After that, the Red Fortress never made any big waves. The destruction of the private army of the Mobis family no doubt sounded the alarm for other nobles, forcing them to put down their original high posture, and just staying in their camps all day long, and no longer provoke anything. It made Celtic a lot easier.

The only dissonance was that after that, the royal family sent an investigation team to come here to investigate the private army of the Mobis family. However, although this investigation team came from the royal government, it was obviously not taken seriously. Celtic just greeted them very officially, and then told them that if there were any problems, they could go to their subordinates to investigate, and then they no longer cooperated with the investigation team under the pretext of busy fortress affairs, and they hid far away. .

Although Celtic's actions made the members of the investigation team very dissatisfied, they were also very clear, so they just stopped complaining after a few complaints. After all, this is a military fortress, not a palace. Even if there is a royal secret, they have no way to take General Celtic.

Therefore, the members of the investigation team quickly shifted their goals and began to lock Youlian. Although it is said that he has strong strength, he is a royal aristocrat after all, and should give the royal family more face than the military. But when they found the station of Yulian and others, the defendant actually left temporarily a few days ago, saying that he was going to go outside to relax, as to when-then only God knows.

It's really not a one-off thing.

The setbacks encountered by the connection made the members of the investigation team cry a little, the superior refused to cooperate, and the main leader was not there. How should this investigation be carried out? Forget it, even if they can't find the right one, they are really worried about how to investigate a goal with knight strength if they talk to Youlian. Now that I'm not here, let's just talk about witnesses. Anyway, when the private soldiers of the Mobis family were annihilated, the other nobles were also nearby. Anyway, what valuable information could they provide?

However, what disappointed everyone was that the other nobles obviously did not cooperate with them. Of course, they also knew that their identity was not comparable to that of General Celtic, and their strength was not comparable to Yulian. These two can put royal pigeons, but they can't. But this does not mean that everyone will cooperate with them in their investigation. You should know that although the investigation does not cooperate with the investigation of the Mobis family, if you cooperate with the investigation, no one can guarantee that there will be a dragon breath on their own. On his head, he was as dead as the unlucky worms of the Mobis family. Although the Mobius family is huge, it is also a great threat. But the threat is at least far away, and this one is near.

How to choose is simply too simple.

The aristocratic coalition was originally divided into three factions. After the Mobius faction was wiped out by Yulian, the remaining two factions were considered to have no enemies. Like the Bird family, they were not much like the Mobius family. On the right, facing the investigation team is naturally yin and yang, it's good to say nothing but bad, all day long, everything is provoked by the Mobius family. Although the other party has issued a warning, but the young master does not live or die. The result was that the face was torn and the scourge of death was incurred-anyway, the person is already dead, and it is impossible to stand up.

The other faction is also unclear, either answering the question or not speaking at all. He was forced to hurry and even turned his face on the spot. Anyway, they were originally sent by the family to die, and there were not many people who were dissatisfied with their family. If they can make things worse, and make their families follow bad luck, then these people are not dead if they die.

As a result, the poor investigative team immediately fell into a dilemma, but another thing that happened shortly afterwards caused everyone to abandon this small problem immediately.

Autumn Flower Frost Star Moon, 5th.

The second day after the provisional armistice agreement expired, the Sith Empire finally launched an attack on King Orlut. After three days of perseverance, the king city surrendered. King Oluth and Queen chose to commit suicide. Under them, all the nobles of the palace were executed by the Sith Empire. From this day, the country of Orutt has officially become a part of the history books of all countries on the entire continent that will always stagnate and will not change.

However, what happened subsequently shocked all countries on the mainland.

Because after the fall of the king city, the Sith Empire did not order the local stationed troops to manage the occupied area as usual. On the contrary, they sent the army inside the kingdom for the first time to replace it, and carried out the management of the entire king city. A considerable degree of rectification. This is not surprising, after all, this victory is a real sign that the Kingdom of Orlut has been annexed by the Sith, so it will change a bit after all. However, the next move surprised everyone.

That was the army of "Puppet Master" Sidwig and "Windbringer" Karan, who were originally responsible for the security of the occupied area and belonged to one of the four generals of the Sith Empire. They actually directly pressed the border of the West Kingdom , And set up an attack formation!

Did they actually want to attack West?

As soon as this news came out, the entire continent was shocked.

