Lord of War

11. Step by step

War may be simpler in the game.

Because as long as the player prepares food and other preparations, the system will automatically calculate how many days the war can last, and the operation of the logistics route will also be automatically set by the system, usually without causing too much burden on the player. Moreover, in addition to the army, the main force of the war also has a large number of players who can join the war, so in fact, although the situation looks complicated and chaotic, there is a natural rhythm.

But changing the environment to reality is completely different. Not to mention the cumbersome workload, several sets of plans are needed, because there are already countless variables such as weather, terrain, enemy morale, and alliances. And so on, all may change the situation of a war.

When Sean and Simmy returned to Panda, Rena and Alfred had already arrived in Panda Town and found William who was in charge of the town's relocation. And when the two told William about Sean's decision, William left violently on the spot.

"That lunatic Sean!" William let out an angry growl that almost shook the sky, "Is his brain stuffed with hay?... Didn't see that the territory has just stabilized, how could he want to The war has begun! Now that the food in the territory is not enough, where can he get enough rations to support this war?"

For William's rant, Alfred and Rena were smart enough not to answer.

Strictly speaking, Alfred has known William longer than Reina, but if you count the two months when Alfred went to rescue soldiers, and the one-month period when he was stationed in Panda Town, He was not much better than Rina. After all, Rena and William had lived together in the same military camp for a month, so she would know some of William's temperament better.

Seeing that neither Rena nor Alfred was interested in answering the conversation, William cursed a few times angrily. I can only give up.

He glanced back at most of the townspeople in Panda Town with numb eyes, sighed slightly, and then said: "Fred, you lead two hundred white wing mercenaries to the small village where Neil lives. No matter what method you use, you must bring that guy back to me... Of course, he must not be missing arms or legs, and he will still be responsible for the internal affairs of this territory in the future."

Alfred was slightly taken aback.

"What are you still doing in a daze? Do you really think that the war will really start in a month when Sean said that no one will be able to step down that Mordig collar in a month?" William sighed, "This battle is the most important one." It will not be possible to fight until after autumn. Now it is just the right time for the second cultivation. It will take at least two or three months to wait for the harvest. It is considered fast to fight the battle before winter, but military strategists are always taboo Fighting in winter, I don’t know what Xiao En thinks.”

Hearing this, Alfred also understood. Knowing that the commander that Xiao En valued already has an idea.

"Forget it, I asked you to stay here not long after I came back. Now I want you to go on a trip of at least two months. You can leave in a few days." William thought for a while, and said, " I saw little Xina some time ago, and she was in good spirits, but after all, there was still no one in the castle, so Xina moved to Baige Town now. You can go back and spend a few days with her. ... and , when you go this time, by the way, bring back all the corpses of the northern barbarians that were deposited in the temple of Loveland City."

Alfred was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay."

To be able to spend more time with my daughter. How could Alfred refuse?

Rina looked at William and Alfred with some curiosity. She was a little confused about who gathered around the lord. Everyone seemed to have a story, and the relationship between each other The relationship does not seem to be like superior and subordinate, but more like some family members, which really makes her very curious. Even if she was indeed only from a small mercenary regiment, she still understands some things. For example, to control people's hearts is nothing more than a combination of grace and power, but looking at this lord, he has grace, but she can't see the power anyway. where.

Alfred didn't stop, turned around and got on his horse and left.

The world is so big, where is home?

For Alfred, the place where Hina can live well is home.

"Although Sean sometimes makes trouble for no reason, he has always been sincere in his dealings with others." Seeing Reina's thoughtfulness, William said, "There are thousands of ways to control people in this world, and the combination of kindness and strength is the most famous one. It’s just the best one. Sean took another path, which may not be easy, but no one will underestimate him if he knows how to be grateful. … It doesn’t matter if you want to call it a means or a skill , but in my opinion, this is a kind of respect for me."

Rina was a little taken aback.

"Let's go, finish the relocation quickly, and we can enter the combat readiness earlier." William said softly, "Our intelligence network has not been fully established, and we don't know many things, so we just The most primitive method can be used... I plan to leave this matter to you."

