Without saying a word, Count Sartre brought a large group of men, his two sons and a young daughter to the frontier area of ​​the Pohe defense line.

On the walls of a small city ahead, Count Sartre stayed there completely.

What caught his eye was the thousands of refugees who were trekking among the wilderness hills. After experiencing several terrible hardships such as wind, frost, cold, fatigue, hunger, robbers, and illness, they finally came to this other side they yearned for.

Looking at the tortured faces, Earl Sartre opened his mouth wide and couldn't speak for a long time. He had never seen such a picture before, as if the end of the world described in Revelation, it was so shocking, so tragic, and so tragic!

Eugen was silent and asked Count Sartre to calm down. After a moment, he spoke in a low voice: "Sir, tell me, are the poor refugees below also fake? Do you think that these poor poor people, endured the cold weather, came here from thousands of miles away? Could it be that I, Eugen?"

Eugen's question pierced into Earl Sartre's heart like a spike. Even if the Count is a slime heart, he will be touched at this moment, not to mention that he also has extraordinary emotions for these native Italian peasants.

Finally, Count Sartre could no longer control his expression. He asked in a compassionate tone: "Then Count Eugen, please tell me why these people did this? What are they for?"

"Ah..." Eugen sighed, stretched out his right hand and pointed at the direction of the people coming, saying, "Because they are running away, escaping from that terrible disease, which is like a god of death, and they can only leave the land on which they depend for survival and come to us."

Speaking of this, Eugen turned to look at Count Sartre, staring at his eyes and asked, "Count Sartre, do you really want to refuse to accept them and leave them outside the city to fend for themselves? I can tell you bluntly that if you want to fight this disease, we cannot do it without you. But I always respect your decision. If you still refuse, I will never mention the city of Verona in the future!"

Eugen's tone was neither sharp nor lyrical, as if it was just a plain statement.

But this kind of remark without any change in tone has extraordinary power. Earl Sartre looked at the refugees outside the city, looked at Eugen in front of him, and finally sighed and said, "Oh, it's me that I was wrong. I shouldn't stop you, Eugen, you are right."

"Forget it, from today on, all the troops and political institutions in Verona will obey your orders and be assigned by you. As for the account of Earl Mead, we will let go of it for the time being. After dealing with the current disaster, I will make a decision with you!"

At this last moment, Count Sartre was generous and showed the demeanor of a nobleman and a famous general.

Eugen was extremely excited. He bowed respectfully to Count Sartre and said sincerely: "Thank you, Count Sartre, you are a real knight! It's respectable enough!"

There is a joke in the empire: The lowest class among the nobles is the knight, but the highest praise for a noble is to call him a real knight!

The knight mentioned here refers to a spirit and an honor.

Eugen praised Count Sartre from the bottom of his heart. Of course, he knew how difficult it was to let go of hatred and stick to justice. Many people said it was easy, but it was difficult to do it.

But the Earl of Sartre did this, at least at this moment, he let go of his hatred for Eugen.

The eldest and second sons who followed Earl Sartre seemed displeased, but on such occasions, they did not dare to object to their father's decision in public, so they had to keep silent.

Under the command of Count Sartre, there is a standing army of 5,000 soldiers. These soldiers have undergone rigorous training and have participated in at least one battle. The overall quality can be said to be very strong.

The most commendable thing is that the five thousand soldiers adopted a level division invented by Count Sartre himself. Under the control of this level division, the lowest-level soldiers and middle- and senior officers were closely connected. If the orders were conveyed, they would soon reach the grassroots soldiers.

In this way, the entire army is truly like a whole, with very easy command, very quick commands, and very efficient execution.

This is what Eugen values ​​most. For his disaster resistance army, an army that obeys orders is much more important than an army with stronger combat effectiveness.

Because if you want to fight disease, you must be meticulous in every detail. If you want to do this, it depends on the soldiers' own quality.

In this situation, even if Eugen exchanged the same number of heavy cavalry to exchange this army with Eugen, Eugen would not be able to exchange it.

The day after reaching an agreement with Count Sartre, Verona was directly included in the Po River defense system. A team of soldiers entered it and began to transform the surrounding area of ​​the city, and at the same time notified local residents to prepare for evacuation in the form of an announcement.

On the other hand, Count Sartre's five thousand men were fully dispatched to the frontier area to assist in dealing with the refugees who arrived near the defense line and quarantine and observe them.

With the joining of 5,000 people, the defense line in the frontier area suddenly became stable, and the arrangement and management of refugees became more convenient and faster.

Eugen was not idle for several days when he lived in Verona. He had already used this to observe the surrounding situation, and his plan to transform the isolation area in Verona was even more perfect.

After refugees come to the quarantine area, they have to live for a long time, so there are many issues to consider, including food, living conditions, work and other aspects.

Fortunately, Eugen is quite experienced in this, so he can make reasonable arrangements.

Seeing that the city of Verona began to open its doors for renovation, Earl Sartre felt somewhat indescribable. He didn't know whether he agreed to Eugen was right or wrong. However, when he thought of the scene he saw that day and the poor refugees, the Earl's heart calmed down.

This is how Count Sartre acted. No matter what the matter is, whether it is right or wrong, as long as he can get through it in his heart, it is enough.

Standing alone in the high attic in the castle, looking at the situation around Verona, Earl Sartre sighed and said, "Oh, Brother Mead, I'm sorry for you, but please don't worry, just let Eugendes give him a while, there will always be a time to deal with him!"
