Chapter 301 Interlude
Fighting with those old foxes for power and profit all day has already made her rack her brains, tremble, and walk on thin ice. How can she have the energy to distract herself?
By the time the situation in the Lancelot royal family stabilized, her mind had been honed to be much more mature than ordinary people, and she was well-known.
Ordinary people have no chance to approach her, and most of the young nobles who approach her actively have other ulterior motives.
No matter which aspect you start from, you need to strictly guard against death, and you will naturally fall into the current situation.
Even so, there were still a lot of rumors about her. Before Sean came to Valesta, it was rumored that the Princess Regent was not interested in men and preferred women.
Such rumors appeared because the Princess Regent was surrounded by outstanding beauties like San Qiangwei, and there were people who deliberately smeared and spread rumors to make trouble.
Although the princess regent is now in a high position and authority, she still has many political enemies.
Sean feels the same about this now, because he is obviously on the side of the princess regent, and will be naturally hostile by her political opponents, such as opening a shop, and there are many secret resistances.
Fortunately, the leader of the Yongye army is now rich and powerful, and the products are genuine. Using money to clear the way, most of the resistance created deliberately can be easily solved, and even the princess regent doesn't need to go out.
Don't think that the lords and nobles were canonized by the Lancelot royal family, so they dare not fight against the royal family.
Lords and nobles are known as the most solid cornerstone of the Byron Alliance. It is troublesome to confer titles, and it is also troublesome to lose them.
Without catching the clear cause of rebellion, one cannot arbitrarily cut the title, otherwise all the nobles and nobles will be in danger and unite to fight against tyranny.
In the history of the Lancelot royal family, there are not no such records.
The fifth of the Lancelot royal family is a well-known tyrant. He not only squeezed his subjects without restraint, but also canonized or cut knights according to his own preferences, tortured and killed those nobles, and made the entire Asia Minor plain a mess. Everyone Danger.
Those lords and nobles couldn't bear it anymore, and finally rose up.
Of course, it was not the Lancelot royal family that they rebelled against, but Lancelot V, who overthrew him from power and elected his younger brother to power.
That's why the Princess Regent's New Deal has been tried and tested, and she dare not enforce it.
That would affect the interests of most lords and nobles. It is hard to guarantee that they will not unite and overthrow themselves from power in the name of the Qing emperor, and then support Prince Laurie to come to power.
This kind of support usually does not have any good intentions, and those lords and nobles have to take this opportunity to use their hands to expand their family influence.
The existing military officers of the Lancelot royal family took advantage of the trend when Lancelot V was overthrown, and now they have become the kingdoms of the Lancelot royal family's territory. things are very troublesome.
In addition, there is an invisible force dormant in the background - Holy See of Ether.
After arriving in Valesta, Sean deeply felt how much influence the Holy See of Ether has and how deep it has penetrated into the Byron Alliance.
In the whole of Vallesta, at least one-third of the people are believers of the God of Truth, and the name of the God must be sung when they enter and leave. It is more convenient to see them in churches and churches. It is no exaggeration to say that they can be seen on every street. figure.
The weekly big worship is the grandest event in Valesta.
Not to mention those cardinals, even ordinary priests are very detached and respected.
Back then, the Princess Regent dared to touch this behemoth. It is true that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers.
In the final analysis, the current situation of the Princess Regent is all the aftermath of that incident, and the Holy See of Saint Ether is behind the scenes, instigating those lords and nobles to fight against the Princess Regent.
This is their usual trick.
To discredit the relationship between the Princess Regent and himself, even if they didn't do it, they probably have their shadow behind it.
After all, Valesta, the capital of the kingdom, is not the leader of the Eternal Night Army. Sean is tied up here, and he is unwilling to expose those eagle eyes who have finally been inserted.
Otherwise, Sean will definitely let them try it, the real public opinion method is powerful.
He is now Guojiang Qianglong, so he can only do it honestly.
Speaking of which, this is the first time that I have been treated as a soft food. Do I still have such capital?
Various messy messages flashed through his mind, but the smile on Sean's face remained the same: "I have come to resign from Her Royal Highness, and I will return to the territory in a short time. I will not have the opportunity to come to Valesta again in a short time. , Your Highness, if there is anything you particularly like, you can tell me, and I will send someone to bring some over."
Sean did not directly defend Prince Laurie. This kind of thing is getting darker and darker, and the minds of young people are more elusive, especially when this kind of mind is not fully mature.
If you tell him bluntly, I don't like his sister, and I'm not interested in his sister.
