Lord of War

The Rembert Guards soon became Cecilia's personal guard.

Sean didn't object to this point, and it was certainly even more unlikely that Clover would object. And a secret agreement between them is that Clover is not allowed to mention anything about the Duchy of Rember to Cecilia, and even the name of this army must be changed, and no words of Rember are allowed to appear.

So in the final plan, the name of this army was changed to Cecilia's Guards.

Cecilia herself was surprised that she suddenly had a personal guard army for no reason, especially Clover, the commander of the personal guard army, she had never seen before. If she was not curious, it must be fake of. It's just that after turning around the corner and asking several times, Cecilia couldn't find anything, so Cecilia had no choice but to give up. Anyway, Sean would definitely not harm her, so she accepted this arrangement.

However, under normal circumstances, Cecilia's personal guards would only be responsible for stationing in Black Swan Castle, unless there was a plan that required Cecilia to travel far, they would consider letting this elite army accompany them. Of course, Clover knew that he was not completely accepted by Sean, as if he didn't trust Sean very much, but everyone knew this kind of thing well, so there was no need to explain it completely, anyway, neither side currently It will be against each other.

It's just that right now, Cecilia's Guards still have a very important task, so important that Sean had to let them stay in the barracks temporarily, and even bought a new set of equipment for them.

The Cecilia's Guards, which had been replaced with new equipment, did not look like a mob or bandits after all. At least from the perspective of spirit, it was indeed more like a real elite army. And Sean and William also learned more about the combat capability of the entire army by replacing the equipment of this elite army-the Cecilia's personal guards have a total of 427 people, excluding Clover and Clover. Except for a deputy commander designated by Love, there are a total of 425 soldiers capable of fighting.

Among them, there are 120 shield infantrymen with shields and guns, 100 longbowmen who can easily shoot arrows to the limit distance of 500 meters, and 60 swordsmen who are known as the nemesis of cavalry, equipped with short spears. There are sixty spear-throwers who can fight from a distance. Sixty heavy shield infantry who have focused on defense for thirty years. And the last twenty people are night watchers, this is a branch of the scout profession in this world, but this kind of scout is not known for its combat effectiveness, and can only conduct short-distance security investigations when the troops are marching. A true scout in the category of Bushwatch. It is doomed that none of them will survive.

But from this point on. It can be seen that this army is worthy of the four words [complete arms] in the system evaluation. It's just that the more complicated the army is, the more difficult it is to learn combat skills. Of course, if it weren't for this reason, this army would probably be a fifth-level army. It's not level four—although the difference between the ace and the elite is only one level, the combat power represented by the two sides is completely different.

What Sean needs is this army to act as a front.

For this reason, he had to let William make other plans in advance. For example, the entire army sent to him by Vivienne was relocated to Panda Town, and the initial repair work was carried out first. After all, this would become his first military facility in the future. And the military facilities of the Void City have basically been built, allowing the White Wing mercenaries to settle in first, and naturally they have officially changed their name to the Void City City Guards.

In this way, the rebuilt barracks can accommodate more than 2,000 steel wings and more than 400 Cecilia's personal guards.

Time continues to pass quietly, and does not stop at the will of people.

In the blink of an eye, another month passed.

The official diplomatic mission from the Boulder family finally arrived in Pandaland.

As Sean and William expected. This time, the troops responsible for protecting the mission consisted of three hundred Tequila Black Guards and seven hundred Tequila Cavalry. As we all know, the full strength of the Tequila Cavalry is three thousand, while that of the Tequila Black Guard is only one thousand, although the combat effectiveness of the two is almost the same. However, the Tequila Black Guards are mobile heavy infantry, while the Tequila Cavalry are light cavalry. From the perspective of the aborigines on the Miracle Continent, heavy infantry and heavy cavalry are more cost-effective. That's why they underestimate the Tequila Cavalry.

But if it was Sean who chose, he would definitely give up the Tequila Blackback. Instead, expand the size of the Tequila Cavalry to 10,000. You know, the annual military expenditure of 1,000 Tequila Black Guards is equivalent to 3,000 Tequila Cavalry. The value of Tequila Cavalry is higher than that of Tequila Black, both in terms of number of people and quality. Wei Gao, Sean really doesn't know what Duke Hatch is thinking.

In addition to the 1,000 guards, there was also a diplomatic corps with a total of seven people, and the leader was a member of the Boulder family who held the title of Earl. In addition, there are eight gold-level powerhouses—the Boulder family sent half of the gold-level powerhouses of the entire family to accompany them. This not only demonstrates the background of the Boulder family, but also shows a kingdom. The tough attitude and momentum that a high-ranking nobleman should have.

