Chapter 83: Speculation

Otis sat back in his seat, still feeling a little palpitating for a long time. Although he knew that Connors's strength was unfathomable, he didn't expect that just one sentence would shock his blood and blood, almost not hurt his internal organs, and scared him so much that he no longer dared to speak casually.

Seeing that everyone's faces were solemn, Sean sighed softly and continued: "At present, we have no garrison in the canyon, and because we couldn't deliver the news before, it is unlikely that reinforcements will appear for a while. For now, after we put aside the Chamber of Commerce, all the combat power that can be used is 190 elite paladins, 61 students, and everyone here. ”

Sean's words undoubtedly stirred up a thousand waves with one stone, and the originally relatively calm lake seemed to be thrown into a boulder in an instant.

"Your Majesty, now that the barrier has been opened, why can't we take advantage of this time to evacuate here first?"

"Yes, such a disparity in combat effectiveness is almost a situation of one against a hundred, how can this be withstanded?" the teacher of Barak Academy also said at this time.

With one person taking the lead, many people spoke one after another, and it was safe to evacuate temporarily.

"Hehe, you're really naΓ―ve. Just as everyone was discussing how to retreat, an inopportune taunt suddenly sounded, and the whole camp was instantly silent.

"Hmph, what do you know about a hairy man, even if you retreat at that time, a fart like you will eventually be a burden, and you need our protection and drag us down. A royal nobleman dressed in fine clothes said with contempt on his face.

There are not a few nobles like this, there are seven or eight people. These people are all some face-staking figures in the royal family, and they originally wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of this exchange meeting of the four academies to come and get some good seedlings to go back to the family to cultivate, but who would have thought that the embarrassing situation of being trapped for three days and completely losing contact with the rear side occurred, and as a result, they encountered a dangerous situation in which the eastern and western regions rebelled one after another, and the situation in the holy capital was unclear. One thing after another, so that these people have long worn out all their patience, where can they give a student like Ron any good face.

Several other nobles also made mockery one after another, and some even scolded Ron for being bloody and foul language.

"That's enough, if you don't have any ability, you will accuse others there, and the royal family will have people like you to provoke a rebellion between the East and the West!" Charles couldn't listen anymore, and suddenly stood up and shouted.

It's just that as soon as he said it, he felt that something was wrong, and when he looked at Sean, he smiled a little embarrassedly, and said apologetically: "Your Majesty, I'm really sorry, I ......"

Sean waved his hand, signaling that he was fine, but a modest smile appeared on his face, and said: "Vice President Charles's words are not unreasonable, the current situation of the Saint-Franc Empire is indeed inseparable from the depravity of the royal family, and I also think that something should be done." ”

Sean's words had just fallen, outside the tent

Four or five sturdy knights came in at once, their spears in their hands, all pointing obliquely at the nobles who had been insulting just now.

"Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?" a nobleman, apparently not yet seeing the form, stepped forward.

The corners of Sean's mouth twitched with a fierce sneer: "The enemy is still disturbing the morale of the army, and his heart can be punished." When people come, they will all be dragged out, and they will be guarded first, and then they will be sent back to the holy capital. ”

"Sean, you bastard......" The man was knocked unconscious by a knight and dragged out. The rest of the nobles were instantly silent, not daring to do anything more, and they all lowered their heads one by one, looking like they were resigned to their fate.

Ron's eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly. Sean's approach didn't surprise Ron. Long after he heard about the hidden strength of the Holy Capital from Macbeth before, he had doubts about Sean's panicked expression when he shouted before, and now it seems that his actions at that time should be to act for some people, so that some people can show their feet at the critical moment of life and death, and pave the way for him in the future.

Ron is not interested in such an imperial mental trick, after all, he has never liked such a thing as power, and prefers the kind of freedom that is unrestrained. It's just that these are all things for the future, and he doesn't have the heart to think about it at the moment.

The punishment of those nobles seems to be only a trivial episode, and it does not attract much attention. Ron knew very well that everyone here now was probably Sean's cronies.

