Yanxing and Hippel rode back to Eden's manor and trained the road repair team until the evening.
When the two returned to the city master's house, count Theodore called Yanxing alone.
In a heavily guarded closed room, the brazier on the wall lights up a map in the middle of the table.
"This should be the topographic map of the windy highland." Yanxing guessed and asked count Theodore, "there is the battle and defense arrangement of the windy highland army on it, which doesn't seem to be what I should see."
When Yanxing saw the signs of many military units on the map, he turned his head to one side.
At the same time, let blow blow save the copy of the map.
Eternal leader now has a detailed map of the windy highland. I don't need to test my soul painting skills.
Count Theodore summoned a magic light and let it float on the map.
Then he said to Yanxing, "I'm afraid it's no secret that this map is on the windy highland. Maybe the map on our enemy's table is more detailed than mine."
Then you can see it.
Yan Xing turned his head and stared at the map and asked count Theodore, "mentor, you let me see this map. Is there anything I can do?"
"Remember the mercenaries you sent who colluded with the orcs to attack your territory?"
Yan Xing replied, "of course, I handed them over to miss Hippel myself."
"They are all dead." count Theodore said slowly and observed Yanxing's reaction.
Yan Xing sighed and said, "it's good to die."
There are some things we can't find out about the current situation of gale highland.
At present, if the foreign enemy is singled out, it may cause great internal shock.
This kind of thing can only be investigated secretly.
"Yes, dead or dead, their crimes deserve to die." count Theodore turned his eyes to the map on the table: "but the defensive loopholes in the north of newtower can't be ignored."
Yanxing looked at the map.
Between thunder swamp and newtower city is a large grassland no man's land. The southwest border of thunder swamp extends to the west, scattered with fortresses built by the Terran stormy highland Legion.
On the side near the grassland no man's land, the fortress group is densely built. In addition, in the middle of the fortress group, there is a military city - split mountain fortress, which connects the whole defense system to guard the northwest area of newta city and prevent orcs and elves from infiltrating newta city.
The orc heads and mercenaries brought by Yan Xing show that there are loopholes in this barrier, and it is not small.
"I don't want to participate in your struggle. This is the position of thunder swamp."
The little body of eternal collar is not qualified to participate.
For count Theodore, he hoped that the thunder swamp would help him defend the north, but he did not want to drag the swamp people into this dispute and increase unnecessary variables.
But this loophole does exist.
"In fact, I knew that some of us colluded with orcs and elves, and even suspected that man. But that man would never expose newtower to the enemy's soldiers..." count Theodore paused here and then said: "I've been studying the northwest barrier of newtower city since I knew that the orcs attacked your eternal territory. A quarter of the fortress must ignore the penetration of the orcs in order to make 300 wolf cavalry appear silently near your eternal territory.
In the worst case, there are important personnel in cracked mountain castle.
According to the information I just investigated, the mercenary leader you mentioned, yallin, once served in the cracked mountain castle. "
This is really not good news. The same is true for Yanxing.
If you are an orc or Elf commander, once the war starts, you will send troops to infiltrate through these loopholes and disturb the logistics base of the stormy highland army.
If you were a little bolder to attack and seize the castle, Newtown would become a front line from the rear.
If this happens, will orcs and elves ignore the eternal collar?
Definitely not!
Yanxing sent Gustav's head to chief xiaolia.
Even without this resentment, the orc elf coalition will not allow a friendly territory of Newtown to exist behind them when they attack Newtown.
Yanxing didn't expect the war to be so close to him.
He asked Marquis Theodore, "is there any way to seal the loophole?"
Count Theodore shook his head: "only a small number of people collude with the enemy. If we conduct a large-scale investigation, it will certainly affect the morale. If rumors spread again, it will cause mistrust among the troops.
The war was lost without fighting.
Traitors can only be investigated secretly, but our time is too short... And we may not have results. "
Count Theodore not only sighed.
External enemies are strong, so are internal enemies.
Yanxing felt that count Theodore must have thought of a way to call himself. He asked, "is there any way for the tutor?"
Count Theodore asked Yanxing, "how confident are you that you will win gall in the road construction competition tomorrow?"
Yanxing knew the process of the road repair team of the Golden Oak chamber of commerce through Eden.
"As long as garh doesn't use earth magicians to build roads, we have no suspense about winning him."
Count Theodore did not expect Yanxing's confidence to be so sufficient.
"You can't use the earth magician to repair the road." count Theodore took a quill pen from the table, drew several lines and a circle on the map, and then said, "as long as you can win Gar tomorrow, I'll give you the road repair project from newtower to storm City, and I'll pay half of the road investment from eternal to newtower city.
I require that there be a sentry tower and supply point every kilometer on this road. If the enemy infiltrates, it can effectively prevent them from moving things.
In addition, newtower City reinvests eternal land to build a fortress 40 kilometers southwest.
If your road team can build roads quickly, building a rammed earth fortress should not be a problem.
We will set up a joint army in this fortress. Newtower will send an air force composed of 300 Griffins, and you will provide the ground force... "
Yanxing saw the circle that count Theodore drew on the map.
From this fortress to the west, it is the cracked mountain castle.
Put an army here. Whether the infiltrating enemy wants to attack the Eternal Lord or go to newtower city to destroy, they dare not ignore the existence of this fortress.
If there is a danger in the castle, the garrison of the fortress can also respond quickly.
According to the information known at present, the upcoming war is likely to spread here. It is really necessary to build a SecA in an important position.
Yanxing asked count Theodore, "how many troops do I want to provide?"
Count Theodore replied, "at the beginning of the war, the orcs and elves were on the offensive. Their strategic purpose must be to defeat the main force of marquis Anderson, and they will not use too many troops in high-risk infiltration and surprise attacks.
After all, newtower is a strong city. They can't easily capture it, but they may be trapped here. We can maintain an army of 1000 people in the fortress, mainly relying on Griffin patrols to supplement the loopholes in the fortress defense system.
When the war is at an impasse. A large number of reserve troops of the stormy highland army are transferred, and the orc elf coalition is likely to take a military adventure to attack the split mountain castle... "
