This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 426: Candidate for Marshal

"Is it because the moonlight over there is so bright that you, a shady lich like you, can't sleep? Do you know it's late at night here?" Ardalian said dissatisfied.

Although Aldarion has just woken up, this does not affect his noble temperament at all. The elves seem to be born like this. To put it in cruder terms, the way the elves pick their noses is far more elegant and beautiful than the average race.

Ardalian reclining on the bed with his pajamas in messy condition, if photographed, it would sell for a high price in the circle of many aristocratic ladies.

 But no matter Amberxiu or Ai Ge, the two undead were indifferent to this.

Amberxiu said bluntly: "I waited until night to wake you up just to make you sleep poorly. Do you understand?"

There was an angry look on Aldarian's face, but he quickly calmed down and said to Amberxiu: "Very good, you succeeded, then I will turn off this thing and continue to sleep."

Amber Xiu said: "It's not that simple. Let me ask you, ask your elves to help write a battle plan. What can you get me? Is this thing the level of your elves?"

Aldarian smiled and said: "There is no way. The elves are not good at undersea combat. We can only rely on imagination. There must be mistakes and omissions. I suggest you not follow the above plan and make your own use of the situation."

"That's a pity." Amberxiu said with regret, "In this case, you elves will suffer a big loss."

Ardalian frowned, and then said: "I know that answering your words is equivalent to drinking a glass of poisonous wine, but I still have to ask, what do you mean by this?"

Amberxiu said proudly: "That's the literal meaning. If you don't help, you elves will miss an excellent opportunity this time."

 “What chance?” Aldarian asked again.

"A zero-cost practice opportunity to command a huge battle. Aldarian, I'm afraid you don't know that I not only asked the elves for help, I also asked military experts from other kingdoms, including the Lion Empire. I was originally going to watch What are the pros and cons of your plan, and then let more skilled generals take command.

"That was a big melee involving hundreds of thousands of troops. How many years do you elves have to wait for this opportunity? Moreover, none of you need to go out, there is no loss at all, you only need to conduct remote command through the magic mirror. And you What can you get? Not only command experience, you can see how those marine races fight, and you can even see how the Lane people lead their troops..."

Amberxiu’s words seemed to hit Aldarian’s heart. He said in surprise: “You dare to let us take command?”

"Then it depends on who has the ability. This is a war for an entire kingdom. The battlefield is hundreds of thousands of square kilometers, and there are countless weird terrains on the seabed. Do you think just one person can command it? I need a lot of Professional generals, I will provide the army and you will command it.

 “Would you miss an opportunity that could make me lose money?”

Aldarian frowned deeply. If there was no magic mirror, Amberxiu's words would be a lie. The elves would not be able to send people into the depths of the sea to lead troops for him.

 But with the magic mirror, things are different. The elves can really sit at home and remotely control the war, and there is really no risk at all.

More importantly, if Ryan also participates, the elves really need to see it.

By now, the elves have understood that the increasingly extreme Ryan is the real trouble. If Ryan does not collapse, there will definitely be a battle between Silver Moon Highgarden and Ryan. Coupled with the longevity of the elves, even if it is delayed for a hundred years, it will still be a "contemporary" war for the elves.

 Learn in advance and be prepared.

If we can understand the military intelligence of the Lane people in this battle, even just a little bit, it will be a pure benefit to the elves.

 But Aldarion was a little confused, would this lich be so kind?

Together with greed, he will definitely lose in front of this lich. Aldarion decided to trust his intuition and refused: "Silver Moon Highgarden is now closed and cannot help you fight. This is for political reasons. You don't want to do more." think."

Amber Xiu was a little surprised. How can this kid be so tolerant?

In Amber Xiu's plan, when he heard himself say this, Aldarion, the ambitious Elf King, would definitely be tempted. Even if he offered money, he would have to dig in. But this guy actually held back?

Amberxiu sighed and said helplessly: "If you don't listen to your good words, then I have nothing to do. Do you know that this sea area is a key area for the drow routes? It doesn't matter if you lose, I will let you Catherine took the drow to break through. I believe that with the protection of the Elf Queen, my route will still be safe. Even if it is besieged by millions of sea people, there should be no problem. "

When Ardalian heard this, he almost couldn't help but jump out of bed. He said angrily: "How dare you threaten me with sister Catherine?!"

Amberxiu smiled and said: "What are you talking about? It is your Elf God who lets Catherine take charge of the drow elves. What does this have to do with me? I just provided a plan to transform the drow elves into lawful ones. Al Darien, let me tell you the truth now, I want to decide this sea area. If you don’t help, I will ask Catherine to help. You can think about it yourself. "

Aldarion clenched his fists tightly. He really wanted to punch this shameless lich in person, but he could only grit his teeth and endure.

