Chapter 1076
"Oh, Loren and Charlotte, are you so fast!"
In the spacious camp, a long table occupies one third space , Sitting directly opposite the camp gate with a smile on Brandon, flanked by the deputy commander of Broken Boundary Mountain, Drecis and Grand Duke Poye Salika Jonah.
Loren and Charlotte, who walked into the camp, happened to occupy the last part of the long table.
His Royal Highness propped his elbows on the table, gently patted his palms, and the corners of his mouth were filled with an innocent and brilliant smile.
"Okay, okay, so that everyone is here-let us have one heart and one heart, and a happy mood to discuss together and discuss what we should do next!"
In a good mood? One heart and one mind?
I glanced at the cold-faced Dresis, and the scimitar female grandfather who was opposite, and the black hair wizard with twitching eyes, did not notice the atmosphere in the camp and these two words. Any association.
It is reasonable to say that everyone present at this time should get up, ask for instructions or actively speak, join in the discussion with teamwork, and finally the decision-making leader decides-why Loren would know, because Byrne's round table council is this model.
But now this deadly silent atmosphere, as well as the two parties of the giving tit for tat...obviously, there is no such thing as a "lively and active discussion".
Everyone here is nothing more than a common interest trend, or a choice without choice; Knight and the soldiers at the bottom may be willing to work because of Brandon’s generous speech and encouragement, but these People will not.
If Salika is still willing to cooperate with Brandon when necessary because of the "friendship of the past few years," then Dresis is really because he did not have a choice. He may have more resentment towards Brandon than his good feelings.
The cold field lasted for one minute, Brandon seemed to have not noticed anything, and turned towards the night watchman beckons with the hand behind him: "Come on, Edward, please explain the current situation first. Let’s share any latest information by the way!"
"As you bid."
Slightly nodded night watchman Edward walked out from behind the prince, and glanced at the black hair wizard inadvertently. , He unfolded a map on the long table in the center.
"First of all, the Eboden line of defense has been breached."
Withdrawing the thorn sword from his waist, Edward pointed the tip of the sword at the upper reaches of the Jewel River Erd: "From just passed back According to the intelligence, although the enemy has broken through the line of defense, it has not completely defeated the Legion guarding the border."
"Along the line of the Jewel River, take the Eilemand of the Grand Duke of Eileman Ulrich Wiertz Legion is pursuing the Azorean elves forward going south; and behind the front, with the assistance of the giant dragon, Severin Desalion, the Minister of Military Affairs of the Empire, is doing everything possible to assemble the scattered forces to reorganize Legion. "
"In the known intelligence, only the 30,000 pioneers of the Azores elves threatened Imperial Capital Golovin, going south along the Jewel River; the rest of the army was with Elman Entangled by Legion’s light infantry, or is firmly blocked by the defense line organized by Lord Severin Desalion in the territory of Eboden, it is not a threat to us in a short time."
"But...just... For a short time." Edward raised his eyes slowly: "From the intelligence of the port of Eboden, a brand-new Azores fleet has passed through the sea of fog and landed in Eboden."
"Strength, unknown. ;Equipment, unknown; whether there will be follow-up reinforcements...unknown." The night watchman coldly said:
"All we know is that they are coming, and they are still arriving at our port and the coast from a distance— -Eboden, Fogmoon Court, soon there will be a large number of Azorean elves landing to add more troops and resources to their army."
"Once the enemy increases troops, the Eboden line of defense Severin Desalion’s 30,000 Legion must retreat, enter the hinterland of East Sacrament, or go south to join the Grand Duke Elman;"
"Waiting for them It will be the 30,000 elite pioneers of Azores, as well as the tens of thousands of elves that have arrived from the rear. Their only choice is to break through and enter the defense circle of Imperial Capital Golovin as soon as possible."
"If this is the case, then we who are still in Duanjieshan will be the last mobile force in the empire that can move freely and is capable; our deployment and plans will be directly related to Imperial Capital. Can Lovin still get outside reinforcements?"
"Let them come, then."
Drecis's face was cold, his eyes narrowed into a gap:" We will regret this group of long ears-Xiong Yingwang's head is only the first, and sooner or later there will be thousands of heads, which will become sacrifices to the soldiers of the dead empire."
