Release that Witch - Chapter 978

[Chapter 962 The Disappeared Supply Line]

“Oh?” Roland raised his eyebrows, “Let’s hear it?”

“Since Taquila’s devouring worms can create a passage through the mountains in the impenetrable mountains, they must not be troubled by the wild underground.” Edith stretched out two fingers, “As long as two worm carriers are parallel, they can dig Create a tunnel that can be used by horse-drawn carriages. Regarding this point, I specifically asked Minister Carl. The conclusion is that although the mud cannot support an underground palace like the Third Border Town, if a certain depth can be guaranteed, the passage is still possible. no problem.”

“How to advance?”

“Move at the same time as the main force of the First Army. The entrance is located in the center of the camp, and it is taken out by means of a shaft. A tent can be erected above it to disguise it as an ordinary camp.”

“What about after the evacuation?”

“Close the shaft, restore the topsoil, but leave the ventilation hole for the passage of wind.”

“Time required?”

“It will be about half a month slower than the normal march, but under the harassment of the devil, it is difficult to achieve the usual marching speed. And the biggest weakness of the First Army will also disappear-looking down from the sky, this army There will be only one fist left, which will surely attract the devil’s full attention.”

Roland couldn’t help but raise the corner of his mouth. It seems that after a whole day and night of thinking, the plan is quite mature.

“You came up with this idea?”

“That’s right,” Edith said frankly, “but the final completion is the result of the collaboration of multiple departments. In addition to the Ministry of Construction, the School of Arithmetic also participated in it—but they don’t know the specific content of the second plan. ”

Should he be worthy of being the Pearl of the North?

The most rare thing about this plan is not to think of ideas, but to use all available resources.

If it is an ordinary person, it may be difficult to take the monster-like worm carrier into consideration.

And the School of Arithmetic is a new school that was established less than a year ago. Apart from stargazing, she usually only receives tasks assigned by Roland, and she is already trying to use more professional personnel to calculate the efficiency of channel supply military supplies. up.

This vision beyond ordinary people is really gratifying.

In addition, for some unknown reason, he also had a vague illusion that Edith seemed to be more sharp than before, as if shed a layer of cover.

“Good job,” Roland encouraged, “Just implement it according to this plan.”

“Yes,” Pearl of the North paused, “but I still have to say that the results of the deduction of the second plan will still result in casualties, and the process will not be easier than the battle of Coldwind Ridge against the church. After all, the devil It is the party that occupies the initiative, and before the First Army arrives at the destination, it is unlikely to rely on pre-set positions and bunkers for defense as in the past.”

“So you are more inclined to sit still and wait for the opportunity?”

“No, I tend to gnaw this bone no matter what,” she replied slowly, “If the battle of divine will is really as cruel as the Taquila people say, then a bloody test is not enough for the First Army. It is absolutely necessary. But you—I always feel that you care too much about the lives of soldiers, so that you have to think about every step, but after the enemy is replaced by an unknown devil, some things are beyond human control, so Please also prepare yourself.”

This is the feeling… Roland thought to himself, if it was before, the other party would not be able to say such a thing, but if it was changed to another lord, it might have been regarded as an offensive word.

As smart as Edith, she would definitely not make low-level mistakes in such details.

Is this a chain reaction from the last disposal?

But whatever.

As long as it works for him, the rest is irrelevant.

“I see, you go down.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

After Edith saluted and took her leave

, Nightingale appeared with dissatisfaction on her face, “Do you care about the safety of your subordinates?” Isn’t it right? She is overstepping!”

“I don’t think there’s anything wrong,” Roland said with a smile, “but everyone has their own ideas, and you can tell if you listen to them.” It’s just that he has another idea in his heart—the reason why he should be as thorough as possible is because he has no idea at present. Can’t afford to lose.

These soldiers were not a motley crew of mercenaries and serfs. Almost everyone could read and write, not to mention that some officers had the ability to read pictures and make reports. To reduce losses, we must try our best to reduce them.

Just as Nightingale was about to say something more, the listening symbol hanging on her chest suddenly lit up red.

Roland’s heart sank suddenly, “Has the devil made a new movement?”

The interrogation time was very short, and she replied almost immediately, “No, it’s good news, the third batch of witches from Sleeping Island is expected to arrive in Neverwinter tomorrow evening, led by Ms. Camilla Darry. ”

It turned out that it was the magical sound transmission from Tilly… Roland heaved a sigh of relief, “Go tell Wendy, and welcome them according to the reception standards of the first two batches.”

This should be the last batch of migrators, accounting for almost half of the total number of witches on Sleeping Island, and the current framework of Maleficent has been built, and he can safely hand it over to Wendy in terms of statistical ability and recruitment process. done.

As for the remaining witches, he believed that as time went by, they would sooner or later accept the fact that the Kingdom of Graycastle had taken on a completely new look.

“No problem.” Nightingale seemed to have forgotten about the Pearl of the North, and just as she was about to escape into the mist, Roland suddenly stopped her again.

“Wait… Camilla is leading the team? The witch who is planning to go to the sea line with Joan?”

“Yes what’s the matter?”

“Let me think about it…” Roland pondered for a moment, “Didn’t the previous situational deduction think that the devil always takes the initiative? Maybe I can make the opponent’s maneuvering advantage even smaller. UU reading www.sonicmtl. com”

“Uh, are the two related?” Nightingale looked puzzled.

“I’m not sure yet, but I’ll have to try,” he said with great interest. “When Camilla arrives, I need to talk to her in person.”

After entering the western region along the Chishui River, the sides of the river gradually turned brown-yellow—that was the color of the mixed harvested wheat straw and soil.

Judging from the thickness of the straw, this year is another bumper harvest year.

Andrea stood at the bow of the boat and took a deep breath against the cool autumn wind. The farmland baked by the sun gave off a unique smell, which made people feel inexplicably relaxed and satisfied.

She didn’t know if it was the aftertaste of the harvest, or the anticipation of going home soon.

Maybe it’s a little bit of both.

“Don’t they…don’t collect these things?” A curious voice suddenly came from behind, “It’s obviously a good kind of fire starter.”

Andrea turned her head, and found that the speaker was a God’s Punishment Witch whose name seemed to be Carol.

“You still know this?” When she was a child, she also asked her father similar questions, such as why farmers collected the harvested wheat stalks and tied them into hills, and her father’s answer at that time was to make a living.

“They don’t have enough money to buy firewood, so in order to survive the winter, they must gather all the heating things they can, and straw is an excellent fuel. It is flammable and easy to get, and many nobles will buy it Some of them are used to start a fire, and people can use it as a bedding when there is a lack of clothing. Although it burns smoky and stings when you sleep, it is better than freezing to death. In your eyes, these straws may be It is a useless thing, but to those who need it, it is as important as the ear of wheat, and it is an indispensable part of life.”
