The words "the way of the prince on the appointed day" immediately entered Feide's mind, and a picture appeared in an instant: Walter led the Duchy and the Kingdom's personal guards, appeared in front of the potato mercenary group, and then put Kesi in the carriage and took it away.

This is probably the best expression of the prince's way, right?, Fidel thought.

"What?" Coss saw Fed, who was stunned, and she snatched the letter and read it. When she finished reading, she couldn't help but roll her eyes, "This Walter, you're planning to pick me up someday?!" The Duke's daughter showed a shy and nervous expression at this time, and even a flush appeared on her cheeks. It is conceivable that the picture that appeared in Kesi's mind at this time must be more gorgeous and magnificent than Fide imagined.

Soon, however, a complicated expression appeared on Kesi's face, and she pursed her lips, glanced at Fidel and then looked down at the letter, "You should know, right?"

"Know what?"

"I'm a man with a marriage contract"

"Oh. ”

"I am a candidate for marriage between the two countries, and the reason why I was sent to the Kingdom of Sarins is to adapt to the court etiquette of the kingdom as soon as possible, and to marry Walter, the third prince of your kingdom, one day. "Once Koth marries Walter, and Walter Feremiz does not become king, then he will return to the capital of the duchy with Koth and accompany Koth to rule Deraman, who inherits the throne, and if Walter inherits the throne, Koth will also come to live in Mallot, and Walter will also get the rule of the Duchy of Deraman, so this move of the Kingdom of Sahlins is very beautiful.

Feder turned into a lying position again, he put the pillow on it, then closed his eyes and said, "I don't know the third prince named Walter, I only know that the eldest prince Bradley is a strong general." Feder deliberately avoided the matter of Koth's engagement, he didn't want to influence the course of the matter.

"Actually"

Seeing the other party's reaction, Kesi's heart was cold, and she didn't say any more. She pushed open the window, blew out the oil lamp and walked out of the window.

Feder sat up, looking at the closed window, remembering the look on Kleth's face when she saw the letter. She must have been glad to imagine Walter coming to pick her up from the palace, right? Although he has little experience in seeing through women's emotions and expressions, judging from the reaction of Kesi to the letter on that ship half a year ago, this duke's daughter is actually quite looking forward to the prince marrying her, right?

Fett's idea was simple, but he couldn't discern how Keth felt about him. The two have been through a lot of things along the way, and Kesi has already made a secret promise to Fidel, but Felder just treats her as a good friend. Although Feder also had some feelings outside of friendship with the other party, he didn't grasp his emotions, and he still experienced too little.

That night Fed slept deeply, perhaps because of the fact that there were many things going on at the same time, which made him struggle with his brains, and finally fell asleep from exhaustion.

For the next half month, the potato mercenary group was training non-stop. Many mercenaries heard that the Church Alliance had appointed this new mercenary group as the chief mercenary group, and they came to join it, but Fei De did not agree - first, these mercenaries are of low quality, and they are all guys who can't be selected by other mercenary groups or like to see the wind and steer; second, the potato mercenary group does not have a lot of funds in hand, so it is still tentatively set at 100 mercenary groups, which is enough in the current situation.

Blake, who lost a thigh, gradually recovered, although his heart to be a mercenary has not changed, but he can only accept the reality and go back to his hometown to live with one leg for the rest of his life. During this period, a mercenary with particularly good riding skills was recruited, his name was Luca, a young man who had just turned twenty-six years old. He was very good at using a lance, even more proficient than the knights who had been trained in spears, and was definitely a rare talent. Fidel appointed him as the squad leader of the cavalry squadron as well, so that the cavalry squadron would have one squadron leader, two squad leaders, and fifteen mounted mercenaries.

During this time, Feder began to observe the activities of Avi and Bignose Fan, but apart from the fact that they often ran in the direction of the Church Letter, the two did not make any special moves. The matter of Koth did not come up again, and it seemed that the Archbishop and the Pope were no longer focused on her.

There has been no new news or notice from the church, and the group of Knights of the Church seem to be busy dealing with various things, once Fei De met the chief knight Riley on the street, and the other party walked in a very hurry, and passed by without even saying a formal greeting.

Both Fed and Cose knew that the archbishop had been "troubled" by the Pope in this way, and there must be something to deal with now, and the first task was to prevent this from happening again, after all, Malvin, the deputy head of His Majesty's Knight Mercenary Regiment, did not look very good when he left.

More news about the civil war in the East Oguna Empire also came one after another.

The first is the internal affairs of the East Oguna Empire, the prime minister Hollow has left the Glynco, and he himself went to seek the help of the two major forces in the empire. Although it is not yet known what the outcome will be, some people close to the prime minister say that if they do not receive "flesh-cutting" assistance this time, the East Oguna Empire may face the danger of splitting again.

