"My lord, Alpine City is the fief of Count Filip, and it is also a vassal of the French Empire, if we attack rashly, it may cause a big earthquake!"

Hearing Allen's persuasion, Cassel also answered: "That's right, Lord Lord, and there are many people in Alpine City, even if the Imperial Legion does not participate in the battle, we are still at a numerical disadvantage. What's more, the logistical pressure in winter is very high, if they defend the city, it will be difficult for us to hold on, and the probability of winning by attacking is really not high. ”

The difficulty that Cassel told Allen, in fact, Duke also knew in his heart that as the side with the inferior number of troops, taking the initiative to attack the fortified city in winter was simply an act of seeking death, and this gap could not be made up by the advantage brought by the Storm Armor.

If he wants to attack Alpine City, the only reliable way Duke can think of at the moment is to let Gandalf release the legendary forbidden spell! It's just that once the magical energy of the forbidden spell is gathered, the magicians in Alpine City will definitely stop it, and it is a bit difficult for Gandalf to release a complete forbidden spell alone.

Not to mention that there is still the Holy See's Bright Army in Alpine City, and it is uncertain how many masters Duke has in it, if he uses the forbidden spell, he will definitely be an enemy of the entire Holy See and the French Empire, and Duke currently does not have any capital to fight against such a strong enemy.

"I know how difficult it is to attack Alpine City, but now Alpine City is simply too deceitful, and if the selling price of porcelain is not raised, Stormcastle's finances will soon collapse, and all production will come to a standstill. ”

Cassel didn't know much about porcelain sales, but they probably knew that Alpine City was crazy about selling down the price of Storm Castle's porcelain. It's just that the lord didn't say it before, but I didn't expect the matter to reach such a serious situation.

"If this is the case, the Storm Legion will resolutely defend the interests of Storm Castle, and we will not hesitate to fight to the death!"

Cassel's beard was a simple-minded problem, and he had just thought about it, but he couldn't come up with any solution. Since you can't think of it, let's go to war!

Duke was stunned when he heard Cassel shouting so resolutely to start a war, this bearded man knows how to shout and kill, and you can also give a way to defeat when you start a war!

When Alan heard Cassel's shout, he was naturally not to be outdone, otherwise he would have acted like a coward, so Alan also agreed: "Lord Lord, since you have decided, the Storm Legion will fight with all its strength to defend the interests of our Storm Castle!"

After saying that, the two of them set their eyes on Duke, expecting him to make a final decision.

"You're up to that?" Duke asked tentatively.

"That's right, Stormcastle doesn't compromise. ”

"Why don't we calm down and think about it? This battle seems to be a bit difficult to fight. ”

Duke replied with an embarrassed face, he was angry after hearing Abner's message before, thinking that he would do it!

"We Storm Knights have never been afraid of any formidable foe!"

Cassel didn't see Duke's embarrassment at all, but replied proudly.

Excited by Cassel, Alan also replied excitedly: "All the Storm Guards are ready, we only have to attack!"

"Okay, if you really want to fight, what are your plans?" Duke finally asked.

"Listen to your lord!" Cassel replied bluntly, not noticing that Duke had no plan at all.

Damn! Duke couldn't help but greet in his heart, I want to have a plan, what else do I need to call you to do? But the reckless performance of these two militants also made Duke make a decision in his heart, that is, when the Storm Legion expands in the future, there must be a staff headquarters of a professional army, otherwise it will be as brave and resourceful as it is now.

Duke can't step down now, because in this world, scheming talents like Zhuge Liang are not the most admired, they respect courage and glory more, even if the war is lost, as long as they show incomparable courage, they will still be praised by everyone.

So when it comes to this, Duke must not admit it, otherwise the heroic image he created before will be discounted a little. Of course, this little thing will definitely not affect Alan and Cassel much, the main thing is that Stormcastle can't afford it now, and it is impossible to accept such a low price of porcelain.

"I'll give you a day, except for the last five hundred recruits to expand, all the rest of the Storm Legion warriors are ready to go, this time I will definitely let Alpine City see the power of the Storm Legion!"

"Yes, Lord Lord!" Cassel and Eren retreated excitedly, looking forward to showing the strength of the Storm Legion in front of the other warriors of this world.

Seeing the two of them retreat, Duke immediately called Gandalf over and told him what he wanted to do with the Alpine team. Originally, Duke thought that Gandalf was a magician, and in ancient Chinese parlance, he was a little more inclined to literati, so he would analyze the situation rationally.

As a result, Duke never expected that as soon as he finished speaking, he saw a gloomy smile on Gandalf's face, and even his eyes lit up and said: "Little guy, you did a good job, I have long been dissatisfied with the sanctimonious guys of the Holy See, and when I was arrested, the archbishop of Alpine City also had a share, and it happened that the Holy See Bright Army was also there, so now we will settle the account together." ”

Seeing Gandalf's eyes glow, Duke knew that calling this guy was a waste of time, this heretic mage was as belligerent as the two reckless men before him!

"Gandalf, I see, it's good that the other side is all together, but now the question is, what if Stormcastle can't be defeated?"

After Gandalf heard this, he replied with a nonchalant face: "You are the lord of Storm Castle, this kind of problem should be solved by you, anyway, as long as it is necessary to attack Alpine City, I, as the chief magician of Storm Castle, can join the battle at any time." ”

Damn! Duke couldn't help but give Gandalf a middle finger, this group of goods really can't be counted on at a critical moment

Seeing Duke's middle finger movement, although Gandalf didn't understand what it meant, he also knew what it must mean. It's just that his face is full of indifference, and he doesn't care what Duke does.

Seeing Gandalf's expression, Duke felt even more angry, in that case, let's fight, no matter what, we have to put a little pressure on Alpine City, otherwise it will really be a mermaid.

"Gandalf, prepare, I've decided to head towards Alpine City tomorrow, it's time for them to understand that Stormcastle isn't easy to mess with!"
