Chapter 157: The Death of the Southern Shark (4)
"Winter is coming!"
Simpson Garcia muttered with a gloomy face.
The contemporary patriarch of the Garcia family did not have the ferocity and ferocity of a shark like their family banner, he was a handsome, aristocratic old nobleman like a gentleman.
Simpson received a traditional education from the Garcia family since he was a child, and although his blonde hair seemed to give him that decent temperament, his character was indeed aristocratic, arrogant, proud, and traditional......
Many people who are familiar with this old patriarch of Garcia know that he is a person who pays great attention to aristocratic traditions, and like those old stubborns, he is a very traditional person in his bones, abiding by tradition and putting family first, so many people also call him "proud Garcia" in private.
The Arnold family, Fort Hard.
At this time, Simpson, who had just defeated the Arnold family, was sitting by the fireplace of the largest castle in the land of Riverland.
With a gloomy face, he read the battle report about Dunerke brought by Macadam, and the traditional nobleman's heart was clouded at the moment, although he had defeated his old opponent, he could not feel a trace of happiness.
"The people of Heluo have nothing but fear and hatred for us! Although the Tough Fort has a more historical precipitation than Dunerke, it is undeniable that this ancient castle is full of the arrogance and blood of the mountain people, just like that ancient family!"
Simpson spoke very slowly to the group of subordinates below, I have to say that after fighting with the Arnold family for so many years, Simpson is very familiar with the unique blood of this old and old-fashioned family, although the Arnold family is the violet people who settled in the south from Magnolia following Archduke William, but they have gradually learned the arrogance and stubbornness unique to the mountain people in the long struggle.
To rule a land with fear and awe, in exchange for a sharp blade that only appears respectful but sticks out from behind.
Simpson knew this, and as a result, he didn't feel a sense of security as he sat in this old fort of hardship. Surrounded by strange people, in the depths of their gaze there was only hatred for the Garcias, a hatred that made him shudder when he lost Dunker.
He is like a king who has ascended to a different throne, but under the iron throne is not his people, and he is in danger of overturning at any moment.
"Go to McAdam, I will personally name him, and personally add his surname 'Garcia', at this time we have only one enemy, and that is the despicable thief who stole Dunker!"
After a long time, Simpson made his decision, his voice resolute, echoing through the halls of Fort Tough.
This stubborn old guy who sticks to tradition finally bows his head in the face of reality, which is also what makes him terrible, this is a man who can bend and stretch, and he is also a discerning strategist.
He had a unique vision of the "winter" that the Garcia family was about to face, losing its roots, even if he ruled the land, ten or twenty years...... When a generation grows old and the new generation takes up arms to avenge their parents, they will recall Garcia's hatred.
The most hateful thing is that a large part of Garcia's army is a native of Dunerke, and their families are all in Dunerke, these young men have no intention of fighting, and the army is home, which is why Simpson decided to unite with McAdam to fight back at Dunerke.
"My lord, why did we choose the defeated bastard of the Alliance?! We can unite the Valens, the Owens, and the Gars of the Flame Castle!"
An old man from Garcia stood up, like an angry shark, and retorted excitedly.
At this moment, the Garcia people have just defeated the Arnold family, and they are now extremely inflated, and they have a huge miscalculation of themselves and their enemies. The old man was a great general, but he was not a good strategist.
In the eyes of most Garcia families, they are already the uncrowned kings of the south at this time, and they can be repaired casually, and they can return to Dunerke in the spring of the next year.
And that damn bastard can't even keep Dunerke, and he doesn't deserve Garcia's surname at all.
"The Valen family, the family nicknamed the Mountain Fat Pigs, do they still have the strength to do so?" Simpson replied sharply, he looked at the veteran sarcastically, "The Owen family, oh, that's a brave family, but the name of the black-hearted Owen has made their reputation out of the aristocratic circle. ”
"The Garth family of the Flame Castle, you should know where Dun Erke is, and what about the Flame Castle?
Simpson also looked at these clansmen with some headaches, and he slowly lowered his tone, "Do you know the current state of our army?"
"The Silver Stag's Dornburg is lost...... Garcia's Dunerke was lost...... Our rear territory is almost gone! Heluo has just been laid, and although we have plundered a lot of supplies and wealth, winter is coming! The people of Heluo, who have lost their food for the winter, will not be so docile and wait for death, they are the lords of the Arnold family, and they are a group of mountain barbarian-like guys! When the first snow of winter arrives, a big war will surely break out in Heluo! And our enemies will be all the people of Heluo!"
Simpson's words made Garcia's face change dramatically throughout the hall.
And Simpson's bitter words still echo.
"We have distributed food and wealth to our vassals, like the silver stag lost to Dornburg, and we naturally want to compensate them. We can't recover the spoils that belong to them, otherwise our military spirit will collapse in an instant, and without Dunerke, we will not be able to appease the people of Heluo, and we will not survive the spring, we will fall into the war in Heluo!"
In the eyes of this wise strategist, he has clearly seen the end of Garcia the shark in the south.
If Wang Xiaotian heard these words here, he couldn't help but applaud, this Simpson saw the elements of "people", "subordinates" and "war" very thoroughly, and from a good war situation, he clearly saw the crisis hidden in the shadows.
The southern sharks have no way back.
There is only one way in front of them, to unite with McAdam, who occupies the supply point of the Arnold family, to replenish at least some supplies, and to fight back to Dunrk before winter comes.
Only the people familiar with Dunerke are the soil for Garcia's survival, and Garcia who has lost Dunerke, even if he has no enemies, will naturally wither like a flower that has lost its roots.
