While talking, the general’s camp arrived.
He stopped his mind and walked in. The things they just discussed will not be put on the agenda until the war is over.
looked around, they were late, and the other noble lords were almost there.
This made the young baron more dissatisfied. Obviously he was the last wave of notifications. This was simply when he, the supreme commander, was transparent and sat in his seat with angrily and said nothing.
"You are summoned here because a very unusual message came from the front sentinel."
It was General Christopher who made Patlem full of opinions. This civilian general from a farmer's family can only be described in ordinary appearance.
His face is not brilliant, his complexion is dark, he is not tall or short, and even the muscles on his body are not obvious. Many irregular knights are more developed than him. People who don’t know his identity thought it was a ground plane. The farmer who eats, no one will associate him with the champion knight known as the human monster.
"What is the unusual news? Is it because the other party is out of the city and is ready to fight with us head-on?"
"On the contrary, the opponent's outpost was completely withdrawn, and there is no one left. Our outpost has already touched Bastille."
"This is normal, our army is all over, what use are their hundreds of outposts? It's not enough for us to charge, so the turtle will naturally retract."
"If only this is the case, I won't bother you to take a trip. Just now, a sentry reported that the Bastille is now an empty city."
"what?"
"Empty city?"
"Can you make a mistake?"
"You can't make a mistake, there have been several groups of sentinels who have come back, and they have brought back the same information. Now they are preparing for manpower to go in and investigate!"
"The other party abandoned the city and ran away?"
"Coward! Shameless cowards! How can they abandon the city and escape? What about our military exploits?"
"Chasing, you must chase, even if you are chasing into the mountains, these cowards must be pulled out, all men will be killed, and all women, children and children will become slaves."
"Idiot, you are not afraid that this is a trap set up by others, just waiting for you to hit it inside?"
"Trap? Are you kidding me? How big is a trap to hold so many of us? Even if there is a trap, it will be broken."
Suddenly, the entire general camp was quarreled into a pot of gruel. Obviously, the reaction of the other party was completely beyond their expectations. According to their inertial logic, after the mountain people occupy the Bastille, they should stick to the city. The odds of winning are the greatest.
It's better now, their army has assembled, and they are almost on the way. They discovered that their enemies are gone. This feels like throwing a heavy punch, but hitting a ball of cotton, which makes people vomit blood uncomfortably.
"Although this is unexpected, it is reasonable. The other party is a mess of sand after all. Seeing that our army is about to arrive, I am afraid that I will not be able to defend it. Of course, I will run away." Patlem sneered.
"That’s good, but it saves us trouble. As long as the Bastille is occupied, our task is half completed. Those idiots think that if you give up the Bastille, will we let him go? Can they leave the Bastille? Run, it's impossible to lose even Mount Andis, right?"
"If you want military exploits and loot, you can go straight to the other side's lair. That is what Bolton led a group of greedy people to accomplish. Couldn't we have so many nobles and nobles? At that time, let's just do it. The big one will lift the entire Andes mountain range to the sky, drive out all the mountain people and become our slaves."
"Well said, even if they can run, they will not be able to run out of the Andes Mountains. Let's take a lot of trouble and take more mountain trails."
"What are you waiting for? Get on the road and try to spend the night in the Bastille tonight. The other side of the province regrets it and ran back again. Do you really want to fight a tough battle? CD is an old veteran? During the war, how high was the death rate of the siege party? They were all the soldiers brought out by themselves, and if you lose one less, you lose one."
"General, what are you waiting for? Give an order!"
Since Christopher introduced the situation, he has been frowning and watching the quarrel of the people. He originally wanted to find something useful from their quarrel. The final conclusion is that they are all vulgar and incompetent, including the second in the Faerun family. Heir Pat Lem.
What they think of at the first time is their own interests, none of them are from the perspective of the other side, analyzing the other side’s intentions with tactical eyes, whether there is any deep meaning in doing so, does the other side really think that the Andis mountain people are a group of incompetent pigs , Waiting for them to be slaughtered?
They all forgot that the Andis Mountain People was the most orthodox one of the Andis Empire back then, and what they lack most is all kinds of geniuses, normal or crazy.
Even under their continuous suppression for hundreds of years, they still stand tall in the Andes Mountains. On the contrary, they are more and more common in the Byron League.
"Your Excellency General, I think we should treat it with caution." A relatively strange voice interrupted Christopher's thoughts.
"Who are you? This is the Supreme Military Conference. Who gives you the qualification to speak?"
