Chapter 983: The New Liaison Officer (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Just when everyone was blocking the street and fighting and making trouble, it was on the second floor of the streetside restaurant. The two of them were watching the excitement below.
This location is exactly the highest point near the city gate, and from here you can see the nearby harbor as soon as you look up.
Anyone with a modicum of experience will be able to deduce from the loading and unloading of supplies in the port the current state of the peacekeeping force and even the next military operation.
And when he looked into the city, the end of his sight was the former Hafs's city lord's mansion, which had become the headquarters of the old peace army.
Now there are countless flags flying in the sky there, and each flag is embroidered with different coats of arms, representing that they come from different countries on the continent.
The fluttering battle flags also represent the glory and honor of the legions to which they belong.
Chapter 983 The New Liaison Officer (Asking for a Monthly Pass) And now, with an order, these battle flags have all gathered together. Gathered under the tallest and most prominent battle flag in the middle.
Although the huge battle flag looked a little strange, and only the group of abstract artists could see any beauty in the middle, no one dared to doubt the tremendous energy it represented.
As long as the flag is waved, when the time comes, it will inevitably be the mountains and rivers that will change color, and the blood will flow away~!
Just thinking about that scene was enough to make ordinary people tremble.
In fact, even though this restaurant was still far away from the headquarters, as long as you saw those battle flags, you could still clearly feel the bursts of evil qi coming from there.
But even so, the business of this small building is still excellent.
For this war, the port of Hafs was crowded with soldiers, and tens of thousands of soldiers were suddenly crowded in, and the soldiers, because of their professional characteristics, were the best consumer group among all customersβthe vast majority of these puppies had never had the habit of saving money, and would always clean up the money in their pockets before the next payout.
Not to mention, there are all kinds of merchants who are trying to earn all the gold coins in the pockets of these big soldiers. Those 983 Chapter 983 New Liaison Officers (Asking for Monthly Tickets) Profiteers launched various services with great care for these young and reckless and strong-blooded soldiers.
Just a wink from the beautiful hostess of the tavern was enough to make these young men who had never seen much of the world, and had been in the barracks for too long, and who had seen the old sow with double eyelids, felt that their blood pressure was soaring.
Even like the legendary super invincible Thunderbolt Love Saint, the real man of real men, King Kong Hero, he rushed to the top of the Empire State Building, screaming wildly with his chest in his arms, and playing a dozen for his beloved woman. It's definitely not an impossible thing either.
Naturally, in the process, they will also willingly wipe out every copper plate on their bodies.
Under their strong push, the consumption index of Hafs Port has risen steadily.
Under such circumstances, the tertiary industry, represented by the cultural and entertainment industry, is naturally also developing vigorously. Greatly pulled the g of the port of Hafs. Mouth index.
Now just going to the tavern for a drink is enough to make those big-headed soldiers lose half a month's salary.
In addition, there were a large number of merchants who smelled blood and rushed over like sharks.
With so many people gathered together, it has far exceeded the limits of what Hafs Harf could accommodate. Prices in Hafs Harbour are soaring incessantly.
In a restaurant like this one with a proper location, such a convenient room can never be obtained if it is not booked in advance, or if you are really wealthy.
Now to be able to sit in this position and eat a meal, the huΔ fee required is no longer affordable for ordinary people.
This room is also elegantly furnished, surrounded by some fresh huΔ and antiques, and there are a few oil paintings hanging on the wall.
It shows that the owner of the restaurant has a lot of thoughts, not an outright profiteer.
Although for those who know, those antiques are fake, and the oil paintings are not very good, at most they are the works of third-rate painters.
But the huge ice cube in the corner of the surrounding wall brought a lot of coolness to the room in this slightly hot weather.
In the middle of the seat, sitting is a young man with a square face, tall and dignified.
His thick black hair was combed to the fullest, and he wore what looked like a military uniform, but he had no rank or logo.
Although he is not very old, his popularity is calm and solemn, just sitting there with a straight nose and a majestic appearance, obviously a nobleman from a high background.
Opposite him was an old man with white hair, whose skin was wrinkled like sun-dried orange peel, dressed in finely sewn clothes, dressed like a rich man.
