Everyone knows that time is tight and everyone knows the importance of unity at this juncture. The vanguards of Gambis and the Dodo Kingdom are on the border of the Sasan Empire south central region. Above is a spectacle of orc war.

The decision by King Victor and Dodo actually took a considerable political risk. The main reinforcements of the Kingdom of Gambis have been deployed. The 50,000 elites of the Dodo Kingdom have gathered in the Whitewater Fortress. Every day the army is delayed, Dodian's supply pressure will be greater, and the vanguard reinforcements cannot quickly detect the enemy and eliminate the orcs on the eastern defense line of Sasan. In the early tasks of entrenched forces, the military risks borne by the main reinforcements have also increased.

In other words, regardless of whether Fridos took the initiative to find the door, Victor and Lora must lead the vanguard to the eastern defense line of the Sasan Empire within twenty days.

Victor believes in the overall situation of the Patriarch Fridos. He believes that with his strong style he will not sit back and watch the vanguard and reinforcements of the two kingdoms hesitate. He also judged that he could not tolerate the four highnesses carrying the church. Plan what crafty plots and machinations.

The Patriarch Flides did come, but his performance was not as overbearing as Victor had expected. After some exchanges, he vaguely pointed out the intention of the two southern kingdoms and the four. His Royal Highness reached the most basic consensus and thus grasped the initiative of the conversation.

Victor believes that he cannot be led by the nose by the patriarch, and must have a conversation at a predetermined rhythm.

"When I discussed the tenant system with Bishop Pierot of Centaur Hills, he first clarified a principle on behalf of the church cardinal." Victor said slowly: "Tenancy tenants are not the subjects of the lord, they have the right Freedom to leave the territory."

There is nothing wrong with this principle. It relies on the three major obligations of Knight protection, priest salvation, and public dedication. Denying the principle of tenant freedom is tantamount to denying the legitimacy of Knight's noble rule. In practical applications, if the lord’s army cannot effectively protect the people, they will of course evacuate to a safe rear. Victor's tenant system emphasizes that the people are the wealth of the lord. Only by maintaining a considerable population size can the machine of war continue to operate. Therefore, the principle of tenant freedom does not conflict with his vision.

As for whether the tenants are willing to stick to the war territory, whether they are willing to return after the war, it depends on the lord’s personal charm and governance level.

Employing Legion does not accept the principle of tenant freedom. They took the lord’s money and distributed the wealth of the territory in another form. They must abide by the obligation of protection and participate in the battle in the name of the lord.

Fridos' eyes narrowed, he didn't expect Victor to discuss the basic principles of the tenancy system with him instead of making his request.

"Yes. On this point, the Church Cardinal approved unanimously. I, Clement, and Tamor have all signed their names on the tenant system documents." The old patriarch nodded said without hesitation. .

Victor pondered for a moment, and said with a confused expression: "We were on the way across the Wharton Prairie. The dust falcon I tamed found dozens of refugees. They lacked supplies and weapons, and were being confronted by a prairie wolf. Human attack. We killed the gang of jackals and originally wanted to escort the refugees to the nearest prairie holy city, but they refused our kindness and declared that they would be sent back to the Sasan Empire territory when they arrived in the prairie holy city... They found a tribe of nomads on the prairie and settled them, so we got lost and entered Lord Fahran by mistake."

Lost? Still strayed in? Can you not mention being lost... You are lost, are we lost too?

Duke Dietrich cursed in his heart, Lora lost his way before, Victor strayed in, one of them is the youngest golden Dame, the other is underage Sun Elf, the ages add up to nowhere. He is old. As a Golden Knight in his 70s, he really shouldn't get lost or strayed into it.

Frids nodded said: "Well, the chaplain of the Vanguard Reinforcement Army of Gambis has passed the experience of two His Royal Highnesses helping refugees and getting lost and entering Lord Fahran with the red-eyed letter crow. I'm here."

This...this...this, these two guys are really lost...The bald Golden Knight touched the back of his head, right now covering his face.

"Yes. When our Iron Wall Knight regiment was crossing the prairie, we also found refugees trying to move south, but the military situation was urgent, so we did not dare to delay." Guardian Du Nklu of Dodo Royal Family Nodded and glanced at Duke Dietrich, indifferently said: "This time, Dietrich and I led Knight of the Iron Wall to inspect the distribution of orc slaves on the eastern defense line and the edge of Sasan's hinterland. It happened to be strayed. The vanguard of Cambis, led by Lord Fahlan."