It is no wonder that although the Sith Empire is indeed strong, but their original land area and population are not very strong, and the land of the Kingdom of Orlut is much larger than them. The original attack of the Sith Empire has been compared to Swallow big. Many countries believe that, even if Orut was completely annexed, it would take years for the Sith Empire to fully digest each other. This is why the previous nations were worried about the Sith Empire, but they did not regard it as a particular threat. After all, time is a favorable ally, and current events can change. But now, just a few days later, they can't wait to launch an attack?

If it is an ordinary country, then this behavior can be described as stupid. But after all, the other party was the Sith Empire, so this time the entire continent was tense. Many eyes stared at the border between the two countries, waiting for the next action of the Sith Empire.

What does it mean if the Sith Empire really went to war?

No one knows.

However, this is meaningless to everyone in the Red Fort.

"Today is the fifteenth day."

General Celtic fiddled with the burning wood in the lower fireplace, looking serious and gloomy.

"The army of the Sith Empire still stayed on the border. According to our information, Sidwig and Karan remained in their base camp. They didn't appear. It's really troublesome. Now we can only rely on ourselves... to continue to defend. It’s not a good idea."

Speaking here, Celtic sighed for a long time, then looked at the crowd in front of him. Right now, the conference room of Noda was full of people. In addition to the commander under Celtic, Yulian took his Subordinates attended together. Celtic's previous gaze was aimed at Youlian.

"What do you think?"

"They are busy."

However, Yulian’s first sentence left everyone in shock.

"The power of the talented knights is that they can enter their best state all the time, so for the Sith Empire, they can attack on any day, and until then, they can wait like this, that is, Say, we must maintain a high degree of vigilance at all times. But for the other party, what they have to wait for may be just an order. So the situation in front of us is very unfavorable to us...After all, the initiative is not in our hands. in."

"The purpose of the Sith Empire is unknown."

O'Fallar also participated in this pre-war meeting as the secretary of the curtain. At this moment, she has also let go a lot. After all, as a former princess, she often speaks in front of others. Although these are soldiers, for O'Falir, there is nothing to be concerned about.

"Although it is not ruled out that they are likely to exert pressure on us by this means, from the perspective of the previous Sith empire, the problem is likely to be more complicated. I think they may be forced by a two-pronged strategy We cannot act on our own. We cannot even fight back."

"Miss, what do you mean by this sentence?"

Hearing this, an officer asked with some doubt.

"The situation is so clear right now. The opponent came over. We naturally have to fight back. If we can't fight back, wouldn't it mean we surrendered completely?"

"However, things are not that simple."

O'Falil smiled slightly.

"I think that war is not just war. In fact, war is a means of serving politics. Although it may be difficult for the frontline soldiers to accept, sometimes, your victory on the battlefield is instead Will become a failure in the political field. Sometimes, the necessary failures will become a good bargaining chip in the political field. Indeed, in the foreseeable future, the Sith Empire may challenge us through a certain situation, but At the same time, they will also declare the legitimacy of their actions to countries on other continents. After all, the Sith Empire has not officially declared war with our country up to its present position, even if we have had several conflicts on the border , But if viewed from the diplomatic standpoint of countries, it will also be described as a little friction, and once our victory is far beyond expectations, or the loss of the other party reaches a certain level. Then they can bite us back For us, it can be said that it is a defensive victory. But for them, it can be accused of attacking them. The same thing, as long as you change the angle, it is a completely different point of view."

Speaking here, O'Falil stopped for a moment, waiting for everyone to digest her story before speaking again.

"And the Kingdom of West is definitely not willing to go to war. So, once the Sith empire through diplomatic channels implies that the royal family is not indispensable, then they will hesitate, and over time, it will affect the fortress Because at that time, the royal family will issue an order to tell General Celtic not to act rashly, or even to strictly enforce their actions by military law. In this way, the other party will achieve their purpose. We have no way to be free. Attack, but the other party can randomly choose the appropriate time to launch the attack. This is naturally very unfavorable to us."

"Little girl, although what you said makes sense..."

Some of the old officers who experienced a lot of storms nodded slightly to understand O'Fallier's words, and although some people still think that this girl is too alarmist, after all, she was able to attend this military meeting, which means she got Kyle Special General admits that they can distrust O'Falriel, but they will not distrust their general's judgment.

"But is it really as complicated as you said? The situation in front of you is very clear. The opponent's army is under pressure, not for invasion, is it for the exercise to fail? We have so many eyes watching here, can we still have fakes?"

"For those who make judgments, what we see cannot be the truth they need. And the truth they need may not be what we can see."