A pair of small triangular eyes only showed a slit, as if they couldn't open in a daze, and their hands were as dry and thin as bird claws, but there was a thick layer of calluses on the tiger's mouth, and it was obviously a warrior who had held a sword for a long time.
There were a few delicate side dishes on the table, but they didn't seem to have been moved.
On the table around the two of them, there were expressionless big men sitting around, faintly surrounding the two of them in the center.
These big men each carried swords and swords, and under the wide robes, the metallic light of chain mail was revealed from time to time, and their eyebrows were full of fierce aura, squinting their eyes and watching everyone next to them vigilantly, as if they would draw their swords against each other if they disagreed.
The guy who served them food was so frightened that he didn't dare to come out, and walked over cautiously step by step, his hands holding the plate were trembling, let alone daring to open his mouth to ask for a tip.
Putting the plate down, the shopkeeper turned around and trotted all the way to escape from the place.
The young man in the middle suddenly spoke and said, "Man, wait. β
The sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy immediately stood in place and didn't dare to move, his legs were shaking with fright, he slowly turned around, lowered his eyes, and said tremblingly: "Guest, what else does the guest officer command?"
The young man picked the corners of his mouth and said in his heart: Am I so terrible?
Then a gold coin popped out of his hand and landed accurately on the young man's plate, making a crisp sound.
The young man's eyes widened suddenly, and the golden light blinded him a little, and then he went out with a thousand thanks.
The young man glanced at the big man beside him and said, "Don't always look like you're going to eat people, there is no safer place in the world now." β
The old man smiled and said, "The eldest son, they are also responsible. Your safety is not your business alone.
Besides, this city is full of heavily armed Ruman soldiers, and our enmity with them is not a day or two. β
The young man shrugged helplessly, then nodded at the crowd in the middle of the street, and said, "It turns out that this guy is the famous Archbishop of Santos." β
The old man looked at the rich archbishop and smiled: "This guy has cheated a lot of people, and even I lost ten gold coins." β
The young man laughed, slapped the table and said, "I thought the teacher wouldn't gamble."
The old man said: "1 Small bet on pleasure, big bet on the country." Still, I reckon there are three people in the entire city who don't hate him. β
"Three?" the young man frowned and thought for a moment, then finally shook his head and said, "I know Lorraine and his Pope's wife, who else is?"
"Prince Leo, of course. The old man said leisurely.
The young man slapped his thigh and laughed, "What the teacher said is very true. But ,........."
The young man put away his smile, squinted his eyes at Archbishop Sandos, who was negotiating with the captain of the gendarme, and said abruptly: "Treat war as child's play, gamble with the generals of the army, and support a general who doesn't understand anything just for a joke."
These Rumans are too proud. I think they're overconfident. β
The old man smiled generously.
The young man shook his head and continued: "The commander-in-chief is busy chasing the queen, the deputy commander-in-chief has his wife and children, and half of the soldiers under his command are not even as good as the militia.
Is this a war? I think they're more like they're on vacation. Look, teacher. β
The old man's small triangular eyes shone brightly, and he glanced at the dejected Archbishop of Sandos, shook his head slightly, and said, "In my opinion...... Not necessarily~!
Lorraine was a young man, commanding 500,000 Flying Eagle God of War, and his momentum was like the sky. Accompanied by squeamish and beautiful concubines all day long, he has not tasted defeat since the battle, and he will inevitably be proud and complacent.
But according to my experience of more than ten years, Archduke Julian is a cunning old wolf, and he is the best at disguising himself, and he cannot be unaware of the disadvantages of doing so......"
The old man touched the thinning hair on the top of his head and thought, "From the old minister's point of view, they should be confident in doing this. β
"Oh?" said the young man, curious, "what do you mean by that?"
The old man tapped his fingers on the table and said slowly: "Because as far as I know, the middle and lower officers of the Ruman army actually have Hadu phobia in their hearts.
Hadou has been mythologized too much in the past few decades, isn't it rumored that Hadou has a pair of eyes that can see through the future.
