiped out, and it was impossible for the Undefined Army to be completely wiped out.

With this in mind, Fielder decided to write to Count Camham about the possible resurgence of the rebel army, and told them to be on guard, otherwise their plans and those of the regular army might be uncertain.

"Ahead is the Peace Grave Military Academy. Vittorio pointed to the large group of buildings built in the innermost part of Black Swamp City, and sure enough, most of the buildings that were not hidden by the walls were strangely shaped. But there are also normal buildings, as if those who are good at architecture are putting their work at the forefront, wanting to show the people who come here that they are different from each other.

Fei De and his party could see that there were still many people and students in this area, and several of them who were holding books walked up to Fei De.

"Are you mercenaries?" asked a young man with rare square glasses, two women and a man behind him, both seemingly helpless scholars.

"Yes, I'm Fidd, the head of the Potato Mercenary Regiment. ”

The young man held his glasses in the palm of his hand, and was not afraid of the heavily armed mercenaries, "Hello, my name is Benjamin, I am nineteen years old this year, I am a cadet of the Military Academy of the Peaceful Grave, and I am also the chief representative of the cadet representatives. Behind me were my classmates, who were also student representatives, and I had the privilege of meeting with Head Fidel. With that, Benjamin stretched out a hand to Fidel, who was sitting on his horse, and then pressed the books that were about to fall to the ground with his other hand and his muscleless chest.

Fei De immediately dismounted, as did the rest of his men, "Hello, Benjamin, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”

Benjamin immediately withdrew his hand after shaking his hand, and once again held the book in his arms with both hands, "We don't plan to leave the Military Academy, and there are many students who think the same way as us, so will you also keep us safe?"

Most of the people behind Feder were uneducated, and in the face of Benjamin's polite inquiry, Selena took the initiative to step forward, "I am Selena, the cavalry squadron leader of the Potato Mercenary Regiment, and we plan to use the Peace Grave Military Academy as the base of the Mercenary Guardian Regiment, and protect the area of the academy and protect everyone living in it." Of course, Ludwig, the governor of the kingdom of Cose, is not a cruel man, and he will treat us and you reasonably. ”

"That's good," Benjamin reached out and shook Selena's hand again, "Most of the people who remain in the academy are cadets, and there are also some civilians who have been in contact with the academy, about five thousand people, I hope we won't be a burden to you." ”

Fidel suddenly remembered Toto, and he whispered to Vittorio, "Can these talents be used for themselves?"
