I Will Be The Crowned King
Vol 5 Chapter 19: Nova
Faced with the ecstatic Laura, the always calm Fabian was at a loss; he thought he could scare her away, but he seemed even more excited.
In desperation, the deputy commander of the legion chose to ask his "friendly and united" colleagues for help, and the reason was simple and clear-for the dangerous situation they were facing next, Fu Laura was a pure drag, not only unable to help anyone. Busy, and it may become an important breakthrough for the enemy.
The officers of the Storm Legion took this seriously, fully agreed with the Deputy Commander's judgment, and expressed their willingness to help - but the specific "method" is open to discussion.
Alexey believes that Miss Laura should be allowed to change her surname anonymously, and disguise herself as a man to join the Storm Legion as a "deputy commander-in-chief".
The advantage of this is that she can be by Fabien's side 24 hours a day without arousing anyone's suspicion.
Lieutenant Colonel Julien had a different opinion on this. How could such a noble girl as Miss Laura make compromises? As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place; the members of the Cecil family go to Clovis City generously, who has an excuse to stop it?
Chief of Staff Karl highly praised the plan, but also said that Lieutenant Colonel Julien was too young, and it was inevitable that he had forgotten about the flaw that Miss Laura needed to travel with the Legion.
His point of view is to prepare for a double fake identity: first let Miss Laura become an anonymous ordinary officer and infiltrate the legion.
The advantage of this is that even if it is completely exposed, the reporter can still be regarded as a serious identity. Who stipulated that the eldest lady of the Cecil family cannot experience the suffering of the people? It's been 101 years since the saints' calendar, and they still hold the old idea that "women's work is irresponsible to the family"!
Who dares to say? Whoever dares to say that, the Storm Legion will physically criticize him with practical actions.
Norton Crosell took it seriously, and took the time to add the finishing touch—how can there be no subject for an interview?
If there is a theme, there must be a reason for it; no matter what you do, you must be rigorous and serious. You should immediately prepare a full set of reporter certificates for Miss Fu Laura, and entrust a qualified newspaper in Beigang City to register there.
Before he could finish his sentence, the impatient officers who had been waiting for a long time behind him swarmed up: the military doctor, the division chief, the logistics staff, the cavalry battalion commander, the artillery company commander...
After a riot called "help", which was actually a carnival, Carl Bain silently stepped forward and hugged Fabien, and said earnestly:
"This is probably the case. After all of us have agreed that the final advice to you is..."
"...People, learn to be content!"
Fabian doesn't know that he is not really too greedy, but he is very clear about one thing, that is, he is definitely looking for the wrong person to help.
Here, the Storm Legion is busy with the life-long affairs of the deputy commander, and the Cecil family has also used the fastest speed to arrange the departure steam train for the officials of the Free Confederation Mission, Storm Legion and the Ministry of War.
Its name is "Nova".
This is a relatively rare new type of train in the Clovis Kingdom in recent years-due to repeated frictions with the Empire and the suspension of the "Grand Cross Project", the Clovis Kingdom has not designed and built a new car for a long time. …
In addition to the national power disallowance, another important reason is that the key technology of the new neat core is in the hands of the church; but as the church officially opened the steam core technology around 100 years ago, the development and construction of the new steam train also put on the agenda.
And the "Nova" that Anson and the others are going to ride this time is a product that has taken advantage of the church's open technology permissions and the "dividend" of jihad; although the design is still not much different from the past, it uses the latest steam core as the driving force. , the speed has increased by a full fifteen percent compared to the past.
"Actually, if you compare it in terms of power, it could have been improved by at least 50%, or even more."
In Beigang Station, standing behind a group of people who were amazed at the new train, the young secretary introduced to An Sen: "But it is said that the railway committee thought that designing the new train was time-consuming and laborious, and the production line needed to be updated, so they gave up the plan and changed it. Use a design that has been very mature in the past.”
"Archbishop Luther expressed his dissatisfaction with this. After all, the introduction of the new steam core was done by himself. As a result, half of the original goal was not achieved, which is very regrettable."
"The chief of the Railway Commission, Madame Caterina, and Viscount Bogner are the strongest supporters of the new production line, but this time even their colleagues and allies are reluctant to support them, and more than once expressed concern about the production of the new trains ."
"It is said that due to the increase in train speed and efficiency, the number of platforms that originally needed to stop on the way will be reduced accordingly; too fast speed will bring a very heavy burden to the railway tracks that have not been well maintained for many years..."
"At the same time, the Empire, under the auspices of the Holy See, has also begun to build factories capable of producing steam cores, and even started to develop and build ironclad steam warships; Clovis's ironclad project has been delayed again and again, and it has never been able to complete the planned targets at the beginning of each year. …”
"What are you implying?"
Anson spoke suddenly.
"Implication? Of course not." Alan Dawn was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head at Anson with a small smile: "I'm just your humble secretary, just telling you information that may be useful to you."
"The steam core is Clovis's most proficient project at present. Railways and steam trains are the foundation of the prosperity and strength of the entire Clovis; understanding these two pieces of information may allow you to make better decisions at critical moments. for correct judgment."
"Thank you very much, the information you provided is very helpful and important."
An Sen chuckled softly: "No, it's not an exaggeration to call it key information... In short, it's a big help!"
"It's an honor to be here." The little secretary holding the file bag slowly raised his head: "As your secretary, always guarding your interests is the most important mission of Xia!"
The two looked at each other and smiled understandingly.
"What are you two talking about, so elated?"
Seeing that his commander-in-chief was hiding in the corner, Carl, the chief of staff, immediately ran up to join in the fun: "I've been looking for you for a long time, and I thought you were given to you by the Ministry of War..."
