Chapter 687: Out of the Army (Part 1)

Blue Tu Island

It covers an area of ​​120 square kilometers and has a rugged terrain. It is a mountain range and a southern mountainous area from north to south, separated by fertile plains.

It was occupied by pirates, but now it is controlled by Xiusenya and becomes his territory.

With a population of 2,700 people, the main crops are wheat, tobacco, and olive forests, which became the territory of the prince's upstart.

"Where is the fleet we sent out before now?" In the villa, Prince Xiusenya was sitting elegantly on the extremely gorgeous soft collapse, while tasting the wine while asking his subordinates.

Before his collapse, there were more than a dozen people standing, including knights, scholars, mages, burly, and thin, but the expressions on their faces were extremely nervous.

"Your Highness, the fleet sent out is less than one hundred nautical miles away from the island, and is almost back to Lantu Island." Hearing the prince's question, a moment of silence appeared in the hall. An older scholar took a step forward, respectfully bowed to the prince, and replied.

"It's very fast. They used the time they spent on this maritime patrol, which was much faster than the last time." Prince Xiusenya gracefully pursed his lips and looked at the deputy commander of the navy standing beside him: "Halloka, tell me, what will they get when they send a fleet out to clear the pirates this time? Can they clear the pirates in the surrounding areas in one fell swoop?"

"This... under the command of Your Highness, the soldiers of the Fourth Fleet will be able to pacify the nearby scattered islands and completely clear this sea area."

I don’t know what the purpose of Prince Xiusenya’s words were for, but this was always true. When the deputy commander of the Navy, Harroka, saw the prince’s gaze falling on him, he quickly stood up respectfully.

Prince Xiusenya's eyes flashed over Harroka's body and looked at the other people.

They were several staff officers of the Fourth Fleet, and at this time they also looked reserved.

Seeing his subordinates so restrained, Prince Xiusenya couldn't help but sigh, put down the wine glass in his hand, and said, "What are you afraid of? What do I treat you on weekdays?"

"Your Highness is very nice to us!"

"We will remember the kindness of Your Highness in our hearts!"

When everyone saw Prince Xiusenya sighing, his face was unhappy, they quickly stepped forward and expressed their loyalty.

"Forget it." Xiu Senya waved her hand, with a hint of disgust on her face. "I know what you are afraid of. In the past few days, I have indeed killed a few people on the island and locked up some people... But you must remember that I am not a killer person, nor is it a mean and heartless person. I will naturally remember who is loyal to me."

"But, I've been flirting with each other, and I've been with me and sold to others. Even though I'm thinking about the old love, I can't tolerate it. You should know these!"

"Yes, we understand that we will never betray Your Highness!" More than a dozen people saluted to the top and said in unison, but because they were too unison, the scene seemed too superficial.

He sighed softly again, Prince Xiusenya got up from the soft collapse and walked down. When he fell by several subordinates, it was obvious that he was not very happy to see their slightly tight bodies.

Why can't he have a group of subordinates who can be absolutely assured?

I think Xiu Senya learned management skills since childhood and had a good idea of ​​how to win people's hearts, but why did he always get better than that person?

No matter how strict he defends himself and how clever he buys, there will still be people abducted by higher interests in his camp.

Is this person not caring about these things at all, or is it that the means in this regard are more skillful than him?

Shake your head, not.

Romon is the key to being a real leader, and he is also a powerful druid.

Although he was a prince, his actual power was not as strong as Romon before he was awarded the title of "Duke of Ivina".

"Duke Avina" is one of the two great dukes in the kingdom and is also the title and territory of the crown princes of all dynasties.

Thinking of this, Prince Xiusenya felt a little uncomfortable. Not only did he feel sad that he could not have a group of subordinates who could truly respect him, but it was also because the dignified prince actually had less than a viscount's control.

However, this is not just the case with the Kingdom of Esk, but almost all kingdoms are like this.

The royal family must maintain the integrity of their territory in order to maintain the throne. If every prince and princess can obtain a feudal title, the royal family will decline if those generations continue.

Thinking of several royal families whose territory was scattered and exhausted, although the nominal kingship was retained due to God, there was actually no power. Prince Xiusenya shook his head again.

Although the influence of gods is huge, it is not absolute in the world. Even if the descendants of God cannot control their territory and strength, then interests and power will only be empty on the surface.

I hope this battle can enhance my strength for myself and the royal family!

"Your Highness?"

"Huh?" While thinking, the voice of Harloka, the deputy commander of the Fourth Fleet, came from his ears. Xiusenya turned her head and looked over.

"Your Highness, you just received the news that the fleet has returned." Harroka replied carefully.

Seeing a servant kneeling in front of him, Prince Xiusenya nodded: "I understand, you go down!"

