Chapter 2: The Plan to Destroy the Brotherhood

Everina led Madiath Shore into the room, and Efrina consciously led the other attendants away from the room, as she had done when she met with him.

Master Madias Shore is a short, sturdy middle-aged man with deep brown eyes, who is the leader of MI7 in the Stormwind Kingdom.

The reason why Claudia wanted to leave just now was naturally not because she hated this Shore Master, in fact, she had never met this Shore Master before, so naturally she didn't have any opinions, she just didn't like what this Shore Master talked about with Varian in general.

The work of MI7 agents is not only to gather intelligence, but also includes a series of dirty tasks such as theft, murder, torture, etc., Claudia understands the necessity of the existence of agents, and understands that the work itself has nothing to do with human morality, but she is not willing to touch such things unless necessary.

Matthias was obviously a little surprised to see Claudia there, but he quickly figured out Varian's intention for having Claudia here, and then he strictly followed the etiquette of his subordinates when they first met the hostess, and kissed Claudia on one knee respectfully, and briefly introduced himself: "Your Majesty the Queen, I am Matthias Shore, the current head of MI7, and you can give me orders at any time in the future, if your Majesty needs it." ”

Claudia politely replied, "Get up, Lady Madias, and it is glad to find that our country has such a loyal and capable courtier as you." ”

Matthias then got up, and without hesitation, Claudia spoke to Varian, "Your Majesty, we have found out where the nest of the Brotherhood of Difia is. ”

Claudia looked at Madias in surprise, and Varian approving, "Good job, tell me about the situation." ”

"After more than a month of investigation, our agents have found out the mooring location of the Brotherhood of Defia along the coastline of the Western Wilderness, which is the location of the Brotherhood members called Ironclad Bay in the Wild West, and after careful confirmation by the agents, it was found that this is not only the ship of the Brotherhood of Defia, but also the base camp of the Brotherhood of Defia."

Speaking of this, Madias took out a parchment map and walked to the table to spread it out, and pointed to a place to the surrounding Varian Claudia and continued: "Two Your Majesty, this is Ironclad's Bay, and the Death Mine leading from Ironclair to Moonstream Town is also under Van Cleve's control, and Van Cleef's base is Ironclad Bay and Death Mine. ”

After hearing this, Claudia congratulated Varian: "Varian, what good news, it seems that the chaos in the western wilderness is not far from calming. ”

Varian's face also showed joy: "Yes, now that we know where Van Cleve's lair is, we have to find a way to eradicate this tumor in one fell swoop, the western wilderness has been chaotic for too long." ”

In the time that followed, Varian first asked Madias for more detailed information, and after making a decision, he said to Claudia, "My Queen, I want to use troops against the Death Mine and Ironclad Bay in the near future, how about you help me make a plan?" ”

"Your Majesty, are you going to test me?" Claudia smiled and said, "Then I will perform the duties of an adjutant for His Majesty today." ”

Varian shook his head: "Claudia, this is not just for the sake of examining you, but this matter really cannot be handed over to the Imperial Council for discussion, and it is better to have as few people in the know as possible." ”

Claudia suddenly realized that Varian was afraid that the news would leak out, and after thinking for a while, she made a simple plan: "The Brotherhood of Defia is just a group of bandits after all, and it is impossible to fight against the regular army, but it is pointless for us to just destroy the Ironclad Bay and the Mine of Death, and more importantly, to annihilate as many high-ranking members of the Brotherhood as possible and even kill Van Cleef himself." ”

"In this case, I suggest that the navy and the army be mobilized to block the ironclad bay and the death mine at the same time, and the navy will have two capital ships or one capital ship and two auxiliary ships will be enough, and the army suggests that the fastest royal knights and senior rangers should be dispatched directly to ensure the suddenness of the attack and the reliability of the blockade, and after the blockade circle is completed, we can calmly mobilize the fourth army and militia that are still in the western wilderness to attack the opponent's lair."

"Sounds doable," Varian nodded in agreement, then continued, "But the transfer of both the capital ship and the royal knights is no small matter, and how can we make sure we can hide from Van Cleaf's spies on our side?" ”

Claudia had already thought of a plan in her previous thoughts: "Tomorrow is the day when the envoys of various countries will leave, we can ask King Dalin or Princess Gianna to take the initiative to invite us to Kul Tiras, Your Majesty naturally needs the protection of royal knights and capital ships when traveling." ”

"As long as the fleet leaves the port, we can take the initiative to deceive our location in Stormwind City, and even if there are traitors in our fleet, it is almost impossible to send intelligence in the vast sea."

