Chapter 1586: After settling the general ledger
There were 1,800 heavily armed flying knights, and counting the logistical burdens and spare mounts, there were at least two or three thousand large and small flying beasts in their ranks. This is actually quite a large team, and it will be extremely dazzling if you line up in the sky. Once the march starts, it is estimated that people can see it clearly within a radius of dozens of miles.
Such a team, even under the cover of the mountains of Namoa, could not really approach the fortress quietly and complete a surprise attack. You know, after all, Daroshur is the military core stronghold to maintain the eastern border defense line, and all kinds of inspection facilities, whether it is the naked eye, the mechanism, or the magic, everything is available. Although the garrison has begun to loosen its armament in recent years, the equipment has not been abolished.
Yes, the main officers of the Chenhai fleet and the troops stationed in the fortress were invited to the banquet. However, the two girls also know that although the squinting level is indeed a pretending son of the gate valve faction, he is also the most elite group of gentlemen, and he will definitely become the pillar of the gate valve faction in the future and become the **oss of the civilian revolution. At this moment when the main forces of the Sixth Army could return at any time, it was impossible for Squint to relax the surveillance of the Namoan border.
In fact, Sesilio also learned from the captives that Squint had dispatched some of his elite into the mountains to directly take over several key observation posts, expanding the scope of surveillance to a radius of 100 miles east of the fortress.
Now, nearly two thousand people plus three thousand large flying beasts are swaggering into a place less than ten kilometers from the fortress? And it wasn't discovered, who is this kidding?
However, Cesiluk was also aware of Valerius' abilities. Although this elderly knight has no sense of existence, the main reason is that he joined Lu Xi's team too late. In fact, on the day that the old knight accepted the Hurricane's arrangement and swore allegiance to Lu Xi, the latter made him his chief servant. In the sequence of retainers on Colorful Rose Island, they are only under the spirit old butler who has served two generations of family heads for more than fifty years.
Outsiders will come from behind in an instant, and it stands to reason that it will cause team conflicts. However, Lu Xi's previous retainers actually only had villager A and village name B, but they did not express any dissatisfaction, in addition to the fact that the two villagers were originally good children with pure hearts, and it must also be because of Valerius's own ability and personality charm.
As it turned out, the battle-hardened veteran knight did not disappoint Lu Xi. In the Battle of Orgrimmar's Conquest, the Flying Cavalry of the Fourth Legion, although not as decisive as the artillery and spearmen, carried out their mission perfectly, and did fight several tough battles with the orc air cavalry, not once falling behind.
In addition to the unscientific growth of the morale and combat skills of the soldiers of the 4th Legion, having a good commander can certainly play a decisive role; Although in theory, Valerius, the warden general, was the officer in charge of liaison and oversight, not the military commander.
The Fourth Army is now the most capable legion in the Federation, and in every field, whether it is infantry, artillery, cavalry, engineers, baggage, etc., it is the first. Although Seyleuk is a humble and good girl, she also has such a self-confident cognition.
After all, not every Sky Knight can ride a horned eagle to charge at the opposite manta dragons, bipedal wyverns, and even the Roc Bird, which is equivalent to driving a flock of sheep to attack the wolves. Even if these knights are equipped with repeating wheel guide guns, they can burst the dog's head of the opponent's flying beast from a distance of 100 meters when charging, but the courage and fighting spirit are indeed amazing, and they are really super brave!
"However, with less than 2,000 people, even if the attack could really be sudden, the disparity in strength between the enemy and us would be too great. Now in the fortress, even if it is the Chenhai fleet, there are at least 20,000 people...... That's one to ten. ”
"No way, that guy instilled in the Fourth Legion the concept of 'when you see the enemy, you will fight, and if you fight, you will win', although I am sure that if he encounters an enemy he can't deal with, he must slip away faster than anyone else, but the soldiers below believe it!" Seyleus sighed in annoyance: "So, ah......"
"So, we're going to have to work together as much as we can, right?" Andreel put away her doubts, her face full of interest.
…… So, what are you excited about all of a sudden?
