Three hundred and two chapters are integrated into history
Fighting, for some, is a necessary means of survival, and for others, it has become survival itself.
They had no other goal in life than fighting.
For Sebastian's men, fighting the Noxians may be their only reason to survive.
Arthur looked at Sebastian and saw the despair hidden in his pale blue eyes, and understood their will.
"Good, so be it!"
He chose to accept them.
For Arthur, this didn't hurt him, and in addition to Sebastian's own background in the Duchy of Roses, he was a good general in his own right. Being able to fight in that situation and sustain such an army on his own is a testament to the young general's ability.
There is also a shortage of such a local general under his command.
It's a good option for both parties.
The Principality of Roses is no longer there, and even if the Noxians are defeated in the future, the land does not know what will happen, and this may be the best ending for them.
It's just that after accepting these people from Sebastian, the composition of his Red Star Warband is a little wrong, and it is more appropriate to say that it is more of a hodgepodge than a part of the Zuan Resistance.
Daji shook her waist and walked to him at this time,
"The hosts! Lord Victor, they were glad to get the news that we had contacted the dwarven tribe, and he told us that the first batch of reinforcements promised to us from the rear was on the road normally, and if nothing else, it would arrive in ten days, and Lord Victor encouraged us to make persistent efforts to quickly defeat the enemy Black Mountain garrison, open the passage to the north, and deter the Noxians in the north, so that they could see that the resistance could not only hold on, but even take the initiative. ”
"Good! You can say that again! ”
"It's about taking the initiative!"
The dwarven king Thorin saw that the general situation was decided, so he didn't dwell on Sebastian's small betrayal, it was more important to clear the nearest threat to their race as soon as possible.
"Master Arthur, when do you think we can attack the Black Mountain Fortress?"
Attacking the Black Mountain Fortress, Sebastian who had just announced a change of door and put it under Arthur's command was refreshed to hear it, the Black Mountain Fortress was the symbol of their Northern Legion. But then he quickly remembered that he was no longer a general of the Northern Legion, but someone else's subordinate, and that this kind of occasion might not be the occasion for him to talk too much, and his eyes dimmed.
Arthur didn't notice his new men, he heard the words of the dwarven king Thorin, and the corners of his mouth curled,
"Attack the Montenegrin fortress, at any time, this ...... It's up to you to move. ”
This trip to the north went well, and even he felt happy. Although Daji and the others have helped the dwarves defeat the imperial mages and open the passage, the main force of the Black Mountain dwarven tribe is still mostly underground, in the Gloomy Regions, and now only Thorin's escort is here.
If you want to attack the fortress of Montenegro, you can't rely on these people alone, you need more manpower. The dwarves need to pull their armies out of the gloomy realms.
When Thorin heard that Arthur had really agreed to attack the Black Mountain Fortress, he could hardly believe his ears, but then he thought about it, and it didn't seem impossible.
In a large-scale war, the role of the Imperial Mage Regiment in the Noxian Legion is almost irreplaceable, and it is their absolute core combat power, without the garrison of the Mage Regiment, now is the weakest time.
Why not?
The thought of attacking the Black Mountain Fortress made Thorrin's heart surge, and before agreeing to unite with Arthur, he really didn't expect it to go so far, it was like a dream.
And Sebastian, who had been listening silently on the side, heard this, hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't hold back, stepped forward and asked:
"My lord! Do I have a suggestion? ”
"Huh? Absolutely, no problem! Just say. ”
Arthur turned to look at him, he knew that his subordinate was probably the only real professional military management talent among all the people present, although the war on the Loran Continent had little to do with military command to a large extent, but if he could hear some more valuable advice, he was still willing to accept it.
Sebastian took a deep breath and said:
"If, my lord really wants to attack the Montenegrin fortress, then I suggest that we can contact more local military nobles, my previous colleagues, since the Northern Army was broken and the Marquis of Malfalia was killed in battle, many people surrendered, but there are many more people who did not give in, they chose to live in seclusion in the countryside, feeding their horses in their castles, wiping their armor and weapons, and waiting for an opportunity."
"The rule of the Noxians here is not as secure as they imagined."
"My lord, these people can be fought for, I can guarantee that as long as we are willing to attack the Black Mountain Fortress and even take it, so that more people can see the hope of victory, then more people will join us soon......"
Well?
Sebastian's suggestion made Arthur feel reliable when he heard it.
"Will there be so many rebels?"
"Yes. My lord! ”
"Please don't underestimate the courage of the northerners."
"We have lived here for generations, the mountains and forests here, the castles here are ours, and no one can take them away from us!"
Sebastian said it for granted.
But the corners of the dwarf king Thorin next to him twitched when he heard it. He didn't expect this to be the case. Army of the North? Will you opt in?
Arthur closed his eyes and pondered, weighing the pros and cons of this.
The military aristocracy of the north, which Sebastian was talking about, he could understand, according to the earth, these guys were the ones he had written about in the history textbooks of the earth classroom, those reactionary, rotten local feudal military aristocrats of medieval Europe.
The great villains of the people, they are the broadest basic ruling stratum of this era, and they maintain the basic ruling order of this era.
These people oppress the peasants of their fiefdoms in their fiefdoms, and do all kinds of evil. But they were the most resolute defenders of the traditional feudal ruling order.
But anyone who wants to rule this land can't do without them.
Obviously, the rule of the Noxians did not gain the support of these people.
So, the situation here is very delicate.
Will Sebastian be able to convince these people to join him?
What does this mean?
Is Arthur himself finally going to degenerate into the kind of man he says in the book, the kind of evil ruler and tyrant, who leads countless terrible and vicious traditional small and medium-sized nobles, frantically oppressing and exploiting the ordinary working people at the bottom of society?
So he's on this side?
It's kind of tragic.
For the first time, Arthur realized this, and he felt a sense of authenticity in history. This is the world of Loraine.
This is a bit contrary to the simplest revolutionary truths in Arthur's memory!
But—whatever," a sinister smile erupted from Arthur's lips, he had never been a savior, he had never thought of himself as having a great mission.
His purpose was simply to defeat the Noxians.
Just as the rebels can cooperate with the evil slave owners and the alchemy barons in Zaun, here he can also cooperate with these military nobles, nothing is wrong.
History has proved that revolution is an objective law that does not depend on the will of a few, and the final result of any revolution that transcends the times will only be more miserable.
The people of an era only need to complete the mission of an era, and as for the future, who knows?
