Lord of War

William Yale's IQ is very high. Although he is only ranked tenth among the ten generals in later generations, his military style is extremely unpredictable, and the most terrifying thing is that he almost never makes mistakes. Any flaws that might be exploited by others are completely eliminated in William, and the beheading tactics against him are absolutely impossible, because he never gives the enemy such an opportunity, even food, drinking water, etc., he will pass through Double-check with extreme caution before eating.

However, he is a person with a very low emotional intelligence.

When he was in the White Wing Mercenary Corps, of course he could see that the people around him were dissatisfied with him, but he didn't know why. He thinks that his command ability is not inferior to those so-called generals, and this action also proves that he is correct, but he just doesn't understand why so many people are dissatisfied with the opinions he put forward. , even angry.

William actually felt aggrieved.

He didn't care about Xiao En's promise to him, because he was very confident in himself, as long as he wanted, he could get the command of an army anywhere. In particular, he is very clear about Sean's current situation. The White Wing Mercenary Corps has discovered Cecilia's existence, so they will definitely come here to make trouble. He is actually not very optimistic about Sean's development potential.

But what he couldn't refuse was Sean's "I need you".

This was the first time he felt needed. After staying in the White Wing Mercenary Corps for so long, he may not be able to tell the difference, but William can actually tell whether a person's attitude is real or fake—or, in other words, he Very sensitive. That's why when Sean said that sentence, he really felt something, and bowed his head in silence.

In this regard, he and Alfred are actually completely opposite.

The same sentence, but Alfred took it as a reason to convince himself. Because he suffered a lot from Sir Fregan, he knew very well that only nobles can deal with nobles. Although he hated nobles, he still had to admit this, so when Sean gave him a Alfred will not join Sean's team until he has a reason.

Of course, Cecilia also played a certain role.

"The army outside is called Steel Wing." Sean took William's bow as a kind of acquiescence, and happily introduced him, "This is Annuo, the first commander of Steel Wing. We deal with each other often. The ones who just left are Cecilia and Alfred. The current commander of Iron Wings is Cecilia, but you have joined now, so the official command will be handed over to you, Annuo, I will listen to his command in the future."

"Yes, Chief You." An Nuo responded with a smirk, then walked to William's side, and patted William's back very boldly, "Don't worry! You don't have to be so sad, Chief You won't eat It’s yours.” After finishing speaking, he took out a small piece of dried meat from his body, tore off half and handed it to William, and threw the other half into his own to chew.

"Haha, this is a custom of the northern barbarians..."

"I know, it means that they accept me as an outsider." William interrupted Sean's words, and then reached out to take the piece of dried meat, not knowing how to react. In fact, he was still a little tangled in his heart, but it was more of a kind of expectation. He found that he did not reject Xiao En's recruitment, and it could even be said that he was faintly excited. People need to be accepted.

William looked at the dried meat in his hand,

He raised his head and glanced at Sean and An Nuo. One of the latter had a gentle smile, while the other smiled heartlessly, and kept letting himself eat dried meat. After hesitating for a while, William finally put the piece of meat in his mouth and chewed it slowly. The dried meat had no taste, not even rubbed with salt. It was real "dried meat." But William still felt that...

It's delicious.

Sean's words are still going on, but they are no longer about "Steel Wings", and have even begun to involve some of the next action plans. During this process, William did not open his mouth to speak, but listened very carefully, because he actually did not have much say in these matters, because what he knew and was good at was actually fighting. As for Sean's future development William didn't know anything about strategy and so on.

"So, you are going to take people directly into the territory of Dabion Kingdom?" William raised his brows.

"Of course, it must be entered in batches." Sean thought for a while, and then replied, "But the number of people is indeed slightly larger, probably dozens of times."

"You are no different from those idiots killed by you." When it comes to military issues, William's noble and glamorous temperament immediately appeared. Barbarians appear, do you really think those nobles are brainless?... I bet you, as long as the number exceeds six times, that noble will definitely send troops to investigate, and then you are ready to fight them."

