7. Military Spending Problems

Chris restrained his emotions and replied, "Could it be that the Black Coffin will let its allies go?" ”

Maxwell shook his head and said, "No, won't our Longinus be by your side?" He alone is better than thousands of troops. ”

It made a smile on my face, and I told myself to be calm, but it didn't work.

Chris: "We've sent Scouts in, and the lair is so big and intricate that no one knows what its depths are like, Duke Longinus is strong, but he alone doesn't give us peace of mind." ”

I'd love to pat my chest and make sure I'm enough, but the sainthood lasts a day at most, and then I'll be worse than El Salvador.

Chris got up and said, "The black coffin has always been in the rear of the war, so it has developed peacefully so far, think about what our sword and shield will pay for it, dukes, now that we are in trouble, don't you want to make some friendly gestures?" ”

Tifeng walked up to her and stretched out his hand, Chris hesitated for a moment, the two clasped their hands, Tifeng said: "Chris, it was our Longinus who thwarted Batticus, Beken, Scar, Gottlix and other terrible strong enemies along the way, and our Black Coffin also fought for it and shed blood, I don't think we have been hiding behind and not paying." ”

Chris wanted to get rid of Tifeng, but Tifeng increased his strength and did not let go, saying: "I don't ask for much, just your military plan of action, the purpose of this operation - who is the head of the enemy?" How are you going to close this nest? What's the worst outcome for us? ”

Chris gritted his teeth and said, "Longley Helsing." ”

Maxwell, who was present, whistled, which was his habit when he was surprised. Mai Zong leaned forward and listened more carefully.

Typhon let go of Chris, her eyes full of unease, and she asked, "Longley Helsing?" He's alive? ”

Chris replied loudly, "Not only is he alive, but he has terrifying powers, much stronger than he used to be." It was he who opened this demonic lair himself. ”

I deliberately pretended to be stupid and secretly asked Michael, "Have you heard of this man?" ”

Michael said, "I don't know. ”

I asked Le Gang secretly, and Le Gang said, "I've only heard of him, but these old blood clans know him." ”

Maxwell laughed, "This guy was funny, he almost killed his whole family at his coronation, and I was there at the time, right in the Vatican's Cathedral Square, and that scene really made me laugh out of my teeth." Really, seeing the most sacred place of mankind became a big joke, and I felt like I was attending a grand Venice carnival. ”

Mai Zong: "I heard that he disappeared into a demon city, and if he is still alive, it means that the demon's power has benefited him a lot, interesting, very interesting, and I am very interested in this person." ”

The two of them actually talked about this Longley Helsing, just like they discussed the idol star in a TV series.

Chris interrupted their chat, saying, "We believe that the Epoch Empire intends to form a large army from this lair, and there may be more than 10,000 demons by that time, who have been rigorously trained by the Demon Envoy and effectively organized, to attack our Eastern District, coupled with the ferocious firepower of the Anno Empire, their goal is not only the Eastern District, and then they will go to Bonza and completely destroy us." Before those demons are trained and controlled, we will use this chaotic period to find the inner heart of this lair and destroy it with the weapons of the Nine Hermits. ”

Tifeng: "It sounds like you need an elite death squad, not an army of hundreds or thousands. ”

Chris replied with his head held high: "The plan is still being worked out, and we need a lot of resources before we can do it." ”

At this point, she said with a burning eye, "As an ambassador from the allies, I hope that the Council of Elders will vote to set the course as soon as possible, this is a moment to test our friendship and an opportunity for us to unite as humanity." ”

Michael said, "I agree. ”

Le Gang then said: "I agree. ”

I laughed and said, "I happened to travel once at public expense, so I have to go." ”

"I agree, I'll be there too," Mai Zong said. ”

This surprised me greatly, and the other elders were equally stunned, and Maxwell said, "You actually leave the Black Coffin?" ”

Mai Zong did not answer, he was very deep in the study of demons, and he would never miss such an opportunity.

Typhon and Maxwell agreed, the minority obeyed the majority, and there was no point in their objections, but Christina's dissatisfaction with Typhon was palpable.

Ti Feng sighed: "Nana, we have to have a good talk, you know that I have to be responsible for the Black Coffin, especially for every penny of the Black Coffin's military expenses." In the face of business, I can't just take care of sisterhood. ”

Chris nodded, "I totally understand." "She doesn't look like she understands at all.

"I propose to send two thousand rangers, carrying five days' worth of ammunition and provisions, each armed with sixteen Excalibur shells, and in three days set out with the knights of the Sword and Shield Society to Hargrim. ”

I felt that Chris exuded gratitude and seemed pleased with it. There are 5,000 rangers in the Black Coffin, which can be said to be a very generous arrangement.

