Compared with the overseas legion led by Paulina, who continued to move around the front to conquer cities and seize territory; the suppression corps led by Madurand, with a total of seven regiments and 26 companies, was responsible for suppressing and clearing the rear, and ensuring the transfer of troops to depots and troops along the way.

Logistics and supply lines are kept smooth.

Therefore, compared with the glory and achievements achieved by the overseas legions on the frontal battlefield, the tasks and responsibilities that Madurand is responsible for are much more complicated and detailed. These include but are not limited to suppressing those newly occupied areas, the old and new royal parties/old aristocrats

, the continued resistance of the separatist armed forces.

Exterminate or surrender, and transform the bandits and refugee groups that emerged due to the changes in the war-torn world; and even accept the requests of local government officials to solve a series of problems and threats posed by the more active aliens. Therefore, he is not

Being in the military camp means being on the road.

Also because he handled the trial and was hanged on the roadside, there were too many old nobles/rebels; they were even secretly informing and colluding with sympathizers and helpers. Madurand gained the reputation of "The Hanger" or "The Hanger" among the people.

It's "Nangshou Man", such a daunting nickname.

But as his overt or potential enemy, they prefer to scold him secretly, calling him a "bad sergeant" or a "veteran commander"; because he always executes orders meticulously and promotes plans step by step.

Rarely express personal opinions and opinions.

But it is also because of Madurand's impartiality in most things, and even some harsh self-discipline; he seldom mixes personal emotions and likes and dislikes. People who feel that they benefit from it respect him as "the just horse".

"Ang" or "Integrity Leader"...

Of course, the reason and origin of all this is simply that he believed that he had a shallow foundation and limited knowledge, but due to a rare opportunity, he was entrusted with the important task of regiment commander. Therefore, he has always been fearful, humble and awe-minded, and kept learning.

and strive to be a performer.

Especially during the period when the man who valued and supported him entered the tower to meditate and temporarily escaped from the world; he became more cautious and low-key in everything he said and did, and worked hard to cooperate with Paulina's overseas legion in the military, playing the role of

A kind of second-in-command and partner role.

However, the subtle attitude that had occurred between Lyon's national salvation government and the returning Pauline Legion was to never interfere with the position of either party. Even in the face of discussions and rumors among the army, he always firmly believed that the

The return of the adults is sufficient to solve all problems.

Therefore, when the edict that he was made Viscount of Marienburg was delivered together with the new appointment letter, Madurand was truly relieved. In this way, he no longer had to worry about possible incidents within the Free Army.

There were disagreements and arguments, and the mind was restless and troubled day and night.

Therefore, according to Madurand's conjecture, the real obstacles and resistance encountered at the inquiry meeting were the pious company led by the chief priest Lacha, who questioned the attitude and position. However, when Madurand was at the sentry posts at all levels, he blocked the accompanying guards and

The counselor came to the conference hall alone.

The person he applied for marriage in private was also the language and etiquette teacher he hired privately; a gentle and decent lady who was said to be the widow of a former naval officer of the Kingdom. It was also in the constant sadness that he was convinced that his family had disappeared, and he was able to get close to her.

He is the one who soothes the soul.

So a moment later, Madurand saw his lover and personal tutor in the temporary prison cell. She was a woman who was only twenty-seven years old, with a soft face, dignified and elegant; she was wearing a flower-woven tunic.

Skirt, looks like everyday life.

"Why... it would be like this." After hearing this, Madurand slowly loosened the arm holding his head and said: "As a stakeholder in this matter, I am willing to accept all the consequences and costs.

But there is only one request, let me see her one last time."

In a sense, any marriage between high-level officers and generals in the Free Army, as well as those in the national salvation government, will be subject to background checks/double reviews from the Supervisory Company and the Pious Company. Madurand, who is the commander of the Corps, is no exception;

However, something happened in this matter.

However, his efforts to suppress his true emotions and his calm performance after receiving the edict won more praise in the eyes of his subordinates; it was regarded as a symbol of loyalty and belief. In any case, he was completely relaxed.

Madurand suddenly wanted to get married.

"So, after seizing this breakthrough, the internal service company and the supervisory company quickly implicated multiple conspirators and even suspected collaborators; but there was still lack of sufficient evidence; to directly accuse such a person,

A lady of good outward character and morals.”

Except for the exquisite and small handcuffs, there were no other coercive measures or restraints. However, the moment she saw Madurand, her rapidly changing shock, suspicion, and finally relief and indifference also made him

It was particularly unforgettable. After a thousand words, only one sentence remained on his lips: "Why? Noelle. Obviously, I can give you happiness and a future."

"Although the manor had been destroyed and looted, our people found the only remaining gardener and cook. According to their descriptions, there was a deviation from the image of the lady; then, we found the ruins of the family church.

, found a portrait of this lady when she was young."

"In the end, through comparison of details, we were convinced that she was not the real navy widow; rather, she was an inexplicable substitute who happened to appear." Athos gave him a vaguely sympathetic look and said, "Despite this, it's still true.

