Eagle Byzantium

"Well, Gawain, this sneaky bear, really didn't dare to respond to my summons. He probably ran away." Behind the curtain, before announcing her decision, Anna said to Agnes disdainfully, "But it's okay. It doesn’t matter, this is my plan to get rid of him.”

"What, do you want to form the armed group into a formal brigade?" When Anna behind the curtain made this request, both of them, especially Branas, couldn't believe their ears.

"That's right." Anna's voice was still mature and quiet with confidence, "The pillars of a country are the noble and brave 'Jinats' (the name of military nobles in Greek). Gawain and I are determined to revive The great glory of Rome starts with its military system. Now the number of armed regiments is just right. A separate turma brigade was formed, and then General Branas became the turmarch (count commander of the brigade, trmachi), and Lambert was his deputy, commanding the 1st drungarios (1st battalion). Officer, equivalent to the deputy of the brigade, the first Dugelius)."

In fact, the "Tema", "Temachi" and "Dugelius" in Anna's mouth are all ancient words from the past. Now the Seme Military District system has collapsed and no longer exists, and Alexius has long been using mercenaries. Soldiers are the main ones, and the names of military systems and official positions are both There have been huge changes. Dorus was immediately confused when he heard the fluent and elegant words spoken by Her Highness the Princess. Even Branas from Thrace felt as if he was in another world: this Princess Anna is like a pile of old papers. Like an elf flying out of it.

However, Her Royal Highness the Princess's next tone did not sound like a prank or a game at all. She continued seriously, "The new brigade formed is named 'Guardians' (the name of an ancient guard regiment in Eastern Rome), and its formal documents, I have asked Agnes, the Royal Ink Master, to draft it, and I will hand it over to Gawain for review soon, so don’t worry about it.”

"Branas, please serve the entire army well, otherwise there will be no place for you in this empire? You can only take shelter under me and be loyal to me. In addition, you must understand that Gawain and my career It is by no means limited to the Red Hand Dalian team itself. The latter is just another pillar of Wang Ye. I will ask Gao immediately. Wen also changed the Dalian Brigade into the "Red Hand Brigade", and the two brigades formed a Seme Division to fight together on the battlefield - now, 20% of the armed regiment is Romans (indigenous Greeks), and 80% are Romans (indigenous Greeks). They are people from Salian and Rhineland, so Sir Dorus, the coordination and training between the ethnic groups are entrusted to you."

These remarks are accompanied by detailed planning. There was also an unspoken decision. The two finally no longer doubted that "this is definitely not a game played by Her Royal Highness the Princess on a whim." But then Dorus carefully reminded, "But the armed group is under the control of the General Secretary, His Excellency Bogotschalk." It belongs to me, I'm afraid..."

"General Secretary Bo has never had any military responsibilities. It is Gottschalk who should make concessions on this point. I will make this clear to Gawain soon. He will definitely accept it." Obviously this question It's not part of Anna's confusion at all.

"The Germans in the armed group are completely loyal to..."

"There is no need to worry about this issue. We are not reinventing the wheel. The highest command of the Guardian Brigade is still Gawain. As for the ethnic and language issues, there will be a simple bilingual doctrine manual to solve this problem soon."

"Yes, yes, holy apostle in purple." The two generals could only bow down and accepted Anna's order.

When the entire team arrived at Karon City, an important town on the south side of Lake Cappadocia, Gawain learned that behind him, Anna had actually established the "Guardian Brigade" without authorization.

Caron. At this moment, the Roma soldiers who were originally here have abandoned the city long ago, and it has become a completely ownerless vacuum fortress. Gawain arranged for a large company of red hands to be stationed on its side, and sent scouts to get in touch with Baldwin or Tancred who might be moving nearby. Then, in accordance with military regulations, the Galganus Brotherhood was sent into the city to maintain operations and collect supplies.

"It's really difficult. The supplies can only last for another four to five days." General Manager Bo Gottschalke and Battalion Officer Lete Bozia (camp manager Melo Chan stayed in the camp to recuperate from his injuries). The one with black hair has obviously been having sex with the Asia March Commander recently. The secretive female consuls gathered around Gawain in front of the city gate, worried about the problem of insufficient supplies. "We must contact Baldwin as soon as possible. We need to know what the situation in Anatolia is now. To act rashly, It will be a huge setback.”

Then while Gawain was still waiting for news from the scouts, another piece of news came: "With the unanimous approval of the military representatives, the original Pilgrim Armed Regiment was upgraded to the 'Guardian Brigade' by Her Royal Highness the Princess, with a total of two hundred War horses, pack horses, and four thousand soldiers, under the new flag, swore allegiance to the patron Anna and expressed their willingness to obey the command of the supreme commander Gawain Russell. "

"Just following the Dalian team for five kilometers, there was such a big change!" Gawain was furious, holding the order sent by Anna, thinking about all precautions, but he didn't expect that this little girl was right behind him It's happening right before your eyes. But who can blame him? It's not because of his guilty conscience. It seems that he was caught by Anna and calculated it.

"Gawain, your 'good little girl' really knows how to play..." Behind him, Cabeamia gathered her hair around her ears, as if she had expected it, and teased with her eyes closed. The general secretary Bogotschalk was also stunned. He was originally planning to negotiate with the Paulist believers to resolve the subsequent doctrinal conflicts, but he didn't expect that the armed group was "kidnapped" by a little girl just as he left.

Gawain, with a pale face, continued to read the decree, "What, my company has also become a brigade, what turma, it's simply an insult! Red-handed turma, I have also been removed from the post of the General of the March of Asia, because the emperor has already disapproved of it in the edict - the kind patron Anna gave me a new position, namely 'Strategos'."

"It is the supreme commander of several Seim divisions, higher than the title of the Grand Duke of the Military Region, responsible for a war zone." At this time, Anna was afraid that Gawain would not understand in the decree, and she also explained it in the notes.

"Congratulations to His Excellency the General of the March on your promotion to 'Strategos'." Wright almost couldn't hold back his laughter now, and said against his will, the expression on his face was simply distorted.

"What Stratigus! Enough of playing house games, prepare the horses for me, I will take the guards to join the rest of the troops, daddy is going to spank my naughty 'daughter'." After saying that, Gawain shoved Anna's decree into Wright's arms with disdain, and then the Turkish army servant lowered his head and couldn't help laughing, and brought Sabina to him.

With the sound of the horn, the Saxon and Varangian warriors of Gawain's guards began to assemble, and then on the other side of the lake, there was a louder sound, all of which were the sound of military footsteps and trumpets - it turned out to be the newly-flagged "Guardians" Brigade, which was carrying Anna's sedan chair and new banners, heading towards the city of Kalon.
