Chapter Twenty-Nine: Eliot's Transfer
"This ...... Isn't it a little too messy? Elliot scratched his head in disbeliefβthe news had come so suddenly, and he himself was completely unprepared.
"A little." "However, this is the only chance left for a short time...... I don't think you want to miss it. β
"Won't it cause trouble?" Fiona on the side was also a little worried.
"I don't think your father thinks it's a problem...... By the way, Miss Fiona, I heard before that you and Elliot are very recognizable in the 4th Mecha Division? In other words, basically except for the recruits who have just joined for a short time, most of them should know the two of you, right? β
"Hmm...... That's right. Elliot said a little embarrassed, "Sister, she's very popular among the soldiers...... I, I'm just getting wet. β
"Although I didn't expect the opportunity to come so suddenly...... But that's exactly what happened. "The operations of the aristocratic army in Kruchen have met with very stubborn resistance, and the main battlefields are basically spread over the plains and hills from the "Double Dragon Bridge" to the Garelian Fortress...... In this case, we can get around it through the woodlands in the south. It's just that you have to act fast...... If this period of time is delayed, the risk will be greatly increased when reinforcements from the noble coalition arrive, and those passages are blocked again. β
"I agree with him." Tovar said on the side, when Helliga brought back the news, everyone happened to be together, so they simply discussed the feasibility of this plan together, "The vigilance in the central part of Krutchen has not been relaxed in any way because of the disadvantage of the war, but it should be a little too busy to control the southern region." General Craig is a notoriously fierce general, and General Varta is a very wise general, and in this situation, it is impossible for them not to take advantage of the weakening of the noble army to take the initiative - the main conflict battlefield should still be concentrated around the Shuanglong Bridge, so that the noble alliance will send more men to try to avoid causing more losses before the reinforcements of the noble alliance arrive. β
"At the same time, the forests in the south also play a considerable role in the strategic ...... Unlike the barren forests of the mountains of the northern part of the empire, the forests of the southern regions were very rich. "If there is a surplus, the regular army should also send some men to look for some resources there...... If I'm lucky, I might be able to find some clues in the area before the blockade. β
"The only problem...... The two of them. Levi frowned, looking at Elliot and Fiona with a calm gaze, "Can you cross the forests of the southern part of the empire...... Even if it doesn't delay due to the weather, it will take at least two days. This is still in the absence of a chance to rest at all, extremely tired and overdrawn......"
"Since there were no hands left at the Garelian Fortress, Heliga couldn't have brought them there in that way." Fei nodded, "If you want to seize the opportunity now, you can only hike from the mountain road - how to say, it feels a little dangerous." β
"And one more thing...... Although the noble army was under the banner of so-called "tradition", it was inevitable that the battle against the fortress of Galylian would fail again and again, and perhaps they would have some distorted minds...... Like taking the two of you hostage or something. Although people like the Marquis of Rogner and the Marquis of Haines may avoid doing so, the words of the Duke of El Barea...... I think you all know what Macchias-kun encountered during his internship a few months ago. As he said this, Tovar glanced at Macchias slightly apologetically.
"yes...... That's why I think you should act now. Unlike my father, Elliot and Miss Fiona were easily taken hostage. Talking about his own troubled experience, Macchias was a little embarrassed, but he also understood that his feelings were not the focus of the discussion at this time, so he immediately brought it over, "If they have such an idea, and they can't find you in the imperial capital, they will definitely increase their search efforts in the surrounding area...... At that point, if you act again, it will be easy to get their attention. β
"Hmm...... Not to mention the time when they were attacked by Chloe and their special methods...... The Garelian Fortress, based on what I learned in school and what I saw during that internship, should still be very strong. Elliot calmed down at this moment and began to analyze the gains and losses behind this, "Although it is very hard, but according to what you said, the success rate of the current action should be very high...... Moreover, on the one hand, this can put my father at ease and let him focus on his own work with peace of mind, and on the other hand, the appearance of my sister should also be a morale boost for the soldiers. When my sister went there before, I still remember the reaction of the soldiers quite clearly. β
"Elliot......" Fiona is moved by her brother's growth, and is a little embarrassed by the somewhat blunt praise in the second half. Thinking about it carefully, Eliot's words are not unreasonable - in terms of the discipline of the rulers of Krutsyn, using themselves and Eliot as hostages to force their father to submit is indeed something they can do, and now this rare time for the aristocratic army to rein in its edge can naturally be regarded as the last chance to transfer in the next step.
In addition, Fiona is a kind person after all. She understood that if it weren't for the fact that this young man saw Elliot's face and temporarily changed his plan to come to the rescue, he would now be at home in the imperial capital, worrying about the safety of his father and younger brother, while being captured by the aristocratic army who broke in. And now, he not only confirmed that his younger brother is safe, but also got a lot of first-hand information about his father from him; This favor is difficult to repay, and if you stay here, it will be even worse to add the risk of Her Royal Highness being exposed when the noble alliance intensifies the search.
After some thought, Fiona finally made up her mind.
"In that case...... So, start preparing now. Heliga nodded, "Just as we agreed before." β
"Hmm...... Leave it to me. Since your father took over your business, I don't need my help anymore for the Vault. It just so happens that my identity as a guerrilla cannot be idle, and I must do something for the people of other places to be worthy of the trust of Viscount Victor and His Highness Olivebat. Tovar on the side, loud.
