Chapter 117: Resignation of Departure
The truckload of grain was delivered to the grain storage warehouse, and the first mission of the potato mercenary group was successfully completed, and then Fed and the leaders of the other two mercenary groups were received by Satnam.
In the council chamber of the Land of Amy Amy, the head of the Knights of the Church, Satnam, was discussing issues with a man in plate armor, and the two of them were discussing it very loudly, as if they were arguing.
"No, we don't have much food, and we can't send this grain to Doret City. As Feyder walked into the chamber, Satnam had already waved twice at the man in front of him, apparently resolute in his refusal.
"I gave you the task of guarding the grain depot at the beginning, but what happened?" the man had thinning hair, a high hairline, and a lot of untrimmed beard slag on his face, "Now that there are more and more refugees in the capital, do you really think that Golia can spell and conjure food?
"Isn't there any other way for the Lord Regent Shumo and the Holy Maiden Golia?" Satnam felt a soften when he heard that the civilians were going to be forced to eat the corpses.
"Yes, they have already sent the little emperor Manfret out of Doret City," the man suddenly showed a hint of secret and strange eyes, "Captain Satnam, do you know where the little emperor was sent?
Sathenam shook his head, he knew that the emperor of the Eastern Oguna Empire, Electrochrom IV, had ordered that as long as his youngest son Manfret was brought back to the capital city of Grinko, he would guarantee that the person who rescued the little prince would be able to gain glory and wealth, and be promoted to a knighthood! How to die, but he is also the core figure of the Western Empire, without him, Xiumo and Goliath are just rebellious traitors at best.
At this time, the man had already noticed the three regiment commanders led by Fei De and Rassad, and he adjusted his sitting posture slightly, "Who are these?"
Satnam turned his head and saw Fed: "These are the leaders of the mercenary group specially sent by the archbishop to support our army, and they should also be the heads responsible for transporting food to the front. Fetter noticed that Satnam was showing a hint of unhappiness, presumably because he saw himself.
"I'm General Derek of the Theoguna Empire, and I'm mainly responsible for monitoring the area around Doret City, as well as some logistics. The man stood up and said to Fidel.
Satnam also briefly introduced Fidel and the three of them to Derek, but Fidel could see from Derek's eyes that the other party was also the kind of guy who was very disdainful of mercenaries, and it seemed that the Theoguna Empire did not have a mercenary group to rely on, but only relied on its own regular army to support the battle situation.
"Since you are mercenaries, you must know which mercenary groups are assisting the East Oguna Empire, right?!" General Derek asked directly, pointing directly at Fidel's nose.
The two mercenary group leaders behind Fei De all looked at each other, there were not 10,000 mercenary groups in the entire continent, but there were thousands of mercenary groups, who knew which mercenary groups were helping the East Oguna Empire?
"We don't know. One of the regimental commanders shrugged.
"I don't know, you don't know about the mercenary union, aren't you in a gang?" Derek asked angrily, and the regimental commander who had just answered him immediately took a step back, he was just a small mercenary regiment leader, responsible for delivering clothes and weapons, and he didn't expect to be reprimanded by a general.
"Mercenary union?" Phyd responded.
"That's right, I already know that there are several mercenary groups of mercenary guilds who are helping them invade our land! What Tempest mercenary group, Longbow mercenary group, mountain king mercenary group" Derek listed the names of a bunch of mercenary groups, he claimed that these were mercenary groups of mercenary unions, and from what he said, Fei Deer could easily deduce that he had thrown the mercenary groups of the entire continent into the mercenary union, thinking that all mercenaries in the world belonged to the mercenary union.
