Our family is in decline

As the front army marched, Lance neither said anything encouraging nor showed up.

Although most of Hamlet's cannons were light guns like six-pound and eight-pound, while Totnes's were usually heavy guns like twelve-pound and sixteen-pound, Patton did not command so many cannons when he was in Totnes.

The quality of the troops was also different. At least the infantry and cavalry that matched them would not directly turn their strategy and run away in the middle of fighting, exposing them to the enemy.

Similarly, the enemy was not a monster with extraordinary power, but just some scattered territories. If this could not be defeated, Patton would give up and go back to farming.

Compared with the front line, it was even more difficult to sort out the territories in the rear, otherwise Lance would rather wait for good news in the city instead of following, because ordinary people could not do it.

They only needed to fight bravely on the front line, while Lance had to consider more things in the rear.

"Boss! I'm going to wail!"

"Don't wail, you're with me, I didn't ask you to go to the front."

Lance suppressed Boudica with one sentence. This guy has been very excited since the war started, so Lance took her with him to avoid making a fool of himself at home.

It's good to be a thug, after all, I'm too lazy to do it now.

"Then I think I might as well go play with the dogs..." Boudica was immediately embarrassed. How could she not know that there would be few opportunities to fight in the back.

"What did you say?" Lance stared at her, always feeling that you kid had something to say.

"I heard from Figes that those female wolves are about to give birth."

Lance knew that Figes was William's hound. When everyone was busy, she would help walk the dog every day when she was free. She didn't have much activities, and usually went to the dog training field to tease the wolves and wait for her own one.

But how can you understand dog talk? Could it be that Boudica has some extraordinary ability of animal affinity that has not been discovered?

"You've made it. Can you understand what Figes says?"

"Of course Figes and I listen to William." Boudica suddenly looked at Lance with a pitiful look and whispered, "How can people understand dog talk? Boss, your brain is not working well..."

"Shut up!" Lance went up and knocked her head. This guy was just itching for trouble.

"Ah~" Boudica complained, covering her head, "Boss, why are you hitting me?"

"I want to see if your brain is working well." Lance smiled and raised his hand to rub her red hair. You are itching for trouble, and I am itching for trouble.

But he didn't care about it. No matter how ferocious the lion is, it has to obey him.

Some time ago, the infantry had set off, and the logistics team followed. There were carts pulled by horses and carts pulled by cows. The team was stretched because there was no suitable route to deploy.

The logistics of the 3,000 troops that were not yet fully staffed required so much. Lance also understood that the hundreds of thousands of troops in history were estimated to be only 10,000 or 20,000 elite soldiers, and the rest were logistical civilians.

Otherwise, how could such a large team be maintained in the feudal era with low productivity, and how much logistics was needed?

At this time, the hundreds of people who were treated as affairs officers for intensive training had also completed the assembly. It can be felt that none of these people were over 30 years old, and there were even a few who looked like they had just reached adulthood, such as 14 or 15 years old.

Once a person's learning ability passes adolescence, it will decline because cognition is solidified, which is a dual effect of physiology and psychology.

In adolescence and youth, the ability to receive information is relatively strong. The previous basic training has completed the literacy work, and then Lance's power will instill new knowledge into them. In a short period of time, they have cognition from policies to affairs, and at least there is no need to worry about someone misunderstanding Lance's orders.

Although the entire area of ​​Hamlet is not a very large place, Lance is also afraid that "the upper level is good, but the execution is bad below" will not be able to hold it.

"Let's go, it's time for us to leave."

Lance boarded an ordinary carriage. Glyndell had been waiting inside. Boudica was driving the carriage, and she felt uncomfortable if she didn't have something to do.

The other people didn't have this treatment. They could only use the flatbed trucks that transported supplies...

Hamlet's army marched south without any concealment. Although it was early in the morning, it also alarmed many people.

In the past, they used the excuse of eliminating the cultists, and they were also doing internal operations all the way north, so not many people cared.

But now it's different. The army's goal is to the south, and there is no cult there, but a number of large and small noble territories.

