Section 162 So it is
Verse 162 is so
Robin didn't answer, but his expression made it clear that he was dismissive of Baylor's judgment.
"Of course......" Bayral said. "Maybe you don't understand it right now. You know, there are two sayings in the military, one is that you can't underestimate your opponent. The second sentence is called "A fool can't win twice." You can understand it that way," Bayrell said to Robin. "If, in a casino, a gambler who looks silly and has a very stupid gambling strategy wins again and again, it means...... His stupidity may have just been feigned. β
But it could also be because he was particularly lucky. Robin said a little unconvinced.
"Hehe, Robin, when that's what you think in your head...... You have made the greatest mistake a general can make - underestimating the enemy. β
"But...... General, what do I think, it's just an accident. β
"Robin, you've been blinded by prejudice. Bayer said unceremoniously. "Is it hard to admit reality? Reality is...... Our little queen won. No matter what she said about her in the past, she must be corrected in time now. β
"But the city of Fornoros...... General, I've been to see it myself......"
"All you see is what other people show you. Bayrell said. "Some of the truths are universal to the world. Everyone is trying to disguise themselves. The strong disguise themselves as harmless, and the weak disguise themselves as vicious...... On a battlefield, each general will do his best to disguise his plans while trying to debunk the disguises of others. Robin, you have to keep in mind that you can't believe even what you see with your own eyes. β
"Your Excellency, Shogun!, but siege warfare...... The ...... you taught me" Robin still didn't give up. This was because he had actually seen it in Fornoros, and he had reason to believe that it was not Byron's face-saving project.
"Robin, don't look at one thing independently, but think carefully from head to toe. Bayrell said. What is the cause of this...... Well, by the way, it was Byron who staged a coup d'Γ©tat, and our little queen fled from the royal city under the protection of the loyal guards, and then went to the camp of the Guards to organize a counterattack. He paused. "This shows that the little queen is very brave...... Of course, this is normal, and the Makremiz family has been known for their bravery for generations. The next thing was that the little queen quickly assembled a court - not outrageous, but something else incredible. She paid all her debts on time. Do you know what that means?"
"What does it represent?"
"Stands for...... There is some kind of power behind her. β
"What kind of power?" asked Robin. "Is it a vampire? General, you said that vampires would try...... And that guy named Ashrufat! There's a good chance he's the Scarlet Duke himself. β
"I don't know, but it's really unlikely. Beller groaned. "Purely logically, vampires would want to disrupt Gruny, they would want them to run out of strength in a civil war, and they would even want the barbarians to invade in a big way...... But...... Vampires can't support the little queen to quell the chaos as quickly as possible. It's not in his interest. It is even less likely that he would take the risk and intervene in this senseless mess. I'd rather think...... Well, actually, I can't guess. β
"But he may have made a secret pact with the Queen!" robin shouted. "Like a non-aggression pact or something! You said that the main goal of the vampires is to keep Gruni's military power from being mobilized by the Church. β
"What is used to ensure the fulfillment of this secret appointment...... Instead of crossing the river and tearing down the bridge?" Belle asked rhetorically.
"This ...... For example, with ...... Magic or something......"
"You think the people in the church eat rice?" said Bayor. "Anyway, this time the battle with Byron ...... The intelligence clearly states that all the decisions are made by the little queen alone. This shows that ......"
"What does it mean?"
"It shows that the Makremiz family has produced a genius. Bayrell said. "Robin, I seem to have said this type...... Theoretically there is a type of zΓ i. That's right, she probably didn't learn the art of war at all, let alone have any experience. But among the generals who have been famous in history, there are also those who can win by instinct. Don't be unconvinced, the growth of an ordinary general must go through long-term study, practice, and tempering...... Even then, it takes a lot of talent. But there are people who don't need any of these things at all, who are born to fight, who instinctively guess the enemy's actions. In fact, their actions may be groundless, relying only on their own vague instincts, but they are often right. β
"Really...... So powerful?" said Robin, remembering that Bayrell had introduced it earlier. "The ...... you say"
"It's not really good. Bayral smiled. "This kind of general who fights by instinct...... Success is instinctive, and defeat is instinctive. The scary thing about that little girl is...... She's too young...... Too young...... Don't talk about this. That guy Byron didn't lose unjustly, he didn't know how to fight at all...... Not only did he not know how to fight, but he was not at ease entrusting the war to capable subordinates. If you want to talk about playing with power, stealing the treasury or something, he is indeed very talented, but the pressure of war ...... beyond the limits of what his cowardly heart could bear. He was his own people, but he was easily defeated by a surprise attack from the little queen. He didn't think about it...... The position and interests of the neutral side in this war, so ...... He was doomed to have no chance. β
Truth be told, Robin's train of thought couldn't catch up with Bayrell at all. So he's actually a little dazed.
