Chapter 266 The New Noble Directly

"Let me lead the team?"

Seeing the order from Isabella, Caligula, with beautiful long hair, leaned back on the chair. He kicked lightly, indicating to kneel in front of him. He had finished the previous round of cultivation and waited. Instructed the maid to leave the room.

Afterwards, Caligula tied the belt with his own hands, thinking about His Highness' intentions.

...

Ulrichila led a team of consuls, all [seats] went to the battlefield, and the surrounding territories were all mobilized... It sounds like this is inconsistent with the strategy for the principality that was set before.

Are we going to officially start a war? But can the empire that just ended the Millennium War really support another war that may last for a thousand years? Soldiers, people, territories... can they really survive?

"It's a waste of money."

Caligula, who was talking to himself, sighed... Although he is a very standard noble, but with his lifespan, he has actually accepted the shadow of the ancient nobles, and the common people are treated very well by his side Yes, especially those in his territory.

It is precisely because of this that he is loved as much as Ira in the hearts of the common people... Although this does not conflict with him being a very bad, rotten person who has no taboos.

Immediately, Caligula patted the clothes on his body, ready to go to the front line. Although he was not very happy to leave the capital, since it was Isabella's will, he would naturally accept it.

After all, he is not a rebellious person like Ira.

Although driving Ira away really made me a little worried about whether that bastard would overturn the table, and the usual work has become a lot more arduous, but at least there is no need to worry about His Highness being bewitched by treacherous officials.

Caligula's sleep quality has also improved a lot recently.

"Ding Ding Ding~"

As Caligula rang the bell, his butler pushed the door open and entered...with great efficiency, as if the butler had been waiting for the door instead of rushing over at the fastest speed.

From the rise and fall of the old butler's chest, it can be seen that he indeed rushed upstairs in the quietest way and at the fastest speed.

"His Royal Highness, arrange a carriage for me to return to my territory... We will be heading to the front line within a week."

Caligula said so in this not-so-abundant time, he looked at the nodding butler, and said: "Time is running out, set off today, and summon Zimmerman, Olvera, and Sir Larch for me... Urgent call, I want to see them before noon."

To be honest, Caligula was really worried about his followers, especially the ex-earls and marquises who had risen to duke through buying and selling titles, thought they were on an equal footing with Caligula and the others...

What a bunch of idiots, the land and food are used to buy titles, and there are fewer soldiers to support...

But comparing his heart with his heart, Caligula thought that if he was an earl, marquis, viscount, or baron, he could not resist this temptation... because big nobles oppressed small nobles happened all the time.

If there is an opportunity to climb up, then even I will firmly grasp it.

to be honest! Or you damn it! Ira Alcaraz!

"Yes, Lord Caligula."

Amidst the anger in Caligula's eyes, the old butler nodded his head in response. He glanced at the cabinet next to him and asked, "My lord, do you need to take these things away?"

The [things] in the cabinet are piles of plush dolls for Caligula to beat up Ira...

"No need, on the battlefield, I naturally have other ways to calm my anger."

Even thinking about Ira's matter, Caligula, who was in a bad mood, still faced his steward with a gentle attitude, and said, "Call the guards first, and I'll go see His Highness."

"Yes, my lord."

—————————

Horse-drawn carriages were not allowed in the capital, so Caligula was carried by sedan chairs on his way to the palace...and met many colleagues along the way.

From this point of view, a war is really about to start, and it hasn't been long since they have been stable.

Thinking of this, Caligula looked at the happy-looking nobles who were constantly discussing [military exploits] and [fiefdoms]... a little bit heartbroken.

They who have been living in the royal city may not realize that the continuously rising prices due to the war are no longer affordable for the people in some remote territories.

How long can it last? a hundred years? Two hundred years? It will not exceed five hundred years at most...

Inexplicably, Caligula actually felt that if Ira was still in the country at this time, maybe he could give these drifting nobles a blow... So that idiot who faked the imperial decree is really stupid!

Ira is an asshole too! All assholes! ! !

...

It's really too difficult. The amazing and brilliant talents are all my enemies. Even Caligula couldn't help admiring him. Ira, who can say "I'm not as good as him", is my mortal enemy...

And those who are willing to stand on their side are all idiots.

"Your Excellency Caligula! Today's sunshine is as good as ever, and you seem to be in good spirits~"

For this little nobleman who greeted him, Caligula didn't think that his spirit looked good, but he still nodded and talked to the nobleman who was passing by: "Thank you for your good words, you It seems to be very happy, did something good happen?"

Even so, Caligula can roughly guess... This is another one who hopes to gain benefits in the war.

"Yes, Your Excellency... According to His Highness Isabella's order, I will be a free army. I can fight freely according to my ideas without disturbing the army formation. I just need to follow His Highness's instructions directly. Instructions are enough."

"..."

"..."

Didn't stand in line? ! He didn't stand in line? ! ! !

"Military matters, don't easily disclose them to others, even colleagues."

Caligula said without changing his face, admonishing this loud-mouthed nobleman, but his heart was filled with turbulent waves... This is a nobleman who did not stand in line, neither belonging to the Iraqi faction nor his own side .

Nobles directly under His Royal Highness... how long ago was this?

"Your Excellency, what should I call you? Do you know how many troops are as free as you?"

Regarding Caligula's question as he weighed his words, the little nobleman looked carefree and said, "Ah, I am Toras Levi, a nobleman who has just received a reward recently... I don't know the exact number, probably A dozen or so?"

"..."

That being said, Caligula has an impression. At the ceremony some time ago... the eleven new nobles who filled the vacant baron positions, didn't they all stand in line?

Caligula didn't know when he came to the palace. He had been thinking about something until he met Her Highness Isabella... This kind of interlocking plan was probably the work of that bastard. ?

I was still put on a... It would be great if I had a firmer attitude on the matter of buying a lord before.

...

The empire is about to change.
