Section 8
Early in the morning of the 29th, Sir Korwin was waiting for Gray at the gates of Birn City, and this knight still valued the arrival of the newly appointed military coordinator. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
After all, at such a critical juncture, this lord came to the Bien Territory, which can only mean one thing, in the later war, the Bien Leader will definitely take on more important tasks, or make greater sacrifices than other territories.
Whatever the possibility, Sir Korwin could not refuse, and he would not refuse.
Because, anyone who knows history knows what it will mean to the human world if the orcs really come in.
While Sir Corven and the Earl's family will not shirk their responsibilities, they will not make sacrifices in vain.
Gray had guessed some of the Borg's thoughts, which was why he had come to Bianling himself, and in order to save time, he even had to travel at night.
When the fog of the early spring morning cleared, the morning glow on the horizon illuminated the whole land, and the noble banner with the coat of arms of the Gray family was the first to meet Sir Cowen's eyes.
After a few breaths, the young, familiar face reappeared before Sir Korwin, and the old man was immediately stunned and recovered from his thoughts.
As the procession drew closer, Sir Korwin looked at the dusty procession, everyone in this group looked a little tired, and there was even a very noticeable layer of dust on their uniforms.
When the knight saw this, a hint of emotion flashed in his eyes.
"Viscount Cage!" said Sir Korwin, who made a standard of old aristocratic etiquette, and he saluted slowly, with every step done in a disciplined manner, to show his respect.
Gray was visibly stunned by Sir Korwin's solemnity, and he stared at the team that greeted him, "Sir, we don't have time to waste, let's go directly to the castle and talk about things!"
Sir Korwin was visibly stunned when he heard Gray start talking, and the other party didn't even return the salute.
But Sir Korwen was just stunned, and then reacted that the other party could do this, just like Sir Korwen's taste, he didn't care about the other party's faux pas.
...
In the soundproof chamber of Fort Byan, Gray told Sir Korwin and Pedi on the side of him about his battle plan this time.
"So, what you have to do is to make sure that you don't lose too much land in the early stage of the war, and of course, if our plan goes well, maybe the orc expeditionary force will not attack you at all in the early stage!" Gray said at the end.
After Gray finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Pedi, the viscount who was now the temporary master of the Byan Domain, who was staring at the battle map at this time, and had no intention of speaking.
"But.." Sir Korwen spoke, "It is also possible that the orcs will focus on Balan City, if so, we may bring the entire southern border into danger, you must know that the other party has 50,000 orcs, although I don't know how effective it is, but I don't think it will be worse there!"
"But we don't have a choice, sir..."
Gray rubbed his temples with his thumb, "You're right, the other side has 50,000 soldiers, and our strength is limited, so we can only defend a little, to be honest, the early resistance war, fighting in Balan City, is not realistic at all, I heard Sir Wright say that its coastal defense power can be said to be none!"
There was no one else here, and the two of them were not angry at Gray's words, they were both looking down and thinking about Gray's battle plan, they had to think about it clearly, after all, in the later stage of Gray's battle plan, Grace Leader had completely given up.
"What about our people, with the hatred of the orcs for us, they don't just loot and do it, they may slaughter ordinary civilians, because that's what humans used to do!"
"You can evacuate them first!" Gray said softly with a slight twinkle in his eyes.
"Evacuate?" Sir Korwin said in a loud voice, "Hundreds of thousands of people, where to evacuate? If only people are evacuated, how will these hundreds of thousands of people be fed? If it is pulled together with supplies, it will take at least two months!"
Although Sir Korwin had long known where these civilians would ultimately belong, he still couldn't help but be excited, it was uncontrollable, and he was already trying to suppress it.
"Sir!" Pedi scolded, then stared at Gray and said, "We need time to think about it." ”
Gray nodded and said, "Yes! But today I have to get an answer, and I'll leave in the evening!"
"So fast?" said Sir Korwin and Pedi.
Gray's tired eyelids lifted slightly, and he glanced at the two of them, "We don't have time to waste, two, if you can discuss the result a minute earlier, maybe a few thousand more people will be evacuated safely!"
With that, Gray ignored the two of them and walked towards the door of the secret room.
"Click!"
When the door was reopened, Sir Korwin and Pedi looked at each other, and both saw the solemnity in each other's eyes.
"There's nothing negotiable, Sir, and we'll do it! I don't think he can think of anything good to do even if my father is here!" said Peddy bitterly, as if he were talking to himself.
"I didn't say no to Viscount Cage, but we had to get his promise, and the Archduke de Rooney he now represents, and his present promise is very weighty!" said Sir Clewin.
Pei Di was puzzled, "What more promises do you need, it's nothing more than to let them return the people of the Ben Territory after the war!"
"My lord, those lords, even if we don't want Viscount Cage to promise, after we defeat the orcs, we only need to give the corresponding benefits, and we will return to the territory by ourselves, what we need is funds, the economy of the territory has just improved in the past two years, but after this war, we will not be able to take it from Jianbien!" Sir Göwen's expression was a little exaggerated.
"So serious?" Pedi had no idea about the commercial economics of the realm.
"Yes, we can't even fill our own stomachs!" Sir Göwen's voice suddenly became smaller, "When the time comes, we will have to beg others to sign a series of treaties that are not good for our territory!"
The sir was right, and when the time came, the nobles would soon forget their contribution to the war and take on a different face.
"Rather than be humiliated then, we should get Viscount Cage now!" said Sir Korwin.
As an important territory for grain production, Byan Territory should not be short of money, but due to a wrong investment made by Count Borg when he was young, and the wrong management of Balan City later, their finances immediately fell into crisis.
The two men were also full of confidence in this war, as if they did not expect to lose it.
On the other side, Gray was about to take a break when the old butler of Byanburgh suddenly appeared, and the old butler, who was good at observing words, obviously saw Gray's dissatisfaction, so he hurriedly said: "Baroness Laglet of Arenburg wants to see you, do you want to see you?"
Gray froze, but didn't realize who the baroness was, his mind was now full of battle plans for the orcs, but in an instant he remembered again, this was his titular adoptive mother, the culprit who had driven him out of Aarenburg five years ago.
