The military meeting lasted a long time, and Gray had to lay out the entire coastal defense near the city of Seca, and it was not until three hours later that Gray called the meeting to end. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Gray was not very satisfied with the military meetings in the past few days, and he could see that many nobles didn't care at all about this blocking battle that affected the entire battle situation.

The nobles were able to come to Seca City and go to this conference room again and again to participate in the military meetings presided over by Gray, only because of Gray's current title of military coordinator.

Gray really couldn't deal with these clever nobles, after all, they didn't break any of the rules at all, so he had to repeatedly order Lois to keep a close watch on those nobles.

The next day, April 11, Gray received detailed information about the Hoko Islands coming by sea.

After reading this information, he had a strange smile on his face, and said to the Punk Knight and Robert Knight next to him, "Perhaps, you should let the people of the Secret Law Society take a look at this information." ”

Gray received information about how the elven magicians who appeared on the Hoko Islands used a strange stone to attack their troops, which Gray knew was what Jenina called the 'Demon Stone'.

Also on this morning, the citizens of Sekka City had just woken up from their sleep when the city lord's mansion suddenly issued a notice announcing that Sekka City was facing an attack by an orc expedition and that the citizens needed to evacuate the city immediately.

In order to convince the citizens of the truth of this matter, the lord of the city, Baron Arthur, personally went to the square of the civilian area to give a speech.

The baron's speech was very successful. Even Gray didn't expect that most of the citizens would be willing to choose to trust the city lord.

However, it is one thing to believe, and it is another thing to migrate.

After most of the citizens returned home, they were in a wait-and-see state, after all, it was not a matter of moving to an area where they had settled for more than a few generations, although the castle lord's residence promised that they would definitely return.

However, when the nobles of the aristocratic district and those who were wealthy began to transport goods and supplies outside the city in truckloads, the commoners also felt the seriousness of the incident, and they began to pack their few valuables.

A few hours earlier, before dawn, when the lord's mansion was struggling with how to persuade the citizens to evacuate Seka City, all the warships and sailors in the military harbor of Seca City had been boarded under the leadership of their commander, Colonel Demps.

The city's navy did not need their commanders to do much mobilization, and when Colonel Demps's orders were conveyed, their sailors were always able to complete it as quickly as possible.

The configuration of the navy is much more complex than that of the army, and the equipment of each ship is quite strict: one captain, one must be systematically learned, one first mate and one second officer, three heralds, one sailor captain, two deputy captains, two repair craftsmen, and 20 sailors.

And this is just the configuration of ordinary warships, and the configuration requirements for large sailing ships are more stringent, but there are no such warships in Seka City.

For every fifty ships, there was a commander, and Colonel Demps called them Lieutenant Colonels, as he used to call them in the mercenary regiment.

Two hundred warships, under the orders of Colonel Demps, sailed towards the endless sea level with the rising sun and the rolling waves.

Gray was on the shore far away from the military harbor, and he didn't bother Colonel Demps, who had been punished by the whole army, and he was flanked by his henchmen, and some of the nobles who had hurried after hearing the news.

When the fleet had sailed some part of the sea, Colonel Demps gave a few words to his assistant and went into his private cabin.

It was very dark in the ship's cabin, even during the day, where an oil lamp was nailed to a wooden pillar in the middle, illuminating the position of the desk in the cabin. The apparently old desk, which Colonel Demps had worked on for nearly a decade, was stamped with traces of the Colonel's work over the past ten years.

Temples had a habit of keeping a nautical diary, especially when he was just out on the sea.

If you want to write on a ship, you have to get used to the back and forth of the hull, which is difficult for Temple, knowing that old sailors can quickly write a neatly written letter home in such an environment.

The colonel flipped through the already obviously worn diary, removed the pen next to it, and lightly dipped it in a trace of ink,

On the morning of April 11, the weather was fine and it was a good day to go to sea, the colonel wrote so ...

Yesterday, at that tiresome military meeting, I, as Admiral of the Admiral of the City of Seca, received the first order from Viscount Cage, and this mission was set early in the morning.

I was not surprised, even a little happy, because I no longer had to go to that kind of pointless military meeting every day.

I don't hate meetings, I just hate to see the hypocritical expressions of those nobles, except, of course, Baron Arthur, who is a man of integrity, so upright that even I feel ashamed.

The young viscount ordered me to go to sea today, to deal a certain amount of heavy blows to the orc vanguard, and then lure the orc army to Seka City.

I knew the content of the mission some time ago, and I asked the sailors to practice hard every day for the encirclement and annihilation battle I envisioned.

Viscount Cage came to watch us train every day, and he told me more than once that my mission was important and that it mattered to the whole battle.

He was as verbose as an old man, and he would say to me at every opportunity: Colonel, your mission is not to encircle and annihilate the enemy's vanguard, but to lure the main orc force to Sekka City.

What I mean tomorrow is the young commander, who has prepared a rich gift for this expeditionary force of the orcs around the city of Seca.

For this plan, the citizens of Seca City had to temporarily leave their homeland and go to unknown lands, and my officers had known about this for a long time, and they had complained to me more than once.

And those ordinary sailors, I didn't dare to explain this to them, I was not afraid that they would mutiny, but I didn't know how to speak.

I know that this mission is not as simple as the previous extermination of pirates, and we may even encounter the mighty galleon of the goblins, which I have only seen a few times, and he is very large, and I heard from the goblins in Seca City, that if such a ship is converted into a warship, we don't even have to fear the most violent impact of our rushing ship.

Although I know that there must be self-boasting water in it, it also proves the strength of this warship, perhaps, the thousands of sailors I brought out, when I go back, only half of them, and even myself may return to the arms of Mary, the god of the sea.

However, I am not afraid, on the contrary, I am personally looking forward to this mission.

As an experienced veteran sailor, I knew very well that such a large sea force of orcs had to find a fixed supply point nearby to serve as a temporary port of call.

I'm as familiar with this area as the back garden of my own home, and all I need to do for now is to set up an encirclement in advance in the areas that could become temporary harbors for the orc expeditionary army.

In this way, I can even annihilate enemies several times my size...

Finally, I sincerely pray like Mary, the god of the sea, that this mission will go smoothly.

When Colonel Demps had finished writing his logbook, he pushed open the door to the cabin and stepped outside. At this time, the fleet had already been out of port for a long time.

Every time the colonel went to sea, he habitually walked to the bow of the ship, sat on the huge hammer at will, and reminisced about the past. The sailors knew the colonel's habits, and during this time there would not be a sailor to disturb their superior.
