Chapter 353: Provocation and Discord
The Luli Sutra is certainly not a Krip Cabinet. She is Moriel, who repeats her old tricks, and the magician who breaks their mouths is Antonio.
Fernande didn't realize that the beautiful female leader of this red-haired black-winged mercenary group would actually be Moryl, the dragon queen of Megatron Negan and even the Megatron Continent.
When Morriel really rose back then, she had already turned into a dragon body, and her true face was not widely known to Negan, and Fernand had never seen the body of the dragon queen at all, so of course he couldn't recognize this. The red-haired woman is Moryl, the dragon queen who once made her fearful.
And now Moryl has long hair, her temperament has changed a little, and her whole temperament has also changed, not to mention the person she used to recognize. Even Antonio, a subordinate who has followed her for many years, feels that the current dragon queen is a little unfamiliar. And the news that she had died was so deeply rooted that Moriel didn't care about showing her true face at all.
Fenander was only the first target in her and Jian Chen's plan, and the reason why she chose Fenander was because this guy's territory was not far from the undersea pass. It is convenient to travel back and forth, on the other hand, his territory is close to the sea, which is convenient for the alliance to secretly make some small moves from the sea in the future.
What's more, this small force of Fernand was originally one of the several targets that Morriel wanted to secretly annex when he was preparing to make a comeback, and did quite a lot of research on this small force for this purpose, and also had a good understanding of Fernand's temperament, after Antonio and others arrived at Negan. In addition to trying to gather Moriel's old department, the first thing to do was to re-investigate Fernand's forces, and after learning that Fernand's forces had not changed much, and that the mercenary group was being recruited, Moriel, who felt that this was a good opportunity, asked Chen Jian's consent. Immediately took a small group of his old subordinates and set off to return to Negan in the starry night.
For Fernand, he likes to find talent from mercenaries. He also likes these two weaknesses that can be exploited by self-righteousness, and after deliberately exposing some flaws, Mozer succeeded in gaining the initial trust of the other party.
But this alone will not work, Moriel's plan is to take some of Fernand's military power and become an important general under Fernand.
The strength of the alliance is still too weak, and the army that will go out to fight against Negan is only about 30,000 men. And in Negan, even the smallest lord has tens of thousands of soldiers, although a direct attack can defeat Fernande or other minor lords, but this is too ostentatious, in case other lords find out that the army that defeated Fernande is still a foreign army, maybe other lords will attack it in groups. That's not a good thing.
But if Fernand is controlled. Put him under house arrest and act in his name, and there would be no such problem.
The key is how to gain Fernand's trust, and then try to wipe him out with his henchmen, control his army, and replace him.
If successful, the Alliance's army doesn't even have to travel long distances, as long as Tren manages to come here and make a magic mark, he can directly send troops from the Evermont Islands, which saves a lot of time and the consumption of materials during the march, and does not need to be discovered by other forces when the army is traveling on the road.
Moreover, in this way, the alliance also has enough time to manufacture the chariot envisioned by Chen Jian, and the grain transport cart can also be suspended, and the pressure on the production of the golden man will be greatly reduced.
After that, using this as the Alliance's foothold in Negan, it can gradually infiltrate the forces of other lords, and finally complete the strategic goal set by Mohor to capture Negan.
Morriel knew that Tren was the key person in the Alliance's free movement between the Evermont Islands and the continent of Erathia, and his existence had an extraordinary meaning to the Alliance and to Jian Chen. The elements are calculated, in her opinion, Tren alone is enough to withstand tens of thousands of troops, the army is gone, and then recruit troops, if Tren has an accident. It would not be an easy task to find another water magic master to pledge allegiance to Jian Chen.
Lose Tren. It is equivalent to the alliance losing the important mineral land of Baierdes, and if the alliance wants to return to the mainland, it can only go through the difficult sea route. This kind of loss is unbearable for the alliance and for Chen Jian.
As a result, Chen Jian himself proposed to let Tren participate in the plan to capture Negan, although it was risky, but the benefits were also obvious.
His plan was for Acerena to take the archangels warriors to escort Tren through the undersea tunnel when the time came, and he didn't believe it, and his combat power was strong. Able to fly, and the archangel army with the ability to resurrect, plus one, the water magic master, what kind of accident can there be in the undersea tunnel, even if you can't beat a powerful enemy, you can always run away, right?
So the revised security plan was thus settled.
