Eagle’s Glory

"...Please show mercy and lift the shadows in my heart, okay?"

Seeing Agron's words being so sincere and polite, Agnes knew in his heart that he had done his best to give the greatest courtesy.

She is not a small-bellied person, and since all this time, she has always admired the young man in front of her, so at this time, she is embarrassed to dwell on Agron's previous offense.

Besides, Aegron is going to start a new battle next, and he really shouldn't affect everyone for the things that have passed.

So, she silently stretched out her hand and held it with the young man's hand, silently expressing her heart.

Agron clenched her hand tightly, and after a while Agnes wanted to pull it out, but he kept holding it until after a while, he let go, then took a step back and bowed towards Agnes Farewell, "Thank you for your magnanimity, allowing me to devote myself to the cause of justice... You will see, I will achieve unmatched performance!"

"Then I wish you success." Agnes replied with a smile.

Although this smile is very reluctant, it is enough to express her mood at the moment.

Then, Aigron turned and left.

The smile on his face really came from the heart, because he had already noticed that Agnes' remaining favorable impression of him had not disappeared.

This is enough.

=============================

Just as Agron went to see Agnes, Teresa, who stayed at the port of Methoni behind, was also meeting another person.

This man was his ally, Panos-Colokotronis.

He was originally by his father's side, and after receiving an invitation from Teresa, he rushed here to meet Teresa.

After arriving at the hotel that had been requisitioned before, under the guidance of Chanel, he walked upstairs, and then in the reception room, he saw the girl who was usually reclusive.

"Nice to meet you, beautiful lady." As soon as he saw Teresa, he greeted her in fluent French.

He knew that this girl was Duke Reichstedt's "favorite princess", and that he had given him full authority to be in charge of all affairs in the rear, so in front of her, he didn't dare to put on airs at all, and instead confronted her. Showed enough respect.

As Aegron continued to victorious in his expeditions, he valued this ally more and more, so he was more polite to Teresa.

"Nice to meet you, sir." Teresa also bowed to him.

After the initial chat, the two quickly got to the point.

"I invited you to come here because I received a letter from His Highness, and he wants me to ask you for help." Teresa said very politely.

"If you need anything, please feel free to say it, as long as we can satisfy it." Panos is also a real person, he is not ambiguous at all, he directly accepts it, "We admire the hero the most, now Mr. He is leading his subordinates to shed blood for Greece, and we must do our best to help him."

"It would be great to have your words." Teresa smiled with satisfaction.

Then, she directly stated Aigron's request, "First of all, he wants you to recruit a group of sergeants from your subordinates to supplement his army, because he will have a bigger military operation next - and he hopes, Those from Mesolonghi and surrounding areas are preferred.”

Panos didn't answer immediately, but raised his eyebrows slightly.

"In other words, he wishes to attack Methorongion?"

"Yes." Teresa nodded directly.

Up to now, His Highness's actions are already on the line, so there is no need to hide it from allies.

Now he needs more cannon fodder, as well as guides who are familiar with the local conditions - if it is someone who escaped from the fall of the fortress of Methorongi, even better.

After getting confirmation, Panos first looked happy, and then hesitated a little.

"The march to Methorongion would be a good choice, but...the fortifications are strong and it's not easy to eat."

"That's why he asked you for help," Teresa replied immediately. "It is impossible to quickly resolve this war without the help of people who are familiar with the local situation. Sir, I hope you can add a blessing to His Royal Highness. force,"

"Okay." Now that he's said this, Panos-Kolokotronis can't refuse any more, "Not enough... You know, we are currently confronting the Turkish army, and we can't really tell the difference. There are many people, and I can only try to select those who are familiar with the local situation from the army and send over, there may be only a few hundred people..."

"Too little." Teresa shook her head and did not agree with this statement, "Sir, I know your difficulties, but you also have to admit that because of His Highness's assistance and restraint, the difficulties you and your father have faced. The pressure has been greatly reduced, and the more brilliant his victory, the easier it will be for you - so you should show more sincerity to your allies, both emotionally and practically."

Under Teresa's stubborn insistence, Panos could only make some concessions, "Well, since you said so, let's try our best to get more than a thousand people for him to command. This is already what we can do. I tried my best..."

Seeing what Panos said, Teresa also understood that she could only achieve this step on this issue.

So, in order not to affect the relationship between the two sides, she nodded and agreed to this condition.

"Then let's do this-"

Panoston breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then do you have any other requests?" he asked.

"One more thing." Teresa replied immediately, "To tell you the truth, since we came here, we have been trying to get in touch with the Austrian officials, and our efforts have been paid off during this period of time. It's working... In the near future, the embassy in Istanbul in Austria may send a commissioner to come over in secret to learn about the situation here, and if you are interested, you can get in touch with him together—"

Although her tone was flat, Panos was overjoyed.

Before the Turks counterattacked and the independence army was in danger, the Greeks' greatest hope was the intervention of the foreign powers. Although the situation has improved after the support of the Duke of Reichstedt, they want to shake Turkey's hundreds of years of rule. , the attitude of the European powers is still essential.

At this time, the emergence of Austria is tantamount to the true gospel.

"Of course! I'm very happy!" He didn't even think about it, and immediately agreed, "Anytime and anywhere, as long as you have a call, I will be happy to come."

"That's the best." Teresa still smiled, "but let me remind you that this matter must be kept strictly confidential at present, it is best that only your father and son know about it, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble for everyone. —”

"Of course, I understand, I understand." Panos answered repeatedly.

