Squadron Leader Jasmine opened her mouth wide, then slowly bent the corners of her mouth, narrowed her lips, and finally let out a loud laugh, and she was close to becoming a madman.

Fei De waited for a while and did not see any of his subordinates stand up to express their disapproval, and everyone seemed to be just a little stunned, but soon most of the captains returned to their normal expressions. Several of the captains who were reluctant to speak were affected by Jasmine's laughter, and they ultimately did not say anything about Fidel's decision.

"In other words, I will leave Morning Light City with the Potato Mercenary Regiment. The time to leave Dawnlight City is undecided, and the target location is undecided... It is not even decided who will follow me to the kingdom of Cose. ”

Although Winotki was frustrated, she immediately asked, "Who is following... Commander, what do you mean by that? Why didn't I understand?"

Luca, who was standing beside Winotki, also asked, "Yes, didn't you decide to leave the warm Morning Light City with the Potato Mercenary Regiment, Commander?"

As soon as the word "warmth" was mentioned, the captains who wanted to stay in Dawnlight City felt a pang of sadness. They felt that no matter what reason Captain Fede gave up later, it would be difficult for them to let go of the idea of staying here for the winter. It's about to enter November, and the north at this time is bound to be snowy and bitterly cold. Many people who live in the north choose to leave there and live in the warmth of the south. However, the regiment commander suddenly changed his mind and abandoned the Morning Light City, which had only been set after leaving Dumu City, which really puzzled these captains.

"I plan to leave some of the subordinates of the Potato Mercenary Group in Morninglight City, and even consider sending some of my subordinates back to Dumu City, and use both Morning Light City and Dumu City as the stronghold of our Potato Mercenary Group," no one could have thought that Fei De would arrange it like this, "I will seriously consider the selection of candidates who stay here and return to Dumu City, the specific number will not be very large, and the large force of the Potato Mercenary Group will still follow me and set off to the north." ”

"To the north... Is it just for those two treasure spots where the treasure may be buried?"

"Not just for the treasure, I think the Kingdom of Kosai is the next stop for the Potato Mercenaries, not the peaceful and stable Duchy of Delaman. ”

This clear sentence made many captains begin to understand what Fid meant, peace is not what the Potato Mercenary Group needs, and there will be no strife in the place where Morning Light City is located, but the Kingdom of Cosse is completely different. At this time, some of the captains had changed their minds, after all, they were companions who followed Fed's life and death, and cold was nothing compared to loyalty.

Noor clapped his palms, "The kingdom of Kosai is a good place! I used to live there. Except for the poor living environment, everything is good, we are mercenaries in the first place, and life is almost nothing... But if you go to the northernmost part of the Winter Country, it's really cold, and even the sea and my beard will freeze..."

Selena said, "I've long been aware of the cold, after all, I thought we would be part of the Mercenary Guild. As soon as the former female knight said this, everyone remembered the MONOCULUS Mercenary Group and the Beauty Mercenary Group. The mercenary guild mercenary group in the Kingdom of Kosai is the weakest, and the potato mercenary group does not have to worry about this.

After seeing that several of the most powerful captains in the mercenary group agreed, the other captains also let go of their hesitation. Toto only asks for more men to take care of his ballista cart, as the mechanical parts may fail in the event of frost, Vega fears that the extreme cold will affect his performance and prevent him from being able to perform 100% in battle, and Winotki plans to knit a small sweater for the gray-and-white folded cat that Ayana has raised and cared for, so that the old cat can survive the cold of the Winter Country.

After confirming that there was no objection from the captain, Fidel began to discuss specific arrangements with several squadron leaders. Benjamin, who was most opposed to leaving Morninglight City in the winter, was given the right to stay here at the first time, and Fidel would guarantee his R&D funds, even if Benjamin might not be able to produce anything in the end, the Potato Mercenary Corps would still provide them with protection.

Selena quickly realized the pros and cons of leaving Morning Light City, and her analysis in front of the squadron leader was similar to the "three disadvantages and three pros" written by Vittorio overnight, and she also mentioned one point that Vittorio did not mention - the Duchy of Dramain was likely to act together with the Kingdom of Salins, and for the Kingdom of Salins, the neighboring Theoguna Empire and the Independent Alliance were the most likely targets. Both of these forces have served in the past, and as long as the Potato Mercenary Group wants to expand its influence and earn more rewards, it is very likely that it will have friction with these two forces.

But leaving Morning Light City and going to the Kosai Kingdom will not have such troubles, after all, the enemies of the Kosai Kingdom are mainly the East Oguna Empire, and this large country located in the southeast of the continent may have regarded Fid and the Potato Mercenary Group as enemies that will never be removed.

