The group entered the general headquarters, but Clovis was the only one who followed Yang Hui into his office.

"Why did you come here yourself?" Yang Hui poured a cup of black tea and handed it to Clovis and asked.

"It's been three years, and you don't miss me at all?" Clovis asked Yang Hui resentfully.

"Stop!" A feeling of vice arose, and Yang Hui had an urge to vomit, "Don't be so ambiguous, I know your orientation is normal." ”

“…… Fuck off! ”

"Can't you just change it? Your thesaurus is meager. Yang Hui said disdainfully.

"Because I am a civilized man, unlike a vulgar man like you."

"Yes, yes, civilized little brother, at the age of 7, he knew how to go out and fool his sister, shouldn't this be a well-dressed beast?"

"You! Very good, Yang Hui, you have succeeded in provoking me, duel! ”

"You can't beat me with one hand."

"So you can only stand, and you are not allowed to fight back!"

"Am I stupid?"

"Otherwise, I'll tell Yuffie that you tricked me into bathing her when I was a child!"

"Poof~! You...... You ......" Yang Hui pointed at Clovis with trembling fingers, this guy doesn't talk about martial arts!

After playing around for a while, Clovis also returned to the topic and answered Yang Hui's question: "If it's just the fleet, Neil may not listen to you, and my [Starry] Knights will not follow, so the combat power may not be enough." ”

"Yes, it seems that you have learned a lot in the past three years." Yang Hui said with relief.

Neil is not the person arranged by Yang Hui, but a talent discovered by Clovis himself, if Clovis himself does not come, even if Neil will obey Yang Hui's orders, but it will not be completed 100%, after all, in his heart, Clovis is the most important, how to preserve his strength and return to [TEN] to continue to play for Clovis is the first priority.

and the [Starry] Knights formed by Clovis in the past three years, which is definitely not as good as Cornelia's [Rose Witch] Knights, and Yang Hui's [Nightmare] Knights are even worse, but they have also reached the middle and upper level, and they are a strong team.

The battle of the Sakura Country, Yang Hui does not plan to fight a long-term war of attrition, he intends to achieve his goal within half a month, unlike the original plot, it is not just that the Sakura Country is subdued and surrendered, the territory of Bunitalia is still only a small piece, and he intends to completely take all the areas north of Mount Fuji in half a month.

With Yang Hui's current troops, it is no problem to fight down, but there are not enough manpower to receive, manage and guard.

And the two fleets brought by Clovis just met Yang Hui's needs, but this has a premise, that is, they complete all the tasks with dedication.

There is also the [Starry] Knights brought by Clovis together, as an excellent knight order, Yang Hui's battle plan has more choices and changes.

Clovis saw these two points in mind, so he wanted to personally bring people to support, if it was him before, he would not have thought about it so much.

"Moreover, you don't know how annoying the local nobles have been in the past three years, especially the people on my mother's side." As he spoke, Clovis looked disgusted and disgusted.

Clovis is the fifth prince to hold real power, standing out among the princes and princesses, and naturally ushering in sycophants.

The nobles of Bunitalia are very shrewd, the big nobles never put their eggs in one basket, and the nobles who are not up and down and are not valued by Honezel need to find a new leader if they want to go further, and the small nobles below must also rely on one side of the force to be able to protect themselves.

So in the past three years, Clovis's governor's palace can be described as a crowd, and the threshold has been broken by the climbing aristocracy.

Generally speaking, if the prince wants to consolidate his position, he will recruit good nobles as his vassals and form an alliance of interests.

But Clovis has been influenced by Yang Hui since he was a child, and he is not interested in these nobles who are attached to the flames, and after some investigation, the nobles who are glamorous on the surface and inferior to pigs and dogs in the dark are directly rejected from the door, and the nobles who are conscientious in their duties on weekdays only gave a friendly attitude and did not explicitly accept it.

At first, this also puzzled the nobles of Bunitalia, as if Clovis could guarantee that his position would not be shaken even if he did not need them at all, which seemed completely impossible to them, after all, Clovis was far away from the core of the imperial capital, and he needed someone to help him keep an eye on the movements of the imperial court.

But now...... Clovis showed directly with his actions that he really didn't need it.

Why? Because his ally is Yang Hui, one of them is far more than the other nobles.

What? Central or nobody? Does Cornelia count?

Although Cornelia often led troops to fight in various places, she was also nominally a member of the central government.

Therefore, the nobles of the imperial capital can see clearly that the largest force in the empire is no longer the Honezel faction, but a common interest body with Cornelia, Yang Hui and Clovis as the core of the triangle.

"But you're only going to make them more entangled."

"I know, I just want to give myself a vacation." Clovis said helplessly, of course he knew that his power was greater, and it was even more impossible for those nobles to let him go, after all, compared to Cornelia and Yang Hui, he was the best person to speak.