"Anyway, even if no one cooperates, we are determined to do something. In that case, you might as well try to get yourself excited. Andreil licked the corners of her mouth: "Didn't you know me on the first day, don't you always be able to fight the more excited you are?" ”
Yes, the so-called martial arts magician, this kind of person is actually not particularly rare, the more excited he is, the calmer his mind is, and the efficiency of spell casting and the choice of spell casting will be more reasonable. This was your virtue when you were the president of the student council and beat people, and in the end, all of us subordinates were busy cleaning up our hands.
"Then, the soldiers are divided into two ways, and the senior sister will go to the warehouse." Sesilek tract. Miss Almeda's Drow scouts are already on standby at the Minato warehouse. After all, this kind of work is murder and arson, and these natural femme fatales (note that this is not a derogatory term) are the most professional. Moreover, Andreil seems to have a little drow elf blood, and it will be very resonant if you don't communicate well.
Since Andreel went to the warehouse, Seyleuk naturally went to the banquet hall.
"It looks like it's bustling over there, but it's a lot more dangerous than the heavily guarded warehouse area. Moreover, on the side of the Chenhai Fleet, Dandy Lane and Gezette seem to know you. ”
"I have a way to sneak in. Moreover, if I take 10,000 steps back, even if there is an accident, my life will not be in danger. ”
“……”
"You're right on one thing, Senpai. That guy is indeed my man. Now, as long as he didn't put the knife directly on the neck of the Gate Valve Faction, they wouldn't hurt me, and would even do everything in their power to keep me safe. As long as I live, they will at least have a bargaining chip with Lu Xi. ”
“…… And I'm different. The Azure Palace has been razed to the ground, and the fate of the teacher is uncertain, I am a disciple of Teacher Russell, and they will do everything in their power to put me to death. Is that so? ”
Sesilu gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "Senior sister......"
"I know what you're trying to say. Your man is ready for all this. However, he didn't inform Mr. Russell, and just let the other party act step by step and do such a thing. So, I should hate the gate valves, and I should hate Lu Xi, right? You feel so guilty now, and you're even a little afraid to face me, right? ”
Seyrue felt that she had behaved naturally enough, but she was not an acting school like Lu Xi and Hurricane after all, and she was still a little subconsciously dodging and unnatural. There is nothing to hide in front of a person like Andrel who has done intelligence work.
So, she didn't know what to say all of a sudden.
Andreil sighed: "So, little girl, what stage do you think Teacher Russell is on?" The gate valve faction wants to make trouble, do you think he is not prepared at all? ”
“……”
"It's just that I really didn't expect them to play so decisively. Oh, I think these people are all wine bags and rice bags without guts rats, and they will not do anything but oppress the good...... Underestimating my opponents, that's my problem. ”
Seyrius's expression was a little complicated. If Andrel was too small to watch the gate faction, Lu Xi would have ignored it at all. As a pillow person, she knew too well that Lu Xi was disdainful of the gate lords and nobles. Every time I talk about them in private, it's casually like I'm talking about a group of goblins.
This is not surprising. In the eyes of a lion, is the difference between a mouse and a cockroach really big?
However, looking at the current situation, Lu Xi obviously made a lot of advance preparations for this coup and civil war. Who is this for?
Sehiru knew that Lu Xi was actually a rather lazy guy in nature, and he would only seriously plan when he encountered an opponent who was really worthy of his attention, such as when he led the Fourth Legion, which was still a "rabble", to attack the Orgrimmar Clan Alliance, or when he killed the Plague King and wiped out the entire Council of the Dead, or when he was counted as the Bloodthirsty King.
However, if you know that an opponent who is not of the same magnitude as you wants to jump back, the approximate reaction will be En, and the mouse wants to stretch out his claws? Slap them to death when they jump.
In Lu Xi's eyes, the real rulers of the Federation, these gate lords and aristocrats who have been rampant for a hundred years and whose tentacles have controlled the top and bottom of the country, are really not of the same magnitude as themselves.
Sesilu didn't know if Lu Xi was arrogant, but the other party did have this attitude.
