Chapter 242: Decision-making

He showed the golden badge on his neckline and wanted to gain the trust of others in the Imperial City, which was undoubtedly an extremely effective method, and everyone knew that the members of the Capet family did not need to deceive others with lies.

"Golden Lion ......" Old Sopa's pupils shrank, how could he not recognize the family emblem of the Capet family, this young man was actually a member of the Capet family, why didn't he have an impression of him?

"This is the seal of the descendants of the lineage. Old Sopa didn't dare to touch Rand's collar with trembling hands, and he was a little frightened: "Who are you from the Duke of Winton?"

Rand smiled and whispered a few words in Old Sopa's ear.

Old Sopa's expression changed from panic to shock, and then from shock to incredulity.

He stared at Rand's face, trying to see a trace of the past in the other's face.

"Are you really the second son of the Duke? I remember what you used to be, a little ...... Some ......" Old Sopa muttered for a long time, and he didn't come up with the right words to describe it, for old Soppa, who had been living in the Imperial City, how could he not have heard of the deeds of the bastard son of the Duke of Winton, but from the young man in front of him, he couldn't see any performance that matched those evil words.

"It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous, you think I'm a guy with eyes above the top?" Rantt smiled, "Lord Craftsman, you know, people change with age. ”

"This ......" Old Sopa paused, realizing that he really thought so, and apologized, "I'm sorry, it's my fault." ”

"It's not your fault, no one would have thought that a guy who didn't learn anything would get better. Rand shrugged his shoulders very indifferently, "I think it's better to talk about ore than about my changes." ”

......

"What do you think?" said Lionburg, the deputy commander of the Command, Goff, as he stood at his desk and handed a written report to the Duke of Winton, "This is a plan made by several commanders after several discussions. ”

When the Duke of Winton was in his office, he was filled with that awe-inspiring aura, and he quietly grasped the few pieces of parchment and read them carefully word by word.

Even if he frowned when he was tired, it could cause a wave of panic among his subordinates.

"Have you read this plan from the Ministry of Works?" the Duke of Winton placed it lightly on the table, closed his eyes, and looked a little tired.

Being the leader of a family is a very tiring thing, and you have to maintain your spirit in front of outsiders, even if you are injured and tired, you have to pretend to be strong.

The feeling that the burden of the whole family is on one person.

You can't fall down, you can't retreat, you can't get tired, you can't get tired.

The Duke of Winton yawned and wiped his face with a towel with warm water.

"The Ministry of Works said it had no objection, but because of the season, the progress of the construction of the fortifications may be slower," Goff, after a pause, then explained, "because the rainy season is approaching, and rain and mud will hinder transportation and excavation." ”

"It's okay to slow down," said the Duke of Winton, reclining in his chair and finding a comfortable position, and let out a long sigh of relief, "Tell Gehr that he must personally supervise the construction of this city, and nothing can go wrong." ”

The brother nodded, and then seemed to remember something: "So, is the nearest air crossing territory also within the scope of this reconstruction?"

"Empty Ferry Leader......" Duke Winton raised his eyebrows and thought for a moment, "If I'm not mistaken, there's a body of water right next to it. ”

"Serra River. Gofff then said.

"The water is a natural barrier. Duke Winton nodded, "Although my second son is not very successful, with the help of natural danger, it is not a problem to defend his territory. ”

"What I'm most worried about is that it's Lindong City. The Duke of Winton's words surprised his brother-in-law.

Lindong City is commanded by Ron, the town is guarded by tens of thousands of cavalry of the Seventh Legion, and there are powerful water troops, with a skeleton flag that has crisscrossed the sea for many years, which is terrifying.

My brother couldn't think of anything to worry about in such a majestic city.

If the Imperial City is the most prosperous city of the Capet family, then Lindong City is the city with the strongest military strength of the Capet family.

Since Ron took office, he has built the East City like an iron bucket, and even the First Legion, which is known as the strongest combat force of the Capet family, has been somewhat unable to suppress the sudden rise of the Seventh Legion in terms of combat readiness and resource combat power.

The soldiers are strong enough to push thousands of miles.

What is the Duke worried about?

Gofu couldn't figure out what Duke Winton was thinking, but he knew his position very well, and what he should tell himself, Lord Duke would definitely tell him.

If you shouldn't know, you can't even ask.

"If the coalition forces of the Holy See are to enter Tieliu, then the only way to go down the waterway is to cross the well-defended Gucci Mountains," the Duke of Winton opened his eyes, and he pointed to the cyan line on the map, which indicated the location of the Maraner Sea, "Straight down the Maraner Sea, there are many territories along the way, but they are all followers of the Holy See. ”

"The location, Eagle Cliff Harbour. Duke Winton pointed to a point above, "This is the outermost part of the Capetian family's rule, and it is also the most suitable area for war. ”

"That body of water has always been watched over by Ron. ”

"The Holy See's army will definitely go to war with the Seventh Legion there," the Duke of Winton paused, staring at the dot on the map in silence, his brow furrowed.

Gofu didn't see anything unusual, since the Duke of Winton already knew the route that the Holy See wanted to take to enter Tieliu in the future, why was he so cautious.

"Ron is so desperate to prove himself with a war, he's too competitive. This is where he excels and can also become fatal. Duke Winton let out a long sigh: "A too smooth upbringing will cause him to let his guard down and misjudge his enemies." ”

The arsenal is almost the arsenal, the armament, the military detachment, the military service, the military armyArmy, Army,
