Chapter two hundred and ninety fourth I don't know
Chapter 294 I don't know
"The news I just got." Beller added.
"What about the specific force?" Parry asked.
"There is no relevant news," replied Beller. "It should be that our border lords have little vision and cannot tell how many enemies there are. However, since their castles are surrounded by enemies and attacked, the enemy's troops will not be less than thousands in any case."
"Thousands...if there are six castles..."
"According to the siege of 3,000 troops per castle, then at least 20,000 troops." Berel replied. "In addition, the losses in the attack on Gaohua City before - according to the battle reports from the city, the Chaos Legion lost at least 10,000 people in the siege battle... In addition, we estimate that there may be 30,000 or 40,000 Chaos Legion under Gaohua City - and there are still such people still entrenched in the base camp... All the numbers add up, just about the conclusion that the total strength of the invading Chaos Legion was 70,000,000 in total."
"If you look at it in this way, this time it should not be a trap such as luring the enemy into the depths and besieging the city to attack aid, but the actions taken by the Chaos Legion because of its arrogance." Berel said. "However, it is hard to say whether it is right or wrong."
Beller's analysis is reasonable, but it cannot completely convince Pari.
"Didn't it mean that I had received a steady stream of reinforcements before?"
"Oh, this is hard to say." Berel replied. "But if it is a small reinforcement, the supplementary effect it can play is very limited."
He did not discuss the digital issues with Pari in detail, but just spoke in a very calm and rational tone. It can be judged from his tone alone that Beller had no interest in arguing with Pari at all. If Pari continued to question this issue, Beller would definitely deal with it with words like "ah", "oh", "maybe", etc. But it is precisely because of this that he became the kind of opponent who was completely inconsistent - he would not care what you said at all, but just pretended that he had not heard it.
"General Asu Ruffat," Pari felt that Berel was like a swordsman facing a wall and was completely unable to exert his power, so he simply turned to face Asu Ruffat. "I think the risk is too great."
Ashu Rufate didn't speak, but just looked at each other calmly. Pari was eager to pour out all the concerns and ideas in his heart, but for some reason he found that he couldn't say more. It seemed that this idea was not supported by any logic or objective facts.
He vaguely remembered that he thought of this before falling asleep last night, and at that time he thought about the causes and consequences, risks and benefits clearly, so he decided to come to see Ash Rufate the next day. But for some reason, that clear idea suddenly disappeared from his mind.
However, this did not arouse his particular suspicion. In fact, humans often have this situation: everyone has the experience of putting things casually and then spending a lot of effort but unable to find them back.
Speaking of which, before he knew it, the most unpresented Baranka also came. In fact, after Ashu Rufate took office, the former mercenary captain obediently handed over all power. Pari originally planned to win over Belal and stir up the previous conflict between Baranka and Ashu Rufate. However, all these plans disappeared with Baranka's voluntary surrender. Because even though he received Behu Rufate's unlimited support, his strength balance was still inferior to the other party - Besides, how could a person like Belure be easily won over and bought?
However, Baranka himself had personally seen the relationship between Ashu Rufate and the Little Queen - in fact, he clearly saw the changes in the entire domestic political situation. It was precisely because he had experienced everything himself that he had no contempt or confrontation to the thirteen-year-old young queen. And he knew very well what kind of special position Ahu Rufate occupied in the Little Queen's heart. Because of this, he was also respectful to Ashu Rufate and had no evil intentions at all.
After Asu Ruffat took office, Balanka felt at ease to be the deputy general. He also knew very well that as long as he could defeat the Chaos Legion this time, with his position in the new palace of the Little Queen and with Asu Ruffat's east wind, he might be able to get a coveted position.
"The scout of the Chaos Legion... controlled the entire area." Baranka supported Parri's opinion this time. "On the surface we had a chance, but in fact this chance is very small."
In the past, Pari has repeatedly retorted to Baranka, but this time he can't help but have some favors towards this "old mercenary".
