The atmosphere in the town of Moramachi was surprisingly harmonious. Fernando talked enthusiastically. In fact, Anfei had expected that Fernando would not adopt an aggressive attitude. This was the first time that the other party had come into contact with a large number of mercenaries. If he talked with mercenaries, If they turn against each other, it will have an irreversible impact on future development. Fernando will not even think of this.
When the guests and hosts were seated, Fernando insisted on letting An Fei sit in the main seat, repeatedly stating that An Fei was the owner here, and also wanted to give the chief guest seat to Chris. The two refused for a long time before Fernando reluctantly sat down. Go down.
Afterwards, Fernando focused his attention on Alice. Anfei, Ernest, Entos and others had already introduced each other outside the town, but Alice was a new face. It is undeniable that without Susanna, Alice has naturally become the only center of attention for men. Whether it is her beauty or graceful and elegant temperament, they have a strong attraction, not to mention Fernando, the leader who must understand the situation in detail. Moreover, even the priests and high-ranking light knights were secretly admiring Alice from time to time.
"Master An Fei, this lady is..." Fernando asked softly.
"This is Miss Alice, my assistant and the actual manager of Mora March Town." An Fei said with a smile: "It is all her credit that Mora March Town can reach its current scale. "
"It's surprising. I didn't expect that your ability is as outstanding as your appearance." Fernando showed admiration: "I heard the bard say before that the gods are always fair. They will not favor anyone in particular. Once you have it, One thing will lose another thing at the same time. For a woman, intelligence and beauty often cannot coexist, haha... If there is a chance, I will suggest them to come to the town of Mora March to see Miss Alice."
"You're really flattering." Alice smiled appropriately.
"No, no, I am telling the truth." Fernando smiled and said: "Those bards are too naive. In fact, I think the gods have never been fair. Some people are born as nobles, and some are not. They are slaves who have been deprived of their freedom. Some people have excellent moral character and personality, such as Mr. An Fei, and you, the beautiful Miss Alice, while others..." Fernando suddenly clapped his hands.
The door was pushed open, and several Fernando's guards pushed two people in. Fernando sneered and said: "It's hard to find any advantages in them. I'm really surprised how they became the Knights of Light!"
The two people who were pushed in had already knelt down, their faces full of timidity. One of them was Martin and the other was Hilde.
"Mr. Fernando, what are you..." An Fei asked in surprise.
"Master An Fei. I know that the issue of how to arrange the legion's large baggage has brought you a lot of trouble, but I believe that as long as we can understand each other. There is nothing that cannot be discussed, but they are doing whatever they want with my letter. Not only did it have a very bad influence, it also left a rift between you and me. I cannot tolerate this behavior!" Fernando said slowly: "I will leave these two people to you. No matter what you want to do I won’t interfere if you do it, it’s your right.”
"Forget it. Mr. Fernando, it's not a big deal." An Fei said with a smile: "To be honest, these mercenaries under me also have unshirkable responsibilities. They are all rough people, and it is inevitable that they will not consider the etiquette well. It caused some unnecessary misunderstandings. Moreover, I am also responsible. I have never managed so many people, and there are almost no relevant rules. If you must punish them, then I should also be punished."
"You are such a magnanimous person..." Fernando thought for a while and said coldly to Martin and Hilde: "Don't you two want to say something?"
"Thank you, Mr. Anfei." Martin said hurriedly.
"Thank you, Mr. Anfei." Hilde's tone was somewhat unwilling.
"Get out." Fernando waved his hand, then turned to An Fei and smiled: "Master An Fei, eradicating those putrid undead creatures is the goal of all humans. I don't want the unpleasantness that happened to affect our cooperative relationship."
"I know and I believe that no one wants to see their home occupied by undead creatures."
"I feel relieved when you say that." Fernando smiled and said, "You guys should retreat first."
The bright knights and priests belonging to Fernando's side stood up one after another and slowly left the conference room. Only one high-ranking knight stayed, took out a map and spread it on the table. However, Fernando did not ask any of the mercenaries to leave. This low posture had a certain easing effect. The eyes of Ozguch and others looking at Fernando were no longer so hostile.
"What I'm going to talk about now is a bit surprising to everyone.
