Chapter 268 Goodbye Kallen
"Let the legion advance along the coastline. I will have people prepare ships and set up supply points for you along the way." Purficott glanced at the staff officer of the 17th Guards Division After thinking about the marching route plan prepared by the Ministry, I made some adjustments.
Hearing what Purficott said, several staff members studied the map and did not particularly object, but they also raised a question: "But Lord, if we march along the coastline, what will happen to us?" The local environment is unfamiliar and we need the assistance of local guides.”
This is not because these staff members are being pretentious, or because they don’t need local guides if they take the land route, but the terrain of the coastline in the north is very complicated. Fragmented and scattered throughout the fjords and foothills.
Walking along the coastline is basically the same as climbing over mountains and ridges. Compared with taking the inland route, the terrain is several times more rugged and complex.
Naturally, Purficott also considered this. She thought for a while and said: "I will ask the local tribes in the north to send people to assist you in marching. In addition, there is no need to worry about the rugged terrain.
In addition, you don’t need to follow the coastline completely. I just arrange supply points in the coastal areas. You just need to take these supply points into consideration when planning the route.”
This of Perfect Court. The explanation made the staff feel relieved. They were worried that Perficott would force them to walk along the coastline, which would cause a huge loss of physical strength and morale of the soldiers.
After all, at night on the beach, the cold and humid sea breeze full of salt can really kill people, even if the temperature is not very cold now.
If you are marching inland, at least this issue does not need to be considered.
If you don't need to follow the coastline completely, it will be much more friendly to the planning of the march route and the soldiers themselves.
"Now that the direction has been set, I will leave other specific matters to you. Plan the route later, and after confirming the supply points, I will have people deliver supplies according to the supply points you planned." Perfico Seeing that the staff had approved the plan and plan, Te said nothing more. He just asked Befa to put away the black tea cup, then stood up and prepared to leave the military camp.
But when she got up, the officers from Pignisberg rushed over and tried to persuade her to stay: "Your Majesty, we have prepared a dinner, you..."
" The dinner is in the evening, and it's still early before dark. I plan to take a walk around Pignisberg and arrange a guide for me." Purficott ignored his words and just asked the other party to provide him with a guide.
The officer quickly shut up when he saw this, and then hurriedly called a young second lieutenant.
"Second Lieutenant Kevin Ordesia of the Fourth Militia Regiment of Pignisberg reports to you!" The young second lieutenant has a tall and straight figure and a handsome face, and he looks very capable and sunny, which makes him feel very capable and sunny. Purficott's first impression of him was favorable.
"Hello Lieutenant, I plan to visit Pignisberg in the afternoon. If you can help me, you can be my guide." Purficott stared at the Second Lieutenant in front of him, and suddenly asked one more question: "Mr. Second Lieutenant ,Have I seen you anywhere before?"
"When you first returned to the New World, you held an exhibition in New Xia Ke City. My grandmother was invited, but she was unwilling to attend. , I participated in that exhibition with my sister, I think you should have seen me at that time," Kevin explained to Purficott.
Hearing this answer, Purficott's eyes became a little weird, and then asked: "I don't think your sister is called Kallen?"
"Yes. Yes, my sister is indeed called Kallen. Sir, have you seen her?" Kevin had a surprised expression on his face, and he didn't seem to be faking it.
After confirming that her guess was correct, Purficott felt the urge to laugh or cry, but she did not show this emotion. She just asked Kevin: "Then where is your sister now? Last time she was there I had a great time chatting with her in New Shaker City, and I want to meet her now." The last time Purficott was sure that she had indeed "executed" Kallen, but at that time she asked Claudia to send Kallen away. , without making a big announcement or making it known to everyone. Everyone only knew that Perficott caught the thief and then executed him.
As for whether the person executed was a man or a woman, and who the other person’s last name was, not many people knew.
So it was not a surprise for Purficott that Kallen took back her identity.
Just being able to meet Kallen's brother here still made Purfict sigh in his heart. At the same time, he also wanted to see Kallen again to see if she gained any insights from the knowledge he taught her. .
However, at this time, Kevin replied with a somewhat embarrassed expression: "I'm afraid I must disappoint you, Lord Earl. Since she came back from New Shaker City last time, Kallen has been obsessed with traveling and is not in Pignisberg now. ”
Hearing this answer, Purficott was not surprised, but felt a sense of unexpected joy.
In her opinion, Kallen's trip was probably an excuse, and she was probably using it as a cover to carry out other activities.
So Purficott was not disappointed, and just said to Kevin: "In that case, then Lieutenant Kevin Lao will be my guide today and take me to visit Pignisberg. . ”
“It’s my honor.” Kevin naturally would not refuse this task.
------------------- Workers held a rally.
Here, Kallen, who had disguised herself and sneaked out in the name of traveling, was preaching to the workers in the bar the knowledge that Professor Perfectcott had given her.
This is what she started doing after she returned to Pignisberg from Novyshak City. She did not organize any movement, nor did she try to advocate for anything through theft as she did in the past.
She just organized these workers and then preached to them some very simple truths that could make them understand something.
But Karen discovered through such preaching that telling the workers the real source of their suffering and what they needed was far more effective than what she had done in the past.
When Kallen was about to tell these workers what they really needed, a child who looked like a street newsboy suddenly ran in, rushed to Kallen and whispered to her: "Sister, The news I just heard is that the Earl of the North has come to Pignisberg!”