"Province Save it, you'd better save your life and be realistic." Sarika said unceremoniously on the opposite side, a pair of boots leaning on the table, the soles facing the front door of Dresis:
"It was Loren who killed Xiong Yingwang, and it was Loren who defeated the monsters invading. Without him, let alone the Fortress of Broken World, it would be hard to say whether we could sit here. "
"You—? ! "
"What am I? ! "The Machete Grand Duke glared back, her fierce gaze resembling a she-wolf on the prairie: "Tell you I'm so impolite--don't think we are comrades in a battle. I am the Grand Duke of the Boyi, and the Boyi is the same. This temper, don't think of us as Lothar's good babies! "
"Speaking of Lothar..."
Before the two parties started fighting, Edward immediately took the opportunity to change the topic: "Led by Grand Duke Ruben Fried Lothar Legion officially started war with the elves on the Deep Limburg front. "
"But the battle was very unfavorable for Lotaire-the Azores drove a large number of ogre into Lothar territory, causing a lot of damage and casualties, Lothar had to put more precious Troops were put into rear-line operations to maintain order and stability. "
"Because the territory is relatively closed and the borders of the territory are broken, Duke Lotaire has been fighting alone so far. "Edward said solemnly:
"If we can't rescue Imperial Capital Golovin from the Azores, open up the Western Sacrament-Eboden-Lotaire line of communication, and reinforce Ruben Feuer Grand Duke Lead, then Lotaire's fall is almost inevitable! "
The voice fell, and the atmosphere at the long table finally turned from dead to a bit heavy.
Brandon smiled casually, seeming to be very satisfied with everyone's tension-after all Only by making everyone nervous, can he, the unpopular crown prince and the next generation of emperor, speak.
Only in the most critical moment, people will want to get a" "The emperor of the dragon rider" can even care if he is a ridiculous tyrant for this.
"Okay, enough bad news has been said. "
Salika Jonah hugged her shoulders and glanced sideways at the night watchman: "Say some good news, don't make trouble as if the empire is about to end." "
The opposite Dresis was coldly snorted, but he didn't quarrel with the Machete Grand Duke anymore.
"The biggest good news right now is that Imperial Capital has not fallen yet. "
Edward's expression is still indifferent, faintly opened the mouth and said: "The army of 80,000 Byrne has passed through the Alleman Mountains and entered the hinterland of the Imperial Capital in Western Sacrament. "
"Judging from the sequence and all the obstacles that may be encountered, it is sufficient to station at the Imperial Capital Golovin before the elves officially attack and complete the defensive deployment of the Imperial Capital;"
"All this is thanks to Charlotte Torino's decisive decision. "
The voice fell, and the night watchman bowed slightly towards the opposite Scarlet Blood Castle female count, and the gaze of the presence turned to the direction he was facing.
"Don’t be overpraised like this. It was just an obligation that a courtier who was loyal to the empire should fulfill. "
Facing everyone's gaze, Charlotte, who is neither humble nor arrogant, raised her proud chest, and faint smile turned her gaze to Brandon who was sitting up ahead:
"To Dong The brave and decisive trust of His Royal Highness Prince Sackland is the key factor that enables Byrne to make up his mind. Byrne will never violate his oath, let alone betray his friends. "
Trust my bravery and decisiveness... Brandon, who was able to laugh just now, had a slightly trembling eye that didn't even dare to look directly at Charlotte's straight gaze.
What, if I dare to hesitate for a little while, you will definitely cut off my logistic supply and go straight north, right, right? Right?!
From From the first meeting, Charlotte seemed to have become a heavenly ascension of Bran. Every time I met with her, she would leave some "very unpleasant" memories.