Although the city had started to hype related topics before, most people didn't have the energy to pay attention to this matter when they just came out of the blood moon.

Then the cultists were caught and brought up the nobles' invasion of Hamlet again.

But when they turned around, they were attracted by another thing, and public opinion turned to the case that occurred in the school, which implicated more people.

According to the mentality of watching the excitement, everyone is of course more concerned about these things that are right in front of them, and they ignore the brief propaganda of the territorial dispute at the beginning.

I didn't expect it to be real!

For those local people in Hamlet, they all have a fanatical support attitude, and they all believe that the lord will succeed and defeat those evil nobles.

It can be said that the existence of Lance embodies their hatred for the nobles. I can't beat you, but the lord can.

Although it was said that Hamlet had specifically caught spies before, it had been such a long time, and there might not have been any lurking ones at that time.

So this situation immediately attracted the attention of those people, and they began to take action, trying to pass the news out in various ways.

But is there a possibility that there are more professional people who have been doing this kind of thing for a long time.

…

"Are you sure this is true?"

Sera looked at the arrogant woman in front of her and felt her mystery more and more. It was just a period of time since she had seen her, so why could she become more and more invisible to her?

"Everyone knows this. Those nobles who dare to mix with the cultists and provoke the lord are simply seeking death."

Amanda's mouth was full of disdain for those so-called noble lords, but it wasn't that she was as fanatical as those ordinary people.

But she really understands that those so-called noble knights are simply vulnerable to Hamlet's army.

So she didn't care, let alone how the nobles would react after getting the news.

"No, I mean they really plan to bulldoze the South from east to west? Isn't such a march route too hasty?"

"You can doubt me, but you can't doubt the lord's plan. His thoughts are not something we can easily understand."

"I understand...by the way, do you know what happened to Hamlet some time ago?"

Sera had no doubts, because they would also verify the information, but she wanted to know more about the situation of Extreme Darkness and Blood Moon, which was required by the organization.

It's just that when asked about this, Amanda didn't feel as confident as before. On the contrary, she just acted like a loser.

"I don't know any more than you do."

Everyone is professional in intelligence, and as soon as Sierra heard this, she knew that it was impossible to get more information from Amanda.

However, for the sake of future cooperation, she couldn't keep entangled anymore, but she revealed a very interesting news.

"Tamara came out. The organization sent her to investigate Hamlet's affairs, and she is on her way now."

As soon as these words came out, Amanda's calm expression could not help but change slightly, but it passed quickly, and she sneered and pretended not to care, "Tamara? Humph!"

Sierra smiled and said nothing, and waited until Amanda finished speaking before adding something leisurely.

"This time I heard that the organization handed over two sacred objects to her."

Sera has absolutely no good intentions. What she said about Tamara coming and the so-called holy objects were indeed true, but she concealed a very important news, that is, Tamara has been promoted to the champion.

What this guy said was somewhat provocative. Seeing that Amanda didn't want to talk about the blood moon, he backhandedly moved Tamara to disgust her.

As expected, he was a Roma man, and with a little resentment, he tried his best to seek revenge.

"Then help me tell the elders that Hamlet is in deep water and cannot be grasped by just anyone. Investigating Hamlet sounds nice, but that person doesn't like it. I can't guarantee what will happen to affect the deal."

Although Amanda gave up the empty title of the person in charge of the empire, there are some things that cannot be escaped, because she is of Roma origin, and this is a fact that cannot be changed.

So she didn't break up directly, she just didn't have contact with her former line leader, the teacher. In fact, she always had indirect contact with the organization through Sera.

She played a role in Hamlet's transactions with the Roma for several extraordinary items or potions, and she did nothing to harm the Roma.

The most she can do is deliver some news to make some money, isn't she still maintaining this channel? Roma people also make a lot of money through this.

And her news is indeed true. Just like this time, they all led the troops. How can it be false?

But it’s hard to tell now, it’s not just Sera who has a temper, she also has one.

She regards Hamlet as her own piece of land. What do you mean by asking Tamara to come over to investigate Hamlet?

