Chapter 735 Lanita's decision
Under the powerful deterrent force of Bailong, in less than ten days, Yanxue City has gathered more than [-] troops, and at this time there are still five days left before the deadline given by Lanita.

Counting those who are still on the road, there should be no problem in making up 3 people.

Clovis originally thought that Lanita would personally lead the army to the green field to fight Ilea, just like the battle between Vespasian and Joao.

However, the girl didn't seem to have any plans in this regard, and she directly gave the position of coach to Clovis.

Clovis felt a little helpless, "I'm too old and have no experience in leading troops in battle. I'm afraid I won't be able to lead this army to bring you the victory you want."

Lanita glanced at the old man. The latter was indeed a bit too old, even among half-orcs, he was quite long-lived.

It's okay to guard Yanxue City at this age, but it's obviously unrealistic to expect him to go out to fight again.

"Then do you have anyone to recommend?" the girl asked again.

"Fabry, the Patriarch of the Popo Family, is a well-known commander in the West, and Sir Camzi from Red Tower City was once the most trusted subordinate of the late Marquis Cullen.

"There is also Glenn of Graycastle. Although he is not yet 30 years old, he is already a well-known warrior just like his father..."

"Very well, gather all the people you mentioned, give them 50 people each, and let them fight a battle. The final winner will be the commander of this army."

Lanita said bluntly, and then she looked at Clovis again, "Any questions?"

Clovis paused, then continued, "The lords outside still want to know how they will cooperate with you and your dragon after they arrive in the green field."

"My dragon and I will not go to war."

Clovis frowned, "You started this war, but you don't intend to take action?"

"I put a bounty on the heads of Ilea and Merlin with the entire western region, but in the end, I have to do it myself?"

Lanita asked in surprise, "Then why did I ask you to come and applaud me?"

Although the girl's words were harsh, Clovis couldn't refute them.

However, the old man still said truthfully afterwards, "Some lords are worried that the current manpower is not enough to win Teacup Castle."

"How many fighters are there in the Alias ​​family and the Shuangxiu religion? Eight thousand, ten thousand? You have three times as many fighters as them."

"However, Sir Ilea has also defeated an enemy several times stronger than herself in the Dragon's Back Mountain Range before, and this time the battle took place in her territory, and she is more familiar with it than any of us.

"In addition, the morale of our army is not as good as that of the opponent. Many lords have to send troops because they are afraid of your dragon and the army behind them. It is unknown how much strength they can exert in battle."

Clovis made it clear, "Of course, if you let the white dragon join the battle, then all these problems will be solved, and the morale of the soldiers will also be greatly improved."

"Unfortunately, this is impossible." Lanita refused, "We Yi people have always admired the brave, and killing Ilea and Merlin is a necessary test for becoming the new master of this land.

"If you can't even pass this simple test, Lord Solomon will not agree to divide the Western Territory, but..." The girl changed the subject.

"Although I won't take action directly, I can help you a little bit. This is not a violation of Lord Solomon's order."

"If I can get you another 3 people, are you sure you can defeat the Arias family?"

"Find another 3 people?" Clovis was startled when he heard that, "Where do you find them?"

"As far as I know, there are still aristocratic families in the western region who ignored our call, or just sent some people over symbolically. I gave them a chance, but since they are still stubborn, don't blame me for being rude."

Lanita's idea is very simple. That Ilea and the Shuangxiu Sect behind her are weird. Many Yi people and a dragon have been planted in their hands before.

Lanita didn't plan to rashly intervene in the next war before she figured out their specific strength.

But this does not mean that she can only stay in Yanxue City, she can continue to use the deterrent power of the dragon to drive other families to the opposite of the Arias family as much as possible.

Just like what she said to Clovis before, if 3 people are not enough, then 6 people, if not enough, then 9 people... Even grinding can kill the Arias family and the Shuangxiu Church.

This solution may not be the fastest, but it must be the most likely to win and the safest.

In fact, Lanita didn't see any possibility of failure. Even if the first army was defeated, she could still send the second army over.

And Lanita did what she said, and that afternoon, she rode the White Queen to Iron Horn City, a city that belonged to the Monson family.

Before the rise of the Arias family, the strength of the Moncent family in the western region was second only to the Figuerola family and the Emmanuel family.

Iron Horn City is home to the largest number of blacksmiths in the Western Region, and is famous for its rich weapons and armor.

Lanita flew over the Iron Horn City, found the tallest building there, and drove the White Queen over there.

The latter had already started brewing dragon flames halfway, and when it flew over Iron Horn City, the giant white dragon opened its huge mouth and poured all the raging fire onto the stone fortress under its feet.

Lanita vaguely heard the screams of humans coming from inside the fortress, but she didn't stay to admire her masterpiece, but turned around and left before the archers arrived.

Then the white dragon hovered over Iron Horn City for a while, setting fire to two markets and dozens of shops, until the people in the city were running for their lives in panic, and then Lanita patted the white dragon on the neck.

One person and one dragon quickly disappeared into the sky.

And almost three days later, they reappeared in Beize, which was the territory of the Bathory family.

The latter is said to have always been a staunch ally of the Arias family, and the head of the family, Ferdinand, later converted to Saturday along with Ilea.

Lanita was extra cautious when attacking there, but she didn't encounter much resistance and succeeded easily.

However, Beize itself is adjacent to the river and has a rich water system, which makes it difficult for the fire to spread. Moreover, the people there seem to have got the news in advance, and they left their residences and hid by the river.

Lanita and Bailong's sudden attack only burned some houses, but failed to cause too many casualties.

This made the girl a little dissatisfied, so she continued to fly the dragon to the south, where nobles also refused to send troops.
