"You really don't want to eat" Niceh sat down in her chair with a relaxed expression, with the dinner just brought by her officers in front of her.
She was carrying a grilled fish in her hand and said with a shallow smile: "Do you have the habit of watching people eat?"
Roddy just frowned and didn't answer.
It's been two whole days.
Edith, the guy who secretly followed, hid in Roddy's room and didn't show up.
Roddy strictly ordered that no one should come in without his permission.
Every three meals are brought in.
I don't know what kind of psychology it is, Roddy doesn't want others to know about Nice's existence.
Nitis gracefully picked up the cup, drank the last drop of milk from the last cup, and then leaned back comfortably, giggling, "Okay, I'm done." ” Luo Di glanced at the other party coldly, walked over and swept away the rest of the food like a whirlwind, and then said lightly: "Okay, you go back to sleep" Nitis sighed, "Don't you know any politeness, why are you always so cold and unkind." ” Roddy's gaze finally stayed on Nice's body, and said lightly, "Then you tell me about the dwarf clan." ” Nidis smiled slyly: "I said, unless you promise me to take me ashore at your destination, you don't want me to tell you something" Luo Di frowned, and his face sank: "You have already guessed that we are going to war, and you have to follow me to tell you, when the time comes, you will stay on the ship honestly for me and don't think about going anywhere."
Nidith annoyed, "Do you think I'll be obedient?"
Roddy shrugged his shoulders: "If you don't obey, I'll knock you out when the time comes." ” The two stared at each other for a long time, refusing to give in to each other.
Finally, Nitis chuckled and whispered, "Okay, I won't fight with you."
Well, I'm going to take a shower, you get me water."
"What do you want," Roddy seemed startled.
"Take a bath," Nidis said confidently, "I've been here for two days and haven't taken a bath, haven't you ever taken a bath?"
Luo Di really smiled this time, but it was a wry smile: "Take a bath, you really want to find trouble, don't you know that this is above the sea, every drop of fresh water on the ship is precious, and we are marching this time."
It would be nice to have a hot meal on the march."
Nidis glanced sideways at Roddy: "With your status, you can live in such a big room."
Eat such good food, can you still eat without bathing water?"
The two stared at each other again for a long time, and Luo Di finally sighed: "Okay, I'll arrange it for you." ” He turned to go out when Nydith went and stopped him again: "Wait" Roddy said impatiently: "What's wrong again" "And the clothes," Nidis seemed to blush a little, "I've been wearing this dress for two or three days." ” Roddy was speechless, then slammed the door hard.
It seems that the king really took a fancy to Roddy, and all the people on board complied with any request he had.
After a while, several officers carried several buckets of hot water into Roddy's room.
It's just that the clothes don't seem to be easy to get, there are no women's clothes on the ship, and Roddy doesn't dare to ask them for women's clothes.
Just sent a set of ordinary military uniforms.
A few steaming buckets were placed in the outer room, and when the officers had walked out, Nitis came out through the inner door.
The room was filled with steam, and Nitis seemed a little shy: "What are you still doing here, get out quickly" Luo Di smiled bitterly: "I went out, I just asked them for hot water for a bath, now how can I go out" He said lightly: "You wash here, I'll go inside to avoid it." ” "No," Nice's face turned even redder, and she pushed Roddy out hard when she went up, shouting, "You are not allowed here" Roddy was helpless, with Nice's strength he couldn't push him at all, but other girls wanted to take a bath, and it was always difficult for him to force him to stay.
Out of the hatch, Roddy sighed, looked left and right to see that no one was near the door, and he sighed.
After thinking about it, it was decided to go to the king.
The king's face turned even paler, and even his breath was a little weak.
A few guards outside the door let Roddy in.
Luo Di said in a deep voice: "According to our itinerary, it should be tomorrow, and we should be able to see the land before dawn tomorrow." ” After waiting for a while, seeing that the king did not react, Luo Di frowned and said, "Shouldn't you hurry up for the officers under your command to give orders now?"
The king's eyes were a little deep, and he whispered, "It's not time yet. ” Roddy pondered for a moment and said in a low voice: "According to the distribution of the dwarven armies along the coast that I have seen, there will be a valley fifteen miles inland from the landing site we have chosen in advance, and through that valley will be a medium-sized town for theirs.
There were about fifteen thousand troops stationed there.
I suspect they'll have small bands of rangers patrolling around town.
After landing, my idea was that I would personally lead a team of cavalry to make a quick assault and take that town as a stronghold as quickly as possible, and at the same time get some supplies there" Roddy was carefully stating his thoughts, but looking at the king squinted his eyes, and did not seem to be listening carefully.
"Your Majesty, did you listen to what I said," Roddy felt a little strange.
The king stood up, looked at an hourglass placed beside him, and suddenly smiled mysteriously: "Okay, we'll talk about these things later, and in three hours I'll order the fleet to stay for a while, and then gather the officers of the various warships here, and talk about what you think later." ” Roddy was stunned, only felt that the king's attitude was really a little strange, and couldn't help but say: "I'll talk about it then" He tried to suppress a trace of anger, and said in a deep voice: "If you want the battle to go well, it's best for us to make a plan for the march now" The king seemed to be thinking, his eyes kept looking at the hourglass next to him, and after a full quarter of an hour, the king finally spoke: "Roddy, have you seen the spirit fox?"
Roddy frowned.
The king continued to laugh and said, "The spirit fox is a beast with extremely precious fur, very small in size, very beautiful, but also very cunning.