His first reaction might be, you dare to look down on my sister, this is a humiliation to the royal family, I will kill you.
It doesn't matter if you like it, because people are here to beat him, so that he won't have unreasonable thoughts.
Anyway, it won't please you.
Although the chance of such an extreme reaction is very small, it has to be guarded against. After all, Sean doesn't know much about this Prince Laurie, so be careful in everything.
"It's best not to come again." Prince Laurie was quite satisfied with Sean's answer, but the production of the leader of Yongye Army was still quite tempting to him, and he added, "I am very impressed with the tactical football you sent I'm interested, but the rules are a bit complicated, you'd better send a knowledgeable professional to help guide you."
"No problem." Sean directly ignored Prince Laurie's first request, and only responded to his second request, "As soon as two weeks, or as late as a month, I will send the fastest An excellent tactical rugby player will guide His Highness, no, I will let him bring a professional team over, this kind of confrontation ***, without strong opponents, will be very slow."
"That would be the best." Prince Laurie blushed with excitement, and the bean of youth and beauty on the tip of his nose was shining.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid Your Highness Princess won't like such sports." The attendant next to Prince Laurie reminded again in a low voice.
"This..." Prince Laurie's excited expression froze instantly.
He completely forgot about this, the Princess Regent has packed his daily classes and didn't give him so much time to play.
Naturally, he would not be allowed to engage in any football team.
Xiao En smiled beside him and said, "If Your Highness is talking about other games, I really can't speak in front of Her Highness, but for this kind of tactical football, I am confident that I can persuade Her Highness to allow Her Highness to play. , and even encourage more play.”
"Really?" Prince Laurie stared at Sean suspiciously. He really didn't believe that he still had such a great ability. When it came to his own education, the Princess Regent was the most rigid nun, and she couldn't tolerate any flexibility.
It was impossible to allow him to play, let alone encourage him to play.
"Really." Sean nodded solemnly, and said straightforwardly: "Do you know why it is called tactical football instead of football? Because it is designed for military training, it looks like a ball game , In fact, there are many tactics used in it, which greatly exercises the tactical coordination ability of the participants, and it is fun to learn. Empty talk is useless, so let's do it, I will send two tactical football teams over to play in front of Her Royal Highness. Her Royal Highness will understand it in a friendly match, but Her Royal Highness needs to be responsible for the matter of the venue."
"No problem." Prince Laurie said confidently, patting his chest.
The tactical football they call is a variant of American football.
There are very few entertainments that have been formed in this world, but people's nerves cannot be broken, especially in the army.
A group of energetic young people gather together. If the energy cannot be vented, it is inevitable that there will be fights, gatherings, gambling and other relatively bad ways to pass the time.
In order to solve this problem, Sean made some sports that were more confrontational and suitable for the military, such as football and basketball in his previous life.
What is more interesting is that the most popular sports are not football and basketball, but rugby, which is famous for its casualty rate in the previous life and has a relatively narrow audience.
Thinking about it again, it’s perfectly normal. The casualties caused by rugby are nothing in this world. In an environment that advocates force, collective confrontation is fierce, and rugby, which emphasizes teamwork and stronger cooperation, is naturally nothing. easier to accept.
The equipment is even more readily available, as long as there is a ball, the rest can be made of military armor.
Those smart low-level officers in the Yongye army have opened up their minds and made further improvements to rugby. Not only the number of people, but also the rules have been changed to a certain extent. The changes are more in line with local characteristics and are also suitable for military training.
After all, there are inhuman existences like knights and great knights in this world, and the core of tactics needs to revolve around them.
They must also be strictly limited.
If the opposing team is composed of great knights, then there is no need to play, it will be a crush without any suspense.
As for the champion knight.
Sorry, they are not welcome in this kind of game.
Because once the champion knight enters the field, the others will become out-and-out decorations, unable to stop or keep up.
Therefore, a team with a big knight is called a first-class tactical football team.
There is no big knight in the team, only the knight, which is called the second-level tactical football team.
The team only has the Cavaliers, and it is called the C-level tactical football team.
As for those who don't even have retinue knights, they are not of the first-rate amateur level, and it is not worth wasting saliva.
According to the number of tactical core players in the team, that is, the number of big knights, knights, and retinue knights, there are more clear divisions.
Confrontation in small levels is still possible, but don't think about it in large levels.
Even if it is led by a big knight, unless it is a second-tier tactical football team composed entirely of knights, it will be difficult to resist.
However, most of the time this will not happen.
It is understandable that a big knight leads two or three knights, and the rest are all retinue knights charging.
