Chapter 130 Doing the opposite

Since we want to plan, we need intelligence.

Wang turned to Audi: "You take the dwarves to the city wall first, and defend the attack. Don't invest in the Griffin Rider!"

Audi clenched his fist with his right hand and patted the heart of the breastplate: "Of order."

He turned to the dwarves: "Honorable longbearded veterans! Come with me!"

Old Louis: "Go your own way! We are familiar with the road to the city wall, after all, we are maintaining the siege engines!!"

The dwarves were about to leave, but the king called to them: "Wait a minute! Is my dragon saddle finished? Finish it first! It's very important!"

Old Louis: "Don't worry, we finished it at four o'clock this morning. You can use it anytime you want."

Wang nodded: "Okay, let's go."

Bernal came to the king again, got off his horse, and then said to the followers: "Leave the herald, Audi, take the rest of the people away. There is no need for guards. This is the strongest team in our city. And the team And the best rogue in town."

He glanced at Marika.

"There is no safer place than this." The emperor said firmly.

The third prince saluted again and led the troops away.

Bernal asked: "Now, Master, what do I need?"

The king was also unambiguous, pointing directly at the emperor and said: "First of all, I need a secret room that will not be bugged and secrets will not be leaked."

Bernal: "I have such a secret room in my study."

Wang: "Is there a lot of space?"

"It's quite big."

"Then ask someone to bring the sound transmission stones of several generals you trust in your communications headquarters and put them in the secret room. At the same time, let these generals only keep their confidants by their side and be ready to execute orders at any time."

Bernal turned his head: "Did you hear that? Do you want me to repeat it? Go and pass the order!"

Several messengers left immediately, only the messenger holding the sound transmission stone remained in place.

Bernal: "And then?"

Wang: "Intelligence, call your most trusted intelligence officer and make sure he can answer any questions I ask."

Bernal: "Find the sound transmission stone of the shadow thief leader, I want to talk to him."

"I'm already here." A person suddenly appeared in the shadows. This person folded his arms and stared at Marika, but the drow was not surprised at all.

The shadow thief leader continued: "Also, I suggest you call the smuggling tycoon Brad, no matter what you want to do, he should be able to help you."

Bernal: "You should have called him, right? Let him come with you."

The shadow thief leader bowed slightly.

Wang: "I can't think of anything else for the time being. Let's go to the secret room first. Let's discuss it in the long run."

Like a butler, Bernal made a "this way please" gesture.Many passers-by were watching this scene, including those loyal messengers.

At this time, one can already imagine how it would be embellished afterwards.

**
When everyone arrived at the palace, the "smuggling tycoon" Brad had already arrived, along with a few of his subordinates.He hastily introduced: "These are all my confidantes who have been with me for more than 20 years. I am involved in smuggling. Once they leak the secret, my head will fall to the ground."

Rhett scratched his neck as he spoke.

Bernal looked at him: "Are you the one who stole a lot of tax money from me?"

"That's right, I'm the one who stole a lot of taxes from you, but it's not as much as your nobles' hidden tax revenues. In fact, it's more than a fraction. Of course, it's not as good as the military salaries deducted by your generals. Not even a leader."

Ruide bowed slightly to the emperor as he spoke.

Bernal snorted, waved his hands and said, "Come on!"

At the door of the secret room, the emperor directly snatched the sound transmission stone from the entourage.

"You don't need to go in." He said to the messenger, "Let my butler keep the sound transmission stone at all times."

After the messenger left, the emperor opened the mechanism in front of everyone, and a wall shrank in, revealing a secret passage, and then the magic light sources in the passage were lit up one by one.

"Everyone, please."

The secret room of the emperor's study is indeed quite large, so big that the three magic light sources still cannot illuminate some places.

But the most indispensable thing for the king is the magic light source.

He took out his faucet staff, and as soon as he let go of the staff, the staff floated beside him, becoming a moving light source that followed him.

The entire secret room was immediately illuminated like daylight.

Wang directly swept everything on the largest table in the secret room to the ground: "Map! Maps of the city and its surroundings!"

Rhett directly took out two maps from his dimensional bag and spread them out on the table.

Wang was very happy when he saw the map: "I also marked all the campsites of the orcs, okay."

