Chapter 1574: Grace and Might
"I'm not a waste, I'm ...... I'm just not good at hill combat!"
At the military meeting, Nicole slapped the table and retorted loudly, although she pretended to have a serious expression, her blushing cheeks still revealed her emotions.
Nicole also felt ashamed, she wanted to prove her commanding talents, so she didn't follow Downton's tactics and ended up messing up.
"I understand. ”
Downton didn't complain about Nicole, each commander has a different personality, and it is a fool's dream to let a dragon to be gentle with those natives, but it is Hamlet's moral personality that allows him to easily win the favor of those natives, and he is the best choice for diplomats.
"You, well, I was wrong. ”
Downton's gentleness made Nicole speechless and bowed her head to admit her mistake.
"Have you completed my assignment?"
Downton looked at Suarez.
"It's all done!"
Su Ya gave a thumbs up.
"You're not going to blame me, are you?"
Seeing Su Ya's forced smile, Downton pursed the corners of his mouth, "I know, you have always wanted to restore the glory of the thousand-year-old empire. ”
If Downton's plan were carried out, the ruins of that empire would be reduced to nothing.
"How could it be. ”
Su Ya smiled, "It's just a little reluctant." ”
"Very well, then take advantage of the fact that the winter is not over yet, and the vegetation in the hilly area is not very luxuriant, launch an offensive. ”
Downton's will is the will of the country, and with his words, he drove the chariot of Frankfurt, and millions of soldiers died for him.
The evil elves used the secret magic of nature to make the vegetation grow rapidly, and the city was forged in the depths of the hills, and there were three of them, which were triangular in shape and horns with each other.
Eighty miles from the Elven City. There was a rudimentary forward base, and the native legions began to assemble here.
"As you can see, the hilly terrain is uneven, and there is vegetation and shrubs, and the army is not able to form a formation at all, and the advance is seriously hindered. ”
Nicole, who accompanied Downton on the inspection, complained loudly. Her death totems are all undead, and the requirements for the environment are not high, but those human soldiers are miserable, and the non-combat attrition caused by the lack of adaptation to the water and soil gives her a headache.
"Yes, if in the summer there is a harassment of mosquitoes, rats and ants, malaria will kill a lot of soldiers. ”
Su Ya Gang Cavity.
"That's why I'm asking you to woo those natives!"
Downton sighed that if he hadn't done a good job of Huairou for the aborigines in his early years, he could only sigh now.
"We can't get the battlefield advantage. The constant wars and deaths have also caused many natives to become war-weary. ”
Su Ya introduced the current situation, some tribes chose to migrate, away from the war, and some warlike tribes chose to take refuge in the evil elves, after all, in their opinion, relying on work to eat is far less easy than robbery.
"There are also many people who take the opportunity to ask for supplies. But with your big victory in the Eastern Theater, I'm sure those voices will be a lot quieter. ”
Nicole compliments. At the thought of Downton's brilliant record, her body couldn't help but heat up, and she wanted to roll the sheets with him.
If you can't be a famous general, then conquer a famous general in bed, which is also a good feeling.
"Can't we go any further? It's still a little too far to launch an offensive from here. ”
Downton recalls the map of the hills. frowned.
"The farther you go, the more you face the enemy in multipliers. ”
Nicole shook her head, according to the method of dealing with the evil god army on the front line of the legion, the indigenous legion built an advance base every thirty miles. With this steady and steady tactic, more than 600,000 soldiers were still lost.
"At least advance to within twenty miles, use the air force, and build roads!"
Downton ordered.
"Haha, I've wanted to blow up a way for a long time. ”
Nicole cheered excitedly, the Air Force was Downton's trump card, and no one could command him except him.
"What should I do?"
Advancing to the base, hundreds of indigenous tribal leaders with heads and faces were already waiting, watching the battleships fly densely from the sky like locusts, covering the sky and the sun, and they broke out in a cold sweat.
"Hey, what's so great about the battleship? It can't go down to the ground? The hills are so big, let's dig into the dense forest, and he can't find it. ”
"Yes, the hills are our main battlefield, and the recent war has also proved this, Downton has to rely on us, so everyone must not let go. ”
"That's right, we're not rebelling, we just need more supplies, after all, the dead people also need to be compensated. ”
Several leaders spoke, and in the past, at times like this, the followers followed, but today, most of them are silent.
"What's wrong with you, cowards!"
There was a curse from the chief.
"Downton isn't Nicole's kind of shit, I've heard that he just won a big battle on the Eastern Front, annihilating more than a million evil god troops. ”
"I heard that the opponent was the Shadow of the Holy Coffin, who almost destroyed Lombarty, but Downton turned the tide. ”
"Not surprisingly, after the end of the Holy War, Downton is the new master of this continent, and we offended him......"
The faces of the leaders are solemn, the names of the people, the shadows of the trees, Downton is now the undisputed first person in the mainland, and it is simply sad to be neighbors with this kind of person.
"Shhhh ”
There is a boss reminder.
