"Hahahaha, old friend Sebastian, long time no see, now you are the same as my lord! Congratulations!" Salian raised his glass to his good friend, Duke Chenggong, heartily happy.

"Thank you, my friend! There are still many places that need your help in the future! I have a very heavy task this time, and His Majesty the Emperor has put me under a lot of pressure. ”

"Naturally, there is no peaceful land in the empire from the south of the Limn River and the Viren River, and Higismund V sealed you in Fort Froburg in order to better pacify the war in the southwest. Our local aristocracy is indeed exhausted. ”

In the Stlingenburg of Hexingensarian, Sebastian came from afar to discuss the important matters of the military state with Salian. There are also their own cronies behind them, and Chieko from the Salian side has not yet returned because she has returned to the Far Eastern Islands to visit relatives, so she has not met Ranzakura, and the other girls have not crossed paths with each other, so we will not mention it for the time being.

Sébastian's 13,000-strong army had arrived in Schwartenen and was currently deployed in the Barenburg Valley, north of Konstanz, where it was received by Viscount Manstel von Barenberg, an ally of the Emperor and head of the Southwestern Commercial Alliance. As a mutual friend of Salian, the Viscount's stage is all of the highest standard. And he also wants to have a good relationship with the new celebrity around the emperor.

"First of all, let's think about how we can get rid of the stupid Ulrich as peacefully as possible. Sebastian drank a glass of Riesling, the famous wine of the Salian Territory, and continued.

"Hehe, I think peace is already a luxury, let's quickly solve him, otherwise it will not be beautiful to be taken by the Chinese and American troops. Salian had a different view, he continued.

"Oh, by the way, I also captured the leader of the Chinese American army last time, and he was imprisoned in the prison in Conzstanz, this person is really a man, and he has not revealed their ciphertext translation until now, I want to ask you for a favor first. ”

"Hehe, I see what you mean, then let's hurry over and find out the intentions of the peasant army!" Sebastian readily agreed to Salian.

"Yes, but don't kill him, this man may still be useful. ”

When Salian and Sebastian arrived at the dark prison in Constance, they found that the leader of the rebels, Brundlin, who had no good flesh in his body, was hanging from the cross, and the jailers around him continued to work on him with a soldering iron.

"Tell me how to decipher your ciphertext!"

Who would have thought that this person would not open his mouth after such torture, which is really respectful.

"Salian, I think you've already used the Secret of Control against him, right?"

"Yes, but I was afraid that I would turn him into an idiot by pushing too hard, so I gave it a brief try. ”

"Well, let's go out, I'll be here alone. Sebastian said slowly.

"Very well, then Mansel and I are waiting for good news in the City Lord's Mansion, and the singers!" Salian couldn't have been more relieved of his old friend's mastery of mind control.

Sure enough, two hours later, Sebastian left the felon cell with a cipher checklist, and he said to the guards.

"Take good care of the prisoner, he is very weak now, and he does not need to be punished anymore. Treat him with good wine and meat. ”

In the Lord's Palace, Manstel's lover and Schwartenen's most famous singer performed a song and dance performance for all the nobles of the southwest. The next day, Manstel's lieutenant handed over to several men the official documents of the rebels that had been deciphered from the previous battles.

"Haha, Your Excellency Sebastian, your skills are really strong, our Southwest Business Alliance was originally at a disadvantage in the war with the rebel army for a long time, but now with this cipher comparison table, it will definitely be able to turn things around. I don't know how to thank you. ”

"You're welcome, Manster, you're a good friend of Salian, and of course you're a friend of mine, and our interests are exactly the same, and to help you is to help myself. ”

After several days of intense checking and analysis, the strategic ideas of the Shoe Club, the poor Conrad, the Chinese and American forces, and the Guiyi faction had gradually emerged in front of Salian.

Finally, in the large conference room of the Lord's Palace, the four leading figures of Schwartenn, Sallian, Sebastian, Manstel and Echelling, sat together again.

"It is now clear that their primary goal is to capture the entire Duchy of Friroburg, and the rebels plan to use a crack army to attack the territory of Hexingen in Salian as a pinch, and then on the premise of all this, they will move north to join forces with the black army in the central forests of the empire, and the center will blossom and completely disrupt Emperor Higismund V's plan to encircle and suppress. Manstel began by informing everyone of the information he had gathered.

"Well, it's really a good calculation, there are indeed strategic masters in the opposing army, and it seems that their plan is going well. A third of the territory of Voroburg is already under the full control of the Chinese and American forces. ”

Sebastian couldn't help but admire these brave men a little. You must know that the other rebel army he secretly supports, the Free Knights Alliance, is only dealing with the Third Mobile Division of the Central Army under the command of Count Paletinai in the Linhe Rand area in the western part of the empire, which is far easier to deal with than the Southwest Commercial Alliance and the Second Mobile Division of the Central Army of Salian here, but it is still unsatisfactory. There is even a feeling of being suppressed. It seems that after the problem of Fort Froburg is resolved, he will return to Linhe Lante to preside over the overall situation, and it is too unwise for those down-and-out knights to fight on their own.

Salian read the report several times, and suddenly remembered.

"I see how this goes, we will do what we can to lure the Chinese and American troops into attacking our Schwartenenburg with the main force, and we will make a surprise attack behind them. Regard my Schwartenenburg as an 'anvil', and our army is a hammer, and the Chinese and American troops are the iron pieces that have been made, and we are happy to be square and round. ”

"Well, it's a good plan, but your castle is very risky, and if you are not careful, it will be ruined!"

"Hehe, for the peace of our Schwartenn region, what is an ancestral castle, His Majesty the Emperor has been so kind to my family for three generations, now is the time to serve the court. Salian's impassioned voice made everyone in the room boil.

"Well, now that you've made up your mind, I'm not going to stop you, but the plan is still to be as seamless as possible. Sebastian was in full admiration for the sacrifice Salian had made.

Echelin, who lacked resourcefulness, threw himself into the Salian Five-Body Body.

"Big brother, I will do what you say, even if you want me to go up the knife mountain and get off the oil pot, I won't frown!"

The calm Manstel added: "Whether it is spreading false news or arranging an ambush, it must be done by the most loyal people, and not a single piece of information must be leaked." ”
