Chapter 317 Catlin's reply - shooting himself in the foot The
newly recruited mercenary sat carefully on the chair, paying attention to every move of the Dragon Prince in front of him. He did not expect this leader of Caledor who should be extremely pressed for time. I will ask him to talk, and this talk will last close to an hour.
Imrik, who was sitting on the chair with his hands on his hands, couldn't help but smile as he looked at the still highly nervous soldier in front of him. Caledor's reputation was indeed not very good, and the training requirements for mercenaries like them during this period were also not very good. He was very strict, and he also held the title of Destroyer of the Cursed City, which made this young man very nervous all the time. The vodka on the table was not touched.
"If you don't have a mission, or it's time for you to take a break, what would you be thinking about, Raskel."
After hearing this, Raskel glanced at the Dragon Prince carefully. If it were normal, , asked Mrs. Kisri what she would do in her free time, of course she said drinking or hunting, but obviously the Dragon Prince didn't want this answer when he came to him, so he lowered his head and pondered for a moment.
"Can you provide us with some books, or let people teach? It doesn't require much advanced knowledge, but just a general understanding of some world conditions." Rascoul proposed an unrealistic possibility, that is, Looking for knowledge, and in Kislev, or in the old world, knowledge is tightly controlled by the church and the government, allowing their soldiers to be exposed to knowledge other than combat. Unless the ruler is a fool, otherwise it is impossible to do this Do.
Because knowledge means change, rulers hate this, and Tzeentch loves this.
But Imrik was waiting for this sentence. In this hour-long conversation, he had already understood the growth experience of this rough soldier. He was sent to a missionary school to study since he was a child. If this trend continues, then the most likely possibility is He became a church member, but his father was heavily fined by Boyer for failing to pay taxes. As a result, Rascal had no choice but to join the army to make up for the vacancy. But unfortunately, his father died on the first day of joining the army. He died two years later due to an outbreak of pain.
Generally speaking, it means that he has received some education and understands the dark side of this country. Although joining a mercenary is a helpless move, he must not be willing to just be a landlord or do business in the future, no matter what his personal thoughts are. , or the environment in Kislev...
"Of course, it is difficult for me to accept that my soldiers are all illiterate. I will have some books translated into Kislev and organize people to carry out literacy education." Im Rick gave the answer to Raskol. If you want to change a person, knowledge is the best thing. They will deeply believe in what they want to believe and fight for it.
"Thank you for your understanding."
At this time, Raskol sincerely thanked Imrik for his kindness. The literacy rate in Kislev may not even be 1%, and most of them are nobles and church personnel. , he was able to receive some education because he had only an only son in the family and his father's strong support.
Just when he wanted to continue asking the Dragon Prince if he could relax some employment requirements, as many people were forced to commit crimes, Mishan had already opened the camp and reminded, "
Masno has returned."
Im received the news. Rick nodded and then said to Raskol,
"I'm glad that we can reach a preliminary consensus. The Dragon Palace will not treat its soldiers badly, even human mercenaries. I still have things to deal with next."
The sensible Raskol understood. He stood up and bowed before leaving. His clenched hands were full of sweat. Only when he had a close conversation with Imrik would he understand that he was not facing an elf, but an elf. A giant dragon, the majesty revealed unintentionally makes people shudder.
The soldiers leaving the camp saw Masno and immediately saluted. In the past few days, he had roughly understood Caledor's military hierarchy. The Dragon Prince was the largest, the Champion Warrior was second, and the Dragon Prince with golden dragon wings was the second. Third, next is the normal Dragon Prince..., second to last is the war horse, and last is Mrs. Kisri. Masnuo also nodded to the soldiers who were saluting. He didn't have much thought about human beings. He was just a tool, and he didn't want to take the initiative to salute and choose to ignore them.
When he walked into the camp, he saw the prince whom he had not seen for a long time. Although he had heard the voice yesterday, he finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it with his own eyes. Then he explained the matter, "Katelin did not agree to this method and her attitude was very tough.
"
Imric waved his hand to show that he was not in a hurry, poured a glass of wine for Masnow, and then motioned to Mishan, who was standing next to him, to bring a chair over and have a drink together.
"Tell her what she said."
Masno thought for a while, imitating Katrin's tone and said,
"Kislev will not be afraid of any threats. We are grateful to Caledor for traveling thousands of miles from Ulthuan. A kind deed of support from the old world. We firmly believe that this should be the beginning of close exchanges between the two countries and making greater contributions to the ordered world. However, your country’s behavior undoubtedly chills Kislev and everyone involved in this great event. The jihadi race is heartbroken."
"Your country's behavior is undoubtedly interfering in Kislev's internal affairs. In the end, it just shot itself in the foot. As the future queen, I will never approve of such an action, Kislev. Mrs. Ree knows who led them through the cold winter and resisted the invasion of the Chaos army!"
After finishing speaking, Masnow shrugged and said that there was nothing he could do about this kind of rhetoric. Once it involves interfering in the politics of other countries, he would become Very sensitive.
But when combined with Magnus's situation, things are a little different. Now the reputation of the pious in Kislev is much higher than that of the ice witch. This also makes Katrin choose to seek the support of the empire. , and these more than a thousand mercenaries are more like a reward for Caledo's support.
Imrik also smiled, but with a cold expression. That's good. Since this woman doesn't know how to praise, then don't blame yourself for not knowing the overall situation.
To put it bluntly, the biggest beneficiary of supporting Kislev is the empire. Caledor can only find some refugees and soldiers from here at most, but the empire has an extra buffer wall. He has no interest in this cold and frozen land. The temperature is not enough.
"Very good. Since the future Czarina is unwilling to accept Caledor's kindness, it's time to leave and let people keep in touch with Tigris. We will go to Erengrad immediately." Masno nodded
. He stood up and prepared to give the order. Things in Kislev City were still difficult to unfold smoothly. On the one hand, it was Katrin's deliberate obstruction. On the other hand, the Alliance of Order forces were still here and it was difficult to do anything. But when they arrived in Erlen Gullah, I am sure you will get a satisfactory answer.