"I don't know if Mr. Russell has underestimated the guys from the Gate Valve Sect, and I don't know if he is ready to deal with today's situation...... However, I don't believe that he would be killed by the other party so easily. However, Lu Xi's guy can be regarded as a political ally of Mr. Russell, no matter what, right? If he had made so many preparations, how could he not inform Mr. Rassell at all. Andriel said in a firm tone, or rather, it was a little unnatural to be too firm. It's like a second-rate actor who is not very talented, trying to show everyone the emotion of "firmness".
Seyleu understood that the other party could only believe this at this time, even if he forced himself to believe it.
"What's more...... Even if the worst happens, the gate valve is the most important enemy to deal with. Even if you want to settle the account with your man, you have to wait until you clean up this group of thieves! ”
Andreil paused, and then said faintly, "Then, Sesilu, come according to your plan." I'll go to the warehouse area, and I'll do everything I can to destroy the supplies carried in the Chenhai fleet and fortress to create the greatest chaos. As for your side, be careful...... If you really can't do anything, surrender. You're right, if you don't work hard, they really won't dare to hurt you, and they are indeed better suited to go to those dangerous places than me. ”
The two then split up and proceeded as planned. Dressed in his officer's robes, Sesilio swaggered into the banquet hall directly through the main entrance, and no one found a clue. This was of course due to the fact that he was carrying the treasures that the queens had given him for some unknown reasons, but also because there were almost no checks in the entire banquet hall, and there were no people who even checked the invitations. The row of guards at the door was nothing more than decoration.
According to the owner of this big party, Rear Admiral Dandy Lane with squinting eyes, this is a grand event of friendship between the Chenhai Fleet and the Sixth Legion. In the banquet, there are no class differences and inferiority, only friends and friendships. Officers on both sides, except for those who need to be on duty for combat readiness, are welcome to come and play and enjoy this happy evening. In this case, if you have to get an invitation or something, it seems a little confusing.
That being said, those who believe are fools. As an obvious class society, the performance of everyone at the banquet is actually very clear. People born into wealthy families only get together with their small circles, and officers of ordinary birth will of course only deal with people of their class. In comparison, the more transcendent ones are, of course, the magicians, but they are not obligated to serve as the ladder of emotional communication between the two sides at all.
In fact, most people who have achieved the ability to cast spells are considered to have entered the "extraordinary" world, and their mentality is no longer the same. It's nice not to think of ordinary people as monkeys, so how can you play happily with them?
Probably because of this, Cesileu, who was wearing a robe, was not disturbed for a long time, and she who had planned to come over to smash the field, of course, would not take the initiative to greet others.
If you have this time, it is better to eat more and reserve a little physical strength, and observe the situation of friend and foe by the way.
However, the so-called wine is intimidating. This kind of party on the table, although it is impossible for a fool to really drink and be profligate, but after the three rounds, most people will always let go. No, isn't there just a few handsome young officers over there, giggling around a female magician. The magician, who had been quite cold before, seemed to enjoy the feeling of the stars holding the moon as well, and from time to time he would "giggle" a few times because of the jokes or compliments told by anyone. Although her appearance was mediocre, there was a hint of excitement and a slight drunken flush on her face, and she even had a little more femininity.
After all, the army is a monk's nest, and 99 percent of the officers and enlisted men are men. However, in the world of the transcendent, especially in the realm of spellcasters, women can hold up half the sky. After all, there is such a thing as extraordinary talent, which is the same for both men and women.
Naturally, in the army of the Federation, a single sorceress is a treasure, and she can marry home and become a nobleman in an instant. Even most of the children of the wealthy families of the Ofa are actually "mortals", and being able to marry the transcendent will inevitably improve their status in the family. In comparison, posture or anything is not a problem to consider at all.
Even if you can't get married and go home, it's just a night of romance. Once a mortal is on the supernatural, isn't it equivalent to a cat on a tiger? Isn't it worth blowing for a lifetime?
In this case, although Sesilio has been hiding in the corner table in a low-key manner to eat and drink, although she has relied on the power of the treasure to overwhelm her sense of existence and her appearance has become unremarkable, there will always be people who come to talk to her with the strength of wine.
Moreover, what makes her very helpless is that this guy is still an "acquaintance", which is a bit embarrassing.