Hearing this, General Celtic nodded slightly. I looked at O'Falriel comfortably, but I did not expect that Her Royal Highness was so keenly aware of the political situation. Of course, Celtic also knew why O'Falir made such a judgment-after all, she His Majesty the King is so familiar. It is not surprising that his character, his flaws, would make such a decision. From the beginning, Celtic has seen that under the strong stance of His Majesty the King is hiding extreme self-confidence. His strong command and demanded tone, not only does not have the kind that the king should have The calmness of "everything is under control" is a bit boring. Especially through the announcement afterwards, calling the noble coalition forces can see that this majesty is like a gambler. It seems that the more he presses, the greater the chance of victory. I don't care if I have a good card or a bad card. This is precisely the performance of extreme self-confidence. And like this, once he was pressed by the external forces of the Sith Empire, it would be hard to say what it would look like.

But... it's a pity.

Thinking of this, Celtic glanced at O'Falriel again and sighed secretly. You know, he has always expected this girl to become the manager of West. If she is allowed to take the throne, West will definitely become stronger than before. If it is her, face I am afraid that the situation in front of me will not make the whole kingdom so passive... But everything is completely lost due to the death of this girl. Eventually, her brother became king, but, obviously, he did not have enough to control the country. However, he had ambitions that even the first king had never had...

Celtic shook his head, discarding the uneasiness in his heart. But he didn't expect that Yulian on the side looked at his expression completely.

"So, what we're going to talk about next is the issue of defense. Whether or not, as Miss O'Falil said, some small-scale conflicts are inevitable."

Celtic said.

"Front defense is not a problem, but the red fortress can only prevent the main entrance, but there is no way for the small holes in the wall. In addition to using the terrain of the river valley for protection, we also need to carry out some personnel. Mobilize.

Hearing this, Yulian nodded secretly. Many countries have encountered such narrow borders. Of course, in Yulian’s time, his country could defend its foreign enemies by building that great and terrifying city wall, but for the country on this continent, But there is very little such courage. Therefore, the borders between various countries are generally replaced by various natural risks. For example, rolling hills, narrow river valleys, and uninhabited swamps are not suitable for humans to browse and advance terrain. The fortresses are mostly built on the edge of these borders, guarding the traffic routes here. In this way, if the other party wants to read through those natural dangers and sneak into the country, it will pay a painful price, and may even be wiped out by the whole army. However, if you capture the fortress, it is a flat horse, whether it is to convey combat power or supplies will be very convenient. So even if they knew that the fortress was an object that was not easy to provoke, they had to bluntly rush up.

Of course, the large unit cannot be stolen, which does not mean that the small unit can't. Especially in the immediate situation, both sides pay great attention to each other's military movements. Any large-scale personnel adjustments will definitely arouse the other's vigilance, but small-scale attacks are different. Once the opponent's elite troops can sneak into the country, then they can start fooling around in the rear, annoying people. It is more likely to contain the defense of the fortress ahead. In history, there have been a few examples of the complete fall of the fortified fortress because the enemy forces were attacked by the rear.

Now, what Celtic wants to arrange is precisely the targeted defense against these "national mouse holes". This is far more difficult than dealing with those one-eyed monsters. After all, those guys have no energy, although they have strength. The effort will be resolved. But this is different. Most of the people who can take on such important tasks are elite troops in the enemy's country. Whether in terms of strength or strategy, I am afraid they are very difficult. Therefore, in the face of such a situation, it is no longer possible to deal with one-eyed monsters just by shrinking defense and strengthening the guard force.

This is why Celtic held this military meeting.

"First of all, the main force must always stay in the fortress. From today, go to see your group of soldiers and children, let them take turns to rest, to maintain the best fighting state at any time!"

Speaking of this, Celtic patted the table and then pointed at the military map in front of him.

"The first team, you are responsible for defending the three zones, remember, be sure to defend!"

"Yes, lord!"

"The fifth team, you are responsible for defending the ninth zone with the twelfth team. If there is any change in the army of the Sith Empire, report it to me immediately!"

"Yes, lord!"

"As for the fifteenth team..."

Celtic gave orders step by step, and began to fill in the loopholes on the border. As the commander here, he certainly knew what was deadly and where to relax. Therefore, in the adjustment of personnel, this old general is very handy. However, at the end of the order, Celtic faced Yulian and made a decision that everyone did not expect.

"Mr. Youlian, I need you and your subordinates to protect the right wing of the stronghold......... Do you have any questions?"

As soon as this statement came out, almost all the officers changed their looks. (To be continued, if you want to know the future, please visit www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!)
