In the tent of the Western Regions, Ron was sturdyly tied to the cross. The clothes on his body were stripped naked, although it was already early spring, but the weather in the southern region, in early spring, was much colder than other regions, the temperature difference between day and night was even greater, and the temperature close to freezing at night still made Ron red.

The bleeding from the piercing wound on Ron's waist and abdomen has stopped somehow, and although the wound is still shocking, it seems that a magical force is constantly helping Ron recover his body.

A poof, a basin of ice water poured on Ron's body, and a piercing chill continued to drill into Ron's body, making Ron, who was still extremely drowsy, wake up in an instant, and the whole person shivered unconsciously.

While Ron was surveying his surroundings, a man covered in bandages walked in with a grim face.

The man waved at the two soldiers guarding Ron beside him, motioned for them to leave, and then pulled a chair and sat down.

"You're the commander who stood at the head of the city at the beginning, I didn't expect you to be so young. "Covered in bandages, it was none other than Sandos, the leader of the vanguard army that had rushed into the barrier at the beginning. "But I'm really curious, before we caught you, you had a chance to leave, why did you stay, can you tell me why?"

Ron grinned reluctantly and said, "Although I do have something I want to talk to you about, it's a pity that you are not qualified enough. ”

Sandos's face changed slightly, but he quickly returned to normal, and he didn't feel any disgust at what Ron said, but said generously: "Okay, I'll go to our commander, I hope your words are worthy of the risk you have taken." ”

After Sandos finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the tent, and there was a person outside the tent who was already waiting there, and a red gold glazed crown could be seen from a distance, it was the commander of the Western Regions Army, Calgado.

Calgado was outside the tent, listening to both Ron and Sandos clearly, the corners of his mouth hooked a shallow arc, waved his hand at Sandos, signaled him to stand down, and then he walked directly in.

Although Ron was very weak, how could he not notice that there was a person standing outside eavesdropping.

This is the barracks of the army, and those who dare to eavesdrop on it, except for the unfathomable spies sent by the locality, must be big people with heads and faces in the barracks.

Thinking of Sandos's identity, the identity of the person outside the tent was naturally about to come out.

Seeing Calgado come in, Ron didn't doubt the identity of the other party in the slightest, because it was in his bones

The arrogance that exudes is definitely not something that ordinary generals can exude. Moreover, the iron-blooded killing aura on his body was extremely strong, and children would even cry out in fright when they saw it.

"My name is Calgado, the supreme commander and commander of the Western Regions Alliance, dare to ask Your Excellency's name, what do you want to tell me?" Calgado didn't have any intention of being polite to Ron, and went straight to the point.

"My name is Ron, the commander of the Southern Resistance. Ron said very calmly, his eyes were clear, his demeanor was neither humble nor arrogant, even if his body was restrained and unable to move, it would not affect his innate temperament. "To be able to meet Calgado here shows that my risk is not in vain. ”

"Oh, young man, you look confident. To tell you the truth, I am indeed very curious about you, where did you get the confidence to think that I would calmly talk to you after injuring so many of my soldiers and forcing me to use siege ballistas, instead of killing you directly, in order to establish the prestige of the army. Calgado's face showed a smile that seemed to be not a smile, and a pair of deep eyes seemed to be able to see through all the falsehood, and stared directly at Ron.

Actually, Ron himself didn't know what would happen if he stayed, but he had to, because the army of the Western Regions was completely stronger than he expected. The so-called intrigues are never worth mentioning in the face of absolute strength.

All his previous plans were completely shattered after seeing the dozens of siege ballistae that had been moved out of the Western Regions, and those ballistas were lethal to the enchantment.

The enchantment circle arranged by Fordshire was simplified from the circle in the Demon World War. Because it's a simplified version, his biggest problem is that he can only reflect and absorb magic damage. Physical damage can only be channeled out, and cannot be completely offset and defended.

Therefore, once the circle is attacked by a violent physical attack, it needs to constantly transmit the damage. If it was just an artificial battle technique or a scattered attack by soldiers, Ron was confident that the magic circle would not be able to completely defend it, but in less than ten days and half a month, the alliance forces of the eastern and western regions would not want to break through.

But Ron found out that he was wrong, and the terrifying siege ballista in the Western Regions was a resounding slap in the face. It was like a slap in the face that almost buried the students of Cologne College in this first encounter.

The asymmetry of intelligence information keeps him passive on the battlefield. If the Western Regions can have such a powerful army, what kind of strength should the Eastern Regions, which is more powerful than the Western Regions, have?

Ron was very self-conscious, though

Faith, but definitely not arrogant. He originally thought that the Eastern Regions had been standing still because he was worried that the Western Regions would become the fisherman in the competition between the snipe and the clam in the war. But when he discovered the powerful strength of the Western Regions, he figured it out, in fact, he had always fallen into a misunderstanding.

Perhaps he has always felt that the Eastern Regions is because of the alliance composed of the five ancient city forces and the two equally powerful forces of Telvia City, if he is not aligned, his combat power will be greatly reduced, and his disagreement will also be an important reason for the inevitable defeat on the battlefield.

But during the time that Ron and the others had been on their way from Hawthorne Canyon all night to the battlefield in the Southern Regions, the army of the Eastern Regions had been outside the city of Fort County for nearly half a month, and for such a long time, there was no news of the discouragement of the army, which was enough to explain one thing. That is, the army of the Eastern Regions now has only one voice calling the shots. Not only that, but the strength of this voice is so strong that the other forces can only snort at it, and dare not have the slightest disobedience.

If that's the case, Ron finds that all of the original plans were almost a joke. Whether it is using Noll Yates to spread false news, or using Rogshire as a springboard to contain the army of the Western Regions, these are just clown-like jokes in the eyes of the powerful army in the Eastern Regions.

And the reason why the army of the Eastern Regions has not moved all this time is not because they are afraid of being left behind by the mantis of the Western Regions army, but because they want to wipe out all the forces in the Western Regions and the Southern Regions.

During the time when he was injured and carried on Jarvis's back, Ron, who figured it out, finally made a very bold venture. He decided to stay and have a good chat with the commander of the Western Regions.

It has to be said that his idea is not an exaggeration to describe it as bold, because no commander would risk being killed outright and negotiate terms with the enemy alone.

Ron's approach was undoubtedly very risky, but he had to do it, because if what he had guessed was true, then I am afraid that the current Eastern Regions army should have begun to make some moves. If you wait until the soldiers are in the city to discuss the matter of joining forces with the Western Regions, then the final result can be predicted, that is, the Eastern Regions will eat all the armies of the Southern and Western Regions in one go, and unify the entire Saint-Franc Empire.

It is precisely because of Ron's extraordinary courage and courage that Calgado, who has suffered losses at Ron's hands, has to resist the urge to kill Ron, and keeps Ron until now, listening to what is wrong with this young commander's brain to make such a decision.
