"What the Prime Minister said makes sense. www.biquge.info"I agree with the Prime Minister's opinion. When Bernard finished speaking, the royal ministers and generals present almost unanimously agreed.

Gerald, the commander of the French army, and his wife Sophia glanced at each other, "Lord Bernard, I have no objection to Gilgiard's strategy of sending troops, I wonder how much territory Lord Bernard thinks we should occupy the Kingdom of Gilgias?" Gerald asked.

"First of all, of course, to seize the gold mine on the west side of Huquan Mountain, and then...... We should pay attention to the changes in the situation of the war between the Kingdom of Gilgias and the Kingdom of Brettan, if the Kingdom of Bretan advances all the way, then General Gerald will lead your army to attack from the northeast of the Kingdom of Gilgias, and you will seize as much land as you can.

And if the Bretan Kingdom is unable to defeat the Gilgidian army on the battlefield in the south, General Gerald, you should not rush in, just occupy the gold mine in Huquan Mountain, and let the soldiers step up the gold mining, and if the Gilgidian Kingdom pursues it in the future, we will return the land on the west side of Huquan Mountain to them. Bernard said.

Prime Minister Bernard's idea was to decide how much land to occupy the Kingdom of Gilgias according to the war situation between the Kingdom of Gilgias and the Kingdom of Bretan, and if the Bretans defeated the army of the Kingdom of Gilgias in the south, then the Kingdom of France would take advantage of the fire and seize the territory of the Kingdom of Gilgias with the Kingdom of Bretan.

And if the Bretan Kingdom loses the war, then the Kingdom of France will not invade more land of the Gilgidian Kingdom, and only seize the huge gold mine on the west side of Huquan Mountain.

Gerald, the commander of the French army, felt that Prime Minister Bernard's strategic plan was very safe and appropriate, "Lord Bernard, then act according to this plan, I will first let General Guterni, who is stationed in the Red Maple Fortress, seize the gold mine on the west side of Huquan Mountain, and then I will lead the 50,000 troops of Bibo City to Huquan Mountain." Gerald nodded.

The Kingdom of France garrisoned 50,000 troops in the fortress of Red Maple, which was adjacent to the Kingdom of Gilgias to the west, and the commander of these 50,000 troops was the royal general, General Guterni.

When Guterni captured the gold mines on the west side of Huquan Mountain, Gerald would also lead the 50,000 French troops stationed in the royal capital Bibo City to Huquan Mountain.

"General Gerald, I must warn you of one thing. Prime Minister Bernard looked at the white-haired man sitting across the conference table and said with a serious expression, "The west side of Huquan Mountain belongs to the territory of Coldwater City of the Gilgian Kingdom, and the three northeastern cities of Gilgid, Coldwater City, Giant Wood City, and Blackstone City are all the territory of the same person......"

"Claude Cruwl," Gerald said, "That's right, Claude Cruwl, General Gerral, you must be careful with this man, Claude...... He is not a simple character. Bernard said with a solemn gaze.

There are many rumors about Claude Kuru, the lord of Blackstone City in the Kingdom of Gilgias, but the most famous is that Claude used a water attack strategy on the Red Flame Plain to wipe out 200,000 Bretan's army, and it was Claude's contribution to this strategy that allowed the Kingdom of Gilgias to defeat and defeat the Bretan army in the war five years ago.

Commander-in-Chief Bretain, known as the "Undefeated God of War", also lost his head on the battlefield for the first time, to a fledgling young soldier.

"Lord Bernard, don't worry, Claude will be able to stay in Blackstone honestly, and if he wants to come and cause trouble for our army, then I will make him a ghost under the Wind Lance. Gerald said confidently.

The weapon used by the commander of the French army, Geral, is a silver spear, nine feet long, its blade is three inches, extremely sharp, this silver spear is not cast by an ordinary blacksmith, the weapon of the commander of the French army Geral is one of the four two artifacts handed down from ancient times in the Qinglan Continent - the Lingfeng spear.

――――――――――――――

In March 7144 of the Bright Calendar, in the Lord's Mansion of Black Rock City, early in the morning, Tiberius hurried to the lord's room, "Lord Claude. Tiberius pushed the door open and entered the room.

"Tiberius, why is you in such a hurry? Standing in front of the mirror, Meng Fan, who was being served by the maids and changing clothes, turned his head to look at Tiberius who walked into the room.

