Lord of the Oasis

The next day, the document of Kant's instructions was delivered to Bandak's home.

After seeing the result, Bandak rushed to the military camp with doubts. Within today, he would not only announce the candidate for the new commander, but also communicate the upcoming expedition to every soldier.

During the routine gathering, Bandak stood on the general stage and said to the soldiers below: "Today will be the first day of the new commander's inauguration - the new commander Derrick!! He will take the lead with me! Troops fight against the Lizardmen and Jackals!"

Derrick stood beside the main commander's platform, even though he had been informed before that he was the new leader chosen by the lord. But at this moment, his mind was still blank.

When Bandak invited him to deliver a speech in front of the general stage, his eyes almost turned red: "I believe I will lead everyone well, and I hope everyone can respond to me immediately."

There was cheers and approval from the soldiers in the audience. After the assembly, the soldiers of the troops under Derrick's command even rushed to the stage to congratulate Derrick.

Bandak nodded and did not immediately go over to say anything. Instead, he asked the officer on the side to count the number of combat-ready people in the army.

After the people around Derrick dispersed, Bandak stepped forward and stretched out his hand to him: "Congratulations, we will be of the same level from now on."

Derrick lowered his head and held his hand humbly, with tears in his eyes. He seemed to be too excited to speak.

Bandak carefully asked him whether he knew the commander's responsibilities, and immediately handed over some powers and responsibilities to Derrick in front of the soldiers in the army.

"The commander appointed you as the commander-in-chief among the three. I hope you can fulfill his expectations." Bandak finally conveyed the message.

"I will definitely work hard to get recognition." Derrick promised. He is only twenty-one years old, but he shoulders responsibilities that are more than ten times heavier than those of his peers.

Bandak nodded, turned and left.

After leaving the military camp, Bandak took the roster given to him by the officer below and went to the palace.

After some greetings, Bandak handed the roster to Kant. The army would count the number of lieutenants and generals available for combat every month and hand it over.

It's just that I have to go out to compete this month, so the date for roster submission has been moved forward some time.

"Yeah." After Kant took over the roster,

Start reading.

But Bandak was always sitting aside, watching him quietly.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?" Kant stopped checking and looked up at Bandak.

Bandak heard Lord Kant's sudden question and said hesitantly: "Lord, the candidate for the new president this time..."

"That's right." Kant then remembered the matter of yesterday's approval and said to Bandak, "I'm sorry, I didn't use the person you recommended."

"No, no, no, it doesn't matter." Bandak hurriedly denied.

Bandak was just curious about how Derrick would shine in Kant's heart if he could become the new leader.

After all, under Bandak's observation, Derrick just treated others with humility and gentleness.

After listening to Bandak's thoughts, Kant asked: "What kind of country do you think Dehreim is now?"

"Huh?" Bandak didn't expect to be asked, and after thinking for a while, he replied: "Growing period?"

"Yes." Kant affirmed: "Dehrim's current situation is that it is a country in the middle of development that has reached a new level. In this context, it is best to think of someone with a gentle personality like Derrick. It can calm the dissatisfaction and resentment in everyone's hearts, and the same is true in the army. During this stage, people are unable to achieve what they want and have more than they want. Due to people's greed and desire, their views on the things around them will also change. They have to be very sensitive. And a leader like Derrick will make them know how to be content at all times."

After hearing these words, Bandak hesitated and said, "But when I asked him about it, he didn't seem to have the confidence to occupy the position of commander."

Kant nodded first, and then said: "I read the information you gave me. He has only been in the army for two years. But he has been promoted to the position of a senior officer, which proves that his learning ability is indeed very strong. It's okay to not be confident. It is part of his own personality, and he may not be confident in the future. He will often doubt himself, but I think such a person is suitable as a leader. Only when he doubts himself can he listen to others when making decisions. His opinions will not push his team to a dead end."

Bandak was finally convinced by Kant's words. Before he could even speak, he praised Kant for his thoughtfulness.

I heard Kant jokingly say: "Actually, I can guess that you will choose Portlem. He is so similar to you before. His temperament, strengths, etc. are simply carved from the same mold. So is Bill, and Pem is also very similar. I don't want to read your growth history again. Speaking of which, choosing Derrick is a last resort."

Bandak froze on the spot and wanted to say something, but was unable to refute.

After confirming the candidate for the new commander, the entire army officially entered into preparations for the war.

Previously, some soldiers came back from the battlefield in the Elf Kingdom, and many new recruits came to them to inquire about the details of the Elf Kingdom and so on.

Bandak joined the training team in the previous battle. He suffered many injuries to tendons and bones. There will be another war soon, and we must be fully prepared before that.

Although Bandak has been separated from the regular training of the army for a long time, he can still often take the lead in training tasks.

The other soldiers were surprised.

"I won't be happy if you keep messing with me like this." Bandak said jokingly.

Seeing the fierce light flashing in Bandak's eyes, all the young warriors couldn't help breaking out in cold sweat. This was not a joke to them, it was completely a warning to them to improve their training progress.

All the soldiers began to train hard.

"Compared to the real battlefield, what you are going through now is still far behind." Bandak ordered from the commander's stage.

Finally, on the day of the expedition, Kant led the guards in the palace to send them outside the city gate.

"Lord, since we go on expeditions so frequently, you don't have to come to see us off in person every time," Bandak suggested.

"No, the more times I go to battle, the more I should be here every time." Kant replied with a smile.

Bandak also smiled, knelt down and saluted, then stepped onto the camel's back.
