=====

Just as Wren has a headache now, so does Sarcomo.

There were a dozen or so people seated in the luxurious and elegant house, three of them dressed in aristocratic formal attire, surrounded by the chief of staff and the younger juniors of the family, and they thought the same as Wren. How to take Ortlenburg at an acceptable price, open the Weimar corridor, and introduce the Iron Cavalry of the Byronic Empire. What they hesitate is the question of preserving their strength, no one is a fool, who can become a nobleman, who can be recognized by the previous patriarch and designated as the next patriarch, are all excellent heirs of the family. It can be said that every nobleman is often selected by thousands of people, and mediocre people are not qualified to be heirs at all.

The conditions promised to them by the Byron Empire are very tempting, as long as the Byron Empire can enter the Orlando Empire, everyone will be canonized as the guardian knight of the Byron Empire and the Marquis of the Byron Empire, and the actual seal is 300 li, and the population is rewarded with 500,000. The content of the title canonization of the Byron Empire is different from that of the Orlando Empire, the canonization of nobles in the Orlando Empire is often canonized to a certain city, while the canonization of the Byron Empire is to take a place on the map and move a certain population to it.

The nobles needed to build their own cities, or they could just build villages, live in the imperial capital, and enjoy the benefits of their fiefdoms. It is difficult to say which method of canonization is more beneficial to the nobility, and the difference in systems cannot be compared horizontally and vertically. But it is undeniable that honorary titles such as Marquis, and Guardian Knight, are very tempting to these minor nobles in the province of Bell. The marquis is a marquis after all, and it is too tempting compared to these barons and viscounts.

The Byron Empire gave a lot, but there were also certain pitfalls. If these nobles can't preserve their strength, even if the Byronic Empire does invade Orlando and they really get everything promised, it won't be much more comfortable than they are now. What is the purpose of rebellion? It is nothing more than profit, and once one's own strength is insufficient, perhaps the fiefdom will be brought to a certain corner, or even worse than now.

The patriarch of the Dolby family, Sico, was a viscount, and the Dolby family had been in existence in the province of Bell for three hundred years, and for generations the sale of rare timber and fish had been the mainstay of their economy, and many people called the Dolby family with a deep contempt for the fisherman's family. They always laugh at the Dolby family for having a strong fishy smell on them, even though they don't have that smell on them.

"I think we can get some mercenaries to participate in the war, and do the regular attrition for us to a certain extent. Sico is a young man in his thirties, his skin is slightly dark, and his skin texture is not very good, after all, he lives near the sea, and the air and water vapor contain a lot of salt, which makes the skin of their family members very rough. He was emaciated, with his hair standing on end, shiny and shiny, and a light foundation on his face.

He leaned back on the sofa, crossed his legs, supported the armrest with one hand, and stretched out a finger lightly from the palm of his hand, "As long as we can consume half of the Black Armor Army, we will win, they can't withstand our second round of attack, and some mercenary organizations in the interior have also begun to be active in the vicinity recently, they are more professional than the guys here, and they are better at large-scale combat." ”

The mercenaries in the province of Bell can only be regarded as third-rate in the entire empire, and the rest of the empire colleagues talk about the mercenaries in the province of Bell with disdain. Compared to the mercenary groups that are active on the western border, who often go deep into the Full Moon territory to burn and loot, and are hired by the Empire to fight war with the Full Moon Cavalry, the mercenaries here are as harmless as kittens. Perhaps it was the recent turmoil in Bell Province that attracted the attention of these people, like the smell of blood from dozens of kilometers away smelled by sharks, these mercenary organizations crossed most of the empire into Bell Province and gradually became active.

Sarcomo nodded, "It's a good move, it's just a part of the money that we've lost, and it's not a loss to the real strength, so we can consider it." He thought for a moment and said, "But we also need to take into account the uncertainty of the mercenary organization. At the time of the Xiliu City massacre, the mercenaries hired by Bowen had no real will to fight, and if the war was lost, they might be the first to withdraw from the battlefield. ”

Sico's face was not very good-looking, and being refuted by a businessman made him feel that he had lost face, and if someone had dared to refute him like this before, even if the language used was quite tactful, he would have a seizure. But now the situation is indeed different, the war potential embodied by the Bell Chamber of Commerce has made all the nobles look sideways, and those merchants who once seemed weak and weak to them have gathered together, showing the power of fear.

