Early the next morning.

Hannah took Ander and Melis into the Baron's Villa.

The servant led them to the garden behind the villa, and the baubles were pruning the plants themselves.

"Miss Vivian, I'm here."

Unless it is a formal occasion, Hannah always calls the Baroness Miss Vivian, which is also her privilege. Most people cannot call the Baroness this way.

"Oh, you're here, little Melis has grown taller again, and she's grown into a big girl. Ender, you're here too. At that time, you said you were going to the logging farm. Hannah had come to me specifically, worried that you can't hold on. But now you look good? It seems that boys should exercise more."

Vivian handed the scissors in his hand to the servant, and wiped his hands gently while using the towel he presented to him.

"Come on, let's go inside and talk." Mrs. Vivian walked towards the villa.

———————————————

"Linna, take Melis to play first." The Baroness walked into a reception room and ordered the servant to take Melis away, allowing Hannah and Ender to sit down.

Two maids with swords guarded the door.

"Hannah, I need you to temporarily transfer to the baron's soldier organization." The first words of the Baroness surprised Hannah.

"Miss, why is this? Are we in trouble? What should we do over the grocery yard?" Hannah was responsible for the safety and order of the grocery yard.

Although the name of the grocery yard is not very good, in fact, it is the entire Baron-led goods distribution center, and it is also the core asset of the Silver Coin Chamber of Commerce after obtaining the Hank Legal franchise.

The security forces from the grocery yard mean that the silver coin chamber has lost its armed power.

"Of course, we still have to keep some people. Hannah, go back and see how many people we can draw at most. News came from the royal capital that Count Harlock is ready to attack us."

The Baroness nodded slightly and said affirmatively.

Hank Joseph could start from scratch with a knight to develop a baron leader, how could he be without roots?

He was the eldest prince of the past and the current king's general. The so-called pioneering leadership was the result of Hank Joseph's efforts, but with the support of the royal family, he went to the north to lay a nail.

How many people in this world can break the ceiling with their own strength? They are just white gloves under the game of interests.

However, not everyone can do white gloves. Some support cannot be made by the royal family, and they must rely on themselves to survive.

"Count Harlock!" Hannah was shocked and stood up suddenly.

——————————————

From the perspective of the aristocratic system generally recognized on the mainland, the baron and the viscount are on the same level, the earl and marquis are on the same level, and the dukes, kings and emperors are on the highest aristocratic level.

Of course, the honorary aristocrats mentioned here are not included in the real aristocrat level.

The baron and the viscount have towns and castles; the earl and the marquis own cities; the stage of the continent that has truly set foot on since the duke, the duke is the king who has not yet been established; and the king is just a powerful duke. There may be some gap in power, but it can still be regarded as the same level.

As for the emperor, they are also at this level, but they are generally direct descendants of gods, so they nominally command a large group of nobles, and their prestige can be spread throughout the mainland. No matter what nobles are, they will sell him three points of face. Even legendary strong men are unwilling to oppose such descendants of gods.

Earl Harlock is the most powerful person in the northern part of the Aud Kingdom. The Aud Kingdom has no marquis and dukes, and these four Counts are under the king.

Such aristocratic bosses who are dominant in one place naturally dislike Baron Hank, who is almost the northernmost part of the kingdom.

It was not until now that the attack was launched. It was because the king's current powerful means made him very worried.

——————————————

"Hanna, don't worry too much." Mrs. Vivian smiled and reached out to signal Hannah to sit down.

"But Miss, that's Count Harlock-by-by-Old Master Ryan, he is still studying in the Temple of the God of War in Bisland, which is the city of Count Harlock!"

Hannah stood up again in a hurry.

Temples are usually set in cities, and at most, there is an altar at the level of town.

"I'm not worried, what are you worried about?" Vivian gave Hannah a blank look: "Earl Harlock cannot end in person. The agent he launched this time is Baron Iters. The Baron will go to Bisland City the day after tomorrow, and have a pre-divide with Baron Iters in the Temple of War, start a lord war, and will bring Ryan back together on his way back."

"Huh." Hannah breathed a sigh of relief and sat down.

No one dares to play tricks before and after the swearing before and after the gods, which will lead to full investigation by the Temple of War. Even the count cannot afford the charge of blasphemy.

——————————————

The so-called "Swoog in front of God" is not that everyone forms a covenant to become good friends, but that in front of the statue of the god of war Anwei, both sides announce the war together and offer prayers to tell the gods the reasons/excuses of the war they launched.

