1425 Overly cautious
Night.
Reef Fort, Commander's Mansion, Command Room.
A slender wizard in his mid-thirties, covering his mouth with a handkerchief, was coughing incessantly.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
Coughing for a long time, the thin wizard raised his head, looked at Sauron in front of him, and said, "General, that's pretty much the case. After seeing Char's envoy killed and disposed of with his body, I didn't follow him further and returned to Fort Reef. That's right...... At the end, the woman who was handling the body glanced in the direction where I was hiding, wondering if she had spotted me, and I was a little unsure about that...... cough cough cough ......"
In the end, the thinning wizard coughed again, and the cough was heartbreaking, as if he was going to cough out his own internal organs. After coughing like this for a long time, his fist clenched, and a faint blue light flashed on the thin wizard's face, but he used his extraordinary strength to finally suppress the cough.
Sauron was dressed in black, and after listening to the Thin Wizard's words, he glanced at the Thin Wizard, nodded and said, "Well, I know all about it, Wizard Ford." You have worked hard in this tracking operation, and there is no need for you to be busy in the future, you can go to rest and pay attention to your body. ”
"Thank you, General. The thin wizard struck his fist on his chest, gave a military salute, suppressed a soft cough, and turned away.
When the thin wizard left, Sauron turned his head to look at the blue-robed wizard standing on the side, Abu Yul, and asked aloud, "What do you think, Wizard Yule?"
With a worried gaze, the wizard Hule looked in the direction where the thin wizard had left, and after a long look, he withdrew his gaze and looked at Sauron.
After a deep sigh, the wizard Yule said, "Is this...... General, to be honest, I was a little shocked by Sharin's actions, I really didn't expect them to dare to kill the envoy from Char, and kill it so decisively.
We all know that the guy called Xia Zuo doesn't have much ability, just a pawn sent to the scene, but the key is that behind this chess piece is the current Alliance Emperor. Shalin did such a desperate job, I'm afraid things won't be so easy to calm down. ”
"In addition, it was the envoy who borrowed the title of our 'First Glory Regiment' and displayed the military flag, which did not play any role, and it seems that Sarin does not think too highly of us. Wizard Yule shook his head, "This is not a good thing, Shalin can kill the fake 'First Glory Regiment' so unceremoniously now, and he can kill our real 'First Glory Regiment' so unceremoniously in the future, we must guard against them." “
"Hmm. Sauron replied, nodded lightly, and agreed with the sorcerer Yule's idea, and said in a loud voice, "I have decided, Wizard Hule, next, adjust the deployment of all border troops, increase the level of alert, and send the elite forces out. ”
"Sent to the west?" asked the wizard Huledo, the so-called west is naturally sarin.
"The west will send it, and the east side will send it. "Sauron, sending the elite to the west is against Shalin, and sending it to the east is against the hinterland of the Alliance.
"Do you want to go to the east?" the wizard Hule blinked, "General, is this necessary?"
"It's better to be careful. Sauron said in a deep voice, "My desire has always been to make the Alliance the greatest nation. Now that the country is sick, I can't find a way to treat him, but I'm going to try to make sure she doesn't get worse until the day when she gets better. For this reason, I want to try to avoid Char, Sarin, and Sika from having a major conflict in a short period of time, otherwise the future direction will become uncertain.
To achieve this goal, I have to grasp the military power of the border, as long as the military power of the border is in my hands, Char, who lacks enough foreign troops, cannot easily do things out of the ordinary, at most to make some chaos in the alliance. Although Shalin has a very bad attitude, he has always put development first and will not take the initiative to provoke conflicts. Sika is even more seizing the time to lick the wounds of the national war three years ago, and will not start the war lightly. In this way, the overall situation is peaceful.
Outsiders may say I'm greedy for power, or maybe I'm dissent, but no matter what, things don't change badly. ”
The wizard Hule was persuaded, glanced at Sauron, and asked, "Then general, I'll go and ask the staff committee to make a plan to see how the deployment adjustment of the army is suitable?"
"Good. Sauron nodded.
The wizard Hule answered, and walked outside.
But before he could get out of the door, as soon as his feet stopped, the wizard Hule turned back again.
"What?" Sauron raised an eyebrow and asked, "Something?"
"Well, that's right, General. Wizard Hule said, "Wizard Ford just now, you also saw it, after tracking back, he has been coughing and is not in good health. It stands to reason that Wizard Ford, as a second-level high-level wizard, is able to resist most diseases with his extraordinary strength, which is definitely not normal.
And I just happened to hear that the 'Poison Heart Queen', who had been hunted down by the Alliance for many years, seemed to have been secretly hired by Shalin, and she might be the one who cleaned up the scene this time. It may be that the other party found out about Wizard Ford's tracking, and used a small trick to make Wizard Ford fall into a difficult plague spell, causing Wizard Ford to return to our reef fort with illness.
This can be big or small, but to be on the safe side, I think it's better to ask Wizard Ford not to go to crowded places in the near future, and it's better to stay alone in a closed room until healed. ”
After hearing this, Sauron thought for a moment and said, "Yes. Wizard Ford has always been reasonable, you go and tell him, and he will understand and cooperate. ”
"I'm going to tell him. Yu Le answered, but did not move under his feet, and hesitated for a moment, "The other is the general...... Wizard Ford must have come into contact with quite a few people during his return to Reef Fort. If the person in contact is a wizard, it's okay, if it's an ordinary person, I'm afraid that I will be directly infected by the magic plague on Wizard Ford. Just in case, we'd better isolate all potentially infected people, make sure there are no problems, and then release them. ”
"It's a bit of a fuss, Wizard Hule......" Sauron frowned slightly, "Except for Wizard Ford, there are no reports of the plague situation at the moment, and this matter should be done slowly, it shouldn't be a ......."
"No, General, I can't wait. Yu Le said quickly, with a serious expression, "In case of slowing down, something big happens, it will be too late to regret it." Spell plague is something I've studied some time ago, and it's easiest to deal with when there's no large-scale infection, but once it spreads, it's a disaster. While I don't think Sarin would be so bold as to spread the plague to our reef fort, what if that 'Queen of Poison Heart' is a madman, and even she doesn't have full control over the aftermath of the spell plague?"