"It's no big deal, it's business as usual." Anson waved his hand to dispel his concerns: "By the way, how is the arrangement of the Legion?"…
"The soldiers are in the third-class compartment, and the officers are in the second-class compartment. Each pair of people has a private room, and they must not be of the same weaving." Carl took out a cigarette case from his jacket pocket and bit one with his mouth:
"For example, I won't be with you. I have to squeeze with that bearded man from the artillery company Jeroshenko."
"Oh, then who am I in a box with?"
Carl, who heard this question, suddenly twitched the corners of his mouth, followed by a meaningful smile:
"Captain of the Guards, Lisa Bach."
Anson Bach: "…"
"Anyway, the only requirement over there is that people with similar positions should not be in the same compartment. You are a brigadier general, and Lisa is not even a non-commissioned officer. It completely meets the requirements." Carl smiled happily:
"The most important thing is that no one wants to... well, no, they dare not share a box with Miss Lisa - don't get me wrong, it's just because they all think they can't beat it, including me."
There is no objection to this Anson. In terms of pure force, Lisa is indeed the entire Storm Legion. She has a record of beheadings on the battlefield and can be called a killer. After all, most of the time, she does not dare to use spells and domains.
"However, although I have accepted the arrangement, I would also like to remind you that not everyone in the legion agrees with your decision this time."
While pulling out a match, Karl reminded in a low voice: "As far as I know, Alexei is very disapproving of being soft-spoken to the Ministry of War, and Leo and Julien seem to have their own ideas - but they will not meet in person. You said that."
"As for the officers of the middle and lower ranks, especially the soldiers, there are even more strange words; first the Great Earth and then the Free Confederation, the Storm Legion has never bowed its head to anyone, and the guy who intends to make trouble for the War Department to look at is not there. few."
An Sen nodded slightly. He was actually mentally prepared for this, and he had even prepared for the worst.
After all, the matter of compromising with the Ministry of the Army was originally a personal decision. It was neither discussed with everyone—of course it was too late and impossible to discuss—nor notified. They suddenly got the news and they had different opinions and even felt wronged. Very normal thing.
It would be better to say that like Carl, Fabian and this group of guys who have no objections are "abnormal"... Carl is used to it, after all, this is not the first time Anson has made an assertion; There was no sound from the group of people, so the situation was a little more subtle.
Of course, at least on the surface, everyone is still united, and unity is very important.
"I will try my best to suppress the soldiers, at least I won't let them make a big noise... I can't guarantee it if it's trivial." Carl's expression didn't seem very sure:
"My suggestion is that since you didn't explain it at the beginning, it's best not to explain it later, because they will definitely not listen. Keeping silent can make them feel a little bit more vigilant in their hearts."
After speaking, without waiting for An Sen's response, the adjutant who was puffing up clouds and mists squeezed into the crowd with no public morality. . …
Anson, who couldn't help laughing, just wanted to follow him, and found out the reason why Karl was flashing so quickly - Christian Bach, who had been standing silently on the platform not far away, Wave to yourself.
"...Elder brother?"
"I have heard from Viscount Bogner. Your current situation is more dangerous than I first guessed."
Facing Anson, the heavy-faced Christian did not have any euphemism, and went straight to the point: "The Ministry of War has blatantly wanted to frame you and your legion, I really don't understand, why the Privy Council, Your Majesty, they can acquiesce to this kind of thing. Something happened?!"
"Probably because, although this kind of thing is not good for them, it is not bad, right?" An Sen guessed with a chuckle.
"No harm?"
"Now I... ah, including my legion, is actually a little embarrassing for Clovis - if you admit us, then you will immediately become an enemy of the empire, because the Free Confederation is obviously not in the interests of the emperor, For those who finally bought a truce, this is absolutely not what they want to see."
"But if you directly call me a traitor... Well, first of all they have no evidence, but this is not important, the important thing is that the interests of the new world must be abandoned; Major General Ludwig, the commander of the Clovis Crusader Army, must have turned the situation around. Presented to the Privy Council and the Royal Family, it is clear that I am actually the voice for the interests of the Free Confederacy in Clovis." Anson explained:
"They are hesitant and indecisive, while the War Department is decisive, everything they do is within the scope of their duties, and no one can say anything."
"It turns out that the Ministry of the Army is such a powerful organization?" Christian looked somewhat surprised: "The ring of order is on, I always thought that the Privy Council was in control... Controlling the kingdom."
"You could say the same."
Anson shrugged and smiled casually: "Otherwise, I wouldn't have to go to court, but would have been caught by the War Department and shot to death."
"So the final result depends on whether the War Department can seize your handle, or whether it can suppress the momentum in the court and force you to be charged as a traitor."
Christian responded quite quickly and thoughtfully said: "Understood, I'll send a letter when I get to Clovis City, call my family and relatives, and let them create some momentum and public opinion for you. www.uukanshu.com”
"Ah... this is not necessary, I..."
"Don't worry about this matter and leave it to me." Christian's expression suddenly became serious: "Although the Bach family is only a small family, it is still young and has no voice; if someone bullies you, then I Don't let them think they're bullying a homeless person!"
Before he finished speaking, he didn't even look at An Sen, who was dumbfounded, and got into the car alone, leaving only his back, looking both insignificant and arrogant in the crowd.
The lonely Anson Bach sighed, looked at Lisa, who had run into the box at some point, and was pushing open the window and beckoning to him, shook his head and walked away.
Half an hour later, a harsh whistle sounded over the station platform.
Citizens of Beigang, nobles, wealthy foreign businessmen, travelers... Amid the cheers of thousands of people, the steam-gushing "Nova" train made a low roar and sailed to the end of the horizon.
Target, Clovis City.