The other squadron leaders expressed their opinions, wrote down on paper what might happen if they left Morning Light City and went to the Kosai Kingdom, and then discussed solutions for each situation. Everyone began to look forward to a challenging future, even if it was the northernmost part of the icy continent.

When Patrick was left in the tent, the former champion gladiator asked directly, "Is it because of Vittorio that Fed, did you suddenly decide to change our direction?"

"You guessed it. ”

"Of our group, I'm afraid he is the only one who has the ability to lay out this strategic direction, he is a visionary businessman, and he is also a top student of the Peace Grave Military Academy, but don't forget Field, he only has the Duchy of Mageni in his heart. ”

Fei De pondered for a moment before replying: "The Potato Mercenary Group can't just be a mercenary group with strength, it's not enough to be strong in combat, we still need greater development." ”

"We almost got success from there. ”

"yes, just a little bit. Fed's eyes closed, and everything he had experienced in the Duchy of Mageni came back to mind, especially Mave's voice and smile.

Patrick didn't interrupt Fed's recollections, he took a sip of tea, then took off the mask, and after briefly cleaning the mask, he saw that Fed's eyes were open, and the dark eyes seemed to be a little moist.

"I also thought about it, Winter Country is indeed suitable for us now. Besides, we have an old acquaintance like Ludwig, and the Kingdom of Cosey is more reliable than the Duchy of Magne, so we will have more room to play. Patrick turned sideways to Feder so that he could calm down without anyone looking.

Fei De himself did not expect that this year's experience would affect him so deeply, whether it was the effort or the gain, these greatly exceeded Fei De's expectations when he went to Dumu City.

At the beginning of November 949 in the Old Kingdom calendar, the mercenary leader of the Potato Mercenary Regiment, Fed, chose to set his sights on the Kosai Kingdom, and Morninglight City became a small stronghold and springboard for the Potato Mercenary Regiment, and the young mercenary group only stayed here for less than a month before they set off again.

During the month, Fide met with some of the nobles of the Duchy of Deramain who came to visit. The principality nobles did as Vittorio had expected, with distrust written on their faces, and their suspicions mixed with wine poured into their stomachs. Although they did not say it explicitly, Fidel's previous experience obviously influenced their judgment and plans, none of the nobles planned to hire this famous mercenary group, and most of them hinted at the same opinion - the Duchy of Deramain would not be an enemy of any country on the mainland, they wanted to protect the peace of the Duchy, and only peace and stability were the future they pursued. But Fide knew in his heart that there was no point in a country's temporary peace and stability.

Unlike Duke Yannis who summoned Fidel, Archduke Webster of the Duchy of Delamain did not have any call for the potato mercenary group, and even the nobles above the earl level did not say hello to the potato mercenary group entering Dawnlight City. On the contrary, some mercenaries from the vicinity of Morninglight City have come here, either hoping to join the potato mercenary group or to make friends with Fidel.

The young mercenary Mustang has summoned his companions to Morninglight City, but it is said that the Mustang Mercenary Regiment is still gathering other native mercenaries, all of whom are interested in following Fed. In addition to fame, the generous treatment of the Potato Mercenary Group also attracted many people who wanted to join, but Reeves and Selena were very strict in their control, and only recruited less than 500 people in total.

Fidel and his men would visit Vittorio every few days, and every time he walked down the street, he would meet young women who looked at him with admiration, most of whom had curly brown hair and pale green eyes, like Koss. Whenever a young woman approached Field, the mercenary captain around Fielder would walk away in a familiar manner, or take the initiative to "sell" Fielder to them, after all, Field's reputation is not good, and such a young and capable handsome man is of course very popular with the opposite sex. As long as Captain Ayana is not with Field, the other male mercenary captains will act in a way that bothers Field.

Fed's face was also expressionless when he rejected those young and beautiful people of the opposite sex, and many of Fed's suitors thought it was a sign of rejection, and the enthusiastic and bold women of the Duchy of Deramain became more proactive, and they even went to the camp of the Potato Mercenary Group outside the city to show Fed's favor with gifts.

Early one morning, as Fed was about to enter the city to meet the person in charge of the mercenary house, a well-dressed woman rushed out of the alley with a long object in her hand. Before Noor and Lukka could stop each other, the woman had fallen to the ground from slipping, and the long object had fallen out of the wrapped coarse cloth, a two-handed sword wrapped in rattan.

Before Lukka could step forward to help the other party, the woman raised her head, "Captain Field, Captain Field, please save my father! Please!" The woman supported the cold ground with her hands, and her tearful eyes were full of sadness and pity. And in the alley not far behind her was standing a little girl, who looked very much like this woman.
