"I don't have such a high talent like Deng Jiaer and Alisa."
"Not like you and Raymond, Gary has outstanding military style and ability."
"I am the most mediocre leader of all the Knights of Michael."
"So, I am the one who should stay and defend the northern front the most."
"Because only in this way can you, people who are much better than me, go to places that need you more!"
...

Indoor command—
"Del wants to replace Samuel so that Samuel, who is much more powerful than her, can follow the regiment commander and fight against Allen's rebels and Franks?" Willie exclaimed after hearing Su Cheng's explanation.
"That's right." Su Cheng nodded, "Although I didn't communicate with Dele before, I understood the meaning of her eyes."
"I have heard some knights of the 4th Army say before that - Del has complained many times in private that his ability is mediocre and that he is the most incompetent of all the knights of the Knights of Michael."
"Especially after Deng Jiaer and Alyssa became commanders of the 5th and 6th Army, Del's complaints became more and more obvious."
After hearing Su Cheng's words, Raymond, Gary, Deng Jiaer and others became nervous.
Especially Raymond, not only showed a little nervousness on his face, but even his hands and feet didn't seem to know what to do.
Because he had just criticized Dele for not being as personal abilities as Samuel.
"Del knew that his ability was not as good as Samuel, nor as good as others." Su Cheng continued, "that was the task of guarding the northern front."
"'I will guard the northern front so that everyone who is far more capable than me can go to places that require their talents more' - this should be what Del had when he made up his mind to sit in the northern front."
After Su Cheng's words fell, the command room became quiet.
Except for Su Cheng, everyone lowered their heads slightly and remained silent.
Raymond, who had just criticized Dele's personal abilities without any hesitation, had a faint look of shame on his face at this moment...

Outside the door of the lounge—
“…Del.”
After a long silence, Samuel finally spoke out.
"Have you really realized it?"
"The mission of blocking the Sheeran army and defending the northern front is not easy at all."
"If anything goes wrong, it will be a trivial matter for your death on the spot. If you can't do it well, the northern front may be broken by the Sheeran army in one fell swoop, and the northern border will be defeated by the enemy."
As soon as Samuel finished speaking, Del nodded vigorously:
"Well, I've been awakened a long time ago."
"Don't underestimate me. I'm one of the six commanders of the Knights of Michael's Order of the Britannian Empire."
"Even if my personal abilities are not as good as you, I still have the confidence to do this by defending the Muhaviz Fortress and preventing a Sheeran soldier from passing through the Eghar Corridor!"
"If I don't have confidence, I won't take the initiative to grab this task."
"Let me leave it to me with confidence."
"You just follow the regiment commander south without any worries and defeat Allen's rebels and the Franks!"
Looking at Samuel, who had been expressionless since the beginning, a smile gradually appeared on his cheeks.
"snort."
After chuckling with a "hum" through his nose, Samuel said:
"Well, I understand, then - the Northern Front, I will leave it to you."
"Ah?"
Del's eyes widened and looked Samuel up and down several times.
"I thought you would block me."
Del looked at Samuel in front of him with an unexpected look on his face.
"I thought you would continue to yell, 'No! I'm not at ease to hand over the northern front to you', and then force me to go south with the regiment commander, and then follow the regiment commander's original plan, and take the northern front by myself."
"Don't be stupid." Samuel said angrily, "I'm not a three-year-old, how could I still be like this mother-in-law?"
"Since you have already realized, I will not insult your determination."
"And you seem to be wrong - I believe in your ability from beginning to end, and believe that you can beautifully guard the northern front."
"Have you not discovered that I have never questioned your ability since I just started?"
After saying that, Samuel raised his right fist and fisted towards Del.
"Stop Xilanjun beautifully."
Del looked at Samuel's right fist that was stretching towards her and raised his eyebrows.
Then he also raised her right fist and gently hit Samuel's fist.
Two fists touched slightly one by one.
"So too," Del smiled, "assist me the commander pretty and defeat Allen's rebels and Franks."

...
The Holy Xiran Empire, the imperial capital Alianmuya, the suburbs, and the town of Poji.
In the town of Poji, there is a small house with an ordinary appearance.
Although the appearance of this small house is very ordinary and looks like a simple house, this small house with an ordinary appearance is well known to everyone in Poji Town.
The villagers of Poji Town all know that this small house that looks very ordinary is actually quite strange.
Whenever you pass by this small house, you can feel an amazing heat wave coming from this small house.
Mars and smoke kept spraying out of the chimneys of the house and would stop until late at night.
The sound of ding-and-dang irons surged out of the room with the heat waves.
The constant sound of irons and heat waves, the continuous sound of sparks and smoke from the chimneys - from which angle, this small house is a blacksmith shop.
The reason why the villagers of Poji Town think this house is strange is that they have never seen the owner of this "blacksmith shop" sell them with their forged works.
Generally speaking, blacksmith shops only sell two kinds of things - iron daily necessities and weapons.
The blacksmith shop specializing in iron daily necessities, the most commonly made things are iron barrels, iron farm tools, iron tableware and other items.
The most common things for blacksmith shops that specialize in building iron weapons are long swords, spears, armor and other objects.
No matter what kind of items are created, someone will come to buy them.
If you specialize in daily necessities, there will be merchants who come to buy them.
If you are specializing in weapons, in addition to some big businessmen coming to buy them, there will also be people from the state who will buy them.
But since this "blacksmith shop" was built in the town, the villagers of Boji Town have never seen anyone come to this "blacksmith shop" to buy things.
I have never seen the people of this "blacksmith shop" take out the things they forged out and sell them.
Until now, the villagers of Poji Town did not know what this blacksmith shop was specially forged...
There are sounds of forgings every day, but the things they forged are never sold. Until now, no one in the town knows what this "blacksmith shop" is forging - this is why the villagers of Boji Town think this "blacksmith shop" is strange.
In fact, the reason why no one came to buy the things of this "blacksmith shop" was that the owner of this "blacksmith shop" did not sell their works, it was quite simple.
Because they are not forging any goods at all.
This house is actually not a blacksmith shop.
This house is a very low-profile musket department.
