After Chang Le's encouragement, the whole army was already gearing up and had high morale.

But for a while, it won't be their turn to play.

Chang Le rescued Zalan, planning to take advantage of it, and never did a loss-making business.

The force of the army is only a backing, a deterrent, and he does not want his fighters to shed blood until it is absolutely necessary.

The best plan is to go to Zaran first, meet with King Leonardo's "beloved wife", who is now the Queen Mother Claire, and tell the king his last words, declaring the prince's accession to the throne invalid and supporting the old lady to be the queen.

Then you can mobilize local resources, first maintain deference to the Fisher, suppress the possible resistance of the prince's faction, and when Claire's throne is secured, you can turn around and expel the Fisher garrison.

Although the Great Demon King Aryona is strong, she has also broken through to the Battle Sect, and she may not lose if she fights again.

In this way, as the first hero of the queen's ascension to the throne and the backing of the force, he must have a pivotal position in the kingdom of Zaran.

According to Leonardo's age, the queen should also be fifty or sixty years old, and if she can hold the real power of the Zaran Kingdom, she may have a lot to do in the next change of throne.

So, what kind of identity should I use when I go to the royal capital of Zalan?

The name "Changle" certainly doesn't work, he wiped out 100,000 Zaran troops in the Battle of Sesnek, and is the executioner hated by the Zalan.

You need a pseudonym, a fake identity, and you need to be able to be respected and have enough weight to be heard.

And the most respected in this continent is the high-level magician, and the magician likes to wear hooded robes, which is very good for concealing his appearance.

Just as Changle was pondering all the way and slowly ascending the steps of the castle, he suddenly met an acquaintance.

Young Master Webb was so drunk that his face was flushed, and he raised his hand to greet him when he saw him, and laughed.

But the other party's laughter is obviously abnormal, like a gaffe after drinking to drown his sorrows.

The generals were still huddled around Changle, waiting to go to the conference room to discuss the route of the march, and Miranda hurriedly explained that Weber was uninvited, because he was homeless, so after discussion, everyone vacated a small room in the castle for him.

Weber's downfall was also very simple, because his father, Duke Stennis, was unable to command the border campaign, lost the empire's most elite army of 200,000, and was cut off by the coalition forces, so he had to flee across the river and accept the protection of the Cayenne.

Later, the Duke also sent someone back, saying that he had discussed with the Cayenne people, and suggested that Robert V marry Princess Wendy to Cayan in exchange for the support of the army. The idea itself was unpleasant to the emperor and criticized by his political rival Philip.

The emperor finally adopted Philip's advice and ordered him to form a Western Expeditionary Army to launch a counterattack, but in fact, Philip's performance was not much better, and he hid in the city of Sesnek with his descendants, and closed his door every day, bargaining with the enemy for surrender.

But Changle's mysterious team appeared, coupled with the comeback of Marshal Fontaine, and the unexpected victory in the Battle of Sessnek, the credit was naturally attributed to Philip, who advocated the counterattack, and made him promoted from a marquis to a duke.

After the war, Philip rose to power and mastered the most elite military force of the Empire, and took the opportunity to beat the Reservoir Dogs at Duke Stennis and attacked him as "not only stupid, but also shameless, violating the oath of loyalty, and being worthy of being a nobleman of the Empire".

Many of the families of the victims of the border battle were instructed by Philip to gather in the imperial capital to make trouble, blocking traffic in the busy streets, crying and shouting that Duke Stennis was responsible.

On the one hand, it was difficult for the city defense army to attack the bereaved families of the deceased soldiers, and on the other hand, they also got hints from Philip, so they let it go, making the situation bigger and bigger.

Duke Stennis was originally a supporter of the crown prince and the number one minister of the "Crown Prince Party", but at such a critical moment, the crown prince was busy accepting concubines, and after the luxurious wedding, he took his concubine Fanny out for a "honeymoon" without intervening in the current situation.

It was useless for Weber to find the crown prince and cry in person, the crown prince would never allow anything to interfere with the marriage, and Lord Frank always chose the latter for the country and the beauty.

As a result, the emperor, half genuinely annoyed, half compelled to do so, ordered two days earlier to deprive the Stennis family of titles and domains, confiscate all their property for the benefit of the dead, and expelled those who remained in the fiefdom and became commoners.

A hundred years ago, the glory of the famous imperial general Noah Stennis was swept away, and the prince's vassal nobles were more or less implicated.

Weber, as the only son of the duke, was not only penniless in an instant, but was also chased and killed by Philip, and finally escaped with his strong strength, rushing to Fort Stanley all the way.

Because he was dissatisfied with the duke's "new love", he didn't want to go to Cayan to join his father, and finally ended up "homeless", and Changle, a "rebel fortress", became the safest place in his heart.

Miranda said the end, sighing, and looked at Webb sympathetically.

