Chapter 241: Agreement, Intermediate Support, Counterattack

Politics has always been a game for those in power, and as a vassal or subordinate, their opinions may be important, but they will not be decisive. Therefore, at the subsequent joint meeting of the Atterborg nobles, Baron Ensberg

Although the "Rheinburg package solution" proposed by the parents of various families also caused controversy and doubts, after a long time of turmoil, the final result was to comply with Moriarty's overall plan.

"Thank you very much for your support and understanding. I firmly believe that the flower of friendship watered by war and blood will bloom forever." Raising the wine glass in his hand, Moriarty stood in Kent as the absolute protagonist for the first time.

In front of the nobles of the county.

"May friendship last forever!"

Although it was not clear what everyone was thinking, at least on the surface everyone clinked glasses together enthusiastically.

From this moment on, a new political-military-military force officially appeared in Kent County.

"Once the situation stabilizes, I will give priority to sending troops to help you regain your lost ground. At the same time, everyone knows that many other nobles unfortunately died in this demon war, so the new order after the war still needs everyone present.

Working together is the key." Pure oppression cannot bring about long-term balance, so after taking the initiative on the surface, Moriarty immediately threw out follow-up bait.

"Morty is right. This war is both a threat and an opportunity. Moreover, not only our county has been invaded by demons, but other counties in the kingdom are also in the same crisis. If we can actively regain the lost land, we can even send troops to other places.

County. I think your territories and titles will be different after the war." As expected of a veteran nobleman who is good at personnel matters, or maybe Baron Ensberg quietly said hello, Lord Helin immediately took over Morea.

Take the "bell" in your hands and carry it forward.

"Well, that makes sense."

"Yes, if we have indeed established meritorious deeds, I think even the royal capital will have to consider it."

"If we can gather the power of our counties, we might not be able to defeat the devil, and even send troops to other counties."

Since Moriarty made it clear that he wanted to take advantage of the chaos to occupy the southeastern auxiliary fortress of the kingdom, it would be reasonable to think that he would occupy some unoccupied land in the name of fighting the devil. Once the royal family is held accountable after the war, Ensberg will support him.

In the front, such a consensus was reached, and the atmosphere in the conference hall was suddenly different. At this point, with a common interest basis, the "chariot" headed by the Ensberg family was truly stabilized and ready to drive on the track.

"Morty, when do you plan to counterattack Rheinburg?"

All the above agreements are based on the premise that Moriarty can recapture Rhineburg from the devil. Moreover, the long-term defensive battle has long made a passionate soldier like Lord Rother suffocated. He immediately asked.

"tomorrow."

"So soon?" Baron Ensberg was surprised when he heard the news for the first time.

"Your troops have come thousands of miles away and are about to engage in a fierce battle. This..." Lord Rosser also looked at the other party hesitantly, but did not directly express his doubts.

"We came by airship, so we don't actually consume much physical energy. We can recover quickly after taking a rest. Moreover, I'm worried that the news that our troops have arrived at Fort Yate will spread among the demons over time. By then, Rhine

The fort may increase its security."

Although the devil looks like a cannibal and nothing like a wolf, in fact its senior leaders also possess outstanding intelligence and foresight, so Moriarty must hurry up if he wants to raid Rheinburg.

"I understand." The Baron nodded and then asked: "What kind of military support do you need?"

"My subordinates have basically filled the airship, so I hope that what I need is the support of intermediate-level and above warriors." Moriarty had already made up his mind and said directly.

"Intermediate level..."

Baron Ensberg was a little embarrassed by this request. There were only a dozen or so mid-level warriors in Fort Att now. If some of them were separated from the eldest son, the pressure on their own defense would be greatly increased, even if it was only for a short period of time.

"Three, I can assign three mid-level warriors to support your attack." After repeated consideration, the Baron made a decision.

"Thank you, father." The three mid-levels didn't sound like much, but they were a considerable help. Moriarty immediately thanked him sincerely.

Soon, three mid-level warriors were selected and brought to Moriarty. They were:,.

Among them, Victoria was the young lady of the Rosser family who had been used as a bargaining chip and almost became Moriarty's wife. However, after not seeing each other for a few years, I didn't expect that she would be promoted to a mid-level professional, which is an anomaly among aristocratic ladies.

.

"Nice to see you again, Miss Victoria." Out of courtesy, Moriarty first greeted the lady among the three.

"I am also very happy, Your Excellency, to be back at this time. You are a true gentleman." Different from the cold attitude before, the attitude of Victoria in front of her was quite friendly.