After a while, he recovered from his excitement, and suddenly looked suspiciously at the girl in front of him.

This "favorite princess" is not only beautiful, but also has a calm and elegant temperament, and her conversation is also relaxed. It is not like the kind of girl who simply waits for people, but it is more like she has received similar education since childhood. of people…

Then I think that she can actually have contact with the Austrian government...

Panos' pupils dilated slightly, and it was obvious that he had guessed Teresa's identity at this time.

Then, he was extremely shocked by his conjecture - if it was true, how could she do such a deviant thing?

"You're... what's your name?" he asked almost incoherently.

But even at this moment, Teresa still didn't show any words, she just smiled lightly.

"Sir, why do you have to worry about who I am? As long as the person standing here is His Highness's full authority, he is fully trusted by him, and can sign any agreement with you, isn't that enough? The others are not all Insignificant minutiae?"

"Some things are trivial, but there are some things we can't ignore..." Panos shook his head, still trying to get to the bottom of the matter, "If you are really the person I guessed, then we must act as we should. to deal with you…”

It seems that he has already guessed it all... Theresa thought.

Suddenly she felt a little funny again—perhaps they knew of her existence only because of the sensational incident of His Highness.

She was remembered by the world because of the disaster, and she believed that her name would be known to the world in a more brilliant way soon after.

Now that this is said, Teresa simply no longer hides.

"Your guess should be correct, I am indeed His Highness's fiancee." She looked at Panos calmly, "So you see, isn't it right for me to do these things for him?"

"I understand..." Panos suddenly realized, and then laughed, "Then take the liberty to ask, when will you have your wedding?"

"It depends on your efforts..." Teresa smiled slyly, "I made an agreement with His Royal Highness that once the overall situation in Greece has been decided, we will get married and decorate our wedding with the glory of this ancient civilization. "

"This is so... so admirable!" Panos bowed to her with deep admiration, "Your Highness, if you need to keep it a secret now, I will keep it for you, but I hope that one day, the whole of Greece will The people will cheer for your wedding, and I wish you and your Highness the best of luck forever."

"Thank you!" Teresa also sincerely thanked the other party.

Soon, the private meeting between the two ended, and they reached a secret agreement on these major issues to continue the friendly and cooperative relationship between the two parties.

For Teresa, she is in a very happy mood once again, she has successfully completed the work that needs to be done and added to the two people's careers.

After lunch, as usual, she began to open letters from all over the place.

The top priority is of course the letter that Aigron wrote to her. After she read it carefully, she carefully stored it in the designated box and put it together with the previous letters.

Then, she started reading other letters.

The first was a letter to her from Major Henchy, who was also on the front line.

Although she did not have close contact with the major, she was both Austrian and sent by her father, so she also had a good impression of the major, so she chose to read his letter.

The major is not a master of words, his handwriting is very scribbled, and Teresa struggles to read the content.

Then, she was stunned, and the good mood she had accumulated all day suddenly disappeared.

Although Major Henchy deliberately used euphemisms and spoke vaguely, the main space was describing what he had seen and heard, but with Teresa's mind, of course, she could see through what the major really wanted to say at a glance.

Almost at the same time as she finished reading, a surge of anger burst out of her heart, and the anger was accompanied by a "unexpected" relief.

"I knew... I knew!" She was angry and bitter, and then threw the letter back on the table, "From the beginning, this group of people has always had this idea?! Hmph? ...Otherwise, there would be such a strange thing, to let a girl come here on purpose! How shameless!"

After venting in a low voice, she bit her lip lightly, and then vented her anger on another person.

"He's such a person! I've always known it! He's so unruly, he didn't even let his aunt let go, how could he let such an opportunity go... It's in vain that I did my best to help him, but he repaid in this way. I'm... a badass who doesn't know what to do! Badass!"

After venting for a while, she finally suppressed her anger a little.

She raised her head and looked at the void in front of her. The handsome face of the young man seemed to appear in front of her like this.

How unruly is this nasty fellow? He was clearly on the front line, and he had to lead troops to fight, but he still had to find opportunities to have fun in the middle of his busy schedule.

What a lustful bastard.

And sadly, the one she loves is such a badass.

Even if she knew about this, it was still difficult for her to let go of the love in her heart, and it was even more difficult for her to let go of the little things that two people got along and slept with together.

Those are the sweetness she can remember for a lifetime.

"His Royal Highness is too lonely, so I did this..." She whispered to herself, as if giving herself an explanation.

Therefore, she was more eager than before to return to His Highness as soon as possible.

After all, the two have only been apart for such a short period of time, and this kind of thing happened. If you let it go, what will happen next?

Moreover, Teresa has no confidence in the people around His Highness. Although Major Henchy did not say it clearly, it is obvious that when His Highness did these things, the people around him did not stop him in the slightest.

From the position of being French, the people around him are happy to see it happen, and intentionally help him hide himself.

These bastards... get rid of them sooner or later.

Thinking of this, Teresa felt even more urgent.

However, no matter how urgent she was, she knew that she couldn't leave everything here and rush over immediately, otherwise it would cause too much chaos.

It has to take the time to get this sorted out first.

This is the career of the two of them, and no mistakes are allowed.

She calmed herself down, calmed herself from her anger and anxiety, and walked to the door.

"Chanel!" she called flatly.
