Chapter 408: Getting on and Offboarding
Smack. A drop of cold sweat fell on the booklet in his hand!
At this moment, Char had a strange feeling, and only felt that among the people he had met in his life, "I am afraid that there is no woman who can give herself such a strong sense of danger as the wife of the governor of the Besta Military Region in front of her!
If Merlin is said to be a person with her strong personal strength, she makes people think she is terrible in an arrogant and unreasonable way...... Then, the lady in front of her has a more unfathomable feeling than Merlin.
Since I saw this woman today, "whether the two are talking or scheming, there is no doubt that the turtle is at a disadvantage! Even his own mind is secretly moving, and the other party seems to be able to see through what he thinks at a casual glance! Such a scheming woman is not only a woman, such a scheming person, Char has only had this feeling of helplessness in his life when he was in front of the legendary dead Cavishir!
Although the booklet in his hand is only a thin booklet, the people recorded on each page on it are all famous people on the mainland!
Among them, there is the governor of the powerful military region who dominates the side with heavy troops, there is the famous imperial general who shook the continent, and even Char vaguely saw the head of General Adric on the page he hurriedly turned just now!
I'm afraid that there are dozens of people recorded in this booklet, and each of them is a prominent figure on the mainland. How much effort does it take to obtain such a large amount of information? How much manpower and material resources are invested; How much secret planning is necessary; What a huge network of intelligence relationships must be possessed? and even ...... To get so much valuable information, such a thin booklet, I don't know how many people have worked hard or even their lives in exchange for it!
This woman ...... This Governor's wife of the Besta Military Region, even though she is a well-known Governor's wife on the mainland, even if she has raised the rule of the Besta Military Region, even though she exists in the line of everyone as a woman with outstanding ability...... Even the Besta Military Region is a backbone of the Red Round Table Alliance...... But one by one, one by one
She spent such a huge amount of money to collect information about so many important people, what was her intention, what was her intention, and why did she prepare it?!
Char originally wanted to continue to read a few more pages, but the governor's wife, who was sitting opposite, looked at her with that smile and groan, but there was an obvious warning in her eyes - Char understood that she would not allow herself to continue to turn the page. Deliberately showing this thing to yourself is just a deterrent.
Char took a deep breath and closed the booklet, at this time, his eyes glanced at it, but he saw the cover of the booklet, on the lower left foot, lightly marked a few words with a charcoal pen. "Byzantium"
As soon as he saw these words, Xia Ya's eyes immediately shrank again! But this time he hung his head very carefully, and did not let the woman opposite see the change in his eyes.
Byzantium?
What does this mean?
Char's heart became more and more surprised: if it was to classify this booklet and mark it...... Then it means that this woman is afraid that she has more such a roster in her hands!$ material! Since there are Byzantine ones, I am afraid that maybe there will be Odin's side, Lantis's side, and even ...... That legendary Babylon city?!
It is just a military region, but it has made such a far-reaching and important layout and collected so much intelligence information...... What a huge plan does this woman have in her heart?! Just a little hard guessing will make people feel shocked!
He pretended to be relaxed and handed the booklet back to the governor's wife, the woman smiled, as if she didn't care about Char Muran's expression, and casually stuffed this priceless booklet into the dark compartment under the seat cushion, that casual action and expression, as if what she was holding in her hand was not a piece of information received with the lives and painstaking efforts of countless people, but a miscellaneous book of poetry worth no more than a few copper plates. "You seem surprised?" said the Governor's wife, smiling at Char.
Char reluctantly tugged at the corners of his mouth: "I shouldn't be surprised? Anyone who sees this kind of thing will be surprised." ”
"Huh. The Governor's wife smiled, "You must be thinking." I'm such a woman, it's just my duty to govern the Besta Military Region with all my heart, but what to do with so much intelligence, do you have the heart to ...... the world?"
