After reading the order, De Lassel felt that the king's action was reasonable. After all, launching a war without any reason would inevitably lead to dissatisfaction and intervention from other kingdoms.
The continent of Calradia is divided into several countries. If the Kingdom of Swadia annexes the remaining countries one by one, it will unify the world sooner or later.
Therefore, when the Kingdom of Swadia takes the initiative to attack the Nords, the other kingdoms will certainly be watching covetously. They cannot let Swadia dominate alone, otherwise they will fall into its hands sooner or later.
But after King Harlaus X's actions, Swadia became a legitimate and righteous army, fighting for its own honor and reputation, and it was not easy for others to rush in and take a share of the pie.
Additional reward: Wisdom +1, you have thought it through and considered it comprehensively. That's right, the old ones are the wisest. Don't underestimate the political tactics of King Harlaus X.
Yes, I know. Thank you, System. We should take a rest today. We will set out again tomorrow morning...
Thinking about this, Russell gradually felt tired and sleepy, and fell asleep next to Arthur.
But this night was quite tiring. Arthur drank too much and vomited, and then he used his strong arms and thighs to hold down Russell so tightly that the Baron almost suffocated.
I never thought that I would not die on the battlefield, but almost suffocate to death on the bed, and was firmly held down by a man. The scene was so beautiful...
During this time, the Baron thought about pushing his hands and legs away, but they were too heavy. In addition, the Baron himself had drunk a lot of wine, so he was not strong enough, and finally he could only let him crush him.
At night, De La Serre couldn't help but wail:
"I didn't starve to death during the past three years of natural disasters, nor did I die from earthquakes, nor did I get swept into the sea by tsunamis. I've survived everything! Am I going to be crushed to death by a man today..."
After a nightmarish night, when he woke up at breakfast, De Lassel felt that his fatigue had not dissipated at all, but became even more painful.
He glanced at the fat blond man who was still lying like a dead pig, and complained, "Arthur, just wait..."
After a simple wash and dressing, the baron came out.
He opened the door and started to enjoy breakfast. While eating, he instructed Old Ao to prepare a carriage, throw Arthur on it, and drag him back to Nord.
According to the third step of his plan, when Arthur woke up from his hangover, he would tell him that he had drunk too much and was drunk, so he killed his golden rooster to liven up the atmosphere.
I also had chicken soup, which fulfilled my dream of eating golden chicken.
But it seems that this fat guy won't wake up for a while, so we can only carry out the fourth step first, drag him back to his hometown and make long-term plans.
At this time, Safiya also woke up and had breakfast. She asked, "Baron, I heard the horn last night, but there seemed to be no movement in the town, so I didn't get up to ask you, what happened?"
"Nothing, we just started a war with the Nord Kingdom. The king ordered us to go out and defeat and capture an enemy lord and bring him back to collect the reward."
"Start a war, shouldn't we use gongs and drums to start a war? I remember that the last time the Khergit Khanate attacked us, they used drums!"
De La Serre rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "My lovely Princess Safiya, you are so simple-minded. If everyone uses instruments with the same rhythm, won't the enemy understand your intentions?"
"Well, they understand! We are going to fight them anyway, and since our main force has gone there, they will definitely know what we mean. Are we going there to eat?"
"Well, each kingdom is good at different musical instruments, right? Maybe they like to play gongs and drums, and we like to blow horns and trumpets. Besides, is this important?"
"I don't care! Anyway, I think unification is good! Are you going to talk back to me again?" After saying that, Safiya made a gesture as if she was going to twist his ears.
Thinking of the irritating pain of his ears being twisted into a knot, the baron immediately admitted his mistake: "I won't argue anymore. I was wrong. That's right, we should unify! Next time I'll tell the king that we'll use gongs and drums, too!"
Although he replied like this, the Baron was very dissatisfied in his heart. Damn, you are a savage woman! Can you learn to be gentler
The customs and habits of the kingdoms should be divided into several categories according to their characteristics and differences!
After cursing in his heart, De La Ser felt relieved.
After taking too much, he let out a long sigh and started eating breakfast with a smile on his face.
"So what are we going to do next? Lead the troops to fight, and go to Nord again? I really want to fight. Last time, Ryan and I cooperated well in the air. Do you remember how well? Do you remember~"
"Yes, I remember."
"What do you remember?"
"I just remember it. No... well, anyway, I remember it." De Lassel said perfunctorily while eating.
“You… you!”
“Ah! It hurts, it hurts!”
In the end, De Lassel was grabbed by the ear by the furious Safiya, which was heartbreaking.
After a moment, De La Serre covered his red and hot ears and said aggrievedly: "Let's go to Arthur's territory first, and then go to war on the way back."
Safiya couldn't help but feel puzzled and asked, "Why?"
"Because Arthur is a burden, it's hard to start a war with others. We can only take a long way to Arthur's territory, Shanmu Castle and Shanmu Village first."
"Well, I didn't expect you to be so caring towards your brothers."
"Of course, don't worry, Safiya. I remember all the grudges against Owens and the others. I will catch that damned Yan sooner or later and let you slaughter him."
System prompt: Your friendship with Safiya +2, current friendship is 50.
Comment: This time you finally understood what Safiya meant. It’s not easy. Keep it up.
Next, the group got ready and took Arthur to Shanmu Castle and Shanmu Village.
There are currently 45 level 2 Swadian soldiers in the army, led by Safiya, and 3 level 5 Swadian Iron Knights, led by Xiao Ming.
In addition, in order to increase his strength, the Baron also brought the jailer Bolcha with him, and left four level 2 Swadian soldiers to guard the town.
So there are a total of 41 Swadian soldiers, 3 Swadian Iron Knights, as well as Safia, Ryan, and Bolcha.
Since his kingdom was the active attacker and Uxhall was relatively far away from the Nord Kingdom, the baron was relieved that the enemy would not attack his territory for a while.
