Mage Joan

Lord Castis smiled and replied calmly: "Joan, before I won the title of nobility, was also a native of the village of Yalfheim. I know very well that our southerners' fighting style is deeply influenced by the Asa The influence of the inhabitants, and in the eyes of the nobles, this method of fighting for the victory of the march, focusing on the mobility and suddenness of the march, is only worthy of being called "pirate play", and there is a more unpleasant saying, called "bandit" Fight'."

"So what kind of mode should war be in the eyes of noble knights?"

"Oh, as you can see, just like what Laval and I did in an open letter to General Convalley, the commanders of the two parties followed the gentlemanly manner and greeted each other politely. Have the right to decide the time of the war. If the weather matters, both the enemy and the enemy will abide by their commitments. The two armed forces will confront each other at the agreed time and place.

"This series of etiquette about war also includes a lot of details that seem very ridiculous to young people like you."

"For example, in the tradition of our imperial knights, officers should dress up beautifully on the day of the decisive battle, wear white breeches, sky blue military coats, armor and shields decorated with prominent family crests, and a helmet should be inserted. The colorful peacock or pheasant feathers, sitting on horseback, look personable, but also a very conspicuous sniper target, right?"

"You can rest assured that in accordance with the rules of war of the noble knights, it is not allowed to shoot enemy officers with crossbows or rifles, because this is a very ungentleman and very unethical behavior. Whoever does this will be condemned by the upper class. ."

"Fei Zhenren is strong in infantry rather than cavalry. Relatively speaking, Fei Zhen Knight's appearance is not as sophisticated as our imperial knights, but Fei Zhen Ren also pays great attention to war etiquette."

"The military uniform of Feizhen Army is very gorgeous, uniformly wearing a red army coat with lapels, white semi-trousers and stockings, wearing a striped triangle hat, black riding boots, Feizhen people think that such a costume is full of style, It seems to me like cooked lobster, which is a bit funny."

"Every time the Feizhen troops go out, they must bring a military band and start a formation on the battlefield. The first to work hard is the military band. The loud horn is played, the drums are played, and the infantry square is in military music. Under the accompaniment of the company, with a neat step forward, even if the comrades around you are shot down, you can't mess up the beat."

"This sounds funny, doesn't it?"

"It's a little funny..." Joan's mouth twitched slightly, resisting the urge to laugh.

Lord Castis saw the disapproval in his eyes, and then said: "In fact, I appreciate the so-called "pirate play" and firmly believe that this is the trend of future war development. As for the old school nobles trying to add moral principles to the war It is too romantic to try to beautify the **** fighting between the two armies into the classic knightly duel mode. To put it bluntly is to eat the ancients and indulge yourself."

"Yes, the kind of warfare that the noble lords admire is to imitate the knightly duel. The two sides agree on the time and place. They also have to invite a notary to the challenged party to choose the weapon used in the duel, such as a rifle. Or a sword. I heard that pistol duels have become popular in recent years. Most young nobles choose this fashionable way of dueling.

"You may ask, since Lavalmin and I knew that this classic knightly way of war was out of date, why did we make such a retro decision and openly fight with Fiji?"

There was a hint of cunning in Lord Castis's smile.

"That's because after the combat staff of the headquarters have repeatedly discussed various tactics, they generally believe that with this upright confrontation strategy, our victory is greater."

Joan frowned and asked softly, "General Convalley and the staff around him, can't you see this? If they realize that head-to-head confrontation is not the best option, I'm afraid they will not accept your openness with Baron Laval The proposed battle."

"Joan, if it is the other generals who command the Fijian troops, such as Earl Winsrop or his eldest son,'Blood Prince' Bennis Winsrop, it is indeed possible Yuli, march in the way that is most beneficial to them because they are all very realistic people."

"But Thomas Convalley is different. You can hardly say that this guy truly admires the knighthood, or is a hypocrite who loves to show up and dresses decently. Anyway, he has successfully shaped the public image of "Knight General", and this person cares very much. The image of oneself in the upper class of society even surpasses the concern about the victory or defeat of the war."

"In General Convalley's own words, ‘instead of stealing victory with ugly means, he would rather lose upright.'"

The corners of Lord Castis's lips evoked a sarcastic arc.

"Joan, you think about it. Generals like Kang Huali, who came from aristocratic origins and imitated classic knight styles everywhere, can he refuse our open book of appointments?"

"What’s more, even if they are fighting openly on the designated battlefield, the Fijian side has a greater chance of winning. If General Convalier is confident that he can play a big victory and win the praise of the upper class, it has become the people’s mind. The perfect and noble example of a knight. Why did he evade the open appointment, so he was infamous for being timid, and damaged his most cherished reputation?"

"Grandpa, I see, this is a psychological tactic!"

After listening to the explanation of Lord Castis, Joan not only relieved, but also had a deeper understanding of the sick old man in front of him.

Just like Lord Castis himself said, he was not born a nobleman, but a merit earned by his solid record, a grass-rooted hero killed on the **** and cruel battlefield, in order to live and protect himself Homeland and loved ones, he had not hesitated to sell his soul to the evil god, would he care about what aristocratic decency, knighthood, and self-restraint on the battlefield?

In fact, before the war of real swords and real guns had begun, Lord Castis had already launched an offensive against the enemy at the psychological level.

Joan doesn’t know if Thomas Convalier is a veritable "noble knight", but he is convinced that Dandridge Castis is definitely a genuine "old fox", whoever is sick when he is sick and will be bullied sooner or later Pit out blood!

As expected, Lord Castis received a reply from General Thomas Convalley two days later.

General Convalley made elegant sentences with words, and the aristocratic Fan Er's full style of writing readily accepted the open appointment between Lord Castis and Baron Laval.
