Chapter 676: Knowing the Other

The short meeting was soon over, and it was late at night, and everyone went to rest or go on duty. Led by the guards, Jodah arrived at Edward's former room.

Brigadier General Alain, who was accompanying him, also followed: "What you just said is very good, but those generals are moved." ”

Qiu Da said: "No matter whether you are fighting or doing anything, you must pay attention to attacking the heart. After the Battle of Xiegu, the Seventh Army suffered heavy losses, on the one hand, it was under pressure to disband, and on the other hand, it was worried that other armies would look down on them. Celebrating Edward at this time would naturally increase my favorability in their minds. I have to make them obey me, and I have to use some means, although I have brought a lot of personnel, but they are the backbone of this army, and if they do not cooperate, I, the supreme commander, will be an empty rank. ”

Alan smiled: "That's why I said you played beautifully." I had been worried that they would be too disgusted with you, not only because of your age, but also because of your rank and seniority, and it was really not appropriate to be their commander. ”

Jodah said: "Don't talk about them, even under General Ruhr's account, there are people who are very dissatisfied with my appointment as the commander of the Seventh Army, and I have long been mentally prepared for this." But that's not enough, just moving these old officers is not enough for me to take control of this army, to convince them......"

Seeing him pondering, Alain asked, "Do you have any ideas? I heard you say at the meeting that you don't value Gness very much, do you want to start with him?"

Jodah pointed at him and smiled: "It's worthy of our good brother for so many years." ”

Alain smiled: "It's easy to guess, the most direct way to gain the trust of this army is to avenge General Edward." It's just that...... I just can't think of what to do. Do you have a jihua?"

Jodah walked to the desk and sat down, turned the pen on the table, and said: "Gunnis is a man who is generous on the outside and jealous on the inside, tolerant and generous on the surface, but in fact he is jealous in his heart, and he can't tolerate the merits of others that are better than him. Not to mention the others, even the other two people of the 'True Martial Three Cavalry Generals', he can't tolerate them to be more beautiful than himself, which is why I look down on him. ”

Alan said incredulously: "He is actually such a person?"

The one who knows himself best must not be his friends, but his enemies.

Jodah smiled slightly: "I have carefully studied his resume, not only him, before coming here, I have already learned the detailed information of every general of the enemy army. Gunnis actually became famous very early, as early as the age of 23, he took the lead in inciting villagers to rebel and become famous. ”

"Rebellion! He's so bold. But how could he be in the army of the Holy Bektian Empire? Shouldn't such a serious matter be executed according to the practice of St. Beakia?" Alain wondered.

Jodah said: "At that time, the new king of St. Vickya had just succeeded to the throne, and the political landscape of the whole country would be cleansed. Gness, who was also a politically astute man, saw the moment to incite a popular rebellion against the other princes the new king was trying to get rid of. The new king was thus given the opportunity to eradicate dissidents, so that instead of being punished in this matter, he was appointed. ”

"He's a very smart man. ”

Jodah said: "He is a smart man, and smart people will always be ostracized by others. ”

Alain smiled, "Are you talking about yourself?"

Jodah ignored him, and continued, "And he has a big problem, he is too arrogant to know how to restrain, so it didn't take long for him to be forced out of Sindmore." He became a mercenary, and as he grew in strength, he rejoined the army of St. Vicia. ”

"Later, his knight seal was unsealed, and he became an awakened knight, and was once again reused by the St. Vic Adam military, and he also had the nickname 'Burning Ghost'. The latter words were added by Alain for him.

"That's right. Jodah said: "He knew that with his position at that time, he was no match for those who had suppressed him, so after he was reused, he pretended to be ignorant of his previous suspicions, but instead made friends with those people, not only managed to survive among these people, but also eliminated their guards, and slowly understood the weaknesses of those people." ”

Alan said: "This person's scheming is really heavy." He must have recuperated during that time, accumulated his strength and status, and when the time came, he would retaliate. ”,

"You're right. Jodah said: "So none of those who have offended him have ended well." ”

Alan said, "Have you figured out how to deal with him?"