Duke Dietrich was calmly nodded, and gave Dunkru a thumbs up in his heart.

Deserving to be King Friedrich’s Uncle, the grand prince of the previous generation of the Dodo kingdom, this face is thicker than the city wall of the Whitewater Fortress.

Victor and Lora glanced at each other, raised their volume slightly, and asked with a bit of questioning: "We are very surprised, why didn’t the Patriarch organize the Sasan free people to pass through the business roads of the Holy City of Prairie. Go to the Southern Kingdom to escape the flames of war?"

The Patriarch Fridos did not directly respond to Victor’s questioning. He turned his head and ruled warrior instructed to two twins not far away: Your majesty, take a look."

The warrior on the left unwrapped the long wooden tube on his back and took out a four-foot-long animal skin scroll from it. I saw that his wrist flicked and the scroll straightened out. , The other side was caught by the ruling warrior on the right. The two brothers cooperate tacitly, just like the same person, and their simple movements have a special rhythmic beauty. However, any two Knights can achieve this level of cooperation, but Lora shines with beautiful eyes, stands up to applaud, and exclaims: "Wow, great... Norton, Noah, the two Masters are so handsome."

Norton and Noah brother are the guards of the Patriarch of Flydes. The relationship between them is like Tornance and Pope Clement, or the Patriarch of Cantwert and Tamor. These four high-level Paladins are also fierce warriors who ignite the fire of the soul. Among them, Tornance has the highest achievement; Cantweet, who is the Initial Mastery soul touch, is second; Norton and Noah brother are the last, but they are in Golden Knight's In the small circle, it is famous.

It is said that the twin brothers are connected with each other. No matter how far apart they are, they can perceive each other’s position and state. .

Well, this is very interesting, like a trick.

Lora has actually been staring at them a long time ago. She has always been very clever in the Patriarch of Flydes and took the initiative to explain to him that she has lost her way. Now she touts Norton Brother, the purpose of course is to watch Performance.

Sure enough, Crown Princess’s eyes are as beautiful as Bihu’s starlight, with fingers interlocking, and she asked softly: “I heard that two Masters can read the letter by one person and read by the two, is it true? Ah?"

Lora's expression is a mixture of innocence, sincerity, coquettishness, admiration, curiosity and desire. It is both beautiful and cute. Even Victor can't bear to refuse her request.

The twin brothers grabbed the map and said separately:

"We are not juggling."

"So we don't perform."

Lora's delicate face suddenly collapsed, and Victor also felt regretful.

The keen and intuitive innate talent of the alchemy warrior can achieve a tacit understanding of combat, which is similar to the spiritual communication of Norton brother, but it is not magical. The homunculus soul fire has the same origin, and no matter how close the soul of twin is, it is impossible to reach this level. Norton Brother apparently practiced a special Meditation Method, and their spiritual resonance surpassed the innate talent of the alchemy warrior's keen intuition.

If Norton Brother’s rumors are true, Victor would be more interested in the Meditation Method pioneered by the church.

Although the scope of application of spiritual resonance is very narrow, after all, violent twins are extremely rare, but this kind of spiritual bloodline secret method is very valuable to Alchemy Tower No.7. Victor doesn't expect the alchemy militia loaded with related skills to achieve the magical effect of Norton Brother, as long as he can replicate half of the innate talent of keen intuition, he is very satisfied.

The Patriarch of Frederick lightly coughed, walked to the expanded map, pointed to the position of the pioneering defense line, and said: "Emperor Frederick and the head of Tstil The border line of defense draws the main force of the Sasan Empire, Legion, and the 7 Templars to form a coalition of 230,000 people. They are stationed to open up the front line of defense. There are two main considerations."

"First, deter the six centaur tribes. Let them not dare to covet the human pioneers, forcing them to consume each other on the territories of the original Blackhoof tribe."

"The early construction and construction of the pioneering defenses are all responsible for the human coalition, as the imperial army continues to invest , We have successfully deterred the centaur bandits and inspired the lords and the people’s confidence to open up their territories. Sasan Empire moved a total of 550,000 freedmen to the pioneers, and nearly 800,000 people completed three new cities and more than 20 castles in three years The construction of the country and the realization of self-sufficiency in food."

