I am a god in another world

"I think the first thing we need to discuss is not this kind of tactical issue, but a strategic issue. What is the significance of us capturing Ivanso? ​​Are we just going to be mercenaries, just get a profit and leave? Or is it like Blood Gorge, Like the Dwarf Statue City, send someone to rule here? What will be the consequences if you do this?" Carissa's words directly raised the nature of this meeting to a new level.

Before she joined Gavin's command, she was just a shaman and part-time combat team captain of the mountain tribe. Compared with fighting with people, they fought more with the sky (a difficult living environment).

In the previous elite confrontation between Misnoel and the drow, she only showed the ability to command an elite team. This can also be explained by her previous hunting experience.

But there is no way to explain the strategic vision in front of her. It can only be said that some things are her innate talents. She has her own uniqueness in war.

"We definitely cannot occupy it. Once occupied, the nature of the whole thing will completely change. We will become out-and-out invaders on the Dragon Coast. Those cities that are still hesitant will definitely ignore it for their own safety. Everyone joins forces to start a war with us. If we are an elite army, we may still have the possibility of a war, but our main body is civilians and cannot fight mobile warfare, and we do not have any mass base here. Time Over time, we will be like those invading monster tribes, and we will be killed by force. This is just one of them."

Veranika said firmly, "Secondly, when we pass through the Kingdom of Cormyr, it will be difficult to borrow a passage from them. For their own safety, they will not allow an army with Aggressive troops pass through their territory."

The second half of the conqueror's army has also been finalized.

In Ivanso, they will follow the wasteland path, enter the goblin wilderness sandwiched between the Sunset Mountains and the Stormhorn Mountains, all the way to the rocky land, and follow the high road to the valley.

At that time, the Kingdom of Cormyr will be the biggest obstacle blocking their way.

It is purely because the conqueror's army is now too large, to the extent that even the Kingdom of Cormyr cannot take it lightly. They must negotiate in advance to find a way, especially since Gavin's Dragon Oak Territory is still in their territory, and they cannot easily engage in war.

In fact, there is another way to go compared to this way.

It was the same road that Bloodclaw took from the valley. He took a boat across Dragon Lake, then passed through Sambia, and directly arrived at the Land of Three Rivers. This road was relatively close to one-third of the way.

But there are two problems. One is that without a large number of ships, safety is not guaranteed when crossing the lake.

Second, the relationship between Gavin and Sambia is very tense. Once they enter rashly, it will definitely be an all-out war. Without a second option, the land of Three Rivers will be affected. This is what Gavin does not want to see.

"I agree with the opinion of the Chief of Staff. The Dragon Coast has been in chaos for a long time and cannot be changed in a short time. Unless we are determined to keep the entire army here permanently, the value of occupying the city here is relatively low. With this Instead of energy, it is better to build a city on the spot like Blood Gorge City. At least everything is under our control and there is no need to mix with the local forces." Carissa expressed her opinion, "This is not the case. It means there is no value at all.”

“Where does value come from?”

"Population! For us, population is the greatest wealth. The turbulent situation on the Dragon Coast means that the population here is destined to be very mobile. In all cities, there are a large number of people who are dissatisfied with the authorities. As long as they are allowed to see them a little bit, With a little hope, there will definitely be countless people willing to join the migration.”

Carissa showed a sly smile on her honest face and said, "Although we cannot occupy territory on a large scale here, we can cooperate with local forces and obtain enough preferential policies from them to purchase industries here.

Especially in the industries related to Blood Gorge City, we have an absolute advantage. After transporting it from the other side of the Giant Plains, we can monopolize the interests.

Even if our migrant population can double here, I believe it will not be enough for the lord. Many intensive industries that employ a lot of people will definitely have to be separated and look for densely populated areas to set up processing plants.

Dragon Coast is an excellent choice. It is very far away by land, but it is relatively convenient to get here from the valley by sea.

If there is an opportunity, we can completely build this place into a second Sambia by supporting agents, allowing them to rush to the front, compete with Sambia in business, relieve the pressure on the valley side, and take the opportunity to develop rapidly. . "

After hearing these words, most people stared at Carissa in stunned silence.

It's not how earth-shattering the plan she proposed is, it mainly depends on who proposed the plan.

If this plan was proposed by Chief of Staff Veranika or Lord Gavin, everyone would take it for granted because they themselves have a strategic vision of the overall situation.