All kinds of information were quickly gathered into William's hands through many channels, and Sean, as the lord, naturally knew about it at the first time.

"It's a good start." After looking through all the information, Bess glanced at Sean in surprise, "You, like Andrew, are really good at getting into trouble...but you two are a little different, Andrew. Follow wherever you go to cause trouble, but you deliberately caused trouble."

"Is there a difference?"

"Of course." Bess said without hesitation, "The former is passive, the latter is active. This is the same as masochism. Andrew has to resist this kind of behavior, but you... Take the initiative to seek abuse. In essence, you have very serious self-abuse tendencies."

All the people in Sean's inner circle in the tent laughed in good faith.

Through the past two months of contact, they have already discovered that Beth's mouth is particularly poisonous. So under normal circumstances, if they can not communicate with Beth, they will definitely not communicate with him, and only Sean will continue to ask him if there is a difference?

This is indeed some kind of masochism.

"I have no choice." Sean sighed helplessly, "I have to keep looking for trouble in order to provoke a war between the two countries. But in the process of making trouble, I still have to Do everything possible to stand firm, at least not let the other party think that I am too unreasonable or have other problems, otherwise Asuna will not be able to keep me. A strong person like you will not understand the sorrow of a small person like me. "

"Every strong person also grows up from being weak." Beth glanced at Sean and said meaningfully. "So, picking the right opponent can have excellent results. ... You picked the wrong opponent from the beginning, so you are stuck here now. However, I finally understand why Andrew appreciates you, and It’s not just because you’re from your hometown.”

"What is that for?" Sean was at a loss.

A strong man like Andrew. If it is not for the sake of fellow countrymen. What reason does he have to help himself? The principle of equivalent exchange? Then there is no need to wake up Bess at all, the space given to him to store the ring and those divine power crystals is enough.

"For friends." Bess said softly, "Your beliefs and ideas are very close to Andrew."

Sean thought about it.

Three days later, the Boulder family's diplomatic mission finally officially arrived in the Void City.

In today's Void City, the outer city wall is almost completed, but it still takes about one to two months for final repairs. This is almost a must for all cities in this world. This is also because Sean transferred his manpower to leave Void City. Otherwise, it would take less than forty days to complete the complete construction of the outer city wall of the Void City.

Of course, compared with the construction of the outer city wall, the void city is really very spacious. Although the boundaries of several areas have been demarcated, and the inner city walls of the innermost circle have also been built, many places do not have any buildings at all, just a piece of open space. The City Lord's Mansion where you will work.

Strictly speaking, the entire Void City is just a model that has just been built.

However, when he saw the reasonable planning and building distribution, the eyes of the Earl of the Boulder family seemed a little deep.

Sean greets him there. It is in the City Lord's Mansion.

Although the entire City Lord's Mansion has been built, the scaffolding on the outer wall and the scaffolding inside the mansion have not been dismantled, so naturally there is no decoration, and even the smell of logs is in the air. But because of the arrival of the envoys. Therefore, the City Lord's Mansion deliberately vacated a large room as a meeting room. A red carpet, a rectangular table and a dozen chairs were placed here, and there were some relatively simple arrangements.

But that's all.

The negotiations between the two parties are held in this conference room. But there are not many people who can really enter this room.

On the side of the Boulder family, only seven diplomats can enter, and on the side of Sean, except for him, the lord, who must be present. William, Neil, and Cecilia were also present. Alfred, Rena, Clover and others were not good at negotiating, so it was useless to come, so naturally they stayed in the barracks and the void city, but Clover brought about fifty personal guards People are responsible for protecting the City Lord's Mansion.

And the eight gold-ranked powerhouses of the Boulder family, although they did not enter the meeting room, they still stood in the corridor outside the meeting room.

Of course, the one who stayed with the eight gold-level powerhouses was naturally Beth sitting on the coffin.

Facing Bess alone, the eight gold-level powerhouses all put on the appearance of facing an enemy, and they didn't even dare to show their air. If before coming here, the eight gold-level powerhouses still felt that they were making a big fuss, then they would not think so at this moment, and even felt that the original Boulder family wanted to use them to create pressure on the lord Xiao En I am afraid that this idea will also be ruined.

Different from the stagnant and almost breathless atmosphere outside the corridor, although the atmosphere in the conference room was equally tense, at least the expressions on both sides seemed to be quite relaxed.
