Outside the Sigh Canyon, the Frost Thunder Legion camp.

Grand Duke Palmer smiled, turned his head and instructed the lieutenant beside him, "Arrange a banquet, I want to give Shino the wind, His Majesty Strach's commendation order this time also specifically mentioned my Frost Thunder Legion, it's all the work of Shino!"

Shino bowed down and stood under the tent, "The Grand Duke has won the prize, this battle is all thanks to my Frost Thunder Legion soldiers who are all vying to be the first and bravely killing the enemy, and I, Shino, have not even moved a finger on horseback, which can be regarded as a credit for nothing." ”

"Hmph, it's quite self-aware, and you can pick up a credit for cleaning up the battlefield on the periphery, what's there to be proud of?" a discordant voice suddenly floated out.

Although the voice was not loud, all the high-level martial artists in the camp tent naturally listened to these two sentences word for word, and the atmosphere in the camp tent suddenly stagnated.

Archduke Palmer's brow furrowed, and his gaze slowly turned to the Grand Duke's own nephew, Ciro Palmer.

Sino took the lead and said: "What Prince Xiluo said is right, I, Sino, is indeed a battle exploit for nothing, but there are also four or five thousand orcs at the head level if you put it together." I heard that Elliot has already led an army of orcs into the country, so please ask Prince Ciro to lead his troops to pick up four or five thousand orc heads in front of the battle. ”

All the eyes in the camp turned to Ciro, and Shino's words were so ruthless that he was roasted on the fire, depending on whether he dared to take it.

Ciro almost wanted to open his mouth, but in the end he didn't dare to say anything else. Lion King Eliot's menacing army of 300,000 orcs, if anyone dares to lead his troops to crash into it now, it is equivalent to sending him into the tiger's mouth to find death.

The second son of the Grand Duke, the deputy commander of the legion, Aemond, glared at Ciro and took the initiative to take the words, "Soldiers regard obedience as their duty, not short-term bravery, if the legion commander has a military order, General Ciro will definitely be the first to lead his troops to fight against the orcs." ”

It was still Aemond who kicked the ball to the Grand Duke of Palmer with a single word. He knew in his heart that even if he really started a war with the orcs, his father would not rest assured that Ciro would lead his troops to fight.

"The army has always encouraged soldiers to compete for military merit, but to fight for military merit should go to the battlefield rather than in the commander's tent, and my father does not want to hear someone say cool things in the commander's tent in the future. Archduke Palmer rebuked without naming him, and the matter was ready to turn the page.

Sino didn't prepare to turn the page, he stepped forward and continued: "Grand Duke, I have rarely had the opportunity to contact the soldiers before, and this time I led the soldiers to talk more with the soldiers below, and found that the soldiers complained a lot, I don't know if to talk about it or not?"

Grand Duke Palmer was slightly stunned, knowing that this matter might be a big trouble today, but he couldn't stop Shino in front of the generals in the account, so he had to give Shino a look first, and then said lightly: "Because the generals must be sympathetic to the suffering of the soldiers below, if the soldiers have any complaints, you can just say it." ”

"It's not a big deal, the soldiers just complain that the food is worse than before, the japonica rice is mixed with brown rice, and the quality of the equipment sent down seems to be much worse than before. ”

Shino seemed to be talking about a trivial matter, but after he finished speaking, it seemed that a cold wind was blowing in the camp, and the atmosphere instantly became solemn, especially the face of the Grand Duke Palmer on the handsome chair was as if a layer of frost was hanging.

The military accounts are all generals who lead the troops, and they are like mirrors in their hearts, what Shino said is not a trivial matter of poor quality of food and equipment, if what he said is true, it means that someone has reached out in the supply of military supplies.

Embezzlement of military salaries and military funds is a major crime in the army, and no matter who you are, you will lose your head.

Grand Duke Palmer looked at Aemond with a cold gaze, "You have always been in charge of military supplies and logistics, right?"

Aemond also said with a cold face: "I will definitely go down to investigate, if anyone dares to do anything in it, it will be severely punished!"

"I'm afraid it's a thief?" someone in the queue suddenly interjected.

"What do you mean, Conrad, if there is evidence, show it, otherwise the nonsense in the military tent should be dealt with by military law. Aemond's angry gaze was fixed on a tall, thin young general behind him.

This person is none other than the Grand Duke's third son, Conrad, who is currently the commander of the rear army in the Frost Thunder Legion.

Conrad met Aemond's gaze and said lightly: "Then you go down and investigate, don't find out nothing or find two to blame for the dead ghosts." ”

The Grand Duke of Palmer has four sons and two daughters, and the Grand Duke values the eldest son the most, and if there is no accident, the title and the position of Legion Commander should be passed on to the eldest son. However, the eldest son was killed in a raid by the orcs a few years ago, and the title and legion of the legion leader were suddenly left ownerless.

The Grand Duke's second son Aemond, the third son Conrad and the youngest son Todd are all likely to become heirs, so the three of them have not dared to fight openly but have been fighting in secret for several years. As the husband of the Grand Duke's eldest daughter, Gloria, Sino is regarded by the Grand Duke's three sons as potential opponents and is jointly hostile.

Sino suddenly provoked an incident this time, and Conrad couldn't help but jump out and take the initiative to attack Aemond. Because he knew that his father hated corruption the most, and if he had done the act of embezzling his own military resources with the shadow of Aemond behind him, the position of Legion Commander would never be passed to Aemond.

"Smack!" the Grand Duke slapped the table heavily, and no one dared to speak.

"Shino, you go and investigate this matter yourself, no matter who you find, you report it directly to me!"

"Yes. "Shino commanded.

"Aemond, until the matter is thoroughly investigated, all military logistics matters in the army will be temporarily handed over to Shino to be in charge. ”

"Yes. Edmund gritted his teeth and took his life.

"Loose bills. The Grand Duke threw his sleeves away in a huff.

Brothers are not in harmony, parents are worried, and a good celebration banquet finally becomes a farce.

......

In the Terran royal city of Singaluru, Straych stood on a towering boulder halfway up Mount Azaro, staring at the Praetorian Guards who had marched out of the city at the foot of the mountain.

In this war between humans and beasts, the orcs dispatched a total of 700,000 troops, and the 200,000 people of the two legions of wind, snow, frost and thunder on the northwest border alone could not resist it.

The Isaac Kingdom mobilized nationwide, not only from all over the interior of the city guards and noble private troops, but also from Tieliu and Blazing Flame, and from the Praetorian Guard Legion, forming a mixed army of 100,000 people to go to the front.

Not only that, but the Kingdom of Locke and the Kingdom of Bardos, which are bordering the Kingdom of Isaac, also supported a legion of 100,000 people each, and they are on their way.

In addition, the representative of the human race and the titular co-lord of each kingdom, the Bright Dynasty, also dispatched an imperial army of 100,000 people.

The Terrans have dispatched a total of 800,000 troops to prepare for another race war with the orcs.

"Your Majesty, there is also movement on the side of the Church of Light, and the head of the North Regiment led 30,000 Knights of Light out of the city early this morning, and the direction of the journey is also the front line. Intelligence Director Jace whispered from behind Streich.

Strachey smiled meaningfully, "The church still doesn't think this war is lively enough, so let them come in too." ”
