047 "Witty" Dios
Unlike the Holy Alliance's loose military system, the Snowton Empire's army was more formal and rigorous.
Each county or viscount or higher in the country has its own garrison and reserve troops, and then several counties are divided into the same theater according to the trend of the mountains and rivers. The theater has a more powerful force, which is enough to ensure the suppression of the military strength of the counties, especially in the border zone, where the army is often calculated in units of 10,000, well-equipped, harshly trained, and extremely powerful.
On top of this, the Snowton Empire also has several mobile legions. The Mobile Legion is mainly composed of several fast-moving pure knightly troops, who can quickly support the battlefield thousands of miles away in just a few days, and are the emergency force of the Snowton Empire. Nacini's "Purple Electric Light Cavalry" was part of the Mobile Legion.
In addition, the Snowton Empire also organized a formed army of magicians and highly specialized legions such as engineering and baggage to deal with various complex war situations.
At the last time, the Vanuna Directly Administered Theater of Operations, where the capital is located, also has a Janissary Guard force of nearly 100,000 people, with combat strength comparable to that of the mobile corps, mainly heavy armored infantry who are very good at defense, and can ensure that Vanuna City can be held for more than three months under the siege of several times the enemy.
The person in front of him is the leader of the Praetorian Guard, the high-ranking warrior, the "Earth Splitter" Finn.
"Your Royal Highness, is there anything you have summoned me for?" he bowed slightly, a little puzzled.
Unlike other generals, Finn "The Ripper" did not choose a side between Jonas and Nacini. As we all know, he and the Thunder King are comrades-in-arms who share life and death, and they are loyal to him, although their ability to govern the army is average, they will never waver. The Thunder King put him in control of the Praetorian Guard, and that's what it is.
Therefore, both princes showed him enough respect, but did not try to win him over, because it must have been in vain. Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the official office today, he received an appointment with Jonas and hurried over.
"That's right, my father has put me in charge of the preparations for the 'Victory Day Celebration', and some changes will be made to some areas of the 'Valhalla', which will require the cooperation of the Praetorian Guard troops guarding the place. Jonas pulled Finn aside in a chair.
"No problem," Finn breathed a sigh of relief, "I'll inform the guards, but ask Your Highness to urge the craftsmen to work as soon as possible, and the changed area may need to be re-established to keep the patrol in control." β
"Of course," Jonas nodded, "if all the guards can be evacuated to the perimeter of the square, the construction will be completed in three days." β
"I'll do it right away. Finn nodded, got up and bowed and left the palace.
"Hey, Uncle Finnβ" Not long after he walked out, Finn suddenly heard someone shouting next to him, and when he looked up, he couldn't help laughing,
"Nacini, what are you doing here?"
Although he did not choose a side, for this brave and warlike young prince, Finn really treated him as a nephew in his heart.
Nacini, with long blond hair, jumped off his horse and strode over, his smile full of joy. When he was a child, he was both respectful and afraid of this strict martial arts teacher, but now when he sees such an elder, his heart is full of warmth.
"My father summoned me. He pointed to the north, a wide road lined with the royal court's offices, and at the end was the palace of the Thunder King.
"Didn't Althea come with you?" Finn laughed.
"I was afraid of danger, so I didn't bring her and left her in my grandfather's territory......" Nacini whispered, shaking her head.
"What's the danger," Finn laughed, Nacini's grandfather, who was Aithea's grandfather, was Finn's old boss. He patted Nacini on the shoulder, "No matter what happens, as long as I am here on this acre of land, I will not allow others to harm the king, you and little Athea." β
"If we can bring the Praetorian Guard commander over, the success rate will increase to 90 percent," Inedir turned from behind the curtain, "Is there really no way?"
"He didn't fall to Nacchini, it's already the result of everything I did. Jonas shook his head in distress, "Do you want to personally guide the layout of 'Valhalla Square'?"
"My goal is too obvious," Innedil sat down casually, pressing a note against the table, "There is a team of craftsmen at this address, you can arrange for them to be arranged." β
"Okay. Jonas rubbed his astringent eyes, and in a state of high anxiety, he had been suffering from insomnia for days.
"By the way, there is information that Allegri is taking Nacini's little cousin in the direction of Vanuna. Inedil suddenly laughed.
"Huh?" Jonas pondered for a long time before remembering who Allegri was, "does that have any effect on our actions?"
"Of course," Innedir laughed, "he's going to make our Demon Hunter Blade even harder. β
Since the "Silver Dragon Elixir Incident", Dios has developed a bad habit. Every time he eats and drinks, he has to carefully check the condition of the food and drink, so carefully and the steps are so tedious that by the time he has finished his examination, the others have often finished eating and drinking and are gone.
"Isn't this hard, Dios?" Allegri couldn't stand it.
"To be on the safe side. Dios glanced at him and went on working.
"How about I teach you an easy way?"
"Huh?" Dios replied casually.
"You just have to wait for Illo to take every bite and grab the food, and there will be no danger. Watching Illo get up to get food, Allegri grinned and whispered.
"It's a little disgusting, but ...... It seems to be doable. Dios frowned and thought for a while, but still agreed.
"What do you think I'm doing?" Illo came back with food, only to find that all three of them were looking at him with blazing eyes, which made him feel furious, "You drugged me in my drink?"
He pushed the cautious drink aside, and as soon as he took the first bite, the pancake in his hand was snatched away by Dios, who was ready to go, and ate it in a big gulp.
Facing a dazed Illo, Allegri and Althea couldn't help but laugh.
"You're so bad, you have such a bad idea...... "Althea almost squirted out her drink, patting Allegri on the shoulder and giggling.
"Huh?" Dios suddenly gasped, stopped gobbling up, and put the remaining half of the pancake in front of his eyes to take a closer look, "What are these powders?"
"Cumin. The confused look on Illo's face faded like a mask, and he smiled.
"Why doesn't it feel like ......," Dios subconsciously touched his stomach.
"Because there are some other additives," said Illo, taking a sip of his drink, and grinning, "don't you know that the elves can hear the chicks of two mosquitoes ten pace......s away?"
"What the hell did you put it in?" Dios's face suddenly changed, and he covered his stomach.
"Laxatives, ahaβhuh?" Illo's smug hada laughed suddenly, and subconsciously glanced at the drink in the cup, "This tastes ......"
He also covered his stomach, which was starting to cramp, gritted his teeth and said, "You really put medicine in the drink?"
"You have good ears, but you still have eyes on the back of your head?" "I don't hesitate to fall into your trap just so that you can try this too, this is the 'bitter meat trick', you know?" Dios was in abdominal pain, but his face was full of color. "Papapa", Allegri and Althea next to him applaud Dios's wit.
"Ha Lu Ha ......" blinked, looking at Dios, who was full of pain but full of the pleasure of revenge, Illo laughed loudly again. In the disbelief of the three of them, he spit the unswallowed drink on the ground and smiled,
"I'm sorry, guys, but I can now activate some of the 'Sensitive Touch' abilities with my eyes open. β
"Damn!" Dios roared and charged towards the toilet. (Double update is over, starting tomorrow, the update will be increased in advance, thank you)
