Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 696. The beginning of the mission

DeWitt, who was standing in the audience, did not expect that he would be suddenly called out, and his whole face was full of surprise.

Aubrey stepped forward and patted his shoulder and said, "His Highness has called your name. Just go up and say a few words."

"Yes..." A trace of embarrassment appeared on Devitt's face, and he nodded to Aubrey in a panic. He walked quickly to the steps next to the general stage, raised his eyes and glanced at Kant, who was standing in the center of the general stage, and found that Kant was also looking at him. He hurriedly lowered his head and walked to Kant's side at a faster pace.

"Hello, lord." DeWitt saluted Kant.

"Yes." Kant nodded, walked to the side of the main general stage, and vacated his seat.

DeWitt nervously raised his head and looked at the soldiers in the audience. After noticing the encouragement in their eyes. DeWitt took a deep breath and tried to relax his stiff body into a natural state.

"All comrades, I am your captain DeWitt. We will set off tomorrow, and I hope everyone can be well prepared before traveling. The place we are going to this time is a territory that our Calradian soldiers have never reached before. , it is also far away from Dehreim. I don’t know how many hardships and hardships we will encounter on the road and when performing tasks. I hope we can overcome every difficulty together. Complete the tasks assigned to us by His Highness, all Everyone returned to Calradia safely!" DeWitt spoke calmly.

"Okay!" The soldiers standing in the audience shouted and applauded.

After bowing deeply, DeWitt turned sideways and looked at Kant.

Kant also applauded along with the soldiers in the audience and walked to the center of the general stage.

"Yes. Captain DeWitt said it right. He said almost everything I wanted to say." Kant concluded with a smile: "This mission is left to you. I hope you will not shrink back if you encounter any hardships. The Calradia Empire will be your strongest backing."

The swearing-in ceremony entered into its usual routine, and Kant stayed by the general stage and watched silently.

It wasn't until Captain Aubrey came on stage and announced the end of the swearing-in meeting that the soldiers dispersed in small groups.

Tonight's evening training, the team heading out tomorrow does not need to participate.

This time it will take at least three months for the team to complete their mission and return to Calradia.

"These two dozen soldiers shouldn't be able to go home for the New Year this year." Aubrey said with emotion when sending Kant out of the training ground.

"Yes. Let the soldiers leave a letter home. Before setting off for the battle." Kant instructed. His voice was like the breeze on this autumn evening, carrying a sad coolness.

"Yes, Your Highness," Aubrey replied.

"I've worked hard on you these past few days." Kant comforted him again: "I'll give you a day off for the next two days. Let's forget about the work of the guards for now."

"It's okay, Your Highness." Aubrey shook his head and said, "I want to pass on some of the will of the soldiers in the army to the men in the Guards while it's hot. They are usually too lazy and have long since It’s time to straighten things out.”

"Okay, then consider it that I owe you two days of leave. Whenever you want to take a break, just tell me." Kant said with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Aubrey saluted Kant and said.

Kant waved his hand and stepped onto the palace carriage. The groom immediately drove the carriage to the palace.

On the second day, a reconnaissance team composed of more than 20 soldiers, led by Dewit, set out from Dehreim. Aubrey rode to the city gate early to see them off. And brought greetings from His Highness Kant.

"DeWitt, you must be careful on the road. If you are targeted by some wandering forces in the desert, you must act within your capabilities and don't be tough." Aubrey asked worriedly: "As a reconnaissance agent The captain of the team must take the responsibility of leading the team on his shoulders.”

"Yes, Captain Aubrey," DeWitt replied.

"Clement, as the vice-captain, you should always think more about the team.

Do you understand? "Aubrey said seriously to a young warrior standing next to DeWitt.

"I understand, Captain Aubrey. I will definitely assist Captain DeWitt." Clemont responded.

"Okay, I have nothing more to say. You can set off." Aubrey said goodbye, holding the horse and sending everyone outside the city gate.

"Captain Aubrey, goodbye!" the soldiers saluted in unison.

"Yeah. Goodbye." Aubrey nodded and replied.

Everyone got on their camels and marched neatly towards the Elf Kingdom.

Aubrey rushed back to the palace. From today on, he will take over the work of the guard from others.

Walking inside the palace gate, Aubrey heard the news that Kant was summoning him.

He quickly walked to the door of the Senate Hall again.

"Lord." Aubrey saluted.

"Have you just come back from the city gate?" Kant raised his head from a pile of texts, looked at Aubrey and asked.

"Yeah. It looks like the soldiers are in good spirits," Aubrey replied.

"If you say that, I feel relieved." Kant nodded and said, "I will return to the guards today."

"Yes. In the past few days, the work of the Guards has been handled by my men. They should have wanted me to go back and take over." Aubrey said with a smile.

"Well, I have nothing else to do with you. I just want to ask about the status of your soldiers who are going on the expedition." Kant responded with a smile.

"Yes. Your Highness," Aubrey said hesitantly, "I have a request. I wonder if you can agree to it?"

"What?" Kant raised his eyes and asked.

"Although, I know that my task is only to train the soldiers you need, Your Highness. The next thing has nothing to do with me." Aubrey's expression seemed a little tangled: "But I still want to try to ask: In the future, I Can I hear from you about the soldiers on the front line..."

"Huh?" Kant raised his eyebrows, and then said: "Of course. If you want."

"Thank you, Lord!" Aubrey bowed to the ground happily.

"It's okay. But I didn't expect that Captain Aubrey would care so much about the soldiers he handles." Kant shook his head and said.

"Although they have only been under my command for three days, I am still a little worried about what kind of difficulties they will encounter on the front line." Aubrey explained.

"Yeah." Kant nodded. He didn't say anything more.

Aubrey heard the permission from Kant, bid farewell to Kant happily, and exited the Senate Hall.

Kant continued to immerse himself in the copywriting. Before the scouts arrived in the Elf Kingdom, the matter of the Dwarf Kingdom could only be temporarily put aside.