"Me?" Rena was a little dazed.

"Fred took away 200 white wing mercenaries, and the rest I will form a team of 800 people for you." William continued, "Of course, I also know your level of ability, so I will put Nock, Altdorf, and Stalin will also be entrusted to you. As for how to torment these 800 people, that is your business. Your only task is to collect as much information as possible from other surrounding territories... If you start a war later, If your information can be used for meritorious service, then I will apply to Sean to set up a cavalry unit and let you command it."

In Ruina's eyes, the look of bewilderment became heavier, but there was also a hint of excitement and anticipation.

Seeing the excitement finally showing in Reina's eyes, William continued, "However, let me tell you first, given the current situation in the territory, the heavy cavalry cannot be supported, and only a light cavalry can be maintained. , but the number should not be less than five hundred."

He knew that Sean would definitely not easily give up the idea of ​​forming a cavalry unit. Since this cannot be stopped, it would be better to start training Reina now. And this time is also a good time to test the three of Nock, Stalin, and Altdorf. Even if Reina really can't command this cavalry unit in the future, at least the three of Nock, Stalin, and Altdorf can take over this team. .

From these aspects, it has to be said that William's consideration is very thorough.

When Sean and Simmy returned to Panda, the one-month deadline he told the Boulder family had already passed. And Alfred also led 200 people to set off to tie Neil back, and Rina led 800 white wing mercenaries to disperse out, and established a rough settlement on several territories connected to Panda Town. The rudimentary form of the information network is something that every lord must deal with, but it usually takes one or two years to slowly build it, unlike Panda Ling who wants to eat into a big fat man in one go.

It's just that other lords have this time to develop slowly, but Sean doesn't.

Overall, Sean is actually quite poor, because time is not on his side.

For at least the next two years, time is on the other side.

When William saw Sean return, he didn't have any good face.

At this time, he just happened to arrange the relocation of the entire Panda Town. Once this work is officially started, it will take at least two months. And during this period of time, the entire territory is really useless. To put it simply, once the migration starts, then in the next two and a half months, it will become a joke for Sean to flatten the Mordegg Territory. .

Of course, only Sean knew whether it was really a joke or not. However, outsiders, especially those from the Darbion Kingdom, are more than happy to take this joke as a real one.

"What do you think?" After all the questions were prepared, William asked Sean, kicking the troublesome decision-making back to Sean's feet again.

"Relocation!" Without thinking too much, Sean made up his mind, "The second in line needs time, and we also need time. ... Alfred was sent by you to kidnap people, and Reina was sent by you Gathering information, Cecilia has not woken up until now, and I have begun to doubt her bloodline. Anyway, our territory does not want anything now, so why fight at this time, we can do whatever we need to do.”

As if he had already guessed Sean's plan, William didn't say anything more, but turned around and gave instructions to An Nuo beside him, and the mighty relocation of the town officially began. In fact, the distance of the relocation is not far, which is only four or five days, but the real difficulty lies in the issue of land distribution in the future, and after all, Baige Town is planning to expand the city, so of course the city planning must also be completed. Dealing with it together is the most time-consuming.

Moreover, two months does not mean that this city can be built, but some prototypes of reconstruction and planning are enough to allow more than 5,000 people to have a residence. After that, the entire city will be built in one to two years. The building was completed successively within a period of time. After all, it was done by manpower, and it was not as good as the special external assistance that Tonis Fortress had back then. Sean would not say anything about this.

Everything is still going according to plan.

When more than 2,000 soldiers with steel wings escorted the last 2,000 surviving townspeople of Panda Town on the road together, Xiao En was suddenly shocked in his heart, and a slight look of surprise appeared on his face .

"What's the matter?" As a magician, Simi possessed extremely sensitive sensing ability, so he noticed Xiao En's emotional changes in an instant.

"It's nothing." Sean smiled, "Looking at this long line, I'm just a little emotional."

Simi let out an oh, but didn't say anything more.

On the contrary, it was Sean who was a little surprised and opened the panel for the territory mission. (To be continued) [This text is provided by Qihang Update Group @无相煌] If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.
