Yanxing and Shibel rode back to Eden's manor together, and trained the road repair team to work hard until the evening.

When the two returned to the city lord's mansion, Count Theodore called Yanxing alone.

In a closed room guarded by heavy troops, a brazier on the wall illuminates a map in the middle of the table.

"This should be a topographic map of the Fierce Wind Highlands." Yanxing guessed and asked Count Theodore: "There is a war defense arrangement of the Fierce Wind Highlands Legion on it, which seems not what I should have seen."

Yan Xing saw that there were many military units logos on the map, so he turned his head aside.

At the same time, let Chuhua save the copy and save the map.

Eternal Ling finally has a relatively detailed map of the windy highlands, so I don’t have to test my soul painting skills.

Earl Theodore summoned a magical light to float on the top of the map.

Then he said to Yanxing: "This map is probably no secret on the windy high ground. Perhaps the map on our enemy's table is more detailed than mine."

Then you can watch it.

Yan Xing turned his head and stared at the map, and asked Count Theodore, "Teacher, you asked me to see this map. Is there anything I asked me to do?"

"Do you remember the mercenaries you sent who colluded with orcs to attack your territory?"

Yanxing replied, "Of course I remember, I handed them over to Miss Shibel."

"They are all dead." Earl Theodore said slowly, observing Yanxing's reaction.

Yan Xing sighed and said with a point of view: "It's good to die."

There are some things that cannot be clearly stated in the current situation of the Stormy Highlands.

When foreign enemies are facing each other, it may cause a major internal shock if they are clearly identified.

This kind of thing can only be investigated secretly.

"Yes, it's good to die, their crimes should be damned." Earl Theodore turned his eyes back to the map on the table: "But the defensive loopholes in the north of Newta City cannot be ignored."

Yan Xing looked at the map.

Between Thunder Swamp and Newta City, there is a large meadowless area. The southwest border of Thunder Swamp extends to the west, and is scattered with forts built by the Human Wind Highland Legion.

On the side close to the grassless area, the fortress group is very densely constructed. In addition, there is a military city in the middle of the fortress group - Risan Fort connecting the entire defensive system, guarding the northwest area of ​​Newta City, and preventing orcs and elves from penetrating towards Newta City.

The orc heads and mercenaries brought by Yan Xing both show that there are loopholes in this barrier and it is not small.

"I don't want to participate in your fight, this is the position of Thunder Swamp."

The small body of the Eternal Collar is not qualified to participate.

For Count Theodore, he hoped that Thunder Swamp would help him guard the north, and he did not want to pull the swamp tribe into this dispute and add unnecessary variables.

But this loophole does exist.

"Actually, I knew that some people in our country colluded with orcs and elves, and even suspected that person. But that person would never expose Newta City to the enemy's troops..." Earl Theodore paused here and continued: "After knowing that the orcs attacked your eternal territory, I have been studying the northwest barrier of Newta City. One quarter of the fortresses must ignore the infiltration of orcs in order to allow 300 evil wolf cavalry to appear silently near your eternal territory.

The worst case is that there are important personnel in Risan Fort involved.

According to the information I just investigated, the mercenary leader you mentioned, Yarlin, once served in the Rift Mountain Fort."

This is really not good news, and it is the same for Yanxing.

If he is an orc, an elf commander. Once the war begins, he will definitely send troops to infiltrate through these loopholes and raid the logistics base of the Fierce Highland Legion.

If you are braver to attack and capture Rifting Fort, Newta City will transform from the rear into the front line.

If this happens, will orcs and elves ignore the Eternal Territory?

Definitely not!

Yanxing sent Gustav's head to Chief Little Leah.

Even without this grudge, the Orc Elf Alliance would not allow a friendly territory in Newta City to exist behind when it attacks Newta City.

Yan Xing didn't expect that the war was so close to him.

He asked the Marquis Theodore, “Is there a way to block the loophole?”

Earl Theodore shook his head: "There are only a small number of people who collude with the enemy. If we investigate with great fanfare, it will inevitably affect morale. If there is any rumors spreading, it will cause distrust among the troops.

This war is lost without fighting.

Traitors can only investigate secretly, but our time is too short... and it may not be possible to have results."

Earl Theodore not only sighed.

The external enemies are strong, and the internal enemies are equally strong.

Yanxing felt that Count Theodore called him, and must have thought of a solution. He asked, "Is there any way for the mentor?"

However, Earl Theodore asked Yanxing: "How confident are you to win Gal tomorrow's road construction competition?"

Yanxing learned about the process of the road construction team of the Golden Oak Chamber of Commerce through Eden.

"As long as Gal doesn't use the earth magician to build roads, there is no suspense we will beat him."

Earl Theodore did not expect that Yanxing's confidence was so strong.

"There must be no earth-type magician to build roads." Earl Theodore picked up a quill from the table, drew a few lines and a circle on the map, and said, "As long as you can win the road repair project from Gal. Newta City to Storm City tomorrow, I will give you the road investment to Newta City, and I will pay half of it.

I asked that there was a supply point for the sentry tower every kilometer along this road. If an enemy infiltrated, it could effectively prevent them from moving.

In addition, Newta City Reinvests the construction of a fortress at a distance of 40 kilometers southwest.

If your road construction team can build roads quickly, it should be no problem to build a rammed earth fortress.

We set up a joint army in this fortress. Newta City will send an air force composed of three hundred griffins, and you will provide the ground force..."

Yanxing saw the circle drawn by Count Theodore on the map.

Walking west from this fortress is Risan Fort.

There is an army here. Whether the infiltration of the enemy wants to attack the Eternal Territory or go to Newta City to destroy it, he dares not ignore the existence of this fortress.

If there is danger in Risan Fortress, the fortress's troops can also respond quickly.

According to the information currently known, this upcoming war is very likely to affect here. It is indeed necessary to build a fortress in an important position.

Yanxing asked Count Theodore, "How many troops do I want to provide?"

Earl Theodore replied: "At the beginning of the war, the orcs and elves were on the attacking side. Their strategic purpose must be to defeat the main force of Marquis Anderson, and would not use too much force on risky infiltration and surprise attacks.

After all, Newta City is a strong city, and they cannot easily conquer it, but may be trapped here. We can maintain an army of thousands of people in the fortress, mainly relying on griffin patrols to supplement loopholes in the fortress defense system.
