Crusader Kings: Prisoners of War

In the Chinese military camp, Orville explained to Jeanne Dacre what he was going to do.

"According to Roman rules, enemy commanders who are captured or surrender on the battlefield must be escorted to the city of Rome to participate in the triumphal ceremony. You are not asked to wear gold-plated or brass armor and pull a chariot with four white horses majesticly. When you enter the city, you will be locked in a prison van and returned in shackles.

I think you don't want to be treated like this, and neither do I, so I will do some tricks to save you from going to Rome. "

Vercingetorix, the leader of the Gallic uprising in history, was treated in this way. Originally, the leader of the Parfi Party, Bar Giola, should have been treated the same way, but at this time and space, he died in the rebellion, so he did not have this chance. be shown.

In Orville's view, if nothing else happens, Jeanne will not be able to escape the treatment of being paraded in the streets.

It's okay to say that Gilles de Leith is a noble himself, and he can save a little face for the surrendered Gaulese nobles, but the members of the Senate must be eyeing Jeanne, who believes in pagan gods, is a woman, and is a peasant. Their background has put them in trouble, so it would be strange not to hold grudges.

It might be okay just to embarrass the Parade Club, but the problem is that Orville doesn't dare to bring people to the Senate's mouth. Rome is the base of the Senate, and there are too many places where they can operate. As soon as it was drawn, in a few days we would hear the news that Jeanne died of secret execution or fever.

Orville couldn't openly disagree with the Senate, so he could only put forward his request tactfully.

Jeanne was still quite gloomy and depressed: "Just do whatever you want."

Orville frowned when he saw this, and then changed his words: "There is no doubt that your thinking needs to be corrected. I have changed my mind. You can be my notification attendant."

For upper-class people, it is impossible to write down the names of all the dignitaries around them. There are 600 senators in the Senate alone, and there are thousands of various dignitaries below. Unless the big man's head is equipped with a calculator to retrieve the corresponding Data, otherwise it would be impossible to write it all down.

At this time, it is useful to inform the attendants. They are responsible for writing down the looks and faces of various nobles, and privately reminding the big shots who these people are to each other. With this, at least embarrassment can be avoided. The big shots can know who they are talking to now, and they will not realize that they have remembered the wrong person after talking for a long time.

Sometimes these attendants also serve as secretaries, consultants, and staff, depending on how much their respective masters rely on them.

The importance of the position is not low, and the status is not particularly low, but generally only intellectuals can hold such positions. It is somewhat humorous to order the illiterate Jeanna to do it. How does she know the names of those in Rome? who.

"Squire, okay." Of course, Jeanne didn't know the twists and turns of the rules and regulations of the middle and upper-class nobles, so she agreed without understanding.

In fact, it would be nice to have a name for this kind of thing, and it would be easy to say what specific positions should be given without being too outrageous. Except for the positions within the legion that are somewhat restricted by citizenship, Orville has a lot of autonomy in other parts.

Orville wanted to take the opportunity to correct the other party's current depressed state, so he gave her a position that would allow the two parties to have more contact.

In fact, whether it can be put to any specific use is secondary, because Orville usually only contacts necessary people, and there are actually very few meaningless walks and social interactions. He has never informed his attendants.

"Then it's a pleasure to cooperate. Please rest assured that I am quite friendly to you, and there is no conflict of interest between us."

Orville stretched out his hand towards the other party, and Jeanne was stunned for a few seconds before reaching out in response.

"I know this. The angels have told me so."

Orville couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. This was the first time a question mark had appeared on this panel, and it was also the first time he had used two words to evaluate a person.

Generally speaking, the titles given on the panel are adjectives plus status, such as calm warrior, reckless businessman, bold general, etc. Jeanne's evaluation is "saint", which means that in the panel's view, it is one word That's enough to sum up the man.

This is still a minor issue. The thing Orville doesn't understand the most is why there are question marks. This means that the opponent's military capabilities panel cannot be evaluated.

It probably has nothing to do with the so-called "explosion". If the opponent really has this kind of ability, he won't be defeated. It's just simply impossible to evaluate.

After being puzzled, Orville simply stopped thinking about it. Anyway, the two of them are on the same front now. There is still a long time to come, and there is still time to study slowly.

Now let’s assume that the other party is really the so-called divine choice, and the Archangel Michael really gives military advice. It’s useless to worry too much. Some things are temporarily unclear.

After the celebration banquet, the next step is for the army to leave the scene and prepare to return to the stationed area carrying various trophies.

Orville gave his Ninth Legion to the temporary command of Old Trajan, and asked them to station at the mouth of the Seine with the Vikings to watch them and prevent them from plundering everywhere. At the same time, he was responsible for maintaining local public security and, when necessary, Sometimes you can also use "extraordinary measures", that is, let the Vikings handle things for you.

He and the Vikings were completely settled, and it was not enough to put in all the money Vespa gave him. However, Orville also made a lot of money when he blackmailed the nobles in the local area, and he could barely cope with this matter.

Most of the troops were given to Old Trajan. Keeping an eye on the Vikings was just one of the reasons. Orville also asked Old Trajan to build a port and military camp at the mouth of the Seine. Orville and his army should be stationed in this place for a long time in the future. Let's lay a good foundation first.

In fact, Orville also wanted Old Trajan to start building a dock now to facilitate the future shipbuilding expedition to Britain. However, there were indeed few people in the army who mastered this skill, so he didn't bother. He planned to ask Vespa for instructions before making plans.

Orville took the remaining troops and returned to Trier with Tia to listen to the emperor's next instructions.

Only his four self-funded brigades and 500 Viking mercenaries followed him. The rest were left with Old Trajan. However, due to the large number of Tia's troops, the marching speed was still not fast. It took more than half a month to reach Trier and join the emperor's large army by taking the provincial road.

While the army was still queuing up to enter the camp, Orville and Tia first found Vespa and prepared to explain their battle plans and intentions to him.
