Chapter 818: Two Choices

On the side of the Jīng Spirit Kingdom, Gru finally quietly completed the power and quietly took everything under his control, and on the side of the Entagri Empire, the only grain producing land that the empire can rely on now, the Negan people are ushering in another bumper harvest this autumn.

Maybe this land has suffered too much, and even God can't stand it, maybe it is the new farming methods taught by the halflings that have achieved the desired effect, maybe the appearance of Chen Jian has indeed brought some kind of luck change to this land, or maybe it is some other reason, in short, this year, the farmers of all ethnic groups in Negan have harvested a lot of fruits from the field, far beyond their imagination before, and Negan is busy on the ground and underground.

So, everyone's faces were happy, and the farmers laughed, because a good harvest meant that there was more income this year, and the farmers laughed, because after calculation, the profit they made from running the farm this year gave them a big surprise, and the farm workers laughed, because the farmers gave them an extra double salary, and the merchants also laughed, because these people above had money in their hands, and their business would be better, and the men invited by the merchants also laughed, because the business was good, Naturally, the bounties offered by the bosses also increased, and the people of all ethnic groups who had not been in the Entagri empire for a long time also laughed, because Negan's situation gave them a better future.

There was a jubilant mood everywhere, and it was natural for people to associate the two consecutive years of harvest with the appearance of His Majesty the Emperor as the savior, and then His Majesty's prestige became even greater.

Chen Jian was also happy to close his mouth, the food problem he was most worried about had finally come to an end, and then, he could let go again, after the first battle of Sasio, in addition to secretly sending some people into the Krurod Kingdom to carry out activities, the Entagrui army had no more war, in addition to training or training every day, the soldiers' desire to fight had already been provoked, and the newly formed new legion also began to have combat power, which could be used, and with the efforts of various arsenals, there was no shortage of various equipment.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed, and what Chen Jian is short of now is an opportunity.

And now, the opportunity is clearly coming.

Through Skynet's activities, Jian Chen has noticed that the three countries of the Holy Alliance led by Bracada have already begun to plan an attack on the Krurod Kingdom, and from the position of the Entagre Empire, of course, there is no reason to sit back and watch the Holy Alliance eliminate the Krurod Kingdom without hindrance, and then turn around and deal with himself with all his might, so in the war of the Krurod Kingdom, the Ntagre Empire will also have to kick it anyway, and Chen Jian is also mentally prepared for a tough battle.

Chen Jian was even hesitating whether he wanted to strike first, with the help of that Hún Blood Lord York, the Entagri Empire was now fully capable of launching a surprise attack on the Krurod region, and optimistically, the Ntagri army could control most of the northern part of Krurod before the three Holy Alliance countries reacted, and according to the previous plan, connect it with the southern part of Tytalia, and prepare for the battle first.

However, Morriel did not agree with Jian Chen's strategic idea, and her idea was that instead of taking the initiative to fight the many enemies in the Krurod Kingdom, it was better to wait and see what happened, and after the Holy Alliance sent troops to the Krurod Kingdom, she would take advantage of the situation to attack the Erimirin Forest and eliminate the last base camp of the Jīng spirits.

"We don't need to invest too much strength in the kingdom of Krurod, as long as we can hold a place and attract people of all ethnic groups to join us, that's it! We should put jīng power in Eri! Didn't you say that it is better to cut off one of his fingers than to hurt his ten fingers? The most likely outcome of a hard fight with the Holy Alliance in the Krurod region is to turn into a protracted tug-of-war, and although we are not afraid of such a situation, it is always not beautiful to prolong the war. ”

Tǐng's belly, which had begun to bulge, Morriel persuaded Jian Chen like this: "But attacking Eri is different, Eri is where the Jīng spirits are now based, we attack Eri, of course the Jīng spirits will not be indifferent, when the time comes, they will not be able to fully assist their allies to attack the Krurod Kingdom, and have to move the Jīng force back to Eri, so, attacking Eeri, in fact, is also buying some more time for the Krurod Kingdom from the side, and if we attack Ery, The strategic significance is not comparable to the sending of troops to the kingdom of Krurod! Without Eri, the Jīng Spirit Kingdom has lost its roots, and even if they retreat to Diya, they are already duckweed with broken roots! It's hard to do anything anymore, because the origin of silver sè Pegasus is Eri! ”

"Silver Sè Pegasus is now the only air power in the Jīng Spirit Kingdom, without Eli, the Silver Sè Pegasus cannot be replenished, the Jīng Spirit Clan army will not be threatened, and the Jīng Spirit Kingdom will not be far from the country of death! And the Kingdom of Bracada will also lose the possibility of obtaining the Silver Sè Pegasus because of this, and its air power will also be affected! At the time of the realm, the three kingdoms of the Holy Alliance were gone, and the air strength was also weakened, but our Entagri Empire could add another air power because of the occupation of Eli! Under the rise of one another, our advantages will be more obvious! ”

Moryl's analysis made Jian Chen's heart flutter, but thinking about the environment in the Erimirin that was not suitable for the combat of the flying troops, Jian Chen couldn't help but be a little worried.

