The mellow taste of pineapple wine made Ron want to stop, and soon, a large bottle of fine wine was all in Ron and Merial's stomachs.

The pineapple wine was not very strong, Ron wiped his mouth, retracted the wine glass into the spatial ring, jumped off the stone, and walked straight to the willow leaf river.

"What are you doing?" Meria asked, curious.

"Preparing for the second test, there is still a while before they run back, so I will first find a suitable section of the river for testing. ”

The Willow River is not the kind of big river with a strong current, and most of the places seem to be shallows that can be waded through, but for the safety of the soldiers, Ron still dives into the river himself, once there is a rough terrain underwater, the soldiers who are tired from long-distance running are likely to be in danger because of a misstep.

Merial sat on the high platform and watched Ron quietly, his arm still wrapped in bandages, and at this time he was walking in the water with his pants pulled up, and he showed even more energy than himself, and the man seemed to see this not as a problem, as his own work, but more like enjoyment.

This kind of crazy spirit, Merial had only seen in her previous sister.

"By the way, Meria, you lived in Wishair before, what is the configuration of Wishal's army? Since it is the strongest country in the mainland, the number of troops should be quite a lot. ”

"Of course. Merial said loudly: "Wishaler has a total of five legions, the first is the 'White Army' stationed in the northern frontier of the empire, a total of 100,000 people, my sister fought in the White Army before, the strongest of the White Army is the stormtrooping force composed of a group of elite knights, this is very similar to the personal guard we formed; The Red Army', the main task of this army is to guard the demarcation line with the Fjords of Death, the Red Army's Flame Mage troops, which are quite powerful, numbering 150,000 people, in the western part of the empire, are the 'Green Army', the Blue Army's mixed army and sea forces, 50,000 navy has been patrolling along the coastline, and the 100,000-strong army is mostly recruits, usually trained by generals, and once war breaks out, these troops will be immediately sent to the front line, and in the east of the empire, they are the strongest in combat' The Black Army', a total of 300,000 people, are the absolute elite of Wishal, they are also the main force in the confrontation with the Kernillo Empire in the east, the Black Army is known as the strongest cavalry in the whole continent, and there are 10,000 mage troops; ”

Ron nodded slightly, the army of more than 700,000 people is worthy of being the first power in the continent, in the Death Fjord, magicians are definitely a rare existence, but in Wishal, there are tens of thousands of magician troops. The strength of the Wishaler Empire is still like this, and the strength of Kyrnilo, who can compete with Wishal, is also predictable. It's no wonder that the Fjords of Death have become the playthings of two great empires, and even if all the power of all the principalities is exhausted, it may be difficult to shake the rule of these two empires.

Seeing that Ron didn't speak, Meria thought that what she had just said had dampened the latter's enthusiasm, and couldn't help but pout: "What, the 700,000 army scared you?"

"Haha, that's not true. Ron suddenly stepped into the water with a kick in the air, and was caught off guard, plunged headlong into the water, and took a large gulp of water.

"Alright, just this distance. Ron cautiously climbed ashore and stuck his sword on the ground, "Except for the pit, this section of the river is safe. ”

Ron shook the water off his face and climbed back up the tall rock.

"700,000 is just a number. Ron sighed: "In addition to having troops and weapons and equipment, the talent of the generals is also very important, not only that, but the political harmony within the country is the most important, even the strongest building is afraid of collapsing from the inside." ”

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know what the situation is in our Principality of Noah, the enemy has been in the country for so long, and the entire Hamp Great Plains has fallen into the hands of the enemy, and we can't organize a decent offensive- It's as if the country's leadership system has collapsed, and in the same way, although the Westheil Empire seems to be a behemoth, once there is turmoil within the country due to political and power factors, and each army fights on its own, then such a large empire will collapse instantly, and the larger the country, the more difficult it will be to recover. Ron smiled and said, "To give you an example, it's like the Roa Leader I went to before, their lord was killed by me and Ginny and them, but it didn't take long for the Roa Leader to re-elect the acting lord, and now their development may be on the right track, but this is just a small lord, what if it is the emperor of the empire?"

Merial took a deep breath, "I see, but Wishale seems-"

"Don't be in a hurry to draw conclusions, do you think that Wishale is monolithic? You are wrong, no matter what era, what country, there must be corruption and moths inside, often the more corrupt the moths, the deeper the hidden, your sister, your Maylis family, can be said to be the future star of the empire, a family with great potential, can become the pillars of the empire, why are they framed? It is nothing more than because it violates the interests of some people. Ron saw the girl's increasingly pale face, and immediately waved his hand: "Of course, these are just speculations of mine, before the truth is revealed, all we can do is make bold assumptions and guesses." ”

Meria didn't seem to hear Ron's second half, and some possible speculations instantly appeared in her heart, what could directly destroy their Maylis family was nothing more than the group of people standing at the top of the empire, but it was difficult to defeat them......

"Yo, our soldiers have returned. ”

Ron's words interrupted Meria's thoughts, Meria looked in the direction of the thin formation, and sure enough, on the horizon of the Great Plains, one black figure after another appeared, and now the time was close to noon, and the temperature would be the highest of the day, fortunately, it had already passed the hottest season of the Great Plains of the Hamp.

This second test is just a good time for them to cool down. Ron smiled and patted Merial on the shoulder: "Don't think about it so much, the food must be eaten one bite at a time, the road must be taken step by step, let's deal with the things in our hands first, and see if those soldiers can become the elite soldiers under our command." ”
