Chapter 264: Secrets
Frightened by Twilight's speculation, Sinsai immediately sought out Grand Duke Sinman, the ruler of Soth City.
"Are you saying that the Scourge Legion led by Teglisa is very likely to use air superiority to directly enter the Splendid Mountains and Red Soil Heights?" Hearing New Sain's words, Xinman turned his head and asked Twilight sternly, his body unconsciously exuding the momentum of a superior person.
"Isn't it, just send someone to take a look." Of course, Twilight can't pack a ticket for this kind of thing.
After hearing Twilight's words, Simon turned his head to look at New Sain, and when he saw that New Sain also nodded, he said to one of the guards beside him, "Bode, send a team of cavalry to the splendid mountains and forests as fast as possible."
"Yes, Lord Duke." Bode thumped his right hand on his chest and saluted, then strode out.
After Pod walked out, Twilight thought for a moment and said, "Grand Duke, I feel like our defensive strategy should be changed."
"Tell me!" Grand Duke Simman sat down in his chair and waved his hand, Twilight could see a hint of fatigue in his expression, after all, Simman was old, and when he got the news that Dreyus and Tegrisa had taken refuge in the Scourge of the Dead and raised the butcher's knife to his people, Simman didn't believe it at first, but he had watched Dreyus and Tegrisa grow up.
"Our initial arrangement was based on the great loss of strength in Thorn Mountain due to the undead natural disaster, so we decided to build the fortifications between Thorn Mountain and Soth City, but now I am afraid it will not work." Twilight glanced at Simman as she spoke, and when she saw that she was listening, she continued:
"If the Undead Disaster really directly crosses the peak between the Thorn Mountain and the Splendid Mountain Forest and enters the Splendid Mountain Forest, then they will get at least more than 100,000 fresh troops, which will be difficult to resist with our current strength halfway."
"You want to rely on the city of Thos for defense?" Simon glances at Twilight, revealing the idea to Twilight when she first returned two days ago.
Seeing Twilight nodding, Simon asked, "If you defend in Soth City, what will happen to the villagers in the surrounding towns?"
"You can move them all to Soth City." Twilight Road.
"Can there still be so many people in Soth City? Where do they get their food from?" Simon asks again, leaving Twilight speechless for a moment.
If the undead natural disaster really came from the splendid mountain forest, they could directly cut off the supply from the royal city, and now that most of the dwarves have entered the city of Soth, it has already overcrowded some people in the city of Soth.
"Bora City, Vastner may be able to provide us with some support." Twilight thought about it for a moment, and there was a road to the east of Darius to the southeast of Soth, which led to Fort Guò and Fort Mer, to the north was Duke Matthew's Vastna, and to the south was the trading state of Bora.
"It's unrealistic, let's not talk about the distance, let's just talk about Matthew and Alexia, the two of them are not light people who can help people." Simman blows his beard and says that he directly classifies Twilight's mention yì into an unrealistic statement.
"But the Grand Duke, we have only one way now, and now that the kingdom is facing difficulties, I don't think Duchess Alexia and Duke Matthew will stand idly by." Twilight said in a somewhat urgent tone, feeling that the old man was too stubborn.
"I have my own decision on the matter of the undead natural disaster, and I will talk about it when Pod returns." Sinman got up as he spoke, and walked back.
Twilight smiled angrily at Xinman's actions, and he turned to New Sain and said, "Teacher, if the Scourge Legion really enters the Splendid Mountains and Forests, we will definitely not be able to withstand it, and I think they will definitely not let go of the Red Earth Heights, where more than 100,000 soldiers of humans and orcs have been buried."
Listening to Twilight's words, New Sain also frowned, the problem now is that Grand Duke Simman obviously doesn't want to bring the war to Soth City, and the most important thing is that Simman doesn't have an intuitive understanding of the undead scourge.
"Your tone just now was a little anxious, Xin Man is also a grand duke no matter what he says, how can he let you be commanded by a hairy boy." New Sein said as he walked out of the City Lord's Mansion.
Walking on the road, New Sain looked at Twilight, who was bowing her head and pondering, and thought, "Do you know the name of Duke Matthew's family?"
Twilight looked up and shook her head at New Sain's words, he had never heard what Duke Matthew's family was, only that they had been in Vastner.
Seeing Twilight's curiosity, New Sein continued, "Matthew's family is called St. Caesar, according to legend, Matthew's family has been handed down from ancient times, and Matthew's ancestor Kemp. Saint. Caesar was the right-hand man of Danas the Great at that time, and his strength was even stronger than that of Danas the Great, it can be said that the establishment of Darius was inseparable from the wise Danas the Great, but it was also inseparable from the help of Camper, and even Danas the Great personally promised the kingdom and Kemp at that time. Saint. Caesar divided and ruled equally. ”
"Danas the Great must have lost his word in the end, he did not fulfill his promise." Twilight affirms.
Hearing Twilight's words, New Sain smiled, "Not long after Darius was established, Kemp. Saint. Caesar had some fundamental disagreements with Danas the Great, and finally Camp threatened to split the kingdom of Darius, for the stability of the kingdom, Danas the Great defeated Camp, but the Emperor did not embarrass the saint because of the old feelings. The people of the House of Caesar, instead assigned them to Vastna, hundreds of years passed, St. The Caesar family has been accumulating their strength in Vastna, so although each king of Darius is polite to them, he is secretly guarding against anomalies. ”
Twilight's lips were pouted by New Sain's words, history was written by the victors, and in his opinion it was Danas I and St. The people of the Caesar family had a dispute over power, and the last bitter dispute came down to the defeat of Campu, and the St. The Caesar family was also exiled to Vastna, which was still desolate at the time. As for the later records, it is estimated that it is just to make their food look better, and these people in power are really the most unrestrained people, the most undisciplined people.
Although she complained in her heart, Twilight also heard the hidden meaning from New Sain, just now Archduke Simman did not agree to him to ask for help from Vastner and Bora City, it is estimated that it is because of this reason, it can be seen that these hardcore of the Danas royal family are very wary of the Matthew family, and the saint. The Caesar family must also have their own ambitions, and it must be true that they have been quietly accumulating strength, otherwise the royal family of Danas would not have been so wary of them.
"So what do we do now?" Twilight asks.
"Let's wait for news from Bode, if your guess really comes true, we have to continue to ask for help from the royal city." New Sein sighed lightly, and twice in a row to conquer the undead disaster, not only did the two princes fold in, but also the entire kingdom was overstretched.
"By the way, did I let you drop your territorial troops?"
"Ah, I've sent the griffon messenger, and I guess I'm almost there." Twilight says (to be continued......)