They probably figured out guΓ² this way to relieve the nervousness of the soldiers. β
The young man thought for a moment, shook his head, and said, "The left way is not the right way. Haddou's power is actually a castle in the air, seemingly sitting on several provinces and 150,000 soldiers, but the so-called allies are of different hearts and minds, just a bunch of chaotic ministers and thieves, who have not achieved enough and have more than enough defeat.
I've researched and found that Haddou is actually the most afraid of tough encounters, and always uses ingenuity to win the enemy.
To deal with Hadu, you should use the main force to contain part of his forces, and then use an elite army to attack his base camp and cut off its roots, and the rest of the army will collapse without a fight.
Now 500,000 troops are eating empty mountains all day long, spending tens of thousands of dollars a day, just caring about endless exercises, what is this called~!"
The old man shook his head and sighed in his heart, he knew that his eldest son also had a dream of a peerless famous general, a beautiful woman and a hero in his heart.
Therefore, this eldest prince has liked military books and war stories since he was a child, and often pestered the generals returning from the front line to tell their combat experiences, and he was already intent on competing with the heroes of the world when he was 1 child.
With his status and future position, this is also a matter of course.
It's just that his father just released him, and he saw that this son was like a young man who had just been slaughtered
Like a lion, he can't hold back the ** in his heart and wants to do a big job.
I can't help but admit that this young man is very talented, he is flexible, talented, and open-minded and willing to learn, and can listen to the opinions of others.
But compared to those old foxes who have been amazed for decades, he was just a little rooster who had just shed his fluff.
The old man thought for a moment, organized his tone, and said, "There is an old saying in the far east, the general who is best at fighting wars can conquer the enemy without going through guΓ² war.
Haddou is a veteran who has never lost a single defeat in his 40 years of debut, and he will not fail to understand this. The greatest victory at the least price is unsurpassed by the people of the world. β
The young man smiled and said, "Isn't it okay to even be a teacher who is known as the first wise general of the empire?"
The old man shook his head with a wry smile and said, "First wise general, people in the world who don't know the truth are often vain and false, and there are countless people in the empire who are smarter than me.
And Haddou, this man has a plan of ghosts and gods, and I am inferior to him. β
The young man was undoubtedly splashed with cold water, touched his clean chin with his fingers, and said, "Is it the plan of the ghosts and gods... If so, we have to reconsider. β
The old man shook his head and said, "No, compared to Hadu, I am more optimistic about the peacekeeping forces. Or, if nothing else, Haddou should not have the possibility of turning over this time.
The Grand Duke of Julius made good use of the Yang plot to set up a dignified army and set up an imperial array. Hundreds of thousands of troops pressed over like snowy mountains.
Either fight him or flee without a fight, we have suffered a lot in this regard.
Commanding large corps was the strength of Grand Duke Julius, on the other hand, Haddou only commanded 50,000 troops at most once in his life. You know, commanding 50,000 and commanding 100,000 troops are completely different things. Not to mention the Count of Lorraine as his deputy.
The name of the Flying Eagle God of War was not blown out, although I had no dealings with him, but I knew that the war games and the war theory were all made by him.
Especially the book "On War"
He created a precedent for military theory, and this alone is enough to make him famous in the annals of history. β
The young man was a little unimpressed. He also grew up in the praise and flattery of others since he was a child, and he is also a figure who can underestimate the heroes of the world.
The old man hesitated, but in order to give the other party a clear understanding of Lorraine,
Then he continued, "You probably don't know. A few years ago, when he was still in school, he did wargames. Help the Grand Duke find out the only weakness of the unruly city. β
The young man's expression suddenly tightened. Is there still a weakness in the evacuation of the city of Marhand?
He hurriedly asked, "What is that?"
The old man smiled and said, "Bombarding with the Orban cannon for half a month, the city of Marand will fall~!"
The young man suddenly disdainfully "Go, snorted." He said, "What kind of weakness is this? The Urban cannon, that's an extremely powerful weapon, and it can be used by ordinary people?"
The old man couldn't help but shake his head at the moment, but he didn't say any more. "Knowing what can be done, knowing what cannot be done" already shows that the other side is already a military master who should not be underestimated by anyone.