This rumor excites everyone in the Papal States, and for a country with only one city, the more scattered the opponents, the easier it is to break down. In the face of the united Illuminati followers, the cultists of the East Oguna Empire are certainly powerless.

Secondly, the Western Oguna Empire, also known as the Holy Oguna Empire, had crossed the Split Mountains, and their large forces had entered the center of the Western Oguna Empire by land. But their supplies have not yet kept up, after all, it is not easy for a man's feet to pass through the divided mountains, let alone ox carts and horse-drawn carts, and in a little while, the mountains will be closed by heavy snow. Therefore, their offensive was temporarily slowed down, after all, the southernmost sea route on the mainland was not smooth.

Due to the division of the Oguna Empire, Admiral Sloman, who had been stationed in the southern ports, expressed his allegiance to Electrum IV and was reluctant to join the rebels in the West. Therefore, Golia and Xiumo did not even have a single ship in their hands, and even if they worked and built ships overnight, they might not necessarily have a slight advantage in naval battles. Sloman also deployed his navy in various ports in the south, and waited for Prime Minister Hollow's order to launch a counterattack against the rebels in the west.

Reports of the war between the Eastern Oguna Empire and the Kosai Kingdom also kept coming. It is said that Hollow transported all the elite forces and grain and grass weapons in the country to the battlefield in the north, in order to protect the results obtained from the previous raid on the territory of the Winter Kingdom. Godala, the general who had been deep in the territory of the Winter Kingdom, also relied on the support of Kevin the "Silver Hand" to drive back the Winter Kingdom soldiers who had been counterattacking, and they still occupied a large area of the captured land.

Some mercenaries who came from that battlefield said that the place was already icy and snowy, extremely cold and dry. The body of the Imperial people is not adapted to such an environment, and now it is only the end of the crossbow, and when King Adam of the Kingdom of Cosai has eliminated the attacking army of the Duchy of Magini, he will have his hands free to deal with the invading Imperial soldiers. Some mercenaries also said that they should not go to that place to look for work at this time, because the Imperial people there have no food support at all, and many Imperial soldiers are drinking snow water and eating tree bark. On the contrary, the soldiers of the kingdom who have been living in the territory of the Winter Kingdom have the support of the local peasants, and although their combat effectiveness is not as good as that of the Empire, they are finally well fed and clothed.

It's late December, and the Papal States, a country in the heart of the continent, are feeling the cold. As in previous years, this year's winter is considered to have come late, but this winter will continue until next April - because the spring here is also very cold, like a cold winter.

The main forces of the empire were pinned down on the northern front, and the powerful nobles in the country were intriguing with each other, and even the three principalities, which had originally held a neutral attitude, immediately drew a line with the empire, and it was not sure that one day they would mobilize their troops and run to the territory of the empire to get a piece of the pie.

This series of good news filled the Holy Light City, and every mercenary and believer here became more and more confident that under the leadership of the Church Alliance, they would easily eliminate the cultists of the East Oguna Empire. Rumor has it that the Knights of the Church will continue to wait and see what happens, and will not launch an attack on the East Oguna Empire until next March. At that time, the ice and snow will melt, and the East Oguna Empire will also be exhausted by the two fronts, and the Church Alliance will naturally be able to reap the benefits of the fishermen.

It's just that the expression on the archbishop's face is getting more and more ugly.

Since the meeting of the Church Alliance that day, I don't know how the leaders of the mercenary groups who supported the Pope penetrated the archbishop's "protective net" and contacted the Pope. They voluntarily set up a "Papal Guard" composed of religious mercenaries for the Pope at their own expense, which instantly attracted a lot of devout believers to join, and even some knights who originally served in the Church Knights also devoted themselves to it, making this Guardian Group suddenly become a military group that competes with the Church Knights. It is said that there are nearly 8,000 members of the Papal Guard, and their remuneration is paid by the mercenary groups that support the Pope, and they only obey the orders of the Pope alone.

This made the archbishop unable to sit still. Although he ostensibly expressed his approval of the establishment of the Guards, he had ordered the Knights of the Church to keep a close watch on the whereabouts of the captains of the Guards, and to report them at all times. The members of the Papal Guard said that they would personally protect the Pope who was about to conquer the Empire, so the archbishop could not find a good reason not to let these spontaneous believers join them.

Another thing that the archbishop was very concerned about was that the kingdom of Salins sent the second prince, Antho Feremeiz, as an envoy to the Papal States, to discuss with the pope about the introduction and exchange of religions.