Char immediately shook his head, and he also laughed loudly: "That's your business, why do I think so much? Maybe you like to collect this kind of thing, maybe you have this kind of habit—I heard that women are very gossipy." ”
The Governor's wife didn't seem to care about Char's somewhat mocking words, she looked out the car window, looked nonchalantly, and said softly: "Marshal Char, I heard that you were seriously injured on your last outing. It's a pity that he was originally a world-famous fierce general, but he has become as strong as he is now, originally I also thought that the person who dared to face the Odin Valkyrie Hasting alone on the battlefield, and also injured the other party, would be such a demeanor, and I heard that you just joined the army, the first time you experienced the battle array, you slashed a prince of Odin, only this one credit, is enough to leave a heavy mark in the history of the empire's war in the past ten years. At the age of twenty, you have risen like a comet in just two years, with outstanding strength, and you have gathered a group of talents under your command, and the remnants of the Rhoderian cavalry are the backbone, and now you have 20,000 soldiers and horses in the north, occupying half of the county's land, such strength is enough to become one of the great powers of the empire now. What's more, I heard that you have also been appointed by the royal family and the empire to rule over the counties in the northern part of the empire...... With such a great authority, as long as you are given a year or two to calmly clean up the situation, the future will be limitless!" "Are you complimenting me?" Char interrupted the other party coldly.
“...... Sort of. The Governor's Wife thought for a moment and smiled lightly: "I heard that you are going to have a wedding recently, and that bride seems to be the cousin of Emperor Garcia and the daughter of a deceased prince of the Odin Empire. Bloodline from the royal families of both countries...... After I got your information, I have looked through the history of the empire for nearly two hundred years, and it seems that after your debut, it has been smooth sailing, full of adventures, and almost unfortunate characters...... In two hundred years, there hasn't been one!" Char chuckled dryly. "No, not just two hundred years...... Throughout the history of the Empire, which has been founded for thousands of years, there has never been such a strange figure as you. In less than two years, he has become a powerful party with a civilian cloth, Your Excellency Char, may I ask, what should I think of you?" "You think I'm lucky?" Char couldn't help but smile bitterly. "Of course-d"
Char opened his mouth and was lucky? Lao Tzu still thinks that he is an unlucky ghost......!
"Whether you are lucky or not, it depends on what happens to you, it seems that every time you encounter something, you always become one of the last beneficiaries in the end! Think about it carefully, since you joined the army, the first battle was the first battle, I heard that your vanguard cavalry was ambushed and suffered heavy damage, but you stabbed a prince Odin in the chaos of the army! Later, in the battle of the Arbuckt Plains, you stayed behind because of your injuries! It turned out to be precisely your presence, commanding the defensive battle against the surprise attack of the Black Flag Army of Hasting, and you commanded the defense and held out until the time for the army to withdraw. There are also hundreds of cavalry charging into battle to rescue friendly troops, as well as the great deeds of fighting against Hastings alone on the battlefield. Although it was crushed by the high-level for a time afterwards...... I have to say, that time, you were doomed! You offended that guy Bonfret, and you took the credit, in that case, you would have never been able to turn over! Even if you were not sent to a military court, you would have been exiled to the frontier. But (8(8, your luck is against the sky!Hasting actually single-handedly entered the country hundreds of miles, infiltrated the garrison and openly assassinated Bonfret!As soon as Bonfrett died, it was equivalent to the biggest stone on your body was extremely dropped!You were rehabilitated, and the credit fell on your head again, and then you went all the way to the imperial capital to be entitled, but somehow you suddenly got the appreciation of Emperor Kantos...... Hmph, in that hunting meeting, the emperor swore drunken in front of many powerful people, and it has become a good story of the empire! Your reputation has been raised again...... Take a closer look, all your experiences, one by one, even if you go through all the repetitions, but in the end, the person who always gets the most benefits, even I can't help but have a ridiculous thought: Are you really blessed by the gods?
The wheels were rolling, and Char listened to the sound of horses' hooves collapsing, and he couldn't help but have a ridiculous feeling in his own heart. Seem...... Belch...... What this woman said seems to really make some sense. Even though the process is difficult, everything I encounter seems to have taken advantage of myself in the end.
But this thought flashed in his heart, and Char immediately looked at the governor's wife: "Okay, let's explain what you mean, I have fallen into your hands, do you want to kill or chop, or do you want to leave me to the Odin? Hmph, have you and the Odin reached a compromise again? Even Gaia, your own ally, can be killed, let alone me? Manninger hates me now, and he is afraid that he hates me so much that he hates me, and sending my head to Manninger may be of great benefit to you!"
Mrs. I$l listened and smiled slightly, and then the woman suddenly sighed softly: "If I had caught you two days ago, I would have really made such a decision: kill you and send your head to Manninger's table, or escort you, a big living person, to Manninger and let him vent his anger." But now...... Char-sama, as I just said, your luck saved you again......! It's just two days away.
"Oh?"
Char didn't understand and looked at the woman suspiciously.
