Chapter 259: Reorganization of the Army

Seeing that Main looked very vigilant, Sawan couldn't help but be a little amused, he poured a glass of water for Main, and then said, "Master Main doesn't need to be so nervous, and I won't make any excessive demands." I just wish the Magic Guild would give me a title like Guardian of the Church so that I could reorganize the army into the army of the Church. ”

Sahain said it lightly, but it sounded earth-shattering to Main, once Sawin reorganized the army into the army of the church, it would mean that he would continue to attack other countries in the name of the church, and the church would bear the stigma of provoking war. This made Main worry about Savan's reorganization of the army, which was too big for him to decide alone.

"Can you make me think about it, this matter is not something I can determine alone. Main said.

Sawan knew that Main was telling the truth, and this matter was indeed not something that Main could decide alone, but he was also confident that in the end, the Magic Guild would definitely agree to his request.

At the end of a day full of drama, Sawan looked at the stars in the night sky and suddenly felt unreal. In less than a year, he has gone from being an unknown person to a key figure in the situation on the entire continent, and if anyone had told him a year ago that he would become a big man in the near future, he would not have believed it even if he was killed.

Now however, he not only has a powerful army, but has also held two countries in his hands, and although both of them are small, his path has proven to be right. Next, once the army is reorganized, he will be able to use the resources of these two countries to make the army stronger.

Immediately after saying goodbye to Samhain, Main contacted the Guild through the Crystal Ball, explaining the situation and asking the Guild to hold a high-level meeting immediately to discuss Savin's request. The Magic Guild immediately agreed, and as soon as the personnel were ready, they immediately held a meeting to discuss the matter.

After the call, Main gradually calmed down, he found that the Magic Guild actually didn't have much choice in this matter, if he didn't agree to Savin's request, all the previous investment would be in vain, and in the end this matter was really difficult to end. But if he agreed to Savan's request, it would be equivalent to tying the Magic Guild to his chariot, and in the end he could only go all the way to the dark.

The more Main thought about it, the more awkward she felt, how did things become like this, this was not what the Magic Guild had envisioned in the first place. After thinking about it, Main gradually found some clues, and he was surprised to find that the reason why this incident was not from his original expectations was not with Samin, but with the Magic Guild.

"Alas...... It's all because the guild didn't think it through at the beginning, and the lack of a clear goal led to today's results. Main sighed secretly.

For the next few days, Savin was busy keeping order in Salem City, while patiently awaiting a reply from Main and Vaughn. There is not much suspense on Main's side, no matter what, the Magic Guild will definitely give him a title in the end, and Sawan is very confident in this. It's Vaughn who really can't be sure, and if he really refuses to be king, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to find the right person.

Savan's purpose in capturing Pesanis was not to plunge it into chaos, but to turn it into his own repository of resources, and a stable political situation was necessary, otherwise he would be busy putting down the rebellion all day long, and for this reason, Sawan would like Vaughn to be the king.

A few days later, Hortz at the front sent an agreement of surrender, and although the name was a peace agreement, everyone knew that this was the instrument of surrender. Sawin was overjoyed to see what he had proposed, and Hortz had firmly grasped the principles he had proposed, and both Malvez and Cicedo agreed to abdicate and henceforth be placed as dukes. At the same time, both agreed to abandon the army and keep only a minimum of guards.

With this letter, Sawan was sure how to convince Vaughn, and it turned out to be as Sawin had expected, and when Vaughn and the nobles saw the agreement, they all showed expressions of resignation except for deep sighs. Under Savan's repeated persuasion, Vaughn finally agreed to be king, and although he knew in his heart that he was probably a puppet, he reluctantly agreed in order to stabilize the situation at home.

Although the internal controversy of the Magic Guild was very fierce, under the mediation of Main, he finally agreed to Sawen's request and decided to give Sawan the title of "Guardian of the Holy Religion". Originally, the Magic Guild hoped that Sawan would become the spokesperson of the Magic Guild to show its strength, but they didn't expect it to end up being Sawen's backing for the war, which they didn't expect in the first place.

When everything was ready, Savan held a grand ceremony, which was partly for the Church to canonize him as the "Guardian of the Holy Church" and on the other hand, for the Church's coronation of Vaughn. In order to expand its influence, the Church sent invitations to many countries, but only a few delegates finally attended.

Of course, Sahain understood what was going on, and this event marked the beginning of the Church's intervention in secular royal power, and I am afraid that few kings would accept such a fact, so their resistance was justified. Sawin sneered in his heart, and in the near future he would use the iron fist of war to make the kings accept the fact that future royal power must be recognized by the church to be legitimate.

After these busy work for a month has passed, the situation in Pesanis has gradually stabilized after Vaughn ascended the throne, although the nobles will still have complaints, but no one dares to speak out under the military pressure of Savan, not to mention that due to the abdication of the king, a large area of land has become land without lords, and Vaughn can just use it to buy the nobles.

Seeing that the political situation was gradually stabilizing, Savin began to reorganize the army. Now that he has the hat of Guardian of the Holy Church, he can rightfully change the army into the army of the Church, and he has given the army an official name, the Holy Army. From then on, his army was considered to have belonged, and the main armies of the two countries were officially brought under his command, and the number of troops suddenly increased to more than 100,000.

Feeding such a large army naturally required a lot of money, and Sahain demanded that the kings of the two countries provide the army with supplies every year in proportion to the composition of the army, while guaranteeing that they would protect the security of both countries. At this time, everyone finally understood Savan's intentions, the Holy Army was actually an unprecedentedly large mercenary army, and the employers were various countries, and this employment relationship was determined by Sahain.

Hortz and the others couldn't help but marvel at Savan's political skills, and Sawin could think of such a way to maintain the independence of his army and get others to pay for him, which only he could do in the past.

However, Savan's reorganization did not stop there, he held a secret meeting at the fortress of Barreto, to which even Main was not invited, and the meeting was attended by all important generals in the army.

No one knew the content of the meeting before the meeting, and many people speculated that Samhain might be trying to reward those who had made meritorious contributions, but this could have been held in Salem, and it was not known why Samhain had set up the meeting at Barrett Fortress.

The secrecy of the meeting was so tight that the entire fortress was heavily encircled, and all unrelated personnel were driven out, and only those who had received Savin's approval could enter the heart of the fortress. Seeing that it was so solemn, everyone at the meeting couldn't help but feel a little nervous about the meeting.

On the day of the meeting, dozens of senior generals in the army came to the core fortress of the Barreto fortress under the guidance of a special person, and the newly furnished conference hall was very elegant, not at all like a military fortress, but more like a grand party.

Hortz walked into the conference hall with several of his generals, and saw that many people were already seated, and everyone stood up to greet Hortz as soon as they saw him. Now Hortz is already the second person in the army, except for Savan, who is in great power, which makes Hortz very satisfied with everything now.

When Hortz saw the dwarves Voss and Larry, Winnett and Lyanna in the conference hall, he couldn't help but be surprised, why they all came, this meeting didn't seem so simple......
