News of the victory on the front line has spread with the return to the City of Angels, and Edie is preparing to hold a huge celebration to ease the demoralization caused by the news of the orc attack. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In the castle, as soon as Xiao Yi returned to the castle, he ordered the attendants to invite Viscount Winchester, Baron Antonis, and Barrett to the study for a secret conversation.

"Congratulations! Dear Lord Falken, you have won a great victory! After seeing Xiao Yi, Viscount Winchester couldn't wait to send his praise.

Since Xiao Yi expressed his support for anyone pursuing Lady Isabelle, Viscount Winchester's attitude towards Xiao Yi has returned to his initial enthusiasm.

"You are a true warrior!" Baron Antonis was like a close friend, stretched out his fist, punched Xiao Yi, and then shook each other's wrists: "I think this time should have a cup of wine instead of black tea, what do you say?" ”

After speaking, the three of them laughed, and after a hypocritical politeness, Xiao Yi's face gradually became serious: "Two of you, there will be a fine wine, at tonight's dinner, let's not get drunk or go home, let's talk about business now." ”

Raising his eyebrows, Viscount Winchester sat down again, nodded to Baron Antonis, and his face became serious. He understood that Xiao Yi wanted to talk about going to Lordaeron, if it wasn't for the attack of the orcs, I'm afraid they would have already boarded the goblin merchant ship bound for Kalimdor.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yi glanced at Barrett and took out two prepared diplomatic documents from his arms, which had been stamped with sealing wax with his coat of arms.

"Two gentlemen, first of all, I am here to solemnly apologize to the two of you and the kingdom of the two, I am afraid that I will not be able to go to Lordaeron in person, I have broken my trust in this matter."

Saying that, Xiao Yi stood up and bowed slightly to the two of them: "In the letter to His Majesty King Minahir and His Royal Highness Prince Ureon, I explained the reason and expressed my deep apologies. I will then send my Chief Minister, Mr. Barrett, to Lordaeron to represent me in Lordaeron, and to visit the royal families and nobles of both countries with my gifts and greetings. ”

Baron Antonis frowned, but did not speak. Viscount Winchester's face was also very bad, Xiao Yi Falken had already sent a letter that he was going to Lordaeron in person, and at this time Xiao Yi actually repented, he felt that His Majesty would be very disappointed in him.

"Your Excellency Falken, I think you should go to Lordaeron yourself." Viscount Winchester glanced at Antonis indifferently: "I believe you also know that the royal family of the Stormwind Kingdom does not record your family coat of arms, and your legal identity still needs to be affirmed by His Royal Highness Prince Ureon." ”

"Yes! My friend, of course, you need not worry about this, and I am confident that your merit will be sufficient for His Royal Highness to recognize the legitimacy of the Iron Cross of the Falken family, provided that you show the slightest bit of loyalty. Baron Antonis immediately picked up Baron Winchester's words.

Shaking his head, Xiao Yi showed a yearning look on his face: "I have always heard that Lordaeron is the center of the human kingdom, and the prosperity there is comparable to the largest trading port of the goblins, and the architecture there is so beautiful that even the High Elves are amazed. ”

Then his face fell, and he had a sullen expression: "But the damn orcs have ruined my plans!" I had no choice but to send someone who was strong enough to represent my will and who was in the right capacity. ”

Xiao Yi pointed at Barrett and said, "My chief minister turned out to be the steward of the owner of the Tower of Azula, and I believe that he is familiar enough with the gentlemen of Stormwind City to be able to visit His Majesty the King with the highest respect. ”

Barrett, who had been standing behind Xiao Yi, took a step forward, and then bowed to the two of them very standardly, with a gentle smile on his face all the time, and the etiquette was beyond reproach.

Baron Winchester nodded to Barrett with a smile, and then said to Xiao Yi: "I didn't understand, my honorable Excellency, weren't the orcs defeated by you and your army?" ”

"Yes, I also saw that you seem to have brought back the head of a red dragon." Baron Antonis also nodded and said.

Shrugging his shoulders, Xiao Yi said in a very serious and sad tone: "Yes, yes, we repelled the orcs and caused the orcs to lose two red dragons. There was not a hint of pleasure in his tone:

"But the hell knows how many orcs there are in the Elwyn Forest! We need to keep an eye on the enemy's movements and avoid giving them a chance. ”

Baron Antonis nodded, seemingly agreeing with Xiao Yi's words, his eyes rolled and he suggested: "I understand you very well, my friend, and I am sure that His Royal Highness the Prince will praise you for your due diligence." ”

Xiao Yi thanked him with a friendly smile.