Now is not the time to break with the Lich. The elven gods did have a deal with him. Before completing this deal, Amberxiu seemed to have grasped the vital point of the elves. For the safety of Catherine, Aldarion could only do it no matter how reluctant he was. I can agree. Aldarian calmed down quickly. After all, he is the Elf King, and he must consider the overall situation in every move, so he quickly made a decision: "Okay, you wait, I will let someone make a new plan and give it to you."

Amberxiu said happily: "This is the right thing. We can definitely cooperate happily. What I say is true. Where can you elves find the opportunity to command hundreds of thousands of people in a war? If you don't fight for a long time, you will end up with something like this." You are addicted, why don't you correct it quickly? Besides, this time you have the opportunity to command me to charge into battle, don't waste this opportunity."

This last sentence made Aldarian grit his teeth and say: "Don't worry, I will definitely live up to your expectations."

 After saying this, Aldarian could no longer bear it and cut off the communication with the magic mirror.

Ai Ge praised and said: "You are so powerful. Now the three kingdoms will do their best to provide you with combat plans, and even provide senior generals for remote command."

Amberxiu said: "That's not enough. I will create a large chat group later and let them debate each other face to face. Unclean Ode, Ryan, Silvermoon Highgarden, plus us and the people from the mermaid side, everyone will They can communicate face to face. Tieflings hate Ryan so much that they will definitely make things difficult for them in every detail. The elves of Silver Moon Highgarden must not lose face to others, so the three countries will definitely quarrel.

“They will dig each other out and come up with all kinds of traps that we can’t think of. With the addition of the mermaids as technical advisors, the tactics at that time will be as close to perfect as possible.”

Ai Ge imagined how these people would scold each other thousands of kilometers or even across the plane, and was slightly looking forward to it. This scene was really rare in a thousand years.

But Ai Ge quickly asked: "Then what do we still lack now?"

Amberxiu said: "I guess there are at least two important things missing. The first one is of course regular troops. Even if we deceive a large group of senior generals to help command, where will the small soldiers come from to command them? Silent Night Pirates Group All together, there are only a few soldiers, which is not enough to support the entire battle. "

 “Military strength…this is not difficult.”

Amberxiu nodded and said, "Yes, after all, we are undead."

What the undead are best at is the human sea tactic. It is not difficult to create a large number of low-level undead in a short time, as long as there are enough materials.

 If that doesn’t work, you can also borrow it from Apoptotic Rose.

But this is a story for another day. The undead in the Underdark may not be suitable for naval battles. In this regard, it is better for Amber Xiu to do it himself.

"In addition to the basic troops, we also need a general with sufficient weight. The Lions, Tieflings, and Elves. These three races are all arrogant and cannot work together. The war is changing rapidly, and it is impossible to act completely according to the plan. Then There will definitely be conflicts.

“I don’t like to just quarrel for several days, so we need a marshal who can unify everyone at critical moments and ensure the implementation of tactics.”

Ai Ge felt embarrassed when he heard this: "There can't be such a person."

Tieflings and Lion have a blood feud. The elves are so proud that everyone knows that it is impossible for one person to press their heads at the same time to express their agreement.

unless…

Aige looked at Amberxiu and couldn't help but said: "It seems that only you can do it."

Amber Xiu had just put on a show, and the top leaders of the three countries had to bow to Amber Xiu. This was not a form of oppression by force, but Amber Xiu had really grasped everyone's weaknesses and could do whatever they wanted. Do.

With this ability, when the war begins, Amberxiu will definitely be able to convince everyone, and he will be able to obey orders and prohibitions, and his own people will not start fighting first.

 But Amberxiu shook his head and said, "It's not difficult to make them obey, but if I can't tell which suggestion is appropriate when they quarrel, I won't be able to give orders even if I can persuade them."

This is the biggest problem for Amber Xiu. He has never been a soldier in his life. When he was an adventurer, he had dozens of top commanders, and it was only an hour or two of adventure. He has no military talent and has never studied, so he is really not qualified for the job of marshal.

 “Who are we looking for?” Ai Ge asked doubtfully.

Amberxiu pondered and said: "It doesn't need to be that the other party has strong military talent. It just needs to be better than me and an expert who has learned the basics of military affairs. And it needs to have the ability to convince everyone..."

 That peerless face appeared in Amberxiu's mind.

 There is no more suitable candidate than Catherine, right?
