Chapter Ninety-Three: Prince Charlie
"The whole army rested in place, the reconnaissance team, to the north, the reconnaissance radius of 20 kilometers, all cheered up, and in front of it was the war zone. ”
Norman picked up the water bag and poured it hard. "Damn, Captain Sayles, supplies ahead have been prepared. ”
"Captain Norman, rest assured, according to the map, we are in front of us in the territory of the Buturus family, and there is absolutely no problem with supplies. "After nearly ten days of rapid marching, even if Sails was strong, he was quite unbearable, and he wanted to immediately throw himself into bed and sleep with him for three days and three nights.
To Sayles's surprise, the army of 10,000 men in front of him still maintained a fairly high mental state after so many days of rapid marching. You must know that nine out of ten of these fighters can only be regarded as junior and intermediate fighters, and their strength is not high. But the waywardness is so strong that Sayles admires it greatly.
"It is worthy of the ace elite of the Kingdom of Willante!" said Sayles.
"Hmph!" Norman was quite unkind to the leader of the mercenary group in front of him, as the captain of the second brigade of the Holy Knights of Willant, he was supposed to enjoy the days surrounded by beautiful women and wine in Valhalla, but because of this kid, he let himself come to this place where Norman doesn't look like birds pooping.
Originally, since the Lionheart Paladin Leon defected, the captain of the second brigade remained vacant until the regimental commander Tiger brought Leon back and escorted him to the Exiled Lands.
The reason why Norman was able to become the captain of this brigade that had been empty for twenty years was completely a political game within the kingdom of Wilante.
Norman is the third son of the Duke of Upton in the Kingdom of Wilante, and because the Duke of Upton is a die-hard supporter of Prince Charlie, and Norman himself is quite talented, he has barely reached the level of a title warrior.
For the former captain Leon, Prince Charlie's original intention was to be executed directly, but it was strongly opposed by the Wilante military, especially all the officers of the Holy Knights led by the head of the Holy Knights, Tiger.
Although Prince Charles only covers the sky in the Kingdom of Willant, he is limited to government affairs and the aristocratic class, and his influence on the real standing army in the Kingdom is really limited. This incident made Prince Charles very anxious to install his own power in the army.
Therefore, Prince Charles recommended Norman to the Minister of War to be the captain of the second brigade, and in exchange, Prince Charles's family will no longer insist on executing the former captain Leon, but will be forced to go to exile.
After some deliberation between the Minister of War and Tiger, Prince Charlie was forced to compromise.
However, due to the fact that the Lionheart Paladin Leon's influence on the second team is too far-reaching, twenty years have passed, and the soldiers have changed one after another, but under word of mouth, Leon is still a god-like existence in the heart of the second team.
The second brigade was not interested in Norman's arrival, and the color of contempt was overflowing, which made Norman very annoyed, but there was nothing he could do.
Prince Charles was very careful about planting his own forces in the army, but Norman did not achieve the desired effect in the Holy Knights, which also made Prince Charles very dissatisfied.
Just when Prince Charles was about to give up on cultivating his power in the army, his son Demps found him.
"Father, the Dawning Church is really evil, my good brother Pete's father, Grand Duke Meihe, was killed by them, and they also supported a puppet, making my brother Pete homeless. Father, Pete said in the letter that he wanted to borrow 5,000 elite soldiers to help him put down the rebellion. ”
Prince Charles closed his eyelids, looked at the letter in his hand, and then handed the letter to the Duke of Upton beside him with a blank face.
The Duke of Upton also had a very difficult time, and finally won an errand for his son to show his face, but he did nothing, which made Prince Charles very dissatisfied, and even his own father.
"Hey, I thought it was something, but I came to move the rescuers. Only fools will send troops, and when they are all wiped out, we will join forces with the Oder Kingdom to divide them, which is much more than half of the treasure in this treasure house......!
"Hehe, Upton, let your Norman get ready, and give him this opportunity. Prince Charles suddenly spoke up.
"Good...... Uh...... "Hearing Prince Charles say this, the Duke of Upton almost didn't get angry, although Norman is not the first heir of his family, but he is also a real son, and his strength is outstanding, and he has never led troops into battle.
Is it a joke to lead troops into battle? That is a mortal death, and on the battlefield, although the probability of a general's survival is high, it is not much higher than that of a small soldier.
"Uh...... Well...... That, Prince, we can wait until the heir of the Grand Duke of Meihe dies before uniting with the Oder Kingdom to send troops, so that we can minimize the losses and maximize the benefits. Upton was shirking, but it was reasonable.
"Don't forget, your son Norman doesn't have full control of the Second Brigade yet. What is the quickest way to master an army? Of course, military merit! Where is the place where our kingdom of Willant can obtain military merit? The three levels of damnation! The three levels of damnation against the exile! Why don't you let Norman go to the three levels of the damnation to change defenses?"
Upton smiled awkwardly when he heard this.
But Prince Charles continued: "You are willing to let your son go to the three passes of the damnation to change the guard, I don't feel at ease to let him go! The guards of the three passes of the damnation cannot tolerate the slightest sloppiness, why do you think I have not taken action against the military for so many years, just because I am afraid that there will be problems at the three passes of the damnation." ”
"You go back and talk to Norman in advance, 5,000 is too few, let him take the second brigade with all, and the Minister of War will agree. This time to the Principality of Meihe, Norman must firmly hold this 10,000-strong army in his hands, and there must be no more mistakes. ”
Upton hurriedly responded, and couldn't help but think in his heart: If you don't help you if you don't help you as a father, you really can't go away. After thinking about it, he could send a few masters in his family to Norman to protect him, and the Principality of Meihe is not a Longtan Tiger's Den, and it is okay for the Dawning Church to make some small moves, but it seems that it has never ended miserably against the elites of the three kingdoms.
"Hehe, besides...... The two countries divide the interests of the Principality of Meihe, and what can fall into the hands of this king, this heir of the Grand Duke of Meihe, is still a little smart. ”
