Chapter 254: Strengthening the Line of Defense

It was almost the same in the Earl's Court in the early winter morning, and Sean went to sleep for a while after observing the terrain of the border, and did not wake up until long after dawn when the servants woke him up.

Breakfast......

It's still eating at the table alone, the difference is that Luke will report the news from the front to himself, during this time, because of Barnier's relationship in the mercenaries, a part of the mercenary group has been united as the hub of Oro City's intelligence, although the funds were not enough at the beginning, but with Barnier's skillful routines among the mercenaries, he still got a lot of information.

And the cost is not large, and there is no need to worry about whether the other party will leak secrets.

"So the war between the Empire and the Borgs is already in the thick of it?" Sean asked, pausing his movements.

"Yes, both sides urgently need to open up the situation, but both are stuck in a quagmire, and it is difficult to have a large-scale siege war now, and both sides are competing with each other for resources. ”

The battle will become like this at a certain stage, unless you have a devastating force to blow up a country directly, or maybe a single attack can kill millions of people, even if the technology is slightly ahead, you can't completely control the overall situation, not to mention that Borg's supply line is still so long!

"Then it will take a long time. Sean said suddenly.

Subconsciously glanced at his breakfast, meat, eggs and wheat porridge were all available, I don't know how long I can last such a day.

"Yes, if the Borg insist on not retreating, it may last for a long time, maybe even a year or two...... At that time, we will also have to prepare some money and food to be sent to the front. Luke thought for a moment and said.

Since the north of the Basharan Empire has become a battlefield, more food sources will be pressed on the south, and maybe all the southern nobles will have to forcibly pay money and grain to the state, especially the grand duke of the south is still such a patriotic person.

"It is true that you have to prepare in advance, so the Borg people also urgently need to end this war as soon as possible!"

"I'm afraid it's not so easy to end, and even if he were to retreat now, I'm afraid he would lose a lot of soldiers......," Luke said.

"There is no need for a drawdown. ”

"Huh?"

Sean looked at Luke's puzzled look, although the other servants were involved in the conversation between the two but also heard the conversation, so they were in the field of vision [Attention...... There are quite a few focal points, and the state is written on everyone's head.

"Why don't they need to retreat, do they have to fight us?" asked not Luke, but Karjana and the others who came from the other side.

The address of the Wings of Heaven branch has not yet been chosen, and Sean has already arranged for the Morgan family to be in charge of this matter, so they have lived in the Earl's Court during the time they have not entered the branch.

Of course, Sean also wants them to live in the Earl's Court, and even if the branch is established, at least Karjana and Nissa should stay......

One is for safety, and the other is that the soldiers at Earl's Court look energetic when they're there!

Karjana walked directly to Sean, and the two were allowed to dine with her, so they were able to sit across from her.

"Why don't they need to retreat?" asked again.

Karjana has always been the liaison between the headquarters of the Wings of Heaven or Frelia herself, and she will truthfully report everything that happens here, and after returning from the forest, she has written a large explanation of the situation and sent it to Frelia in the north, and at the same time mentioned several methods of dealing with the war that she had in mind.

Even though Sean didn't think it was necessary, she did it anyway.

As a member of the National Order of Wizards, Frelia was occasionally able to speak, and her immediate leader was the one who could influence the king's decisions, so Karjana felt that it was necessary for her opinion to be submitted......

Of course, it doesn't matter about these Seans, anyway, it's just to give opinions.

He didn't believe that the old marshals who had been guarding the north all their lives would not be able to think of such a solution, and that submitting it was just saying what someone else had said.

However......

It's different now.

It's been different since the abilities I've acquired.

What you foresee yourself is likely to come true......

Karjana sat directly next to Sean and waited for an answer.

"The best way to do it than to retreat is to attack. ”

"But they can't move forward, they can't move forward a single step!"

Sean looked at the witch in front of him and said firmly......

"It's true that they can't advance, but they can attack from another place. For example, in the west, you can bypass the plateau mountain range and go through the Amansha region to attack the southwest of the empire, and at the same time, you can bypass the Gobi in the Edak region in the east and directly attack the southeast region of the empire, that is, our city of Oro. Sean said.

In the early hours of this morning, I studied the terrain map for a long time, although I can't see the highlights of the characters in a large range, but I can find out the nearby terrain height and the size of the plain, that section of the road can be walked, and there is even a small number of oases that can be replenished by the Gobi bare stone mountain range, which is simply a god-sent route.

"This ......"

Karjana wasn't stupid, she looked around at Nissa and Luke as she thought about it.

"Is it possible? You know, no one has ever walked in those places. ”

"It may not be suitable on the plateau, and the temper of the Amansha people may not give way so easily, but it is not impossible; ”

As soon as he heard this, Sean understood that none of the people in front of him had been to the Gobi or the desert region.

It's an empire, and every city is connected by roads...... Outside the smaller city is the vast desert, so the defense line will not be so long.

Didn't those Adak soldiers who had stayed on the border retreat because of their anger in Tacoma!

Luke and Karjana pondered......

"Now I'm going to set up the border, Luke, you ask Joseph to send troops tomorrow...... No, I'm going to go to the border fortification today, I don't think there has ever been a battle in that place, the high walls should be repaired, and the arrow towers and turrets will be rebuilt, and Claude will also go over there to help, and the defense line will be deployed to the buffer zone in Adak. Sean commanded.

Luke and the others listened in amazement as they heard the deployment of these columns.

Just guessing, I actually thought about the whole deployment!

"My lord, are they really going to sneak up from there?"

"Yes. Will definitely ......."

The two looked at Sean in disbelief.

"How many men should General Joseph bring with him?"

"Half...... No, just bring two-thirds of the army over, so that the deployment is faster, and we don't have much time to get ready before the enemy!"