What's more, he can't crack this trick at all. This is the most terrible of all. Once the other party really starts to use the Urban cannon, then the fall of the city of Marand is really just around the corner~!
The young man changed the subject at this point and said, "Don't say that this is useless, you should tell me about this war." What tactics do you expect the Grand Guild to use?"
The old man smiled bitterly and said, "Grand Duke Julius?
With such a strong superiority in troops, he didn't need any tactics at all.
Just need to take it step by step, steadily, and compress Haddou's activity space a little bit, and Haddou will eventually be like a fish in a pond that has been drained, no matter how powerful this fish is, it can only suffocate to death.
This is also the reason why the general majesty will rest assured that the eldest prince is coming. β
The young man shrugged his shoulders and pouted, "I hate to fight this kind of unskilled battle, and besides, how long will it take? half a year or a year? Will the undead set aside this time for them?"
The old man laughed, "That's not something I could guess. β
"I see~!" the young man suddenly slapped the table and said with a smile.
"What does the Grand Duke understand?" I understand why Lorraine had raised this Archbishop of Sandos. Because Lorraine must be bored, just like a cat will play with a ball of thread when he is bored. β
The old man was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "It's really possible." This lovely archbishop has no value worth cultivating when viewed horizontally and vertically. β
The young man sighed, stood up, and said, "Let's go, teacher, after coming here for so many days, we should have seen almost everything, and we should also go to meet this Flying Eagle God of War, Lord Lorraine." β
The old man threw down a few gold coins, waved his hand to the big men around him, and a few of them jumped up quickly and walked downstairs first.
The young man walked towards the commander-in-chief of the peacekeeping force, and the bodyguards around him mixed in the crowd and protected him in the middle.
A few streets away from the General Headquarters, there is already a military zone demarcated by the peacekeeping forces, where the headquarters of the peacekeeping forces and various logistics, military police, intelligence agencies, as well as dormitories for some soldiers are located.
The soldiers guarded several roads in and out.
But they don't check pedestrians, so there are many civilians with bills of lading carts mixed in with the crowd of soldiers, mostly hawkers selling vegetables and meat.
The young man and the old man were flanked by a dozen guards, and when they entered the military zone, the soldiers on duty only glanced at them curiously, probably thinking that they were the commanders and retinues of some Holy See legion.
Until the vicinity of the headquarters of the headquarters, the defense became tighter, which can be described as one post at a time, and the half-orc soldiers in black heavy armor standing guard at the gate are still standing guard. In the midst of them were mages and priests.
It can be said that it is difficult to cross the real bird.
Inspections have also begun to become more careful, and personnel entering and leaving the headquarters have to show their own documents, and the weapons and items they carry with them have to be opened and carefully examined.
There was a long line at the place where they were waiting to enter, but no one dared to complain, because right next to them, a group of half-orcs like iron towers, with broad-edged swords in both hands, examined everyone beside them with cold eyes.
The greatsword that reflects the cold light can cut a person into two pieces like a jelly as long as it is wielded.
Young and old people could only obediently line up behind the crowd, patiently waiting to check in the door.
Beside the young man stood an orc infantryman, holding a shield in one hand and a steel spear in the other.
The young man seemed to have seen a rare toy, staring at the orc without blinking, and looked up and down carefully several times.
The orc glanced at him for a moment, then turned his gaze to the guards behind him, who seemed to them to be much more dangerous than the little white face in front of him.
The young man pulled the old man and said in a low voice, "Teacher, what do you think of these orcs?"
The old man glanced at the half-orc heavy infantry and said, "When the half-orcs went to the battlefield, the old minister had already been transferred.
However, according to Cialis, he suffered a lot under these orcs, and these beasts were born for war. β
The young man sighed, and then said angrily: "Why is Lorraine's luck so good~!"
"Hello, please show your ID. There was a stereotypical tone of the gendarmes on the side.
Only then did the young man come to his senses, and it was already their turn.
The young man suddenly straightened up, raised his head proudly, and said, "Please inform the commander-in-chief of the peacekeeping forces, and the liaison officer of the Parthian Empire's peacekeeping forces." βοΌοΌοΌ