"Huh?" Sean was a little puzzled, "Isn't it the same for infiltration and infiltration? I watch TV..." Sean almost blurted out the word "television", but he quickly changed his words: "...books, Doesn’t it all say that infiltration and sneaking is to disperse the number of people, and then sneak around the border directly...”

"Is your brain full of grass?" William squinted at Sean, "Infiltration and infiltration of espionage activities is really not a problem, but it is also a strictly controlled number of people. ... You bring these thousands of People want to infiltrate all into a territory?... Do you know how many garrisons there are in a normal viscounty territory?"

"I really don't know." Sean froze for a moment.

According to the situation in the game, a player's viscounty territory usually has tens of thousands of active people. Counting the garrisons in the territory, there are generally at least 20,000 to 30,000 people who can form combat power. And this is still relatively weak in the game. Like the family he followed at the beginning, it was just a barony and already had more than 50,000 combatants, not including the garrison.

"To be able to gather a private army of 5,000 people is considered very powerful." William sighed, and he suddenly felt that he had eaten that piece of dried meat too fast, "Only those who can really form combat effectiveness The barbarians of the North, plus the more than a thousand soldiers of the White Wing Mercenary Corps you have recruited, your military strength is already comparable to that of a viscount... Do you think that if you let so many people infiltrate into the same territory, something will happen? What's up?"

"Uh..." Sean understood now, "War?"

"War?" William let out a "hehe" laugh, "As long as you win the first war, then you will face the pursuit of the Darbion Kingdom Army. Do you think that with the strength of the steel wings And the training situation, as well as those recruited ambushes, can they really stop the pursuit of the Kingdom Army?...Even if you rely on the Angloda Mountains to restrain the army of the Kingdom of Dabion, why do you think that Valkyrie Will not send troops to attack you?"

"Because she and the Kingdom of Dabion are at odds with each other, and she has always wanted to find a chance to declare war on the Kingdom of Dabion."

"Then why don't you and the Royal Army chasing you be wiped out, and then just give you an excuse?" William asked back, "After she can completely wipe out you, on the grounds that you are spying on the military situation of the Principality of Ryan, Declare war directly on the Kingdom of Dabion, why do you need to worry about other things?"

When William said this, Sean was suddenly speechless, and he found that he really seemed to think things too simply. Because he always thinks about problems from the perspective of players, but rarely thinks from the perspective of other people. At this time, after William reminded him, Xiao En immediately felt that if he really dared to If you do this, then the thundering Valkyrie will definitely level him directly, and then march into the Kingdom of Darbion.

"So, what should I do?"

"I don't know." William said bluntly, "You ask me how to fight, I know. If you ask me how to own territory, I will only tell you to fight. With these troops in your hand, plus It only takes half a year of training to be under my command, and I dare not say for an earldom, but a viscounty is absolutely fine, even if it is a powerful viscount's territory, I can take it down for you."

Hearing William's first words, Sean knew that he had asked the wrong person.

He suddenly realized that it was really troublesome not to have an aide around him who could make suggestions. Although Cecilia is currently performing very comprehensively, whether she is a staff member, a commander, or a diplomat, she is actually competent, but she is not particularly good at these aspects. After all, her main job is a magician. It is her primary problem, so it is naturally impossible to be distracted from these things. If she is allowed to be distracted from these things, she can definitely handle them well with her wisdom and will, but it would be a waste of her magical talent.

In terms of the identities of magician, staff, and commander, Sean still tends to be the first one.

"It would be great if I could find an aide to help me plan these government affairs." Sean sighed helplessly.

He really didn't understand people like the staff. Because back in the game, his family had a very powerful CEO, and he took care of the whole family very well by himself, so when many other families needed the assistance of their staff, his family was totally helpless. No, this virtually saves a lot of expenses.

But seeing Xiao En's distressed appearance, William thought for a while, but suddenly said: "I know a... well, an elf, I met in the trading capital before. I'm not sure if he is qualified. Staff is a profession, but he is indeed a very intelligent person. And... he is also very versatile, especially good at... counterfeiting."

It must not be easy for someone who can make William say that he is wise, right? Sean was immediately interested in the elf William mentioned: "Where is he?"

