The construction of the border of Lou Pauler had already begun, and it was impossible to hide such a large project, and only the next day it spread on the border of Lebauzier, where the king was now paying attention, and the news was soon received. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

With the current relationship between the two countries, this cannot be considered a trivial matter. Regardless of the question of whether the membrane is or not, there is no doubt that the construction of the border is a military installation, where civilians cannot live and economic development is impossible. Coupled with the constant friction and conflict some time ago, is this their desire to send troops?

The king of the kingdom of Leibozier once again summoned the nobles to discuss, and these city lords' think tanks did not leave after they came some time ago. It's easy to convene at this point, but it's not so easy to really discuss what ideas you want to come up with.

Even if you send someone to ask at this time, they won't tell you anything. The king asked the lord of the border city, if the other party suddenly attacked, how sure would you be that you would be able to block it? The city lord was full of confidence, saying that the city wall on their side was strong and would not be a problem in a short time. But when I asked him what the so-called short time was, he couldn't answer, just blindly prevaricated.

This is what the king is really worried about, and every time he reports, everyone says that nothing is going on, that everything is going smoothly, that the army is strong, and that there has been no war in the near future. Some time ago, it felt good to send troops to beat a smaller country, and the king was also very relieved at that time.

But now the border guards are easily captured by the other party, and mercenaries are sent to harass them, but the mercenaries have been defeated repeatedly. The king also knew that the strength of his own mercenaries would not be too much inferior to the regular army, otherwise there would be no contradiction between the two. At that time, when attacking small countries, many mercenaries also participated in the battle, and the regular army also affirmed their strength.

Now that the mercenaries are powerless against the other side, can the regular army defeat the opponent?

"I ask you, how does our country's strength compare to that of Lou Paule?" the king could not help asking.

"Your Majesty, our country is much smaller and has a much smaller population than the other side," replied one of the city lords, "so there must be a lot less troops, and there is no way to do it." But on average, our army is definitely more elite than theirs. Each of our soldiers, on average, is bound to be slightly better than the other. ”

"Why?" the king wondered.

"They civilians have a ban on weapons, they can't even hold swords, and the most lethal thing they have ever held is an axe to chop wood. What can such civilians do when they enter the army, even if they train for a few years?" the city lord reasoned, "On the other hand, our civilians are different, our civilians have been fighting and fighting since childhood, and each of them has been licked with swords and blood, how can it be worse than a group of farmers on the other side?"

The king nodded, indicating that it was reasonable, and then asked, "Have you ever been to Lou Paule?"

The man was embarrassed for a moment, then replied, "No." ”

"Your Majesty, I've been," said another man standing up, "and it's true that there are hardly any swords on their streets, and I haven't seen a single fight on the streets, and even in the middle of the night, women and children go out at will, without fear of danger." Although their material conditions are relatively good, they obviously lack experience in fighting, and I can safely say that their civilians can't beat our civilians!"

The king frowned slightly: "Is this discrediting ourselves?"

"No, Your Majesty, I'm just stating the facts," the man continued, "I haven't seen the other side's army, but I've been in contact with a lot of mercenaries. Most of the mercenaries also had little combat experience, and according to the mercenaries, their regular army also had little combat experience, and could only use wooden swords or bows and arrows with arrows off to carry out some so-called exercises. ”

The king asked, "Do you think that their regular army is far inferior to ours in strength, except in numbers?"

The man was silent for a long time, but still replied: "Yes, in terms of average strength, it is definitely so. It's just that occasionally they will have a few masters, such as the Sword Master or something, hiding in the frontier and scaring the mercenaries, and they don't dare to really fight. ”

"That makes sense," a thinker on the side echoed, "Most of the mercenaries are afraid of death, so they use the rules of heads-up." Single-handedly defeated, they ran away. And if we have a shot from the military, it is different. In addition, the so-called frozen husky is obviously a master who deliberately pretends to be a 'husky' to achieve the purpose of making people scary. ”

The king replied, "But I have seen their army parade, and the quality of their fighting spirit is still quite strong. I was impressed. ”

"Anyone can do a façade project well, it's nothing," replied the thinker, "and the vindictive spirit can even change color with special effects, and the review is just a performance." Your Majesty went, and naturally the other party was already fully prepared. ”

The king nodded, and then asked, "So what are we supposed to do at the moment?"