"Homeless? Haha, General Miranda is polite. Webb laughed, "I'm a lost dog now, Wangwang!"

"What's the matter? I'm not a hotel here!" Chang Le frowned and looked back at the rest of the generals, "The army has taken in an idler, do you want to ask me for instructions?"

All eyes were on Miranda, and it was clear that this was her personal decision.

"Wait for me in the conference room. Seeing this, Chang Le sent the rest away, leaving only Miranda, and snorted coldly at her, "Tell me, what you really think!"

"Don't forget, if you can win the Battle of Sessnek, the basic troops will come from the Sixth Division under the command of Webb and me, and he will cooperate with you at that time and obediently hand over the military power......"

"I want your real thoughts!"

"What do you want to hear?" Miranda looked at him head-on, "Are you jealous and think that I have rekindled my old relationship with him?"

"Joke! I'm jealous of you?"

"It's good that I'm not jealous, and I don't want to have emotional entanglements with you. ”

Miranda's expression was always cold and haughty, and it was the same at the moment, and then she stretched out her hand to Webb:

"This guy can't fight, he's a genius in terms of cultivation, you must not think that he has just broken through to the war spirit, the nineteen-year-old war spirit! He's a fool, it's true that he has offended you, but his essence is not bad, pull him in times of crisis, he will become the trump card in your hands!"

Changle fell silent.

Webber laughed even more maniacally when he heard Miranda's words.

"Ace?haha!Genius?haha!" He sat down on the steps, looking up at Chang Le drunkenly, "I'm a genius who drinks, the ace of picking up girls, is there such a beauty difference, arrange it for me?"

"I don't use this kind of waste. Chang Le commented coldly, and then bypassed Webb and continued upstairs.

Weber has been laughing at himself for a long time, but Chang Le commented on "waste", but he was furious.

The duke's son jumped to his feet, and his eyes jumped with rage:

"I'm a waste? Nineteen-year-old war spirit is a waste? Chang Le, you bastard, you look down on me in the military school, and if you have the ability to fight again, let you know my ...... power"

Webb's body had already ignited the flame of war spirit-level crimson fighting qi, and he threw his fist at Chang Le.

In his eyes, Chang Le's fighting spirit level is also just a junior war spirit, and some of this fight is fought.

But with alcohol on his brain, he seems to have completely forgotten the martial arts competition experience in the military school, and how he, as a peak war master, was unable to form an army in front of the low-level war master Chang Le.

So before he finished his sentence of "let you know how good I am", he was kicked over by Chang Le and rolled down the stairs "gurgling".

When passing Miranda, the girl calmly raised her right foot, made way for the rolling young master, and let him roll to the end.

Webber was a war spirit, of course, he would not be broken, but when he fell into the hall of the bottom building, he stopped getting up and began to cover his face and cry.

Chang Le gritted his teeth and scolded the "waste" repeatedly, and his voice was higher than the other:

"You're not a waste in the military school, you're a villain, but now you're a waste, you're more wasted than garbage! A man was framed as a lost dog, he doesn't know how to fight back and take revenge, he only drinks and cries, you are not a waste, who is?"

Then he turned to Miranda:

"I'll leave this matter to you, tomorrow morning, if he shows up in the hall in good spirits and shouts to me, 'Sir, Webb is here to report,' I'll take him to Zaran, and if he's still a drunk, roll up and get out of here!"

Miranda's face was expressionless, and her feet stood upright:

"Yes, sir!"

In fact, with Weber's dignified appearance, proficient in aristocratic etiquette, and strong personal strength, he can be Zaran's right-hand man, provided that he can change his mind, and Chang Le can give him a chance to change, but he will never condone it.

When they arrived in the conference room, the chattering crowd immediately fell silent.

Chang Le keenly noticed that Lan Yue and Jason were very close to each other, and their hands were also pulled together, and they separated like lightning when they saw him come in, and deliberately separated a few people in the middle when they sat down.

Thinking back to the last time he came to the castle in a hurry, Blue Moon and Jason were rowing in the Starr River, and they didn't have time to dock to get back to the castle, delaying the emergency meeting, it seems that the relationship between the two is no longer ordinary.

Chang Le pretended not to care, took out the full map of the Eastern Continent provided by the blacksmith Chiyan, posted it in front and began to explain.

Tomorrow morning, he will rush to Zaran, and in the same way, the whole army will be drawn at once, but not to fight, but to move to the west side of the kingdom of Zalan and station, along the way to show off their might and fanfare.

When asked, he reported that he was a mercenary, and his employer's information was inconvenient to disclose, and if he was intercepted by any armed force on the way, he would be broken, so that the people of Zalan would know the strength of their army.

The essence of this march was an armed march to deter the Zalan, who were currently extremely weak, so that Changle could be thrown out as an ace in the palace struggle, and if necessary, would also launch combat operations.

