Blood Dragon

Section [-] Urgent Report

As the saying goes, "Know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles."This article is from the first post. No matter what military book it is, there is a specific explanation of this sentence.If there is a dispute in this regard, it is not that the sentence itself has been questioned, but that it has been specifically understood from different angles.

At that time, as we all know, theory belongs to theory, and reality and theory do not exactly match.Because the books are always refreshing, but there are too many things that disturb you in the real world.Robin was completely unaware of this until Baylor said it.

It's not that Baylor doesn't want to stay, but that he really can't.In this battle, although Beler wiped out more than [-]% of the Chaos army, he also suffered huge losses.It will take about two days for the reinforcements from Neustria to arrive, and if the Chaos Legion wants to, they can emerge in front of Belial anytime tomorrow.

And now the troops under the command of Belleel do not have the ability to fight against the Bloodfang Lord.Belial saw this clearly from the beginning, but Robin, immersed in the aftertaste of the battle victory, ignored it.If anything, this is the biggest difference between the two abilities.Baylor knew exactly what to do and how to do it, while Robin was vague and lacking in conception of both.

"By the way, my lord general." Robin realized his mistake and felt an uncontrollable heat on his face.The general has taught him for so long, but he still messed up the chain at the critical moment. "I heard that General Parry...is back?"

"Well, I was slightly injured, and I looked a bit embarrassed." Belle smiled, "But I finally came back alive."

Although it is a bit unexpected, in fact, the rate of death (capture) of generals who lead troops in defeated battles is really not high.It is normal for Parry to escape alive.

"He's already returned to Newsteria City," Baylor said. "The main reason why we leave tomorrow is to make a 'rear of the palace' posture." He seemed to be thinking about something, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help showing a smile.

The Chaos Legion did not come the next day.At least nothing was seen when Robin was gone.Although Robin was injured in his arm, he still insisted on completing the duties of an adjutant and was the last one in the retreating team.

As long as there is a reliable magician, the speed of magic communication is by no means comparable to other methods.Almost an hour after Baylor encountered the first team of defeated soldiers, the relevant battle situation had spread to the rear.

The conscientious chief executive of the palace quickly sent the relevant information to Prime Minister Aileen's case.A few minutes later, Prime Minister Eileen issued an order to "relevant personnel are strictly prohibited from leaking information", and then he rushed to the depths of the palace with the documents, begging to see the Queen.

The little girl has been troubled by several minor problems during this time.

In fact, after building a palace shelf, many things don't need the king to worry about it.A loyal and capable Grand Master of the Court (Skadera is undoubtedly such a person) can help the king with all the troubles of the court.A Prime Minister of great prestige and experience (Ailin, no doubt, fits the bill) would be able to help the King run the country, especially the trivial, tedious and tedious things.Now the little girl no longer cares about the appointment and dismissal of lower-level officials, financial expenditures, budget additions and other trivial matters. Such things will eventually become a small name on the report and appear on the little girl's desk case.In the end, these documents generally only leave the common comment of "read" and are stored in the archives.

Of course, if there were any special exceptions, the little girl could also believe that she could hear some rumors from Rodia.In fact, if there is an open and honest meeting, perhaps the ministers will be surprised to find that Her Majesty knows more about what is happening in the lower classes of society (especially in Falcon City) than they do.

The personnel appointment and removal problem that plagued the little queen is precisely about Essien's position.

As I said before, when Essien led five hundred soldiers on that seemingly hopeless journey, the little girl made him a duke's promise.

This promise aroused no objection from anyone at the time.On the one hand, it was because the little girl was still in the army at that time, and the ministers were not there, and the generals did not have the right to speak at this time, and on the other hand, the promise at that time seemed more like a blank check.

No one believed that Essien would conquer so many rebellious lords with five hundred troops.You must know that most of these people have historically available family pedigrees that have been established longer than Gruny himself. They are all great nobles who were conferred by the first generation of Mark Remiz himself.Hundreds of years of operation have made most of them have strong power and influence.Besides that, they almost all have strong family castles.Not to mention [-] troops, even if Essien was increased tenfold to reach [-] soldiers, it would be impossible to complete such a challenge.

However, the facts ultimately proved their big mistake and Essien's foresight.Essien obtained the first army by recruiting Byron's subordinates, and then went all the way to conquer.After his repeated victories, related rumors began to circulate.After Essien defeated several big nobles who were recognized as the most difficult to deal with, various forces began to try hard to intervene and infiltrate, wanting to get a share of such a rich feast of honor and wealth.After Essien's final victory is no longer in doubt...

The matter has become so serious that even a little girl has to seriously consider whether to change the appointment of personnel.