But when it was brought up by Carissa, it was somewhat unbelievable. After all, she usually shows herself to be brave, warlike, and honest. This is the racial character and label of Goliath. She is the Goliath among Goliaths. , put everything first.

Most of the time, many people even forget that she is also a spellcaster and has a certain degree of spellcasting ability.

The only ones who were not surprised were Darren and Gavin.

The former is because during this period, the two have cooperated the most, and know how talented this tall woman is, how much effort she has put into building the Vanguard Army from scratch.

Without her and the selfless support of the Goliath War Group she led, the Vanguard Army would not be as strong as it is now even if it was formed.

The latter is because he knows that the other party is not a pure Goliath, and has half drow blood in his body. Some things are in his bones and are innate.

There was no opportunity to explore this aspect before, but since meeting Gavin, he began to absorb this knowledge eagerly.

In Misnoel, she not only got close to another half-drow elf Sterina, but also had a good relationship with the pure drow elf Daphne - according to the standards of the drow elves, if they don’t stab each other in the back or scheme against each other, the relationship is considered to be quite good.

She had often asked him about some strange things, such as this intensive industry. This professional term must have come from him. He didn't remember when he talked about it with Kaylissa. He didn't expect that she would integrate it and make it her own.

Based on her words, her future development direction is not to be a general who leads an army alone, but a candidate for the commander in charge of the overall situation.

The only regret is that she is not Gavin's direct descendant now. The inseparable bond between her and Goliath still binds her, making it impossible for Gavin to grant her greater power and entrust her with important tasks.

But people will change, especially the large-scale migration of the Conqueror Army, which has the greatest impact on people's inherent concepts. This is a process of tearing up and reshaping.

Including Kaylissa, who was only seconded to assist Gavin and his team in the migration, and the Goliath she led, the inherent concepts were also greatly impacted.

Wait until the remaining half of the Conqueror Road is completed, and it will not be too late to see their changes. As long as they stay by my side, I still have a chance.

"Why are you looking at me like this? What? Is there a problem with the view I put forward? If there is a problem, you can point it out. In the words of the Lord, I am just throwing out a brick to attract jade." Kailisha was a little scared by the strange looks of everyone. After all, she still lacked the most basic confidence in this regard.

"It's not that there is a problem, but you said it too well, which surprised everyone. In the past, everyone only knew your bravery, but didn't know that you also had your own unique insights in strategic layout and business. Don't you think so?" Gavin said with a smile.

"That's right. After listening to the lady's words, I feel that my previous thoughts were too shallow. I only saw the gains and losses of a city and a place, and did not look at things from a global perspective. In this way, it seems that it is better not to occupy it."

"Before that, I have a question. Can you help me solve it? Why do we have to immigrate to the valley? With our current strength, let alone the Dragon Coast, even in the Blood Gorge City before, it is enough to take root and run our own city." The earth elf warlord Thomas asked the questions in many people's hearts.

Everyone's eyes turned to Gavin. No one could answer this question for him, not even Veronica.

"I believe you are not the only one who has this question. As our strength increases and we are able to capture cities and territories, more and more people will have this idea. Today I will explain it here in a unified way." Gavin's brain was working fast, organizing his words, "Everything has a purpose, and this is also the case with our organization of immigration.

If we simply find a way to live for these immigrants, we don't need to leave Tesser at all with our strength. We can just find a suitable place and build a new city in a few days.

But for us, it has no strategic significance.

But if we can successfully bring this group of immigrants to the valley, it will be different. We will become the majority of a sub-valley and don't need to occupy it at all. This sub-valley and even the surrounding sub-valleys will have to rely on us. Look ahead.

This city built by us will be shaped into what we want according to our will.

It is different in cities and densely populated areas like the Dragon Coast. The intrigues with local forces alone will take up most of our energy. There is no way to let go of production and construction and maximize our advantages.

In addition, I have many plans in the valley. I can't share them with you one by one now. You just need to remember that in the valley, our growth limit is much higher than any other place.

Time will witness my promise today. I will lead you to climb unprecedented peaks and witness unprecedented glory in the valley. "

At the end, Gavin was a little vague.

Because he couldn't bring out the most critical reason.

He couldn't say that he was a reborn person with the ability to predict the future.

The core event that determines the fate of Faerun and even the entire Toril will happen in the North, in the valley.

He is just making arrangements in advance, occupying the most core position, and striving to become strong enough to become one of the operators before the full outbreak, rather than being pushed to the old path by the hand of fate.

