"This really requires careful planning." Sean nodded in agreement.
Some time ago, he was stationed in the northern fortress, and he knew the situation there very well, so he took the initiative to take over the task of interpreting the other party's intelligence.
"The hatred between Silver Wolf, Evil Wolf and Gray Wolf has been around for a long time. They were originally the same big tribe, but later they split because of the brothers' rebellion. The pastures were crisscrossed, and there were many conflicts between herdsmen. Originally, the Silver Wolf tribe had an absolute advantage.
, keeping the evil wolf and gray wolf pressed down and unable to move."
"But three years ago, the Silver Wolf Tribe encountered a plague, which changed the situation. The Evil Wolf and the Gray Wolf saw the opportunity and wanted to annex the Silver Wolf Tribe. Unexpectedly, the chief of the Silver Wolf Tribe was not a good person.
The damage was heavy and their main force was also bruised."
"In the end, both sides suffered losses. Now it is the continuation of their tribal war. The Kogel Grassland is the final battleground they chose. Originally it was still a matter of debate whether they could fight, but after our provocation last winter, they fought before winter.
In one battle, not only the troops were lost, but also the preparations for winter pasture were insufficient, the condition of the cattle and sheep was not very good, and both sides had no other options."
"After the beginning of spring, the two sides will inevitably have a decisive battle, and only the winner can leave the Kogel Grassland."
"And this is our opportunity. It is impossible to eat them all in one bite. It is not difficult to unite one party, eat the other party, and profit from it. The question to be determined now is which party we help."
This winter, although there was peace between the Odin orc tribe and the northern fortress, even the ranger sentries were withdrawn by the other side as a sign of friendship.
This does not mean that the Yongye Group Army has relaxed its vigilance. The eagle eyes buried in the Kogel Grassland have dug out the opponent's information to be prepared.
"Each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages. The alliance between the Evil Wolf and the Gray Wolf is stronger than the Silver Wolf Tribe. If they join forces with them, coupled with the geographical advantages, and a joint attack, they can surely defeat the Silver Wolf Tribe. But precisely because of the strength of the other party,
The other party may not necessarily like us. How much of the spoils can be divided depends on how hard it is with the other party."
"Although the Silver Wolf Tribe is relatively weak, it has a wise leader who will not reject our kindness and will be able to maximize our interests more easily. However, against the Bad Wolf Gray Wolf, we have no geographical advantage and are mainly infantry, so it is difficult to compete with them.
The other party cooperates."
"This is basically the situation. Do you have any good suggestions?"
"I think we should support the Silver Wolf tribe for two reasons." Kelman, another chief of staff of the Military Staff, first said.
"The first reason, the General has already said, is that in terms of strength comparison, if we join forces with the Bad Wolf and Gray Wolf Tribe, it will be the icing on the cake. People may not necessarily like us. If we cooperate with the Silver Wolf Tribe, it will be a timely help. As long as his chief
You are not stupid, you should make the right choice, and during the alliance process, because of your weak strength, not only will it be difficult to bite us back, but the more dependent you are on us, the easier it will be to manipulate us."
"The second reason is because the Silver Wolf Tribe has a wise leader. Since the general described it like this, he must have gone through systematic investigation. It is much easier to convince a smart person than to convince those who are single-minded, and the other party is also more knowledgeable.
Master the art of making trade-offs.”
"As for the problem that the general is worried about, I don't think it is a problem. Now the enemy is overt and we are hiding, and it is easier to use our strengths and avoid weaknesses with deliberate calculations. What's more, we are just playing tricks. The Silver Wolf tribe who wants to annex the opponent is the real one.
Main force."
This young man, who had just joined the military staff not long ago, was at his peak when he showed his uniqueness in the self-defense counterattack of the Kentana barbarians in the mountains.
Compared with the maturity and stability of the Bulls' Eriksen, his thinking is like a young man's, which has injected new vitality into this relatively serious and boring department.
Thinking outside the box does not mean that everything is strange. When it comes to dealing with the two forces of Odin and the Orcs, we have not found any shortcuts, and we are not prepared to eat them all, monopolize the Kogel Grassland, and turn it into an army pastoralist of the Evernight Group.
Wild thoughts in the land of horses.
It is true that the Eternal Night Army has some strength now, but it is far from being able to poke a hornet's nest like the Eastern Odin Empire.
The three tribes of Silver Wolf, Evil Wolf, and Gray Wolf were only medium-sized tribes even in their heyday. However, there were hundreds of such tribes in the Eastern Odin Empire, not to mention the most powerful ones.
It is said that at its peak, the Royal Court of the East and West Din Empire directly owned no less than three hundred thousand brave and capable warriors, and its herds and flocks were like clouds in the sky, as far as the eye can see.
It is true that those large tribes look down on the Kogel Grassland, but it does not mean that they allow foreigners to occupy it.
