However, now Emperor Higg has no time to complain about Raphael's low-level mistakes, he immediately convened a meeting of the military bosses to discuss how to deal with the current situation, and the military bosses at the meeting were also divided into two factions, one faction believes that reinforcements must be sent immediately, otherwise Lua City may not last long, and the main ones who hold this view are some old and serious generals, they believe that Lua City has been an inseparable territory of Higg since ancient times, and must not tolerate foreign invasions, and the other faction advocates that the empire abandon Lua City, these generals are young and vigorous, and they are dissatisfied with the Holy See, and they think that this war against the elves is the fault of the Holy See from beginning to endAt the same time, they also know the significance of Lua City to the Holy See, even if Higg gives up, the Holy See will not give up easily, and from another point of view, the elves will not stay for a long time even if they occupy Lua City, after all, except for the Elf Forest, other areas are not suitable for elves to survive, so give up Lua City for a short time, let the elves and the Holy See fight, and by the way, it may be a good thing to remove the Holy See's poison in the east of Hig, and the Hig Empire has preserved its strength, and it can reap the benefits of the fisherman, why not。 Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

On the one hand, he also felt that it was inappropriate to give up Lua City, after all, Lua City still belonged to Higg, and Higg was still exercising military power over it, but on the other hand, this was indeed a great opportunity to hit the prestige of the Holy See, and he did feel unhappy with Cardinal Raphael, and he wanted to knight him without Raphael's nod, if he could take the opportunity to weaken the Holy See's power in Higg, it would be a good way in the long run。

While the War Department was arguing and Boothman Rolland was hesitating, the War Department and His Majesty Boothman Rolland received a letter at the same time from General Trorens, who was still in the city of Marin.

After reading the contents of the letter, the quarrel within the military department finally stopped, and His Majesty Busman Roland also made up his mind.

Regarding the dispatch of troops to rescue the city of Lua, the old general gave his own analysis in the letter:

Lua City is not only of great value to the Holy See, but also important to the Hig Empire, it is not only the largest city in the east of the Hig Empire, but also the base of the Hig Empire to deal with the Bols Horse Bandits, if Hig loses Lua City, the Bols Horse Bandits will undoubtedly make a comeback with the support of Yus, and the elves who hate humans to the bone will definitely be happy to see it, and when the time comes, Lua City will definitely be given to the Bols Horse Bandits, and according to the information obtained by Marin City, it has been found that the elves have signs of contact with the Bols Horse Bandits. If that happens, the Sigg Civil War will break out again, and with the support of the Yus Empire and the Elven Kingdom, the Bols Horse Bandits will be even more difficult to deal with than the last time. The key point is that the Hig Empire, which has experienced the Bauhinia War and civil strife, has just recovered some vitality and can no longer withstand the attrition of a civil war.

After reading General Trorence's letter, the military bigwigs who suggested abandoning Lua City broke out in a cold sweat, they all ignored the seemingly weak Bols horse bandits, and after the reminder of Trorence's letter, they found out that the Bols horse bandits were the henchmen of the Higg Empire, if they really gave up Lua City, they could indeed let the Holy See bury the foundation in the eastern part of the empire in the past few years, but at the same time, it was very likely that even the Higg Empire would be buried together.

The Bols horse bandit is like a nail that pierces the belly of the Hig Empire, no matter who uses it, it can cause a sting to the Hig Empire, Yus is using it, the Holy See is also using it, and even now the elves have to use it, if the power used is great, and the position is just right, it is not impossible to take the life of the Hig Empire.

In any case, after solving the crisis of the invasion of the elven army, the nail of the Bolsma bandit must be pulled, and His Majesty Busman Roland sat on the throne and secretly made up his mind. It's just that this nail is not easy to pull, otherwise it wouldn't have been left to this day, and it's also a question of whether the Holy See agrees, and it seems that we have to find another way, even if we do it quietly without the Holy See. Thinking of the secret operation, Busman Rolland not only moved in his heart, he thought of a possible way to hide it from the eyes and ears of the Holy See, and immediately began to make arrangements quietly.

In addition to giving suggestions on the issue of whether to send troops, General Trorens also put forward his own ideas for specific troop tactics, he suggested that the Imperial soldiers should rush to Lua City in three ways, and the empire would draw 10,000 cavalry from the Guards Corps stationed in Triumph City, plus 10,000 garrisons in Marin City, combined with a total of 20,000 cavalry as the main force, he was willing to serve as the commander to command this army to go around the north side of Lua City, while reinforcing Lua City, cut off the communication channel between the elven army and the Bols horse bandits, and the second army set off from Baden City, 20,000 infantry, and the cavalry corps in the direction of Marin City combined with the elven army under Lua City。 At the same time, the Third Route Army, starting from Eevee City in the south and going around to the east of Lua City, did not have too many troops, only 5,000 men, and their role was to harass the logistics supply lines of the elven army.

This can be said to be a very well-thought-out and at the same time very stable tactic, even the specific march time, route and number of troops are clearly written, and those in the know know that this tactic was definitely not proposed by Old Trorence, but by his son Moses Trorense. Moses Trorens had expressed his opposition on behalf of his father when Higg sent troops to conquer the Elven Forest, and now it seems that if the military department had listened to him, it would not have lost troops outside the Elven Forest, let alone lead to a large-scale invasion of the Elven army.

So this time, neither Emperor Higg nor the military bosses dared to ignore Moses Trorence's suggestion, and when they were about to give an order after some discussion, Cardinal Raphael suddenly came to the palace to ask to see Higg XIII, and after meeting with Raphael, the frustrated Boothman Rolland announced that the marching order would be changed, and the march route would maintain the original plan, still three ways in parallel, but the main force was no longer in the direction of Marin City, but in the direction of Ebrahim, but there was no sufficient number of garrisons in Ibrahim, so the Holy See would transfer most of the Wings of War Light Cavalry Regiment under the Templar Order from the Congo Pass, with about 25,000 people as the main force, supplemented by a mixed army of 30,000 cavalry in the direction of Baden City, and 5,000 troops in the direction of Marin City, as a guerrilla force harassing the elven logistics supply line.