There are strict rules for territorial wars between human aristocrats, and they are not fought as much as they want. Every time a lord war is held, the priest of the God of War is required to follow the army to monitor it.

These priests will not participate in wars, and at most they can perform a few healing techniques. Those who receive the healing techniques of the God of War Priest must completely withdraw from this battle.

In ancient times, lords used any means to weaken their opponents and often deliberately massacred the other party's leaders and free people.

You should know that this is a world with gods. Civilians are the source of faith of gods. How can they move around casually? If you kill civilians and I kill civilians, who will be the one who is in the end?

Of course, it is the gods who need faith.

Therefore, in the wars within humans, the human gods strictly prohibit unnecessary massacres. It is not that people cannot be killed, but that large-scale massacres cannot be carried out.

Only by fighting with alien races can warriors launch massacres against alien races, and this massacre often brings endless hatred between the two races.

In history, the trilateral war between humans, elves, and orcs lasted for nearly a thousand years, and few people dared to break through the lower limit - even if they dared to do so, even if they were for a moment, they would eventually die.

After explaining Hannah various precautions to draw hands, the Baroness turned her gaze to Ender: "End, listen to Molma, do you want to enter the library to read books?"

"Yes, respectful Baroness." Ander stood up respectfully and replied.

"You don't have to be so polite. You are Hannah's child, just like mine. Call me Baroness on formal occasions, and you can call me Aunt Vivian in private."

The Baroness waved her hand and asked Ender to sit down and speak.

"Morma greatly appreciates your math ability and thinks you are a rare math genius. Then I will test you now. If you calculate it, I will agree to go to the library."

"A farmer can carry sixty kilograms of bread, and professional soldiers can bring twenty kilograms of bread in addition to weapons and equipment, and each person has to eat at least two kilograms of bread every day. Now two farmers are used to supply one professional soldier. Ender, how many days do you think this army can advance in total? What if three farmers are used?"

Hannah's head was already confused. You know, as a member of the Silver Coin Chamber of Commerce, Hannah also studied for a few days, but such a problem would make her feel dizzy even if she listened to it.

Ender thought for a while and reported a number that surprised Mrs. Vivian.

"Oh, how did you figure out this number?"

Vivian leaned forward with interest, wanting to hear Ende's calculation process - the number that Ende reported was three days more than what she calculated.

"It's like this. A farmer and a soldier carry a total of eighty kilograms of bread. Two people can go forward twenty days if they eat it. If the return journey is considered, the army can only go forward ten days; then when there are two farmers, when one of the farmers' remaining bread has just enough to meet the return journey requirements, he will go back and carry sixty kilograms of bread and come over again, while the other farmer still advances with the soldiers with the load of sixty kilograms of bread."

"When another farmer's bread was left, let him return, and the soldiers continued to move forward with the remaining twenty kilograms of bread." Ander said here, interrupted by Mrs. Vivian.

"But the remaining bread of this farmer is not enough for him to return to the starting point." Mrs. Vivian questioned.

"No, when this farmer finishes his bread, he will meet the previous farmer who has returned from the previous trip and transported the bread again. He can get supplies from him - the same is true for soldiers. And so on, the three farmers' problems can be calculated like this."

"Papa papa--" Mrs. Vivian clapped.

This question was not given by Vivian himself, but a very difficult logistics question in the regular knight course. In the standard answer, the only way to get farmers back early is to prevent farmers from wasting food with the team, and the content of obtaining supplies again from the farmers who transported the second time.

In other words, Ender's algorithm is even better than the standard answers in the Knight textbook.

"End, the library is in Red Fort, I allow you to go in and read for two hours a day. In addition, I appoint you as the deputy logistics supervisor of this territory war. Tomorrow, you will go to Red Fort to report to Murma, who is the logistics supervisor of this war and your old boss."

"Ah--" Ander was stunned, looking at Mrs. Vivian's somewhat cunning smile. He felt that he had fallen into a pit?

"Thank you now, Miss!" Hannah gently patted Ander's back.

The position of deputy logistics supervisor is equivalent to that of a knight entourage. Although it is temporary, it also greatly improves Ende's social status.

During the war, all positions related to logistics supply and support were both safe and well-behaved important positions. Those who were not the Baroness and their confidants would never be placed in such a position.

In fact, Hannah is Vivian's confidant, and Holid is also Baron Hank's knight entourage, and has accompanied the Baron on the battlefield many times to the battlefield.
