Chapter 512 - An Even Worse Situation

Chapter 512: An Even Worse Situation

Near Lionheart City, in a quiet tributary of the Reniston River.

The fleet led by Baheshtur was hidden in it. The dense reeds made the huge fleet less likely to be exposed. and the merchant ships that tried to pass through this tributary these past few days were all destroyed by Baheshtur, at this moment, they were lying quietly at the bottom of the deep river.

Within the fleet, Kant was sitting on the ship.

Kant looked at the summary of information reported by the spies. After thinking hard about the situation for a while.

Kant sighed and said, “It seems that Firentis has gone overboard!”

“However, his strategic intention of making my name known and announcing the strength of my army has also been achieved.”

“However, it was completely opposite to my original goal. I originally wanted to attract the support of the noble families by displaying my tyrannical strength

“I don’t even know if he succeeded or failed!”

At this moment, Baheshtur stood respectfully in front of Kant’s desk made of expensive wood. When he heard Kant’s words, he couldn’t help but say, “Lord, wars are always unpredictable.”

“All wars should have victory as their highest goal. If Firentis wants to use war as a show, it’s too risky.”

“The enemy is not the puppet in his hand. Their reaction will not be exactly the same as he expected.”

Kant frowned slightly and said in a low voice, “That group of South County’s noble in Seria Castle, their move is really ruthless.”

“They directly pushed me to the opposition to the noble families in all the kingdoms and dukedoms, as well as all the sects. Even the South County rebellion army, which has already agreed to join us, suddenly changed their minds.”

“And that group of North County noble alliance army and East County noble alliance army, they are also surging with undercurrents!”

“Baheshtur, tell me, how should I respond?”

Baheshtur saw Kant frowning, but there was no anxiety on Kant’s face, so he said, “Lord already has a plan in mind, I just need to follow your orders!”

Kant heard Baheshtur’s somewhat flattering words, smiled and said, “In that case, Baheshtur, listen to my orders!”

Kant placed the sheepskin scroll that Baheshtur had previously asked him to make a ruling on on the expensive and solid wood desk, pushed it towards Baheshtur across the desk, and pushed the sheepskin scroll in front of Baheshtur.

“You will immediately start a war according to your new battle plan for the surprise attack on Lionheart City and take down Lionheart City!”

“The mage troops that I will lead, as well as the squads of the Swadian Royal Knights and the squads of the Sarleon Lion Knights, will all obey your orders!”

Baheshtur’s spirits were lifted. After he had re-investigated the strength and distribution of strength in Lionheart City, the battle plan that he had once again made was directly agreed by Kant. This was Kant’s affirmation of him.

Baheshtur grabbed the sheepskin scroll that had his war plan written on the expensive and solid wood desk in front of him. He bowed and said to Kant in a high voice, “Baheshtur obeys your orders, my lord!”

Kant smiled and said, “Go! I look forward to your victory!”

Baheshtur held the sheepskin scroll and respectfully retreated from the room that was specially used for office use.

Kant gave an order to another mage who was respectfully standing in the room, waiting for a reply, “Convey my three orders to Firentis!”

“First, let the East County noble alliance army leave on their own! If there is any intention of a backlash, destroy them immediately!”

“Second, force the Northern County noble alliance army to attack Seria Castle, and try to use the North County noble alliance army as cannon fodder!”

“Third, have him convey my orders to Rolf. Have Rolf lead his desert bandits and the 5,000 heavy cavalries that were supposed to end the South County noble alliance army to wipe out the South County’s rebellion army and seize the wealth that the rebellion army plundered from the South County!”

The mage respectfully received his orders and left. At this moment, Kant was the only one left in the room.

Kant considered these orders thoroughly and found out the gaps.

Kant did not need to give a specific war plan. He only needed to coordinate the overall war situation and control the overall situation.

Baheshtur, Firentis, and Rolf were all heroes with extremely strong war abilities. As for the specific war arrangements, Kant could just leave it to themselves.

At this moment, according to the spies.

All the sects in the human countries had sent an elite knight order towards the Dukedom of Leo.

The purpose was self-evident.

However, the journey was long and time-consuming.

Kant wanted to use this time to take down the Dukedom of Leo as soon as possible.

At least, he would occupy half of the South County and Lionheart City, forming a triangle and sealing off the heart of the Dukedom of Leo — the Lion Fort.

Kant had set up his early preparation.

He was not afraid of war. With the system, war would only make him stronger.

As long as he had enough denar!

However, the rumors spread by the Southern County noble alliance army this time somewhat disrupted Kant’s previous blueprint of conquering and ruling this continent.

He originally planned to use the world’s army as the main body to ensure his own strength. He would use the system village’s advanced towns and fortresses as the foundation and use the world’s noble families as support to rule and manage the territories he conquered, and to provide the army to expand from his war strength.

Step by step, this gradually encroached on the world.

But now, such an idea, it seems to be impossible.

Facing the coming knights of various sects and churches, Kant faced them only one way, war.

It was not that Kant did not want to clarify and prove to them that his strength did not come from the devil.

It was that he was unable to clarify.

Kant couldn’t explain to them that his strength came from the system.

And if he didn’t explain clearly and completely clarify, these stubborn religious armies would obviously not give up.

The noble families of this world would all agree that Kant’s strength came from the demons.

In this way, they wouldn’t join Kant at all.

If the rumors spread by the South County noble families in the Seria Castle changed from Baron Kant to someone else, even if Kant saw it himself, he would think that such rumors were very believable.

There was a saying that in this world, the only thing that would not change was the change itself.

Kant agreed.

His grand plan had just taken half a step forward — to recruit the rebellion army of the South County as his henchmen, but it was suddenly shattered by the change in the situation.

Originally, the rebellion army of South County had accompanied Rolf to the battlefield at the border between South County and North County, preparing to outflank the heavy cavalry legion of the South County noble alliance army .

This would make the entire battle scene even more grand.

It would also highlight the shocking scene in the battle plan of Firentis.
