Chapter 120: The Plan

In addition to Anthony and Prince Andre, there are also two of the prince's staff, as well as Lin Zhifeng, Tang Feng and Xu Feng in the "Four Heroes of Southern Union". Anthony's little henchman, Paul, was negligible, and he was reclining in a chair in the corner, with one hand over his head, and he was asleep.

Compared with the deep belief of Lin Zhifeng and the other three, Prince Andre was suspicious, and the two staff members whose hair and beard began to dye white showed reasonable disdain for this little guy with no hair on his mouth.

When it comes to fist fighting, the two of us combined can't beat you. But analyzing the situation of the empire and discussing the national strategy, you kid is not even qualified to sit with us and discuss.

I don't know how he coaxed His Majesty the King and Prince Andrei to let him come to us to "teach"?

Hum! Wait a minute, don't let us catch any loopholes and mistakes, or don't blame us for not saving face for you.

The two staff members listened attentively to Anthony's narration, and their concentration was not much better than when they defeated many other strategists and entered the assessment of His Royal Highness the Prince's think tank team. But unfortunately, their careful thinking did not materialize.

Anthony's narration is meticulous and rigorous, and the logic is very clear. The content involved can be found in the Empire's intelligence system, and there is nothing surprising about the two staff members.

But what is rare is that he can sort out messy and even incomplete information clearly and in an orderly manner. After his personal analysis, he put together all seemingly irrelevant information and restored the most reasonable and most realistic speculation.

The relationship between the two empires, the comparison of military, economic, and comprehensive strength, the advantages and disadvantages of each and the reasons for their formation, etc., sounded so convincing from his mouth.

The mentality of the two staff members changed from unresentment to peace, and then from peace to admiration.

In this world, it turns out that there really are some unreasonable and unexplained geniuses! They are gifted, they are born to know. Any measure and measure of their behavior by the eyes and standards of normal people seems very naïve and ridiculous.

The two of them are still like this, let alone Lin Zhifeng and the other three, who already respect Anthony like a god. can be called by Anthony to follow His Royal Highness the Prince to do things for the empire, so that they will wake up laughing when they dream. At this moment, listening to the important information that only the upper echelons of the empire are qualified to receive, he naturally cheered up and listened carefully to study with the attitude of the hardest student.

Prince Andrei's feelings about this are even more profound.

The national war involves a lot of complexities, and the sooner the preparations start, the better. Therefore, after the court meeting, His Royal Highness the Prince's life became busy.

Antony, as the person appointed by His Majesty to assist the prince, naturally had to put in the work in order to "make amends".

The huge state apparatus was set in motion, and all kinds of affairs were complicated. But the matter is very high, and the king does everything himself, and he does not dare to ignore it at all, and it is impossible to leave the matter to Andrei, who is still inexperienced. Therefore, most of the things handled by His Royal Highness the Prince are running around and coordinating communication.

Of course, this kind of thing does not need to be bothered by His Royal Highness the Prince, His Majesty just hopes that his son will experience it for himself and learn something useful from this rare opportunity.

There is not much to play in the work, and the results of everyone can only be regarded as decent, and it is difficult to have amazing performances. Andrei understands this intellectually, but he is inevitably a little disappointed with the "magical" teenager in the intelligence.

But outside of work, some of Anthony's "unprofessional" initiatives slowly made His Royal Highness the Prince see his extraordinary, and gradually reversed Andre's opinion of him.

Anthony has been progressing these initiatives in an orderly and gradual manner. Sometimes, he would also discuss with Andre, or seek the support and help of His Royal Highness the Prince. The reason why there is this informal meeting similar to "teaching" today is precisely because some of the things that Anthony has planned have begun to take shape, and it is necessary for everyone to understand the whole framework clearly, and everyone needs to work together to fill in and improve this framework.

"The most basic strategy in the battle against the Riga Empire is defense. Relying on the province of Edinburgh, Grand Duke Mattesias, it was strictly guarded and resolutely prevented from allowing the troops of the Riga Empire to enter the hinterland of our country. This is the foundation of this national war, and it is also the most crucial point.

"While the Grand Duke of Matesias is fully capable of resisting the attack of the Riga army, the various provinces within our country must be fully operational, organizing conscription, training troops, crafting weapons and armor, producing all kinds of military supplies, and giving the Grand Duke full support in terms of soldiers and logistical supplies.

"When the first round of the Riga Empire's attack was resisted and the battle entered a stalemate phase, we could organize troops from all over the country to take turns to enter the front line of the province of Edinburgh. In this way, it can not only allow the front-line soldiers to get enough rest and recuperation, but also allow the teams of the whole country to experience the baptism and tempering of war, and slowly build a batch of elite troops who are brave and good at fighting.

"When our soldiers who have experienced a series of fierce battles sharpen their spears and swords in their hands, strengthen their minds and strengthen their hearts, it indicates that our glorious empire is ready to counterattack.

"The so-called rigidity cannot last long, and it is also said to be vigorous, then declining, and exhausted. The Riga Empire was heavily armed under the city of Edinburgh, but it could not take a step forward for a long time. After a long time, morale will inevitably be low. Coupled with the strength of their Holy Empire on the Eastern Front, it was impossible to maintain a confrontation with them for a long time. If the situation on the Eastern Front changes, the consumption of Rigadi's ** power will be even more serious. At this time, as long as we can win the battle under the city of Edinburgh, we will not only have a great chance of resolving the crisis of our country, but also take the opportunity to counterattack into the hinterland of the Riga Empire and kick this evil neighbor into the abyss. ”

Anthony's words only made everyone present feel excited, and they couldn't help themselves.

All along, the Glorious Empire could only be indignant and resentful in the face of the offensive aggression of the Riga Empire. The people either scolded the Riga for their brutality or feared the fierceness of the Riga army, and worried about whether the glorious empire would be able to withstand the enemy's attack.

But from Anthony's overall plan, Prince Andrei and others saw another idea and possibility: to counterattack the Riga Empire and completely destroy this thug who has always coveted the glorious empire!

This idea alone is enough to make the blood of the people of any glorious empire run wild. Not to mention, this is not just a pipe dream, but a real plan and a step. And the implementation of each step does not seem impossible.

In fact, Anthony's individual interview with His Majesty the King finally convinced him to make up his mind to fight the Riga Empire to the death.

His Majesty was not unaware of the problems facing the Empire, but it was precisely because he knew too much that he was too far behind his opponents that he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Originally, its strength was far inferior to that of the enemy, but now it is even more because of a momentary error in judgment and inappropriate strategy, allowing the enemy to wantonly explore and steal secrets in the hinterland of his country. Let the balance of victory and defeat seriously tilt in favor of the enemy.

Perhaps, no matter how much struggle and effort is made, the situation will not be reversed.

It was Anthony's plan that gave His Majesty hope again. His Majesty's choice to believe that this plan was possible was due to a piece of news that Anthony had brought from the city of Edinburgh.

Or rather, a word.

A quote from Toantoni, Grand Duke of Mattesias, to His Majesty the King:

There are no "business tours" of Riga in the province of Edinburgh!