Morrill also has a problem with how to gain Fernand's trust, and she is ready to provoke Fernand's relationship with several other minor lords around her. As long as the war starts, it will be time to show itself, and the war can also be used to secretly clear some of it
She has long been familiar with these methods. Before coming to Fernand's place, he had already made arrangements in secret, and Eracher was now leading a small army of Negan under the banner of Fernand to hide somewhere, waiting for the right time.
Fernand knew nothing about that. He was basking in the joy of having found another great talent, and he was complacent.
He is now completely captivated by the outstanding performance of Mohor, who goes by the alias Chrissy.
He found this, the woman is simply a natural general, first of all, her martial arts skills are quite good. One of the generals with the highest martial arts skills under her command could not support her for long before she was defeated. An ordinary long sword "came to her hands, but it became an invincible weapon of destruction."
Then there was her command, and the nearly 100 mercenaries were completely subservient to her, under her command. The combat effectiveness of this mercenary group is amazing. In the simulated confrontation that Fernande tried to probe her, she led these mercenaries to destroy the other mercenaries who far outnumbered them.
What's more, she has always behaved very well, and Fernande secretly sent people to monitor her and did not find any misdeeds on this woman, in addition to exercising her martial arts every day, she is to scrape and train her mercenaries.
And her practice method is also very special, at least Fernande has never heard of such a training method, curiosity when he inquired, only to know that this is the training method in Jedt's army, and he was overjoyed to let those recruited recruits practice in this way for a while. It turned out that the effect was very good, and it made him almost laugh out loud in his dreams.
Just as he was contemplating whether to try to make this Chrissy loyal to him, the bad news made him angry.
For some unknown reason, a lord next to him suddenly sent a rather strongly worded letter, accusing him of sending troops to plunder his territory, and demanding an explanation for the matter and corresponding compensation, otherwise he would take military action in self-defense.
This, the sudden accusation of the human lord named Jeffrey made Fernand angry. In this alliance of small lords that Fernande is in, the most powerful lord is Jeffrey, and Fernande's strength can only be regarded as ranking in the middle and upper reaches among more than a dozen lords, which is not particularly eye-catching.
And the reason why Fernande is recruiting troops aggressively. On the one hand, it is to strengthen its strength and prepare to resist the invasion of the great lords again, but it is more important. Just to guard against this neighbor Jeffrey. The conflict between the two families was not once or twice, and Fernande knew that the other side was always looking for opportunities to provoke him, because he had his eye on his two towns on the border, which were large in population and had fertile land. Jeffrey had been salivating over it for a long time. If it weren't for his own strength being not bad, Jeffrey was afraid that he would lose his strength in the fight, and he would be in the way of the alliance's face, so he might have already done it.
Now the other party should not be able to bear it, and even came up with such a bad excuse, and threatened each other with force, it seems that he has finally made up his mind to let go and do a big job, Fernande knows that he may not be an opponent, so he is actively preparing for war, while asking for help from other lords in the alliance, wanting to borrow the power of the alliance to prevent Jeffrey from doing stupid things at such a time.
But what made Fernande almost faint out of breath was it. Geoffrey had already sued the other lords first, accusing Fernander of raiding friendly countries in spite of the alliance, and he didn't know how he bribed the other lords, and the other lord bordering Fernande actually signed a joint accusation with Jeffrey, claiming that Fernand's army had been raiding villages on their borders from time to time in recent times. The style is extremely arrogant.
Accused by two lords at the same time, the other lords in the alliance were all biased towards Geoffrey for a while. blamed Fernand, and then demanded that Fernand immediately compensate the other party for the loss and promise that similar things would not happen in the future.
At this point, Fernande couldn't help but be angry, he really couldn't understand what was going on, could it really be that an army under his own banner had plundered the territory of Jeffrey and another lord?
But he knew very well that he didn't send someone to do such an idiotic thing, and he also knew that his generals would never secretly run out to make extra money without his permission.
"This is slander! It's a conspiracy! This is definitely a naked conspiracy! They're trying to join forces against me! That army is simply disguised by themselves! Damn Jeffrey! Such a deliberate calculation of me! I'm at odds with you! ”
Fernand roared in his castle.
"Even if you really want to fight, I'm still afraid that you won't be able to?"
Outside the castle, Morriel was in her tent, lit a secret letter from Ellacher on a candle, muttering to herself.
"It's about to begin"