Bai Ruide: "Not only is it marked, but it was just updated at five o'clock in the morning today."

Wang: "Is there a position for a necromancer?"

The leader of the shadow thief replied: "Skull mark. Each skull mark represents a necromancer team. There may be a six-ring, with a few one-ring to three-ring. By the way, because we scratched the tongue, this team is now in a state of frightened birds .”

He clicked on the skull sign in the orc camp in the south of the city.

Wang: "How do the orcs communicate with the two sides of the river? The Long Bridge Fortress has not been breached, has it?"

Bernal: "No. There are only soldiers in the fortress, so the food storage can last for more than a year, and there is no need to worry about being breached in a short time."

Wang: "Where the orcs use Wyverns to airborne?"

"The towers of the fortress are relatively dense, and it is not easy for the Wyvern to land. The wings will hit the tower, which may cause the Wyvern to be injured." Bernal continued.

Wang nodded, and then silently observed the map.

Xiaobai was lying on the edge of the table, trying to stretch her neck to see what was drawn on the map - the table was relatively high, and the map from her perspective was completely flat, so it was normal to not be able to see clearly.

The dwarf simply gave up looking at the map, found a chair to sit down, and began to fill his pipe.

Both elves were standing beside the king, also looking at the map.

Elizabeth was placed on the only sofa in the room by Malika, and Gotrick stood beside her, holding an ax and staring at the group led by Rhett.

The savages are clearly ready to fight at any time.

Rosalie looked at the members of the team, hesitated to speak.

Malika: "What do you want to say, Your Highness."

Rosalie: "Eh? Oh, I mean...you guys look like you've been through this a lot."

Nini: "I don't have many, just once."

Xiaobai: "Twice... er, three times?"

Dwarf: "I've been through it all, me and the barbarian."

Gotrick: "High!"

Malika didn't speak. In fact, she and Elizabeth were the original members of the team, but apparently the drow didn't care about it.

And the mage didn't care, he was concentrating on observing the map.

Finally, Wang said: "Okay, I have a general idea. The key is the necromancer. Without the necromancer driving the ceremony, even if the orcs have set the node, it is completely useless! We have to hunt and kill Spirit mage.

"Before that, let me ask, has the Shadow Thief found the second Lich?"

"No." The leader of the shadow thief said firmly, "Even the one you killed before arrived not long after riding the corpse dragon. As soon as we got information about it, you were attacked, and then you killed him .”

Wang: "So are those necromancers human? Or skeleton necromancers? The latter is much more troublesome to deal with. Physical resistance alone is a big deal."

Shadow thief leader: "It's human."

Wang nodded: "Then if we launch a surprise attack, how many can you kill in disorder?"

The leader replied immediately: "If someone attracts attention, I mean, the attention of night raids, we are sure to deal with the necromancers in these places."

He clicked a few skulls on the map with his hands.

Wang: "Understood, then we have to arrange..."

Suddenly, the sound transmission stone brought by the emperor vibrated.

"It's me," he said.

"Your Majesty, the sound transmission stone you requested has been delivered from the communication headquarters." The butler's voice came from the sound transmission stone.

"Okay, I'll open the door and let them in."

After that, the emperor came to the secret room and pressed the switch: "This secret room of mine cannot be opened from the outside when there are people inside. So we are absolutely safe inside. If the city is broken, I will hide my youngest son and daughter in the secret room. Here, just here is a mouthful of magic items that will be filled with porridge every day."

Wang frowned: "Is it the artifact I was thinking of? That artifact produces thick porridge every day, but only soft nuns think this porridge is delicious."

Emperor: "No, it's not this one. It's an artifact called the Famine Giver."

Wang: "Famine donors are placed in the royal secret room just to save the emperor's youngest son and daughter from being wiped out? You can't be called a benevolent king at all."

Bernal: "I am a tyrant, as you will soon see. But I can protect my people."

At this time, the gate was fully opened, and a group of soldiers came in holding the sound transmission stone.

Many people entered the emperor's secret room for the first time, staring around.

When they saw Nini's elf ears, they were even more surprised—of course, what surprised everyone the most was the dragon-headed scepter floating beside the king.