"Your Majesty, I think what we have to do now is to wait and see what happens. Our border guards are still in the hands of the other side, and it has not yet reached the point of a stalemate and a war, and it is not appropriate to station troops on the border. "The think tank seems to be saying a bunch of nonsense.

"Your Majesty, if not, they will repair the border, and we will repair it. Everyone does the same thing, then it's no problem. "There's a think tank that pops up.

The border city lord hurriedly excused himself: "I'm afraid that this border repair will be difficult at the time." The environment is too harsh, the funds required are bound to be huge, and there is no need to station a few soldiers. On the other side is just some big country plots, doing face-saving projects, wasting financial resources, let's not follow this kind of thing, right?"

"But at the moment, the border post has been vacant, and after the guards were captured, there was no one there. Another retorted.

The king was surprised: "Could it be that if the guards are caught, no one can arrange for anyone to guard the border?"

Everyone was stunned, and then fell silent.

The king stood up, his face displeased: "Who is the lieutenant general over there?"

Everyone was still silent, looking around the room, no one knew what the name of the lieutenant was. The city lords and nobles all don't care about me, even if the border city lord and the guard general are in the same city, they only know the guard himself, and they don't know his deputy generals at all, and they themselves belong to two systems.

The thinker on the side hurriedly went to find the relevant documents, and the king waved his hand: "Okay, no need." ”

"I always feel that I stay here, there are too many things I can't see, whether the military strength of Lou Baole is strong or weak, so let me go to the border in person to see clearly. The king clenched his hands into fists and made the next decision.

Everyone below was stunned, and the border city lord subconsciously stepped forward to object: "Your Majesty, the border place is very cold, the road is far away, I'm afraid it will ......"

"Why, where are you afraid that I will die?" the king sneered. The king is in the prime of life, around fifty years old, a sixth-order warrior, and his strength is not top-notch, but he is not a person who can't stand even a little bump and cold.

"Your Majesty, why don't you ask...... The meaning of the veteran of the empire. The city lord reminded.

The king glanced at him angrily, and then looked into the distance: "No need, I'm not sending troops, I'm just inspecting." ”

The crowd stopped talking nonsense, and there was no reason for the king to stop him from inspecting. The king raised his hand and waved his hand, and ordered on the spot: "Come on, prepare a carriage for me, inform the personal guards, order 100 people, and set off with me!"

After the king finished speaking, he went straight out. Everyone was shocked, and one of the wise men hurriedly tried to stop it: "Your Majesty, are you ......?"

The king kicked him and threw him to the ground: "You dare to stop me?"

"Your Majesty!" the think tank was kicked over, and hurriedly turned over and lay on the ground, "You bring so many personal guards, do you also want to challenge the frozen huskies?"

The king sneered, "What?

"The Frozen Husky is just a clown, and Your Majesty doesn't have to take him to heart," replied the Thinker, "and, if Your Majesty is also abused by the Husky, then ......"

The king kicked out again, interrupting the man's dissuasion, and went out with a cold snort. Everyone in the hall couldn't help but look at each other in embarrassment, and the king suddenly went out in a frenzy, and everyone was not prepared for a while. The border city lord suddenly remembered that His Majesty was visiting his own main city, and no matter how he said it, he had to lead the way or something.

Immediately, he hurriedly chased him out, shouting: "Your Majesty, I will accompany and lead the way." ”

When the others saw it, they remembered that they didn't seem to be fine. This time, His Majesty was almost a "royal conquest in person", so how could he not follow him? They all immediately hurried out.

The nobles had some strength, and they caught up with the king in a moment. At this time, the king was still waiting for the guards to gather their manpower, and when he saw them coming, he couldn't help but smile: "What?

"Uh......" Everyone was embarrassed, and they didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Let's go," the king didn't tease much, "we don't plan to reveal our identities this time, so we're going to go as mercenaries or even barbarians." There should be a lot of these at the border recently, and they are almost used to it, and they will not suspect us. ”

"Your Majesty," the captain of the guard saluted, "100 people, the number has been counted." 20 Tier 6 masters, 80 Tier 5 masters. Your Majesty, please, instruct. ”

The king nodded, stepped into the carriage, and waved his hand: "Let's go!
