The families I intended to recommend to them were mostly those of high-ranking duchy army commanders. Looking at the list of families that had approached them, most had no real connection to the duchy army nobility.
It seemed these were nobles trying to expand their influence by using the rising Royal Artillery Corps, which was why I decided to handle the matchmaking myself. They were artillerymen, and I couldn't let them be exploited by political factions.
After going on for a while about the matchmaking, Marco asked.
"By the way, Supreme Commander, what brings you here?"
"Is there an effective way to disable a cannon for a while?"
The artillery commanders stared at me, dumbfounded that I was asking not how to fire a cannon well, but how to make one unusable. It was to wreck the enemy's cannons, not ours.
