Chapter 176: Node Plan
Kelsey was originally a native of the small mountain village of Elijah, although she was a girl, she was very strong since she was a child, and she was a girl who aspired to become a great knight, so for many years, she insisted on fighting with this goal, of course, until she broke through the bottleneck of a fifth-level warrior and became a sixth-level knight, most of the eyes around her were misunderstanding and discrimination.
So, after becoming a female knight, Kelsey left Elijah, hoping to achieve her wish in an adventurous career outside, becoming a great knight, she has joined the unruly motley adventure group, and also entered the mercenary group with a formal professional training mechanism.
After a few years passed, Kelsey also changed from an ignorant and innocent innocent girl to a mature and hot cunning young woman, however, after working hard for so long, she was still stuck in the bottleneck of the tenth-level knight, and never found the slightest way to make her promote to a big knight, and the tired bird always wanted to return to the nest, so she also gave birth to the idea of returning to her hometown at this time.
It's just that the huge fortress in front of her, surrounded by a ring of tall log walls, and even the valley next to the original mountain village, is it really the poor and backward but peaceful and quiet small mountain village in her dream?
Moreover, after so many years of traveling, Kelsey's vision has also broadened a lot more than before, and she noticed, "This is a paramilitary fortress, although there are many ordinary people living in it, but there are also more troops stationed in it, and these ordinary people are allowed to live in it because they serve it, right?"
When Lin Feng led the army to Elijah, after inspecting the half-built outpost, he suddenly had an idea, and because of this idea, he once again ordered the further expansion of Elijah outpost, in order to attract enough attention from his subordinates, he renamed this place "Elijah Fortress", and prepared to build it into a permanent defensive fortress, instead of abandoning it after recovering Mason County as previously planned.
"Look at the terrain here, if you also contain that small valley into the fortress, and then build a few small bastions on the cliff on the other side of the valley, this is a perfect defensive fortress!" Lin Feng said to Tylanya excitedly, "Think about it, if I build it, how desperate my enemies will have to be when facing it?"
"But, is it necessary?" Tyranya asked rhetorically, "With your current strength, I don't think Kevin Mason from Mason County would have the courage to attack here, even if he invited the Black Rock Orcs to send troops again, they wouldn't have that strength, right?"
Recently, Tyranya was a little dissatisfied with Lin Feng's performance, "I've been busy all day long, either busy meeting with these new knights under him, or going to the barracks to inspect the training of the recruits, and only thinking about making war plans and perfecting the way of fighting all day long, is Lin Feng's younger brother going to become a 'war maniac'? doesn't he know how many people are frightened by his state?"
Indeed, stimulated by the previous orc warlock summoning the Abyss Demon, Lin Feng changed his previous development strategy of steady progress and gradually increased his tilt towards the military field, not only did the private army in the territory expand tenfold at once, but the military industry in the Nanlin Island Workshop Area also tripled its production capacity, and even affected the normal business development in the territory.
It is also because of this that Count Harold and they are very honest in Golden Moon City, even if Lin Feng has already led an army of 30,000 to leave Silver Pine Castle, they don't have the slightest idea of making trouble for Lin Feng, "Don't you see that Viscount Golden Rose is going crazy like a crazy 'rioter'? Now go to him for trouble, well, maybe he is waiting for you to give this excuse, don't drag me if you want to die!"
Lin Feng's potential opponents were afraid, and his relatives and subordinates were naturally also worried, after all, those who had become "war madness" would not end well. However, even if Lin Feng occasionally returned to Nanlin Island, he came and went in a hurry, and his mother didn't have much chance to persuade him at all, so Tailanya, who realized it later, was beaten down by Lin Feng's mother and accepted the "persuasion" task she gave her.
Tyranya, who was already looking for an opportunity, saw him "intensify" like this: "Obviously you only need to build a transit post to store supplies, but if you come around, it will become a permanent large-scale defensive fortress? Why don't you go to the sky? Wouldn't it be better to just repair the floating ring of your legendary mage tower and drive it in the sky every day?"
"......", Lin Feng was speechless about Tailanya's sudden frenzy, but he also thought about it carefully, and found that he had been too impatient recently, and more importantly, he had not communicated well with these relatives and subordinates who trusted him the most, which caused them unnecessary misunderstandings.
"In order to deal with the future crisis, I have drawn up an "Outline of the Node Plan," at the regular meeting of the Viscount's Mansion that month, Lin Feng threw out a plan he had prepared, "Everyone take a look and know in their hearts, as for what the crisis is, don't ask, well, it is still a 'top secret' blocked by the top professionals." ”
In order to cover up the source of the information about the Demon War that might happen in the future, Lin Feng had to fabricate a "top secret information" that was controlled by a top-level professional, he couldn't tell this group of subordinates, this was what he had dreamed about, right?
Moreover, the reason he made up is also very in line with the understanding habits of the middle and low classes, well, "The big people always hold a lot of secrets but never let us know, and we don't need to know so much, anyway, there are tall people on top when the sky falls, don't you say?"
The "Outline of the Node Plan" is still only a rough draft plan, and its main content is only one: the Golden Rose Knights will make every effort to open up new colonies in various places, and where there are conditions to build large fortresses, such as places like Elijah, then there is no need to hesitate, even if they use force and power, they will also take root there, and establish a "base fortress" attached to the Golden Rose Viscount.
Where there is no condition to build a fortress, it is also necessary to establish a simple liaison outpost in a hidden place, in short, the army of the Golden Rose Knights must leave its unique "nodes" where they pass, Lin Feng's plan is to smoothly connect these "nodes" one day in the future, and weave a large net that belongs to the Golden Rose on the entire Strand Continent.
"It's very ambitious, isn't it?" Lin Feng looked at his subordinates who had been shocked to the point of stupidity and said: "Don't put on such a face, although looking at it now, there is a little bit of 'foolish dream' to complete this plan, but as long as we work hard from now on, it will one day be realized by us, we must have this confidence!"