"How did an unqualified knight get in? Where is the guard? Did the guard's eyes be pecked by the eagle?"
It was Conrad, who was dressed as a guard next to Patlem, who spoke. It doesn't matter what he said, he caused trouble for himself first.
In this rigorously hierarchical world, his unfounded origin is his most Achilles heel. Although he has been around Patlem for some time, this possessive young baron fears that he will leave after he becomes famous. Just let him act as a guard and advisor by his side, and didn't even give him the title of a knight.
As long as they stand next to Patlem, others will give a polite three-pointer, but in this kind of formal occasion, some people take the opportunity to make trouble, it is normal, because there are many Philip's staunch supporters.
But Conrad speaks, obviously he has his own calculations. He doesn't care about other people's reactions at all, as long as one is interested.
As long as it can arouse his interest, this charge is nothing at all. Of course, this person is the most important person in this camp-General Christopher.
"Oh?" General Christopher looked at Conrad with interest, "Tell me, what different opinions do you have? If it satisfies me, I won't pursue it. If it is the same useless words, the most disturbing What do you think of the two crimes of military meetings and private camps?"
"It's all up to the generals."
"The general is wise, so it's a good deal."
"Let us see what is so extraordinary about the new staff officer next to Lord Baron."
Even if he was prepared, Conrad saw a little sweat on his forehead. The champion knight deserves to be a champion knight. A look can bring such a lot of pressure to people. The opponent's eyes seem to have a magical ability that penetrates the heart, as if all his tricks have been defeated. The other party saw through and had nowhere to hide.
This person is really the same person as the dirty man in his intelligence. At this moment, Conrad began to play drums in his heart.
But the arrow is on the string, and he has to send it. He seems to be able to detect the dissatisfied gaze of Patlem next to him, and constricts his mind.
"Lord Bolton’s strength is not ignorant to everyone. Even if it’s the loss of an underestimation of the enemy, it’s not that simple to win a castle with thousands of troops. Let’s substitute it and replace it with everyone. The position of the Andis mountain people, how many troops will you give you, can you take the Bastille down?"
"How can we make such an analogy? The two are completely incomparable. We are not those savage and lowly mountain people..."
"Fork him out." General Christopher waved his hand, and the two tall guards rushed forward like wolves, and kicked out the little nobleman who was screaming red with anger.
"You can't do this. I am a hereditary baron who is personally canonized by the Lord Duke, and I am eligible to participate in military meetings of the military commander. Free speech is my right. This is granted to me by the Lord Duke and protected by the Union law. It is sacred. Infringement of power, you are abusing your private power. I want to impeach you in front of the Lord Duke."
In the process of going out, the little nobleman was still clamoring, but no one paid any attention. It was a fool's talent to offend a hereditary baron to a hereditary earl with a powerful hand.
"It's okay to have different political opinions, but don't mess around~EbookFREE.me~ Otherwise, don't blame me for not saving him face."
Christopher looked around, fierce eyes in his eyes, "Especially political attacks, let alone not allowed. Okay, you can go on."
"From the perspective of the well-trained sentinels of the other party, the other party is definitely not a group of unorganized and undisciplined guerrillas. The other party's abandonment of the Bastille may be afraid of our military might, or it may be out of tactical considerations. If it is the latter. , We have to guard against it. If we go further, we can enter the mountainous area with large undulations. Maybe the other party wants to hit us in an ambush.
Conrad analyzed layer by layer.
"Why is there so much insight! I turned around and didn't say anything substantive."
Conrad’s way of playing is too high-profile, and the things thrown out obviously don’t match this high-profile, which naturally arouses dissatisfaction. It is just a lesson from the past. This verbal attack is not intense.
"Even the witches who are proficient in divination and astrology from the Secret Society of Witches are here in person, and they dare not say that they are against the first opportunity. This is just the praise of the novels and classics." Conrad posited.
"If you sum up the life of those generals who are always victorious, being cautious will be the word that runs through their lives, and those generals who like to play tricks are easy to win glorious victories like the past and the present, but most of them don’t live long, and they end up in their lives. It’s always safe to be careful."
"Be careful not to make a big mistake. With this sentence, you will be spared your guilt today!" Christopher's eyes flashed with a deep meaning, "Anything, you can't repeat it, I hope you will appear on this occasion next time. At the time, I already had a matching identity, otherwise, I wouldn’t be as good as this time."
"Thank the general for his mercy, the original truth bless you." Conrad bowed and thanked.
