Highly recommended:

While Tanan was furious under the city of Flashsand, Lear had already stationed his army with Spartacus in Kragg, a town three hundred miles away from Boca. com

I have to say that there is still a considerable advantage to bringing Senbu with him, that is, it saves a lot of time, because his knowledge of this land Lear's army has avoided many unnecessary detours.

It was supposed to be a six-day journey from Cleggmore to Boca City, but it took only four days to arrive under the leadership of Senbu, and there was no large-scale killing in Boca City Lear as Senbu desired, although there was no clear agreement, but this kind of thing was tacitly agreed by both of them.

As in Shining Sand and Cleggmore, the first thing Lear did after entering the city was to open the granaries and distribute food, followed by the priests preaching, and after a three-day stay they left Boca City.

"Tanan's army should have arrived in Shining Sand City by now. ”

By the white smoke of the campfire, Lear gently flicked the firewood in front of him, and beside him was the captain who was sitting in a circle, and at this time Senbu consciously walked to the edge of the woods, and he was not qualified to participate in such a meeting.

"If he did choose to return to the reinforcements instead of advancing into the hinterland of Erathia, he should have arrived at Shining Sand City yesterday evening. ”

Mlak glanced at the map in front of him, and then affirmed.

"What do you guess he'll do?"

After glancing around at the crowd, Lear smiled mysteriously but slightly viciously.

With his understanding of Tanan, it is not difficult to imagine what the other party did, but at this moment, he intends to test these captains under his command.

"If it were me, I would have been furious, and I would have commanded my army to speed up and catch up as fast as we could, in order to annihilate it before we could cause more damage. ”

The first to answer was Ilore, who had been with Lear for a long time since he was the arrogant and arrogant pirate, and the many battles on the battlefield had also made his face a little more iron-blooded.

Lear smiled and nodded, but was noncommittal, continuing to look at the next person.

Tariq spread his hands and rolled his eyes, this kind of thing about using his brain is really not his forte, anyway, his life is Lear's, just point to where to fight, even Lear has no way.

"He should repair the walls and leave men along the way in case we suddenly kill them, but with so many towns along the way, he may not have enough troops in the event of an encounter. ”

Encouraged by Lear's eyes, Guina also spoke her own opinions, and the idea of returning the horse pistol made his eyes light up, which he hadn't even considered himself before.

"The most effective way. Ivo took the map from Mlak's hand.

"Divide our forces in Boca City, march along the Krag Mountains through Dragonding City on the upper road, hold the valley of the Thoros Desert in Dori City on the lower road, and go straight out of Boca City in the middle, so that wherever we turn, we will inevitably encounter one of them, as long as they can delay for some time, the other two armies can quickly come and form a flanking attack on us, forcing us to start a decisive battle with them in the desert in advance. ”

However, before Lear could speak, Ivo himself shook his head and denied his own idea, for the simple reason that he did.

"They can't hold it. ”

Spartacus is now well-armed and in the state of a group of twenty crystal dragons, unless the main army of Tanan personally finds them for a decisive battle, any act of dividing the army is a self-digging practice.

Prior to this, they had fully analyzed the possible remaining forces of Tanan after the decisive battle with the Erathians, and they still tried to estimate as much as possible, even if it was so, let alone a third, even a half, it was impossible to hold out until other reinforcements arrived.

For each of the three routes Ivo had planned had been separated by at least three days, and with his knowledge of his own army, it would never take him three days to defeat any of his subordinate armies.

When the time comes, Tanan will lose his wife and not say anything, and he will continue to eat sand behind their butts.

Although Ivo himself denied his idea, Lear still gave him an affirmative smile, and what he needed was this habit of using his brain, like Tariq and Haag, and he fought this battle all by himself.

After seeing Jeremy's stumbling appearance, Lear shook his head helplessly, this guy is now completely immersed in the aura of scientific researchers, and it is unlikely that he will lead the troops to fight in the future, and it seems that the candidate for the artillery general will have to find another man.

His gaze fell on the last and most anticipated man, Mrak, who was still frowning and thoughtful, sometimes a little light passing through his eyes, but sometimes calm.

"If you think of something, you can say it boldly, and if you say it wrong, it's nothing, it's all your own people here. ”

Seeing Mrak's hesitant appearance, Lear was a little displeased, and among all the generals, his hopes for Mlak could be said to be the greatest.

"It's not what I'm thinking about what Tanan will do, it's what you want him to do, and whether he'll do that. ”

Finally, Mlak looked up.

"Oh?"

Lear raised an eyebrow, and with that sentence alone he could be sure that he wasn't looking at the wrong person.

"We've broken down four cities along the way, and you've shown extra kindness to all the civilian-inhabited towns except for the Beit League's defenders, which seem like your promise to Senbu, but I've always felt that there's something deeper in it. ”

"Go on. ”

Lear's eyes lit up.

"There is no loss to us in opening barns and spreading the faith, and not committing any of these acts, but it has planted a seed of goodness in the hearts of the barbarian people of the land, and it is much easier for us to continue to attack the city or kill the horses and guns if our reputation spreads in the land. ”

Mlak paused, trying to choke out the flow of his words and express his thoughts more clearly.

"The essence of war is violent killing, which is also the most fundamental reason why the people are afraid of war and resist war, but this is not the case with the war we are waging in Krurod, exclusion may be inevitable, but the resistance we will encounter will be greatly reduced, it seems that we have gained nothing in this war, in fact, in the process we have gained the hearts of the people little by little. ”

"Of course, this kind of popular will is not enough for us to occupy Krurod, because the barbarians still have an inseparable sense of belonging to their leaders and ancestors and this land, and we are at most treated as a group of innocent guests, and we will still be sent out of the country after a long journey, but if Tananken does us a favor, we may change from guests to masters. ”

Lear's encouraging look gave Mlak great confidence, and when he said this in an extremely fluid tone, even Tariq's eyes lit up with a strong light.

"Do you think Tanan will do us a favor?"

Lear stood up, staring into Mrak's eyes with burning eyes.

"This ...... I'm not sure. ”

Although he had already thought about what Lear wanted Tanan to do, it was too unbelievable, and even if it weren't for Lear's constant encouragement to keep saying that Mlak wondered if he was crazy to think of this, if he could really do something like that, would Tanan still be a person?

"He will. ”

Lear looked up into the distance and said in a deep voice.

It was as if an unimaginable catastrophe was taking place under the sky beyond his reach, and he was crossing the barrier of time and space to be at the center of that catastrophe.
