In the matter of the wasteland pass, Dane can be said to be soft and hard. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

This is a matter of actual interests, and it is not that the attitude of Im, or the Count of the Bull behind him, can solve the problem. There was no way they could give up the actual benefits they held in their hands, and there was no way for Dane to let them continue to suck Hindlaire's blood in such a safe way.

Then this battle is absolutely unavoidable.

On September 15, Dane gave a public speech in Shawan Harbor, in which he severely attacked and criticized the warlord Im of the Wasteland Pass, and listed him on seven counts and gave him seven counts.

"A traitor who hinders Hinder's business development."

"The lackeys of the Florentine."

"A dereliction of duty who condones bandits."

"Personally order the bandits under his command to plunder innocent caravans."

"Inhumane exploiters."

"Bloody executioner."

"Enemy of all Hindlaire."

These charges are more severe than the other, and I have to say that Dane is quite powerful when he does such a thing as buttoning his hat.

Before, he didn't have such an opportunity. When he is a small warlord or a local warlord, where is he qualified to put any hat on others?

But now it was different, the most Governor of Hindlaire, the nominal master of the entire province of the region, Dane was fully qualified to label anyone who dared to oppose him as an enemy of the people.

All kinds of propaganda campaigns have been spread all over the world. The results were also remarkable, and in just a few days, at least in the southern part of Hindlaire, Iam's reputation had become completely stinking and the target of everyone's shouting.

The public news, of course, spreads very quickly. In fact, just when Dane gave a public speech and violently attacked Imu, the Earth Emperor of the Wasteland Pass got the news on the same day.

Imu, who learned the news, no longer had any luck. He knew that with Dane's current attitude, it was obvious that he was not going to give him any way to live.

Then there was only one war.

Im doesn't intend to relinquish power completely like the 'Evil Eye' or the 'Blind Dragon'. But he wouldn't be as stupid as Molotto the Executioner. He didn't think that with the three melons and two dates in his hand, he could confront Dane's army, which was obviously unrealistic.

If he really thought so, his head would not be far from the head of the White Wolf Castle, and sooner or later it would be hung up.

But what makes him better than Molotto is that he knows his position clearly, and he has both a backer and a location. If it really starts, Dane may not be able to take him down quickly. At that time, the Florentines will help in the back, and it may be possible to make Dane sink in the wasteland.

At the very least, he was able to at least retain his power and position.

This was Im's idea, and he had already begun to prepare intensively for the coming war.

But none of this escaped Dain's eyes, and one by one, encrypted messages were sent from the secret agents in the Wasteland Pass to the Black Hand Academy, and then to Dane's hands. Imu watched all the movements under his nose.

However, despite this, Dane will definitely not take the enemy lightly. In this battle against Imu and conquering the Wasteland Pass, Dane is ready to take command of the battle himself.

……

On September 17, the third day of Dane's public speech and the seven large hats on Im's head, his legion had been assembled.

In this expedition to the west, Dane led fifteen thousand soldiers. If you count the second-line troops of the garrison corps, as well as all the people who have been requisitioned, the total strength of Dane has exceeded 25,000 men.

In the six months since the end of Cindelare's total war, this battle was the largest.

At the same time, it was also the first time that the Dane forces were able to gather such a large number of men to fight a war.

And the reason why the teacher is so popular is that the key lies in one sentence:

The lion and tiger fight the rabbit, and still do their best.

Imu's troops, in fact, have nothing to fear. Although his bandit group and pass guards are famous, they are only limited to the wasteland, how can they compare with Dane's legions that roam the entire Schindlaire?

What's more, his two troops, combined, were only less than 3,000 men - in fact, this number was already exaggerated. To raise so many people in a wasteland where there is no supply shows how rich Im is.

However, although his army was not worth mentioning, the place where the Wasteland Pass was located was indeed quite unfavorable in terms of geographical conditions for the attacking side. It's not that the pass is so easy to defend and how difficult it is, but the main thing is that it's a desert no-man's land hundreds of kilometers long, where there is no local supply, no water source, and no shade, which is disgusting.

This is also the reason why in addition to the main army of 15,000 people, Dane also has to bring a large number of people and second-line troops. If he wants to go deep into the desert to attack the Wasteland Pass, he must maintain a supply line.

If you only rely on the supply and carrying capacity of the army itself, you may be able to barely reach the wasteland pass, and you can also support one or two battles. However, what if one or two battles don't defeat the other side? Im also has 3,000 regular troops in his hands, although it is not worth mentioning, but with the help of the city defense measures of the pass, he still has a little combat effectiveness.

If they could survive Dain's attack for a little longer, then in the absence of supplies, how many of Dane's legions would have to be buried in that wasteland.

It's just an im, Dane is crazy to be so desperate.

What's more, it is very likely that the Florentines will also intervene after Dane sends troops. Judging by the previous letter from Count Bull, he was not a man who was prone to compromise, and his temper was probably as stubborn as Bull's, as his nickname was.

Therefore, he must maintain a supply line from Shawan Harbor to the front line of the war, in case of a protracted war.

The requisitioned men, as well as the soldiers of the garrison corps transferred from Verina's hands, were to be responsible for transporting supplies from the port of Shawan to the front. Even, among Dane's main army, a part of the manpower has been divided to protect his supply line.

Even, although the fight has not yet begun, Dane has already imagined that this war against the Wasteland Pass, the battle over the supply line will definitely be the focus of the struggle between the two sides. If Dane is in Im's position, he will definitely make a fuss on the supply line.

This is almost Imu's only chance.