Joda said: "He is mean and suspicious, suspicious and sick, and often suppresses the credit of his subordinates for himself." ”

Alain's eyes lit up and he said, "You mean separation, what's the best way?"

Jodah smiled and said, "I haven't thought about it yet, but as soon as I come here, the solution will be delivered to me." ”

After waiting all night, they didn't wait for the enemy's big attack, maybe it was Bimoyer's visit to the camp, which made them feel that Jihua was exposed and gave up, or maybe there was no Jihua at all. In short, there was nothing to do all night, which is the happiest thing for everyone.

Bimoyer waited with everyone all night and also chatted with Sert all night, and everyone was a little tired. Actually, he doesn't talk much, more often he just listens to them, and as a friend, he's better suited to be a listener, and it's good enough to be able to make him listen.

The day is getting brighter, and the fire that has risen in the night is gradually cooling. Irina rubbed her face that was frozen by the cold and said, "A safe night, it's time to change shifts." ”

Ursula said: "The other side also knows that we have a new source of soldiers, so they don't dare to implement the original jihua." ”

Not all of the 12,000 new soldiers were stationed in the city, and a significant number were camped in the mountains to the west.

Not only did the enemy not attack in a big way that night, but the number of attacks and harassment also decreased, and not only did the number of raids and harassment decrease, but the outpost in front of the city in the early morning also found that the enemy camp was moving back. After all, the distance of four kilometers is too close, and now the forces of both sides will be uneasy regardless of which side they are.

"Captain Sain. ”

"Captain, why did you get up early and don't sleep for a while?"

Sain tugged at the cloak tied at his collar and smiled, "It's rare to get a better night's sleep, but I feel a little uncomfortable." Didn't the enemy come last night?"

"I came, but I left again quickly, and there was no big noise. A soldier said.

Sein said, "Okay, okay, you guys go to breakfast, it's time for the change of guard." ”

Breakfast is optional, but there are not many variety, this is a barracks canteen, not a restaurant, but it is also the same as a restaurant, in addition to formal meals, if you want to eat more, you have to pay for it.

Bimoyer took a blueberry pancake and a glass of milk, and everyone else took their own and squatted on the rocks behind the barracks to eat.

Sein didn't know when he came here, peeled a fruit candy and put it in his mouth and asked, "Hey, your injuries are okay?" ”

Irina knew that he was talking about the wounds left by the whipping, and shook her head and said, "With the medicine, it doesn't hurt much." ”

Sein sighed, also squatted on the stone, and said, "You guys, don't report such a big thing as visiting the enemy camp at night." Do you know that if you leave like this without saying anything, it is easy for the barracks to think of you as deserters. ”

"Are we deserters?" Irina said unconvinced, "Why are we deserters?" ”

"Of course I'm not saying that you are deserters, but you have to do everything according to the discipline of the barracks," said Sain. Okay, I'm not arguing with you, how are your friend's injuries?"

"I'm still lying in the ward, I think it's better. Irina said.

Jodah washed up and went to the conference room to see Langdon and asked, "Have you done all the information you talked about last night?"

Langdon said: "The general situation has been reported to the main camp with the Tongyi Stone, and the suspected enemy troop deployment map has also been sent to be identified overnight." ”

Judah said: "What about the traitor?"

Langdon said: "This matter was not reported, I wrote in a letter asking the soldier who delivered the letter to hand it over to General Ruhr in person. ”

Jodah nodded, "Good." ”

Langdon said, "After breakfast in a while, I will accompany you to inspect the situation in each camp." ”

"There's no hurry. Jodah said, "I have something I want you to do before this." ”

"What's the matter, General, you say. ”

Jodah said: "I have written a letter to ask you to send a messenger to the enemy camp on the other side and hand it over to their current supreme commander. ”

Langdon said, "According to the report, Gunnis is not in the barracks across the street right now." ”

Jodah shook his head and said, "It's not Gunnis, it's for Allen." I have already written the letter, and it is best to send it this morning. ”

Langdon took the letter and asked, "Do you know this Ellen?"

"I don't know. Jodah smiled, "But we met soon." ”
