After reading the instructions, Drasel felt that the king's move was reasonable. After all, launching a war for no 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 sooner or later unify the world.
Therefore, when the Kingdom of Swadia takes the initiative to attack Nord, the other kingdoms will definitely be watching with eager eyes. The Swadia family cannot be allowed to dominate, otherwise they will become a prey sooner or later.
But after King Haraus X's actions, Swadia became a legitimate and benevolent teacher, fighting for his own honor and reputation, and others would not rush in to take a share of the pie.
[Additional reward: Wisdom 1, you have thought quite carefully and comprehensively. That’s what it is. Older people are still smarter. Don’t underestimate the political methods of King Haraus X.]
Well, I know. The system thanks you. It’s time for us to rest today. We will go out again tomorrow morning...
Thinking of these, Russell gradually became tired and sleepy, and fell asleep next to Arthur.
However, this night was quite torturous. One moment, Arthur drank too much and vomited. The next moment, he used his thick arms and thighs to press down on Russell, causing the baron to almost suffocate.
I never thought that instead of dying on the battlefield, I almost suffocated on the bed and was pinned down by a man. The scene was so beautiful...
During this period, the Baron thought of pushing his hands and legs away, but they were too heavy. In addition, the Baron himself had drunk a lot of wine and was not strong enough, so he had to let them crush him.
At night, Drasel could not help but cry:
"Three years of natural disasters have not starved me to death, earthquakes have not shocked me to death, tsunamis have not swept me into the sea, I have endured everything! Am I going to be crushed to death by a man today..."
After spending a nightmarish night, when he woke up from breakfast, Russell felt that his fatigue had not dissipated at all, but had become more painful.
He glanced at the fat blond man next to him who still looked like a dead pig, and complained: "Arthur, just wait for me..."
After simply washing and dressing up, the Baron left the room and began to enjoy breakfast. While eating, he also asked Lao O to prepare a carriage and throw it to Arthur later and drag it back to Nord.
According to the third step in his plan, when Arthur wakes up from a hangover, he tells him that he drank too much and got into trouble, so he got drunk and killed his golden rooster for fun.
I also had chicken soup along the way, which fulfilled my dream of eating golden rooster.
But this fat guy doesn't seem to be able to wake up for a while, so we can only carry out the fourth step first and drag him back to his hometown to make further plans.
At this time, Safiya also woke up to have breakfast. She asked: "Baron, I heard the horn sound last night, but there seemed to be no movement in the town, so I didn't get up to ask you, what happened?"
"Nothing, it's just that we took the initiative to go to war with the Kingdom of Nord. The king ordered us to go out, defeat and capture an enemy lord and come back to pay for the reward."
"Shouldn't a war be started with gongs and drums? I remember that the last time the Kugit Khanate attacked us, they were beating drums!"
Russell rolled his eyes and said angrily: "My lovely Princess Safiya, you are really simple-minded. Everyone uses instruments with the same rhythm, won't the enemy understand your intentions?"
"If you understand, you understand! We are going to go over and fight them. Then our large army has passed. Of course they know what it means. Are we going to eat?"
"Then, each kingdom is good at different musical instruments, right? Maybe others like to play gongs and drums, while we like to play horns and trumpets. Besides, this is very important?"
"I don't care! Anyway, I think unity is good! Are you going to talk back again?" After saying that, Safiya made a gesture as if she wanted to twist his ears.
Thinking of the irritating pain when his ears were twisted into a ball, the baron immediately gave in: "I can't stand it anymore, I'm wrong, right, it should be unified! Next time I tell the king, we will use it too
Gongs and drums!”
With such a reply, the baron was very unconvinced in his heart. He is a cunning woman and a savage woman! Can you learn to be gentle?
It should be divided into several customs and habits according to the characteristics and differences of each kingdom! It is really a summer insect that cannot be said!
After cursing in his mind, Russell felt much better, sighed, and started eating breakfast with a smile on his face.
"Then what are we going to do next? Lead the troops and go to Nord? I really want to fight. Last time, Ren and I cooperated well in the air. Do you still remember? Do you still remember~"
"Yes, I remember."
"What do you remember?"
"I just remember it. Just...well, I remember it anyway." Russell said perfunctorily while eating.
"You...you!"
"Ah! It hurts, it hurts!"
In the end, Russell's ear was grabbed hard by the furious Safiya, which was heartbreaking.
After a while, Russell covered his red and hot ears and said aggrievedly: "Let's go to Arthur's territory first, and then fight on the way back."
Safiya couldn't help but be a little confused and asked: "Why?"
"Because taking Arthur with you is a burden and it is difficult to start a war with others. We can only take a long way to Arthur's territory, Shanmu Castle and Shanmu Village first, and then talk."
"Well, I didn't expect you to take good care of your brothers."
"Of course, don't worry, Safiya. I remember the hatred of Owens and the others. Sooner or later, I will capture that damn guy Nayan and let you slaughter him."
[System prompt: The friendship level between you and Safiya is 2, and the current friendship level is 50.]
[Evaluation: This time you finally understood what Safiya said. It’s not easy. Keep it up.]
Next, the group of people got ready and marched towards Shanmu Castle and Shanmu Village with Arthur.
There are currently 45 level 2 Swadian soldiers in the army, with Safiya as the captain. There are 3 level 5 Swadian Iron Knights, with Xiao Ming as the captain.
In addition, in order to increase his strength, the Baron specially brought the prison warden Borcha with him, and left four second-level Swadian soldiers to guard the town.
So there are a total of 41 Swadian soldiers, 3 Swadian iron knights, Safiya, Renn, and Borcha in this trip.
Since his kingdom is the active attacker and Uxhauer is relatively far away from the Nord Kingdom, the Baron can rest assured that the enemy will not attack his territory for a while.
