The nobles who were able to enter the castle hall were basically supporters of the three major families of Glowlight City, and many of them also participated in the construction of the north-south artery, relying on the introduction of steam engines and the production of calcined cement. Hearing that the King of the Grey Keep was so confident, the anxiety on everyone's faces finally disappeared a little.

In any case, this kind of open-minded meeting with only data and details is definitely a rare experience for the nobles of Dawn, and the argument is inherently more convincing than drawing a pie or talking about comfort.

"That'...... What do we need to do?" someone asked.

"Just maintain the status quo," Roland said bluntly, "and a steady morning is the greatest help to the war." ”

"But now that the panic has begun to spread, if coercive measures are taken, it will probably only have the opposite effect on the group of refugees......

"That's because the devil has used the red mist to invade the frontier territory, and this situation is not going to get worse forever. Roland was relieved, "The Grey Keep will also do its best to assist you in stabilizing the situation. ”

"For territories threatened by the devil, the royal capital will also be exempted from tribute and will be given subsidies as appropriate. Hoford added in time, "Guys, this is a war for everyone, and no one is out of it. I, Hoford Quinn, swear in the name of our ancestors that no matter what the outcome, I will never leave Radiant City! If Dawn is destroyed by the devil, then this castle will be my grave!"

......

After the nobles, who had been assured and somewhat reassured, left the hall, the meeting quickly moved on to the second part.

The rest of the people who remained in the room, except for the Lord of Dawn, were all the upper echelons of the Grey Castle.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to take full responsibility for the previous battle" Iron Axe and Edith stood up at the same time, and looked at each other in surprise.

"No one can predict what kind of offensive means the gods of creation have," Roland shook his head, "don't tell me that when you first formulated your plan, you never considered the attack or even the destruction of the reserve team. ”

"......" and the two can only choose to remain silent.

One squad to probe and multiple teams to act depending on the situation is a regular tactic when developing tactics, but it would be foolish to think that losses will only happen to the probe squad. He was confident that the General Staff would not have made such a lowly mistake.

"In other words, the moment you decide to put the plan into action, you acquiesce that the plan is more important than the risks that these two forces need to take. Otherwise, this program should not have been adopted from the beginning. Rest assured, I will not measure your merits by the number of casualties, even if it is indeed the most costly battle of the First Army. ”

"Your Majesty......"

"But don't forget," Roland retracted his relaxed expression and his tone became solemn, "These soldiers also have their own families, don't treat their sacrifices as numbers on paper. I hope that you will keep this in mind every time you make an action. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. Iron Axe and Edith said in unison.

"Now, let's talk about your thoughts on the rest of the war. ”

"Yes. "The Pearl of the Northland has been replaced with a new map," the staff believes after analysis that there are two places that are most likely to go after the Floating Fortress turns around, one is the Cage Mountain Border, and the other is the Hermes Plateau. The former will ensure that the wolf's heart will be taken down and threaten the Dawn Kingdom, while the latter will allow the red mist to invade Shikoku at the same time, turning the Desperate Mountains into a passage to the spine of the continent. But now that it had crossed the border of Dawn, judging by the trajectory, it was headed for Hermes. ”

Roland nodded, "How's the evacuation going over there?"

"Very well," replied Agatha, "Isabella is now the veritable ruler of the Church, and they are far more efficient than the common people, and it is expected that the evacuation of the old and new cities will be completed in two to three days. ”

"That's fine. ”

"We are powerless to stop the Floating Fortress until your Sunburst is complete," Edith continued, "Once it occupies the Hermes Plateau, the Red Mist will most likely overflow the Silverlight City and the Dawn will be swallowed up. Without the support of witches, we will be in a very passive situation. ”

It's still this far.

Roland sighed secretly, after all, erecting an obelisk in the Holy City of Tachira would pose a great threat to the human kingdom, let alone inserting it directly in his face now.

Of course, the obelisk of Taqira can directly invade Neverwinter, while the obelisk on the Hermes plateau can only cover Silverlight City, which is the biggest difference. Once the only industrial area is invaded by red fog, the consequences will be unimaginable. Now that the Grey Keep's strength is growing rapidly, it is inseparable from the witchesIn Neverwinter, the Sleeping Charm has been involved in all aspects of the city's development, such as removing parasites from the hull, relieving worker fatigue, assisting in jīng processing, planting coral reefs to expand the shallow area, and so on...... Although core industries such as steelmaking do not need witches to sustain themselves, it is inevitable that the overall efficiency will be greatly reduced.

Fortunately, whether it is a steam engine, an internal combustion engine or a Rubik's Cube power source, it can operate normally in the red mist, which also gives humans the biggest hole cards for confrontation.

"It seems that before the God of Creation is destroyed, we will be engaged in the Red Mist for a while. His gaze swept over everyone in turn, "In addition, I came this time with good news, the 'Solar Radiance' has completed the finalized design, and a new round of principle tests will start soon." If it succeeds, this air fortress will not last until the day when the red mist engulfs the morning light!"

Everyone suddenly showed joy.

"Really?"

"That's great!"

Roland also showed a hint of a smile, "So, how exactly to accomplish this decision, can now be put on the agenda." ”

......

After an afternoon of discussions, the general plan was basically decided.

Due to the special xìng of the god-made gods, the First Army didn't really have much choice, either to plant a detonating device in advance and destroy the core from the red mist outlet below the continent, or to drop it from a high altitude and make it destroy the obelisk in one go. Other than that, there is very little damage that other methods can do to God-made gods.

【Reading at zero o'clock】

The advantage of the former is that it is easy to implement, and there is no need for bombers as a precondition, but the effect is also difficult to guarantee that the Hermes plateau is quite wide, and no one knows where the god-made god will eventually stop, and once it deviates from the red mist outlet, the explosion effect will be greatly reduced.

What's more, it is doubtful that the sun's glow can turn the Red Mist Waterfall into a high-temperature spewing pillar of fire, and the farther the floating land is from the surface, the higher the uncertainty becomes. Coupled with the fact that Lucia had refined so much pure uranium, the plan was ultimately rejected.

There are still technical and implementation difficulties in the airdrop, but once successful, the bomb will be detonated in close proximity to the Red Mist Lake, which can maximize its power.

In that case, let's make a plan based on this conclusion. Roland slapped his hand on the table, "In addition, the air raid rehearsal and the principle bomb test were carried out at the same time, and the account that was lost from the devil should be recovered from the devil!"

"As you wish, Your Majesty!" saluted everyone.