In the aristocratic circles of the Roland Continent, many noble ladies like to keep this animal as a pet. ” Roddy sank down, he knew that the king must have had a purpose in saying these words, so he simply sat down and listened quietly to what the other party had to say.
"Unfortunately, this animal has a very strange surname.
Adult spirit foxes can never be tamed, even if they catch adult spirit foxes, they will struggle until death, so to tame spirit foxes and become a kind of pet, you can only catch young spirit foxes" The king's words were not hurried, and he said slowly: "But there is another special feature of this kind of spirit fox, there will only be two small juvenile spirit foxes in a spirit fox's nest at most, and if the hunter directly touches the fox nest and wants to catch them, the adult spirit fox will immediately bite the little spirit fox to death, and would rather die than let them be captured, which is a strange creature." ” "And this spirit fox is very cunning and intelligent, and rarely leaves its nest."
The king was smiling: "But fortunately, they still have to hunt, and when experienced hunters find a fox den, they often get a hare to put around and lure the adult spirit fox out."
And then hehe" Roddy's heart suddenly sank, and his face changed slightly: "What do you mean by this?"
The king put away his smile and said in a low voice: "The dwarves have always been suspicious and cunning, do you really think that according to our plan, you can fool them, although this plan seems feasible, but there are still loopholes in it, we can only succeed this time, we can't fail, so we must find a way to make up for these loopholes."

The king raised a few fingers, and said lightly, intentionally or unintentionally: "First, we have mobilized troops on such a large scale, even if it is a secret operation that has been exhausted.
However, with such a large-scale mobilization of troops, the news will inevitably leak out of the second, our internal may not be a piece of steel, others do not say, the position of the right minister has always been very subtle, this must be with your cleverness, you will not fail to see it, with the status of the right minister, can our army movement hide his eyes and ears?"
The king sighed and continued, "If we fight the dwarves, the temple will naturally not sit idly by.
If the right phase really fell to the temple and hummed," his tone gradually became gloomy: "Then the temple doesn't have to come forward by itself, as long as you find a way to reveal this news to the dwarf clan a little, our sneak attack will become an open attack, then there will be no advantage at all" Instead, Luo Di calmed down and said slowly, "Go on." ” "So," said the king, smiling, "so it must not have worked according to our original plan, so we have to work around."
If the dwarves are spirit foxes and their country is spirit fox dens, then in order to be able to touch the spirit fox nest, they must first lure out their army, well, it should be said that the adult spirit fox is lured out."
"So in fact, our current fleet is just that hare, it's bait," Roddy said coldly: "Our fleet doesn't plan to attack, it's just to lure the opponent's fleet over, right?"
The king did not refute, and said calmly: "Yes, even the right minister thinks that this fleet of ours is a real offensive force, we can't take this risk, do you remember a few days before the departure of our fleet, the last fleet to be transported to the Bright Continent?"
Roddy said coldly: "That fleet is the real offensive force, right, we are here to support the pretending, and then attract the dwarven sea fleet, and then the fleet that set off in front can land smoothly" His gaze was as sharp as a blade, staring straight at the king's face.
As if sensing Roddy's anger, the king sighed, then he coughed lightly a few times and said in a deep voice: "According to the intelligence, it seems that the fleet of the dwarves has really received our news and seems to have sensed our original plan.
Their navy did not follow and monitor the previous fleet all the way, but had already returned on the day of our departure, if the right minister is really from the temple side and really revealed the news, then if I guessed correctly, the naval fleet of the dwarves is not far from us now" "Hahahaha" Luo Di suddenly let out a wild laugh, his laughter was full of anger, and he suddenly stood up: "Good means, sure enough, good means, in order to attract the navy of the dwarf clan, you actually sent so many warships and so many soldiers, well, no" Luo Di raised his head, glared at the king, and said coldly: "Since it is a decoy, then there is no need for so many soldiers If I guess correctly, there are not many troops on the ships of those fleets we brought this time."
"Yes."
The king admitted simply: "One hundred and fifty warships, and all the soldiers on them were less than 20,000 men. ” Seeing that Roddy was not surprised by the look on his face, the king sighed: "I know you must be angry right now, but as an experienced army commander, I believe you must understand our troubles in doing this."
Your Majesty also said that I believe Your Excellency will be able to understand our approach. ” "What are you talking about, Your Majesty," the muscles in Roddy's eyes jumped suddenly.
The king sighed, and suddenly a white light appeared on his body, and under that light, the muscles of his face gradually changed, and his body seemed to be wrapped in that light, and his appearance changed in an instant "You're you" Roddy gritted his teeth, "You're the leader of the Magic Guild, Master Sith I've seen you" The Sith's old face showed a little apology: "I'm sorry, in order to convince others that this fleet is a real offensive force, I have to pretend to be a king and board with you, so I have to use Transfiguration to transform into the appearance of a king." ” Roddy sneered: "Very good, very good" He stared at the Sith and said hatefully: "Then why involve me again Since our fleet is bait anyway, then why do you have to involve me in this plan" Sith's face became serious, and he said in a deep voice, "Because we really need you."
In fact, we can't do without you in this operation. ” His expression suddenly became very strange: "Roddy, do you really think.
The kingdom of Sauron cares very much about the ironwood resources of the dwarves, and after conquering the territory of the dwarves, maybe we can really master this precious resource and command the many kingdoms on the Roland continent from now on.
But is this reason alone enough for us to risk this war?"
Roddy's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered the conversation he had had with Seth in the palace a few days before his departure.
