The mage arrives

Dellington sneered and didn't speak, but Earl Exxon who brought him to the meeting spoke.

"Baron Freeman, how can you gain the trust of everyone here by hiding everything like this? Please tell us the detailed plan now, and give us a little confidence."

Earl Exon stared directly at Gordon, as cold as a knife.

The head of the Winter Claw Legion had a good relationship with the Eisenstein family, and Durlington served under his command. He was a promising junior and had given him a lot of guidance in military strategy and swordsmanship.It can be said that the relationship between the two is a master-student relationship.

As a straight-tempered soldier, Earl Exxon hated his family, and naturally had a deep prejudice against Gordon, who had many conflicts with Durrington.

The Winter Claw Legion, which is good at cavalry and mobile combat, has so far made no achievements in this battle, and has almost always served as the general reserve.Seeing that the rival Redstone Legion has repeatedly made military exploits in the defense of the city, and Gordon Freeman has solved the crisis several times by himself. This not only makes Durrington feel bad, but Exxon is also very depressed .

Dellington has ambitions, hoping to become the rising star of the Empire.And Earl Exxon had ambitions, too.He asked himself that his strength and ability were no worse than those famous generals whose names had boarded the star wall in history, what was missing was just an opportunity.

When he was sent by the emperor to station in the north, he was still a little reluctant.Because the border of the Freyton Empire borders the Black Dragon Empire Northengard to the east, and it is a land of opportunities that soldiers who want to make great achievements dream of.There are pirates in the southeast coastal area, and barbarians in the southwest jungle who do not accept the rule of the empire.They are places where it is easy to obtain meritorious service.Only the North, although facing the threat of the tundra orcs, second only to the Black Dragon Empire, is protected by the Anduin Great Wall.On the contrary, it is the most peaceful place.Even if all the land outside the Great Wall was lost a few years ago, every winter, at most, some small groups of orcs crossed the steep Cold Mist Mountains and fled to the territory of the Far Frost Province.

But this year, Earl Exxon finally got his long-awaited opportunity.The head of the legion is a professional aristocratic soldier, so the damage caused by the war to the civilians, the loss to the empire, and so on.He dismissed it, and only had one thought in his mind: to defeat the orcs and build a career.Become the same famous general as Kargas Scipio, the commander of the Eastern Thunder Legion, who can make the children of Northengard cry when they hear his name.

Now that the offensive and defensive battle with the orcs was about to enter the most critical moment, Grand Duke Rob Andello ignored his elite Winter Claw Legion and instead relied on a young man.I do not know when the sudden emergence of a mage.This has made Earl Exon very dissatisfied.

What made him even more annoyed was that facing an important matter related to the success or failure of this battle: how to destroy that floating fortress, the mage Gordon Freeman claimed to have found a way, but he refused to reveal it.It was hard for him to accept.

Do I want to entrust the lives of all the soldiers of the Winter Claw Legion to a mysterious mage who refuses to reveal anything?no way!

Earl Exon is a powerful warrior with a level of thirteen, even stronger than Viscount Demon, who fought side by side with Gordon in the dark elf dungeon.Although such a person's aura does not reach the legendary realm of "a tiger's body shakes, the king overflows".It can also scare many people.

But Gordon was not a nobleman who would be silent when he was glared at by Earl Exxon.He ignored the knife-like eyes of the other party, but said calmly: "My lord, my plan involves a very important secret, so I can't make it public now. And this kind of thing is related to the outcome of the entire battle , the fewer people who know about it, the better. After all, there has been some unrest in Gaoyan City recently because of the spies of the Three Saints Baptist Church."

"What?" Earl Exon's face became more and more gloomy. "You mean, you suspect that some of you here are in collusion with the enemy?"

"I didn't say that." Gordon shrugged and spread his hands.He really did not believe that among the high-level officials who were qualified to participate in the military council, there were traitors colluding with the enemy.The reason why I say this is because although some people will be offended, but with such a big hat on, these people will be dissatisfied, but they will not blatantly ask about the details of Gordon's plan - because if they do this, wouldn't it be It makes people suspicious, really colluding with the enemy and wanting to snoop on secrets?

In the face of such disputes, Grand Duke Rob Antello had to resolve them in the end.

"Okay, Exxon, I will be responsible for the plan to destroy the floating fortress in the end. You can't trust Gordon, can't you trust me? It's true that not too many people should know about this matter, and Gordon revealed it to me a little bit before. In some cases, the only man he needs to use is my mage group, so it doesn't matter if you don't know the specific situation."

"Grand Duke..." Earl Exxon wanted to say something more, but saw Rob Antello waving his hand at him, so he had no choice but to give up and sat back with an expression of unwillingness.And Dellington suddenly leaned over and whispered to Earl Exon.

