Chapter 501 502. The Siren’s Song
Looking at the commendation letter on the table, General Kempfred remained silent...
The last General Logistics Officer, Lord Lucius, was dismissed because he made no achievements in the Battle of Queen Ewenni Islands.
When the Silver Pegasus Corps first occupied the Partington plane, this plane rich in magic herbs did not show great value.
But when the imperial merchant ships arrived at the west coast of the Elf Continent, the price of magic herbs in the Elf Continent continued to rise, and the Partington plane also rose accordingly. Now I don’t know how many nobles in the Corps have set their eyes on the position of General Logistics Officer.
General Kempfred stood out from many competitors. In addition to the family’s support behind General Kempfred, another reason is that General Kempfred is a typical moderate on the issue of half-blood elves.
At present, at least 95% of the residents in the Partington plane are half-blood elves.
Although the Silver Pegasus Corps nominally controls the Partington plane, due to the Battle of the Queen Eweni Islands, the Corps has transferred all its troops to the Queen Eweni Islands, so that currently only a small number of management personnel in the Partington plane are still Silver Moon Elves, and the half-blood elves are gradually becoming managers.
Therefore, the Silver Pegasus Corps needs an official who has a mild attitude towards the issue of half-blood elves to govern the Partington plane.
This is the main reason why Kempfred can become the Chief of Logistics.
In the Battle of the Queen Eweni Islands, the mine guards led by Roy became the only unit to preserve the dignity of the Partington plane.
Although this commendation letter came a little late, it is at least an affirmation of the mine guards by the Corps.
The only controversial point is that this is a unit composed of half-blood elf warriors.
Some senior officials of the Silver Pegasus Corps have doubts about this...
...
In the camp of the Padstow City Defense Guard
Roy came early, and Captain Berkeley was training a group of half-blood elf guards in martial arts on the playground.
Seeing Roy coming to the barracks, Captain Berkeley threw the teaching stick to the instructor behind him, walked quickly towards Roy, and took him to the office.
"Captain Berkeley, you are so anxious to see me, is there something important?"
Roy asked Captain Berkeley, still thinking about transporting the primary magic herbs in the warehouse to Partington Island.
He had already made an appointment with the carriage and horse company to transport the primary magic herbs to the central square in the morning.
"I have two news about you, one good news and one bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?" Captain Berkeley leaned against the window and poured Roy a glass of water.
"Then listen to the bad news first!" Roy said.
"The Elf Elder Council of Buenos City has passed the accusation against you. At least half of the members of the Elf Elder Council think that you have been derelict in your duty in this matter, especially since the other party is a descendant of the Silver Moon Elf nobles, so you are required to write a detailed written report on this matter. It is estimated that the report notice will be sent in the near future." Captain Berkeley said.
Roy was prepared for this matter, so he was not surprised to hear Captain Berkeley say this.
"I guess the investigation team has entered the Partington plane, and may even go to the Nicobar Mountains on the Pagisto Plateau to investigate and look for evidence. You should pay more attention recently."
Roy said indifferently:
"If they want to investigate, let them investigate. This matter is very simple. The owner of the Abil mine died in battle while fleeing for fear of crime. This is the fact."
"What I want to say... is not these. I mean that when those investigators enter the Pagisto Plateau, you should try your best to let them know how the group of mine owners oppressed the elf miners. It is best to find more evidence of the crimes of the Abil mine owner. You have to make those investigators believe that Abil is a slave trader who does all kinds of evil on the Pagisto Plateau."
Captain Berkeley leaned close to Roy and whispered in his ear.
"I know, I will find a way to prove this." Roy said.
Captain Berkeley smiled and asked, "Do you want to hear good news?"
"Of course!" Roy said with some anticipation.
"The Silver Pegasus Military's commendation for you should have been sent to the Silver Pegasus Military in Padstow City. I guess you will receive a notice soon. I heard that you may be promoted this time!" Captain Berkeley said to Roy.
"Captain Berkeley, do you want to know why I came to you so early?" Roy took the opportunity to ask back.
