"General Glahid? What are you doing here so late?" Amy rummaged in the cabin for a while, "I'm sorry, I don't have any wine here now. Do you want some cold water? Can I boil it for you?"
"No need." Glahid hesitated, "'Supreme One,' I came here this time to..."
"My name is Amy."
Amy placed a glass of cold water heavily in front of Glahid, interrupting Glahid's words.
"Okay...Amy, I have something to do here this time..."
"Let's play a game of chess." Amy slapped a chessboard on the table, "Beat me first, and then we can talk slowly."
"I'm no match for you." Glahid smiled bitterly. But seeing Amy's serious look, he could only sit down and place the chess pieces on the chessboard.
"There are many people who came to play chess with me behind the back of the King of Sweden, and most of them lost to me." Amy lay on the chair opposite Grande, tilting her head and watching Grande lay out his chess pieces, and then
Help her place the chess pieces one by one, "Grahid, since you didn't bring a gift, let me give you a hint - we have played chess before. Think carefully about what kind of opponent I am, otherwise
, you have no chance to beat me."
"It was when the King of Sweden disappeared, and then you summoned us to fight against the Alemannic Federation. I lost completely at that time." Glahid finished placing the chess pieces, and then kept his head lowered, as if he was confessing something. "
As an archer, I have always been afraid of cavalry. At that time, I subconsciously took a defensive stance. If I had been bolder, I would not have put you in danger."
"You don't need to be responsible. That was the result of my unauthorized charge. I may be considered a powerful magician, but I am not a good general. If your Majesty wants me to charge, I can do it, but if you want me to lead troops to fight, I can't. Now
Your Majesty even deliberately prevents me from using magic, so military affairs have almost nothing to do with me." Amy replied calmly, "So, if you want to give His Majesty any suggestions on military operations, it's up to you.
It would be more appropriate to pick it up."
Glahid was the attacker, and Amy was the defender. According to the rules, Glahid moved first. But Glahid was slow to move, so Amy could only grab the head of a chess piece and swing it around on the chessboard.
"It's not a military suggestion. I just want to talk about the issue of the King of Sweden's employment. Amy, you don't want the King of Sweden to be surrounded by a group of villains and liars, right?"
"Liars and scoundrels?" Amy knocked the chess piece in her hand onto the chessboard with a "pop" sound. "Grahid, I've already warned you. When you say scoundrel, you mean sneaking into me late at night."
Is this the kind of person who lives in a girl’s room?”
Glahid was shocked.
"I don't want to know who you are talking about. I don't want to guess. When it comes to contradictions, Sweden has too many conflicts. The businessmen of the island republic and the local residents have disputes every day; the students of the Alchemy School and the Engineering School dislike each other.
; You lords from England and the local lords are also divided into two factions, right? If you have any dissatisfaction, just go to the King of Sweden yourself and don't try to use my mouth. I will not stand on either side of you.
, I will always stand for Your Majesty."
"I understand." Glahid lowered his head and stood up, "I will not play this move. I am not your opponent."
"Grahid, you are a person that the King of Sweden values very much, so I have something to say to you." Amy sighed, "Put down your prejudices. The King you are loyal to now doesn't care about nationality, origin, or belief at all.
Waiting for dispensable things. Rather, she wants to unify these things under the same banner. This was her ideal when she was in the Qiqiu Empire. It still is now. I hope you can be her helper,
Rather than being a stumbling block for her."
"I will think about it carefully." Glahid lowered his head and walked backwards out of Amy's room.
The next day, Ella arranged for all three thousand soldiers in the army to line up at the port. Not long after, Dast came to everyone in high spirits. The smell of alcohol on his body was gone, and his beard was shaved off.
His hair was also carefully taken care of, making him look very handsome. People in Sweden had never seen Dast like this before, and they were all a little surprised.
"Master, you can choose any soldiers you want from all the people standing here now." Ella said, "The crowbar is in your hand, and your orders are my orders."
Dast nodded, and then shouted in front of the crowd: "Which of you are professional soldiers, and which of you are temporarily recruited? It is the discharge of professional soldiers!"
More than a thousand people came out of the crowd. Some of these people were soldiers stationed on the flying Sealander, and some were archers trained by Glahid himself. They were the backbone of Ella's expedition. They raised their heads.
of high
"Everyone, go back to the ship!" Dast waved people away, "You are not suitable for this operation!"
"Wait a minute, Master, what's going on?" Ella asked from the side, "Wouldn't it be better to use professional soldiers for such a dangerous mission?"
"If they have undergone special training, then of course it would be better to be a professional soldier. But we don't have time to train now. Professional soldiers who only know how to fight and form are not qualified for this operation."
Dast drove away the professional soldiers and shouted to the remaining people:
"Which of you were hunters before coming here? Those who have only hunted do not count. They need to be professional hunters with more than five years of hunting experience!"
A group of people came out, numbering around five or sixty people. Glahid snorted unhappily and said to himself: "Wouldn't it be better to let the hunters come out from the beginning, but we have to divide it into two steps.
"
Dast still didn't seem satisfied with the number of people.
"Too many, too many! So many people were detected by the enemy before they even started to investigate! I only need five people at most! Let's do this. I will hide in the suburbs later and find my five people first.
, just join this investigation team!"
Glahid couldn't help but ask: "Dust, are you serious?"
"I'm not drinking today!" Dust shouted, "Why, you won't let me lead the troops?"
"Since the King of Sweden has asked you to carry out this mission, I have nothing to object to. I just want to give you some advice as you have never led an army before." Glahid said, "There are only two things you need to do to complete this mission.
There are two methods: first, find the missing citizens nearby; second, go to Winchester to investigate the situation. This area is very large, five is too few, and you can’t search them all in a few days; if you want to go to Winchester,
Ste, five people are still too few, and there is no way to effectively protect yourself. You are now the overall person in charge of this reconnaissance operation, not the captain of a reconnaissance team. A team can only have five people, but you
You need to prepare at least three to ten teams, right? Let these teams disperse to search and work together, and you will be a general!"
"No, five people are completely enough for this operation - but you reminded me." Dast patted Glahid on the shoulder affectionately, "Grahid! Congratulations on being the first one selected! Five.
The levies are not strong enough in combat, so their safety depends on you!"
"Me?" Glahid was shocked, "I'm a count?"
"The King of Sweden said, I can choose whoever stands here at will." Dast deliberately showed off the crowbar in his hand, "If you don't want to go, then who asked you to stand here?"
"Well... you can be a noble, and you don't need to be a professional soldier." Dust's words made Ella on the side fall into deep thought. Suddenly, she raised her hand as if she suddenly realized, "In this case, then I am