Tifeng shook his head and said, "Do you know how much money is needed for this?" ”

Le Gang bowed slightly and said, "I'm not good at this. ”

Ti Feng said: "Let's put it this way, fighting a war is burning money, if this trip goes well, we will burn a whole year's military spending, if it doesn't go well, our military schools may be closed." If the whole army is wiped out – and I'm not cursing ourselves – the Black Coffin's military strength will be slumped for ten years. ”

Chris said angrily again: "We are both prosperous and loss-oriented!" Why are you so careful? ”

Tifeng: "You're thinking too simply! We have managed to build a black coffin financial system and operate it steadily, and we can't just pat it on the head and destroy it overnight. ”

She was incredibly persuasive, and I realized that Tiphon was right, and that it wasn't trying to make things difficult for Chris, but that we had to make sure that this battle had to be fought, and that we had to do our best, not rush into it. Money is also a certain faith, a belief shared by nearly 60,000 people in the Black Coffin, and the power of this faith is so strong that if it is lost, the end is nearing for the Black Coffin.

Le Gang asked: "Then how do you think we should send troops?" ”

Tiphon said: "Only one person was sent Longinus. ”

No matter how good Chris is, he seems to want to draw a knife.

Tiphon smiled and said, "My silly sister, so be it, a thousand rangers, five days of ammunition, seven days of food, twenty Excalibur shells, and send out Yune, which is now equipped with artillery, which can be worth an entire regiment." ”

Due to the outdated notion that the Sword and Shield Society will be, they need our strong fire support. Chris sighed and accepted the hard-earned kindness.

Le Gang said: "I will personally lead the troops." ”

Chris whispered a thank you.

Mai Zong suddenly said, "I will send another five hundred people to guard the laboratory." ”

Ti Feng looked at Mai Zong, as if he was forcing him to retract this sentence, but Mai Zong did not say a word.

Tifeng said, "I don't have the extra money to deal with your whims. ”

Mai Zong replied, "You don't have to worry about the cost, I will bear it." ”

Maxwell laughed, "It's a good idea to use demons against demons." ”

At this point, we have decided that we will send a total of 1,500 men, led by three elders, which can be regarded as righteousness.

Tiphon walked up to Nana and said, "Sister, I invite you to have dinner. ”

"I still have a lot of work to do," Chris said. ”

Tiphon took her hand and said, "Don't be so cold, my good sister. You know I'm not trying to embarrass you..."

The more I watched, the more shocked I became, knowing that the weeping finance was as fragile as tissue paper in the face of Tifeng's methods.

The cry can only send a hundred people, and the battle is a little colder than the black coffin, but it is undoubtedly full of sincerity. People in the economic department always say that they are short of money, otherwise I will buy those mercenaries in the wilderness to make up for it. The mask says that there is no shortage of outlaws in this era, but why don't outlaws want to live a comfortable and peaceful life? Give them something to eat, a place to live, a gun, and they will die for you.

I had to get back to crying as soon as possible and start preparing.

I entered Henry's mansion, which had become a smash hit for the black coffin, and was admired by Betty's detailed description. They can't break in, so they wander outside the house, and if they can, they will take pictures, and even ask people to draw a portrait of themselves.

This ghost street is now a prime location, housing prices are soaring, and I go in and out of the shadows, hiding from people, which is really inconvenient.

However, watching the foolish people bow and worship, it makes people's hearts warm and has a stable sense of happiness. If it weren't for the teleportation here, I'd turn this place into a haunted house playground....

Suddenly, the web of madness turned into a tidal current, flooding everything, everything in front of me dissipated, and I fell into a turbulent vision.

It was Soles and Cheris.

I asked them to investigate the nursery, what happened to them? Is the mad web trying to warn me?

The nursery was surrounded by pitch-black trees, thorny and vine-strewn, and the playground was rusty and heart-wrenching.

There were five of them, and Number Seven was not among them.

Soles said, "The big man is gone, where did he go?"

Cheris replied, "Who knows? Beloved, this monster is uncontrollable, it only listens to the Duke alone. ”

Solace quickened her pace and moved away from Cheris, who shouted, "Honey!" Quickly caught up with her.

Solace ignores him, and Cheris is humble and like a minion. I've always been unhappy with him pestering Soles, but now I'm a little pitiful for him.

Soles said sternly, "I told you that in front of outsiders, call me sir."

"Yes, sir."

His slightly humorous tone didn't make Soles laugh, and she said, "Alert them all, I don't feel right here."
