She Is Not a Witch Chapter 196: War Merchant
In order to buy precious time, and at the same time to resist the counter-insurgency army going south, the 'Fairywood' organized the army in the general territory to assemble, and began to go to the place of the decisive battle, the Hill of Oath.
The empire's legion was divided into two groups going south, one of which was blocked in Hongdu County, where the mountain roads are steep and can be defended with the help of forts and fortifications, but the Hill of Oath is different, a large area of land in this province They are all rolling plains, and there is no danger to defend.
But if you give up, it means that you will be cut off from the two provinces in the east. This is a huge blow to the 'Dryer Wood' organization, and if this place is torn apart, the subsequent battle will become more difficult. A large number of newly occupied provinces will be forcibly cleared by the empire's legion, which will also be a huge blow to the morale of one's own side.
"So, we must stop the enemy at the oath hill."
In the large conference hall, the executive committee members and military officers of the organization sat and stood neatly, listening to the young man on the high platform in front of him. On the wall in the middle of the hall, a rough map was hung.
"The empire's legion has about 150,000 people, and according to front-line intelligence, they are still adding troops and gathering, and may reach 300,000 at the peak."
"Time waits for no one. It is already the end of March. If it is delayed until May, I am afraid that we will not only face 150,000 people."
The officers began to report and analyze the situation.
"How many fighters can we gather at present?" A mid-level committee member raised his hand and asked.
"At present, we have about 120,000 members who have received military training, but only more than 20,000 have participated in small-scale battles, and the others have no combat experience."
"Although the number is smaller than the opponent, if another month passes, we will have nearly 60,000 newly trained fighters stepping into the battlefield."
"In other words, around late April, there will be a short period of advantage between us and the opponent?"
"Just a numerical advantage."
"But that's rare good news, isn't it?"
"Let's assign tasks now..." At the end of the meeting, committee members and officers received their respective tasks and orders, and began to go to various places to mobilize supplies and personnel. And within a month, they will gather at the Hill of Oath to start their first decisive battle with the empire.
"So, the meeting is over now!"
After the meeting, Lu Bin, who was a high-ranking committee member of the organization, walked out of the hall, taking a rare breath of cool air. Currently, the task has been issued, and this is already the best they can do.
If it really fails, it can only be said that luck is like this, and look for the next opportunity again.
"Master Lubin." Just as he was standing on the steps contemplating, a guard with a halberd trotted over.
"What is it?"
"A businessman wants to see you."
"Oh, is there anything special about him." Lubin knew that these guards would not easily disturb him, and it must be that this businessman has something different.
"He said his name is Percy, sir, you should know him."
Persys, an underground warmonger in the southern border, specializes in arms smuggling and ammunition-related businesses. Of course, this is not his real name, but no one will care about it.
"I see, let's arrange to meet in the living room No. 5." Lu Bin nodded slowly, and then ordered.
"Yes, my lord."
After the establishment of the organization, there have been a lot of diplomacy and exchanges, and some of them have malicious intentions. Among them, the No. 5 reception room is specially aimed at such guests.
In such a living room, there is an extraordinary magic circle to suppress magic power, and there are also some hidden mechanisms. There are also many hidden 'guys' under the seats, which can be used at any time. In the room next to it, there will be two teams of elite guards on call at any time. It can be said that a lot of effort has been made in terms of safety.
After getting ready, Lu Bin brought a bibliographic officer to the living room, sat down first, and then closed his eyes and waited.
Not long after, there was a sound of footsteps unhurriedly in the aisle, and Lu Bin slowly opened his eyes and sat up.
Boom boom——
"Hello." A magnetic voice came from the door. This man seemed extraordinarily calm, even a little lazy.
"Hello, Mr. Percy."
After the two briefly greeted each other, they simply sat down, and the waiter who led the way also poured tea, then quietly exited and closed the door.
"This is a good place." The man looked around slowly, with a smile on his lips, and commented lightly.
He was wearing a black slender dress, with a small amount of gold thread embroidery on the collar and corners, with a luxurious and low-key temperament.
The man relaxed and put his hands on the armrest, then slowly crossed his legs and raised his legs, sitting at a comfortable angle before speaking.
"Sorry, I'm used to sitting like this at home, please forgive me if I offend you."
Lubin frowned slightly, but nodded.
"It's okay, you continue."
"If Mr. Lubin has heard my name, he can probably guess my reason for coming. Yes, I have some 'cute' guys here, who are just worried about not having a good master. If you need it, you can find it in I will take them away."
"Then can you say that there is still a price for the type?" Lu Bin also slowly leaned his back on the sofa at this time, looking straight at the man.
"This is natural." Then he reached into his arms, took out a folded soft cloth, and shook it lightly, revealing the clear black pattern and text description on it.
"First of all, there are about 1,600 silver-grade 'sharp silver pointed guns'. They have the 'armor-piercing' and 'penetrating' effects themselves, which are excellent against cavalry or armor-piercing enemies."
Listening to the first item introduced by the businessman, Lu Bin knew that the other party had come prepared.
"You please continue."
"The next thing is the silver-grade 'Long Rock Shield~IndoMTL.com~, about 1,200 pieces, with the effect of 'heavy' and 'condensate', which can effectively resist the impact of the enemy, and even the bombing of small artillery .”
"Afterwards is the gold-grade 'Magic Wind Crossbow'. There are about 340 pieces. It comes with the effects of 'armour-piercing', 'penetrating' and 'red poison', which is very helpful for dealing with superhumans."
"I will introduce these three first. If Mr. Lu Bin is interested, I can continue to talk about it."
"I'm really interested, but you should also know that we may not be able to offer so many extraordinary gold coins at the moment." Lu Bin spoke slowly in a calm voice.
"I also know something about your organization's situation, so before coming here, I also thought of some compromises."
"Although gold coins cannot be paid in full, I also hope that you will pay at least about 20% of the price, and I hope to pay the other part in another way."
The war merchant took off his glasses, wiped them carefully in his hand, and spoke unhurriedly.