"Lord Claude, the Kingdom of France sent 30,000 troops to occupy the gold mines on the west side of Huquan Mountain two days ago......" Tiberius informed Meng Fan, the lord of Blackstone City, of the information he had received.

After listening to Tiberius's words, Meng Fan turned his head to stare at himself in the mirror, reached out and touched his collar, "You guys go out." Meng Fan said to the two maids beside him who were serving him. "Yes, sir. The maids saluted and left.

"Are there any other moves after the French army occupies the gold mine?" Meng Fan walked to a chair and sat down and asked, "After the capture of the gold mine, these 30,000 French troops have no intention of continuing to advance to the west for the time being, but, Lord Claude, according to the news from the spies we sent to the Kingdom of France, the commander of the French army, Geral, has already led the 50,000 troops stationed in the royal capital Bibo City to rush over, and they will be able to reach Huquan Mountain in about seven days......," Tiberius replied.

"Hmm. Meng Fan nodded slightly. "The matter of the Fran Kingdom sending troops to occupy Huquan Mountain, Herman should also know about it, how does Herman view the invasion of the Fran Kingdom?" Meng Fan looked at the brown-haired man standing in front of him.

"General Herman has sent someone over to ask us in Blackstone City not to fight back against the army of the Kingdom of France for the time being. Tiberius said, "Anyway, as Master Claude expected, Herman didn't want to provoke the kingdom of Upper France." A black-robed man slowly walked out of the gloomy place in the corner of the room, and this dark mage was none other than Meng Fan's dark mage, Mar Saha.

Neither Meng Fan nor Tiberius noticed when Mar Saha had come to the room, "Lord Claude, the key now is to find out whether the Kingdom of Fran wants to invade the Kingdom of Gilgias in one go, or just to occupy the gold mines of Huquan Mountain. Tiberius said as he glanced at the dark mage Marzahar who had walked in front of him.

"The Kingdom of France must be hoping to obtain more things, otherwise the commander of the French army, Gerald, would not have personally rushed over with the 50,000 troops stationed in the royal capital Bibo City. The only three fingers left in Meng Fan's right hand tapped lightly on the armrest of the seat.

"But...... When Gerald arrives at Huquan Mountain, he may not immediately wave his army to the territory of the Gilgidian Kingdom, and Gerald may have to wait until our Gilgidian Kingdom and the Bretan Kingdom have a victory or defeat in the southern battlefield before making the next move.

This is the safest for the Kingdom of Fran, once the Kingdom of Brettan fails to win the Kingdom of Gilgias in the southern battlefield, then they still have room to leave, Gerald only needs to withdraw the army from Huquan Mountain, and the Kingdom of Gilgias will not delve into this military operation of the Kingdom of France. Meng Fan looked at Marsahar and Tiberius standing in front of him and said.

"Lord Claude, if the Fran army is just occupying the gold mines on the west side of Huquan Mountain and waiting for the situation to change in the southern battlefield of the Kingdom of Gilgias, then what are we going to do?" asked Marsaha.

"Of course I'm not going to let these Franks reap the benefits. Meng Fan snorted coldly, "Tiberius, you sent people to spread the news that the French army had invaded the territory of the Gilgidian Kingdom in Black Rock City, Cold Water City, and Jumu City, and Herman, the general of the royal army, had taken no resistance. Meng Fan commanded.

"Yes, Lord Claude. Tiberius saluted and departed. "Mar Saha, you go and call my eldest brother and Gruya, we must start the next move before the commander of the French army, Gerald, arrives at Huquan Mountain. Meng Fan said to the dark mage in front of him again.

"Chatter, Mistress Claude, we'll have to hurry, or ...... The Kingdom of Fran has dug up all the gold in the gold mines, and all the gold has been taken out of the Lord's Mansion of Blackstone City. Mar Saha's blood-red eyes stared at Meng Fan sitting on the chair and said with a smile.

The giant gold mine found on the west side of Huquan Mountain was actually a scam created by Meng Fan, Meng Fan took out 500,000 gold coins from the lord's mansion, Meng Fan melted all these gold coins into gold water mixed with mud and sand, and then sent people to bury the mixed golden sand into a valley on the west side of Huquan Mountain.

Then Meng Fan had people spread the news that a huge gold mine with rich reserves had been discovered on the west side of Huquan Mountain, and the reason why Meng Fan did this was to induce the Kingdom of Fran in the east to send troops to invade the gold mine on the west side of Huquan Mountain.