"Thank you." Looking at the tall female warrior who was almost the same height as herself, Moriarty smiled and nodded, and then looked at the other two mid-level warriors respectively: "You three, the operation will start tomorrow morning, and we will take the

The airship goes to Rheinburg, then swoops in at noon, destroys all the demons entrenched in it, and then completely takes over the place."

"Your Excellency, what is our total military strength?" A calm middle-aged man asked with a frown.

"The specific action plan will be explained by my staff officer. Please report to the small square before six o'clock this morning." Moriarty said lightly without further explanation, but a sense of battlefield air was in him.

Faintly awe-inspiring.

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Feeling the real "combat aura" on the other side, no one dared to question Moriarty's identity as a commander. That was something only a soldier who had actually been on the battlefield could possess. Even Lord Rosser secretly admired this seemingly

The young juniors seem to be omnipotent.

Because the war was imminent, the welcome dinner originally scheduled for the evening had to be cancelled. After a simple dinner, Moriarty and Baron Ensberg held a two-person meeting in a secret room. The content of the meeting was as follows

Agreement regarding the future offensive and defensive alliance between Rheinburg and Attburg.

After preliminary discussions, Yatebao will provide Rheinburg with food, cloth and other various living materials for a long time at an average price that is 30% lower than the market price. In exchange, Rheinburg and Earth Studio will sell a batch of supplies to Rheinburg at cost price.

Special military products and alchemy props were used to enhance the defense capabilities of Castle Art. Baron Ensberg even agreed to transfer a certain number of refugees to the restored Rhineburg to enrich Moriarty's rule.

"Morty, do you want to meet your brother?" After the preliminary agreement was finalized, Baron Ensberg suddenly asked.

"No need, it's already late. I guess he's already asleep." Moriarty shook his head and stood up.

"That's fine." The baron smiled regretfully and stood up.

Returning to the temporary camp in the small square, many tents have been set up there. Except for the necessary patrols and guards, others have already started to rest after a full meal. Of course, the battle plan to fly to Rheinburg early tomorrow morning has been issued, but for the long-term

For Olympus at war, it was not a big deal. The veterans just chatted for a few words and then lay down and fell asleep.

"As Old Crow said, tomorrow's battle plan is like this, and the key lies in surprise attack and resistance. Do you all understand?" In the captain's room of the Dayun, Moriarty pointed to the magic sand table,

Discussing tomorrow's siege plan with a group of confidants.

"Understood, hehe, we finally let our brothers be the vanguard!"

Naga's younger brother Chekov was the first to laugh loudly, because according to Clausewitz's arrangement, the three Balalaika brothers would undertake the crucial first wave of attack missions. Although it was the most dangerous, it was also the most glorious.

"Humph, it's just a matter of patience, why bother?" Guderian couldn't find the forward position, so he couldn't help but muttered a little sourly.

"What's so wordy!? Remember your fighting position and responsibilities. Whether you can stop the devil's counterattack is the key to success or failure."

White glared directly at the silver-bearded dwarf, who couldn't help but lower his head to count the ants with a guilty conscience.

"This time, Artburg has sent three mid-level warriors to assist us in our battle. Staff officer, let's use them as battle reserves." Turning his head, Moriarty informed the old werewolf.

"Haha, I know."

I don’t know whether he doesn’t trust these newly arrived friendly forces, or he doesn’t want to lose manpower and affect the cooperative relationship with the Kent County nobles. Moriarty obviously intends to put the three people from Fort Yate in a safer second-line position. However,

, although the old werewolf smiled and nodded in response, he made up his mind that if the attack was blocked tomorrow, he would send these three people to the most intense and dangerous fighting position and use them as consumables to replace Olympus' casualties.

As a staff officer, Clausewitz always put his troops first. As for politics, that is not what soldiers should consider.

"Hai Na, you and the Earth Studio will stay here temporarily. If everything goes well, the airship will return to Fort Yate tomorrow night to pick you up."

"Yes, I understand." Heyana nodded and obediently accepted her fiancé's arrangement.

"Also, Hugo should come to discuss with you tomorrow the transfer of the 'residents'. The first batch will be about fifty households. I'll leave it to you to discuss the specific matters."

"OK."

These fifty households are the refugees transferred to Rheinburg under the agreement, and there will be two larger batches later.

"So, everyone, our 'new life' in Erathia will officially begin tomorrow. Let's work hard! Wan Sheng!"

"Wonderful victory!" (To be continued...)
