Soderlor, who returned to Central Camp, resumed his regular meeting. He has four staff members, all of whom have been promoted from the grassroots in these years of fighting. The average age is only 25. Although not as stable as other noble stewards, it has a sharp edge and has the most accurate understanding of the current composition of the army.

"The results of the Falcon reconnaissance this morning have passed through the French formation, and the enemy's movements these days have been analyzed. What do you think?"

The barracks at the meeting had a large sand table. As Soderlor spoke, the staff looked down and looked at the map copied by the French array in their hands. This room had many unique decorations. Magic clock, magic communication array, image photocopy array, etc. are all specially developed for war.

Helsinki's Tower and Pashaar's Tower can even have "video communication", and it's not difficult for Edith to come up with such a circle. This is the benefit of Spar's unified specifications. When the nobles were still relying on pigeons, Rody's army system had already achieved "instant communication" of most information.

"Commander, the pace of the enemy's assembly does not seem to be fast ... they seem to have not moved much in the past three days."

The staff who compared the map was a little puzzled: "The lords belonging to the five forces have not yet assembled. It seems that it is due to logistics problems?"

"It's not all, mainly because there is too much rain and the road is difficult." Someone next pointed out the key: "You see the dividing line in the middle of the river ... The water level of the Bordeaux River has increased a lot compared to before. The army behind the river has never passed, Obviously heavy rainfall seems to have flooded the bridge across the river, making it difficult to move forward too fast, and it is not unusual to have such a speed. "

At this time, the staff had to feel the importance of "road". Because Arcane Warrior has exploded to build more than 40 units in these months, the speed of repairing roads is now faster than that of normal army. At the same time, the roads built by this kind of puppets are not only a little higher than the ground, but also ensure that the road surface remains hard after being poured by rain. This alone makes the enemy's army incomparable.

After listening to their discussions for a long time, Soderlor asked the question: "When do you think it is appropriate to attack?"

This is actually a question that everyone has been circling. Several young staff members continued to draw lines on the map with their hands, but no one dared to speak first because their army was so different, who had not really practiced it on the battlefield. I dare not say what I can do.

"Commander ... I don't think it will be a problem when we fight."

Soderlor laughed, and he pointed to the talking guy: "Morak, the enemy is not a farmer. They may have magicians or dragons. You are so confident that something will go wrong."

Morak scratched his head and whispered: "But these troops on the map obviously don't know anything about us. I guess they still think we are thousands of miles away, and the primary goal is the walls of the temple. In this case, I don't know what expression they will have when they see Everta's army ... "

His words made other staff laugh. Only within this system can they understand that Morak's words are not a joke. And Soderol cannot naturally make this group of people over-confident: "It seems that the problem is less for you. Listen, everyone: From now on, start to carefully deduce and check the battle plan according to the timeline. I do not want to give What flaws were picked out in the Prime Minister's plan. Can be done within three hours, can you do it? "

Everyone's eyes were fixed for a moment, and some even stood up excitedly because Soderlor's words meant that he decided to apply for war.

Roddy's plan is strategic, but he gives Soderroll command of the battle, which means that he starts to control and apply for the war. If the time is deemed appropriate, he will Submitted in writing, Roddy immediately judged and approved. If it passes, then it means that Everta will then enter the second stage of war preparations in full ...

"Reporting Commander! Guaranteed!"

All the staff members stood up and almost shouted this sentence. Soderol slowly nodded and said firmly, "We are the blade of Everta, and our existence is for this moment. Don't forget that the vow when joining the army is the honor of Everta!"

"For the glory of Everta!"

May 8.

"What is this temple doing? Are they going to give up resistance?"

Looking at the information in front of him, Count Harrison was extremely puzzled because his territory bordered the temple, so there was an eyeliner in the "temple" city to pass information, and the activities of "Rose Cross" and even Evta were all ranked Can get news in a moment. But the content that came in recent days made him really unable to understand what the other party wanted to do.

It stands to reason that if you are a "temple" party, it is estimated that you will start to clear the wild walls after the temperature has turned around at the beginning of the year. But the news of the other party so far seems to be that only the Dongchengmen and Nanchengmen are closed. The gates in the other directions should still be open, so there are caravans coming in and out of Everta.

