When Anfei and Chris walked out of Fernando's headquarters side by side, Fernando didn't know what the Empire meant, so he decided to report the news as soon as possible, giving the High Priests of the Holy See a headache. 【】

Amphi had been thinking about Fernando's judgment in line with the facts, and judging from the current situation, the necromancers could have made the situation more chaotic and the number of undead creatures larger, but they didn't do anything, there must have been something that had attracted all their energy and made them have no time to control anything else.

But this problem is not something he can worry about, even Fernando also reported the news to the upper echelons of the Holy See, although his power has been growing rapidly, but it is still too far away from the decision-making level.

Chris led the way and led An Fei to a spacious house, which was very clean, surprisingly there were still a few maids and servants who were busy, talking about this Fernando's personal discipline was impeccable, he insisted on living in tents with the soldiers, and the few mansions of the rich families in Regenburg were all divided among others, Chris and several generals of the Mao Empire had a share, and even reserved one for An Fei who was not here.

Of course, the generals of the Maao Empire don't appreciate it, they know in their hearts that Fernando will get out sooner or later, and they always ridicule Fernando for being too hypocritical when chatting, to tell the truth, this kind of evaluation from a hostile point of view is somewhat one-sided, and with Fernando's status, even if he keeps the best living conditions for himself, he should be. No one can find fault with anything, and this is a very good habit, and there are very few generals who can do this degree throughout the entire Big 6.

Anfei and Chris and the others had just taken their seats. Hearing the news, Orsi strode in with a stranger, the stranger was tall but too thin, especially his face and eyes were deeply sunken, and his cheekbones were bulging, and he looked malnourished. It's about to turn into a skeleton.

"Your Excellency, you're back. Alsillo bent over and said, "This is our Master Amphi." ”

"Thomson, a mid-level swordsman and leader of the Thorn Mercenary Regiment, greets your lord!" the stranger didn't talk nonsense, stepped forward and fell to one knee on the ground.

"Arise, arise this is ......"

"Thomson, the adult, has decided to join our big league. Orsi laughed. Then he turned to look at Thomson, "Thomson said the wrong thing, right? ”

"Hehe......" Thomson said with a wry smile, "I don't know if the adults are willing to accept us, if not...... I'm still going to have to rely on this brand to mix rice. ”

"From now on, you will be the commander of the Seventh Regiment of the Grand Alliance. An Fei smiled and said, "I don't need to introduce you to Chris and Orsi. This is one of the elders of the Risesca's Grand League, this is the head of our magic regiment in Bravi, and this is Ageraz. The deputy head of the magic group is also this Ozgüch. The commander of the 1st Regiment is the commander of the 6th Regiment of Himpella......"

"Long admiration, long admiration. Every time Anfei introduced someone, Thomson had to bend down and be polite.

"Sit down, everyone is their own people, no need to be polite. Ozgucci laughed.

Thomson hesitated for a moment, waited for Orcy to swagger down before sitting down cautiously, not because he was worried about any surprise, but because he was afraid that his attitude would cause others to resent him.

"Thomson, you can take the big picture into account and choose to join the big leagues, and the selfless spirit is admirable. An Fei said slowly: "Don't worry, in the big league, everyone is a real family, sharing blessings and difficulties, when you don't have to be too restrained, as for how your seventh regiment is arranged, it is up to you to decide, I will not interfere." ”

As a leader, he used these words to define Thomson and said that his welcome could not be said to be too bad, but it could not be said to be very decent, and if Alice was here, he must have sprinkled a lot of warmth, which made Thomson feel heartfelt. However, there is no need to criticize Anfei for this matter, assassins and orators are two completely different professions, Alice has been exposed to political affairs since she was a child, this belongs to her field, and what she can do just right does does not mean that Anfei can do it, on the contrary, what Anfei can do, she may not be able to do.

"Understood, sir. Thomson nodded slightly and smiled: "Actually, I have always been a little hesitant, but Lord Orsi's words completely moved me, he said that the mercenary country has fallen into such an unbearable situation because the mercenary groups disobey each other, and even fight each other, and the forces are too scattered! The Mao Empire has defeated the undead creatures, the Elison Empire and the Shining Sand Empire have also controlled the situation, but the mercenary country has fallen into total chaos, which makes people sigh...... We can't do this anymore!, so I'm willing to serve under your command and follow your lord to create a truly unified mercenary country!"