A bright color appeared on the stern face of the commander of the Winter Claw Legion. He stood up again and said to Grand Duke Rob Antello, who was about to end the military meeting: "My lord, since you have decided to adopt Baron Freeman, the one who concealed it deeply I can no longer object to the plan, but to be on the safe side, we should make other preparations."

"Another preparation?" Perhaps in order to appease Earl Exon's dissatisfaction, Lord Scepter made a "please" gesture to let him continue talking.

"I got a reliable piece of information. In the tundra orc army, the warlord Shakara Longbeard, who ranks second only to the warlord Ugru Iron Claw, is planning to launch a rebellion four days later because he is dissatisfied with Ugru's command of the battle. A total of [-] orcs will participate in this rebellion. Sakala promises that if we help him solve Ugru Ironclaw and the leader of the Three Holy Baptists, then he will immediately lead the remaining orcs back to the tundra."

If what Earl Exxon said is true, it is undoubtedly excellent news for the Freyton people.But the question is, how credible is it?

"I know Shakara Longbeard. He ruled three orc tribes at the same time, and he is the orc in power second only to Ugru Iron Claw. After he failed in the battle for the title of warlord, he and Ugru Iron Claw Claws formed a grudge." Rob Antello said.

The Grand Duke's intelligence agency is not a vegetarian either, and has a good understanding of the internal situation of the orc army.

Earl Exxon nodded: "My lord, since you know everything about the enemy, it should be clear that Sakala Longbeard has deep conflicts with Ugru Iron Claw not only because of the power struggle, but also because of his belief in Rusek, so I am quite dissatisfied with the cooperation between Wuglu Iron Claw and Sansheng Baptist Church."

Rusay is the god of life in the orc pantheon.The demons from the abyss are in completely opposite camps to all life in the main material world.

"So, where is your source of information? Where did you get the news that Sakala is about to rebel? I must know." Since the matter is of great importance, Grand Duke Andelo needs to further confirm the news.

Dellington glanced at Gordon, his face full of complacency, and he stood up and said, "My lord, I was the one who provided this information to Earl Exon. Today he brought me to the military meeting for the same reason. This matter. I have no secrets to hide. The person who provided the information is waiting in the fortress. If you need it, you can call it at any time to ask."

Gordon could not understand the meaning of the other party's words.Dellington was obviously ridiculing himself for not daring to disclose his plan to destroy the flying fortress.But he just smiled disapprovingly and didn't say anything.

"Well, let him in."

After a while, a man with an ordinary appearance but with a powerful demeanor came in.

"Good evening, Grand Duke Antaello, and my lords. I am Lan Kede, a Viscount from Thunder Rock Province. This thing can prove my identity."

Viscount Ranked took out a platinum coat of arms from his pocket, and showed it to Grand Duke Antaello.The latter's eyes flashed, he pondered for a moment, then nodded: "I understand."

The badge in the hands of this viscount is not only exquisite and unique, but also exudes a unique magical aura, which cannot be imitated.He is a royal intelligence officer directly under the orders of the Anduin royal family, no fake.

Viscount Ranked told how he intercepted the secret letters between them and the tundra orcs from the intelligence personnel of the Black Dragon Empire Northengard, and then knew that the other party was preparing to cooperate with the orcs and attack Freyton.He found in the letter that the leader of the orcs who made the decision to communicate with Northengard was not Ugru Iron Claw, but Shakala Longbeard.Viscount Lankeld noticed something different, so he continued to dig deeper, and finally noticed signs of rebellion within the orc army.

"Because Grand Duke is very busy every day, I'm just a stranger, so I don't want to rush to see you. However, because I have a little friendship with the Eisenstein family, I have to ask you to report this important information to you. I hope you will forgive me .” Viscount Ranked finally explained.

Grand Duke Antello asked again and again, and Viscount Lanket answered very well.The language is fluent, the thinking is clear, and the links are interlocking. Every detail can reflect each other and is impeccable.

While the lord of the scepter was questioning, he secretly used mental spells to detect it, but he didn't find that what Viscount Lankard was telling was a lie.

"Grand Duke, you now believe that what I said is true. This will be a great opportunity. You just need to make an agreement with Shakara Longbeard that when the orcs have internal strife, we will immediately lead the army to attack. Defeat Ugru Iron Claw. After the defeat of the orc army, what if the Three Saints Baptist Church repaired the floating fortress? They can't change the situation of the battle!"

Dellington gave Gordon a sideways glance triumphantly, as if to say: Your plan is meaningless, only my method can turn the tide of the battle. (To be continued..)
