A beautiful female adjutant brought black tea to the general. In the hot fog of tea, the servants sat down one after another, waiting for the female adjutant to leave.

Drinking black tea, Dipu sighed a little in his heart. I don't know when I started to sit on an equal footing with these top figures in the mainland. It's funny to think about, Dipu has really fought for a lot of things in his life, and he has even been jealous several times. But in terms of power, he has never reached out once, and he is not even interested. It can be regarded as an unintentional willow and willow shady! Unknowingly, Dipu has climbed to such a high position.

The female adjutant quietly closed the door, and the servants continued the conversation just now. Obviously, before Dip came over, Anton and von Boone had already communicated and reached a certain consensus. Of course, it can also be seen that in fact, among these generals, Dip is the one who is the last and subordinate.

General Anton continued the topic just now: "Whatever the case, we can't afford to wait. On the contrary, the demons can afford to wait. So we can't sit down in the Guana River anymore, we need to take the initiative. ”

"Initiative?" said Dipu with a frown, "Your Excellency the General......

"I'm not in the army now, just call me Anton!" Anding smiled at Dipu.

Dipu is as good as a stream: "Anton! There is a question: the demons and the steppe barbarians should have several millions, right? And we, counting the people, have less than a million troops. If you have less versus more, you should defend it, right?"

Von Boone, who was on the side, nodded in agreement: "It's really risky. You don't know much about the intelligence you've been spotting these days. The Empire and the Holy See have already sent a number of masters, and they have fought several fierce battles with the demons on the north bank of the Guana River, and they have damaged each other. However, there are also new discoveries, and the approximate strength of the demons and steppe barbarians has finally been estimated. It's all in the millions. Their forces were divided into four parts: one was the territory of the former Red Lion Duchy north of Lion's Tooth City. It seems that this is the territory assigned by the demons to the savage barbarians. And the steppe barbarians also operate in this area. Except for more than 200,000 troops guarding the north of Lion's Tooth City, besieging but not attacking, the other steppe barbarians were all in this area, plundering everything they saw. ”

"The other piece is the perimeter of Lion's Tooth City. The 600,000 or 700,000 army of the demon race, plus the 200,000 grassland barbarians, had already surrounded the Lion's Tooth City. There is another piece, that is, the demon clan has divided 200,000 troops, stationed on the other side of the Guana River from afar, monitoring our movements. And the last piece was the one we had worked so hard to scout. For this, even one saint of the empire and dozens of sword sects and high-level magicians were sacrificed. The area is called the Kershin Mountains, and it is beyond the borders of the Red Lion Principality. According to known information, the demons were the first to appear in this area. And in this Kerkhin Mountains, there are more than 100,000 demons stationed. ”

At this introduction, Dipu immediately understood: "The entrance to the passage should be in this Kerkhin Mountains, right?"

"Yes!" von Boone nodded, "Possibly." ”

Dipu thought for a moment and continued to ask, "What about our troops?"

This time, General Anton replied: "The strength of Lion's Tooth City is more than 200,000. Except for the troops that had withdrawn from the Guana River, the last troops of the Red Lion Principality were all inside. In addition, hundreds of thousands of young people have been mobilized in the city. But they're all civilians, and they can't be used. It stands to reason that Lion's Tooth City should have missed a long time ago. The difference between the strength of the two sides and the top combat power is too great. These days, the demons have launched three forbidden spell sieges. But His Excellency the Grand Duke still held on. Not to mention, His Excellency the Grand Duke does live up to his name. ”

"And our Northern Army has thirteen knight brigades, more than 130,000 horsemen. Six cavalry divisions, less than 100,000. Sixteen infantry divisions, about 300,000. There are also nine old-fashioned infantry regiments that have not been reorganized, with more than 40,000 people. In addition, the remnants of the Red Lion Principality, the brigade that removed the Red Lion Knights, had more than 60,000 troops. The troops of the Tro Kingdom and your private army and personal guards are less than 30,000, and the troops of Beamon are 20,000. The total strength is less than 700,000. Also, at that time, you and Diego urgently mobilized, and there were more than 80,000 recruits left in the Guana River. ”

Hearing General Anton's introduction, Dipu was even more puzzled: "Your Excellency Anton! The number of troops left behind must not be less than 200,000. If it is difficult for only 500,000 troops, or even the 200,000 troops of the demon clan facing each other on the other side of the river, how can they act?"

"Hehe!" General Anton nodded with a smile, "It's true that the number of troops is a bit insufficient now. However, within a month, the main force of the Immortal Gardenia Knights is 90,000, a wing of the Holy Knights is 30,000, and the main force of your Holy Spring is 20,000. In addition, the 100,000-strong mixed army drawn from the Imperial Capital Guards will also arrive under the leadership of General Dimet. Hehe, General Dimiit was originally the youngest general in the Empire, only in his early thirties. Of course, now with Dipu you, he ...... Oh, Dip, you're already a general, and Dimmit is still the youngest. ”

"Hahaha!" the couple laughed, a light-hearted moment in the midst of a tense military discussion.

After laughing for a while, General Anton continued: "Oh! I almost forgot to tell you. It may soon be a war zone system. ”

"War zone system?"

"Yes, our five northern counties and the Red Lion Principality are designated as the Northern War Zone. The Kingdom of Tro, as well as the Kingdom of Beamon and the Forest of the Moon Ring, were designated as the Northwest Theater of Operations, under the overall command of His Majesty the King. Dawn City is the South-Central Theater of Operations, under the overall command of Captain Kotler. For the time being, these three theaters of war. "General Anton did not say who would be the commander-in-chief of the Northern Theater of Operations. Generally speaking, it should definitely be General Anton, but in case the Red Lion Grand Duke Van Bock escapes from the predicament, this candidate is also a little troublesome.

General Anton took a sip of black tea: "Among the five northern counties, the strength of three counties has been completely gone, and only four regiments are left in the remaining two counties. However, the military headquarters is going to send a group of officers and 100,000 supplies first, and then reorganize several divisions. In the future, we will continue to recruit and reorganize. However, it will be difficult to support the troops, and it will depend on us to solve it. After all, it is also possible that the main force of the demon race will appear in other directions. The Reich and the Holy See are to reserve a general reserve. Ryder's Southern Army now has more than a million men. It is hoped that the southern rebellion will be resolved sooner rather than later, and this force will be freed up. ”

Dipu immediately understood that this "theater system" was actually a matter of each person sweeping the snow in front of his own door! )