"But I think it would be better for you to change the emissary, such as the beautiful Lady Isabelle, whose charm will surely drive the gentlemen of Lordaeron mad!" Baron Antonis smiled and said his purpose.

Viscount Winchester's eyes lit up, he glanced at Antonis approvingly, and then turned his gaze to Xiao Yi with some expectation.

"Nope! I think Mr. Barrett is more suitable for the job, and Ms. Isabel has other priorities! Xiao Yi did not hesitate to reject Antonis's suggestion.

Before Antonis could speak again, Barrett stepped forward and said with a smile, "I wonder how Sir Wellman's body is?" I remember that my master had enchanted a cane for him, and he was a very kind gentleman. ”

Then the old man looked puzzled: "But I didn't know that he had a black-haired child?" ”

Baron Antonis' face turned pale, and then he said with some displeasure: "My identity has been recognized by His Royal Highness the Prince and Sir Lothar, and it is legally inherited from my father, there is no doubt that it is legitimate!" ”

Barrett smiled and bowed his head in understanding, then retreated to his place, silent.

Baron Antonis had likewise lost interest in speaking, and it was evident that Barrett's words were an offense to him, and his countenance could easily tell his mood at this moment.

"Dear Lord Falcon, we regret that you were not able to return to Lordaeron with us, as we lost a lot of fun on our journey." The atmosphere was a little awkward, and Viscount Winchester hurriedly diverted the topic:

"I wonder if the beautiful lady Isabel will be at today's dinner? Your Excellency, I am leaving this magical city, and I wonder if I will have the privilege of reciting a poem for Ms. Isabel once again? ”

"I'm sorry, ma'am, I'm afraid I'm very busy right now......"

---------------------------

And what is Ms. Isabel doing, which everyone is discussing?

"Bang!" The fist wrapped in iron armor slammed into the solid wood command table, and the dagger and scroll on the edge of the table bounced twice.

"Commander Sharif! It's the funniest joke I've heard this year! Isabel put on her armor again, with an angry look on her face, and a rude curse came out of her mouth:

"Have you learned all your military literacy in the dog's head! The chaotic army formation, the chaotic command system, the city lord thinks every day that the dragon god blesses the building and sends troops and then pushes the world sideways, do you also make trouble together! ”

Sharif stood with his head bowed, his face ashamed, but he could not find the slightest reason to contradict Ms. Isabelle.

"Ma'am, it's useless to get angry now, what we need to do now is to quickly complete the formation of the army, and when the conscripts arrive, we can quickly complete the organization." Edric hurriedly stood up to play the round, but when he saw Isabelle's unkind gaze looking at him, he had to bite the bullet and say:

"According to your plan, we should launch an offensive in a week to avoid the enemy from reassembling a new army."

Taking two deep breaths, Isabel suppressed the anger in his heart, thought for a while, and said quickly: "It's too late to divide the military branches, or according to the three major categories of archers, swords and shields, and spears. ”

As she spoke, she personally picked up the carbon pen and began to write out her plans one by one, and explained responsibly: "The soldiers who are scheduled to be conscripted are 30,000, all of whom have undergone basic military training and can skillfully use spears and swords and shields, so the simple plan is 10,000 swords and shields, 10,000 spears, and 10,000 marksmen." ”

"For every 5,000 men for a legion, there shall be a regimental commander; Each regiment was divided into ten teams, each with 500 men and a master officer; A team is divided into five brigades, each with 100 people, and a team leader; Each team is divided into ten squads, each team has ten people, and there is a team leader. “

As she spoke, she slapped this not-so-detailed army plan on General Edric's chest: "Take it and let the lord give each legion lifeblood!" And in the future, the soldiers will be managed according to this system! It doesn't matter if it's an ordinary Signman or an elite soldier trained by the Legion's Acropolis! ”

"Yes! Lady! Edric replied loudly, and then said with some confusion: "I remember that there is no training space for sword and shield soldiers in the Acropolis, do you mean?" ”

Isabel nodded, the role of heavily armed sword and shield soldiers on the battlefield cannot be underestimated, and as the former queen of the Griffin Empire, the infantry under her command using swords and shields is the backbone of the Griffon Empire's army.

Although the Legion Guard's long contradictory card combination can be more effective against large or fast-charging cavalry, when facing enemy infantry, especially heavy infantry, once the enemy breaks through the spear blockade and enters hand-to-hand combat, the Legion Guardian often has to discard the spear and use the less proficient longsword to fight the enemy.

So after Isabel learned about the current military configuration of the City of Angels, he immediately thought of the sword and shield infantry of the Griffin Empire!
