The person who came from the Blood Fortress was a middle-aged officer named Hader with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. He seemed calm and honest.
The reason why Harder traveled such a long distance to Iron Spike Hill was of course that he had a very important mission: to find out what Dane was thinking, and to urge Dane to continue to go north to put pressure on Conley's forces.
If you want to say what Ou Ze is most afraid of now, there are only two things. One is that the situation in Ice Cave City is rapidly deteriorating, and the other is that Dane has an affair with Governor Conley.
If Ice Cave City is really rotten, it will have a serious impact on the power of Governor Oze, but there is always a way to think about it. Anyway, he is going to have a big battle with Kangli's core army. The change of Ice Cave City will make the situation worse, but it is not hopeless.
But if Dane really sided with Governor Conley, then Oze would have nothing to do.
In terms of the total strength of Ou Ze, there may still be some gaps compared with Governor Conley. Facing the north, Kang Li pulled up the army with a total strength of nearly 40,000. He tried his best, but the army of just over 30,000 was already the limit. He was counting on Dane to help him draw part of Kangli's power in the south.
Conley is in the south. No matter how badly he was beaten by Dane, there is still a main force in Cinderella. This force is not weak, although they cannot be sent out of the city to fight Dane. One game, but there is still no problem in defending Cinderella. Moreover, further south, although the strength of the Heka Tim Legion is not very strong, it is still a force.
However, facing the northern army of Galvin and Anders, Oze tried his best and still felt that there was not enough troops. How could there be troops in the south to guard against Dane
If Dane strikes back at this critical moment, Governor Oze really doesn't know what to do. At that time, let alone whether Ice Cave City can be managed, he honestly returns to Beast Blood Castle, not knowing whether he can defend his lair.
It is precisely because of this that it is very clear what Governor Oze is nervous about.
When Dane saw Harder, he could clearly feel the nervousness of the lieutenant colonel in front of him.
"I know what Governor Oze is worried about." Dane didn't bother to greet, and said straight to the point: "However, please tell Governor Oze when you go back, what he is worried about will not happen. I can't, and I will never Whoever makes any deal with Conley, he will always be our common enemy."
Harder looked very relieved when he heard this. According to his mission, when he saw Dane, he could hear such a resounding assurance from the first sentence of Dane's mouth, why would he not be happy
There are still.
In the chaotic land of Schindler, any verbal guarantees are unreliable. Although, Dane doesn't seem to have any particularly bad records in this regard. But the matter is very important, Harder can't just believe it just because Dane moved his lips up and down casually.
But then again, what else could Harder say? Dane has already promised so.
However, Harder remembered that before he came, Governor Ozer's adjutant, Knight Elder, had told him to stay by Dane's side no matter what.
Of course, this is not to make Harder fight for Dane. His main purpose of staying with Dane is of course to facilitate nearby surveillance. If, once it is discovered that Dane really has signs of having an affair with Conley, he must immediately try his best to report the news.
So, after Dane made the promise, Hader complimented him while finding an opportunity to put forward his idea of staying.
Dane couldn't refuse.
He's not stupid, can't he guess the meaning of surveillance? It's very simple not to let Hader stay, a casual sentence can drive him and all the people he brought out of Nail Hill. But the question is, what will Ou Ze think after this
can only stay.
However, Dane also has a way.
After sending Gnar to take charge of Harder himself, Dane immediately found the high-level mage, Joel, and high-level priest Esther who followed him from White Wolf Castle to Iron Spike Hill.
Mage Joel is the host of the mage tower of White Wolf Castle. For this expedition, since the two workshops of Aurinadu have to start work at the same time, Easterlin has no choice but to stay in Aurianadu to help Come here, but Dane must have a higher-level mage on standby, so he brought Joel with him.
The purpose of finding these two casters is of course to solve Hader's problem.
"He can't die, and we can't let him notice our real actions. I need you to use the power of magic, whether it's arcane or divine, to control him and confuse him. Can you do it?"
After listening to Dane's order, the two looked at each other, and Joel said, "I have no problem."
"Me neither." Esther followed.
"Okay." Dane was very satisfied with their answers, and he continued: "Then I will leave this matter to you, and it must be sent to Janice's envoy from the north within two days. before the regiment arrives.”
As for the two spellcasters under him, Dane didn't care what kind of method they would come up with to deal with Harder. He only needed to get a final result.
After dealing with Hader's matter, Dane began to wait for Janice's arrival peacefully. Although he had already thought of the purpose of the envoy sent by Governor Conley, he still needed to hear for himself what the famous woman would say.
It's just that sometimes things don't go so smoothly.
The most beautiful thing in Dane's mind is to sit at Iron Nail Hill with peace of mind and watch Kang Li and Ou Ze fight to the death in the north. However, the day before Janice entered the city, he received an urgent report:
"The northern army of Galvin and Anders broke through the gate of the Ice Cave City a day ago. The vanguard of the Beast Blood Fort Legion was wiped out. The main force of Governor Oze is still three days away from the Ice Cave City. I'm afraid it will be difficult to recapture the city in a short time."
This is not good news. If the Ice Cave City is still in a state of being contested by both sides, then there is indeed a good show to watch in the north. But now, Kangli has won the Ice Cave City, and the situation has changed drastically in an instant.
In the decisive battle that followed, there was a large city at the back, and Kangli's army had an advantage in strength. Before this decisive battle even started, Ou Ze had already fallen into a comprehensive disadvantage!
Worst of all, this happened just before Dane and Janice met! (To be continued.)