"Two days ago, I would have killed you, but now, don't worry, Char-sama, your head will continue to grow on your neck, at least with me, you won't be in any danger.
"Why?"
Char couldn't help but ask.
"Are you my enemy?
Char shook his head: "No, but I'm from the Empire, and I'm Manninger's enemy, and you're Odin's secret allies......"
"No more. Or rather, at least the Besta Military District, no longer gone!"
The governor's wife looked at Char and said it in an understatement, but the words she said made Char's heart suddenly set off a frenzy!
"I got the news two days ago that just in the south, Catania City, the fourth largest trading port of the Empire, a Lantis fleet has arrived, and more than 30,000 Landis troops have landed" and immediately take control of Catania, which will become the landing point of the Landis follow-up army, and the Royal First Fleet of the Landis Kingdom, including the legendary 'Freelander', has been dispatched and is heading towards the inland sea of the Byzantine Empire. You should understand what I mean, Lord Char, right? The Kingdom of Lantis has entered the war, and has joined the war as an ally of the Byzantine royal family!"
Listening to the dignified F6 anger of the governor's wife, Char was shocked in his heart, and he was stunned: "I...... I don't understand, the Lantis are in the war, shouldn't you be more united with the Odin, and you should maintain a close relationship with Manninger and them......"
"Hahaha......" The governor's wife laughed, but with a bit of mockery and disdain in her crisp and pleasant laughter: "Ally with the Odin...... Such a decision, only those idiots in El Salvador would think so!"
Looking at Char's dazed expression, a trace of disappointment flashed on the governor's wife's face, and she sighed softly: "Alas, it seems that you are not as smart as in my preparatory department...... Hmph, I overestimated your wisdom. Char's face turned red, and then he said with a straight face, "What do you want to say, just say it and leave!"
The governor's wife said lightly: "After the war began, the governors of all military districts sent troops to participate in the battle, and the coalition forces gathered under the city of Osgilia, but I, as a staunch supporter of El Salvador, sent a soldier and only sent a batch of grain, grass and ordnance." Char's eyes suddenly flashed with a strange light.
"Before the start of this war, I wrote to El Salvador, telling him that the most urgent thing to do at present is not to immediately gather heavy troops to attack Osgilia, but to get in touch with the Landis as soon as possible and at all costs! Unfortunately, Salvador has been clever all his life, but at this time he is confused! The connection with the Landis has not been taken seriously by them...... Hmph, the first step is already aluminum!
After the war began, the Odin people went south, and I used to strongly oppose it! Perhaps the alliance thought that the Odin people's southward movement could help the alliance deal with several corps of the imperial royal family in the north, but such a move was simply to lure the wolf into the room! The alliance overestimated the combat effectiveness of the imperial royal family's several corps in the north, but underestimated the savagery and ambition of the Odin! The sixth and seventh corps in the north, we can completely solve it by ourselves! At most, it was just a matter of spending some more time and energy, the Sixth Corps had suffered heavy losses in the last war, and the main backbone, the Ruhr, had already been transferred to the Rhodrian Corps, and the backbone of this corps had already been broken, so there was no need to be afraid at all! And the commander of the Seventh Corps was originally a mediocre talent, and it was not difficult to destroy it! At that time, I strongly suggested that El Salvador should send 30,000 allied troops north, and the strength of my Besta Military District, together with the Corsican Military District, would be enough to deal with these two armies. But Salvatore and Hughes, the two fools, only have Osculia in their eyes! The conquest of Osculia has become the primary standard in their hearts. They refused to divide their forces against the Imperial Central Army in the north, preferring to bring the Odin into their homes...... Such a move, the second step is also aluminum!
In the middle of the war, when the Rhodría Corps abandoned its garrison and marched long distances to aid Osgilia, I strongly advocated that El Salvador order the governors of all local military districts to intercept the Rhodrian Corps at all costs! No matter how powerful the Rhodrian cavalry was, what if it was all iron? However, if the troops of 20,000 people marched to Osgilia for a long time, if the various military districts along the way could really work together, it was absolutely possible that the strongest army of the imperial family would be eaten! It doesn't matter if you eat the Ródria cavalry, the important thing is that you must kill the crown prince Garcia in the Rhodría cavalry army! As long as you can kill the crown prince Garcia, then the royal family of the Byzantine Empire will be in chaos! Osgilia will be shaken immediately! Such a good opportunity, but the governors everywhere have the selfish desire to preserve their strength, and the guy in El Salvador doesn't seem to care...... They foolishly thought that a few hundred thousand coalition troops would be enough to conquer Osgilia...... These guys also made a mistake in the third step! Xia Xian's heart moved when he heard it! Kill Station R Garcia?!
