Mage Joan

Joan nodded in agreement with Mr. Adams' analysis.

He, Hailar, Audrey, and Holden all belonged to the same exploration team that discovered the super-magic crystal veins. They had personally inspected the middle of the veins-that is, the colonies of Jodenheim and Midgard. The border zone of the control area.

The scene that impressed Joan most at the time was not the amazing reserves of the magic crystal deposit, nor the atmosphere between the North and the South in the disputed area, but the standing in the middle of the disputed area, raising his head and looking west. The line of sight has been moving upwards along the steep rock wall. During the most noon light period, you can see a majestic castle at the top of the thousand-foot cliff, like a giant dragon overlooking the abyss, the powerful and invisible oppression The sense is enough to make those looking up can't help but tremble!

That is the northern gate of the Midgard colony, the military fortress Linyuanbao.

Translocating, standing on the east wall of Linyuanbao, overlooking the ancient abyss with the help of searchlights or investigative magic, you can see the positions on both sides of the mineral vein clearly at any time. There is no secret at all.

Furthermore, if a row of cannons is set up on the city head, you can bomb the abyss mine area without any risk. You can fight wherever you want. The other party can't resist. The only thing you can do is to pray that the shells don't hit your head.

It is precisely because the Midgard side firmly holds the strategic commanding height of Linyuanbao, and is in an undefeated position in the battle for the mining area, so in the past six months, although the Fijian people have hired more and more powerful snake people The mercenary has been unable to open up the situation in the abyss mine.

If the Feizhen people are determined to fight for the mining hegemony of the New World, they will inevitably try to pull the nail from Linyuanbao at all costs.

Looking back afterwards, Fei Zhenren had realized this critical link as early as half a year ago.

"You should remember that on the 15th of November last year, the lower house of the Fijian Parliament convened a hearing on the dispute between the colony of Jordonheim and the imperial Midgard colony and voted for a declaration of war Meaning motion."

"At the time, we all thought that the war between the two colonies of Jodenheim and Midgard was imminent, but then the evolution of the situation was unexpected. The hawkish posture of the Fijen House of Commons seemed to be just pretending, and the thunder and rain were small. After the review of the upper house, there is no more."

"By the beginning of this year, people's focus of attention has shifted from the north to Yalfheim in the south. The fierce combat attitude of the real Filipinos only stays in the mouth. The sea blue people are very real, and the real swordsmanship is done! "

"Under this situation, Midgard's public opinion atmosphere has also changed. People are keen to talk about whether the southern compatriots can block the invasion of the Hailan people. What help should we provide to the southern compatriots, subconsciously feel that Feizhen has missed the war The best time, we Midgardians can sit back and relax."

"But is this really the case? No, we are all deceived by the cunning Feizhen people."

Mr. Adams shrugged wryly.

"Remember the bill submitted by the Fijian House of Commons that has been put on hold for half a year? Just the evening before yesterday, the Fijian House of Lords convened an emergency meeting to pass the bill at the last minute. The Fijian is now in power. King George III made an exception to postpone his dinner by half an hour and held a pen in the study just to wait for the signing of the expedited bill."

"The bill signed by George III was sent to a carriage escorted by the Royal Bodyguard, ran all the way, and was sent to the embassy of the Ashan Empire in Avalon within an hour, and was handed over to the ambassador in person."

"Our ambassador signed the letter, which represents the official receipt of the declaration of war of the Fijian Kingdom. Almost at the same time, on the New World side, the New Avalon secretly went down to the "Iron Forest" ten days in advance, lurking in The Jotunheim Corps in the dense forest near the mouth of the Vimur River, including a thousand Feizhen cavalry equipped with new magic crystal rifles, plus 500 mercenaries from Caledon Island, immediately launched a surprise attack on Linyuanbao!"

"Lieutenant Colonel Henry James, who was staying in Linyuanbao, had never dreamed that the Fijians were like a **** soldier. He suddenly broke into the fortress in the middle of the night, and hurriedly led the Ministry to resist. He only persisted for less than two hours, after paying heavy casualties. , Was forced to lead the remnant to escape from the fortress, and let go of Linyuanbao."

"Do you know what is the most ridiculous?"

Mr. Adams shook his head, his lips twitching a sneering arc.

"It was only an hour after Linyuanbao lost his position that Baron Laval received a warning from the empire's homeland that he learned that the Kingdom of Feizhen had declared war on the empire and asked him to guard against the invasion of Feizhen's troops from Jodenheim."

"After receiving the news, Baron Laval quickly sent a letter to Lieutenant Colonel James, reminding him to strengthen the vigilance of Linyuanbao to guard against the attack of Fei real people, and at this time our Mr. Lieutenant Colonel... has been driven out of Linyuanbao, On the way to escape."

"Obviously, the Fijians have launched a successful sneak attack, but we cannot yet complain about their despicable acts, because the Fijians skillfully made a time difference, from all the upper house members to King George, to the South Corps on the New World side, The cooperation across the oceans did indeed start the war after the declaration of war was submitted. Obviously, we took advantage of the sneak attack. We could not pick out any faults in the process. We ate a dumb loss and couldn’t tell the pain.”

Adams is a lawyer. He knows where the legal and illegal boundaries are, and whether there is room to exploit.

One of the differences between the modern civilized society and the barbaric era is that it respects the "rules of the game" even if it is only respect on the bright side.

Waging war between the two countries also needs to abide by the rules of the game, otherwise it will inevitably be condemned by international public opinion. The Fijian authorities are obviously better at drilling the loopholes within the rules than the bloated and sluggish Ashan Empire, and the war has taken advantage of it at the beginning.

"Mr. Adams, there is something I can't understand. Where was Benedict Laval the night that Linyuanbao fell?"

Joanne couldn't help but question.

"As the military commander of the Midgard colony, the commander of the Linyuanbao fortress, why did Baron Laval not personally direct the battle to guard the fortress?"

"The night that Linyuanbao was attacked by a raid, Baron Laval and his guard cavalry company, far away from the town of Wind Knight, four hundred miles away, had no time to go back to rescue when he heard the news."

Adams lit the pipe and took a deep breath before exhaling.

Under the cover of hazy smoke, his expression looked strange.