"What can you do with me... Hey! You are not going to cut in line to enter the plane portal again, how much cargo is there this time? If the cargo is too much, I suggest you take advantage of the night to transport it from the portal, so that it will not attract too much attention." Captain Berkeley reminded Roy in a low voice.
"The quantity of cargo this time is a bit large, so I came to say hello to you!" Roy replied.
Roy's trade license on the Partington plane was issued by Earl Swinburne himself. On the Partington plane, only the Silver Pegasus Military and Roy can transport the supplies here to the Elf Continent.
Captain Berkeley naturally would not care about Roy's supplies, and agreed casually.
When Captain Berkeley arrived in front of the portal in the central square at noon, he saw that in the northwest corner of the square, the primary magic herbs that Roy was preparing to transport to the Elf Continent were piled up like a hill.
Roy was checking out with the carriage dealer at the edge of the square. Captain Berkeley looked at these elementary magic herbs and asked in surprise:
"Are these primary magic herbs yours?"
Roy nodded and said:
"I cooperated with a local magic herbal medicine dealer. He got almost all these low-level magic herbs from the Blackwater Swamp..."
Captain Berkeley didn't ask any further questions, turned around and came to the portal, and communicated with the portal guards in person.
Nowadays, these portal guards are almost all mixed-blood elf warriors from the city defense group.
So even if Captain Berkeley doesn't come, there won't be any portal guard, Boss Karoy's goods.
A large number of primary magic herbs were sent to Partington Island, and Roy transported these primary magic herbs to the Silver Pegasus Legion's supply ship. This ship will set off tonight and will arrive at Castletown Port early tomorrow morning.
Roy did not return to Castleton Port with the ship, but wrote a letter to Claire and Woods each, instructing them to pick up the goods at Castleton Port.
…
Sure enough, just as Captain Berkeley said, Commander Kempfred summoned Roy on the third day after Roy arrived in Padstow City.
This notice was sent to Roy by the mixed-blood elf warriors guarding the city.
If this notice had been sent an hour later, Roy might have left Padstow City with Miss Tiffany.
Now that he had received a summons from Commander Kempfred, Roy could only come to the Silver Pegasus Military Headquarters in Padstow City again.
Walking up the familiar stairs, Roy was already well-known in Padstow City. Many officers and logistics staff in the Silver Pegasus Military Department knew Roy, and some Silver Moon elves even took the initiative to come forward. Say hello to Roy.
Roy walked to the door of the Director-General's office to wait, and was summoned by Director-General Kempfred not long after.
Chief Kempfred sat on the chair behind his desk, crossed his hands on the table, and looked at Roy seriously.
"Roy, the leader of the Pagisto Plateau Mine Guard Group, has met the Chief Executive."
Roy stood in front of his desk and saluted the new logistics chief.
"Are you Roy? I know you, but I didn't expect you to be so young. How is the situation on the Pagisto Plateau now? If you need support from the military in terms of supplies, try to submit some written applications, as long as they meet the needs of the army I can sign the regulations here for you.”
Chief Kempfred's voice was neither fast nor slow, and he was observing Roy while speaking.
"Thank you, Mr. Commander, for taking care of me!"
Roy quickly thanked him.
Director Kempfred then pushed the commendation notice in front of Roy and motioned for him to pick it up and read it.
Roy picked up the notice and read it, only to realize that he had received a Silver Pegasus Medal of Freedom inexplicably, and he had no idea what the medal could be used for.
Then he saw the appointment letter from the Silver Pegasus Military Department. Roy was promoted from the leader of the mine guard regiment to the governor of Pagisto Plateau...
This is somewhat beyond Roy's expectation. It seems that the Silver Pegasus Legion will not send troops to the Partington plane in the short term.
Roy stood in front of Chief Kempfred. After thinking for a moment, he felt that the information about Sun Island Bay should be disclosed. He hesitated before saying:
"Speaking of which, the Mine Guard Group does need the support of the legion."
"Currently, the main forces of the legion are concentrated on the Queen Egwene Islands, so I hope that the legion can support some military supplies, such as feather arrows and elf biscuits."