"Second, the coalition originally planned to wait for the centaur tribe to be exhausted, and then attack from the pioneering leader, and do their best to severely damage the centaur tribe and not give them A chance to reach a balance. In this way, the orc tribe east of the centaur will begin to stir them. The scene of the orcs fighting with each other will continue to repeat."

Fridos was silent for a moment and shook his head and said: "The coalition forces did not take the initiative to attack. Logically, the Centaur tribes impossible united. They suddenly united and launched a full-scale raid on the pioneer. Except for the orc king, we really can't think of the second possibility."

"It seems that our original decision was wrong." The old patriarch said frankly.

"...Wait."

Lora moved forward, pointed at three markers on the map, and asked: "Giant Tree City, Bright City, and Crystal City are three New City? Crystal City and Giant Tree City are so close, Bright City is so far away from them, and there is a large blank space in the middle. This is a huge loophole for the entire pioneering defense line... When you first chose the site to build the city, What do you think?"

On the map, the pioneering defense line built on the three new cities runs north-south. The Crystal City in the north and the Bright City in the middle are closer, and the defense system is tighter. Support, and the Crystal City is located at the southernmost end of the defense line, close to the mountain range of boulders, it is simply an isolated city. Even if Crystal City moves to the middle position, the gap in the defense line will not be so big.

In other words, three new cities were enough to open up the front line of defense. Now another city must be built to fill the loopholes in the line of defense.

Fridos explained: "Giant tree, Guangming and Crystal City are all relics of the Iron Mountain Empire. They were originally located at the rear of the Iron Mountain Empire. They were not defensive fortresses at all, but resource towns. The giant tree city is close to the primitive forest, there are iron mines around Bright City, and the crystal city is currently the largest white crystal mining area... The Iron Mountain Empire collapsed, and these three cities were reduced to the nests of wild beasts, and finally fell into the black hoof half. In the hands of the centaur, their city wall was damaged by the orcs, but the base of the city wall is still intact, and the church array in the center of the town can also be repaired. We built giant trees and Bright City on the sites of these three abandoned cities. And Crystal City, otherwise, we would also be impossible to build three new cities within three years."

Lora nodded, pointing to the blank area between Crystal City and Bright City, said: "Sidon half-man Ma Dajun gathers in this place, and they can rush into the Sasan Empire at any time."

"What?!" Duke Dietrich of the Dodo Kingdom stepped forward and solemnly asked: "The centaur can't hold on. Why don’t they retreat? They chose to rush into the Sasan Empire. Isn’t this bring about one's own destruction?"

Lora turned her head, bared out a sharp little tiger tooth, and said with a smile, "Bald uncle, The Sidonian half-man Ma Dajun retreat is really seeking destruction."

Victor immediately understood what Lora meant.

400,000 and a half people Ma Dajun gathered to open up the front line of defense, and to check each other with the main force of the human coalition. Their food supplies must be exhausted first, and it stands to reason that they should withdraw to the tribal territory for food. However, they have a large number of goblin slaves behind the human empire. If they are withdrawn in this way, many centaurs will still starve to death, not to mention the main force of the human coalition will take advantage of the momentum to pursue them.

All retreats are bound to be destroyed. The centaur can only be divided into two groups. The main force retreats to the tribal territory and rests; the other way breaks into the rear of the human empire and attracts the main force of the human coalition. , So that they can not chase down the retreat of the same clan.

This centaur may want to gather the goblin slaves, and then catch up with the retreating kinsmen, but the main force of the Radiance Knight regiment and Sasan Empire can make them run back to the lair with the slaves?

If they can’t get out, in what direction will they flee?

As long as they are in the Sasan Empire territory, they will be wiped out, but what if they run into the Wharton Prairie?

escape alive, developed and expanded, and cut off the connection between the Southern Kingdom and the Sasan Empire, and directly threatened the safety of the Dodo Kingdom.

The centaur doesn't know the way to the Wharton Prairie, but they will inevitably strike at places where there are many orc slaves. The ogre wanderers of Lord Fahran have proven that unarmed humans will attract orcs to stalk and hunt. Suppose that the patriarch of Flydes lets refugees descend from Bronze Halberd City, cross the Wharton Prairie, and enter the Southern Kingdom for refuge. Then, the more than one million orc slaves of the eastern defense line will lean toward the most densely populated Bronze Halberd City, forming large and small orc tribes, pointing out the direction of escape for the centaur raiders.