This is a road that can only go forward and cannot retreat, and one can only move forward courageously.

"The destination cannot be changed, but this matter has become much simpler. Other places are auxiliary, and the destination is the main body. Strategic plans in other places are all centered around this main body. Therefore, I agree with Carissa Madam’s plan is to cooperate with local friendly forces to plunder the population and wealth to the greatest extent, and at the same time lay out our industries, and continuously suck blood from here, not only wealth, but also population, to support our cities in other regions. , to speed up their development." Bloodsworn Warlord Thomas was the first to ask questions and the first to accept Gavin's explanation.

Because to him, it didn't matter whether the reasons given by Gavin were reasonable or not. What was important was that he could clarify the goal. Once the head was set, the rest of the matter would be easy to start.

This is the strategic thinking of the hobgoblin.

Looting other people's supplies to enrich themselves is their best and favorite method. It's just that the scale of the conqueror's army is now larger.

"After our meeting, the first task is to clearly inform all front-line commanders that our migration target this time is the Battle Valley in the valley, so that they can use all methods to unite the hearts of all immigrants and prevent them from Accept all temptations from the outside world and follow the army unswervingly until you reach your destination," Veranika suggested on the side.

For her, the final destination is equally unimportant; what matters most is the process and the strategic plan executed in the process.

Now their big migration involves far more things than they imagined.

Not only His Highness the Yin Red Knight, the God of Strategy, paid great attention to it.

Shanda Keer, the god of travel and exploration, may also follow them like a shadow, paying attention to their every move.

Whether it is large-scale road opening or migration, it is a supreme honor for him and can greatly enhance his divine power.

"This should have been the case a long time ago." General Copperfield nodded in agreement, "This matter was our mistake. We should have made this clear from the beginning. Only in this way can the following front-line commanders start their work easily. ”

"General, there is no need to blame yourself. After all, we are crossing the river by feeling the stones. It is impossible to consider everything perfectly. Moreover, the entire army looks different every day. Before setting off, we did not expect that we would not only be able to destroy one In the troll kingdom, we can also build two cities that belong to us.

Unexpectedly, we were only halfway through and the migrating army was called the army of conquerors.

Maybe the Dragon Coast will be our new place of transformation, taking our strength to a new level. How far we can achieve it depends on what strategies and tactics we will adopt next. "

Gavin smiled and said, "If no one raises objections, our overall strategy on the Dragon Coast is to unite all the forces we can, support our own agents, carry out industrial layout, and draw as much population and resources from here as possible. wealth."

This brainstorming process is also a process that helps Gavin clarify his thinking. His original strategic layout of Dragon Coast was not as clear as it is now.

At least when he received the messengers of Ivanso and the Avengers Resistance Army alone, he was only struggling with the problems in this city.

Everyone whispered among themselves and reached a consensus on this point. If they don't want to send troops on a large scale here and get themselves involved in the quagmire of war, this is the best strategic method.

"Since we all agree to implement this strategy, let's talk about where we should start to collect wealth? How to better motivate those people in the Gulf to join our migration team?" After Gavin set the main tone, The following detailed plan was started.

"Nothing like this can better demonstrate one's strength than a glorious victory. The victory we won on the other side of the Giant Plains was more than five hundred kilometers away from here. The news on both sides was relatively isolated, and it was different. Race, the human beings here are not as profound as we expected, and this can be seen from their attitude towards us. "

The first to speak was the Blood-sworn warlord Thomas. He was the least senior in the army of conquerors, and he was from a different race, so he was the most active. He actively displayed his talents and strived to win a higher status for himself.

"Ivanso is our best intervention point. The special nature of their current rulers makes the people of the Dragon Coast, even if they are not on our side, at least not on the other side. As long as they can remain neutral, It’s good for us.”

"Who said people's hearts are not on our side?" Carissa, whose strategic views were recognized, her self-confidence has been improved to a certain extent, and she once again made suggestions, "The super powerful plague virus they have in their hands is a double-edged sword.

It is a powerful weapon against the enemy and has super lethality against oneself.

As long as the plague virus they have is revealed to other cities on the Dragon Coast, even if they don't unite and besiege, people's hearts will be biased towards us.

After we defeated Ivanso, we handed it over to the local rebels to rule, saying that we only did this for the sake of justice and righteousness. I believe it can win over us and also take the opportunity to recruit some of the population from Ivanso. Take away, the key to this war is public opinion. As long as we get it right, we will win half the battle. "