"And, we should consider a possibility," Baranka obviously had not eaten breakfast. His eyes swept the table, but found that there was nothing to eat. On the dining table next to it, the only food that could be eaten was a bottle of wine - even if this bottle of wine was well sealed. "The information received by Lord Beral... were sent to the Eagle City by the magic messaging scroll. These messages may not be true."
"It may not be true?" This time, Belar was pondering. "The magic communication... is indeed a great possibility of impersonation..."
This is also the biggest weakness of magic communication, especially using communication scrolls. The content of the letter is transmitted by magic, so it is impossible to verify the authenticity through handwriting, signatures, seals, etc. If you can steal the agreed code, then sending the fake information is easy. Of course, stealing the agreed code is a very difficult thing in itself, and in most cases it is impossible.
However, considering that the influence of the Chaos Legion this time was extraordinary. Not to mention, in the city of Eagle City, Groney and under the nose of the church, the Chaos Legion also performed a performance of "assassinating foreign envoys" (i.e. Berel), and then staged a more thrilling "assassination of the Queen", which was amazing. To say that the Chaos believers actually did not do bad things in these two things, they were just a little bit away, and they were going to succeed.
It would be reasonable to say that the Chaos believers infiltrated the border lord and got the agreed code or something. Baranka's concerns are not groundless.
Asu Ruffat and Beral were both thinking about Baranka's words carefully, while Baranka continued to look for something to eat.
"General, have you not had breakfast yet?" Baranka finally came to the correct conclusion. The title of "General" was invented by Beral. Beral either called Ashu Rufate "His Earl" or called him "General". Speaking of which, this title may be a little ironic, but Ashu Rufate is not disgusted.
"Well, I have a bad appetite recently." Ash Rufate replied.
Baranka's eyes stopped on Ashu Rufat for a moment-he didn't think too much, so he just asked casually. "Are the servants lazy?"
According to the rules of the nobles, even if the owner does not want to eat, the food must be prepared. This is a two-way deal: if the owner suddenly has appetite, it is natural to say; if the owner has no appetite at all, then the food will certainly not be wasted, and they will enter the servant's stomach.
However, this place is the city of Neustria, not Ashu Rufate's own house. The servants here are actually Rafa's servants. And fools can see that Pari is not interested in Ashu Rufate. This is why Baranka thought of this idea.
"No, I warned them that I would go to the officer's cafeteria for dinner." Ashrufat said. The cafeteria came and went, and changed into a set of ordinary clothes. Being low-key, it would be difficult for others to recognize him as the supreme commander. This is also the reason he had thought of a long time ago - it would be better not to let people know if he didn't need to eat.
"What a pity," said Baranka.
If someone else was present, you might think the scene was a bit weird. On this seemingly calm morning, without any meeting arrangements, the four generals of the coalition forces suddenly gathered here. And they really didn't have an agreement.
This can only say that the atmosphere in the city of Niustria is already very strong. From the senior officers to the soldiers at the bottom, they all feel the shadow of war getting closer and closer.
...
Sagas sat in front of the dressing mirror, humming a song while combing her hair. She was not wearing clothes - it was meaningless, because she was really the only one in the room.
A slight magical fluctuation came from a corner of the room. Sagas didn't need to look back to know what was going on-the Tsengchi's wizard came again to supervise. Although it was a good thing to be able to keep in touch with others, Tsengchi's wizard must have had some plans - they could not be so attentive without any reason.
In the mirror, a phantom emitting a pathological green light appeared clearly.
"You shouldn't sing such a song." Marvin said in a tone that seemed to be sighing. "Those who are interested will notice it. Your identity will be exposed... This tune... People in this country... These southerners do not have this tune."
"First, I'm the only one in the room," Sagas replied calmly without even looking back. "Second, you can expose my identity more than my song."
"How is it?"
Tsengchi's wizard looked anxious. If Sagas was only 70% or 80% sure before, then she could now believe that Tsengchi's believers had other plans. And it should be a big conspiracy. Perhaps the entire Chaos Legion, commanded by the Blood Tooth Lord, was already included in this conspiracy.
"I find a way to get Parry to object. Now there is only so much I can do. As for success or not, I don't know." Sagas replied. She admired her flawless body in the mirror and posed several poses.
