Colonel Sousa was ultimately disappointed.

His Majesty the King did not conduct the expedition in person. The one who got off the ship was His Royal Highness Crown Prince Elvus.

"His Royal Highness Elvus, the Northern Legion, Whale Tail Island Branch welcomes you!" Enduring the disappointment in his heart, Colonel Sousa welcomed the arrival of Elvus with the most respectful attitude. In any case, it is better to have reinforcements than It's not good, and if you think about it carefully, the person here is His Highness the Crown Prince, how could there be no strong protection around him?

Thinking of this, the disappointment gradually receded, and the seeds of hope sprouted again.

"Colonel Sousa?"

Eleus looked at the man in military uniform standing at the front of the crowd.

The military system of the Kingdom of Exmundo is modeled after the navy under the World Government, but some changes have been made in order not to be confused with the World Government. The army is still divided into first, second and third classes of soldiers, non-commissioned officers, upper, middle and lower classes, and lieutenants. They are divided into second lieutenants, lieutenants, and captains.

At the level of colonel officers, majors, lieutenant colonels, and colonels are all the same, but in addition there is an additional senior colonel, which is superior to the colonel, and the senior colonel is set as the highest level of school-level officers.

Further up, there is no distinction between brigadier general, major general, lieutenant general, admiral or general, only the first-level general rank.

Yes, the highest is the rank of general.

Today, in the Kingdom of Exmundo, there are only two generals, the Minister of the Navy and the Commander of the Guards. There are only about ten senior military officials at the rank of colonel, including the deputy commander of the Guards, the commanders of the four major legions, and the commanders of the four major armies. Captain of the fleet and so on.

After all, the colonel is already the absolute backbone of the Kingdom of Exmundo.

Another point is that the military rank is not entirely based on personal strength. It is true that if the personal strength is high enough, you will naturally be promoted. But even if your personal strength is not outstanding, you can still be promoted as long as you have real merits. .

Colonel Susa is considered a powerful person, and he is a direct descendant cultivated by the Kingdom of Exmundo.

His personal force is quite good. Even if he is placed in the navy, as long as he is lucky, he can become a brigadier. Otherwise, he would not be placed on Whale Tail Island to guard the last of the three northern gates.

Seeing the troops standing behind Colonel Susa in a neat and orderly manner, so quiet that no noise could be heard, a flash of admiration flashed in Elus's eyes.

He is a talented person who can train troops!

This is much rarer than an officer who can fight.

"Colonel Sousa, I heard General Foy mention that you are very good at training troops. In the joint military exercise of the four major armies five years ago, you represented the Northern Army and won first place. When I saw you today, you are indeed worthy of your reputation. Your The subordinates are very good.”

"Thank you for the award. I should do all the responsibilities."

Sousa was not blinded by such a frivolous compliment.

As a qualified soldier, his mind was still on how to deal with the invading enemy. The corner of his eye kept wandering among Eleus's entourage, trying to find the strong man who could protect Eleus.

"Colonel Sousa, do any of my subordinates know you?"

Susan's clumsy little move did not escape Elus's eyes. He turned back to look at the attendants and other miscellaneous subordinates who were following him.

"Ah? No... I'm sorry, Your Highness Elus, please forgive me for being rude. I'm still thinking about how to fight the next war." Susa simply didn't cover up. Being reserved and tactful, while being straightforward was more in line with his personality. He glanced at the entourage behind Eleus with his eyes wide open, and said bluntly to Eleus:

"I'm not very good at talking, but I still want to say that the enemy this time is very fierce. If there is no real strong man, it will never be stopped by guns and fortresses."

These words actually hurt the self-esteem of soldiers.

But the world is like this. Not to mention the four emperors and three generals, any big pirate with a bounty of hundreds of millions is a fierce man who can mow grass unparalleled among thousands of troops. Ordinary There is no point in having more soldiers with guns.

The prominence of individual force shapes different laws of war.

Soldiers versus soldiers, generals versus generals, this is the normal way of playing in this world. Of course, if one side is not strong enough, then the lives of soldiers can only be used to fill the gap.

And Susa did not see any famous strong man in the kingdom among Eleus's entourage.

They were all young people whom I had never seen before.

"I see."

Eleus nodded, expressing his understanding.

I thought some of the subordinates I brought with me were acquaintances of Colonel Sousa, but I didn't expect that they were looking to see if there was a big shot hidden among them.

so,

That's what reputation does.

His Majesty the King and other ministers have witnessed the capabilities of His Highness the Crown Prince, so they can safely entrust the war to Eleus. However, like Colonel Susa, he does not know how powerful the Crown Prince is, who has always been unknown. He only knows the Kingdom. Those famous strong men.

"I understand your worries, but... Colonel Susa, don't worry, this war will be over soon." Elus smiled and reached out to pat the other party's shoulder. Colonel Sousa is not very tall, only 197 centimeters tall, so it is easy for him to be patted on the shoulder.

The attendants behind Eleus also showed bright smiles and looked at Colonel Sousa with a smile.

Colonel Sousa frowned in confusion.

Could it be that there is a mysterious master among these people in front of him that he doesn't know about?

————

Whale Tail Island is exactly what its name suggests.

The island looks exactly like a whale's tail, a bit like a stunted clover. The protruding end of the tail fin faces the whale belly island in the north. The bifurcated tail fin forms a natural harbor facing south, and the entire whale tail island has only With such a port, whether you are coming from the south or the north, if you want to land on the island on a large scale, you can only go around this whale tail port.

therefore,

Once a war breaks out, Whale Tail Harbor often becomes the main battlefield.

Eleus just got off the boat and met with Colonel Susa, and came out to comfort the morale of the soldiers on the island.

Finally, it was back to the ship.

He did not transfer his residence to the island. As the crown prince, the luxury of the interior decoration of his ship is definitely not comparable to the manor or hotel provided by Whale Tail Island. Elus is still confident about this, and he will live on the ship. It's comfortable and there's no need to move it around.

Just wait for the Amento Kingdom's fleet to arrive. After the battle, we have to go north to recover Whale Belly Island and Whale Head Island. Depending on the situation, we may be able to go further.

on deck.

A big parasol was erected.

Elus leaned on the recliner and looked through the information his father gave him before leaving.

"Cunning Sword, Vinkula, with a bounty of 15 million Berry... I remember this guy has been quite active in the past few years, but I didn't expect him to be from Umit, plus the Skull Hunter, Magic Ball Warlock, Strangler, Black Beast... The King of Sea Transport is indeed very powerful!"

Each name represents a big pirate with a bounty of hundreds of millions.

Moreover, these people have nothing to do with Umit on the surface. In other words, these pirates are all Umit’s unknown secret agents. After buying the information, you may not know that the person behind it is Umit.

Just looking at these hidden secrets, one has to sigh that the giants of the dark world are really not bluffing people, they are not paper tigers.

Umit is really confident when he dares to reach out to the Kingdom of Ecmundo.

"However, there are risks in stretching your claws."

Elvus threw away the document and looked at the setting sun that was gradually setting towards the sea level. The waves thousands of miles away were dyed with a halo of yellow.

at this time,

The phone bug rings.