Logically speaking, we should talk about it tomorrow, but... No, Bingguishen soldiers had many conflicts with small groups of undead on the road. Now those necromancers should know that the Shield of Light Legion has entered the mercenary country. Before they react, we must create the greatest results! "Fernando took the crystal wand handed over by the superior knight and slid it on the map: "I have made an attack plan. I want to ask everyone's opinions and find out the shortcomings in the plan. "
Ozguch and others looked at each other and turned their attention to the map. The mercenary country is their home. Just like An Fei said just now, no one wants to see their home being destroyed by a group of undead creatures. To occupy, in the past, we had no strength and could only defend passively. Now that we have reinforcements, of course we must do our best.
"These red circles are the last fortresses of mankind. Not counting Blackwater City, White Mountain City, and Mora March Town, thirty-seven such fortresses have been discovered temporarily. However, what is worrying is that after such a long battle, , their attrition is very serious, and in some places there are only a few hundred mercenaries left who can fight."
"How did you get this map?" An Fei asked in surprise. Fernando was able to tell the specific number of those mercenaries, which proved that they had undergone careful investigation, but in an area dominated by undead creatures, investigation was simply impossible!
"This is all thanks to Lord Mangshu's great help." Fernando said with a smile.
"Insighter Eagle King Mang Shu?"
"Yes." Fernando nodded: "Before I got this map, I had formulated two combat plans. One was to march from the exit of the deep valley across the Mao Empire, using the town of Mora March as a supply base. Slowly clear out those undead creatures, but I don't know how long you can hold on. Lord Buzuliano said that as long as you are here, the town of Mora March will never fall, haha... I was always a little doubtful at the time. There is another plan, which is to lead the Bright Shield Legion to advance into the Shansha Empire and launch an attack from the Hengduan Valley at the other end of the Shansha Empire. Although this will take a big circle, it is relatively safe and is far away from Baishan City. The straight-line distance is also relatively short.”
"Then why didn't you adopt the second plan?" An Fei asked softly.
"That plan was strongly opposed by His Majesty Julande and Marshal Beeri." Fernando smiled, and there was something in his eyes that people couldn't see clearly.
In fact, anyone with a little bit of savvy knows that Fernando's second plan is just a dream. The troops of the Shield of Light Legion come from the Tumen Business Alliance and the Blacknia City Border Guards. Germany's strategic purpose is to control the continent's energy lifeline after the war and lay the foundation for unification. In this case, Juland never wants the two-party coalition to turn into a tripartite coalition. Pope William wanted to open up a diocese and expand the influence of the church, and he did not want to see another person sharing the cake, so Fernando's plan was destined to fail.
But Fernando is the actual commander of the war. As the saying goes, a mute eats Coptis chinensis and cannot speak out his sufferings. He knows what kind of influence he has on the Shield of Light Legion. At critical moments, except for the Knights of Light and the Priests, Besides, he can't command anyone. From Fernando's point of view, he hopes that the composition of the legion will be more complex. If the army of the Shansha Empire is also expanded, he can make checks and balances and consolidate his position. Although doing so feels like playing with fire, it is better than being in name only. Much better.
It is a pity that his idea cannot be recognized by Julande, nor can he get the support of Pope William. He is not the only great knight in the church. If he reveals all his difficulties to Pope William, the only thing waiting for him is to be replaced, because his His ability has disappointed His Majesty the Pope.
An Fei thought for a while and asked: "So, where do you want to start the attack?" He understood something. No matter how good Fernando's military and political qualities were, he was destined to miss the famous general. On the contrary, He can only be a scapegoat. The so-called famous general is not that easy to become. Not only does it require the right time, location, and harmony, but it also requires a pair of free wings, which Fernando lacks.
"From here." Fernando pointed with the crystal rod: "Because our goal is not only to destroy the undead creatures, but also to rescue all mercenaries who fight independently. This route is the closest and fastest."
"What do you think?" An Fei's eyes fell on Ozgucci and others.
Ozguch and others hesitated for a long time and nodded slowly. In fact, they could not fully understand this kind of military map. How to destroy the undead creatures was only the second goal. Their most important thing was to rescue all their companions as soon as possible, and Fernando's words It goes to their hearts.
