After hearing Main's idea, Sawin couldn't help but stare at his face for a long time, as if he had met Main for the first time, when did this Main become so concerned about politics?

"When did Master Main care so much about politics?" asked Savan with some curiosity.

Seeing that Savin was so sensitive to these issues, Main couldn't help but smile and said, "Actually, I wanted to talk to you about this before, but there was always no suitable opportunity, and this time I heard that the king had united foreign armies, and I thought it was just an opportunity." ”

Sawin chewed Main's words carefully, and secretly analyzed in his heart, these thoughts may not be Main's personal meaning, but should be the meaning of the senior management of the Magic Guild. It is indeed a good choice to use religion as an excuse for war, but in this way, the signs of the Holy Sect of Light and the Magic Guild have been erected, but what should I do, I have completely become a puppet of the Magic Guild.

The more Savin thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was very high, although he had to rely on the Magic Guild, he must not be led by the nose by them, otherwise he would be too passive......

With a plan in mind, Sawin said to Main: "The master's idea is indeed a brilliant plan, but this matter is more complicated, and I have to think about it carefully, in case it is not handled well, I am afraid that it will affect the reputation of the church." ”

Seeing that Sawan neither rejected his proposal nor agreed immediately, Main knew that such a major proposal could not be approved at one time, and that Sawin had to be instilled with such an idea slowly, so Main didn't say anything, and the two chatted a few words before Main got up and took his leave.

Early the next morning, Sahain summoned a meeting of the main generals of the army, at which Savin first announced a decision to inform General Logaris that his army should retreat to the territory of the former Count of Leblas. The question of whether Logaris should intercept at the border or retreat for defense has been debated within the military for several days, but there is no consensus on what everyone has to say.

Now Savin has made a direct decision to ask Logaris to step back and defend, thus putting an end to this problem. Those who advocated retreat were naturally overjoyed, while those who advocated keeping the enemy out of the country were very unconvinced, and they all felt that Sawan was too arbitrary, and announced the final result without any explanation, which made people feel convinced.

However, Savin did not intend to explain anything, partly because he didn't want to, and partly because he couldn't. As a superior, Sawin doesn't want to explain everything to his subordinates, it will seriously affect his authority over time, and some things he only needs his subordinates to execute.

Another reason why this incident cannot be explained is that there are more far-reaching considerations for this war, and this idea cannot be leaked out at present.

Savin said to the generals of the army: "In this battle, we are evenly matched with the enemy in terms of strength, and with the help of magicians, our army has an advantage in general, but we should not take it lightly, after all, most of our soldiers are new recruits, so everyone must still be in good spirits, otherwise it is likely that the boat will capsize in the gutter." I would like to ask everyone to remember that if anyone dares to underestimate the enemy and cause a disadvantage in the war, there is only one way to deal with it by military law!"

Seeing that Savan's attitude suddenly became serious, everyone quickly put away their contempt for the enemy and listened carefully to Savin's lecture. Sawin said to Hortz: "General Hortz will be the specific person in charge of this operation, how to fight this war is commanded by General Hortz, I only ask for one thing, we must beat the other party to the bum!"

No one expected that Sawin would not command the war, but would delegate power to Hortz, a decision that surprised everyone, including Hortz. Hortz felt that Sawin was becoming more and more unfathomable, and he was no longer on the same level as the ignorant boy he knew at the beginning, and now Sawin had a momentum of not being angry and arrogant, and often taught people to not see his true thoughts.

Savin then announced several of his demands, but they were all in principle and did not involve specific arrangements for the war. After the announcement, he left the barracks, leaving Hortz and others to discuss the specific battle plan, and it seemed that he really wanted to completely hand over the command of the war to Hortz.

Feeling trusted by Sahain, Hortz also felt a heavy responsibility, and sent Sahain away, and he immediately began to discuss the battle plan with the generals and staff officers. Although Savin did not give clear instructions, the decision to let Logaris step back and defend actually set the tone for this war, which was to shrink the defense and leave enough strategic depth.

While Hotz and the others were busy every day for the coming war, Savin took a break from these chores and ran to the palace every day, during which he also attended several court meetings. In order to give Sawan a clear identity, the Duke of Amberton canonized Sawan as the Duke of Haydonnice and Minister of Defense, so that Sawan finally had a real title of nobility.

Information continues to arrive from the front that the combined forces of King Malves and King Pesanis have crossed the border between the two countries and begun to advance towards Tetur. At Savin's behest, Logaris had retreated to the former Count of Leblas, relying on a fortified castle to hold on.

At present, Logaris's supplies are very sufficient, as long as he doesn't attack casually and hold on for a few months, there will be no big problems, this does not need to be reminded, I believe that Logaris, an old fritter, will also do well. Sawan only had a general grasp of the war preparations for Hortz and others, and he completely trusted Hortz in the details, looking like a real monarch, which was unanimously praised by the military.

However, the Magic Guild was a little worried, and it was not for him to be the shopkeeper when he chose Sawan as the agent of the guild, so Main approached Sawan several times, in addition to asking him to make more snacks for the war, he also kept instilling in Sawan the idea of using religion as an excuse for war.

Sawan understood the meaning of the Magic Guild very well, they planned to use the war to expand the influence of the Light Holy Sect, and the Magic Guild was hidden behind the Church and became the real helmsman on the continent. Sawan promised Main's request, but in reality he had an idea of his own, but he couldn't tell anyone else about it yet.

Just a few days before the army was about to depart, a shocking news suddenly came out of the palace, which immediately caused a great shock in the country of Hironis. On this morning, the ministers and nobles still arrived at the chamber of the palace early, as usual, and waited for the court meeting to begin.

As the new nobleman and minister of defense, Savan also appeared in the council chamber, which caused a small discussion among the courtiers. The nobles and courtiers consciously distanced themselves from Savin, who was not surprised to see that no one dared to approach him, and deep down these nobles still regarded him and the Duke of Amberton as usurpers.

However, Savan was not alone, and there was a group of newly promoted officials behind him, all of whom were promoted from the middle and lower levels of officials after the Duke of Amberton came to power, and were staunch supporters of the Duke of Amberton and Samhain, so there was a clear distinction between the two factions in the court. Some people refer to these two factions as the nouveau riche and the traditional.

At the very beginning of the court meeting, someone from the nouveau riche faction presented a proposal, and when the clerk of the Duke of Amberton read it aloud, it suddenly exploded like a thunderbolt at the court meeting.

"Wechen suggested that King Malves III be clashed for treason...... Collusion with foreign armies to invade is the greatest betrayal of Hironis, and such a heinous act can only be punished by thunderous means, otherwise Hieronis will surely fall into misery!" the clerk recited aloud, and the courtiers of the traditionalist sect below were already in chaos.

However, the matter is not over, and the next paragraph makes the traditionalists panic even more: "In order to keep the country from falling into chaos, there must be a monarch who can take on great responsibilities, and Wechen suggests that the Duke of Amberton immediately ascend to the throne and lead the country and the people to deal with this crisis!"