After a group of people left, Bernal wiped the butler's neck.

The butler nodded.

Wang: "Wait a minute, are you going to kill them all?"

"Yes, everyone involved in moving the sound stone, I'll make sure they can't tell the secret to a second person. That way no one knows which general we're going to use."

Everyone was silent.

Wang suddenly said: "It is reasonable. But it is not necessary, because we will not notify the generals before the raid. This operation will test the organization of your army."

Bernal: "Master, do you want to make a surprise attack?"

"Yes, only by keeping secrets from ourselves can we keep secrets from the enemy. When we launch an attack, even if there is a careful operation, the orcs will have no time to respond. Of course, we will also do deception. For example, in the current battle, we will not invest in it. Gryphon Rider."

Bernal: "Is this deceiving the enemy? You have thought about it since then?"

Wang: "It's a pity that I don't know if it will work, but it's always right to use it. Your Griffin Knight has suffered serious losses, and I guess even if you invest it, it won't have much effect."

Bernal: "I really can't get up."

"So their task is to take off to surprise the enemy after our attack is launched tonight, and use Molotov cocktails to bombard them horizontally." Wang gestured, "In this way, we must pay attention to a soldier who is not tired of cheating. The enemy thinks that there will be no Griffin Knights. When the power is put into the ground battle, the Griffin Rider is here again."

Rhett: "Is the time lag? Then how do you launch a ground attack if you don't go in the air?"

Wang looked at him: "I was planning to attack from the air, so I asked the Griffin Knight to save my strength, and confirmed with the dwarves that the dragon saddle has been built. But you are not here, so I thought, maybe we don't need to do this trouble."

Rhett was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly: "Hahahaha! Is someone like me who met for the first time also included in the plan? Yes, we have a smuggling route through the old dwarf mine underground. How do you know of?"

Wang: "Because in Landon Land, we were once attacked by people through the dwarven underground passage. Then in River Valley Land, we found the remains of the dwarves underground, very large ones.

"A reasonable guess is that there are old dwarf tunnels in this area. There was a powerful dwarf kingdom here in the second era or even earlier."

Bai Ruide: "No, you will be disappointed. We have searched the underground completely. There are no large dwarf underground ruins, only passages. I think this may be the edge of the dwarf-controlled area. After all, you see, such a majestic White City wall Stand here, before Myhrvold's ancestors cleared it, it was the lair of monsters."

Speaking of which, Braide took out a new map and spread it on the table: "This is the underground terrain map that our smugglers found out. Your Majesty, can this map be used to offset the tax we missed?"

Bernal folded his hands on his chest: "Of course. If you win this time, I will give you an earl."

"Hahaha, I can't go on the bright side, and in fact, even the dukes of the empire admire me, and they rely on me to get some contraband."

Bernal shook his head.

Wang pointed to the underground map: "Where do these exits correspond to on the ground?"

"Let me mark it for you." Ruide turned around and took out glasses from the wine cabinet behind him, and put several on the map, "This is the exit, you should be able to see the corresponding relationship?"

Wang: "Yes. I found that I can directly attack the stronghold of the orcs. Will they be alert?"

The leader of the shadow thief: "Of course I will be alert. In fact, there are orcs guarding the door. But..."

Wang: "Alchemy explosives. We can explode the ground, which can create chaos and have an exit surprise. Just pay attention to ensuring that the impact of the explosion is sprayed in one direction when setting up the explosives."

Shadow thief leader: "We have a skilled alchemist, he..."

"I am a skilled alchemist." Wang interrupted the leader, "I just mix potions, and I can do it without pouring magic into it."

Shadow thief leader: "But we already have a warehouse of alchemy explosives. Our masters are also very good at 'directional blasting'. They used this method to steal the mint's vault."

Wang: "Okay, then leave it to the professionals. The remaining problem is to try to create a false impression for the orcs that we will not attack tonight, and paralyze them. It is definitely not enough to not use the Griffon Knight."

Wang rubbed his chin in thought.

Marika: "Ball. We can have a celebratory dance."

Wang: "It's useless. We talked about the Lich's magic in the street. The other party must know that we are going to attack..."

Suddenly, Wang smiled.

"Yeah, let's take advantage of this in reverse."
