At the beginning of the dinner, Yanxing and Carol chatted casually and politely.
Then the topic turned to the battle in the windy highlands.
Recently, Yanxing has been busy with the issue of food stamps by creed information exchange and eternal grain bank. Even if he goes to the city master's house to see count Theodore, he mainly talks about the loan from newta city to eternal grain bank.
Therefore, Yanxing didn't know much about the specific situation of the war, but looking at the old count's look and fatigue, he was obviously not optimistic.
Yes
The principality does not send a single soldier to support the stormy highland Legion. Faced with the attacks of elves and orcs, the new recruits every week can't offset the consumption at all.
If there is a shortage of troops, we can only find ways to use war weapons.
Recently, count Theodore placed a large order with the goblin refinery. Workshops all over newtower city have also received a large number of orders for war equipment.
Magic shield, alchemy bomb, war puppet
Catapult, crossbow, stab board, armor, shield, crossbow, arrow
All war related workshops are at full power to manufacture weapons, and the money can't be spent at all.
Count Theodore did not know the consequences of his loan from Yanxing.
But at this time, who will lend himself the money.
Who can lend himself the money?
Anyway, the war was lost, or the Duchy sent someone to replace Marquis Anderson. He had nothing at that time.
As long as we can persist until the end of the war and newtower is in our own hands, there will always be a way to solve the problems arising from these wars.
Yan Xing was afraid of affecting the old count's mood and didn't ask too much about the war.
Now when I meet Carol officially, I can't help asking more questions on the front line.
Carol's work in Rose court is mainly to collect War intelligence and find an opportunity for the principality to regain control of the stormy highland Legion.
Therefore, Carol has a comprehensive understanding of the war situation.
The stormy highland army is in a bad situation, and both fronts are in danger.
Fortunately, the elves fought too fiercely at the beginning of the war, and the offensive during this period was not as fierce as before.
Allow the stormy highland Legion to focus slightly on the orc battlefield on the western front.
The orcs on the western front face the storm city in front of them, and the attack is very fierce.
It has been autumn for some time now.
Winter in the north comes early. When the first snow comes down in the north, the elves are likely to withdraw.
Then the orcs will face the stormy highland Legion alone.
At that time, they may be cut off by the Terran army on the eastern front.
Therefore, this war, the orc and ELF coalition forces must produce results within a month. After a month, the situation will become more and more unfavorable to them.
The orcs on the Western Front fought desperately after knowing the emptiness of the stormy highland army.
The three fortress cities in front of storm city have been attacked by orcs many times. If Marquis Anderson had not led the family soldiers to fight back, the fortress city would have been lost.
However, even if it was so difficult, marquis Anderson still did not bow to the principality.
The principality's army had gathered at the pass from the mainland to the windy Highlands, and only waited for the right time to rush into storm city to seize Anderson's military power.
This meeting with the secret envoy of the elves is to ensure that the Elves will be a help to the principality when storm city seizes military power.
When Carol was telling Yanxing about the wars on the East and West lines of windy highland, she couldn't help thinking about some things she wanted to meet with the secret envoy of the spirit.
Yanxing listened carefully.
The battle at windy heights did not exceed his expectations.
But he did not know why the principality was so calm at this time.
Isn't she afraid of being defeated by orcs?
"An outsider of mine..." Yanxing said after Carol said, "count Theodore dare not say something, but I dare. The contradiction between Marquis Anderson and the principality is the best to solve at first, and the more delay, the more difficult it is to solve.
Now Marquis Anderson should firmly grasp the military power.
If you put extreme pressure on marquis Anderson like this, you are not afraid that he has no choice but to give storm city to the orcs? "
Carol didn't expect Yanxing to open this layer of window paper that everyone knows is unspeakable.
She also immediately figured out that Yanxing was making his position clear.
Although he lives in Newtown and runs his own business in Newtown, he knows his position very well.
An outsider can say what he wants.
An outsider naturally talks about what he wants to talk about.
Using ice jade porcelain tableware more exquisite than last time, Carol tasted delicious dishes she had never eaten before. At the same time, she replied to Yanxing: "the stormy highland army is the regular front-line army of the principality after all. Marquis Anderson's prestige is based on his fight against orcs and elves, so the soldiers of the army admire and obey him.
But I will never follow him to the orcs.
At least most soldiers will not betray the principality.
In a crisis situation, the principality's army has the ability to take over the stormy highland Legion before the orcs take control of storm city.
Like count Theodore, now he's really trying to raise supplies for storm city.
If Marquis Anderson really betrayed the principality and became independent one day, the Theodore family might rebel with him.
But if Anderson wants to release the orcs into storm City, even if the old count's only two daughters are in Anderson's hands, he will stick to the reinforcements of the principality such as newtower. "
Yanxing thinks what Carol said is reasonable.
It was a founding hero to follow Marquis Anderson on his own.
What is it to follow Anderson to work for the orcs?
Not only let himself and his family be infamous, but also won't be reused by the orcs.
But Carol was too full.
War is not a thing that will develop in whatever direction you want it to go.
Storm city is such an important strategic place that it must be foolproof. How can we gamble for military power?
If the orcs take full control of storm city without timely support, do you still want to turn over with a newtower city?
Yanxing feels that a national think tank will never formulate such a risky strategy. Carol must have other plans to increase both military power and storm city.
Of course, Carol won't tell herself what her cards are.
Although Yan Xing is curious, it's not easy to ask.
"Since the principality can protect its interests in the windy Highlands, I'm relieved." Yanxing took up his glass and invited Carol: "my business in newtower city is getting bigger and bigger, but I don't want to be affected by the war and cause losses.
I sincerely hope that the principality will win this war. "
Carol raised her glass and bumped into Yanxing.
After drinking the wine, she covered her mouth slightly, coughed, and then asked Yanxing, "I can see that newtower is a little small for you.
When the principality regains real control of the windy Highlands, it is bound to liquidate some people.
For you... Think about who you need to be friends in the future. "
