592 Alice's Loss
If another general who is "Gen Miao Zhenghong" is replaced, he will most likely not "sell" his military achievements to others at will. After all, the nobles are divided into civil servants and military officers. This is not a forced division, but a self-division based on the territory and the family inheritance. Android Tex is obviously a civil servant, and the lords led by Greenton are generally military officers.
Although there are often cooperation between interests among nobles and most of the time, there is no distinction between civil and military officials, once the war period comes, the division of civil and military officials is very obvious.
The territory of military officers is generally close to the border, and their economic conditions are generally not as good as that of civil servants. Because of the task of defending the border, their lives are generally not as good as those of civil servants. Many times, in secret, they are ridiculed as rustic buns by civil servants.
Therefore, the civil and military lords have an opposing mood in secret. Under normal circumstances, military achievements are the faces of the military officers and lords, and they will not easily get out of the way.
But everything is absolutely absolutely true. Many times, money is not a problem, but the problem is that there is no money.
For better military equipment and more benefits, as long as the price is appropriate, the military officers and lords will also "sell" some military achievements.
This has a foundation for cooperation.
The digital lords who came to resist the invasion of the Kingdom of Sendland were all civil servants, and Alice was the only descendant of the military lord among them.
For most civil servants, military achievements are difficult to obtain. After all, they are "civilian officials". Even if they have an army, it is difficult to fight against real enemy elite soldiers.
That's why Lexus has been sticking to it and never takes the initiative.
Android Tecte, because of the weakest of all the lords, was forced to come up to observe the situation. Unexpectedly, he became a blessing in disguise.
After cleaning the battlefield, it was dawn. Alice came over and gently hit Beta with her left shoulder, then pointed to the sky in the distance, where a long yellow sand line floated in the air.
Beta looked at it for a while and said, "It should be the Sendland army defending another passage. I know that things are not good, so I retreat."
"Why is this happening? Aren't they going to invade our Holevin?" Alice looked strange: "Why did you run back by yourself?"
"Didn't you find something wrong?" Beta frowned: "It's obvious that the enemy invasion is such a big deal, the king actually sent only a few of you here. Besides your soldiers with sufficient combat power, the soldiers of other people seem to be only stronger than the farmers. Also, Sendland's army escaped too simply."
Alice was stunned: "What do you mean?"
"Maybe this is just a matter of time. What kind of agreement is our king with the king of Sendran."
"This is unlikely." Alice was a little puzzled: "Then we killed a Sendland army, did we do something bad by doing something good?"
"No, it will make this situation more realistic." Android Tex, who had been staying next to him, suddenly said: "If the guess of Lord Beta is correct, then our King must be planning something big with the King of Sendran in secret."
Alice looked extremely unpleasant: "For the so-called situation, should the soldiers on the front line be sacrificed?"
"If the benefits are large enough, then everything is worth it." Android Tex smiled: "Maybe we will defeat the enemy, or we will be defeated by the enemy, all of which are under the considerations of those two Majesties and will not affect the overall situation."
“It’s very unpleasant, even disgusting.”
Alice said in disgust, riding the unicorn and running away, her cavalry team followed closely behind.
Beta ordered the Frostwolf warriors to escort the prisoners back, and Android Tex also sent someone to help. There was one of these prisoners in it.
Looking at these prisoners, Beta felt a little happy. The prisoners could act as coolies, and while ensuring their basic living conditions, they could work, smooth out their edges and slowly transform them into members of the Holy City of Wojin.
If possible, Beta didn't want to convert the enemy prisoners into his own people, but there was no way. What he lacked the most now is people... Just buying slaves is not a big deal, after all, there are too few talents among slaves.
When Beta brought his prisoners back to the front line of Sicilya, he was greeted with incredible faces.
Especially Lexus, whose face was so gloomy that it was about to drip out of water.
"Your Excellency Beta, you are so powerful." Lexus said the compliment against his will: "Three hundred people raided more than 5,000 troops, defeated the enemy and captured at least one thousand soldiers. This is simply a miracle."
"Good luck, good luck." Beta smiled huffly.
Looking at Beta's smile, Lexus smiled and had already hated him to death.
Alice came back first and threw the promised contract of interest on his table, and threatened: "I have done what you asked me to do. Within a month, I will see these things appear on my territory, otherwise I will bear the consequences."
The little trick that he could not easily imagine was actually destroyed by Beta. He believed that without Beta, no matter how strong Alice was, she would not have been able to do such an exaggerated thing.
"Now the left-wing enemy has been defeated, and the enemy on the right has fled." Beta asked with a smile: "What else do we need to do next? Can we bring troops home?"
Lexus took a breath and said in a calm look: "Well, you are a great hero, you can do whatever you want."
Beta left a meaningful smile and returned to his base with the Frost Wolf Warrior. He did not rush to leave, but first transferred 300 prisoners to Android Tecte. In fact, about 700 prisoners alone were a big problem. An appropriate plan must be made to bring these more than 700 people back to his territory.
In the evening, Android Tecte sent 400 gold coins, and Beta distributed half of them to the Frost Wolf Warriors, each with two gold coins, which made these warriors look beautiful, and their loyalty and favorability for Beta greatly improved.
Then not long after, Alice came over.
She was wearing white leather armor and sat in front of Beta, not talking, just looking very disappointed.
"Although it's unacceptable?" Beta was a little surprised: "Really speaking, you are also a nobleman and have lived for so long. These things should be clear about them."
Alice spoke for a while: "Understanding is understanding, but when I think of our lovely soldiers fighting bloody battles on the front line, even killing their souls, but their efforts and sacrifices are meaningless, I always feel uncomfortable."
Beta thought about it and said, "Then wouldn't you just make their efforts and sacrifices meaningful?"
