Leiyunbao.


    The conference room in the Duke''s castle was already noisy.


    "Ladies and gentlemen, I think we need a strong fight back. This is the land of the Kingdom, not the place where the black bastards come and go all the time..."


    "According to the intelligence, the black bastards just sent a small group of troops into the country. When the army of leiyunbao arrived at the border, the black bastards had already run away..."


    "Baron Stanley, do you mean we sit here and do nothing?"


    "The training time of the new recruits planned by the Duke is four months. At present, the training has not been completed. If the soldiers are sent to the front in a hurry, it will only increase the casualties in vain..."


    "Is this a conspiracy of black bastards? Deliberately transfer the troops of leiyunbao, and then raid leiyunbao. Is not Dante castle, the capital of Dushan Kingdom, occupied like this


    "Baron Veblen, your concern is reasonable, but I don''t think the black Orc army can easily cross the wetland. Don''t forget, they are short of food..."


    The Duke of Castro, sitting at the head of the conference table, was silent all the time. His wandering eyes had no focus. He turned a deaf ear to the quarrels of the people and seemed to be thinking about something.


    At this time, the Duke suddenly stood up, the voice in the conference room suddenly subsided, and everyone''s eyes focused on him.


    It can be seen from this small detail that the Duke, known as "thunder Hawk", has a high prestige, especially in the military field. His opinions are very important, and no one can ignore them.


    The Duke coughed and looked around the table with his fierce eyes. No one dared to look at him where he could.


    Then he spoke slowly and said:


    "no matter whether the black bastard will leave, the border must be rescued..."


    A middle-aged nobleman with a hooked nose moved his body and seemed to want to raise an objection.


    The Duke glared coldly at the crooked nose and yelled:


    "because the presence of the army helps to stabilize people''s minds..."


    This reason is impeccable, and fully reflects the Duke''s experience. The eagle''s nose choked and speechless. He honestly closed his mouth, lowered his head and avoided the sight of the Duke.


    The Duke tapped on the table and said in a loud voice:


    "in addition, for the sake of safety, in the next month, all villages and towns within 50 kilometers of Nassau wetland must be evacuated."


    "When the civilians withdraw, they are not allowed to leave a grain of grain, the houses must be burned, the dead bodies of animals must be put into the wells, and the soil and stones must be used for landfill. It is not allowed to leave anything that can be used by the black orcs..."


    This is a strong wall and a clear field.


    There was an obvious commotion in the conference room. It was obvious that this order would harm the interests of many people, especially the nobles in some areas near the border, but they could not give sufficient reasons to oppose it.


    The Duke pressed down his hands to signal everyone to be quiet, and then he said solemnly:


    "I can tell you for sure that after the first attack, there will be a second attack, and the border will become more and more unsafe."


    "In addition, this war will last for a long time. Please do not have any illusions. Timely evacuation can reduce the losses..."


    After a moment''s silence in the conference room, a small nobleman suddenly raised his right hand and asked in a low voice:


    "your vision is admirable, Duke. It''s really necessary to evacuate the civilians near the border..."


    "However, I''m afraid that after those poor civilians leave their homes, even eating will become a problem. This is a very serious problem. If they can''t handle it properly, I''m afraid there will be a lot of tragedies. This is something we don''t want to see..."


    At this point, a heavy color appeared on the thin noble''s face.


    "Your Highness, I want to know how to resettle the evacuated civilians. After all, as you know, many lords have suffered serious losses. I''m afraid they can''t resettle the civilians..."


    The Duke secretly scolded that these greedy guys were "unable to resettle the civilians". They were clearly reluctant to pay. In the eyes of the nobles, the civilians who had been relocated had become a complete burden. They just wanted to get rid of the civilians.


    The Duke glanced at the little nobleman and said faintly:


    "Viscount Alfred, your worry is unnecessary. As far as I know, some people are willing to accept these civilians..."


    Viscount Alfred gave a dry smile, a look of conversation on his face.


    It can be seen that this guy didn''t care about the civilians who had left their hometown at all. He just wanted to make a problem for the Duke.


    What the duke said about "someone" is Renault.


    This is the Duke''s return.


    With his rich military experience, the Duke saw the real purpose of the black orcs at a glance.


    Sending a small group of troops straight to the villages and towns of human beings is not revenge?


    So the question is, why do black bastards do this?Jueji is the mysterious and extraordinary person of wind system, Mr. Renault, who angered the black orcs, which triggered the revenge.


    Almost in an instant, the Duke understood the cause and effect, and also understood Renault''s intention.


    There is no doubt that this is a special gift from Renault, a gift that can help him integrate his own interior.


    Since Renault''s timely help, the Duke of course has to give something back.


    In the past few days, the Duke''s intelligence network has made a thorough investigation of Renault''s deeds in the kingdom of thousand lakes. He has learned that the tide chamber of commerce is searching for slaves in Copernicus, and the amount of demand is so large that the Duke is extremely surprised.


    Although the territory of Qianhu kingdom is vast and sparsely populated, there are at least 20000 civilians within 50 kilometers of the wetland in the area in charge of the Duke, which can be packed and sent to Renault.


    What''s more wonderful is that the Duke doesn''t need to pay any price. It''s just generosity.


    For Renault, this group of civilians alone has given him enough reward for all his plans.


    So, in a silent exchange, the two old Yin than, tacit understanding reached a shady deal.


    After downplaying the problem of viscount Alfred, the Duke accentuated and solemnly said:


    "finally, I have a very important proposal, which needs your vote."


    "I think everyone should have noticed that we have been discussing this black Orc raid for nearly an hour, but we have not come to a conclusion. I think this kind of decision-making is extremely inefficient."


    "If a war breaks out, this will only delay the fight. At some critical moments, if we can''t come up with a practical plan in time, it may even lead to a complete failure of the war."


    "Therefore, I propose to set up a Supreme Council with a total number of five. All affairs of this noble coalition will be decided by the Council!"


    There was an uproar in the conference room.


    See you!


    It was the Duke''s plan.


    The more than 60000 noble private forces come from hundreds of territories, and the composition is extremely complex. Although Prince Castro''s strength is very strong, the forces under his direct command are only more than 3000, accounting for only 120% of the total number of coalition forces.


    Even if the Duke had a strong prestige, it was impossible to subdue everyone. During this period, the Duke was constrained by countless difficulties in the affairs of the Allied forces.


    Almost every business, the nobles had several different opinions. Every meeting began and ended in a quarrel. This situation had already exhausted the Duke.


    This time, with the help of Renault, the Duke began to seize power.


    It''s more difficult to control a five Member Council by means of the Duke. Moreover, he can put his own aristocrats in the Council. He is absolutely sure to control the coalition.


    If in peacetime, this proposal can never be passed, but the murder cases created by the black orcs at the border have made many nobles become frightened birds.


    At this time, Prince Castro, as the famous commander of the Kingdom, naturally became the biggest dependence in the eyes of most people, and his words would make many people listen to him involuntarily.


    In addition, the proposal is reasonable, and a simple and efficient decision-making body is necessary. Therefore, the Duke''s plan will not encounter too much resistance.
