Chapter 628: The Gray Curtain of War Spreading All the Way South
While several great men were conducting a series of discussions and analyses.
Brand listened silently, nodding from time to time to express approval and affirmation.
Although he didn't fully understand it, he barely understood it.
The Western Allied Forces will have the most opportunities to make meritorious deeds, and accordingly, they will be the most dangerous.
The central coalition forces are in a moderate position in terms of their chances of meritorious service and their level of danger.
The Eastern Alliance has low risk and low reward, and is suitable for paddling.
Of course, if the strength is strong enough.
No matter which area you choose there are many opportunities to contribute to the war effort.
The choice here is not very important.
But what is more regrettable is:
They are obviously not the kind of noble pioneering army that is strong enough.
If all the legions of the Kaya Empire were divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower, they would only be at the threshold of the upper level.
——Compared with the top legions of the empire, they are still far behind!
After the basic situation analysis is completed.
Several elders also expressed their respective preferences.
Mr. Holander prefers to go west to kill the enemy with the army.
The great master of Mesa is more conservative. He wants to join the army in the middle and be the first to see the endless sea.
The two eldest men in charge of logistics, Romien and Robert, want safety more and want to hang out with the army on the east road!
Claude and Mr. Cecil are wavering among these three armies.
While several elders were discussing, Brand gradually began to think deeply.
This matter should not be put off for long, a decision needs to be made as soon as possible!
If they do not choose to join the Eastern Coalition, then the main force of their legion currently stationed in Spruce Castle needs to move as soon as possible.
Due to the changes in the orcs, the opening up war tends to be advanced. His Majesty the Emperor will soon go north to inspect the military parade.
In addition, the subsequent formation of the coalition should be gradually carried out during His Majesty's inspection. Finish.
This doesn't allow them to delay too much.
——After joining the coalition, it also takes time to get used to the other legions!
"Brand! What do you think?"
While Brand was contemplating, the wavering Master Claude suddenly turned his gaze.
As these words fell, several other elders also focused their attention here.
Feeling the questioning eyes of everyone, Brand couldn't help but look a little confused.
——Is it really okay to ask him about such an important matter?
Seeing that Brand was hesitant, Mr. Cecil on the side said:
“As the leader of the library mage group, your opinion is also crucial.
In addition, there is no need to feel any pressure. No matter what decision we make, we will bear the final outcome together.”
Hearing this, Brand didn't hesitate any longer.
After briefly organizing the language, he said:
“In my opinion, there are many changes during the war, and in the end it may not be what we think.< br>
So should we wait for the commanders of the various coalition forces to be selected before making plans?
If there is a commander we are familiar with, will the war be smoother? "
After hearing Brand talk about the commanders of the various coalition forces, Mr. Claude agreed:
"This is also a good choice direction, but at present, the candidates for the commanders of the various coalition forces have not been completely determined. Right? "
At the end, everyone turned their attention to Mr. Mesa.
——This elder is the clearest among them about the intelligence of the imperial military.
The elder Mesa said while thinking:
"His Majesty the Emperor is indeed not completely sure about this matter.
Of course, everyone has made certain guesses and judgments in advance.
The person with the highest probability and the loudest voice should be mentioned.
That should be Mr. Jonas, the director of the Imperial Military Affairs Department.
It is very likely that he will come to the Northland as the commander of the coalition forces.
In recent days, Mr. Jonas has been replaced by a different person for matters directly related to him.
Many army commanders in the empire believe that this old gentleman should return to the battlefield.
And if he returns to the battlefield, the position of commander-in-chief of the coalition forces will be more than enough! "
Hearing this, Brand's eyes brightened a little.
——"His Uncle Jonas" actually wants to become the commander-in-chief of the coalition?
Although not as good as the always generous sister Sonia!
But Brand also has a certain fondness for this "uncle" who often helps him apply for meritorious service!
Master Romien smiled and said:
“If this old gentleman is going to become the commander-in-chief of the allied forces, I would really like to join him!
Last time we opened up War, this old gentleman is the supreme commander of the Northern Expeditionary Alliance, and his commanding ability is beyond doubt." Immediately after, Mr. Cecil also said:
“Although our noble pioneering army has considerable autonomy in the war.
However, the choice of commander of the coalition forces is indeed a factor that needs to be taken into consideration.
Then we should inquire about the situation of the coalition commander before making a decision?
Although this matter should not be delayed for too long, there is still no problem in a few days.”
Because everyone agreed, the matter was temporarily postponed.
After the meeting, Brand returned to his camp.
At this time, Catherine, Hisari and several library members were chatting in his tent.
Seeing him come back, a member of the library asked curiously:
“Do the gentlemen want to entrust us with anything?”
Hearing this, Brand shook his head and said:
"That's not true. Several great men came to me to discuss the issue of choosing the starting point for the expansion war."
Hearing this , another member of the library said with some confusion:
"The last time we traveled north, the elders did not discuss such important matters with you, the library owner."
Bran De smiled and said:
"We are now a real mage group, and of course our status will be different from before!"
...
After resting for a night in the material warehouse of Spruce Castle.
Everyone followed the previous formation and continued northward with supplies.
This afternoon, the weather was sunny.
We walked to the top of a mountain peak and looked towards the north.
The gray sky at the end of the telescope's field of vision made Brand temporarily stop on the roadside.
Besides, a library member whose eyes flashed with the same magical aura frowned and said:
"Is that the gray screen of war? Is there something wrong with this location? We should not be able to see it in this area. Just get to the border."
Swing the reins and drive the horse forward.
Brand explained:
“According to the intelligence returned from the front line, although the dispersion device produced by our Imperial Arms Department has dispersed the gray screen of war within a certain range.
However, due to the limited effective distance, There is no way to deal with the gray curtain of war at high altitudes.
You must know that the gray curtain of war of the orcs can spread to an altitude of several thousand meters.
The effective range of ordinary dispersing devices can be up to 100 meters. A thousand meters is already pretty good.”
After hearing Brand's words, looking at the gray curtain of war in the northern sky, the library members frowned and said:
"If there are Eagle Men hiding in it, it will be too detrimental to the ordinary legions!"
Brand responded:
“That’s why His Majesty the Emperor held an emergency war meeting before, and various nobles also advanced their schedule to go north.
At the same time, the Imperial Arms Department also There are mages from various mage families who are studying this method of the orcs on the front line
The Foreign Affairs Department is also in contact with the countries in the northern part of the Human Alliance that have experienced the gray curtain of war, hoping to obtain the means and experience to deal with this gray curtain of war.
According to the research results of some mages, war gray curtain is a product of catalysis, refinement and combustion of mixed materials.
They are somewhat similar to volcanic ash from volcanic eruptions, but they are not real substances.
They cover the sky and the earth like dust, but they will not be blown away by the ordinary breeze.
Although they can be dispelled by various elements, it is very difficult to dispel them because they are too large in scale and continuous. ”
At this time, another library member was a little curious and said:
“But I heard that the orcs will maintain better perception in this gray screen of war, right?
Should we start from Let’s start from this angle.
Don’t think about dispelling the gray screen of war, but study how the orcs maintain their perception in the gray screen of war.”
Brand shook his head and said:
"Of course some people have thought of this, but after their research, the reason why the orcs can maintain perception has something to do with themselves.
The gray screen of war is a kind of orcs who have unique characteristics based on their own racial characteristics. A method developed through inheritance.
Some people say that this method is borrowed from the undead clan and can bring about the undead canopy of eternal night..."
After explaining this, look at the sky at the end of the north again. , Brand said:
“When we reach the border, we will also study it!”
