Chapter 80 Dispute
Border line.
The conflict between the Principality of Langton and the Principality of Wata is becoming increasingly fierce. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the war is about to break out.
Even now, the great dukes on both sides have not issued orders to start the war, and the friction is already very sharp.
The province of Davipur under the command of Count Lombard is the province closest to the Principal of Langton, so after the war between the two countries, the most affected was here.
In the Davipur province, there are many viscount territories and baron territories bordering the Principal of Vatta, among which the longest border is the Mining City under Viscount Bret. If nothing unexpected happens, after the war begins, near Mining City will be one of the main battlefields. No matter who the result of the war is beneficial to anyone, at least Viscount Bret will not have a satisfactory ending.
In addition to the main border areas, there are also some non-core border areas. Although they will not suffer the most severe impact, because the territory is small and the foundation is not strong, once targeted, they will even suffer a more dangerous situation than the Minjincheng.
Diamond Town is one of them.
When there were signs of restlessness on the border line, the visionary Baron Lord Kells began to gradually send more personnel to the border line. Until now, five hundred guards have been stationed on the border line. Compared with the number of Diamond Town and all the people under the rule, this is not a small number.
Just a few days ago, a fight of more than 100 people broke out between the Diamond Guard and the Principal of Wata broke out, which was almost more than 100% of the border garrison. If this continues, the regular war may soon break out. In order to deal with this situation, the highest commander of the Diamond Frontier Guard, Cres, personally appointed by Baron Kells, made an opinion on sending additional personnel to Baron Kells.
Cres and the other five guard captains thought that the Baron would add more players to each team, but unexpectedly, the news came out of a young boy named Willy, who, as the captain of Diamond Six, led a hundred people to the front line.
This news caught several of the top leaders on the border defense off guard and also made them very worried.
They knew very well what this guy named Weili represented. He not only invisibly divided the forces of his guards, but also the new forces represented by Bamos, and the Blade of Confrontation that launched an attack on them, the old forces.
This made everyone except for commanding Cres and the captain of the Diamond Team II Wimbledon.
At this time, the Diamond Town border defense line and the commander-in-chief battalion.
Three men in armor sat in camp tents, each of whom looked bad.
A middle-aged man with a beard sat in a seat with his fingers constantly hitting the armrest. He was the captain of the Diamond Team Rickel.
"Young Master Bamos is clearly trying to let us old men get out! How can a teenager be on the same level as us? We have paid so much for Diamond Town to reach our current position. What is that little guy named Weili!"
Rikel's tone was very rushing, not hiding his anger.
"Speak carefully."
A middle-aged man with a very gentle appearance frowned. He didn't look like a chief guard, but more like a civil servant: "Isn't it normal for a newcomer to replace the old man? Didn't we take over the old Baron's subordinates at that time?"
Wibone, the captain of the Diamond Team 2. He received an orthodox education since he was a child and did not value power.
Rickel was about to retort, and the man sitting at the top waved his hand and stopped him from speaking.
This man is about fifties, with a majestic face and extraordinary demeanor, and he is obviously in a high position for a long time.
He is Cres, the highest person in charge of the Diamond Town border defense line and the commander of the Diamond Guard.
"Don't say it, everything follows the will of Lord Baron. At critical moments, I don't want to cause internal strife."
Cres glanced at Rickle, with a warning sign in his eyes.
Because Willie was going to lead the Diamond Six team to the border defense, Cres specially convened the other five captains for an interim meeting.
But only Rickle and Wieboon were present, and the other three said they would not come to participate on the grounds that the border pressure was too high to be cloned.
Cres knew very well that the other three people had a very obvious attitude, but they didn't like the Diamond Team Six brought by Willy.
Cres was helpless, but he did not force them. Although he was nominal commander, in fact, he only played the role of executing the baron's orders.
Cres and the other captains were at the same level when they were in Diamond Town, but they were appointed as commander because of war friction. They were not a special military system at all, so when they were commanding the guards, Cres could only guarantee that the five guards could exert their combat capabilities, and he could not control any more things.
"No matter what, the person is coming soon. If you don't accept him, are you waiting to be held accountable by the Baron?"
Cres glanced at Rickle coldly.
Wibone also glanced at Rikle, as if he was very disdainful. He was the only one among these people who did not reject Diamond Team Six.
"The Baron's will must be executed, but when this little guy named Willy comes, he cannot let him eat a meal."
Rikel suddenly changed his mind.
Cres didn't answer the conversation, he knew that Ricker must have a deeper meaning.
"The border defense line is under too much pressure now, especially the northwest border, which is often harassed by the enemy. Since Weili is an elite selected by Master Bamos, I think it is best for him to take over the border defense of the northwest border."
Rikel seemed to have prepared this set of rhetoric long ago, with a tone of mockery.
"You're simply a bad intention to put someone who has never been on the border."
Wieboon directly refuted that in his opinion, once Wieli reaches the northwest border, he will suffer serious losses due to lack of experience and may even lose his life. This is not that Wieboon looks down on Wieli, but because border wars rely more on experience rather than talent.
Weiley is just a newcomer, it's too difficult for him to do all this, and Rickle is calculating him.
"Cres, this is not what I mean by myself, but what I share with the other three captains of the guards. I hope you can consider it."
Rikel's tone was forced.
"Are you threatening me?"
Cres tapped the table gently, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
Although he cannot achieve absolute authority in militaryization, he will not be truly provoked to the majesty by others.
"I……"
Rickle obviously didn't expect Cres to be so tough, and he also felt a little reckless.
"I just think..."
Rickle wanted to add something, but was interrupted by Cres.
"He can go to the Northwest Defense Line, but you also have to distribute half of the troops to support the Northwest Defense Line."