The immediate purpose of the expedition to Zaran was to bolster the Queen Mother Claire and regain the throne from Prince Theodore, but the real strategic goal was to seek to establish a new base and thwart the ambition of "Elliot" to annex Zaran.

Since his subordinates didn't know that "Elliott" was really called "Eleona", and they didn't even know that she was a woman, let alone that she was the reborn Great Demon King, Chang Le didn't explain much, and still used "Elliott" to refer to King Fisher.

Elliot has always been the number one enemy of the army, and it is important to stop the expansion of his power, which the generals know and have no objections.

The route of the march is dedicated to the "three regardless" areas on the fringes of the lords' forces, and the relevant terrain and town names are explained in detail by Changle, and the generals firmly remember that these are all from the advice of Thunder, who has been stationed in the demon castle for a long time and knows the kingdom of Zalan well.

After the action plan was finished, Chang Le returned to the table and asked if everyone had any comments.

Of course, there are opinions, and the thin monkey expressed his confusion.

The kingdom of Zaran is far to the west, and there is also the kingdom of Fisher in the middle, how can the army pass through Elliot's nose safely?

Chang Le's march route was from the "Demon Castle" on the north bank of the upper reaches of the Starr River, so how did the troops march before?

"You're right, just fly over. Chang Le smiled slightly, "Who else?

Jason stood up, with a look of disdain:

"Sir, you've won a lot of battles and are overconfident. No matter how weak Zaran is, it is also a kingdom, with a population of five or six million, and it is not difficult to mobilize another hundred thousand troops, we only have more than ten thousand people, half of them are recruits, where does the deterrent come from?"

I don't know if it's because of the blue moon, Chang Le was full of unhappiness when he saw his face, and immediately frowned and asked:

"Aren't you in charge of recruit training? It's been so long, recruits are still recruits, and they don't have combat effectiveness, whose responsibility is it?"

Jason suddenly looked embarrassed, and Lola, who was beside Chang Le, stood up suddenly and scolded him angrily:

"You sit down for me! It's not your turn to interject in the combat meeting!"

Then the female man turned to Chang Le:

"Boss, let me be the vanguard, my newly trained five hundred heavy cavalry is brave and invincible, and I am guaranteed to play majestic!"

"No, you're the boss!" Chang Le smiled and shook his head, "The vanguard has another person, and you can meet him when you get to the demon castle." ”

"Do you have any other troops?" Lola frowned, unhappy, as if a wife had heard that her husband had another woman.

"The people who have just been recruited are all new subordinates. ”

Chang Le didn't explain in detail, laughed, and assigned Iron Fist Louis to take two thousand recruits to defend Fort Stanley, and the rest began to prepare for the trip, and then announced the end of the meeting.

In order to facilitate contact with the troops in the future, he also specially told the thin monkey to take people across the river to the Kayan Forest to bring back Ruiqi, who led the refugees to pioneer the land.

When the expedition was arranged, Chang Le came to the back of the castle and ordered the soldiers to fence a clearing with tarpaulins, and he took out the magic pattern drawing equipment and began to make a teleportation circle.

The so-called whole army "flies" to the demon castle, of course, through the portal.

Two hours after the sun had set, he had finished all his work under the light of the torches, and then he returned to his bedroom, ate a few bites of dinner brought by the guards, sat down on the edge of his bed, and began to meditate.

Now that the bottleneck has been broken, the next cultivation will be a smooth road, as long as you maintain the absorption of source power and accumulate enough strength to upgrade.

However, the time required for this "accumulation" is still unexpected, and even his characteristic "sea influx" method of absorption seems slow, and the nebulae in the inner universe do not see the slightest change.

After the breakthrough, the star orbit is no longer a star track, but a circle of rotating nebulae, only the innermost circle is faintly lit.

It seems that when the realm is high enough, even if it is only one level, it will take a long time, no wonder Eunice and Nomadeus have stood still for decades.

"Why don't you go and read Wendy's picture book first, she's going to pull me to see it, what secrets are hidden?"

Changle stood up from the side of the bed and returned the salute to the guards standing along the way, and walked towards Wendy's bedroom on the second floor.

Wendy had already left, and even though he had only been gone for two hours when he got the news, he could have caught up, but he still chose to give up, because the Church of Light is the best place for the Mad Minx.

The Holy Maiden of Light cannot marry, but as long as she can become a god, obtain eternal life and beauty, and naturally set her eyes on a higher level, how can she care about the vulgar marriage and childbirth in the mortal world?

Thinking of this, Chang Le somehow felt a sting in his heart.

"Since I promised to accompany her to read, she left, and I read it myself. ”

Thinking so, he entered the girl's warmly furnished hut, and then there was no more movement, and the whole person stood stunned, staring at the corner of the room.