Indeed, the little girl can't be blamed for having such an idea.Although she is a queen, she does not live in a vacuum.The opinions and judgments of the people around her will more or less affect her.To be honest, the problem is that Essien has always been loyal to the regent Duke Byron in the past, so that now when he is with the little girl, almost no one has a good impression of him.Even the chief executive of the court, Skadra, Essien's former titular chief, didn't have any special affection for Essien.

This is also the sorrow of the king.Unless they have abnormal talents, the information they get will be limited to that report and they will not be able to see the truth of the matter.In fact, there are always some things that are easier said than done.Just as people all over the world know that the fundamental way to do business is to buy low and sell high. The basic idea is to sell local specialties in other places.But to be honest, there are really too many bankrupt businessmen in this world.

Of course, there is another thing, which has nothing to do with the identity of the queen-or it is not so closely related.That's the problem with Ashuruffat's two fiancées.

Although there was Rodia's suggestions and insinuations, there seemed to be no progress.

Of course, she is also aware of this.Those two women were not so easy to deal with.She'll need some patience - Rodia has promised her that her best spies are on the lookout.In addition, Rodia also proposed several highly practical solutions.One of those things was finding the right match to turn the two Griffin women on.According to Rodia, as soon as the two of them cheated—whether mentally or sexually—then the marriage would fail completely.Because Ashurfat is proud by nature, he will never allow such a thing.

Of course, the current trouble is that I can't find a suitable partner for a while, but this matter also requires patience.And this war, according to everyone's opinion (including Beler and Ashuruffat), will easily turn into a long-term confrontation, which means that the little girl has at least half a year to slowly plan and Look for.

In this life, the little girl is reading the report on her desk, and Luo Diya is beside her.As I said before, her ministers have helped her deal with most of the troubles, but according to the rules, even after they have dealt with the problems according to their duties, the matter still has to be reported to the queen for notification.Therefore, the number of documents on her desk is quite considerable.But it should be pointed out that even if she doesn't read these documents, it doesn't matter if they are backlogged on the desk like this.

The little girl closed a document with her hands.It's a nonentity, and it's about business taxes.Headed by Prime Minister Eileen, a large group of officials jointly proposed a tax policy for the new year.This topic has long been discussed in the imperial meeting, and the little girl also agreed, this thing is only the specific implementation method for this resolution, that is, the details.She searched for a long time, and found that she couldn't find any baskets, so she signed the word "read" with a red pen and put it on the side.

She peeked at Rodia beside her.The latter was helping her read another equally tedious document, trying to help her get to the point, or find something interesting.On the surface, Rodia was reading seriously, but the little girl could feel that Rodia was actually "pretending" to read carefully.

She has something on her mind.

Although this is an instinct without any evidence, the little girl believes that her intuition is correct.Some time ago, something must have happened to Rodia, so that she... had some inexplicable changes.

A maid hurried in from outside.She didn't stop until she was not far from the table, put her feet together and bowed to salute.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister has an urgent matter to see you."

About a minute later, Prime Minister Alyn appeared in the queen's study.Ai Linen's footsteps were hurried, his face was flushed, and his temples were slightly sweaty.This shows that he rushed over at the fastest speed just now.But even though the matter was so urgent, when he saw Rodia, Ailin couldn't help giving Rodia a vicious look.

Of course, as in the past, Rodia didn't seem to notice it, as if a speck of dust drifted past her eyes, and she didn't even bother to wave her hand to dust it off.

"What's the matter?" The little girl noticed the spark that seemed to be flashing between the two, and hurriedly spoke first to break the embarrassing tense atmosphere.

"Your Majesty, there is an urgent military report from the city of Neusteria," Ailin said after gathering his composure. "Our army is unfavorable in the first battle, and more than half of the forward troops have been lost!"

"What?!!!" The little girl and Luo Diya screamed at the same time, and they both stood up at the same time.Their movements are so consistent that it resembles a pre-rehearsed performance on the stage.

The two of them realized something was wrong after they came to their senses. They looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what to say for a while.

"It's... who is leading the vanguard?" Rodia was the first to respond after a few seconds and asked.

"General Parry," Alyn was very displeased with Rodia's question, but after all, this was in front of the Queen, so he could only answer like this.

There was a palpable look of relief on both women's faces as he said the name.The little girl looked at Luo Diya suspiciously, and sat back in her seat again.

"What's going on?" she asked. "Ambush?"

"I've already brought the specific report." Alyn replied. "General Parry was also wounded, but at least his life was not in danger. General Beler led his army to rescue and defeated the pursuing Chaos Legion, temporarily stabilizing the situation."
