Chapter 0229 Appease and reconcile
The main city of Rakiru Province.
An elegant manor covering an area of dozens of acres and a simple two-story brick and wood villa is the private property of the Del family and the administrative and military center of the entire Rakiru Province.
At this moment, in this manor that has been passed down for hundreds of years, half of Ogilia's country is gathered here.
Jet Yarrow from Maint Province.
Dubin Hercules of Xien Province.
Jayin Gufsman from Gust Province.
Torres Gieson, Nairobi.
Reese Del, Rakiru Province.
In just one year, out of the eleven provinces Ogilia belongs to, Jaina has already occupied five!
And unlike Aure's iron-fisted power, the five provinces recovered by Jaina did not cause too much bloodshed and sacrifices, but the stability and loyalty of these provinces are far beyond what Aure's can match...
But next, it won't be that easy...
As the foundation of Orei and the core of the kingdom's military strength, several provinces centered on the royal city have always been Orei's back garden. It is impossible to recover them without real swords and guns to avoid sacrifice and bloodshed.
, it’s just child’s play.
This is why Jaina is eager to pull her troops out to fight.
The soldiers in the northern provinces are almost mainly militiamen. They train in farming and work in their spare time...
But surrounding the royal city, the kingdom to which Aure belongs recruits troops, which are the so-called royal army and the regular army of the royal city. Both in quantity and quality, they are higher than those in the northern provinces...
…
"Your Highness!
After detailed statistics, the total number of prisoners captured this time was 11,000 and 314, all of whom were royal infantry!
According to His Highness’s previous instruction, I temporarily enclosed them in two small towns at the intersection of Rakiru and Nairohua!”
In the simple study room, Reise reported something respectfully, while the four Dubins waited silently.
Of the 20,000 royal city infantry, only more than 16,000 escaped under the attack of Jaina's troops...
According to Duke Dubin's arrangement, he and Torres led the light cavalry respectively to divide and encircle the defeated infantry.
The strategy is also very simple, with only one word "chase"!
Nearly 10,000 light cavalry followed the enemy, pursuing them leisurely, using the speed and endurance of the light cavalry to consume the physical strength of the infantry. Then using the mobility of the light cavalry, they divided the enemy's lagging rear and nibbled away one by one...
More than 10,000 infantrymen, chased by cavalry, only lasted two days before being completely wiped out...
Even in the later stages, many royal infantrymen, after two days of hunger, two days of running in fear, and complete mental and physical collapse, actually walked up to Qingqi and demanded preferential treatment for the prisoners...
…
Eleven thousand prisoners of war were placed in two towns on the border between Rakiru and Nairohua, because among the eleven provinces of Ogilia, no one had a prisoner of war camp that could accommodate ten thousand people...
Rakiru and Nairohua have been at war before, and there are many villages and towns on the border that have been abandoned due to the war, so Jaina temporarily arranged them there, but only temporarily...
Ten thousand well-trained prisoners of war who are familiar with each other...
There was no way Jaina could put them together...
Break up, differentiate, absorb...
These jobs are no stranger to Du Bin, Jie Yin and Reese!
After a brief report, Reese slowly took a few steps back and stood beside Dubin.
But seeing the obvious intentional move to avoid Torres, Jaina could only helplessly shake her head.
The battle between Rakiru and Nairobi started with Torres's uncle, but later Reise's move to besiege Nairobi was considered a bad breath.
But the hatred for the lives of thousands of soldiers on both sides cannot be alleviated by just one or two words of comfort from Jaina...
"Duke Reese, that nephew of yours?"
Sitting on the chair in the study room, Jaina gently rubbed her forehead.
"Matt! Your Highness, his name is Matt Del!
My brother’s child, the future heir of the Del family!”
Riser bowed slightly and answered solemnly, with some expectation in his eyes.
"Little Matt~
He is only twelve years old, but he can remain calm in front of a butcher's knife...
It’s no wonder he’s from the Del family!”
Thinking of that, tears and snot ran down his face, but the boy stubbornly faced the cavalry sword in the hands of the commander of the royal city...
Jaina smiled knowingly!
This compliment made Ruise's body tremble with excitement and her face turned a little red.
"If you don't mind, I would like to introduce a teacher to little Matt~"
Jaina smiled sweetly, and her blue eyes suddenly narrowed.
"Yale Shadivin, a light magician and a former priest of the Church of Light!
A man of wisdom, opinion, rich knowledge and noble character!"
She looked at Ruise expectantly, as if she was selling some product.
When he heard the name of Yale, Reese felt happy.
"As His Highness wishes, this is little Matt's honor, and also the Del family's honor!"
He bowed slightly and agreed without thinking...
Yale!
The number one hero who helped Princess Jaina escape from the royal city, and protected Her Highness all the way to today, is the most trusted confidant of Her Highness Jaina!
By following Yale, the chances of contacting Her Royal Highness Gianna will undoubtedly be greatly increased, which will affect the future of little Matt and the Del family...
Ruise happily agreed and began to secretly plan the future of the family.
Seeing his cheerful attitude, Gianna and Dubin also secretly breathed a sigh of relief...
The overt and covert fighting between Rakiru and Nairohua is no longer a matter of a day or two. The hatred between the Del family and the Gissen family is almost an irreconcilable blood feud. But this is not what Jaina wants to see, let alone seeking the future of the kingdom.
Stable Duke Dubin is what he wants to see.
Torres' younger brother nominally took over Nairobi and recognized Yale as his teacher. If he takes over the future heir of the Del family...
Two teenage children together, worshiping the same teacher, plus the brainwashing education of the former Yale Priest of Light...
The relationship between the two families should be eased, not to mention the prospects for future relations...
…
"Your Highness, Duke Reese has made his position clear. What's our next step?"
After waiting quietly for a long time, seeing that Jaina had finished handling the matter at hand, Jie Yin started to inquire.
"Now...is not the time yet!"
Understanding what Jie Yin was referring to, Jaina shook her head.
Longmanti!
Like Rakiru, it is a military artery connecting the north and south of the kingdom.
Jaina has mastered Rakiru, so next, whether she wants to further expand her advantage to seize the opportunity, or strengthen the internal defense to consolidate the defense of the territory.
Taking down Longmanti is an imperative task!
Can……
"What we think of, Ole would also think of..."
His attack on Rakiru had the same purpose as ours.
Now that Duke Reise has made his position clear, Ole will definitely increase his troops to Longmanti to guard another passage..."
Jaina shrugged helplessly and stood up slowly.
"Aure's military strength is far superior to ours, there is no doubt about this.
There is no point in attacking Longmanti now.
Chapter completed!