Let the messenger retreat, Prince Xiusenya sat back on the collapse and looked at his left and right: "This time the Fourth Fleet sent a total of 80% of its troops to patrol, hoping to have some results and provide a good premise for the stability of Lantu Island."

After saying that, he stood up again and said to these subordinates: "You go down first, and I will summon you after the officials of the fleet report the matter."

"Yes, Your Highness." More than a dozen people were obviously relieved and quickly left.

Seeing these people walking out, Prince Xiusenya sat in her seat and couldn't calm down for a long time.

Just a few days ago, because Prince Hailancha knew his strength clearly and forced him to send troops, he was furious and sent people to investigate the spies on the island.

As a result, he pulled out many people who were bribed by His Highness Hailancha, just like pulling out radish. Although these people were not core tasks, the number of people in the middle level still made Prince Xiusenya angry. What made the prince angry the most was that there were many people who were wizards.

In order to win people's hearts, the prince still enfeoffed a large amount of fields on Lantu Island, turning them into their own official vassals.

However, there were several vassals who betrayed the lord and colluded with outsiders.

When the king was angry, his corpses were everywhere. When the prince was angry, he was bleeding.

He ordered that the betrayed vassals, together with their relatives, should be sent to the gallows. For a moment, hundreds of people swayed on the shelf.

This is because, no matter what their previous identity was, they are now his vassals, and there is no need to pass the court or the king to death.

Secondly, the other spies were imprisoned one by one, waiting for the final judgment.

In the past, Prince Xiusenya always gave people the image of a graceful and elegant nobleman. No one expected that when he killed someone, he would not blink.

When the people who were scared by his actions were summoned by him these days, they were all cautious, fearing that they would provoke His Highness, who was angry, would bring disaster to themselves.

But in fact, Prince Xiusenya just wanted to kill one and warn her, not really liked to kill people so much.

Thinking about the fearful expression when his subordinates met him just now, for some reason, Prince Xiusenya felt not pleasure, but more than complacent, but more about emptiness.

He let out a deep breath in his chest, Prince Xiusenya ordered outside: "Let the representatives of the fleet officers who arrived in the port come to see me and report on the matter."

"Yes, Your Highness." The messenger trotted out.

After a while, a chaotic sound of footsteps came from a distance, and when approaching the hall, I deliberately slowed down.

Prince Xiusenya knew that the fleet officers had come in, so he immediately let them in.

There were five people coming in, each of whom was the core figures in the fleet. When they saw Prince Xiusenya sitting on it, they all bowed respectfully.

"Okay, there is no need to be polite. How is the situation?" Prince Xiusenya asked them to get up, and then asked about the gains from going to sea this time.

"Your Highness, we have swept through several nearby pirate nests. I dare not say that we have completely cleared them. At least in a short time, all of them have been wiped out."

After listening to the report, Xiu Senya closed her eyes and thought for a while, and then said, "So, there will be no more pirates invading within a thousand nautical miles nearby, right?"

"It's like this now, Your Highness." said the leader.

"Well, this kind of gain is not bad. Thank you for your hard work this time. Let's go down and take a rest first. In a few days, we will go to the battle again. At that time, you will have to work hard." Prince Xiusenya said with a smile.

"It is our honor to be able to do things for Your Highness!" Several naval officers answered in unison.

"Well, the banquet hall has prepared a celebration banquet for you. You can go there first, I will arrive later." Prince Xiusenya asked several officers to retreat first, and sat alone in his seat, slightly ecstatic and dazed.

"This expedition is really a headache." The slender fingers gently tapped on the forehead a few times, and Prince Xiusenya's elegant smile disappeared. In other words, he looked slightly annoyed: "However, now the nearby area has been swept away, so someone will not be able to use pirates. In this way, even if I go out, my Blue Earth Island will be basically safe."

As for pretending to be a pirate and attack directly, please, this is a world where there are gods, and it is okay to go against the edge. This direct method cannot be played by the prince, and the prince did not consider this at all.

"Brother, do you really think I will fail or lose my strength?" Prince Xiusenya felt uncomfortable when he was framed this time: "I will let you know that I am a person who judges the situation!"

Prince Xiusenya is not a mediocre person, so he naturally understands that everything has its disadvantages and advantages. If he does it well this time, he will add bricks and tiles to his kingly path. Of course, the premise is to maintain his strength. If he loses all his money for other countries, he will lose all his life, not to mention that he will not be able to get the throne, even the king will not like him in the future.

——Why, you are fighting for other countries with the strength of our country. Are there such a stupid politician?

However, there will not be too few countries that will send troops to reinforce this time. He can go over and make friends with some people, which will be of great benefit to his future.

Thinking of this, Prince Xiusenya stood up and strode outside.