The bald uncle in Lora’s mouth is not concerned about the Nether Soul forest development point or the tenant system at this time. He touched the back of his head and sighed and said: "Crystal City...Oh, Lord Patriarch, you There is a plan."

A new fortress city can defend an area with a radius of 250 kilometers through the construction of castles, barracks, and sentries, and can monitor enemy movements within 350 kilometers in time. The two fortresses are separated by 450 kilometers, and the line of defense is stable. Crystal City is too far from Bright City, and there is a big gap in the middle. The half-man Ma Dajun breaks into the Sasan Empire at night, regardless of factors such as gathering slaves, collecting materials, detours, etc., with their maneuverability, they can break through in up to 20 days. Defending the emptiness of the Eastern Frontier, arrived at Bronze Halberd City, and then entered the endless Wharton Prairie.

The centaur is galloping in the prairie, how can we clean it up?

Even if the eastern frontier line of defense replenishes its troops, the garrison must keep abreast of the centaur’s movements in time to deploy troops in advance and implement the most powerful interception. Otherwise, the garrison of the line of defense alone cannot stop the concentrated centaur raiders. There is a big loophole in the development of the leading defense line. The frontline scouts cannot monitor the Centaur Ma Dajun in real time. It is possible to be killed by the Centaur in time.

The Radiance Knight regiment built the Crystal City at the beginning, and even if it moved 200 kilometers northward when selecting the site, it would not be what it is now.

However, building a new fortress city in three years is undoubtedly an idiotic dream. The Radiance Knight group abandoned the former site of Crystal City and built a new city in the middle. At this time, half of their main force had been annihilated by the half-man Ma Dajun. From this perspective, the construction of the Crystal City by the Radiance Knights is really the shelter of the Lord of Radiance.

The two Highnesses of the Kingdom of Dodo now only hope that the Patriarch Fridos and the Chief Testil will make the most secure plan for the current hidden problems.

Freds admires nodded at Lora Augustus Princess. Humans have not had a full-scale war with the orcs for more than 1,400 years. The transcender leaders, including himself, have always had a stupid prejudice against the orcs. When the Centaur War broke out, he and Testil began to consider all the probabilities. Lora only glanced at the War Zone map and immediately pointed out the worst situation.

Dietrich and Turnkrew looked at more than one glance. After all, Golden Knight didn’t react too slowly... Flidds thought secretly, teasing and said: "The two majesty leads the iron wall I’m not surprised that the Knight regiment moved south."

Dietrich gave a Knight salute, and responded unceremoniously: "Your Patriarch, you say that now, I’m surprised. "

The twin brothers glared at Dodo's bald-headed majesty, but Flides laughed, "The Duke of Barcelius is now the commander of the Eastern Defense Line. I can't interfere with his deployment."

The Knights of the Iron Wall entered the eastern defensive line of the Sasan Empire, and they were not under the command of Barcelius, but they were also closer to Barcelius, who led the army. After all, the Sasan Imperial Family has only a few thousand garrisons, and without the Golden Knight, it cannot form an equivalent military support with the main reinforcements of the Dodo Kingdom.

Turn Kruel grabbed Dietrich’s arm, threw an apologetic look at Victor, and said solemnly: "Your Excellency, our 45,000 cavalry in the Whitewater Fortress will immediately start pulling out, and then we will allocate them later. 15,000 infantry support the eastern defense line. The southern section of the defense line is handed over to us, and we only ask the Sasan Imperial Family to provide food supplies."

Freds nodded said with a smile: "No problem, Even if the production of green wheat in the entire Sasan Empire ceases and millions of people stay in the empire, we still have 4 and a half years of food reserves."

Dodian will work hard, Victor understands that they took the initiative to give up cooperation. Benefits, he doesn't care much. Flides obviously didn't want too much population exodus, and Cambis couldn't swallow too much population. The Kingdom of Dodo does not participate in the population distribution, and Flides is more likely to compromise with Gambis.

As for the Dodo King's Council will not go back and secretly intercept the population, Victor does not consider it.

Unless they don't even want the development point of the Nether Soul forest.

The corner of Victor's eyes swept across Crown Princess with a boring expression, recalling Sylvia's evaluation of her in his mind:

Lora's Sword Art is nowhere to be found.

With her sword, Dodian was out.