It would be unrealistic for a big knight to lead more than a dozen knights to charge without the retinue knights, and it would be a waste of resources.
The big knight breaks the hole, the knight is responsible for covering and supporting the big hole, and the retinue knight is responsible for expanding the results of the battle.
This is the most correct fighting mode.
The distribution of members of the tactical football team led by Yongye Army is based on this.
Unconventional fighting methods are not within the scope of their consideration.
Now it is not only a routine training method for the Yongye military leader, but also a method for different guards to exchange feelings.
It is really common for hundreds of guards who are stationed relatively close to spontaneously hold a friendly match.
Joint blocking, group breakthrough, single penetration... They have all played tricks, and a group of soldiers who are very talented in this area have emerged.
In order to promote military-civilian relations and inspire the spirit of martial arts, ordinary people are usually not prohibited from watching. Those soldiers with strength and a certain talent for acting have already gained a certain reputation and have a lot of fans. They can already be called the first batch of Ashaen sports. star.
Prince Lowry's interest in tactical football was both unexpected and logical.
After all, he is young and energetic, so it is normal to be interested in this kind of confrontational sport.
What's more, tactical football has been changed by Yong Yejun to a specious, practical value and fun.
Xiao En's daring to smack his chest to Prince Laurie was naturally based on his knowledge of the Princess Regent.
These days, to be a qualified ruler requires both civil and military skills. Even though the possibility of Prince Laurie going to the battlefield in the future is zero, it does not hinder learning in advance.
But it is impossible to send Prince Laurie to the battlefield. This kind of tactical football, which is a little dangerous but controllable, is naturally the most ideal.
At that time, not only Prince Laurie's personal ability, but also organizational ability will be tested.
The Princess Regent is a smart person, so as long as she performs for her, she will naturally be able to taste the pros and cons from it.
Of course, Sean would not let go of the opportunity to please Prince Laurie. After all, he is the legal heir to the Lancelot royal family, and he will be on stage in a few years.
"If there is nothing else, I'll take my leave first." Sean was neither humble nor overbearing from beginning to end, even if he wanted to please him, he didn't have to be humble.
"Well, the sooner you send your tactical football team, the better." Prince Laurie urged.
"I will take care of it as soon as possible, please rest assured, Your Highness the Prince."
"It's a pity that he is a foreigner." Prince Laurie smacked his lips, and left with his servant boy with a look of regret.
The last nonsensical words made Sean dumbfounded.
It is not difficult to understand the main purpose of this sentence to contact the other party to block oneself.
If he is not from Andis, he is eligible to pursue the princess regent. Of course, this is the personal standard of Prince Laurie.
It was just a tactical rugby to sell his old sister. If he used all means, wouldn't he ask himself to be his brother-in-law and help him make plans to pursue the princess regent?
Sophie Liya's bright face flashed in Sean's mind. Judging from the current contact, whether it is in terms of character or ability, it is absolutely more than enough to make her the hostess of the leader of the Eternal Night Army.
It's a pity that the difficulty factor is too high, and it's not something I can consider at the moment.
The most important thing right now is to take down the Swamp of Despair first.
Sean shook his head, throwing these things out of his brain.
He returned directly to the Explorer, without stopping for a moment, and took only two assault warships on the way back.
The remaining assault warships will return together when all the merchant ships have sold their goods and are filled with Valesta's goods.
This time, there was no merchant ship full of cargo to drag it down. Even if it was going upstream, the Explorer at full speed was still not too slow. It only took a short week to return directly to the Yongye Army Commander.
Compared with the full speed during the day, the speed of the Explorer dropped by nearly half at night.
The lighting facilities are too poor, and the risk factor of night navigation is relatively high. Fortunately, the number of boats on the Jacob River is not too many, otherwise they would not dare to sail at night.
However, the Yongye military leader has already begun to think of a way to solve this problem.
The Explorer had just left Valesta, and it took less than half a day for the news to reach the capital of the Kingsley family.
The king's capital is different from the leader of the Yongye army. This place is a huge sieve with holes everywhere. The news here will spread throughout the Byron Alliance in half a month. It is a veritable capital of public opinion.
Not to mention that the Kingsley family's concern for Sean has never stopped from the beginning to the end. Whether it is the actions taken by the leader of the Eternal Night Army here or Sean's every move, they have all been sent to Duke Buck by the fastest means. hands.
The name of the red-tailed viper is not called for nothing. It is his consistent style to make a decision before acting.
From today to the end of the month, continue to double update, no noon!