"This Mr. Ron, I don't know what you just said, should you give everyone a clarification?" Connors said kindly, seeing that the atmosphere had calmed down.

Everyone seemed to have some deeper meaning in Connors's tone, and even the feminine man who had mocked Ron before stopped talking at this time, waiting for the rest of the story.

Ron glanced at Macbeth beside him, smiled slightly, and then strode over to the sandbox and said, "This is where we are now. Because of the delay for a great time, the vanguard army is probably less than a hundred miles away from us at this time, and it will be half an hour to carry out a surprise attack on us. If we want to retreat, there are only two options, the first is to escape after breaking through the front, then we must leave the narrow terrain near the gorge before the Chinese army arrives, and quickly evacuate from the official road to the southwest. The time we can escape is half an hour. The premise is that we can break through the encirclement of 30,000 vanguard troops. ”

Ron talked eloquently at the sand table, and after listening to several people thinking about it, he nodded yes. But some people questioned and asked, "Where we are now, right at the entrance to the canyon, we can evacuate through the mountain road to the north?"

"Not bad. The second option is to evacuate from the mountain road in the rear. If you evacuate from the rear, it seems that you will not encounter enemy attacks, but don't forget, this is the Eastern Regions, which is the territory of the rebels, do you think they will be completely unprepared?"

Everyone looked at each other, and some muttered, "What if the other party just didn't take it into account......"

Ron showed a meaningful smile and said, "Maybe the other party really didn't expect us to evacuate from the rear, but there is another thing you should not forget, Hawthorne Canyon is connected to the Kohler Mountains, and if we evacuate from the mountain road in the rear, we will not directly enter the official road, but will enter the northernmost section of the Kohler Mountains." The terrain is steep, and the drop is almost 100 meters, but that's not the point, the most important thing is that most of the northern part of the Kohler Mountains is occupied by the Harpies, and this is their nest. ”

"Harpy? I think I've heard of it. It is said to be a race of human-faced eagles who like to inhabit cliffs and feed on humans and large beasts. A teacher at Wilffen College seemed to have some knowledge of this, and explained it to everyone.

"Yes, the Harpy is not strong in single combat, but they are gregarious, have a strong sense of territory, and their owners are not inferior to the powerful flesh of Warcraft, and even have excellent magicians who are not inferior to humans. If it weren't for the extreme restrictions of the environment in which they live, they would definitely become a very powerful force in this world. ”

After everyone talked for a while, Jeff Coe, the leader of Wilffen Academy, said: "If it is really what you do, then we are indeed unable to retreat now, but how can you be sure that the northern section of the Kohler Mountains bordering the Hawthorne Canyon is the nest of the Harpies? Although I have heard of this race, their living environment is harsh, so there are very few survivors in the world, where did you know about this?"

Ron said unhurriedly, "I guess." ”

"What!" shouted in unison. Jeffko's face became even more gloomy, and he said, "Such a big thing, you actually guessed, it's just nonsense!"

Ron didn't seem surprised by everyone's reaction, walked around the sand table, and said, "Teacher Jeffko, you also did it just now, the harpy people have extremely strict requirements for the habitat environment, so you might as well take a look at the terrain here, according to the environment I just described, is it extremely suitable for the harpy to live?"

Jeffko walked to the sand table with a grim face and looked at it carefully, but only after a glance was a surprise in his heart. The terrain is indeed very consistent with the description of the Hippogriff's habitat recorded in the texts. However, he still refused to soften, and snorted coldly: "Hmph, even if that's the case, that's just your guess." Let's just guess and give up hope of escape? ”

"yes, yes, that's our only hope. ”

"Yes, what a harpy, I've never heard of it. What are we waiting for, hurry up and prepare to evacuate here, it will be too late for the army to kill. ”

Everyone was unimpressed by Ron's words and got up to leave. They know very well that to sit here is to wait for death, and the so-called deliberation and countermeasures are nothing more than pretentiousness, 300 against 30,000, arithmetic problems that fools will do, how dare they stay here.
