"Huh, neutral?" Elva said angrily, "Survive in the cracks, want to be a wall grass? It was the Fifth Legion that promised us neutrality, and they didn't represent Catherine's side! Catherine still has so many forces, they will attack us in the name of one force at will, what is the difference between our Lobit City and today's situation, other forces may not have the patience and integrity of the Fifth Legion. When the time comes, we don't know how we will die! We are different from the Habaisa of the Kuba Fortress, General Habaisa can be in the name of the border with the war, there are two imaginary enemies of the Barbarian State and the Mizusawa State, and the Kuba Fortress is alone and an independent army, except for His Majesty's camp, there is no other strength to border, so no one will worry about him double-faced, and he will not dare! We are different, we are not only around us, in addition to Catherine's forces, but also the forces of His Majesty's camp, the forces of the Fifth Legion, intricate, no force wants to see us as a wallgrass, no imaginary enemy will contradict us, if any camp feels that it can't completely suppress us, then it can only destroy us! ”

"Lieutenant Marshal!" The Legion Commander said, "We still have more than 50,000 people, do we still need to survive under the umbrella of their Fifth Legion, because the situation is complicated, we are still on the left and right, why do we choose the Fifth Legion?" After we pretend to be neutral, we can join a bigger power! Since the Fifth Legion allows us to be neutral, it will definitely not attack our city for the time being, we can secretly make another plan, as long as it is not the Fifth Legion, we may not be able to hold the city and maintain our neutral position! ”

"What if the Fifth Army eliminated the main forces of Marshal Samp and turned back against us?" Elva said, "With the current combat strength of the Fifth Army and the situation on the battlefield, Marshal Sam is more than lucky, it's not that we can't save him, it's that we don't have a chance to save him!" ”

"It's even more incomprehensible to such a humble position!" The staff officer said, "Obviously, the Fifth Legion promised us neutrality, do they want to slap themselves in the face, Marshal Count Sigko, and there is Fuxing City behind him, don't they even want this bit of integrity?" Deputy Marshal, what are you worried about? ”

"The Fifth Legion promised us neutrality, do you believe it?" Elva laughed, "If Catherine's decree had been issued to the Fifth Legion to destroy us on the spot, would you disobey if you were Marshal Higg?" Even if Catherine didn't issue this decree, if I were Marshal Higg, I would have asked Catherine to do so, because no one would ever allow a wavering force to exist in their rear! ”

The legion commander said, "Deputy Marshal, if this is the case, won't we really betray Your Majesty?" Running out of manoeuvre? When the time comes, Your Majesty's army has unified Alasia, where do we go from here? ”

"Where do we go from here?" Elva smiled, "I can't care so much, let's talk about it first!" Now that the camp of the Fifth Legion has been chosen, there is no room for error! If the Third Theater Formation is wiped out by the Fifth Legion, then the situation on the entire Alasia battlefield will be reversed! There is no time to hesitate, we must gamble, even for the sake of our whole city and all the military families! Chief of Staff, you represent Ben Shuai to negotiate with the opposing camp! The more than 50,000 troops in Lobit City can accept the reorganization and reorganization of the Fifth Army, but they must promise us one condition! ”

"I'm going?" The staff officer of the Chinese army asked in surprise, "What conditions, didn't they say that their conditions were already ultimatums and there was no room for manoeuvre?" ”

"Lobit City does not accept surrender!" Elva said, "All the soldiers and civilians of Lobit City led the army and civilians to revolt in front of the battle on the grounds that they were dissatisfied with Arad and preoccupied himself as emperor! Marshal Higg will agree to this request, for us, in the future, the status of the Fifth Army Corps will not be a demotion, but also for the sake of the whole army! ”

"Okay, take the order!" The staff officer of the Chinese army said.

"You are all Ben Shuai's henchmen, and Ben Shuai will not hide anything from you!" Elva continued, "Commander, immediately gather all the henchmen to the Marshal's Mansion for a meeting, and at the same time control all the officers who opposed the reconciliation before, and wait until the matter is settled, release them all, and do not kill anyone!" ”

"Yes, lieutenant!" The Legion Commander commanded.

Elva continued: "Quartermaster, sort out half of the supplies in Lobit City and prepare to hand them over to the Fifth Legion!" ”

"In terms of negotiation terms, don't they want any money, food, and supplies from Lobit City?" The corps commander, the staff officer of the Chinese army, and the quartermaster asked in surprise almost at the same time, "Why should the deputy marshal do anything more?" ”

"You're thinking too simply!" Elva laughed, "If we want to gain a foothold in the Fifth Legion, we must have a vote!" Do you want Ben Shuai to send them some heads? Whether we are willing to revolt with us, or we are unwilling officers, we cannot be embarrassed! They can do without it, but we can't afford not to give it, Marshal Higg and his wife can not mention the matter of the name, but it is inevitable that the people around them will not criticize us for this, so that our gains outweigh the losses! It's not that Ben Shuai is weak, but our original intention was to let everyone survive and let all our establishments still exist! Let's get on the errands! ”

"Yes, lieutenant!" The three of them were ordered to leave.

