Chapter 376: Mountain Rain is Coming
"The royal family has recruited us north to drag down the demons in the northern part of the mountain range?"
Molly's message recounted Ares III's conscription order to all the lords of the kingdom, and the order to the viscount of Navabira was to ask Anna to send an army over the mountains to attack the demons in the northern part of the mountains, distract the demons, and reduce the number of demons sent to the royal capital.
"What about the return, even a king can't call nobles unconditionally like this?" said Adès, looking at the call on the parchment, with some dissatisfaction in his mouth.
"Land and titles, that's all the royal family can take out now. Winnie didn't look at the parchment, but she knew more about the current situation of the royal family, and knew that the royal family could not come up with additional rewards.
Adès looked down, and sure enough, the parchment had these terms written on it.
If the previous lord has sacrificed, then this land belongs to the lord who has been laid, and how much land can be laid, the royal family will reward what title, and the main thing is that the lord can recover all the occupied areas, so a hereditary duke title is appropriate.
After reading the information on the parchment, Ades shook his head and said: "It's useless for us to want land in the north, and now we haven't used up the land in Navabila County, and even if we take down the land in the north, there will be no one to manage it." ”
"I thought about it when I came, even if we really want to go to the north to conquer the demons, it will be very difficult to replenish supplies, and on the paths of the northern mountain ranges, if we want to transport supplies in large quantities, the loss will be very large. Mia whispered beside Ades, although she also wanted to destroy the demons, but when she thought about the logistics of the army. She's a little pessimistic.
Winnie stood up from the table and said to Adès and Mia, "Go." Go to the study and look at the map. ”
Ades quickly wiped the corners of his mouth. Got up and took the two followers to the study of the villa.
"The logistics should still be able to support it, I had some ideas when Mia said just now, you see, according to the route of this mountain trail, when you get here, there will be a mountain col, there is a water source, and it is relatively gentle, we can establish a support point in the middle of the mountain. Used to store supplies that should be delivered to the north. ”
Yunnie found the latest map in the study, since the last time she eliminated the Demon Hunter, the rangers and druids there began to scout the path, learned the situation of the entire path, and remade a map of the vicinity of the path.
Ades sat in his chair, his fingers tapping on the table, thinking about what to do with it.
If the contract between the nobility and the royal family is not observed, and the conscription order is not enforced, then the royal family can directly consider Nawabira County as a rebellion. If it's an ordinary nobleman or a nobleman from the evil camp, that's a normal thing.
But whether it is Molly or Adès, the gods they believe in are all in the good camp, and if their actions violate the rules of the camp. Then it will fall, then it will lose its divine grace, and Adès will be fine. If it were Molly and Anna, there was a good chance that they would lose their power completely.
So this call-up order must be executed. But how to avoid losing his own forces will test Ades' tactical and strategic vision.
"It looks like the road work from Port Ambo to the outpost is going to be delayed. Adès said hesitantly.
"If you really want to go north. Now the mountain path needs to be repaired, and I've heard Nat say that some parts of the road have been cut off by flash floods and mudslides. When Winnie heard Adès say this, she knew that he had decided to send an army to the north.
"Winnie, you say hello to Nancy, go to the academy and lend that thing out first. Adès said to Winny.
From Nancy, Adès learned that the Academy had magic items that could be used to build castles and roads, so he was going to lend it to the Academy at the beginning to build the road from the outpost to Ambo, but now it might have to be used to open up the path to the northern mountains.
"Okay. Yunni didn't immediately go out of the study, but took a note and wrote down Adès's order, and the army was mobilized, and there were many things to prepare.
"Also, send a message back to Molly and immediately send a fleet to the nearby port to buy food and other supplies, I don't think this war will end anytime soon. ”
"Yes!"
"Ade, we should send a few magicians from the real yàn room to form a team of mages who accompany the army, if it is purely an army composed of ordinary soldiers, if it encounters a demon above the middle rank, it will be a tragedy. Winnie reminded Adès not to ignore the demon commanders.
"Not only must you be transferred in the real room, but you must also go to various ports and mage academies to solicit them, and by the way, form a permanent territory mage team. Adès nodded, agreeing with Winny.
In fact, Navabira County should have prepared for the formation of a mage team early in the morning, but the high-level of the territory has always been at a relatively low professional level, and even if they go to recruit them, they can't recruit powerful mages, and even if they do, it's not easy to control them, so whether it's Molly or Adès's side, they are patient with this intention.
And now, with the official completion of the real yàn room, and Mia, the holy daughter of the unicorn goddess, in charge, the high-level mages may not be able to control it, but the middle-level mages, the territory has the strength to deter them.
"I've heard from the priests of the temple that there aren't quite a few wild mages in the nearby port, and if we can provide some resource support, we should be able to recruit a group of mages. Mia also agreed with this construction, and also told everyone what she had learned.
In fact, to the west of the giant sea, there is Harua, where the mages are excessive, so in the area around here, there are actually not a few mages.
"You two, as well as Ward, are to put down what you are doing and come with me to the Black Iron Harbor, we must all get together to discuss this matter and assign our respective tasks. Adès had other ideas in mind, but they had to be discussed with Anna and Molly before they could be implemented.
So he instructed Mia and Yunni to be mentally prepared that this military mission might require the mobilization of the entire Navabira County, each with their own mission.
"I think it's better not to go to Black Iron, it's better to let them come to the volcanic island, mainly to let everyone see the situation on the island, so that everyone can know that as long as the city tree is there, we are not afraid of any challenge. "Yunni thought about it for a while, and it would be better for Jianyì Ades to call everyone to the volcanic island.
"That's right, some of the middle managers in the county haven't seen the City Tree and don't understand the importance of Volcanic Island, so we can call them over to see it this time. Mia agrees with Yunni.
Adès nodded, they were right, they should have called everyone to the volcanic island to gather.
"Winnie, you send a message, in addition to Molly and Anna, Nat also needs to be notified, and it's best to call Nancy and Uncle Hunter as well. ”
Adès stood up and went to the window to think about it, talking to Yunny as he thought about what would happen next. (To be continued......)
