Chapter 1285: Father Steals His Son's Girlfriend

"After three days, we will start to move camp."

"With the 26th Legion as the vanguard and the 25th Legion as the rear guard, evacuate the Flan tribal area one by one."

"Yes."

Everyone answered in unison.

"Alright, General Ignis stay, and the rest of you can disband."

Upon hearing this, everyone bowed and saluted, then left the tent in an orderly manner.

In less than a moment, there were only two people left in the tent.

"sit."

Weilin waved his hand and grabbed a chair, placed it on the left, and said to Ignis.

Seeing this, Ignis bowed his head to show respect, then sat down on the left.

After the other party sat down, Weilin didn't waste any words and went straight to the point: "General Ignis, I have a mission for you to complete."

"Marshal, please give me your orders." Ignis replied.

"I have a feeling that the Ninth Corps will be disbanded in less than ten months." Weilin raised a magic shield, bent forward slightly, lowered his voice, and said, "During this time, I hope you can find some knights from the Griffin Knight Corps and the Dragon Knight Corps who are willing to leave their hometown to develop."

Hearing this, Ignis's mouth twitched slightly.

He really wanted to tell his benefactor that as long as word spread, many knights would be willing to give up everything they had now and follow him with their families.

When the words came to his lips, Ignis looked at the faint smile on Weilin's face and suddenly understood the purpose behind this mission.

"Marshal, are you going to let me choose the officers?"

"Yes." Weilin did not hide anything and said bluntly, "My territory has a griffin knight unit, but compared with the air force of the Ninth Corps, the gap is as big as Tianze."

"A new war is coming, and I need a strong air force."

"Letting you train from scratch will not only waste your energy and time, but also make this unit unable to play a role in the next war."

"Therefore, recruiting some air knights with rich combat experience has become the first choice."

"Before the war began, I made a promise with you: if you served me for fifty years, I would give you your freedom."

"And during these fifty years, you will be the commander of my air forces."

"So, General Ignis, I've given you the authority to form a team. I hope you won't let me down."

"Marshal, I understand."

Ignis stood up and bowed solemnly in response to Weilin's trust in him.

After the conversation, Ignis said goodbye and left.

After watching the other party leave, Weilin leaned back in his chair, propped up his chin with his left hand, and murmured in a low voice: "It's a bit unreasonable for me to steal my son's girlfriend!"

"However, in order to quickly build a strong force, we have to lower the bottom line appropriately."

In this war, Weilin realized the power of air forces.

The air knight unit belonging to Qixing Territory needs to be formed, and the floating fleet also needs to be formed.

It’s a pity that so far, there is no suitable candidate for the commander of the floating fleet.

"After we go back, we will visit Claire first to see if he is willing to go to Qixingling. If that doesn't work, we can go to Grandpa to borrow someone else."

In the past, Weilin only cared about having air forces.

Now, not only do we need to have it, but we also need to be able to fight.

……

Inside the air force base, on the way to the headquarters, Ignis began to recall the knights who performed outstandingly in the war.

Recruiting people cannot be done overnight; it needs to be done slowly.

In addition to this, Ovia needs to be told before the officers are selected.

Ignis didn't have the face to do such a thing as digging out his son's backbone behind his back.

Before he knew it, Ignis was in front of his tent. He looked up at the two guards and said, "Send Ovia to see me."

"Yes, General."

The guard standing on the left responded and then quickly left the place.

Ignis opened the curtain and entered the tent. He came to the desk, pulled out the list of the Dragon Knights and the two Griffin Knights, sat in the main seat, and began to read through it.

Based on information such as place of origin, age, family background and personality, Ignis began preliminary screening.

Half an hour later, Ovia came to the tent, straightened his clothes, straightened his chest, and walked in.

Although I don’t know why my father called me here, it must be something important.

Hearing the footsteps, Ignis put down the roster in his hand, looked at Ovia, and said in a relaxed tone: "Here they come."

"Father, do you have any instructions?"

Ignis chose to ignore Ovia's address, pointed to the wooden chair next to the desk, and said, "Sit down."

Seeing this, Ovia was a little excited inside, but still looked respectful on the surface. After sitting down on the left side of the desk, he looked up at his father with a hint of inexplicable meaning in his eyes.

"I called you here this time because I need to tell you something."

"Father, just tell me directly." Ovia said after hearing this.

Hearing the title "father" being called for the second time, Ignis looked at Ovia deeply, and finally sighed. He still did not choose to correct it, and briefly told Ovia about his plan to poach someone else.

Ovia looked at Ignis with a hint of curiosity in her eyes, and mustered up the courage to ask: "Father, did the marshal ask you to do this?"

"It's my own choice." Ignis lowered his head slightly and answered.

Watching her father's actions, Ovia instantly realized that he was lying.

My mother once said that when my father lied, he always couldn't help but lower his head.

As for the degree of lying, it depends on the angle at which the father lowers his head.

"Father, if you want some suitable knights as officers to build a new Griffin Knights, I have a few candidates who can give you some reference."

Ignis was a little stunned by Ovia's unconventional behavior, but then he came to his senses and whispered, "Go ahead."

Ovia did not notice the embarrassment on Ignis's face because of the mask. After getting a positive answer, she began to explain the candidate she had in mind.

"Olek, deputy captain of the third squadron of the second battalion, high-ranking silver, comes from a small merchant family in Gagaro County, Kanata Province. He has two older brothers and two younger sisters. He is the third child. He has a somewhat rough personality and speaks bluntly to his superiors. He cannot stand some of the affairs of the upper echelons of the army."

"However, this person always rushes to the front in every war. Scars are all over his body, and he also has many hidden injuries in his body. Therefore, it is very difficult for him to advance. He is 83 years old this year, but he is still a high-level silver level."

"If you, father, can heal the hidden wounds in Orlek's body and help him become a golden knight, he will become your loyal follower."

"After all, his personality is very compatible with yours."

"The second one is called Skaon, from the first battalion..."
