Chapter 70: March

85_85536 "What are you doing?" Charlumie, who was pulled forward by William, was very unhappy. It wasn't just because William was holding her hand and it hurt her. What's more, William's near-panicked appearance made her feel very shameless.

“...... It's nothing. Naturally, William couldn't tell Charlumi that he had just felt too much pressure when facing that priest. So I was so scruples that I didn't want to stay there. Compared with hurrying quickly, it is shameless to say this. However, since it was Charlumi who asked this, William was afraid that she would suffer because she would have no experience in facing this priest Peter in the future. So after getting into the carriage, William considered the vocabulary and told Charlumie about it:

"This man is not ordinary. William said to Charlotine: "I feel a lot of pressure on him. After saying this, William paused, and then, in order to strengthen his tone and make Charlumi really take the matter seriously, he added: "I have only seen this kind of pressure in my father. ”

"Is it stressed? why don't I feel it?" heard William say this, and Charlumi felt inexplicable. And I didn't feel it when I heard Xia Lumi say so inexplicably. William's heart throbbed violently - yes, Charlumi had known this guy longer than he did. But Charlumi didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this guy.

That being the case, there are only two possibilities. One is that this man is an impostor. The real Father Peter has been killed by him. Another possibility is that this guy has a different attitude towards himself.

Thinking of this, William felt a little distracted - yes, he had a big secret in himself. Even his own father, Baron Otto, did not say it. He wanted to keep this secret in his heart for the rest of his life. But......

"Does this magic stick have the ability to read what is in my mind?" thought to William. And seeing that William stopped talking all of a sudden, Charlumie was also a little scared. She wanted to say something. But in the end, there was still no opening. Just took William's arm and looked at him.

It wasn't until a while later, when the carriage was bumped by a pothole in the road, that William woke up suddenly. Seeing Xia Lumi beside him looking at him with a pitiful look, he couldn't help but smile:

"I'm fine. William said this to Charlumi as he reached out and brushed Charlumi's hair. Then, he told Charimi: "Don't tell anyone about this. ”

"Hmm. "I still can't be completely relieved. But out of absolute trust in William, Charlumi still agreed very simply. This also made William breathe a sigh of relief. In any case, he didn't want to hurt Charumi.

Thus, over the next few days, Father Peter and his priests left the church and joined the army of William and Charlumie. Some of them joined the private army. Others joined the reservists that William had just trained, as well as the peasant soldiers.

The distribution of the work of the priests was naturally done by the church minister, Father Peter. William was just a bystander. He found that the priests did not seem to have a sense of honor. The clergy, who had been assigned to the private guard, did not appear happy. And the clergy, who had been assigned to the peasant and reserve soldiers, were certainly not discouraged or indignant.

All the priests calmly accepted the assignment of Father Peter.

And after accepting the assignment, the priests also worked hard and seriously. They proclaimed the will of the Lord of Radiance among their soldiers, inspired them to fight hard, to train hard. Follow orders. At the same time, they also opened a confession room in the barracks, that is, to listen to the soldiers' confessions, complaints, and to relieve them and comfort them.

The confessional room can only accommodate one person at a time, and it is made of soundproofing materials. At the same time, there is a door panel between the priest and the confessor. You won't see what the other person looks like. So you can guarantee safety with *.

William observed the preaching of these priests. Even quietly eavesdropped on the soldiers' confessions a few times. He found that the priests were indeed satisfied. Because their preaching and confession were not mixed with private goods. There is no claim to their power with their status. There was no intention of inciting the soldiers to oppose him. On the contrary, they also spoke of William and Charlumie's authority as lords and commanders. The soldiers should obey the orders of their lords and commanders.

In their private lives, the clergy were largely identical to the soldiers. There is no specialization. What the soldiers eat, they eat. The living environment of the soldiers is the same as their living environment. When soldiers are trained, they are trained spontaneously.

William was troubled by this. If these clergymen are disobedient, they do not accept military orders. Or if he makes a mistake, then how should he be disciplined. He also asked Father Peter about this. Peter's answer was that William could discipline these people.

"If you go to heaven, you should obey the laws of heaven. But we are still in the human world, and as a lord, you are naturally qualified to discipline them. This is what Peter had to say. This made William feel very satisfied. So much so that he ignored the priest's intention, intentionally or unintentionally, to exclude Shalumi and treat him as the lord of the Count of Chersk.

However, in the end, during the time that the priests joined in, William did not find an opportunity for him to discipline them. All the priests were obedient. When I was receiving military training, I didn't complain about being tired or asking questions. If it weren't for the fact that he had heard the clergy preach before, and knew that these people were people with good brains, sufficient knowledge, cultivation, and learning, William might have regarded them as two fools from the countryside......

That's it, thanks to the addition of these chaplains. The morale of the soldiers is constantly increasing. Motivation for training, as well as obedience to William's orders, also increased. William was very pleased with this. It even produced:

"If that's really the case, it seems like a good thing to keep such a military priest. "Feelings.

But even so, William didn't forget one thing. That's the tremendous pressure that Father Peter put on him in the church. At the same time, the harder these people worked, the stranger William became.

He is not a great nobleman, and he is not their top boss. There is nothing that can be done to make them feel excited. In such a situation, the harder they work, the more strange it seems. William doesn't think he has the ability to shake the body of a tiger and make people bow down. The more these people are like this, the more uneasy he becomes, and the more he feels that they have a conspiracy.

If these chaplains were insignificant, then William would have only had to chase them away. But the problem is that they work hard, obey orders, and don't say anything they shouldn't say.

Soldiers - whether they are private guards, reservists, peasants. They have gradually adapted to the existence of these chaplains. If they were driven away in such a situation, the blow to the morale of their own army would be extremely severe.

Seeing that the army has packed its luggage and baggage, it is about to go to war with the rebellious army. To do such a thing in this situation, William naturally couldn't be so stupid.

So, William felt that he should have a good conversation with Father Peter. Let's talk about it. If he wanted William to do something, what benefits he wanted to exchange. If it wasn't too strict, William would do it for him. If not, the two sides will get together and disperse. Talk about it. It's much stronger than holding all the doubts in my heart right now.

It's just that what makes William feel very depressed. Father Peter simply stopped talking to him - that wasn't to say that Father Peter would avoid him and not see him. Rather, as soon as William had the intention of questioning him, Father Peter would speak of him left and right.

If it was a person with poor speech skills who changed the subject so bluntly, William would have been annoyed for a long time. But he is a learned, knowledgeable and talker. Under his guidance, the topic quickly changed to other places.

William himself was unaware of this, but would have talked happily with him - this priest had a lot of knowledge and knowledge. Say what you say. Naturally, William would not dislike to hear it. And when the time was enough, the conversation was over, and the priest had left, William suddenly woke up to the fact that he had just been led by the other party.

This upset William. Very unpleasant. So he simply was not polite or polite. Ask Peter directly. This time, Father Peter could not have said anything else - of course, that did not mean that he would answer the question honestly. Rather, he used procrastination:

"When this battle is over, I'll tell you what you want to know. Father Peter replied. When William asked him again, he shook his head, refusing to speak anyway.

If he is like this, William will naturally not be able to force him anymore. Just let him reassure him that he would have to tell him "after this battle is over." No other excuses can be found. Father Peter smiled and nodded, and did not say anything else......