An Fei glanced at Orsi in some surprise, but he didn't expect Orsi to have the potential to be a lobbyist, and Thomson in front of him was not an ordinary person, his words had two meanings, one was to highlight Orsi's merits, and it could also be said that he 'laid' Alsie, since Orsi was his introducer, then what benefits did Orsi encounter in the future, out of obligation, how about Orsi

If he encounters a difficult situation, he will also lend a helping hand, so that he will be isolated in the General Assembly. Also, he put forward a grand goal, with An Fei's current sphere of influence and what he has done, as long as An Fei is not a madman who wants to conquer the whole world, then becoming the king of the mercenary country is undoubtedly the ultimate goal, no matter how big the ambition is, even this kind of goal, Thomson also supports his loyalty, and naturally there is no need to question it.

After listening to Thomson's words, everyone fell into silence, among them, Ozgüch's face was the most exciting, he repented and at the same time entered a state of excitement, regret was why he didn't think of this? Defect to Anfei and form a grand alliance, Ezgüch's biggest ideal is to squeeze into the power core of the mercenary country, why are there only four mercenary groups to reap the benefits? As for creating a situation of great unification, he never thought that now Thomson's words reminded him at once. He was excited because he thought about the days after Anfei became king, if there really would be that day. What will happen to him? Founding Father! Where can this be compared to the head of a mercenary group?!

Orsi also showed a shocked look, and then slowly replaced by fanaticism, is it possible to achieve the goal proposed by Thomson? Yes! The Tiger Mercenary Regiment of Tao is destined to be wiped out, Chris is the overseer of the Shield of Light, plus the current strength of the Grand Alliance. Orsi doesn't think defeat will be on his side. The Glory Mercenary Group suffered heavy losses in the civil strife, and when it encountered this war of the dead, it was no longer the first-level mercenary group it was at the beginning, and it was more difficult to deal with the Wind and Thunder Mercenary Group, but the relationship between An Fei and the Brotherly Alliance Mercenary Group was very good, and the alliance could completely eliminate the Wind and Thunder Mercenary Group, as for how to deal with the relationship with the Brotherly Alliance Mercenary Group in the end, it was An Fei's business. Although there are many difficulties, it is not impossible, and there are difficulties to be challenges, which he likes.

An Fei waved his hand, he didn't want to continue talking about anything on this issue: "Thomson, how many mercenaries are left in your mercenary group?"

"And more than five hundred mercenaries. In addition to my people, Raidenburg has other mercenary groups, and the number of mercenaries is about three hundred, and they have joined the Grand Alliance. I've already talked to them, some of the mercenaries are very happy, and many of them have never given me an accurate answer. ”

"What are you going to do?" asked Anfei softly, his meaning obvious. He wasn't prepared to intervene on the question of what to do with those mercenaries, leaving it to Thomson. Of course, this can also be regarded as a test of ability.

"The mercenaries who don't want to join the Grand Alliance are no longer eligible to stay in Redenburg, and now that Reddenburg has become a military powerhouse, they must leave in order to ensure that our secrets are not leaked. Thomson replied slowly, "They can take their weapons with them, but the weapons and other things must be left behind." ”

"It's no different than killing them. Orsi smiled: "There are still a large number of undead creatures around Raidenburg, and it would be good if they could survive two or three days if there was no food, let alone breaking out." ”

"It's none of my business. Thomson said lightly: "It's not that I'm ruthless, sir, look at my skinny appearance now, I haven't eaten for many days, if the reinforcements arrive a few days later, maybe they will kill me directly, because my appearance is not much different from a skeleton, our food is very scarce, why should we give it to them?"

"The army has brought a lot of baggage, and now food is not a problem, is it?" asked Bravey in surprise.

"They're not mercenaries of the Grand Alliance, why should they reach out to the army?"

"Don't push people too hard. An Fei said softly: "Now that the Grand Knight of Fernando has been trying to win over the mercenaries, if you push them too hard, they will instead defect to Fernando." ”

"yes. Chris nodded: "If Fernando is in charge of them, it's useless for you to threaten them with food or anything." ”

Thomson was silent for a moment and replied, "They won't have a chance. ”

An Fei was silent, he could hear what Thomson meant, of course the dead would not have a chance, but now the opponent of the human race is the necromancer, killing each other for something, it is inevitable that people will be criticized, not to mention that there are so many mercenaries under his command, what will they think?

