Chapter XXVI Plans
"Griman, why are you here? Could it be that something is wrong with the business in the Imperial Capital?"
When Feng Xifan, Oryx and the others rushed in, Leo was surprised to find that Griman, who had been sent to assist Ney in going to the imperial capital to do the ceramics business, was also among them. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Seeing Leo asking, Griman unhurriedly came out of the crowd, and saluted Leo before saying: "Dear Young Master Leo, business is very hot in the imperial capital, the porcelain we produce is deeply loved by the nobles of the imperial capital, and the pottery is also accepted by the common people, Lord Ney thinks that he is enough to control the current situation in the imperial capital, so he sent me to assist the young master." ā
Gleeman's respectful attitude made Leo a little surprised, since Feng Xifan subdued Gleeman, although he gave Gleeman sword skills, so that Gleeman had more strength in various places, but in fact, Leo knew that Gleeman was not convinced by himself, and he had always had an unruly attitude, which made Leo secretly have a headache. On the one hand, Greman's rich experience can assist Ney to better conduct business in the imperial capital, and on the other hand, Ney's strength can also suppress Grimman.
The unconcealable look of surprise on Leo's cold face, which had always been expressionless, looked in Gleeman's eyes, but it was extremely ironic, and he couldn't help but remind Gleeman of these days in the imperial capital. On the way to the imperial capital, Gleeman first provoked Ney with his newly learned swordsmanship, wanting to give Ney a dismount to compete for the right to speak in the team, but he was beaten by Ney's superb swordsmanship, and in the days after that, he would be taught a lesson by Ney almost at any time in the name of practicing swordsmanship. It wasn't until they arrived in the imperial capital that Ney was too busy with the ceramics business to take care of Griman, which made Griman breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time, Gleman was also frightened by the mysterious and unpredictable masters around Leo, and no longer dared to underestimate this down-and-out aristocratic boy.
When the ceramics business stabilized, Ney no longer traveled to the major trading houses in the imperial capital, no longer frequently visited high-ranking officials and magnates, and had more leisure time, Griman hurriedly offered to Ney to go to the counterinsurgency to assist Leo, so that he was able to escape from Ney's clutches.
Of course, Griman would definitely not mention these things to Leo and others, in his mouth, he was worried that Leo and others had just arrived in the south and needed experienced guides, so he took the initiative to come to the counterinsurgency to assist Leo after the ceramic business in the imperial capital was stable.
Although neither Leo nor Feng Xifan and others believed Gleeman's self-talking, but his ability to come at such a time was impressive.
"Uh-huh, Master Leo, I think I understand what happened! But the current situation is not as bad as you think!" said Griman after Leo explained the current situation to everyone, shrugging his shoulders.
"Oh?" Raymond's eyes lit up with hope when he heard Griman say this. Preemptively said to Griman, "Tell me, what's your idea?"
After experiencing the initial panic, Raymond began to show good aristocratic qualities, and all the panicked looks on his face were eliminated, replaced by a calm and calm expression that he tried his best to make, although there were still some traces of deliberate artificiality, but it had already made Leo and others secretly admire.
Although Griman didn't know Raymond, he still responded politely: "Since the content of the military order is for us to investigate the deployment of the rebels, then at least we can get out of the sight of Young Master Frank and them for the time being." Now we are not important people, we do not have important military positions, no one in the rebels will pay attention, we just need to hide our identities and infiltrate the southern provinces will be easy. As for how to find out......"
Speaking of this, Gleeman hesitated for a moment, glanced up at Leo and Feng Xifan, and then said: "As for the investigation, we can leave it to others to do, and then we only need to collect the results." ā
When Leo heard this, he glanced at Gleeman, his face was silent, but in Leo's heart, he had already guessed the meaning of Gleeman's words.
Griman noticed Leo's gaze and was stunned, but he stammered his plan: "That...... Previous years...... I've traveled to many places with the Wildfire Thieves, and I've made a lot of friends in the three southern provinces, and the thieves are the most professional in things like spying on intelligence, so as long as we can afford to pay for it, we can hire them to ask us to collect information, so that we can complete the mission without any danger at all. ā
For the plan he proposed, Gleman is quite confident that it will be realized, which is also an important way to reflect the value in this team, after all, Young Master Leo now has Feng Xifan, Ney and other masters, as well as Roman light infantry, beggar army and other elite brave soldiers, but snakes have snake paths, rats and rats, with years of thief career, some inconvenient dirty work can only be done for Leo alone.
