Chapter 433 Rescue
In the end, Karl failed to fulfill his oath to dedicate his blood to the Kingdom of Swachic. Although he and his remnant army bravely charged the line infantry shooting in three lines, but because the soldiers deliberately Unintentionally stood in front of him, so although Karl managed to get into the crowd alive, he had no chance to fight the enemy head-on. He could only be forced into a dilemma by the shining bayonet, and finally fell into a group surrounded by several soldiers. I was knocked out directly.

After killing the last resistance force, the soldiers of the Second Army rushed into the Fauzis Palace in the center of the city. Because of strict military discipline restrictions, they did not dare to plunder the wealth in the palace at will, and could only restrain themselves. I ignored the pile of priceless treasures and took over the palace.

Soldiers are more inclined to abide by military discipline than the wealth that is at their fingertips but does not belong to them. They are very clear in their hearts that as long as they can continue to stay in the army, the spoils of war in the future will be more than this, and their value will be more than these things. higher.

The soldiers who took over the entire palace quickly found King Titos who was under house arrest in the bedroom. At this time, his hair was disheveled, and his clothes had not been changed for many days. They didn't want to know what caused it, because the whole dormitory was filled with a sour smell, which made the soldiers' faces change slightly, and they had to withdraw one by one.

When he learned that it was Winster's army who rescued him, Old King Titos's ashen face suddenly became a little more colorful. Regardless of the disgust of the people around him, he grabbed the leading officer's hand and asked questions repeatedly. Said: "Where is Karl, that despicable usurper?"

Smelling the stink from Titos' body, the officer who was held by him couldn't imagine how the other party got into this state after only being locked up for a few days. He replied: "Your Majesty, please rest assured that the usurper has been captured by our army, and his accomplices are also being hunted down."

"Damn things, I must hang them!" The old king cursed angrily, then as if realizing his current situation, he stopped cursing angrily, looked at the officer in front of him, and said, "Your general Who is it? Please take me to him."

"Uh..." Hearing this, the officer hesitated to speak. He looked at the old king's distressed appearance without any trace, thought about his words, and said tactfully: "Your Majesty, as the king of Swachiqi, you The ruler of your country is supposed to show nobility in front of everyone, but it is really hard to see your current appearance, so I take the liberty of asking you to clean up first, and then meet with our generals."

After being said by the officer, Titos realized that his current appearance was really difficult to see, but he still said stubbornly: "The reason why the king is noble is because his status is supreme, no matter what kind of image he is under. Meet, he is noble."

"However." He suddenly changed the subject again, "What you said also makes sense, a noble person cannot belittle his identity because of his appearance, so please allow me to clean up first, and then meet with your general .”

After Titos left, the officer withdrew his hand in disgust, and wiped a few swabs on his military uniform, as if he wanted to wipe off the stench on it. The soldiers behind him saw him like this I couldn't help laughing out of the movement, until the officer who heard the laughter turned back and glared at them, he stopped laughing resentfully.

He glared at them fiercely for a few more times before the officer looked away. He touched the high military cap on his head, as if thinking of something, his eyes lit up, and he shouted at the soldiers of his company: "Everyone is here!" ,stand at attention."

As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers stood upright like a conditioned reflex, maintaining a standing motion, and then he said: "Keep this posture until King Titos returns to his position, and be careful, you represent It is the glory of the Kingdom Army, don't let the overthrown king look down on you!"

"Yes!"

Although they knew that the officers were trying to punish themselves on purpose, the soldiers could not refute it. After all, in the army, obeying military orders is the most important thing. If they dare to disobey the military orders, they will be directly arrested by the gendarmerie and sent to a military court—forgot to say , There is also a gendarmerie in the brigade-level establishment. They are not combatants. Their responsibility is to supervise the discipline of the army and they are directly under the military department.And all soldiers who disobeyed the military order and were captured by the gendarmerie would be sent to a military court specially set up by Richard. This small court was only set up in the military department to deal with those who violated discipline. The commander must submit to the Supreme Court in Nord for trial, and the rest can be handled within the Legion itself.

It is precisely because of the existence of the gendarmerie and military court established by Richard that the discipline in the army is unprecedentedly strict. Soldiers no longer dare to easily violate military discipline, and the embryonic form of the modern army can be seen vaguely.

……

It took King Titos nearly an hour to finally wash and put on brand-new luxury clothes before appearing in front of the officers and company soldiers waiting for him. Looking at this superior who seemed to have changed his person, the officer first saluted He gave a military salute, and then said: "Your Majesty, General Horn arrived at Fauzis Palace more than ten minutes ago and is waiting to meet you. Please come with us."

"Okay, sir, please lead the way." Titos said, his eyes inadvertently glanced at the statue-like soldiers standing behind the officer, he was a little surprised, more surprised. "They..." He wanted to ask, but as soon as the words came out, the officer guessed what he said before he said it. The latter smiled slightly and said, "It's just standing in a military posture, oh, you may not know how to stand in a military posture." What do you mean, this is a necessary subject for our military training, and it was also proposed by His Majesty the King himself."

After speaking, the officer made a gesture of invitation and said, "Please, Your Majesty the King."

King Titos had no choice but to follow his gestures and walked forward. They only walked a few steps when the deputy commander of the company who was standing behind the officer suddenly spoke and shouted, "Turn right and walk in unison!"

After the words fell, the entire company seemed to have been pressed a certain switch. The soldiers who were standing still turned to the right together, and then followed the officer with uniform steps. King Titos was taken aback. He had been in power for so many years, but he had never seen such an army.

At such a moment, he seemed to suddenly understand why the Winsters were victorious in every battle. Looking at the entire Valdasia Peninsula, which country's army can rival the Winsters' army?