"We can choose to drop the royal knights and rangers near Ironclad Bay in the early hours of the morning, and then launch a surprise attack the next morning to blockade it, so that by the time Van Cleef reacts, the encirclement has already been formed, and he must have only one way to destroy it by then."

Listening to Claudia's description of the plan, Varian's eyes flashed with astonishment, and quickly turned to appreciation, although he already knew that Claudia was very intelligent, he did not expect that she would be able to make such a meticulous plan in such a short time.

Varian approving, "Excellent plan, Claudia, you would have become an outstanding general if you hadn't left the army by marrying me." (Note 1)"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the compliment." Claudia laughed.

Varian then looked at Matthias, who had been silent since the introduction of the information, and asked, "Matthias, do you think there is anything that needs to be improved in this plan?" ”

Matthias was silent before just because he strictly followed the ancestral teachings, in his heart he had actually agreed with Claudia's plan, and his evaluation of Claudia had also gone up a level, and after Varian opened his mouth to ask, Matthias replied respectfully:

"Two Your Majesty, I propose to replace the rangers with agents from MI7, there are very few high-level rangers in our country, and rash transfers are easy to attract attention, and the long-trained agents are not weaker than the rangers in anti-stealth, and can better complete the task."

"Very well, then replace the rangers with agents, they are more specialized in this area," Varian agreed with Matthias, "Let's split up next, Claudia, you now go to Gianna for help, and let His Majesty Dalin send out an invitation at the farewell banquet in the evening, which seems more natural, and Matthias and I will have to determine the knights and agents involved in the operation." ”

"Okay, Varian." Claudia turned to leave.

For the rest of the day, the plan went so smoothly that Varian was stunned by His Majesty's invitation to perform in a hurry, and then worked overtime that night to finalize the list of his entourage, so it was not too early for him to return to Claudia.

Claudia was naturally waiting for Varian, and when Varian returned, the two lay side by side, talking:

"I'm sorry, Claudia, we're just getting married and we're going to go on the expedition, and the day before yesterday I said that we'd have to do less business these days."

"It's okay, Varian, we'll be together anyway, as long as I'm there for you."

"I'll be sure to stay with you for a few more days when I get back, Claudia, and we haven't finished our mission for today."

Claudia let out a sneer, then glanced at each other as an invitation, and soon embraced Varian......

After the cloud and rain, Claudia covered her face with her hands and said softly: "Varian, I sprayed you again just now, I always feel so ashamed, next time you must help me relieve it first before doing ......"

There was a smile in the man's tone: "Actually, you can also relieve it yourself in advance." ”

"How can that be," Claudia hurriedly retorted, then glanced at Varian and whispered, "Before I stop taking the medicine, you must be responsible for helping me relieve it, you know why I took the medicine." ”

"No problem, I'll definitely help you."

Early the next morning, a large number of ships began to leave the port of Stormwind, and the envoys of various countries, including Fao, Tesolos, and Mograini, ended their three-day wedding celebrations and began to return to their respective destinations, and Claudia and Varian began to board the ship in preparation for the so-called "Kurtilas honeymoon visit".

It is worth mentioning that Claudia Varian's fleet includes the presence of Lao Chen, in addition to the pre-selected operatives and Madiaschoer.

In fact, Lao Chen wanted to leave two months ago, but in the end, he stayed until now because he wanted to witness the wedding, so today he learned that Varian was going to sail by boat, and rubbed his luggage on the ship, thinking that the ship would take him to another continent.

In fact, not only Chen, but most of the people except for the three people at yesterday's meeting were kept in the dark, thinking that this was a normal post-marital trip and state visit, so Claudia also brought hairstylists, maids, female officials and other people who had nothing to do with the war, and everything behaved as usual.

The fleet of this operation is composed of a capital ship and two frigates, and in order to ensure the success of the operation, Varian specially selected Captain Jerrysta's King's Blade as the flagship, although Captain Jerista is a woman, and she is only thirty years old, but she has a high strength and a brilliant record, so she became one of the captains of the eight capital ships of the Stormwind Kingdom Navy at a young age, and has the hope of becoming the commander of the Navy in a few years, which is Varian's extremely trusted existence.

Don't look at Claudia and other celebrities have no topics, but she has a good conversation with this kind of female officer, so Claudia and this female captain have a very happy conversation, especially on topics such as 'the inconvenience of women in the army' and 'court etiquette is too cumbersome', and the two are even more related.

In addition to chatting with Jerista in her free time, Claudia spends more time with Varian, and when she has free time, she practices spells and Titan Words, reads books, and so on.

Time passed quickly, and in the early hours of five days later, the King's Blade and two frigates were already quietly approaching Ironclad Bay under the cover of night.
