A city outside of Jagundu.
The Sun King's most elite Royal Guards and the Imperial Army, which was selected from ordinary soldiers, together formed the country's main military force system.
Furthermore, due to various reasons, the armies of both sides often engaged in open and covert fighting, and their respective intelligence departments and organizations also differed...
To the outside world, Oshalia is the commander of the imperial army and also represents the highest-ranking person in the ordinary army. His own abilities are strong enough, and the number of his troops is spread across cities throughout the empire. He has always been known as the strongest army to the outside world. However, among some nobles, the rarely deployed Royal Guards are still regarded as the strongest army in the empire.
And in the battle during the expedition to Zambutal more than two years ago, it was clear that the Royal Guards still had a powerful side.
So far, there is no conclusion on the comparison between the two armies...
As the third force of Jagong, the family soldiers of the nobles are a rather special force.
Their abilities vary greatly. The private soldiers of powerful nobles can almost fight against some of the imperial city's guards head-on, while the private soldiers of remote nobles may not be able to defeat a few bandits.
And the dispatch is not unified, so not many people have paid attention to them. As long as the nobles in each place can manage their own areas well, it is already good, and they don’t have to worry about things in other places.
But……
If local nobles encounter difficult problems, they will begin to seek help from the imperial army, or even from the Sun King!
And just today, local messenger eagles flew over the capital city many times.
Even the soldiers who stood at the city gate all year round rarely saw such a situation.
"Strange, is there too much news coming from the local area today?"
"I don't know. The one who just passed was the first one, right? What happened?"
Several soldiers who were discussing the matter did not know the specific situation.
At this moment, the news has officially reached the hands of various leaders...
In the summer resort, Sean, who was still on vacation, was preparing to drive to the main hall with the message he had just received in his hand. At the door was a carriage sent by the Sun King waiting outside.
"Is the situation urgent?" Frelia asked.
Sean nodded.
"Well, this is news from a city near Lugang. They say there's been another ghost sighting there, and it's on our country's coastline."
The ghost incident of the sea fog.
This is the most news I have received in recent times.
Because of the alliance between himself and Prince Longfield of the Kingdom of Tours, Sean will use his soldiers to contact the other party's subordinates, so that the news from there will reach him faster.
There have been many similar incidents in the continuous heavy fog in recent days, all of which happened in the morning or evening... because people are weak and drowsy at that time, and it is at that time that people will be dragged into the sea.
Now that more and more information has come in, the whole incident has become a little clearer...
Ghosts, it seems, can only be seen by those who are 'bewitched'.
As for the people who couldn't see, they only saw someone walking towards the sea in a daze, whispering the names of their deceased relatives.
It was like rushing towards the sea in a dream.
The strange thing is that after they merged into the sea, they disappeared in just a few seconds! We searched for a long time but couldn't find them!
"The Sun King is urgently summoning me back to the palace now, probably because of this matter. You wait for my news at home. If the two brothers and sisters from the Kingdom of Tours come over, tell them that I went to the imperial city." Sean said.
In the past few days, because of the alliance, the Longfield brothers and sisters have appeared in his manor every now and then.
We said we were just going out for a few days, but we ended up coming here all the time to eat and drink...
The prince's face was completely humiliated!
"Well, okay." Frelia replied.
Sean boarded the carriage and, driven by the palace guards, quickly returned to the palace...
……………………
When I arrived at the hall, almost all the ministers had already arrived. No one spoke in the entire hall, and the sound of my own walking in seemed particularly loud.
"Sean! You're here."
The Sun King looked up when he heard the voice and saw Sean who had just walked in.
At that moment, countless pairs of eyes looked towards the door.
Sean nodded to each of the ministers to express his greetings, and then walked to his seat.
I guess there are still some nobles in the hall who don’t know that they have moved out. After this, they will probably all know. By then, I’m afraid I will have to add more people at my doorstep.
"We're all waiting for you."
"Sorry to have kept you waiting for so long." After Sean came to his seat, he also greeted his younger brothers and sisters.
Seria was still dressed brightly and beautifully today, and she smiled slightly when she looked at Sean.
"Brother, the weather has been nice lately."
"Yes, brother. It seems that you are living a good life in your newlywed life." Mu Dan on the other end also said.
"It's okay. If you want to experience it, you should be able to do it if you hurry up." Sean responded with a smile, and the two stopped talking.
At this time, the topic has reached the point where a conclusion needs to be reached.
"Sean, I had someone explain the situation to you just now when you came."
Following the Sun King's order, a minister stood up and repeated the key points of the discussion.
It happened early this morning...
News came from the local intelligence agency that in a small town near Lugang, the recent incident of ghosts summoning people into the sea, which had been widely rumored in the east, occurred. Everything happened just as the news he had received indicated, not as strange as in the bard's story, but equally weird.
"This incident has spread from the east of Adak to our country in just over a month. It is no longer a trivial matter. If we don't take action to resolve it, it may affect the country's maritime lanes when it reaches Lugang." The Sun King added.
Lugang is the largest maritime port in Jiagong. If people there spread such rumors, it will have an impact on the country's trade exports.
The place where the incident happened this time is not far from Lukang!
"Your Majesty, I think we should send our elite troops to resolve this matter as soon as possible, otherwise the people in the central region will have a very difficult time throughout the winter."
A man who stood up from the team of ministers said.
Sean glanced at the other person.
I still remember this man's name, I think it was Brown Iffley.
"Yes, we should send troops as soon as possible."
"yes!"
After the other party said this, the ministers below also echoed it.
"Who's willing to volunteer?"
"Father, let me go!"
What Sean didn't expect was that Seria next to him stood up.