Not enough for us to take direct action against her."

What he met was an unexpected person, the current captain of the second company of the military police; he was also one of the three people who dared to challenge the king together in the past, Athos, a former Bratban mercenary. However, when he met

The moment he saw the other party, Madurand's heart suddenly sank.

"However, my subordinates made a suggestion to create a suitable opportunity to test the lady to see if there was a possibility of leaking the secret. As a result, faced with this obvious loophole, the lady remained indifferent; but a person beside her

The female companion couldn't help it."

"However, all of this has been completely destroyed by you and your despicable accomplices; even if you pretend to let women and children go, my companions and I have to live on the streets and rely on satisfying those low-class people.

Only in exchange for your desire can you survive tomorrow."

"It wasn't until your letter suddenly revealed such good news that she revealed some flaws. She did not tell the close people around her the good news at the first time, but hurried to a small church outside the city... Then,

We caught the bell ringer who was hiding his identity."

"Why?" The dignified woman named Noelle suddenly seemed to have changed into a different person. She smiled frivolously and charmingly at him: "I have been born with happiness, my family, and my manor.

, my husband and lover, my bestie and private salon.”

"Of course, this is also the king's order." However, Athos nodded and said: "Therefore, we have not taken any torture or other tough measures against her so far, and we are just waiting for you to come back to see her.

, and then make a decision on the subsequent processing methods and results.”

Naturally, there was no chance to commit any unforgivable blood debts and sins against the people at the bottom. On the contrary, they stayed away from the regime change and faction purge in the capital. Although most of the generals with noble backgrounds ran away, the remaining basic

Absorbed by the Free Army.

"After a thorough investigation, it was found that this was not a simple leak, or an act of secretly selling intelligence for money and interests." However, Athos, who as a military police company commander rarely showed his emotions, sighed in a rare way:

"It involves a network of northern spies."

"Then... you..., none of the words and vows you have said are sincere?" In the end, Madurand, who was speechless for a long time due to the catharsis, couldn't help but ask: "Then...

I swear in the name of God..."

In other words, although Athos is only a military police company commander with the rank of captain, which is far lower than Madurand's current rank and military position; but the importance of the responsibilities he is responsible for and the trust he receives from the upper levels of the Free Army

, but it is not much worse than Madurand, an old boss.

"It also involves the leakage of the king's travel route and the subsequent attacks..." When he heard this, Madurand was already cold and his hands and feet were numb. He fell down on his seat in despair, in pain.

He held his head and groaned: "Why is this like this?"

Of course, this is not a big problem. As officers and sergeants of the Free Army, it is not that there are no examples of marrying ladies from down-and-out aristocrats; often in the process of communicating with each other, hindered by the power of the Free Army, more or less will

He has concealed his background.

It's just that when you reach the level of a regiment commander, it will become more serious; and Madurand doesn't want to lose this woman who is rare for him to appreciate and like, so he can only hand over the army to his reliable subordinates and rush back to participate in such a battle in person.

A special inquiry session.

Even though Madurand, as a regimental commander with the rank of brigadier general, could only suppress his excitement and move his lips, he asked with difficulty in a tone of despair: "Since you are here, is everything really true?"

Has it reached the point of no return?"

Among them, the supervisory company is mainly responsible for past background investigations and criminal records related to the Free Army regulations. After all, the special nature and responsibilities of the Royal Navy determine that they are unlikely to be involved in local disputes, or with those old nobles.

collude to exploit the people.

"And the lady you want to apply for marriage is the most critical node." Athos continued to tell the bloody facts: "Through her development and negotiation, at least a dozen people were ordered to provide her with information.

and induced more people to inadvertently leak intelligence."

"So, why should I rely on your charity for happiness! You thugs and rebels have clearly taken away everything I should have, and then you are content to leave some scraps behind, just like the toys of cats and dogs. I

I wish you all should go to hell."

"In fact, in our initial investigation, there was no doubt about her being a navy widow. Even if she concealed her brother who had fled abroad, it wouldn't be a big problem." However, Athos continued: "But because of your look, our

Investigators found her hometown again."

Because, as the only special company within the Free Army that has maximum execution power and convenience, every appearance of the military police company often represents conclusive evidence and unquestionable results. What's more, it is this person known as "Unless

The commander of the company, "The Facer", is personally responsible.

"Of course... no!" However, the woman named Noelle just glanced at him and sneered coldly: "I am the only one who is better than most of the people I have experienced."

However, after Madurand walked out in despair, he saw another nun from the ambulance company. She said a few words in the ear of Athos who was accompanying him, causing his expression to change slightly. Then he said to Madurand

: "One piece of good news, one piece of bad news."

"Please tell me the bad news first!" Madurand responded numbly and tiredly:

"The bad news is that Noelle, as an enemy spy, has caused unforgivable damage to the Free Army and has been ordered to take all means of thorough investigation." Athos nodded and said: "But the good news is,

She has just been diagnosed with signs of pregnancy, so she will live a little longer."