"I can see you're working hard."

"Didn't Badr report it all to you?"

"Not Badr's debriefing." Yang Hui stood up, looked through the window at the fleet docked in the harbor, and the neat and orderly [Starry] Knights, and patted Clovis's back that had obviously become thick and strong, "These Badr won't. ”

"That's how you train." Clovis shrugged.

The training method of the [Nightmare] Knights is not a secret now, except for the Knights of the Round Table, who think highly of themselves, the elite knights of Bunitaria have all copied it, and even after the cabinet meeting saw the effect, this training method has been slightly reduced in intensity and distributed to all ordinary troops, and it has been implemented as a standard training procedure.

Now Clovis is obviously much stronger than three years ago, there is no more delicate and immature than before, more mature and heroic, the former Clovis is still a delicate literary and artistic youth, and now he is a sturdy sunny tough guy.

"Have you ever participated in actual combat?"

"Well, [TEN]'s resistance group extermination."

"Very well, come with me."

"What?"

"Are you really going to be a mascot?"

“…… Hehe, let's go. ”

If they could, who would want to be a mascot all the time? He did hand over the military power to Yang Hui, but it doesn't mean that he is really willing to be a cheerleader in the rear all the time.

Yang Hui brought Clovis, the commander-in-chief of the fleet, Neil, and the knight captain Garrett of the [Starry] Knights to the combat headquarters.

"His Royal Highness Yang Hui, His Highness Clovis."

"Debriefing."

At present, the enemy forces are mainly concentrated in the Osato Military Port and Kure Military Port, the Sakura Country fleet in the Osato Military Port is choking the Tsugaru Strait, and it is difficult for our First Fleet to maintain the deterrence of the Itsukushima base, the elite of the Itsukushima base has sent most of the support front, mainly concentrated in Iwate, Autumn and Yamagata, and the Sasebo fleet has left the Osato fleet and retreated, cruising along the line from Murakami to Shotsui, and the firepower is enough to cover Yamanashi.

The Kure fleet and the remaining Yokosuka fleet stayed in Shizuoka without any movement.

On the army side, large forces were concentrated in Aichi, Nagano, and Itsukushima, with small units using Yoshigang, Showa, Yonezawa, Oishida, and Harano as outposts. ”

"How's the situation in Hokkaido?" Yang Hui asked, now that the war has entered a calm stage, the Sakura Kingdom is unable to regain the lost territory, and Bunitalia does not have enough troops to attack more territory, and the only danger is the [Rose Witch] Knights who are fighting alone in Hokkaido.

"This morning, we have made regular contact with Her Highness Cornelia, and due to the threat of the Osato fleet, the [Rose Witch] Knights have targeted their attacks in the northern region, and have not encountered any stubborn resistance."

"Hmm...... Neil, led the [TEN] Second Fleet to Miyagi, joined up with the main force and launched an attack on the back, and within a week, cooperated with the First Fleet to take the port of Osato. ”

"......" Neil didn't agree immediately, but looked at Clovis, and after seeing Clovis nod, he replied, "Yes, your highness."

"The convoy that ordered the surrender to take Yokohama's troops to set out from Yokosuka and go straight to Shizuoka, not seeking to destroy the enemy, but to drive the Kure fleet and the Yokosuka fleet away for me!"

“Yes，your highness.”

"Yamanashi's main force is divided into a third and marches in the direction of Nagano, not too fast, as long as it attracts Yoshigang's attention, and the defenders of Tochigi are also advancing slowly, seducing Showa's gaze."

“Yes，your highness.”

"Clovis, are you going to sit here, or do you want to come with me?" Yang Hui turned his head to look at Clovis with an expectant smile on his face, Clovis's reinforcements arrived, and Bunitalia already had enough troops to destroy all the enemy forces in the northern part of the Sakura Country, and Yang Hui didn't plan to continue to be a spectator.

"With you, of course!" Clovis replied without hesitation, this is also the answer Yang Hui wants.

"No, Your Highness, it's too dangerous!" Clovis agreed, but Neil and the Knight Chief Garrett objected, they knew that Clovis had been participating in the training of the [Starry] Knights and had good combat effectiveness, but they still didn't want Clovis to risk his life.

"Okay, follow Yang Hui's orders, and you are my knights, in case of danger, it is up to you to protect me." Clovis interrupted the two with a wave of his hand, and said to them seriously.

"But ......"

"Enough, it's an order!"

“Ye…… Yes，your highness.”

Yang Hui stood aside and watched them with great interest, feeling that Neil and Garrett were not bad, at least loyal.

"Yang Hui, give the order, I can't wait." Clovis said to Yang Hui with some excitement.

Yang Hui smiled and nodded, picked up the communicator, and contacted the [Nightmare] Knights who were resting: "Rejeta, all of you are ready to attack, get my body ready." ”