If the Yongye Group Army dares to do this, it will directly stab the lungs of the Eastern Odin Empire. Once Wang Ting finds out, even if he does not personally lead the Royal Court army to wipe out this place, just sending a large tribe over will be enough for the Yongye Group Army to drink.
Of the pot.
"I agree with Chief of Staff Kelman's opinion. Supporting the Silver Wolf Tribe can benefit more from this."
"I also support it. Prioritize contacting the Silver Wolf tribe. If their leader is really wise, otherwise, kill them first."
"Second!"
"Second!"
Soon the senior leaders of the Yongye Army reached a consensus and agreed that uniting the Silver Wolf Tribe to share food from the other two tribes was the first choice.
In addition to the two points mentioned above, there is also the fact that the Silver Wolf Tribe is somewhat aware of the existence of the Evernight Army because it is close to the Odin Grand Canyon, while the Evil Wolf and Gray Wolf Tribes are still in the dark about the Evernight Army.
If they get involved and the other party still treats the Silver Wolf tribe with the same old attitude, they will definitely suffer a big loss.
The premise is that the leader of the Silver Wolf Tribe, Rakesh, is as wise and cunning as the investigation, and does not have such strong racial concepts. This needs to be confirmed through direct contact.
But who to send as envoy to the Silver Wolf Tribe is another problem.
The person sending the envoy must not only have a good understanding of the Odin Orcs, but also have excellent adaptability, and be familiar with the bottom line of the Evernight Army to facilitate negotiations.
After many calculations, there are not many suitable people in the entire Yongye Group Army.
Marshall and Ralph were blocked as soon as they opened their mouths. They didn't speak professionally. One was in charge of administration and the other was in charge of intelligence. No matter how they turned around, it was impossible to get to them.
Skullcrusher McGee wanted to wander around the prairie, but he really wasn't in the business of being an emissary.
Sean wanted to take this job, but all he got were negative votes. Meeting an Odin orc tribe chief and meeting the Byron Alliance regent princess Sophilia are completely different things.
Not only does the latter have a high and powerful position, but Sean can only prove his respect for her by taking action in person.
It's also because the two have completely different behavior styles.
When meeting the regent Princess Sophia, even if the two parties cannot reach an agreement, the other party will not easily make things difficult for Sean due to the restrictions of his noble status. The risk index is relatively low, not to mention there is Angie Beina in the middle.
It's different to meet an Odin orc tribe chief.
Although the reputation of the Odin Orcs is not as bad as the bad street, it is almost the same. They do not have the reputation of not killing the envoys. Their attitude towards the lobbyists and envoys is often completely based on the chief's personal preference.
In the future, unless he is meeting a big shot like the Regent Princess Sophia, Sean will basically have no chance of going on missions like this, including the previous one where he ran to Manyu's army and jumped around alone, even if he vomited.
Lotus, if you talk about the dead person being alive, others will not allow him to do so.
After all, as the Yongye Group Army develops and grows, his status becomes more and more noble. In many cases, he no longer represents himself, but the entire Yongye Group Army. Once he falls into the hands of someone with evil intentions, he will lose his little life.
Regardless of his fate, he might be used to threaten the Yongye Group Army.
Sean is somewhat conscious of this now, and tries his best to suppress his thoughts of jumping outside the direct control of the Evernight Army. Even during the counterattack against the Kentana barbarians in the mountains, he did not try to get close to the front line.
, but sat as a second-line coordinator, doing some wrangling work with Ben Hebrew.
Even a guy with a simple mind and well-developed limbs like Skullcrusher McGee knows that although Sean now bears the title of general, his mission is to become a qualified ruler, not a general who charges into battle.
.
The first thing a qualified ruler must learn is how to delegate power, how to assign others to do things, and leave professional matters to professionals.
So far, Sean has done it in some aspects, but not very thoroughly. There are some things that the first thing that comes to mind is to take action personally.
Sean understands the principle of delegating authority.
But knowing it is one thing, actually doing it is another thing, especially since Sean still has the concepts of ordinary citizens in his previous life. If he wants to become a qualified ruler, it is more difficult for him to learn than other people.
People are taller.
Overall, however, progress has been rapid.
"I think I am the most suitable candidate." A stout figure slowly stood up. It was none other than Chief Chief of Staff Ericson of the Military Staff Department.
Several core executives of the Yongye Group Army exchanged quick glances. It was obvious that the other party's proposal was a bit beyond expectations.
Although Ericsson's status in the Yongye Army is not the most special one, he can still be regarded as one of the more special ones.
Many people who later joined the Yongye Army knew that the Military Staff had a Chief of Staff who looked more like a general than a civilian, but they did not know his past background and nickname.
But his status as a reduced general cannot be removed.
But in real terms, Bull Eriksen has not done anything extraordinary or said anything out of the ordinary since he joined the Evernight Army.
I don't know if it's his nature or his status as a reduced general that makes him cautious and taciturn. His life is basically a three-point one.
