Bickley was a sensible person, and he didn't think that Dane, who was still drinking with him two days ago, didn't see him because he had some opinions on him, so he must be really busy.
Therefore, he was very considerate and did not continue to disturb, leaving a message that he wanted to go back to Shawan Port, and left.
It didn't take long for this message to reach Dane's ears.
Dane, who was standing at the top of the military conference room with a large map of Schindler hanging behind his back, didn't pay any attention to this trivial matter. He waved his hand, and after driving away the guards who came to deliver the message, he turned his head and continued to say to Chapple, who was sitting at the front among the few people sitting in front of him: "Of course, this may not be able to completely To curb the deterioration of the situation, but at least there is such a possibility, and if the situation is really irreversible, our arrangement can better grasp the initiative."
"But..." Chapple still has some concerns, he said: "The risk of us doing this is still very high, maybe, the war that may be calmed down by then will be pushed to the point where it has to break out because of our big actions , which is not in line with the strategic situation we expect.”
"Heh..." Dane shook his head and chuckled, and continued, "I'd rather push Schindler into the flames of war with my own hands, than sit here passively waiting for the situation to change."
Chapple said: "Okay, then do it according to your ideas. I will do my best to do everything well."
Dane turned his gaze to the others and didn't speak, but the meaning was already conveyed very clearly.
Everyone stood up: "Die for the lord!"
…
If Bickley had seen the candidates for the meeting chaired by Dane, I'm afraid he wouldn't have left so early. From Dane himself who presided over the meeting, the Big Three except Velina who will be sitting in Shawan Harbor and will not be able to return for a while, Chapple and Patience are all there; After the death of the first alliance captain Quincy, the new successor captain - Geb, the second alliance captain Delin, and the military leader of the third alliance that has not yet been established but is already in the plan Officer—Pearl, Patience's former adjutant.
Seeing the specifications of the participants, anyone with a keen eye can tell that these are almost all the most important military officers under Dane's influence, and their work is very heavy and busy. There are very few opportunities to get together for a meeting, and once they all gather together with serious faces, it almost means that the south of Schindler will soon undergo earth-shaking changes.
The fact is indeed the case, Dane gathered his capable subordinates together, and one of the most important work arrangements was to march to Iron Nail Hill!
Tiedinggang is the southernmost point of Kangli's sphere of influence, and it is also Kangli's bridgehead in the south.
As a town, Tiedinggang is far away from the adjective 'rich'. Apart from a slightly larger population, there is nothing special about it. However, that place is a very important military location.
For Conley, if he wants to attack Dane, Nail Hill is his forward base. Whether it is to send troops from Iron Nail Hill, whether it is to fight to White Wolf Fort, or to fight at Shawan Port, he can choose according to his choice. Dane, on the other hand, will fall into a difficult situation.
To be reasonable, if there is no map module, Tiedinggang is really an iron nail very close to his heart, which can be pierced towards his heart at any time.
If Dane wants to further strengthen the military security situation in the south of Schindler, this iron nail is what he must pull out; at the same time, if Conley wants to maintain the containment of Dane's forces, control Dane from If it expands from south to north and west, Tiedinggang is also a place that must not be abandoned. Because, once Iron Spike Hill is in Dane's hands, Governor Conley's territory in the middle and west of Schindler will be directly exposed to his soldiers, which is extremely dangerous.
Under such a situation, if Dane marched like Tiedinggang, he would be met with the most powerful response from Governor Kang Li, and he would be counterattacked with all his strength.
Entering the Iron Nail Hill, this is a matter that must be cautious before making a decision. At the meeting, Dane emphasized that he must launch an attack on Iron Nail Hill, but it was a last resort.
He would not know that such a move would be contrary to his strategic goals. As long as he attacked Iron Nail Harbor, it would very likely provoke a full-scale counterattack from Governor Conley, thus making Schindler's The South detonated the all-out war.
But it doesn't matter now. Because, if Dane doesn't do something else, no matter if he can't beat the big nail hill, all-out war may break out in the near future.
Compared to the south of Schindler, the place that is more like a powder keg is the Ice Cave City in the north.
The war there has been going on for several months, and both sides were quite nervous at first, for fear that it would become the fuse of an all-out war. However, thanks to the efforts of all parties, the situation in the north seems to show signs of improvement in the past week or two. Many news from the north mentioned that the fighting in the Ice Cave City has become more peaceful, and it even seems to have stopped.
This should have been a pretty good thing, especially for Dane. He is very happy to see that the battle in Ice Cave City has become stable, or even completely stopped, so as to delay the speed of the all-out war, so that he can have more time to develop.
Oz probably thought so too.
However, Governor Conley seems to have other ideas. He seems to be reluctant to see the fact that Ice Cave City is gradually cooling down.
A few days ago, Dane received a tip that Governor Conley's army seemed to be moving on a large scale. At that time, Dane was already nervous. Although he wasn't able to accurately guess what Conley was going to do at the time, it didn't affect his preparations for it.
The day before yesterday, he had already issued an order to require the regular army under his command to gather troops secretly in case of emergency.
But today, after he officially received the more detailed information, he was extremely grateful for his caution earlier—the information mentioned that, yesterday morning, Governor Kangli had 20,000 soldiers around the city of confusion, and made a request to Ice Cave City's advance!
