Bowen could know that Miden had intended to murder John, and Bank naturally also got the news.
At the same time, this was also the cause of quarrels and discord between them.
But the biggest factor should still be attributed to the collapse of the command system.
Bank repeatedly asked Miden to obey him, but the guy always found reasons and excuses to deliberately keep a distance from him.
As a member of the Habs family, Bank will naturally not feel comfortable.
Once a conflict occurs, the already tense relationship between the two will naturally be infinitely amplified.
Sophia only heard Bowen say it once, but in fact, Bank and Miden had fought more than once.
For example, at today's banquet, the Northern Legion only showed up with a few minor figures, so you can see the problem.
And since Miden had planned to get rid of John, whether he would find an opportunity to deal with Lorne, Bank couldn't give Sophia the guarantee she wanted.
However, he took some precautionary measures to separate Lorne from the Northern Army.
Once the war started, Miden would have no chance even if he wanted to harm Lorne.
But after he showed Sophia the defense plan, the bishop still refused to give up.
"How the orcs will attack us is still unknown, and we still don't know where they will be their main target.
You don't think that a defense map can solve those green-skinned monsters?"
After staying on the grassland border for so many years, this was the first time that Bank was pointed at by a woman.
But if he is unable to command all the armies, he has to make appropriate adjustments and accommodations as a last resort.
For example, with the Fast family, Bank made some concessions.
Otherwise, how to arrange Lorne?
Why would he need to send his son to coordinate.
But what surprised Bank was Sophia's last words.
The bishop, whose purpose was not to embarrass Bank, continued.
"If a special situation arises and the Fast family has to fight side by side with the Northern Army, a person who cannot be trusted is by their side.
How much combat power can we use to deal with the orcs if we restrain each other?
Baron Fast also told me that he would not believe anyone unless it was the Legion Commander.
Before I came, he also asked me to convey a message to the legion commander.
The Fast family is willing to fully support the Legion Commander.
If you need it, the Fast family is willing to share your worries. " As she spoke, the woman took out a letter from her body, with the coat of arms of the Fast family and Lorne's personal seal on it.
Of course, the content inside is all written by Sophia herself.
Lorne just stamped it without even checking the specific content carefully.
But Lorne was the only one who didn't take credit seriously, while Bank valued Sophia's words and the letters delivered to him.
While the legion commander read the letter, Sophia continued.
"An army can only have one commander.
This time the orcs are coming fiercely.
If we let our internal problems go unresolved, a loophole will eventually appear and the northern border will be in danger."
Having been a soldier for so long, Bank naturally understands the consequences of someone in the army disobeying orders.
Originally, he thought that Lorne also belonged to this category, but after reading Baron Fast's letter, at least he didn't need to worry about Lorne being a covert person.
With Lorne's support, John is no longer a variable.
Listening to what Sophia said, Bank was indeed a little moved.
It's just that Midden is Otto's designated agent after all.
If he attacks Midden, others will mistakenly think that he wants to take advantage of the orc invasion to become bigger.
In the end, wouldn't he be pushed to the forefront?
"What does the bishop think I should do to ensure the safety of the North?"
It was not convenient for him to take action himself, but since Baron Fast was so sincere, Bank did not mind listening to Sophia's opinion.
Seeing Bank's softened attitude, Sophia was not polite, and the bishop's words were also more straightforward.
“In the final analysis, Midendaksi is only temporarily responsible for the Northern Army, and the Northern Army has always been in charge of members of the Habsburg family.

Sir Otto's whereabouts are unknown, and when he can no longer shoulder his responsibilities, it is up to other members of the Habsburg family to step forward. " The direct troops should naturally be controlled by those close to them.
Bank was able to become the commander of the Habsburg Army because he was close to the Grand Duke of the North and was a member of the Habsburg family.
As for Miden, in the final analysis, he is just a confidant of Otto.
If Otto becomes the Archduke of the North, maybe this guy will have a chance to stay in his current position.
But now that Alto is missing, Midden should naturally return his position to the Habs family.
Bank agrees with this.
It’s just that in terms of candidates, it’s not that easy to choose.
What's more, even if he is selected, he will not be able to intimidate the superior and junior officers of the Northern Army.
Of course, if Bank himself takes on the role, he can still capture the Northern Army with his prestige.
But how could Sophia allow Bank to do this?
As soon as she said she wanted to choose a member of the Habs family, she rejected the most suitable Bank.
"It's a pity that the commander of the army must not only be responsible for the Habsburg Army, but also have to worry about the military of the entire defense line.
Otherwise, your Excellency is the most suitable candidate."
One person cannot control two legions, this is the custom in the north.
This was another reason why Bank did not take the initiative to do so.
The blood relationship with the Northern Archduke of this generation was too far apart, and the legion commander did not want to go to all the trouble to grab such a position that was destined to be unstable.
But when he heard Sophia directly vetoing him, Bank, who had been around for so many years, immediately guessed Sophia's purpose.
Sure enough, after saying a few words, the woman gave her choice.
"Miss Anna Hubbs is Otto's biological sister.
Since Sir Otto cannot be found, Miss Anna should replace her brother."
What state Anna is in now, Bank already knows from his son.
What's the difference between handing the Northern Army into Anna's hands and handing it over to Lorne directly?
Besides, if he remembered correctly, Anna should still be pregnant now.
How could a woman with a big belly command the Northern Army?
Even if Anna was acting in name, she still had to show up.
Thinking of Anna's unmarried status and appearing in front of the Northern Army with a big belly, wouldn't the Habs family be completely embarrassed?
Although Bank did not object to Anna inheriting the Northern Army, he would never allow such a shameful thing to happen.
"I heard that Anna seems to be feeling a little uncomfortable recently.
Can her body allow her to assume such an identity?"
After all, it was considered a family scandal of the Habs family, so Bank said it more euphemistically, but his meaning was clear