Report to the Military Staff Headquarters on time every day, get off work on time, go home on time, eat on time, practice martial arts on time, and go to bed on time.
Life cannot be more regular. Unless it is necessary to attend the internal gatherings of the Yongye Army, you will never see him.
The result of this is that he basically has no friends in the Yongye Army.
If we really had to make a hard calculation, Skullcrusher McGee should be considered half, a fair-weather friend and an opponent for sparring and fighting.
You don't need to ask to know the process. It must be Skullcrusher Mikey licking his face and getting in front of the person.
When it was first established, the Evernight Army had a limited number of great knights. At that time, he was the only one who could rival Skullcrusher McGee.
The diplomatic method that Skullcrusher McGee is best at, and only good at, is to clear the way with fair trade.
However, it is difficult for most people to refuse, especially those big knights and champion knights. Each of these humanoid monsters has a good appetite. Even if they are not gluttons, they will never refuse a meal delivered to their door.
.
Although Erikson has basically escaped from the war, his personal cultivation has not dropped a day. It is hard to say what level he is at now.
Eriksson was already a senior knight when he was working under Bastille Bolton.
When the Eternal Night Army set up the devil training program hosted by Darnell, he was consciously excluded because his attitude towards the Eternal Night Army had always been ambiguous.
However, afterwards, Sean realized that there was something wrong with this. The other party's attitude was indeed ambiguous. If he did this, wouldn't he be consciously pushing the other party away?
Therefore, through the hands of Skull Crusher McGee, the training content and methods were leaked to Bull Erikson, and he accompanied him to sparring regardless of anything, basically recreating the scene of the original devil's training plan.
I am still not a champion knight, but I still have a certain chance of mastering the fusion of spirit, spirit and body, and reaching the threshold of a champion knight.
Whether or not this can be achieved is a matter of two worlds.
In any case, in a short period of time, Bulls Eriksen is the most promising member of the Evernight Army to become the championship Cavaliers.
Another advantage of Bull Erikson is that he is very self-aware and knows that the Yongye Group Army lacks trust in him, so he never takes the initiative to ask for assignments, and he does his duty honestly and does his job as a military staff officer——
Make plans.
This situation like today is the first of its kind.
And the first thing he did was his hometown, Odin Grassland, his own people.
Of course, outsiders generally can't tell the difference between the Eastern and Western Odin Empires and between tribes. They are all Odin Orcs anyway, pretty much the same.
Having said that, if you think about it carefully, the other person is really the most suitable candidate.
Odin's origin as an Orc allowed him to have no big obstacles in communication. Although he has lived in the Byron Alliance for most of his life, his childhood has left an indelible mark on him, a mark that belongs to the Odin Orc.
.
Needless to say, he has abilities. As a general, being able to become the Chief of Staff of the Yongye Group Army is the best proof.
Even the young and energetic Kelman has to admit that there are many things worth learning from the calm and mature Eriksson.
The only problem is the trust issue caused by the other party's status as a surrendered general.
After briefly making eye contact with several other core executives of the Yongye Army, Sean, who was rarely the first to express his stance in such meetings, took the lead and said: "I agree."
"I agree too."
"I agree too."
What followed was a series of secondings.
This time Sean fully absorbed the lesson from his treatment of Andis Tiger Tagore.
Trust is a mutual thing, and someone has to take the first step.
Compared with Rabindranath Tagore, Bull Eriksen has been with the Evernight Army longer and has a deeper bond with each other.
If this is the case and the other party still has not formed an identity with the Yongye Group Army, it will be useless no matter how long they stay.
If the other party escapes privately, it will naturally bring certain influence and leaks to the Yongye Group Army, but it is within the tolerance range. Because of trust issues and some core secrets, Bull Erikson has no chance to participate even though he is in a high position.
of.
He himself pays great attention to this aspect and rarely inquires about this aspect.
Of course, if the other party is deliberately plotting against the Yongye Army, they might have some secret information in their hands.
However, the Yongye Group Army is not too afraid. The internal enemy, the Walled City Alliance, has become fat meat on the chopping board. How to cut it and how to eat it all depends on the mood of the Yongye Group Army.
The military leader Manyu was too busy taking care of himself, while the Odin orcs looked down upon him.
The natural geographical environment allows them to have no major external enemies in a short period of time.
Even if the Bulls Eriksson has the information, he has no one to sell it to.
On the contrary, if Bull Eriksen can use this incident to prove his recognition and loyalty to the Yongye Army.
The Yongye Group Army will have one more comprehensive talent, and it is absolutely impossible for him to remain in the military staff and let him stay quiet.
Once the tone is set, the rest is easy.
Everyone made some guesses and discussions around the possible attitude of the Silver Wolf Tribe, and discussed the bottom line of the Yongye Group Army in this regard, how to maximize it, how to cooperate, etc.
These will be the negotiating principles for Bull Eriksson's mission to the Silver Wolf Tribe.
And an emergency plan was made in case the Silver Wolf tribe might fall out.
