Chapter 53: Listening
Baron Toposso's plan seems to be very well-developed, at least so far, they have not found any shortcomings. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Just now, when Lynch asked whether he would be attacked by other nobles, everyone shook their heads.
The other nobles really don't want to see Baron Toposso swallow so much land alone, but Baron Toposso is pioneering, if he takes the opportunity to sneak attack, he will be condemned by His Majesty the Emperor and the church, and the expansion of the territory is welcomed by the high-level of the Wyvern Empire, and the expansion of the territory is not simply a horse race, a piece of land has to go from a wild land infested by monsters to a valuable territory, and it will take at least ten years to manage it painstakingly.
You run it, and after a hundred years, the empire will have a way to take it back, and if no one runs it, where can you take the land?
Give the cows more grass to collect an extra bucket of milk, such a simple truth, the top of the empire will not be too stupid to understand.
Of course, the lower limit of the aristocracy is the same as the discipline of Kaos, which is often unfathomable, and it is more reliable to count on the majesty of the empire and the rules of the church to restrain the lawless nobles, it is more reliable to imagine the collective suicide of Warcraft.
So Baron Toposso made a deal with Viscount Lanto.
It was also by chance that Viscount Ranto owed Baron Toposso a favor in the process of capturing the bard.
The favor of the aristocracy, the shelf life is very short, but the effect is very good.
The shelf life is short because the aristocracy is forgetful and never uses human affection as the cornerstone of events.
It works well because the nobles value their face, and since Viscount Ranto said that he owes Baron Toposso a favor, in the last year, if Baron Topso makes a request that does not make Viscount Ranto hesitate, Viscount Lanto will agree.
It is the matter of Lynch and others that became the last straw for Baron Toposso to make up his mind, thinking that no matter how difficult it was, he would swallow this piece.
"Use diplomacy to reach friendly relations with the most powerful nobles in the vicinity, and prevent other nobles from taking advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble. ”
"Use mercenaries to solve the dilemma of insufficient human resources. ”
"Use the land pledge to collect the funds needed for the war, so that the whole territory of Toposo can unite and pull the chariot of the march. ”
"No matter how you look at it, as long as the enemy is not too strong, it is unlikely that the Toposo Territory will fail this time. ”
The crowd nodded.
They also wondered, on what basis did Lynch speculate that the Toposso Territory might fail?
If the probability of defeat is high, Baron Toposso is not a fool, he has been attacked, and the whole state of weakness is to start a foreign war.
Yes, overall weakness.
Lynch felt like he had thought of something.
"Well, we really can't find a reason to fail. ”
"Then we make a counterfactual reasoning about where it is most likely to happen if we fail. ”
"Where might we be the weakest link?"
Just now, Lynch found himself too entangled, he didn't want to find out who the enemy was, who appeared to cause the failure of Toposso's plan to lead the expedition.
It's about where Toposso is most likely to go wrong.
According to the barrel theory, how much water a bucket can hold depends on the board with its shortest.
In the same way, if there is any empire destroyed, the collapse of the edifice is not determined by its strengths, but by its weaknesses.
Following this method, all Lynch has to do is strengthen the weakest point of the Toposso collar to prevent possible surprises.
"If you really have to say it, it should be the Toposso Collar itself. Norma replied incomprehensibly.
At first, Lynch was just discussing with the four members of the Canghui mercenary group, but during the discussion, Bray and Norma and others joined in.
Bray's attitude is very simple, my father will definitely win, and Mr. Lynch is simply thinking too much.
To be honest, if it weren't for Lynch who came up with the theory of Toposso's failure, Bray would have taught him a lesson.
But last time, whether it was serendipitude or Lynch's foresight, his reasoning discussion really led them to the bard.
This incident made Lynch really look like a sage, and people couldn't help but feel that he was probably right.
This feeling is like a class where a respected teacher is answering a question, and the teacher's answer seems to be completely wrong, but how many students can firm up their own opinions and be right?
It is this suppression of thinking that makes Bray and Norma only talk about dissatisfaction or doubt in their hearts.
After Lynch admits that Toposso has no reason to fail.
Putting forward such a point of view really upset Bray, but Norma thought carefully and answered, and Bray did not have a good seizure.
"If we have an attack like a mountain giant now, can we stop it?" Lynch asked further.
"If you can't stop it, the Toposso territory will definitely fail, and as long as the enemy chooses to destroy the food and destroy the Toposso territory, the entire expedition will fail. "Norma's military cultivation is not low, and he knows that for a large army, as long as there is no logistical supply, it is only a matter of time before it collapses.
"However, my father is no more than half a day's journey from Toposo, and if something happens, it is very convenient to return to help. Bray retorted.
"First of all, it depends on whether the father can receive the information. Bray, you have forgotten why the situation in the Dos Mountains is complicated, because the magic element is chaotic, causing a distorted effect, making it very difficult to transmit information, which is one of the biggest obstacles to human life. ”
"So you estimate that half a day is just now, we immediately reported to my father, who received the information in a very timely manner, and then left the troops and rushed back with all his strength, in order to maintain sufficient combat power, it was impossible to rush back with all our strength. ”
"But, where is the enemy?" said Bray, depressed, waving his hand repeatedly.
Yes, no one can understand Lynch's paranoia, on what basis does he think that there is an enemy?
Things are back to square one.
Everyone will look at Lynch, hoping that Lynch will give an answer.
If I knew, I would have to discuss it with you?
"I don't know, but it's as if a god whispers in my ear and tells me that there is a possibility of a great crisis here. Lynch closed his eyes slightly, as if he was really listening to the call of the gods, listening to the warnings of the gods.
Actually, there are no farts.
But there are really gods in this world, and it is wisest to pull their tiger skins to do it.
As for pulling the tiger skin of which god?
"Which god did Mr. Lynch get the revelation?" everyone's expressions became extremely serious, because the gods really existed, so nonsense about lies related to gods was a loss-making business that no one wanted to do.
"It's a song, an unforgettable song. Lynch continued to mutter, putting his hands to his ears, as if he really heard the sounds of nature.
"It's the virtuous wolf, Lord Helo. Norma said in surprise, and then followed Lynch's example, putting her little hand to her ear, hoping to hear the song that haunted her dreams.
This is someone else's guess, Lord Virtuous Wolf, don't bother with me.
Lynch was a little drumming in his heart, other gods he didn't know, of course he didn't dare to talk nonsense, Helo barely knew him, plus he helped them to make alchemy stones for their emotions, for the sake of his own lack of malice, he shouldn't be counted.
As Baron Toposso said, how can a god be so stingy, so it should be okay to borrow a tiger skin.
"Hmm, why didn't Lord Virtuous Wolf give me a revelation to listen to the song again?" Norma tugged at her ears, but couldn't hear it.
"Since it's a revelation from Lord Wolf, why didn't Mr. Lynch talk about it earlier?" Bray is not a fan like Norma, so he can detect the strangeness of Lynch's behavior, and if he had told it earlier, everyone would have believed it.
"Because I don't believe it either. "Lynch put another patch at the end, even if there is no so-called enemy invasion behind, the blame cannot be blamed on Lynch.
Because he is also a person who has seriously confirmed it, and he is also the one who thinks it can't happen.
As for Toposso's labor, what does it have to do with Lynch?