"The Principality of Ryan." William said, "Danaville."

"It will take nearly a month to reach Danaville from here." Sean frowned slightly, "There is no way to infiltrate into the Kingdom of Dabion, and naturally there is no way to infiltrate into the Principality of Ryan, so what should these people do? ?”

"What else can I do, stay here." William looked at Sean with an idiot look on his face, "You choose a small group of people to accompany you and enter the Principality of Ryan as a mercenary group, you will definitely not Suspicious. As for the rest of the people, they went to the border of the Kingdom of Darbion and rested there temporarily. Anyway, there are plenty of wood in the forest, so it is not difficult to set up a temporary camp, and it is also a good time to let them have a good time. Let's train..."

Having said that, William glanced at Annuo, the big guy who was still smiling, and said with some reluctance: "The password should also be changed. You don't want to shout out that dinner is served when you are fighting on the battlefield. Wait until the meal is served." Kind of order..."

"I think it's pretty good." An Nuo said in a low voice, he reached out and scratched the back of his head, and looked at Sean in a daze.

"This is indeed more convenient and easier for them to remember." Sean was actually quite embarrassed about such a password, but he remembered that Alfred, who could yell such a slogan so naturally and boldly, was actually the only one. He is a real hero, right?

Maybe, everyone on the battlefield will really regard him as the leader of the cannibals.

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now." William glanced at An Nuo, seeing his pitiful appearance, he was really embarrassed to force him to change, of course, it really didn't make him have a strong desire for reform, But tonight, when he saw these northern barbarians, his reaction could indeed be called quick, and it was no different from the general troops who had undergone long-term training. It was completely impossible to tell that they were just a group of northern barbarians who had only been trained for a few days.

After pondering for a while, William said in a more commander-in-chief manner: "In terms of training, it's actually not a big problem. There are still many veterans in your team, so it's fine to let them stay in charge of training, but Those soldiers of the White Wing Mercenary Corps who just surrendered, you need to take some away, and the rest should be scattered as much as possible... You are right not to let them wear armor, at least if there is a mutiny, you can quickly suppress them. No pressure... But they are still very useful, although their military literacy is a bit poor, but they are also from the regular army after all."

What William said was completely considered from Sean's point of view. However, from William's words, Sean actually heard a meaning, that is, William was also worried about those soldiers and was afraid that he would kill them, so he focused on their value. But on this point, William’s worries are actually a bit superfluous. Since Sean didn’t kill them at the beginning, as long as they don’t make trouble, he certainly won’t kill them all. After all, these soldiers can be regarded as real veterans. It would also be of great benefit to him if it was incorporated.

"The rest is the problem of food." William continued, "I have actually investigated this forest when I came here. Because it is relatively humid, there are not many animals growing here, but it is There are very rich fungus food and some fruits, which are basically non-toxic and can be eaten with confidence. ... However, if you have extra funds, you still need to arrange a team to buy enough food in the Kingdom of Dabiang, Because of the previous years of wars in the Kingdom of Dabion, there are actually many robbers in the territory, so the guards for transporting food must be fully equipped."

Sean nodded, expressing his understanding.

"And the most important point!" After thinking for a while, William felt that he had almost explained, "It is best to set up a temporary camp in a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and you must also pay attention to concealment. It's too revealing...at least it can't be discovered casually."

"Why?" Sean was stunned for a moment, "Is it because of the White Wing Mercenary Corps?"

"Yes." William did not deny it, but simply nodded and admitted.

"Speaking of it, I don't understand why the White Wing Mercenary Corps is targeting us? There doesn't seem to be any conflict between us, right?"

"There is indeed no conflict between the White Wing Mercenary Corps and us." William looked around sullenly, as if he was on guard for something.

Seeing William's reaction, Sean suddenly remembered the way that white wing mercenary had been staring at Cecilia that day, and suddenly seemed to understand something: "Their target... is actually Cecilia?" After seeing William nodded, Sean immediately became anxious: "Why?"

"Aren't you her protector?" This time, it was William's turn to be a little confused. (To be continued) [] If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation. )