As Downton stepped off the deck, Aboriginal folk music rang out, and the women danced hula.
"Great welcome. ”
Downton smiled.
"If you like it!"
The apprehensive leaders saw that Downton had a good attitude, and their tense heartstrings suddenly relaxed, and even the leaders who had a tough tone just now were unconsciously relieved.
"Big ...... Great Chief, we have prepared a reception banquet, please enjoy it!"
The leader of the fire blade leaned over, with a look of flattery.
The forward base was built by the Frankfurt Army, but in order to ease relations with the natives, Downton relinquished ownership and promised that he would not garrison troops in the hills after the war.
"Then I'm welcome, by the way, in order to thank you for your hard work on the front line, Sissi asked me to bring you some gifts. ”
After Downton finished speaking, his own adjutant held some well-dressed gift boxes and sent them away.
"It's ......"
Looking at the silk bow, the leaders did not dare to stretch out their hands.
"Huh. You're welcome, just some fine wine. ”
Downton said it lightly, but the adjutant was still very discerning.
"This is the secret brew of the Bavarian court, which has been cellared for 10,000 years and can only be drunk at the king's celebrations. ”
Boom!
Listen to the adjutant's introduction. The leaders couldn't help but swallow their saliva, their eyes were straight, for the natives, wine was their life.
"Take it, as long as you become my friend, you can drink it at any time. ”
Downton kept a gentle smile all the time.
"Then we're welcome. ”
The leaders grabbed the gift box almost as fast as they could, and if it weren't for Downton's presence, they would have even wanted to grab someone else's wine.
"Huh, what about yours?"
Some chiefs saw that the gift box was finished. There was no gray vine chieftain, and he was a little stunned.
"Maybe it's not ready, right?"
Gray Vine was embarrassed, but how dare he complain, he had to explain for Downton.
The leaders bowed their heads one by one and looked at their feet, they were not so stupid, a big empire would not have such a difference.
"Oh, Chief Greyvine. I don't think the Elven Queen's wine should be as good as mine. So I won't prepare it for you. ”
Downton took a few steps, then suddenly turned around and explained.
Poof!
The Greyvine Chief knelt down.
"I was wrong, I don't change the snake and mouse ends, but I haven't betrayed you!"
Grey vine begs for mercy.
"Yes, it's too late. ”
Downton shook his head, "When you're afraid of the Elven Queen, please." And don't forget that the great army of Frankfurt also has the strength to annihilate your entire horde. ”
"I ......"
Gray Vine still wants to beg for mercy, but there is no chance.
"Take it down!"
As soon as the adjutant gave the order, some Krupp guards rushed over, and the gray vine, who had lost his square inch, still wanted to resist. As a result, two legs were directly broken by the handcuffs.
Hiss!
Everyone understands the strength of the gray vine, but seeing him being overturned in one shot, the chiefs gasped in shock.
"New weapon, awesome, right?"
Downton teased.
"Haha!"
The chiefs laughed, but their hearts were bitter, and there was a strong neighbor, who was really a dog.
As long as Downton was not angry, the atmosphere of the banquet was still very good, and the chiefs kept looking at each other, trying to make those demands from each other, but near the end, none of them dared to speak first.
"The ......"
He took a heavy sip of the wine, and while it was strong, the Twilight Chief was about to speak.
"Huh, what?"
Downton put down his knife and fork.
"I didn't ...... It's nothing. ”
Just by glancing at Downton, looking at his starry eyes, twilight was like being doused with a bucket of cold ice water, and all guts were gone.
"Everyone!"
After another silent meal, Downton spoke.
The leaders immediately put down their utensils and looked at Downton respectfully.
"How effective is the free trade zone? You have made a lot of money, right?"
Downton chuckled, and did not signal the chiefs to continue eating, because this was the coercion of the superiors, and even if he was kind, these people did not dare to move.
"Thanks to you, our indigenous life is much better. ”
The chiefs all laughed, this is true, because of the existence of the free trade zone, they enjoy more material things and see more of the world.
Despite the border guards' efforts to crack down on smuggling, there were still some caravans that took risks, so some of the chiefs had also tasted women of other races, which was amazing.
"What did those evil elves bring?"
Downton asked rhetorically.
"Ugh!"
The natives were dumbfounded, indeed, except for war, looting, destruction, and death, the evil elves had done nothing good.
"To put it mildly, we are human beings, we are meant to live in cities, even if we fight the dragon hills, what's the use? Look at the evil elves, they will live in them for generations, and as they become stronger, you will eventually be enslaved. ”
Downton is a combination of rigidity and softness.
The chiefs were silent, and they all understood this.
"After a few years of cooperation, you have seen my character, and have you not fulfilled any of the promises given?"
Downton asked rhetorically.
The chiefs shook their heads, all looking ashamed.
Nicole pouted, she knew that Downton did not develop the hills himself, because the power was too weak, but it was not as great as he said, once he was full-fledged~, these natives would either surrender or perish. (To be continued.) )