Although there are many races in the Entagri Empire that are now engaged in jungle warfare, such as centaurs, forest dwarves, such as those jīng spirits in the remnants of Farook, and they can also be said to know the terrain of the Erimi Forest in the Entagri Empire, but thinking about the battle in the dark dense forest where even sunlight is difficult to penetrate, and the Jīng Spirit Clan's army that comes and goes like the wind and archery is accurate, and the Jīng Spirit Clan army is fighting against the water, Chen Jian still doesn't have much confidence, I don't know if the defeat of the U.S. army in the Vietnam War impressed him too much, and he subconsciously rejected letting his army fight the enemy in that dark forest, and he always felt that such a war would definitely be a disaster for the Entagri army.

Morriel didn't understand why Jian Chen was so resistant to attacking the Erimirin, when she decided to attack the Tulaone Forest, Jian Chen was very happy, but she didn't dig deeper, because she felt that Jian Chen might have some considerations that she didn't know, so she gave another suggestion that made Jian Chen stunned.

"If we don't want to attack Eri, then we can also directly attack the Bracada Kingdom itself!"

Jian Chen felt that his head was a little dizzy.

He felt that this wife of his was really swearing to attack the Kingdom of Bracada today? He hadn't even thought about this kind of thing, it was the most powerful force among the three kingdoms of the Holy Alliance, and it was constantly showing its amazing strength, even if the Entagre Army in the Saseo region had dealt a heavy blow to the Bracada Army, but Chen Jian didn't think that he had the strength to completely defeat or even destroy this strong enemy in a short period of time.

After all, no matter what, it's one thing to play a tug-of-war with the other party in Krurod, and it's another thing to attack the opponent's homeland, and even the nest has been attacked, so those Bracada magicians and the immortal king Magnus must play with the Entagre army.

But as Morel continued, Jian Chen realized that he was really thinking too much, and Morriel had no intention of destroying the Bracada Kingdom at all.

"The purpose of our attack on the Bracada Kingdom itself is not to destroy the Bracada Kingdom, but to contain it!" Moriel took a moment to admire Jian Chen's somewhat strange face, and continued to say unhurriedly: "Look here! ”

She walked to the large map painted on the wall in Jian Chen's study, and swiped her finger over the large cities in the southern coastal area of the Kingdom of Bracada located under the map: "The Magiers of Bracada never thought that they would be attacked from the sea, although there is no way to take the Ragna pirates at sea, but they are not afraid of the Rigna pirates attacking the shore, they are very confident in the battle on land, so in so many years, for the sake of safety, they have almost built their important cities in the south, Many of them were built on the coast, rather than on the north bordering the Kingdom of Krurod and the Erathian Empire, and even their capital, Celeste, was on the snow-capped mountains not too far from the coastline, which was indeed a wise choice in the past, but now, it has become a fatal weakness for them! ”

"Although they are now aware of this problem and have increased their deployment of troops in the coastal areas, the inverted triangle terrain of the Kingdom of Bracada, which is like a huge peninsula, makes their coastline so long, if we attack from the sea, there are so many landing places to choose from, they will be overwhelmed, and we can attack them from the east and west, so that after they send troops to the Krurod area, We can attack many of their big cities in the south as we please, and when the time comes, what happened to the Krurod army in the northern part of the Kingdom of Bracada will never happen to us, because even if they come to the rescue, we can completely retreat to the sea, and we can definitely deal a heavy blow to them with the guerrilla tactics of repulsion with one blow, greatly weakening their strength and forcing them to attack Krurod with all their strength! ”

At this time, Jian Chen finally realized: "Not only that, what we do in Bracada will also have a serious impact on the dominance of the Bracada magicians, if it is found that the Bracada magicians are actually also likely to be defeated by the Entagre Empire, those other races that have long been dissatisfied with the Bracada magicians will also have the possibility of falling to the side of our Entagre Empire!" ”

Morrill smiled and nodded, "Yes, that's it!" Moreover, whether you decide to attack Eri or Bracada in the end, even if you fail, we can still greatly play a role in the Holy Alliance, and at the same time, as long as you are careful, I think even if you lose, it will not be a big defeat and a fiasco, in your words, we are encircling Wei to save Zhao! Also, before that, we should make some moves in the Krurod area to attract the attention of our opponents, so that when we make a move, the effect will be better! ”

Jian Chen pondered for a while, but thought of another question: "In this case, we don't have to have a head-on conflict with the Krurod Kingdom, but the matter of the Ice Sword will have to be handled by Tanan himself, I don't know if he has a way to get it!" ”

Morrill laughed, "Didn't the intelligence say that he had successfully broken into the upper echelons of the Corg army?" During this time, he was very majestic, and the name Gnison is now very famous in the Krurod Kingdom! Although I don't like him very much, I have to admit that he is a great guy, and he can do it in just a short time! ”

Chen Jian sighed: "That's so, but I think Tanan must be very sad now, no matter what, he always relies on the killing of his clansmen to get to the top so quickly, with his own xìng, although it is his own judgment to take action, but presumably these things are not easy for him!" ”

Chen Jian didn't know that his feelings were true, and during this period of time, Tanan, who was in the Kolg army under the pseudonym Gnison Hún, was really uncomfortable.