"So, General, what are we going to do next?" he finally broke away from the circle set up by Bayral and decided not to think about the complicated questions.
"We have to know...... It has to be figured out...... Why is it that the little queen, who should be poor and white, has a huge amount of money in her treasury, or is there some special deal behind it?" said Beller categorically. "We have to find out who is behind the little queen......"
A bell rang, interrupting Bayer's words. This bell indicates that someone is visiting outside.
"Robin, go check it out. Bayrell said. Because he was pretending to be sick at home, he couldn't follow the guests.
Robin left as promised, and returned after a meal. When he returned to Bayer's room, he saw that Bayral had already burrowed under the covers, curled up, looking like one of those sick people who couldn't sleep because of his illness.
"Your Excellency, General!" Seeing Baylor's pretending to be a ghost, Robin suddenly felt speechless.
"Ah, Robin, who is coming for me?" Beller asked at once when he saw that it was Robin who had returned.
"His Majesty's envoy!" Robin looked at Baylor's face, angry. Although they have been together for so long, Robin still feels that he can't see through his general. At times, Bayrell was handsome, wise, and brave, but other times, he was no different from the rubbish uncles on the side of the road.
"Envoy, what are you looking for me?"
"Something urgent happened. On the side of the church, a large number of church priests moved to the north. The number may be in the dozens. β
"To the north, to Gruny?" said Beller, who lifted the covers and sat up, frowning. "Why? Priests in the land of Gruni...... The most among all nations. They still need reinforcements?"
"I don't know yet. Robin replied. "But most likely...... Something went wrong with Gruny's northern border. The church needs reinforcements. β
"Oops!" all the smiles on Beller's face faded into a thoughtful expression. "There is only one answer to such a large-scale action of the church...... Those Chaos wizards must have come up with something new!"
......
Rogin hurriedly walked along the mountain path.
This is near the northern border of Gruny, about fifty leagues from the White Castle. Not only was the trail rough, but it was covered with a smooth grass, and several times he almost fell.
But the difficulties under your feet are nothing. At this moment, the ecstasy in his heart prevailed. That's how it should be, that's how it should be...... Well, maybe we should pick another place? No, that's enough! He's got the right answer.
He climbed a hill. This is the highest position in the vicinity, and from the top of the mountain, you can see the situation in all directions.
"Marven said he was waiting for me here?" asked Rogin, a little confused.
As soon as he said the name, he remembered the tall, thin man who looked like a vulture. This image was not to his liking, in fact, any child of Nurgle would instinctively resent the Tzeentch believers. Those guys are forever plotting a conspiracy...... Sometimes, Rogin really wanted to transform that Marven guy into a form, watching him let out a dying howl of pain as the pus from his emaciated body trickled down and finally turned into a mass of carrion that could no longer be recognized......
It's a pity, not this time.
It's really like the guy would choose to meet. The terrain nearby is difficult to walk, but the guy has a flying saucer. It's a disc-shaped, hovering thing -- it's actually some kind of supernatural creature called a magic disk. This item came from Tzeentch's gift. Legend has it that if a magician loses Tzeentch's favor, the saucer will be the first to swallow the master's life. Although Luo Jin hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he really wanted to see it. Of course, it would be better if the object happened to be that Marvin.
As if sensing his inner thoughts, in the blink of an eye, a shining silver flying object appeared from the corner of the mountain in the distance. After a few seconds, Rogin recognized that it was Marven's flying saucer.
In just a few moments, the flying saucer arrived near Rogin with speed and agility that was unattainable on foot. It did not descend to the ground, but hovered at a height of half a man, stopping at a distance of about ten steps from Rogin.
Rogin has embraced the winds of magic and gathered his power in his hands. He doesn't plan to take the initiative, but when you're dealing with a Tzeentch bringer, there's no need to be careful.
The two wizards looked at each other, but neither spoke first. Marven stood on top of his flying saucer, looking random in and out, but Luo Jin still had three of his own retinue on his side.
"My dear companion, don't look so vigilant. After a long time, Marven spoke. His voice was clear and pleasant, and it didn't look like it came out of the throat of such a shriveled and emaciated old man. "I just heard that your real yΓ n has made a lot of progress, so I wanted to check it out. β
"There is also a need for some real yΓ n. Rogin replied. He didn't dare to say a word more, so as not to leave a gap for the other party to take advantage of.
"It's really unfortunate. Tzeentch smiled, but it only raised Rokin's vigilance by three points. With just a command of will, he was able to unleash the power he had gathered, and he felt that Tzeentch had no defenses on his body. A simple spell would have made him ...... Completely disappear from the world.
It's incredible. But it is precisely because of this that Luo Jin is more careful. There is no better adept at disguise and deception than the disciples of Tzeentch.
