Why did the lord rebel

Chapter 180 The Road to War ([-])

Here we solemnly declare: women's clothing is not the primary productive force.

Even if some readers threatened: "You only code four thousand words a day, why don't you put on a skirt and a girl's dress to apologize", it still can't change the cruel reality that hard-working Internet writers are so short.

Similarly, Chris Mann shot a heavy arrow into the bandit camp's skirt package from a long distance away, and the provocative book written by the lord imitating Bob Brook's tone, also seemed to sink into the sea, and there was no response.

Obviously, the leaders of this group of bandit coalition forces made up their minds to be shy and silent.

"I thought bandits in the wilderness were all bloody..." Xia Houyan leaned on the wall, and glanced at Karen Lepergue, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

"The bandits are not fools, and maybe there are people from Rock Creek City in the formation. How could they fall into your inferior aggressive method?" Master Laurie, who couldn't bear the loneliness, just went downstairs and used magic to turn the fortifications up again. It was strengthened again, and now the old bum was bored and climbed onto the roof of the manor again.

Xia Houyan felt uneasy for a while.

Judging from the comparison of the card faces of the two sides alone, Frost Maple Ridge, which is far behind in terms of numbers, has completely formed a crushing situation against the Bandit Alliance in terms of equipment and magic power—to be honest, Karen Leperg The strategic theory of the cold weapon era that "wars are fought by people", the lord feels that it has long been outdated:
Didn't the US imperialists in the Gulf War prove eloquently that "wars are fought with money"?

However, in order to avoid unnecessary loss of the people, Shuangfengling, who has a wealth of wealth and strong walls, faces an opponent weaker than himself, but still hides behind the green dam, waiting for the opponent to take the initiative to come to his door...

This is as absurd as a billionaire who has a dozen luxury cars parked at home, but wants to sweep shared bicycles on the street.

Moreover, such a strategic choice made the officials of Xiahou deeply doubt whether he was cosplaying the Ming Dynasty, which is invincible in the world. A strong sense of historical humiliation.

——In the lord's vision, shouldn't our old Igor's combat method be a joint attack full of Guderian flavor by magic, projectiles, undead, cavalry and infantry rushing forward?
As for the ups and downs of Shuangfengling, it is obvious that he is not the only one who has this idea.

A slightly unfamiliar young voice rang out behind the high-level executives:
"My lord, we can't shrink back like this!"

Everyone looked back in unison, only to see that the one who made the sound was a new recruit of the Pioneering Army, who should have served as a guard for Master Laurie today, and then followed him to the Horned Eagle Manor.

——Yes, except for masters like Clement and Alice, all the high-level people in Frost Maple Ridge have their own personal guards: not to guard against assassins, but mainly to let them help Master Laurie, Joe The mayor of Er and the others serve tea and water, which is considered preferential treatment for old comrades.

Hearing the soldier speak rashly, Clement, the leader of the Pioneer Army, hastily reprimanded:
"Recruit! This is not the place for you to talk..."

"No, no, no..." Unexpectedly, the lord smiled with great interest, "Young man, tell me, what do you think?... No, tell me first, what is your name?"

Although the open recruit was pale and thin, he looked to be in his early 20s, a few years older than the young lord—however, when the senior official Xiahou called "young man" in an old-fashioned way Three words, no one present felt that there was any problem.

"Report to Lord Lord, I am Mountbatten! Sean Mountbatten!" The young recruit replied loudly, his loud and slightly trembling voice fully demonstrated his inner suppressed excitement.

"Very good, Sean Mountbatten..." Xia Houyan looked at the recruits with a smile, "You said just now that we shouldn't hide and defend on the Phoenix Terrace? But this is Commander Karen's tactical arrangement..."

"We are glorious human beings, why do we need the barbaric command of more than half the demons?" Mountbatten's words almost made Karen, who was a zombie, angry, "With all due respect, the tactics proposed by Commander Karen Being so passive, conservative and dull, it can only show that there is something wrong with her brain and the military school education of the Demon Race!"

Seeing that Karen rolled up his sleeves and was about to hit someone, Master Laurie quickly cast a "Calming Charm"—not to mention, spiritual magicians are really effective in this situation.

"Okay, okay, Miss Karen is also very good, Mountbatten, you don't have to speak so meanly just to attract attention!" Xia Houyan had already seen Mountbatten's careful thinking, and laughed.

"Recruit boy, my mother is a serious graduate of the Demon Royal Military Academy. It's not your turn to talk nonsense about military and tactics!" Karen, who was slightly relieved by the calming spell, pointed at Mountbatten and said viciously. .

Unexpectedly, this young wasteland recruit raised his face proudly in front of the big bosses of the territory:
"The Demon Royal Military Academy? What kind of pheasant school is that? I, Sean Mountbatten, am a graduate of the Imperial Military Academy's Staff Section!"

Everyone was stunned.

The "Imperial Military Academy" in Mountbatten's mouth is very familiar to the citizens of the Empire:
After the reform of the Imperial Military Department 70 years ago, this military academy organized by the old Grand Duke Rosario is not the Clayton University similar to the "Huangpo Military Academy", but the highest military education institution in the empire. The cradle of officers, staff officers, spies and engineers!

The problem is, it seems that it is not easy to establish a connection between the Imperial Military Academy, which is located in the imperial capital and is famous all over the mainland, and a wild boy in the wilderness...

"Wait!" Master Laurie shuddered suddenly, "Sean... Mountbatten? Mountbatten?! You can't be..."

"Yes! My father is Jason Mountbatten, Earl of Snowwood and former commander of the Sixth Army of the Empire!" Mountbatten's tone was filled with pride and uncontrollable grief.

Master Laurie hurried to the ear of the lord, and whispered science:

"This kid's unlucky father, a few years ago, because he was unfavorable in the battle with the Glorious Federation and fled, his majesty the emperor snapped his head - he should have been exiled to the Land of Soul Breaker at that time."

Xia Houyan looked at Mountbatten with a sense of intimacy.

The same people who have fallen in the end of the world, why should we know each other when we meet again!
Mountbatten probably didn't know that the lord who had experienced a similar experience had already developed empathy for himself, but he said without a pause:
"My lord, Shuangfengling's combat power is far superior to that of the Bandit Allied Forces. I have the advantage, so I should take the initiative! Let them build equipment in the east and plan secretly, and they will only feed the enemy! The history of the 'Light of the Empire' Austria Earl Raff, when his troops were slightly inferior to the demons, he would take advantage of the enemy to cross the river while he was crossing the river, so why do we, Shuangfeng Ridge, allow the enemy to set up camps and gain a firm foothold?"

The sonorous and forceful speech of the young guy stunned all the high-level officials in Shuangfengling. Even Karen, who had brows upside down, couldn't think of anything to refute the other party's whole words.

"Dear Xiao En, what you said is of course reasonable..." Xia Houyan smiled kindly, "But the reason why we are on the defensive in Shuangfengling is to avoid unnecessary casualties..."

Mountbatten was silent for a moment, then looked up into the Lord Lord's eyes.

This noble descendant who studied hard at the imperial military academy when he was young, and then lost his title and lived in the wasteland after his father was killed, faced his lord, without hesitation, and said every word:
"How can there be undead soldiers in a battle on the battlefield? How can a general be afraid of casualties? My lord, I, Sean Mountbatten, am willing to personally lead the team and carry out the offensive mission - if there are casualties in this battle, Then start with yourself!"
