Chapter 1310 Two Brothers (Part 1)
The third major event - it is not actually a big event for the whole continent, but for the Britannia Empire, it is an event with great influence.
That is - the "mainland giant businessman" Renn family suddenly moved away from Dorlond and moved to the southern border of the empire to Leif City.
Many people were puzzled by the Lane family's move.
Although Leif City is also a prosperous city, it is too close to the border between the Britannia Empire and the Rollin Empire.
Once the two countries go to war, the war will easily spread to this city.
Dorrond is the second most prosperous metropolis in the Britannia Empire, second only to Pendragon in terms of prosperity, and it is a top-level existence in terms of geographical location and transportation convenience.
It would be extremely unwise to leave Dorrond and move to Leif City.
No matter how you look at it, this doesn't seem like something the Lane family, a "giant businessman from the mainland," would do.
After the whole family moved to Leif City, the current patriarch of the Renn family immediately announced——
He wanted to bring gifts to meet Ilsa to celebrate last year's great victory in the Great Patriotic War.
Because I was too busy the past few days, I never had time to bring some gifts to the imperial capital to celebrate the great victory of the Great Patriotic War. I begged Your Majesty to allow him to enter the capital to have an audience. This was Kong Nan's letter requesting Ilsa to allow him to enter the capital. The words he wrote when he met her.
Since there was no reason to refuse, Ilsa agreed to Kong Nan's request.
…
…
It wasn't until Kong Nan came to Pendragon that Ilsa discovered that "bring a few gifts" written by Kong Nan on the letter - such words were too modest.
Kong Nan carries more than a few gifts.
Kong Nan took his eldest son Philip and a large carriage team to Pendragon.
The items contained in the carriages of this huge carriage team were the gifts given to Ilsa by Kong Nan.
These gifts range from precious spices to rare animals.
This long queue of huge carriages with carriages full of gifts stretched from the center of Pendragon to the southern city gate, and it had not yet reached the end.
Most of the citizens of Pendragon saw for the first time the strength of the "Mainland Giant Businessman".
On the second night after Konnan and his eldest son Philip arrived in Pendragon, Ilsa held a grand banquet in the banquet hall of Baiyang Palace.
Kong Nan came under the banner of celebrating the great victory of the Great Patriotic War.
Since we came here to celebrate victory, we naturally had to hold a banquet, and it had to be a grand enough banquet.
At this banquet, all the important ministers from the center of the Britannia Empire came.
All fronts of the Britannia Empire are now extremely safe and are unlikely to cause any big disturbances. Therefore, there is no need for the leaders of the three major knights to sit on the fronts.
Su Cheng, Albert, and Iser are still in Pendragon and have not returned to their respective fronts.
The three people who stayed in Pendragon were basically busy these days with the establishment of the General Staff Headquarters and the General Supply Department.
Both were brand new departments with absolutely no precedents to draw from.
How to design the structure of the organization, what specific work needs to be done, how much money is needed to maintain the normal operation of these two new departments, the specific breakdown of functions, how many subordinate departments should be established... these things all need to be The three of them, Su Cheng, who were familiar with military affairs, slowly designed and adjusted.
Fortunately, after nearly a year of hard design and adjustment, these two departments are finally starting to look good.
Probably not long after, these two new departments will be officially operational.
Staying with Su Cheng in Pendragon were Alyssa, Willy, Raymond, Deng Jiaer and others, as well as some troops from the Michael Knights.
Judging from the current state of the Holy Hiran Empire, it is simply impossible for them to have the spare capacity to go south to launch an attack on the Britannia Empire.
Therefore, the number of troops stationed on the northern front has been reduced much compared with before.
There are only 40,000 Knights of Michael currently stationed on the northern front.
Samuel was responsible for taking charge of the northern front while Su Cheng was still in Pendragon.
Samuel is assisted by Gary and Dale.
With Samuel and his 40,000-strong army, and the presence of a super fortress like Muhawicz Fortress, the northern front is now considered foolproof.
…
…
As soon as the banquet started, Su Cheng had been immersed in eating.
He had a cold face from beginning to end.
At the same time, he never glanced at Kong Nan, who was sitting not far from Ilsa, or Phillip, who was sitting opposite Kong Nan.
"Su Cheng, what's wrong?"
Albert, who was sitting next to Su Cheng, asked Su Cheng.
"Are you feeling unwell?"
Su Cheng, Albert, and Iser were sitting together.
Therefore, Albert and Isel easily discovered that Su Cheng, who was sitting next to them, seemed to be in a bad mood.
"Su Cheng." Iser echoed at this time, "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? Or are you in a bad mood?"
"...I'm barely in a bad mood."
Su Cheng said softly.
"After all, there are two big lumps of garbage in this banquet hall. It's impossible to eat deliciously, right?"
After that, Su Cheng stood up and left the table, leaving a message:
"Sorry, I seem to have had too much tea. I have to go to the toilet."
…
…
Although Su Cheng never looked at Kong Nan and Phillip from the beginning to the end, Phillip had been secretly sizing and observing Su Cheng.
After seeing Su Cheng leave the table, he quickly stood up and left, following Su Cheng's back and leaving the banquet hall.
…
…
After quickly emptying his bladder, which was bloated from drinking too much tea, Su Cheng slowly walked out of the toilet.
However, as soon as he walked out of the toilet, a strange male voice sounded beside Su Cheng:
"First meeting, Captain Cheng."
Su Cheng looked around with doubts on his face.
After seeing clearly who the speaker was, the confusion on Su Cheng's face disappeared instantly.
Instead, there was coldness.
The person who spoke was Philip who left the hall with Su Cheng.
Phillip had an inexplicable smile on his face and slowly approached Su Cheng.
"Although it's the first time we've met."
"But you and I must have heard each other's names a long time ago."
"Alan should have told you about me, right?"
After hearing the name "Alan" come out of Phillip's mouth, the coldness on Su Cheng's face became even stronger.
The hands that were hanging down naturally were slowly clenched.
"How's Alan doing lately?"
"After all, I can be considered Alan's brother. I've been separated from Alan for so long, but I still miss her..."
boom!
Before Phillip could finish his words, a fist full of rage was stamped directly on his face.