Chief Kempfred did not expect that he was just being polite to Roy, but Roy actually climbed up along the bamboo pole.
Roy very quickly took out a map showing the Pagisto Plateau and the Griffin Barrier Mountains.
Under the map, there is obviously a bay of Sun Island.
Roy pointed to a woodland in Sun Island Bay and introduced to Chief Kempfred:
"The mine guard group passed through the hills and mountains and the Qianren Mountains, and arrived at the Sun Island Bay in the south of the Griffin Barrier Mountains a month ago."
"Currently, the legion is stationed in the jungle on the northern coast of the bay, and is in a stalemate with the fish-man spirits on Sun Island."
"The main reason why we came to the north coast jungle is to help the mixed-blood elven residents living here."
"They have been oppressed by the Gulf murlocs every day for a long time. In order to let the mixed-blood elf residents here have the north coast, the guard army decided to go to war against the Gulf murlocs of Sun Island..."
Roy slowly introduced the current situation of the mine guards. Apparently, the mine guards were developing territory on the Partington plane.
In this case, the Silver Pegasus Legion will give more support to the mine guard group.
Commander Kemp Fred looked at the young half-elf who was talking eloquently in front of him, watching him point to a hand-drawn map and describe his battle plan clearly and concisely.
Chief Kemp Fred discovered that this half-elf now showed amazing military talent and was extremely aggressive, actively advocating the development of unknown areas of land...
At this moment, a theory on the threat of mixed-blood elves that he had seen a long time ago actually appeared in his mind.
Chief Kemp Fred never expected that the cake after the victory in the Battle of the Evening Islands would not satisfy Roy's appetite...
Based on the current location of his guard group, he not only wants to control the area around the hills and mountains and the Qianren Mountains, but he also wants to point his sword at the Sun Island Bay.
…
In October, Roy finally took Kaka's griffin back to the mine guard camp in Sun Island Bay. This time, Miss Tiffany and Mrs. Winnie's Night Blade Leopard also accompanied him.
In Miss Tiffany's eyes, there is no sea in the Partington plane.
Kaka took Roy directly from the No. 3 Pass of the Griffin Barrier Mountains. When the griffin rushed out of the Griffin Barrier Mountains, Miss Tiffany saw a Sun Island Bay surrounded by two long and narrow lands on the back of the griffin.
Because it had to cross the Griffin Barrier Mountains, Kaka's griffin flew very high.
In clear weather, the entire Sun Island Bay appeared in Miss Tiffany's eyes very clearly.
It was like a sapphire, inlaid in a green sea.
"This bay is so beautiful..."
Miss Tiffany sat on the back of the griffin and couldn't help but praise loudly.
"But those fishmen are also very fierce!"
It was little Eugene's griffin, carrying Miss Tiffany, and he couldn't help but say to Miss Tiffany.
"Those brainless fishmen will not do anything smart. The real threat to you is actually the sirens standing behind the fishmen..." Miss Tiffany said.
...
Roy just returned to Sun Island Bay and heard the squadron leaders of the mine guards report something.
Recently, in the northern coast of Sun Island Bay, some faint siren songs can often be heard at night.
These siren songs have confused more than a dozen half-blood elves into walking into the sea in a daze and drowning in the sea.
Recently, the siren songs have made the half-blood elf warriors in the camp panic...
Although the management of the camp is very strict, there are still half-blood elf warriors who are constantly being tricked.
The fishmen hiding in Sun Island are also ready to move again. A large number of fishmen are hiding in the coral reef area, obviously wanting to take the opportunity to regain control of the north coast.
This time, Miss Tiffany came to the camp of the mine guards and went to the beach that night to investigate where the sirens were hiding and singing...
In fact, there is a biggest flaw in the singing of these sirens, which the half-blood elves are not aware of.
That is, the singing of sirens can only confuse male elves, and has no effect on female elves.
That is why Miss Tiffany took the Night Blade Leopard to the beach at night. Roy was a little worried about Miss Tiffany's safety. Unfortunately, the half-blood elf warriors of the mine guards who came to the Sun Island Bay this time were all male...