A merchant has two or three hundred guards, ten merchants are two or three thousand, and a hundred merchants are twenty or thirty thousand. There are more than 500 registered merchants in the entire Bell Chamber of Commerce, and excluding some of these small merchants and merchants who have left the province of Bell, the entire Chamber of Commerce has nearly 50,000 guards who can be converted into infantry at any time, and 30,000 knights. The training intensity of the guards may not be as strong as that of real soldiers, but after training, even if the combat effectiveness is not as good as that of soldiers, it is not much worse.

No one dares to underestimate Sarcomo at this time, he is the most powerful party in this group, and everyone must respect his opinion.

Sarcomo could see that Sico was not worried, and he smiled indifferently, nobility is like this, even if the situation is weaker than people, it must reflect the demeanor and arrogance of the aristocracy.

"I probably know the situation in Ortlenburg better than you, after all, I have worked with Rennes for a while, and I have a better understanding of Ortlenburg's combat effectiveness. Sarcomo took a few steps with his glass in his hand, stood in the middle of the room, all eyes were on him, and he continued: "Ortlenburg is a very special city, the proportion of the elderly in this city is only about five percent of the city's population, and the proportion of young adults is more than sixty or seventy percent. These people are not like the farmers in your realm who only know how to farm and work!"

"Their character, quality, and combat effectiveness are even comparable to guards who have not undergone intensive training. Give them swords, and they will be bandits, give them horses, and they will be robbers, and if you keep them armed to the teeth, and let them be exposed to a period of training, they will become the people you see and fear—the Black Armor. ”

"When Mr. Terman attacked Ortlenburg, Wren did not have many trained soldiers at his disposal, only a group of thugs, but these were the people who blocked the shield guards that the Bol family relied on to become famous, and caused them heavy casualties. We can't underestimate this potential, if the war is fought to the end, if Wren is willing to gamble, then he will have more than 200,000 young soldiers!"

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became solemn, and everyone was frightened by Sarcomo's statement. 200,000 troops, just kidding, that's enough to make waves within the empire and shake the foundations of the Orlando family.

Another nobleman, Uvel Grant from the northeastern part of Bell, broke the dull atmosphere with a dry smile, "Are you kidding? 200,000 citizens who can be transformed into combat power at any time, if he really has such strength, why don't we surrender now, or leave here?"

It's not funny, they all know what is going on in Ortlenburg, it's a city full of crime, full of murderers, executioners, gang gangs. If these people really take up arms, it will definitely be a force to panic.

"Then what do you say?", feeling that he was being ignored, Uvel shouted, "This will not work, that will not work, then I may ask Mr. Party Leader, what do you really want?"

Sarcomo shrugged his shoulders, "I'm just going to make all the advantages and our weaknesses clear, and pay attention, gentlemen, this is not a game of war on the table, but a war that stakes our lives, our families' lives, and our glory. Win, we have everything, and if we lose, then we can only become food for wild dogs. ”

"Mercenaries are looking for, but we can't put our hopes in these warmongers who can do anything for gold, we can only rely on ourselves in the end. Sarcomo thought for a moment, "it would be better to hook Rennes out of Ortlenburg and deal with them in the wild." If the war situation changes from a field war to a siege war, it will be extremely unfavorable to us. The madmen adored Wren madly, and Wren let them die, and they would not hesitate. ”

If you fight a siege war in Ortrenburg, then you can completely give up, backed by a city of 300,000 people, with more than 200,000 madmen who can participate in the war at any time and are not afraid of death, how many people will it take to gnaw down? 500,000? Or a million? So you must drag Wren out and let him take a limited number of soldiers to fight a field battle in the field, as long as he can destroy the limited force, Wren will not be afraid, and Ortrenburg will not be afraid.

But here's the key, how to hook him out?

"Maybe we can try to attack Milin City, the Imperial Capital will definitely not let Milin City lose, Pars will definitely order Wren to rescue Milin City, what do you think of this idea?", one of the chief of staff asked with a smile.

A few people's eyes lit up, this idea is indeed very good, Milin City, as the capital of Bell, is a symbol of Orlando's orthodox rulers. As long as there is no problem with Millin City, it means that Bale's situation is not out of control, and once Millin City is in an emergency, Pars will definitely not be able to sit still, and will inevitably ask Rennes to rush to the aid of Millin .......