With Korg's initiative to participate in the war, the last remaining thoughts in Tanan's heart were finally completely shattered, and after seeing Korg's style of doing things clearly, he understood that it was impossible to take the Ice Sword from Korg's hands by peaceful means.

The only way to take the Ice Sword from Kolg is to take it by force.

Tanan didn't want to see one day the Entagre army and the barbarian army of Korg face off against this sad situation, the current barbarian army, against the powerful Entagre army, has no chance of winning, the result of the war can only be a crushing defeat for the barbarians, he doesn't want to see the barbarians shed a lot of blood at the hands of the Entagri army, and he doesn't want the barbarians to hate the Entagri Empire because of the war, the barbarian clan should welcome a new future with the Entagri Empire, so he decided to bear all the sins himself.

In the wars of the other Krurod lords, the barbarian general named Gnison made a series of meritorious contributions with his fearless style and unexpected strategy, and even once killed a Krurod lord who was known for his bravery, and his use of ballistas and catapults on the battlefield was a must. This made his promotion in the Kolg army as fast as a ballista firing a crossbow arrow.

Soon Gnison became one of the generals in the Kolg army who could stand alone and lead the army, and Körg also did not have any suspicions about this middle-aged barbarian with a thick northern accent, and the experience accumulated over the years made Tanan very clear about how to disguise himself at this time, his conversation, his behavior, made Korg believe that he was just an unborn genius who had been buried in the people before, and sighed greatly for this.

But even so, Tanan still didn't find a chance to attack, Korg was too cautious, he never appeared in front of people with the sword of ice, even on the battlefield, only a very few high-ranking generals who were absolutely trusted by him had the opportunity to approach him, and Gnison, a newly emerging general, obviously did not have such qualifications.

Tanan didn't dare to take risks, if he missed a blow, he would have wasted all his efforts, he had already put in so much effort, and even did not hesitate to let his hands be stained with the blood of his clansmen again, Tanan didn't want to fail, he didn't want to be absolutely sure, he didn't want to make a move.

So he had to wait.

When he learned about Morryll's two plans from Jian Chen, Tanan was of course in favor, and there was no reason for him not to disapprove of the fact that the Ntagrei army did not have to clash head-on with the Krurod army.

In this way, through Worzak's activities in the northern region of Krurod, the Entagri Empire will be better and faster to attract more barbarians to defect.

At the same time, between attacking Eri and attacking Bracada, Tanan prefers the latter, but this is not because of the grudge between the barbarian heroes and the mages of Bracada.

"For the time being, once the attack on Eri is successful, because of the existence of the silver sè Pegasus, of course we can immediately gain more practical benefits, but in the long run, the benefits that can be obtained by attacking Bracada are even more, if we can succeed in inflicting a heavy blow on the Bracada Kingdom, and even shake the faith of all the races in its country like the original Jīng Spirit Kingdom, and let these races fall to our side, the final effect will be, It will be far greater than destroying the Jīng Spirit Kingdom, which is already much less powerful than before, and seizing the origin of the silver sè Pegasus, and we will also change the balance of strength between the three countries of the Holy Alliance because of this, and even shake the foundation of the Holy Alliance, after all, the current Holy Alliance is dominated by the Bracada Kingdom. ”

In a letter to Jian Chen, Tanan explained his opinion and strongly suggested that Jian Chen attack the native of the Mage Kingdom of Bracada.

Jian Chen himself was originally intended to attack the Kingdom of Bracada, but now that he saw that Tanan also had the same idea as himself, he immediately made a decision.

So almost halfway through the autumn of that year, in the kingdom of Crurod, a demigod and half-barbarian hún blood lord named York openly declared that he would take his subjects and territories with him to join the Ntagri Empire.

Subsequently, an army of Entagre appeared on the land of the kingdom of Krurod, and the barbarian army under the lord of York also came to a big change, and the two sides joined forces, and soon swept through some of the surrounding areas.

The kingdom of Krurod shook the nation.

And then something else happened.

Those Lords of Krurod who were already interested in defecting to the Entagre Empire, as well as those people of all ethnic groups of Krurod who yearned for the Entagre Empire, began to march to the territory of the Lord of York, preparing to seek the protection of the Entagri Empire, and even in the southern region of Croude, which was controlled by most of the Kolg, there were some lords who did not have a good impression of the Entagri Empire Under the great pressure of the Korg army, they sent envoys to the territory of the Lord of York, trying to negotiate with the Entagri Empire about defection.

And with the occurrence of these things, the continent of Erathia is once again surging.