"80,000 Byrne Legion, plus the subsequent reinforcements-intelligence from the south, Byrne is still continuing to recruit new recruits, and the armies of Arles and Allermans are also mobilizing one after another-enough to attack the siege. The Azores of Imperial Capital formed an absolute advantage. "
"Of course, plus 20,000 hussars from Poi, who have now crossed the border of East Sackland, advancing towards the Jewel River. "
"Not only is the enemy's siege of Imperial Capital lifted, we can even provide reinforcements to Lothar to ease the pressure from the western battlefield; then use the abundant resources of Imperial Capital Golovin, Regain a firm foothold, establish the Eboden line of defense, and gradually push the battlefield to the north. "
"Once the enemy's offensive momentum is contained, the war will return to the situation planned by His Majesty Connold before his death-in Eboden, the power of the entire empire will be assembled. Stand in the final battle with the Azores! "
At this point, Edward’s expression has finally changed a little, and his tone of voice has become more rough: "This will not be a war that can be ended in one or two battles, but it can be in a very short period of time. Winners and losers are determined within time due to changes in strength. "
"If we win, the Azores will not be able to retreat, and we will be completely wiped out in the territory of Eboden; the next empire can take ten, twenty or even thirty years. , The re-organization of the ocean-going fleet-at that time, it is up to us to decide whether to fight or to make peace. "
"If you lose... then there is nothing to talk about. "
Loren slightly nodded.
Yes, if that happens, the empire that has lost all its elite forces will not be a rebellion. I am afraid that even the foundation of power to maintain the rule will be depleted. When it’s done, what else can we talk about?
At the long table where the atmosphere is somewhat depressed, everyone has different expressions.
Salika Jonah, who is holding her shoulders, has a cold face. Like completely didn’t expect, the empire still has the power to fight--even if two emperors died, she almost thought the empire was going to be over.
If it weren’t for this, the dignified lord of Boi I won’t be so rude to Dresis.
Dresses, who was silent with a closed mouth, lowered his head, and kept glancing at the silhouette of the black hair wizard beside him from the corner of his eyes; En's strength and financial resources are far beyond his imagination.
Even in the "dark duke age", 100,000 Legion is already the limit of Byrne's thirteen collars, and even the empire has to bear considerable expenses. Maintaining such a huge force.
But from the news just announced by the night watchman Edward, it seems that this is not the limit of their strength-obviously they have all been dispatched, and Duchy can actually search for financial resources and manpower effectively. And material resources, continue to recruit the army.
It has only been a few years since Loren inherited the title. Has Byrne's strength swelled to such a terrifying level?
Based on the current situation Looking at it, I really don’t know if it’s good or bad.
"To sum up...that's all the intelligence we can gather so far. "Edward silently retracted the stabbing sword from his waist, and looked up towards the dukes: "If you have any questions, please..."
"Don't talk nonsense. "
The Grand Duke of Scimitar raised her eyes and interrupted unceremoniously: "Say, what are we going to do?" "
"Since you can talk here, it means that there is already a detailed deployment, right, um...little spy? "
Edward’s expression is as stiff as ever, standing straight and looking towards everyone present:
"Before starting a decisive battle with the enemy, we must gather as much power as possible. At the same time weaken the enemy's power, so... Grand Duke Salika Jonah of Boye. "
The indifferent pupils turned to the provocative-looking female grandfather with a scimitar: "Please immediately lead your elite, go to the western border of East Sacrament to receive 20,000 Boyi Hussars, and then rush to the Gem River at full speed border. "
"At the moment, Byrne Legion should have been stationed in Imperial Capital. Your task is to harass the elf back line as much as possible, buy time for Elman Legion and Severin Desalion, and try at the same time In order to establish contact with them, cooperate with the Byrne Legion in Imperial Capital on the periphery to defend Imperial Capital. "
Salika didn’t speak, she just raised her head with her shoulders to show that she knew it.
"Then the deputy commander of the fortress of Broken Boundary Mountain, Ernst Drey Lord Sith. "
Slightly helpless Edward turned his gaze to Emperor Connaught’s most trusted adjutant during his lifetime: "The rebellion in East Sackland has been basically put down, but the turmoil still exists. We need an experience. The rich commander sits in the rear, ensuring stability in East Sacrament as the army goes south. "
"Therefore, we hand over East Sackland to you-including complete administrative power and military power. You can recruit any army or warehouse with the authorization of the Prince of East Sackland. Ensure that the stability of East Sacrament will not be affected. "
The expressionless Dresis nodded did not respond.
He knew his identity as a cron of the Emperor Connold, impossible was completely trusted by Brandon and was arranged The work of maintaining the situation in the rear was basically in his expectation.
"Finally..." Edward slowly lifts the head, looking towards the black hair wizard and the count of the Scarlet Castle girl on the opposite side:
" is part of Byrne. "
