Chapter 629 Choice


Chapter 629 Choice

Walk through the wind and snow, gradually approaching Spruce Castle in the northeast.

Originally Brand was looking forward to meeting orcs on the road to relieve their boredom on the road.

But what happened to Brand’s surprise was:

I didn’t even see any beasts along the way, let alone orcs!

Starting from the second day after leaving Cedar Fort, the marching road became somewhat lively.

After half a day of rushing down, they met many teams who were also on their way.

Standing in a wide field of vision and looking from a distance, they saw many teams marching along the surrounding roads.

——The legions in the north are making large-scale troop mobilization!

Obviously, this should have something to do with His Majesty the Emperor's northern military parade and subsequent attack plan.

At noon that day, under the sunshine, Brand and his team followed a floating river all the way to a medium-sized fortress called Hanhe Fort in the eastern part of the border.

After entering the fortress, ride a war horse slowly on the streets inside the fortress.

Brand glanced around curiously.

The last time I came to the Northern Territory, in addition to legionnaires, there were many merchants and adventurers looking for opportunities inside the fortresses in the Northern Territory.

He even found Behemoth Skin in the market run by these people!

However, this time heading north, Brand rarely saw merchants and adventurers when passing various fortresses.

While he was thinking about it, Mr. Romien said:

“Since the orcs moved, the fortresses in the north have entered a state of war and martial law.
< br>Because the war is about to begin, most of the adventurers and merchants have left early.

Only a small number of chambers of commerce and adventurers who have cooperative relations with us are still stationed in the fortress in the north.

Therefore, the streets of these fortresses are relatively deserted. "

Hearing this, Brand asked:

"The martial law in domestic cities should have started, right? "

Master Romien nodded and said:

"Yes, in the past few days, the nobles in the country are successively issuing martial law orders to the cities and towns in their territories.

Many commercial activities that might interfere with the war effort were ordered to cease.

So it’s not just these fortresses in the north.

Other cities in the country are also much deserted than in the past.

Next, we should quickly fade out of the sight of other countries in the Human Alliance until the end of the war..."

After chatting all the way, we arrived at the garrison and had lunch.


Mr. Mesa summoned everyone and told an important news:

“The specific appointments of the commanders of the various coalition forces will be made public this afternoon, but I received the news in advance!
< br>At the beginning of the war, His Majesty the Emperor will advance northward from the west of the border.

Marquis Franco will lead the central coalition.

And Old Jonas. Mr. is in command of the Eastern Allied Forces

Currently, the scheduling and deployment of the Imperial Legion has been carried out in advance.

In order not to waste time, we also need to choose the starting point of the Northern Expedition as soon as possible! "

After hearing such news, Mr. Holland raised his eyebrows slightly and said:

"I didn't expect that His Majesty the Emperor would let Marquis Franco serve as the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces.

Although this gentleman has very rich leadership experience, the Franco family can be regarded as being promoted by the royal family and has many friends in the empire.

However, the coalition forces in the middle have the best chance of reaching the Endless Sea first.

I originally thought His Majesty the Emperor would go into battle in person. "

Master Mesa explained:

"His Majesty the Emperor should not care about such trivial matters.

And this is only the arrangement for the early stage of the war. No one knows what the situation will be like in the middle and late stages of the war.

In addition, according to our original guess, the probability of Marquis Franco becoming the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces is not high.

So I think that in order to obtain the position of commander of the central coalition forces, he should have paid a certain price and commitment. His Majesty the Emperor should have made the decision based on the consideration that this choice would make the war go more smoothly. "

After Mr. Mesa finished speaking, Mr. Romien began to express his personal opinions:

"Our Romien family and the Franco family have a relationship. Some business dealings, but the relationship is average.

If I don't consider anything else and only make a choice among the three coalition commanders, I would be more inclined to choose His Majesty the Emperor or Mr. Jonas.

Combined with the previous decision, I am more inclined to keep the original plan, use the east as the starting point of the Northern Expedition, and join Mr. Jonas's command. "

After Mr. Romien finished speaking, Mr. Robert said:

"The Robert family and the Franco family have nothing to do with each other.

If I were asked to make a choice, comparing the three, I would prefer Mr. Jonas from the east. ”

After a brief thought, Mr. Holland said:

"As before, I am still more inclined to go to the western region and follow His Majesty the Emperor."

Following closely, it is Mr. Mesa:

“I think the risk in the west is too great. Between the central and the east, I still prefer the central region.

Whether our Mesa family is with Franco The Marquis or Mr. Jonas have many friendships.

However, in such a high-stakes war, they will certainly not be able to give us too many biases.

So I still stick to my previous position:

It is more appropriate for us, who have the right to act independently, to operate in the central region! "

Then, the elders who had expressed their opinions turned their attention to the remaining three people who had not yet expressed their opinions.

Mr. Claude first spoke hesitantly:

"Our Claude family, Marquis Franco, and Lord Jonas are not very familiar with each other, and the situation with His Majesty the Emperor is similar.

If you don't look at the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces...

Forget it, I still listen to you, I abstain!"

In the end, Mr. Claude decided to give up.

Leave the stage to Mr. Cecil and Brand.

Mr. Cecil, who frowned slightly in front of everyone's gaze, suddenly turned to Brand and asked:

"Brand, what do you think?"

Looked at Cecil in surprise. After Mr. Er took a glance, Brand faced everyone and slowly said:

“I still feel that there are too many variables in war.

From a long-term perspective, It would be better for us to choose a coalition commander that more of us are familiar with.

So I tend to go east and follow Uncle Jonas. "

After hearing this, after pondering for a moment, Mr. Cecil said:

"I agree with Brand's point of view, although the strength of our legion is barely at the level of Many legions are in the upper echelons.

But since it’s a war, it’s better to be on the safe side!

All the information we have is only about the early stages of the war.

We don’t know exactly how the situation will develop in the middle and later stages of the war! "

As Mr. Cecil finished speaking, Mr. Romien smiled and said:

"Now that everyone has their own choices, we can also make a decision. Already? "

The elder Mesa spread his hands and said:

"Let the east be the east. It just so happens that our regiment in Spruce Castle is too lazy to move, which saves a lot of energy! ”

Mr. Holland also nodded helplessly and said:

“It’s not a bad thing to be safe!

If it doesn’t work, we will communicate with Mr. Jonas in the middle and later stages.

Try to represent the eastern coalition and join the general offensive in other regions.”
