Chapter 1186 Allen's Advice

This deep middle-aged male voice, as if it had some magic power, made Otto's body stop directly.

Otto put down his hand that had half opened the curtain, then frowned, turned around, and cast a look full of displeasure in the voice:

"Humph, isn't this Allen Jones who has lost another battle and fled back in disgrace? What do you mean by that sentence just now?"

The owner of the middle-aged male voice just now was Allen who had just escaped from Pendragon.

After being defeated by Su Cheng again under the city of Pendragon, Allen and Eber ran non-stop towards the Rhineland Plain, which was the safest place in the Britannia Empire for them at present. First release

Although the journey was a bit long, Allen and Eber were lucky. They did not encounter any accidents along the way and arrived at the Frankish army camp smoothly 2 days ago.

After arriving at the Frankish army camp, Allen stayed, while Eber did not stay for long. After a short rest in the camp, he set off directly to return home.

After convincing Allen to launch a mutiny, Eberl's mission was completed and he could return home to report.

However, because he wanted to see the fall of Pendragon with his own eyes, Eberl stayed with Allen and planned to go back after witnessing the historic scene with his own eyes.

Unfortunately, what happened afterwards made Eberl both disappointed and indignant.

It is impossible to see the fall of Pendragon with your own eyes in the short term.

Since there is no way to see the fall of Pendragon, there is no point in staying in the army and in the Britannia Empire.

Therefore, Eberl did not hesitate at all. After following Allen to the Rhineland Plain, he took a short rest and then continued to head east.

According to Eberl's pace, he should have successfully crossed the Rhine River and returned to the Frankish Empire.

...

...

Before "surrendering" to the Britannia Empire, Allen's military rank was general.

Now that he has returned to the Frankish Empire, Allen has naturally been reinstated and has regained the title of "General Jones".

It is precisely because of Allen's rank of general that most of the generals in the army, although they do not like Allen, can only treat him with courtesy.

In the past two days, Walter has always treated Allen as a guest of honor and given Allen the best treatment.

However, although Walter gave Allen all the high-quality treatment he could provide, he did not give Allen one thing: real power in the army.

Simply put, on the Rhineland Plain, Allen is a bare commander, and there is no army under his command for him to dispatch.

The subtext of Walter's doing this is that the army does not need your help now, so stay wherever you are comfortable.

Allen's attitude towards the current neglect he has suffered is to accept it calmly.

After all, as a civilian, he has long been accustomed to the bad attitude of the nobles towards him. New 81 Chinese website updates the fastest PC version:

And he just lost a battle.

With such a bad record, Allen really doesn't have the face to complain why Walter didn't give him military power.

Although he had no real power in the army, Allen was still qualified to participate in military meetings.

In every military meeting, Allen sat in the corner, quietly listening to the content of the meeting,

without saying a word.

Originally, Allen wanted to remain silent as usual in today's meeting.

But a few words in Otto's long speech just now made Allen's expression change and his brows frowned uncontrollably.

In the end, he really couldn't suppress his mouth that was almost unable to close, and called out to Otto.

After being called by Allen, Otto questioned Allen with an unhappy face, what did he mean by those words just now.

"It doesn't mean anything." Allen continued calmly, "It's just the literal meaning. I hope you don't underestimate Su Cheng too much."

"General Holweg, you just said quite confidently that in terms of command ability on the water, that Su Cheng is definitely not as good as you."

"Please forgive me for being too arrogant, General Holweg."

"That Su Cheng is not an ordinary person. You will only pay a painful price if you underestimate him."

"Su Cheng was only 17 years old when he first took charge of the army."

"At that time, everyone thought that Su Cheng, who had no military experience or fighting experience, could not command the troops well at all."

"And what happened afterwards, I believe everyone here should know."

"He can always do things on the battlefield that others think he can't do. This is Su Cheng's style of using troops."

"Although from Su Cheng's previous life According to his resume, he has indeed never fought a naval battle. "

"But there should be no necessary causal relationship between never doing it and not being able to do it, right?"

"So I hope General Holweg..."

Before Allen finished speaking, Otto seemed to have heard enough and shouted impatiently:

"Enough!"

"Why do I have to listen to the preaching of a civilian and a defeated general?"

"Allen Jones, I understand your fear of Su Cheng."

"After all, you have been defeated by him twice."

"Facing a person who defeated you twice, you would feel afraid, which is reasonable, and I can understand and sympathize with you."

"But you are wrong to exaggerate here!"

"You are afraid of Su Cheng, but I am not afraid of Su Cheng!"

"As long as the troops under my command are our country's royal fleet, no one can defeat me on the water!"

"Even that Su Cheng is no exception."

After that, Otto, who didn't want to talk to Allen or listen to Allen's words anymore, no longer stayed in the tent, opened the curtain of the big tent with a "hoo", and strode out of the formation. Big account.

Watching Otto leave, Allen's eyes showed a bit of helplessness.

This helplessness stayed in Allen's eyes for a moment, and then turned into a sigh, spitting out from Allen's mouth...

Britannia Empire, on a tributary of the Ys River.

It's a cloudy day today.

Under the dark sky, the combined fleet composed of the Michael Knights and the Imperial Navy formed a long and narrow marching formation and advanced in an orderly manner on a certain tributary of the Ys River.

The bow of the advancing battleship parted the water, causing splashes of water.

The splashing water sparkled with thousands of silver points, dotting the battleships and the smooth, mirror-like river.

As the leader of the Michael Knights and the undoubted supreme commander of this Eastern Expedition, Su Cheng's ship was naturally the flagship Hipperian.

At this time, Su Cheng was standing on the deck of the Hyperion, looking at the surrounding scenery.

Also standing on the deck to admire the scenery was Su Cheng's adjutant, Willie, the deputy leader of the Michael Knights.

On a whim, Su Cheng walked out of the cabin, wanting to see the scenery outside the ship.

Willy, who was also feeling a little bored in the cabin just now, accompanied Su Cheng to the deck and stood side by side with Su Cheng, moving his eyes aimlessly and scanning the surrounding scenery.
