Vol 5 Chapter 18: Restless voice (below)

"No, now is not the time to rescue Qianzhang City!"
In the barracks of the Chinese military barracks of the Baine Barracks, the heir of the Jonah family who visited suddenly, the next Grand Duke Salika Jonah pounded the map table with a scabbard and looked fiercely at the opposite Seth Braha. count:
"The Centaur Barbarians who are besieging Qiancheng City now have the pioneers of the two tribes of Red Flame and Bailang, and there are forty thousand people; there are no more than 20,000 people combined with the silver armor and the reinforcements of the Duke Byrne in my hand alone- -What is the odds? "
"You also said that forty thousand and a half horses are besieging the Thousand Account City, and there are only five thousand defenders in the city!" Earl Seth Blaha almost dared to refute her:
"Let's drag on and wait until the Qianzhang City falls, and Boe is over!"
"Because of this, we should even tear open the blockades of the barbarians and enter the large Boye collar to gather forces to counterattack them!" Salika's voice was sharp, and the petite man wrapped in his tight leather armor resembled a sturdy wolf, with his teeth clenched Shouted:
"Even if Poe is over, that is a good thing for your Varna family!"
"You ... you mad woman, why are you so unreasonable ?!"
"You should be careful when you know I am a lunatic, Uncle Sette." Salika narrowed her eyes and raised the corner of her mouth; her tongue was slightly exposed, and the handle of her right hand suddenly extended to Earl Braha's neck:
"The old thing in Varna can still live for a few years? If I tell him to kill you, I will marry his grandson ... Guess he can't agree?"
"You, I ... I ..." Earl Braha looked pale, and looked at the smirk in front of him in disbelief, which made him creepy.
Around the map table, from Loren to all the Earl of Byrne, and even the little wizards and Lusien, they were staring at the two in the quarrel; their expressions were different, and their expressions were more than one.
Eckert and Earl Angut glanced at each other, and then turned their heads back together in a tacit understanding, letting the dark-haired wizard watching a flash of undetectable smile.
Hmmm ... If Charlotte can have Miss Selika Jonah's aura, Duke Byrne should have nothing to do with himself, and may even have reunified a long time ago.
Of course, the more likely result is that Byrne declares independence and then fights against the empire ... Although they have just met, the heir to the Duke of Poi gives Loren the impression that she can do this kind of thing absolutely.
Master Ashamai, who was sitting at the other end of the map table, was surprisingly silent. His expression, which was not panic-stricken, was obviously strange to similar scenes.
However, compared to Charlotte, Salika Jonah gave the dark-haired wizard the impression that it was closer to the morning star forest elf war dancer Liya; she was also keen on solving problems violently and had a pair of wolf eyes.
The only difference may be that Liya is a bit simpler.
Speaking of being from Eboden, I have never seen the female elf again; I heard that she is now the leader of the war dancer in Morning Star Forest. She often visits near the big tree wall. Should I write a letter occasionally? Letter to console?
Alas ... I almost forgot that the female elf was a genuine illiterate. Even if I wrote a letter, I might only be left by her in the bonfire. I was too busy and forgot to teach her to read ...
"Count Braha, and the distinguished Miss Salika Jonah, please do n’t forget where this is!"
While Loren was still cranky, Earl Eckert suddenly got up, and his high voice interrupted the two who were about to draw their swords:
"As friends, we will respect your opinions; but there is only one person who can decide how Byrne's sword is wielded, and that is the Duke of Bion-and our Duke, Lord Loren Turin, has made his decision!"
When the words fell, facing the two pairs of eyes turning at the same time, Loren nodded slightly, agreeing with Earl Eckert's statement:
"Tomorrow we will continue to march to the Qiancheng City to siege."
"But there are 40,000 Centaurs in the Siege City, and you only have 15,000!" Salika's eyes widened as if he wished to cut the black-haired wizard with a knife:
"It's just a little force, what do you use to win?"
Loren looked at her without changing his face, and his voice was unwavering: "Then if Baine's army can open the way for you to the Big Boyne, will there be hope to win?"
"Of course!" Salikar said for granted, and hummed the braid behind his head: "My grandfather and my cousins ​​control all the horseback people in the Da Boyi collar, each of those people All are samurai who can take the sword! "
"It's just because of the fiasco of Grand Duke Varna that they were unable to rally for a while-as long as I went to Da Boy to disperse the ride, in a blink of an eye there was a hundred thousand troops! By then ..."
"At that time, the Thousand Accounts City will be captured, and the whole Poi will be divided into two things. You will not be able to look at each other; and you and the Jonah family of 100,000 troops will be attacked by the Centaurs, and there will be no place to bury--"
Loren suddenly stood up and shouted her word by word: "And our next mission of the benefactor is not to rescue, but to resist the invasion of the centaur under the peak of the lookout and avenge your Boi!"
"You guy ..." Salika, who was blocked, gritted her teeth and looked at the dark-haired wizard in exasperation: "How dare you talk to me like that, but I ..."
"You are not the Grand Duke of Poe, and I am the Duke of Byrne." Salika was interrupted again with a cold face, Loren and her eyes looked at each other: "When I speak, you are not qualified to speak! "
"Especially when I was going to bet on the life of the Bayern, and on my own life to save your Boi from the Centaur's iron ride!"
Salika's eyes widened, and she was taken back instinctively by the black wizard.
"So ... you already have a plan?"
Master Azhama happened to come in and hit the round. The deceptive expression of "just right" made him feel full of justice even when he interjected: "Is it possible to announce to all of us here ? "
"Counting the hussars of a thousand people in Earl Braha, plus the 500 silver armor of Miss Salika, our army has a total of nearly 20,000 people-the ratio of infantry and cavalry is close to one to one, this is Our first advantage. "
Looking at it without showing any weakness, and still staring at his own Salika, Loren pretended to ignore it and continued to say in a deep voice: "If you are fighting in the Great Plains, the Centaur in the face of pure cavalry is certainly a disadvantage; but there are thousands of accounts Relying on the city walls, it will be completely different. "
"First of all, in order to guard against the counterattack of the defenders in the city, the enemy absolutely dare not withdraw and then attack us with all our strength; in other words, we do n’t have to face the 40,000 army at all, and the number of people who really want to fight should be around 20,000 to 30,000;
Secondly, when the enemy gathers troops to confront us, it is necessary to slow down the siege; to a certain extent ... our rescue goal is basically achieved;
In the end, rescuing the Thousand Accounts City does not mean immediately fighting against the Centaurs in the siege; unlike them, we have a large number of infantry and armour. We can fill trenches outside the city and build positions to confront them ... this is our advantage. "
After a pause, Loren sighed: "At the same time, Count Braha and Miss Salika can take the opportunity to go to their respective territories, gather enough troops as soon as possible, and then completely destroy the Centaur in a siege! "
"Boy's hussars and silver armoured cavalry are both important forces that can entrap enemies and confront them head-on ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The black-haired wizard slowly raises his head while looking at Salika and Seth:
"I need you to give me the command of the army and then lead the army to rescue within the agreed period-can it be done?"
Looking at Loren's calm gaze, Count Braha hesitated a bit and gritted his teeth: "Five days, within five days I will gather as many troops as possible in Little Boye's collar and come back!"
Loren nodded, then turned his gaze aside.
"clang--!"
The silver saber flashed past and was blocked by a short sword pierced behind him when he was about to touch Loren's neck.
Lucien parryed his sword coldly, staring at the heir of the Jonah family without showing any weakness.
"Want me to give Yinjia Xiaoqi to you? Can ..."
Salika's eyes were sharp, and he glared provocatively at Loren:
"But you have to beat me first!"