Isn’t it clear who to point to? This time she felt a sense of suspicious distrust.

What's more important is that the higher-ups brought out two holy objects to that bitch even though they knew Tamara was not going to deal with him. Who are they trying to deal with?

I was once the hero who hunted down fugitives! And now you actually let a fugitive come to investigate me?

For Amanda this is a betrayal!

She was already a little emotional because of being abandoned before, but now her resentment against the organization has deepened, and it has even gradually spread to the Roma group.

Otherwise, she would not threaten to stop the transaction when she heard that the organization had let Tamara go.

Originally, Sierra said this just to disgust Amanda. Seeing her like that, she didn’t know how loud she laughed, and even continued to fan the flames.

But this time I was suddenly dumbfounded. Why did the fire burn to my head?

You must know that you are responsible for the transaction with Hamlet. You have made countless benefits from it, and you have also strengthened your control over the Roma people in the empire. After all, you are rich.

After tasting the sweetness, they can't live without it. If the deal is broken now, there will be no difference between the superiors and the subordinates.

Sera didn't know whether Amanda had the ability to affect Lord Hamlet, but she didn't dare to bet, after all, it was difficult for her to even see the Lord's face.

After reacting, Sierra immediately expressed indignation and denounced.

"I can't stand that Tamara guy either! Why can she go back and the two of us have to live here?"

Her words were obviously intended to classify both parties as victims and to bring them closer together.

It's a pity that Amanda didn't change her mind because of these words. On the contrary, a sneer appeared on her face, and she didn't even bother to say anything, so she turned around and walked out.

We are all snow leopards of thousands of years, so why are we playing electronic cigarettes?

Sierra was dumbfounded now and really wanted to slap herself, why the hell are you talking so much?

This time I don’t know how much meat I have to cut to finish...

However, she regretted it. She didn't dare to come to Extreme Darkness and Blood Moon before, and the potion inventory had been exhausted long ago, so she hurried over to restock after hearing that everything was fine this time.

On the contrary, this news is irrelevant. To her, it doesn't matter whether Hamlet recovers this territory or not, and she doesn't think how much money those nobles can pay for this news.

Even if it is the theoretically most valuable marching route, you would not believe it to others, let alone whether it is valuable, because it is obvious that it is a flat push.

So this batch of goods is still important, and if she wants this batch of goods, she has to please Amanda.

"Don't leave. I have important news here that few people know. You must be interested."

Sierra stood up and stepped forward to hold Amanda, made a full gesture, and said mysteriously.

"Tamara is promoted to champion."

These words did make Amanda stop in her tracks, and her expression became a little unspeakable.

I thought Tamara would progress quickly, but I didn't expect it to be so fast. Amanda relied on Hamlet to fight the Beast Lair and the Deep Diver, and even broke through the dungeon to be promoted.

This thing is not a carrot and cabbage. She turned around and became the champion?

Amanda didn't know about Tamara's efforts. Anyway, in her eyes, it was differential treatment by the organization, which made her already unbalanced mentality even more distorted.

"The empire is the territory of both of us. We have cooperated for so long, and I will definitely support you!"

Sierra’s words made it clear that it is difficult for you to fight against Tamara on your own. Likewise, I don’t like the people who come to investigate from the organization. After all, it will be troublesome if what we both did is found out, so we cooperate to fight against Tamara. is the best choice.

"Can you kill her before she comes to Hamlet?"

Amanda is much more direct, there is no confrontation.

What if something is really found? It would be better if the investigation sent by the superiors either crashes or falls into the water.

"It's unlikely. The guy in their hands is not fake. We will be noticed if we do it."

Sierra shook her head, not that she didn’t want to, but that she couldn’t.

He is a champion spellcaster and a stargazer who specializes in prophecy and divination. Not to mention having two sacred objects, there is basically no possibility of a sneak attack, and it is difficult to explain to the superiors if he reveals his secrets.

"Then don't bother, let her do whatever she wants."

Amanda suddenly realized that she was not relying on the organization now, so what was she afraid of...