Although some troops were assembled in the city, they were all Templar knights and Templar warriors of the "Rose Cross", with a total number of less than two thousand. Obviously, the "Viper Cross" last year hit a lot of damage to its core. The two thousand people used to defend the city were basically useless to Count Harrison ...

What can the two thousand to do? If the assembly is completed here, the total number of logistics soldiers must exceed 40,000. Up to now, no army has come to support Everta. Do they really think they can keep it?

"Information on the northern walls, what does this say? Who will explain?"

Count Harrison reached out and pulled out a piece of paper. A housekeeper next to him hurried over and took a few glances. It was found that the message on the top was "A large unknown object appeared in the northern part of the temple at night, but did not enter the city. Specific whereabouts. "

The news saw him confused, and several other housekeepers looked at each other, and finally had to start looking for the source of information before finally being surprised: "Master Earl ... This is the news from the Everta intelligence agency!"

"What? Can they give me more information?"

Count Harrison was a little embarrassed. He had heard of the "intelligence agency", but he didn't expect that there was anyone in it.

In fact, this also illustrates the chaos of the current forces of Charles II ... The lords have their own affairs and there is not much connection between them. Therefore, as the commander-in-chief, Harrison has not even straightened out the intelligence systems everywhere, or his understanding of "intelligence" is to have a general understanding of the enemy's dynamics. As for "spy" or something, raise food Enough headache. Where can I work on this?

"Master, this is the message sent by Her Majesty Charles II to have his news, we are more flexible in dealing with it ..."

"That's what it says, but what does he report? What do you guys understand?"

Harrison's words made all the housekeepers look at each other, and then they all shook their heads: "Master, what siege equipment might Everta have made?"

"They attacked a fart! Now they are all surrounded here, waiting to be attacked!"

Harrison thought that these people were not good at fighting. These words were basically chicken and duck. Then he skipped this information and continued to pick up another one: "Task Bank agreed to borrow money. This Groups of guys who can't spit out bones, the interest is really high ... "

Count Harrison has never borrowed money to fight before. But in order not to be hungry after the army is assembled, he chose to raise gold coins in the same way as Roddy, except that Harrison borrowed in the name of the lord, and the lender was the "Task of the Karen Kingdom" Business ".

Prior to Parrish's spread of the kingdom through a chain, the "Tasker" was regarded as the most famous firm in the eastern part of the kingdom. However, no matter how large it is, it can no longer compare to a large country like Rahman. This can be seen from the amount borrowed by Earl Harrison ... he only lent 200,000 gold coins at a 50% interest per year, and the agreement signed was to be paid off next year.

Thanks to his name of "Captain of the Western Expeditionary Force", otherwise the Tusk office would not have lent so much money. On the other hand, the Tusk office had a bad day because of the existence of Parr's leading business. One day, so suppressing Everta was a common goal. However, merchants are unwilling to trade at a loss, and 50% annual interest is enough to prove this.

After all, there was a famine in the eastern part of the kingdom last year. This year, food is not abundant and prices are much higher than before. Without this money, Count Harrison would have no way to run the army.

"My preparations are almost the same, but why have these guys been on the road for so long? I can't arrive at the scheduled meeting time like this. How can I ..."

After reading the progress of the lords on the road, Harrison kept pacing in front of the map and complained. In fact, he also knows the reason: after the summer, the rainfall increased, especially in the central and southern parts of the kingdom ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ Blogs appeared near Bordeaux and the watershed. The first batch of troops advanced from the middle to the north, and it was not surprising that the road was blocked.

However, this completely disrupted the original plan, and caused the supposedly orderly army front to drag down. He planned to start tentative trials in mid-May, and launched the first wave of attacks in the latter part of the year. But now it seems that whether this group of people can reach the reservation place on May 20 will be questioned.

"Master, that reply to Her Majesty ..."

"Just saying that the preparations are all going well, and that the food has been raised, it is enough to support the Temple!" Harrison waved his hand. "Isn't" Carron Times "always saying that the food production of Everta is amazing? Waiting for the army to crush it, I'll take a good look at how true or false these words are! "

"But ... Master, we are currently not raising food smoothly. We have not even received two-thirds of the estimated amount ..."

"Crap! I certainly know, but can you tell your Majesty?"

Count Harrison's eyes narrowed: "What is the" Weekly Weekly "writing every day now? You don't look at the wind direction and the per kilogram of things are spreading widely. If you say that you don't have enough food, aren't you scolding? "