Satnam immediately defended: "No, maybe General Derek doesn't know, the three of them are all resident mercenary groups in our Holy Light City in the Papal States, and they are not mercenaries who belong to some mercenary union, and the mercenary union only has nine mercenary groups, and now it seems that there are only eight left." ”
"I don't care about that!Anyway, the people who came to burn down the grain depot last time were mercenaries, those lackeys!" Derek angrily left his seat and walked out of the council hall, "Satnam, you immediately send the grain you just arrived into Doret City, otherwise the regent will blame you, and you won't want to have good fruit to eat!" As he walked out of the hall door, he turned around and warned Satnam fiercely.
Satnam cupped his cheek with one hand, and he thanked the three Fidels. When he heard that Feder and the other two mercenaries had brought more than a thousand mercenaries who were willing to accept the command of the Knights of the Church, Satnam asked the two leaders behind Fett to step back and rest, leaving Fett alone in the council hall.
"There's no one else here now," Satnam glanced at his deputy, Rasade, and there were only three people left in the hall, "although I heard that there would be reinforcements, but I didn't expect it to be you, does the archbishop have any important tasks entrusted to you?" Satnam asked thoughtfully.
Fide shook his head slightly, "It's not anything important, it's just to deliver the grain from the Duchy of Neo to your hands, the head of the regiment." ”
"I know that this is a great gift from the Duke of Aldington, who has always had a close relationship with the Archbishop, and if it weren't for the fact that the Duchy of Dramain and the Duchy of Magini were in the middle, he might have sent troops to attack Rivercastle with us. "Satnam already knew about the Battle of the River, and he had already drawn up a strategic plan far to the south, and let Rashad and others carry it out. Although there were many surprises in between, strategies such as the final siege fortifications were all expected by Satnam, and he was also conducting remote command in the far south, which only a few leaders of the Order of the Church knew about.
Seeing that Fielder had nothing else to say, Satnam continued: "But then again, you only brought more than a thousand people, which is really not enough, didn't you make a lot of achievements in the Battle of the River? Why don't you expand the size of your mercenary group." ”
"Time does not allow. ”
"Is that so?" asked Satnam, tilting his head, "how about I transfer some of the armed men of the Church to your command and let you command?"
At this time, Fei De took out a letter from his bosom, "This is my resignation, I hope the head of the regiment can accept it." "Originally, Fed planned to meet with Satnam, so he found an opportunity to lead the potato mercenary group to leave. But I didn't expect the other party to plan to hand over other tasks to myself, and I had to make a decision.
Rashad was a little surprised, but he took the envelope that Fide handed him and showed it to Satnam. Satnam read all of Field's handwritten letters before he spoke: "This is a good handwriting, but I will not accept my resignation for the time being, you must know that Your Excellency Fielder's potato mercenary group is an extraordinarily powerful mercenary group, a good helper of the Papal States," he refolded Field's handwritten letter and put it back in the envelope, "If you really want to leave, you must wait for our side to turn the corner." ”
Fidel didn't answer.
Rashad also advised: "Deputy Chief Fidel, we are facing a very serious situation now, and the invading army of the East Oguna Empire is about to approach the city of Dorette. The regent Xiu Mo has also gathered all the forces that can be used, and plans to fight it out in the city, and success or failure will be in one fell swoop!"
Satnam immediately continued, "If the new regime in the West is snuffed out, and our Papal States will be the next target, are you willing to watch those devout believers in the City of Light be slaughtered?"
Only the men of the Potato Mercenary Regiment are important to me, and the rest of the people, though they are not very willing to see them killed, but it has nothing to do with me, it is only the result of the self-inflicted blame of the people in power in the Papal States, and there is no reason for such a responsibility to be placed on my shoulders. Fidel said to himself in his heart.
Faced with this Field, who had no expression and didn't want to express his position, the head of the regiment, Satnam, had no choice. After all, mercenaries are mercenaries, and they are not accountable to anyone - except themselves. Seeing that Feder was silent, Rashad remembered that he had promised Feder that he would inform the other party about Koth after Fed's participation in the secret raid, "Deputy Head Fed, we still don't seem to have some things to finish, right?"