"Adults are always bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, and many times we have to be tougher. Thomson said slowly: "My lord, we still have more than a dozen towns waiting for support in front of us, if we let those mercenaries go unchecked, people will think that those who have not joined the big league can live well, why do they have to take refuge? ”

Thomson has a point. Orsi nodded: "The mercenaries originally advocated freedom, and the mercenary group was established just to help each other, and what binds everyone together is obligation rather than discipline, and those small mercenary groups often have mercenaries join or quit, and the head of the group cannot interfere with the freedom of the mercenaries, but the management of large mercenary groups is very strict, so they can't mess around." ”

"That's right. Simpera continued: "My lord, all the mercenaries know that if they join the fourth-level mercenary group, they will get more convenience and greater benefits

Not many people want to join them. The mercenaries who roam alone are free and willing to be restrained. For other small and medium-sized mercenary groups, when it comes to choosing between independence and benefit, they usually choose the former, such as the former Ground Rose Mercenary Group. The four major mercenary groups have approached me and asked me to join them, but I have resolutely refused their invitations every time. ”

"They've looked for me, too. Orsi smiled: "If the mercenaries were so easy to accept the invitation, there would be no small and medium-sized mercenary groups in the mercenary country now." ”

"It's not okay for adults to talk to them and discuss with them. Ozgüch continued: "The weaker your attitude is, the more tricky and tricky they will be, and the more you will be in favor of Thomson's opinion!"

An Fei glanced around, except for the three elders such as Chris and Ryska, who did not express their opinions. The attitude of the other regiment commanders was very clear. From the point of view of Chris and others, they received an orthodox education, and the national concept was very strong, and if the Maao Empire was invaded, they would never want to see cannibalism unfold internally, so they did not express their support. No objections were expressed. And Ozgüch and these people look at the problem from different angles, not to mention the ultimate ideal expounded by Thomson, they have been stimulated, and every country's founding monarch has come from iron and blood, and if they want to create a new situation, of course, they need ruthless means. They don't think it's a big deal.

"My lord, if we don't do this, the scale of the conflict will only be bigger, and there will only be more deaths, do you know how I managed to hold Raidenburg?" Thomson sighed lightly, "Let's be honest. When we were under siege, I had divided all the earthlings into two kinds, one of which could fight. One was that I couldn't fight, and I gave most of my food to the fighters, and those who couldn't...... I only gave them very little food, and in the end I didn't even give them anything, let them starve to death, and if they tried to resist, I would kill them on the spot! I know that many people behind my back scolded me for being cold-blooded, and some people were still cursing me before they died, but I also knew that if I had been a little merciful, Raidenburg would have been conquered by the undead creatures a long time ago, and none of us would have survived, so I don't regret it!"

An Fei nodded slowly and looked up at Thomson, "Are you sure you won't make a mess?"

"Leave it to me, sir. Thomson smiled and stood up: "During the time when Raidenburg was fighting the undead creatures, there were often people who questioned my command and even tried to kill me, but they were the ones who were killed in the end. ”

"Sit down first, don't worry, the matter hasn't been discussed yet. An Fei stretched out his hand and beckoned down: "Chris listened to Fernando today...... Do you want us to go and support the beleaguered towns in front of us?"

"It's not just us, Fernando will give us some knights and priests of light, and give us some infantry to increase our combat effectiveness. ”

"How many roads will it break?"

"The forces are too scattered, which will bring us the danger of being broken by each other, and I guess Fernando's final choice is to divide into two roads as in the previous plan, and the city of Shukran and the town of Madrid are exactly the same distance from us. ”

"Who's in charge?"

"This ...... Fernando hasn't decided yet, those knights of light and priests think that they should command the army, Fernando's idea is very practical, who can rescue the city of Shukran and the town of Madrid faster and more effectively, then who will command Fernando, what he cares about is how to end the chaos and completely eliminate the undead creatures of the mercenary country, so I guess he will most likely hand over the appointment of the commander of the two armies to me, or simply to you. ”

"It seems that Fernando is a good man, but it's a pity......"

"I've been in contact with Fernando a lot these days, and he has a long-term vision, and many knights and priests of light are simply paranoid compared to him...... It's a shame indeed. Chris nodded, knowing that Fernando would be driven away sooner or later.

"If it's split into two ways, Ozgucci and Simpera, you two will be with me. Well...... It's a misfortune that Big Brother Entos went to the Brotherly Alliance Mercenary Group to find Marino. An Fei rubbed his eyebrows: "In this way, Blawy, you will leave the affairs over there with Orsi and Thomson, Bravey be vigilant, and don't let those knights and priests take advantage of you!"

Bravi was taken aback, he never expected An Fei to hand over the command to him, he was stunned for a moment and said slowly: "An Fei, don't worry, I won't let you down!"

"Orcy Thomson, you two help Blawey, if there is anything he can't take care of, you must remind him in time. Blawy, you have to be humble and open to other people's opinions, you know?"

Bravey, Orsi, and the others all nodded.

"Thomson do what you want. An Fei sighed lightly and suddenly turned to Chris: "Chris, has Alice received a letter from her side this time?" An Fei is clear about public and private, no matter how worried he is, he will not put Suzanne's matter in front of business.

"Nope. Chris said softly, "Don't worry, Uncle Ernest has already said that Suzanne will be fine." ”