The idea struck Raymond's eye, it was a great idea, safe and mission-accomplishing, it was perfect. Raymond glanced at Griman appreciatively, and could tell from his words that although he used to be a thief, he has now changed his ways, and he is brave and resourceful, and he is a talent.
Raymond's approval could be seen in his eyes, and Leo was also very much in favor of Gleeman's plan, so the plan was approved without objection.
Leo and Raymond immediately led their men to pack up and leave the barracks and embark on the road south. Just after they left the camp gate, a gaze withdrew from the curtain of the barracks command camp, and a sinister smile quietly appeared on the face of the new marching mage Frank, and the attendants in the camp were terrified.
Under the leadership of Leo, the group entered Rien City in a low-key manner to replenish the necessary supplies, and then left Rien City in a low-key manner. When passing through the main camp of the Grizzly Legion in the south of the city, the orderly camp and the earth-shattering training roar all showed that this was a real elite legion.
"Alas, with an elite legion like Grizzly Bear, I think it would be enough to crush the rebellion, so why organize a garbage legion like the noble private army to hold back?" Griman sighed as he shook his head after bypassing the Grizzly Legion camp.
Little Tom, who had not yet recovered from the momentum of the Grizzlies, also nodded his head wildly in agreement with Griman's words.
"If you don't organize a noble private army, how can I have a chance to lead you to make a contribution, young master?" Leo retorted angrily.
What Leo said was that although the aristocratic private army was just a plate of loose sand and was of great use, from the perspective of His Majesty the Emperor and the nobles, it had a great effect. Raymond nodded slowly like a little adult.
Seeing that Griman and the others pouted, although they didn't say anything, but the expression obviously didn't believe their words, Raymond said anxiously: "For the nobles, if they get the title step by step, they can only inherit or make meritorious contributions, but it is difficult to find opportunities to establish meritorious service in peacetime, so this counterinsurgency is a rare opportunity, if His Majesty the Emperor does not form a noble private army to participate in the war, it is estimated that the nobles will have opinions, even the emperor has to take care of the emotions of all the nobles." ā
Raymond slowed down and said: "Besides, the formation of a private army is also a good thing for His Majesty the Emperor, from the situation of the major nobles sending troops, it can be seen whether they are loyal or not, for example, the Covinas family of Leo's eldest brother sent two male heirs of the family into battle at one time, this must be a family that is extremely loyal to the empire and His Majesty." And you can also discover talents from the performance of private troops, and you can also use the elite division of the Grizzly Legion to deter those with evil intentions. It's a multi-tasking thing. ā
Raymond's analysis, so that Leo couldn't help but look at Raymond with a scrutinizing gaze, I really didn't expect Raymond to analyze so much at once, to have this kind of insight, it is estimated that at least from those old nobles who have been inherited for hundreds of years, and there should be elders in high positions in the family, so they will pay attention to and analyze the problem from the perspective of His Majesty the Emperor. Regarding the identity of this thin young man, Leo has another guess.
Leo suddenly woke up, looked at Raymond with a little suspicion in his eyes and said, "Raymond, how do you know that I am from the Covinus family? I remember that I didn't seem to have introduced you to you!?"
Seeing that Leo's expression was a little guarded, the corners of Raymond's mouth rose slightly: "Oh, Leo, you are a celebrity in the Academy of Magic, and I am also a student of the Royal Academy of Magic, although you may not know me, how can I not know you?"
Hearing Raymond say this, Leo suddenly felt that all the shelves could not be held, and three black lines were about to pop up on his head, it seems that the name of this magic academy waste is to accompany the rhythm of his life! Seeing that Leo, who has always been cold and calm, now looks terrified, even the middle-aged attendant behind Raymond, who has always been an old god and indifferent to everything, can't help but snicker.
At the same time that Leo and the others packed up and left the private barracks and marched towards the three southern provinces, from the private barracks of the counterinsurgency army, a person dressed as a retinue galloped out of the barracks with a horse, if it was in the barracks of other legions, I am afraid that they would have to be stopped and questioned if they couldn't even get out of the camp gate, but in the chaotic private barracks, the departure of this horse did not attract the attention of those ruffians at all. Although the path taken by this retinue was different from that of Leo and others, it also led to the south.
