Release that Witch Chapter 869: Eastern Offensive

"That's Golden Harvest City?" Iron Axe turned telescope, looking at a gray-brown city in the distance.

"As shown on the map, it should be it, after all, there is only one Sanwan River, and it is unlikely to get it wrong." Deputy Bear's Paw replied. He, like Iron Axe, was born in Border Town hunter, which is the earliest group of people who worked for feudal lord.

"A bit strange ..." He frowned.

"Where is the strange?"

"Golden Harvest City is the main city of eastern region and a major trade center of Greycastle's. The old Kingdom Capital, Eagle City, Golden Harvest City, the three constitute the central part of the kingdom's bustling area. I even heard its name when I was at Extreme Southern Region." Iron Axe explained, "But in the last few days, don't you think that the merchant ships we met are pathetic?"

"I don't know about this," Bear's Paw shrugged. "Presumably the previous pirate attacks scared the merchants and never dared to come here to do business."

"The attack was two years ago. No matter how severe the looting was at the time, it should be resumed."

The walls in the field of view are ugly and bloated. The brown wall seems to have been intentionally widened, perhaps lacking stone. The new exterior wall is made of red mud, which is also mixed with a lot of crushed stones and wood. Some look like early Border Town's gravel walls. In addition, the surface of the city wall is covered with a layer of shiny things. Due to the long distance, the Iron Axe is not very clear.

The old and new city walls are stacked together, so that the width of the top of the wall is more than doubled. However, this transformation is not complete. Some parts are still the same as before. They look rough and pitted when viewed from afar. Not at all like a city known for its richness.

"Take care of him, just take it," Bear's Paw found a fire lantern fruit in his arms and threw it into his mouth. "Even if it is not Golden Harvest City, but what about Silver Spike and Iron Spike, Your Majesty's The command is to level the entire eastern region, right? So simple, just see one after another.

Iron Axe shook his head helplessly. This guy is still the same as before. He rarely thinks for more than three breaths. The most common thing to do when he meets his target is to throw a javelin at him. When another hunter was still trapping and releasing a hunting dog to track prey, he had already returned with the hunting results. According to legend, even the scariest black bear in the forest is unwilling to provoke him too much, which is why he got the title Bear's Paw.

If he would move his mind more, he wouldn't still be an lieutenant, even the Van'er guy would be the chief commander of Artillery Battalion.

"But the battle process is not the point. The point is how to deal with it." It ’s just that Bear's Paw made the Iron Axe slightly surprised. "If we mess up eastern region, City Hall will definitely find us in trouble, but if The gang of officials would not even stand still. If Your Majesty explained how to act? "

"No, he just told me to watch situation."

"That's a headache. Of course, you are the boss. Naturally, you have to consider it. I will do then it will be alright." Bear's Paw grinned.

Iron Axe could not help but be interested, "where is the headache of Oh??"

"Do you really do n’t know or are still testing me?" Bear's Paw held his forehead, "Of course it is a headache how to deal with those noble. eastern region insists that they have not waited for a turnaround, but the power of Your Majesty's is getting stronger and stronger, they There will definitely not be only one voice inside. By that time, most people will surrender, and then trouble will come. Without Lady Nightingale, how do you tell them? "

"Continue," Iron Axe nodded, and it didn't look like the other side was completely mindless.

"Hey, you don't really think about it," Bear's Paw widened his eyes, "Eastern Front Army is not very large in number, and the number of teams that can stay behind is very limited. At most, it looks after the inner city, but it is Timothy. Base Camp! Those nobles who are willing to cooperate with us after the surrender are fortunate to say, in case they are worried and want to seize power at all times? Even if only a handful of such people can make eastern region not rest peaceful -- and other troops, City Hall is useless It ’s all a trivial matter. If it ’s more serious, the officials sent by City Hall will probably have a hard time survive. Poisoning, assassination, buying out ... these methods are not firearms's defense.

"So what do you think?" Iron Axe wondered.

"Boss, this is your business," Bear's Paw rolled his eyes and spit the chewed fruit seeds into the rolling river water.

"Suppose that, for example, now that you are the chief commander of Eastern Front Army, just talk about it."

"Hmm ..." The other side pondered for a while, then sighed, "There is no good way, if Lady Nightingale can't come, you can only tell by time. Or buy more Mouse, Take precautions, and follow the method of Neverwinter City to get a police force to maintain order, and use as few surrenders as possible to noble until the end of the war.

"Sure enough ..." Iron Axe whispered.

"What?"

"No, nothing," he put away telescope, "There is nothing for you here, go to notify other people on the boat, prepare for landing, we are close to the dock in the suburbs."

"Understand!" As soon as the war was mentioned, Bear's Paw immediately came to the spirit, "After drifting on the river for so long, I can finally do the last one!"

Looking at the back of Xingxiang leaving, Iron Axe exhaled, and leaned forward in front of the porthole in the command room, thinking deeply.

He could not help but reappear the scene when the army started calling, Edith was looking for him to talk.

The meeting place was in the tavern room opened by Evelyn. It didn't really look like a place to talk about business. Iron Axe thought that the other party was planning to act as an Ministry of Defense officer. Feelings, but did not expect that there is only Pearl of the Northern Lands in the private room, and what is said is enough shocking.

The content of the conversation between the two is exactly the "headache" that Bear's Paw ravages.

Everything he said, he still remembers it clearly.

"Why do you think Your Majesty will let you take charge of Eastern Front Army?" He was surprised by the opening remarks of Edith.

"I only obey orders, I don't ask why."

"But the order will not explain every detail clearly, especially on some things that are not convenient to mention," Pearl of the Northern Lands said methodically while holding Chaos Drink, "the answer in your heart is because No one other than you can be responsible, but is it really the case? What level of strength of the eastern region group of people, you should be more clear than me, any regular army of five or six hundred people can be destroyed To defeat them, in other words, the commander at the battalion level is enough to deal with the Eastern Front. On the contrary, the Western Front has to deal with Holy City of Hermes. Not only is situation complicated, but the potential danger is much greater. If it is not for a special reason, let you assist the Your Majesty command. Western Front Army, it is appropriate to hand over Eastern Front Army to other talents. "

"..." At that time, Iron Axe did not have answer, but I had already agreed with Edith.

"As for this special reason, it is actually very simple, that is your attitude towards noble." The other party said, "As a Mojin Sandpeople, you will not have inexplicable fear and tolerance for Greycastle noble, and you will recover eastern region. The key lies in how to handle the rebellion noble. "

After that, her analysis is roughly the same as those of Bear's Paw, but she has to be careful about many --s and Iron Axe can't help but believe. By ordinary methods alone, impossible makes eastern region return to stability.

Your Majesty requires population and natural resource, and it does n’t take so much time to spend on a group of dregs.

The only problem is ... "Your Majesty has not been so accountable."

"Of course not. Your Majesty is the Lord of Mercy, so we can only do some things," Edith said slowly. "But he did not imply that -- sent a total of 260 City Hall in this operation. Five people walked with the army. They were all managers who were hard to cultivate by Your Majesty to take over the land that needed to be recovered. And Eastern Front Army accounted for more than two-thirds of the total number, and you should understand why. "

Iron Axe still remembers that moment like a Lightning passing over his heart.

"Don't let Your Majesty down." Edith finally said.

"Sir, preparations for landing of First Army have been completed, and the fleet can be docked at any time!" Suddenly, his report interrupted his thoughts.

Iron Axe took a deep breath and ordered a deep voice, "Go ashore and set up camp, prepare to attack the city!"
