Chapter 763: Insiders, Confused People

In the next three days, Weilin and Elsa reached an agreement. The Kingdom of Teton allowed the 15th Army of the Fourth Legion of the Expeditionary Force to recruit soldiers in the Kingdom of Teton, and Weilin introduced the queen to his grandfather.

Weilin didn't care what kind of deal these two old foxes would reach. He just wanted to accumulate enough military merits to be promoted to earl before the end of the war.

On April 11, 9758 of the Glorious Calendar, the 230,000 troops of the 15th Army set out, and the march length stretched for hundreds of kilometers.

In the middle army, Weilin stroked Xiaohong and thought about where to recruit soldiers in the Kings Lynn region of the Kingdom of Teton.

The 15th Army has 17,383 soldiers, 11,927 holy soldiers, and the remaining 200,000 are vassal troops, including 160,000 combat soldiers, divided into four armies: the Black Rock Army, the Thousand Fortress Army, the Badak Army and the Mines Army.

When the vassal army was first formed, there were only 3,000 people.

In five years, the vassal army controlled by the 15th Army reached 200,000.

Controlling 200,000 vassal troops with 30,000 direct troops, who else in the expeditionary army can achieve this achievement except by force.

For the recruited Tetons, Weilin plans to set up a separate army, but he is in a dilemma about the selection of the generals to lead the troops.

The lower-level officers can use Ansa and Geman, but the middle-level officers and above cannot do so, otherwise the army will easily get out of control.

"Find a time to talk to my cousin and see if Adrian can be borrowed."

For the army formed by the Tetons, Weilin prefers to let people from the expeditionary army serve as the main general and deputy general, and the middle-level officers can be selected from the Crusaders.

For the first batch of Teton warriors, Weilin plans to recruit 6,000 people in the King's Lynn region and 4,000 people from the Santa Marta region, a total of 10,000 people, to form an army.

At night, the army continued to march.

Before arriving at the capital of the King's Lynn region, the army will not stay for rest.

After three days and two nights of marching, the 15th Army arrived at King's Lynn, the capital of King's Lynn.

At the invitation of the Governor of King's Lynn, Weilin led hundreds of Ice Sword Camp soldiers to King's Lynn.

Outside King's Lynn, nobles from various provinces under the jurisdiction of King's Lynn gathered here, wanting to meet Weilin and use this opportunity to send their family members to the 15th Army.

Queen Elsa raised the butcher knife in the capital, making the nobles of various territories tremble and urgently need to find new backers.

Hearing the sound of horse hooves in the distance, many nobles stopped communicating and tidied their clothes.

After a while, Weilin arrived outside the city and looked at hundreds of nobles lining up to welcome him, with a puzzled look.

"Lord Weilin, I am Rodney Strachey, the Governor of King's Lynn. On behalf of more than 30 million people in King's Lynn, I welcome your arrival." A white-haired young man smiled and bowed.

Seeing this, Weilin dismounted, came to the other party, politely returned the greeting, and said with a smile: "Sir Rodney, it's nice to meet you. I need your help to recruit soldiers in King's Lynn this time."

"Lord Weilin, please rest assured. Even if there is no order from the queen, if you want to recruit soldiers in King's Lynn, I will do my best to help you."

"Hahaha, Sir Rodney, you are an honest person, I like you."

The two exchanged greetings for a while, and then entered King's Lynn City with the support of many nobles.

In the manor, Weilin was helpless after several refusals. Under the gaze of everyone, he sat in the main seat.

Seeing this, Rodney sat aside with a smile and waved to the maid to bring the carefully prepared food.

This welcome party is different from the traditional banquet, which is to choose the way to determine the order of seats.

Looking around, according to the distance of the seats, Weilin can easily judge that those nobles have a pivotal position in King's Lynn, and those nobles are the role of foil.

Halfway through the banquet, at the right time, Rodney told the purpose of this banquet.

Weilin picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and said calmly: "Archon Rodney, I want to know whether you want to submit to Queen Elsa or choose to support her designated heir."

As soon as these words came out, the banquet instantly became quiet, and the noise disappeared without a trace.

Rodney heard this and waved his hand to let all the maids go down.

When the door was closed, Rodney stood up and bowed to Weilin.

A ninety-degree bow is the highest etiquette for a noble to respect someone in the Kingdom of Teton.

Seeing this, Weilin stood up and helped Rodney up, and said with great concern: "Archon Rodney, why are you doing this? Please sit down."

This move made the nobles present put down their wine glasses, sit upright, and look respectful.

Before Weilin helped Rodney, they only had respect for this high-ranking member of the expeditionary force.

But after Weilin took the initiative to help Rodney, they respected the expeditionary ambassador.

Rodney acted steadily, with a pleading look on his face, and said: "Lord Weilin, please guide us on the right path."

"As the eastern gateway of the Teton Central Region, Kings Lynn District, from the perspective of an observer, I know your concerns very well."

Having said this, Weilin paused and looked at the expressions of the crowd. Everyone's face was full of worries, both about their own fate and about the survival of their families.

A few months ago, thirteen families were destroyed and nearly ten thousand people were executed, which aroused their fear of the Queen of War.

The former Queen Elsa seems to be coming back, and the Storm Church, which existed as a check on her, has been destroyed.

After a few months of silence, no noble would think that she had stopped, and it could only be that she was "sharpening her knife" and waiting for the right time to destroy their family.

As for resistance, they had long lost their courage, and the compromise in the bones of the nobles always bound them.

"I can't see through Queen Elsa."

"I tell you frankly that resistance will only lead to death."

"If you are willing to listen to me, then go and pledge allegiance to the third princess, Elbera."

Everyone looked at each other, wondering why Weilin said such a thing.

In their cognition, the third princess, Elbera, was born inauspiciously and has always been an unpopular existence. Wouldn't it be faster to surrender to her?

You know, even the more favored fourth princess has "died", so can a princess who is not valued still protect them?

Through their expressions, Weilin already knew what they were thinking in their hearts.

If it weren't for that incident, he would be the same as these nobles.

But as an insider, he knew how much Elsa valued Elbella and was willing to kill her own daughter for this.