Indeed, this was indeed a good opportunity! If the military districts in various localities at that time could intercept the Rhodrian cavalry at the expense of their strength, no matter how strong the Rhodrian cavalry was, a mere 20,000 people would have to cross the jurisdiction and interception of several military districts and run to Osgilia...... Once Crown Prince Garcia is killed or captured, I am afraid that the city of Osgilia will collapse immediately, this is a very simple reason! Garcia is the only heir to the imperial throne! Remember, the "only" heir!
Even if Emperor Kantos was not dead at that time, the old emperor was already old and seriously ill! If there was no only heir, it would be tantamount to digging out the roots of the imperial family! The old emperor's time was short, and the future crown prince was gone...... Then the imperial family is only afraid that there is really a seventy percent chance of collapse!
"The fourth mistake is to win over the Byzantine Empire's navy! Although the Byzantine Empire's navy is too weak to compete with the Landis, it is still enough if it only protects the major ports along our coastline.
However, El Salvador has always been reluctant to give up its own words about the Navy's wooing, and has been arguing with the other party for so long...... A fleet of Landis arrived at Osgilia and completed the sea supply line to Osgilia, which not only increased the difficulty of conquering Osgilia, but more importantly, greatly improved the morale and confidence of the Osgillian defenders! At that time, if Salvador and others had the decision to dare to fight with the Landis at sea at any cost, even if they lost, they would have to show their tough stance with actions, then even if the Landis people had the heart to participate in the war, they would have to hesitate for a while! The later the Landis entered the war, the more beneficial it would be to the Red Round Table Alliance! But this simple truth was not understood by the Salvadoran Monastery! After the sea supply line was opened by the Landisians, they were actually at a loss, fighting and not fighting, and not making peace, and even these fools immediately shelved their contact with the Byzantine army, thinking that anyway, the Landisian navy had already entered, and there was no point in winning over the Byzantine own navy, and even if they were to win over, they would not be able to defeat the Lates' navy...... It's a shame that Salvatore and Hughes can come up with this kind of bastard idea!"
"The fifth mistake is to suddenly invade the Corsican Military Region in Manninger! The war for Manninger to annex the Corsican Military Region lasted for a full month, and this month's precious time, if you have the intention to do something, you can completely deal with this matter with the best result! Either you will immediately abandon the Corsican Military Region and curry favor with the Odin at any cost! Or you will immediately break with the Odin, mobilize troops to aid the Corsican Military District, and maintain unity within the alliance with a tough attitude towards the outside world! But these guys above are actually so noisy, dragging around, and passing precious time in vain! At that time, if they could make a decision immediately, whether it was to break with the Odin, or to abandon the Corsican people and immediately curry favor with the Odin, at least make a decision and act immediately, they would get a good result! But now, ...... After such a long delay, the Corsican military district was annexed, and the Odin people saw the weakness of the alliance, and the northern military districts within the alliance were suspicious, everyone was in danger, and there was no longer unity within the alliance...... I can't imagine a worse outcome!"
Speaking of this, the governor's wife sneered: "The five stages were originally promising, but Salvatore and Hughes, who pretended to be heroes, faced with the five tuba opportunities, each time they made the worst and stupidest decision among the countless choices, and got the worst result...... If it was just one mistake, it would have been five serious mistakes in a row...... Hmph, now that Landis's army has landed, it has already sounded the death knell for the Red Round Table Alliance!"
Char's face became more and more strange as she listened. This woman is the wife of the governor of the Besta Military Region, which is one of the backbones of the rebel alliance, but here she attacks the rebel leaders such as Salvatore and Hughes so much, and even, the meaning of her words seems to be one by one
He took a deep breath, looked at the governor's wife, and suddenly said softly, "So...... The Besta Military District, which you represent, prepare ...... Disembarked?"
"Get off the boat?" The Governor's wife immediately narrowed her eyes, looked at Char, her tone changed, and she smiled slowly: "I just said, the Besta Military Region did not send troops to attack Osgilia, and we have never had a 'JL ship', so where did the 'disembarkation' come from?" Char and the Governor's wife glanced at each other, their eyes flickered, and they were full of cunning.