Watching the three of them leave, Elva looked up to the sky and sighed: "Hig, I hope this time, I can bet right!" ”

……

"You're finally back!" It wasn't until the evening that Higg reappeared in the tent of the Chinese army camp outside Lobit, and Lan Xian'er said with a smile while taking off Higg's coat, "I'm still worried about whether you have arranged some secret operations tonight!" They've sent messengers! ”

"So fast?" Higg smiled, "We originally planned to act tonight, and I just came back to find out, but I didn't expect them to react so quickly, hahaha!" Did they agree to surrender or neutrality? ”

"No surrender and no neutrality!" Lan Xian'er smiled, "They only accept the pre-war uprising, and join us in denouncing Arad as emperor, even I am surprised, it seems that Elva is not a simple person, so that the army of Lobit City will not surrender to our Fifth Legion, but cooperate with our Fifth Legion, but they agree that their army will be integrated by us!" ”

"You agree?" Higg also asked in surprise.

"Why don't I agree?" Lan Xian'er said with a smile, "Agreeing to our reorganization, it is actually surrendering, it's just a pre-battle uprising to put it nicely, and it's okay to let this army exist as a friendly army for the time being!" Why, you don't agree? ”

"Hmph, I hope they don't have two faces, otherwise, I will make them regret it!" Higg said, "However, if this is the case, Elva is indeed not simple, not only solves the problem of army morale, but also gives them a position in the Fifth Legion, although they all surrender, but in a different way, but it is very different!" It made me look at him with admiration! ”

"Another point, although they did not send troops to fight against Sampu, they agreed to supply war materials and military rations!" Lan Xian'er said, "This Elva is still knowledgeable about current affairs, and he didn't fight well, hehe, the means of playing are indeed not bad!" ”

"When is the handover?" Higg asked, "As soon as possible!" ”

"Tomorrow!" Lan Xian'er said, "They still have to deal with some different voices, after tomorrow, when the handover will be decided!" ”

"This matter is very important, you can't be sloppy, no matter how urgent Fuxing City is, you can't leave until you finish handing over the main army!" Higg said, "Tomorrow I will send Thomas with 30,000 cavalry to the aid of Fuxing City!" ”

"This time, many of the troops have suffered serious losses, especially the expeditionary force in Lufasi, and the Chinese Guards Battalion in Mevo also suffered nearly 10,000 battle losses!" Lan Xian'er said, "I plan to merge these two armies, what do you think?" ”

"Tell me what you think!" Higg wondered why Blue Fairy wanted to cancel the formation of one of the armies.

"How Mevo's Chinese Guards Battalion was formed, you and I both know it!" "It was originally formed improvised to deal with the fair showdown proposed by Curdes, and it has not been adjusted since. The army consisted entirely of infantry, and although the defense was invincible, the attack was very monotonous, and many of them did not play a role in the formation. If some marksmen, elven marksmen, and phantom shooters are incorporated into the army, or even some mages are placed in, this army can have three-dimensional attack capabilities. Although this will sacrifice part of the defensive power, a defensive army is indeed not what we need at this stage, especially a sharp weapon like the Chinese Guards Battalion! At the same time, General Kolincha was also incorporated into the formation and was responsible for directing the attack, while Mevo was only responsible for the defense of the formation, so that this army could really be both offensive and defensive! This is the lesson we learned with the blood of our last great war! ”

"Corincha's elven archers and phantom archers are indeed invincible in the jungle, and we underestimate Chengdu that has been weakened in the plains or other terrain, causing them heavy losses, and I am thinking about how to solve this problem!" Higg said, "Let the remaining infantry of Mevo be used as the basis of the Bagua Array, and add Korincha's archery army to it, but then the Chinese guards will increase to more than 40,000 people, is this still in line with the number of Bagua Array?" ”

"Hehe, how can there be such a precise requirement?" Lan Xian'er said, "Even if it is the number of eight or eight at the beginning of the formation, who can guarantee that there will be no losses in the battle process and will always meet the number of eight or eight?" If we don't meet this number, we don't have to fight? Don't worry, for the understanding of this formation, Mevo can't be uncounted, he knows how to arrange! As for the remaining dwarven warriors and marksmen in the Lufasi Expeditionary Force, they were all placed in the main army of General Simak and reorganized by him! ”

"Of the more than 60,000 captives in Amman City, I gave half to Shante, and the other half was also incorporated into Lusimak's main force!" Higg said, "Although there are 240,000 troops in the Southern Expedition of the Fifth Army after the reorganization, we cannot divide our troops yet, and we do not have the time and energy to manage the territory we have grabbed, so I plan to hand over the management of Amman City to Elva, and the Southern Expeditionary Army will all advance westward and annihilate Sampu's headquarters in one fell swoop!" ”
