42. Prepare for war


The lake washed over the pebbles on the shore, and the white waves kept rushing up from the lake, and slowly disappeared in the cracks of the pebbles, leaving only a faint wet mark on the round stones, and the damp and cold lake wind seemed to blow into the cracks of the bones, making me want to lie in front of the fireplace and roast the fire.I quietly asked Ying Li: Is it that every spring, Prince James holds a picnic party similar to afternoon tea on the shore of Weiyang Lake?

Ying Li pulled on his woollen shawl and said to me with a smile: Don't always ask such embarrassing questions, in fact, you can wear a little more.The southeast monsoon from the Endless Sea brings a lot of rain to the plains at the foot of the Majaro Mountains, and the abundant rainfall here ensures that the farmers on the blazing plains harvest their crops throughout the year, and also makes the spring here earlier than elsewhere.It's just that in this season of early spring, the lake is not a good place to drink tea, and watching the high-ranking people in the South Wind Legion, the Prince of Wales, and the big and small lords who seek some benefits around him wear gorgeous aristocratic dresses, sit around the square table while drinking warm milk tea in the cold wind, and determine the next strategic goal in casual conversation, this kind of painful and hopeful taste really can't be said how wonderful it is.The melting snow and ice on the summit of Majaro Mountain converge into rivers that converge from all directions to Weiyang Lake, which is able to maintain a stable water line all year round, mainly because there is a culvert on the south bank of the lake that connects to the outside of the mountain.After entering the abundant summer, a huge whirlpool will be formed at the entrance of the underground culvert, and a fence and a large hole fishing net will be set at the entrance of the culvert to prevent people and animals from accidentally falling into the lake and being sucked into the culvert by the huge suction force of the whirlpool.Listening to the rumbling sound of the water, I knew how big the difference between the water level of the culvert and Weiyang Lake was, and I wanted to go to the overflow embankment next to the culvert to have a look, but I couldn't help but think about it.For a water magician, there are not many places more comfortable than the lake, where there are a large number of water elementals, and if you are sensitive enough, you will know that there is a slowly rotating magic vortex around your body, and at this time, the magic vortex is full of rich water elements, and they are constantly pouring into my body.Prince James sat in the master's seat, the Prince of Wales sat on his left hand, the Prince of Wales was next to Le Die, the middle-aged housekeeper brought me and Ying Li over, sure enough, there were still two vacant seats left next to Le Die, I motioned for Ying Li to sit in first, and then sit on the chair next to her.To the right of Prince James sat a number of noble lords, all of whom looked at me and Win Li when they saw us coming, almost all of them wearing the title of Marquis of the First Class, and they all looked in good spirits.The reason why these noble lords are able to sit here is because they currently belong to the same interest group as the Legion of the Southwind and the Constructed Knights of the Prince of Wales.During the plane war, the various forces cooperate with each other to form alliances, and each big lord will have his own private Constructed Knights, these Constructed Knights are usually stationed in the lords' territories, only after the outbreak of the Plane War, the Dark Legion of the Abyss Prison invaded many rich planes of the Green Empire, and at the beginning, these lords still commanded their armies to fight separately, until the situation deteriorated to the point of being out of control, Only then did the various lords think of uniting to defend against the forces of the Dark Legion of the Abyss.It was also at this time that a large number of symbioses of dimensional war interests were derived.In the beginning, many small lords began to actively attach themselves to the big lords of these planes in order to protect their territories from the invasion of the dark forces, and they became the main combat force in these planes to resist the dark forces of the abyss.However, as the plane war gradually deteriorated, many small lords saw that the momentum was not good, so they withdrew from some of the planes that were in danger, they retained their strength, and then began to run to the imperial capital to watch the situation.Duke Ryan returned to the Grimm Imperial Capital last summer to take advantage of the victory of the Prince of Wales in the Battle of Kempato in the Warsaw Plane, and wanted to invite some small lords with Constructed Knights to go to the Warsaw Plane to open up a new situation, but unfortunately due to the disgrace of the Arya incident, he was unable to bring any of the Constructed Knights back to the Warsaw Plane, and the Warsaw Plane fell into crisis again because of this.As the supreme commander of the South Wind Legion, there is no shortage of such small lords with private armies around Prince James, and many lords want to take the big ship of Prince James in every possible way, just to win several battles during the plane war, and victory means that a lot of territory and merit will be gained.The Prince of Wales is one of the two generals who are most favored by the people of the imperial capital in the younger generation of the imperial capital, in addition to the Prince of Wales, another young general is the first successor of the Mo family, the Mo family's eldest young Mo Xiang.Because of this, some lords also wanted to follow the Prince of Wales and participate in some battles, even if it was a little soup.Of course, the lords who can sit at the table with Prince James and drink afternoon tea at this moment are not those small lords who want to take a ride, they are qualified to sit here and chat with Prince James, discuss the next strategic goals, and jointly pursue the victory of the plane war, which means that they are also big lords with a certain strength, holding at least one or several Constructed Knights in their hands.These people will not easily put their Constructed Knights in danger, but they like to follow the victory of a certain battle to continuously expand the results of victory.It cannot be said that these lords are a group of outright speculators, and they should not be belittled too much, at least they are willing to take risks with their knights, and compared to them, the lords who will do nothing and avoid the war are the ones who need to be blamed the most.The senior generals of the Southwind Legion sat at the end of the table, and I didn't know most of them except for Count Donald, but they were all wearing the uniforms of the Southwind Legion, with a row of high-ranking badges pinned to their chests, so that people could recognize their origin at a glance.Prince James nodded at us when he saw me and Ying Li rushing over, and then said to the senior generals of the South Wind Legion around him: "Speaking of which, Jijia is probably the first time to attend our party, and you usually like to follow magic newspapers, you should all know Jijia!"

”In this year, if the Prince of Wales and Mo Xiang have been frequently appearing in the magic newspaper with a positive image, then I have purely appeared in the magic newspaper with a negative image, and when everyone first knew me in the magic newspaper, it was because I was a magician and robbed a woman with a duke, and this crazy act of using my mantis arm as a car left a deep impression on me in the eyes of many people.Then I offended William, a young family member in the Mo family, William is a young dragon blood mage, although he is not the heir to the family, but he is also one of the most promising young people in the Mo family, and he is considered to be the key training object of the family, but at the end of the semester last summer, I beat William severely on the rooftop of the teaching building of the Royal Academy of Magic, which means that before I have a certain strength, The door of the Mo family is forever closed to me.A lot of things happened in this year, including the fact that I had a grudge with all the masters in the imperial capital because of a magic pattern of life, and after a coming-of-age ceremony, I married His Royal Highness Qige and Princess Yingli overnight, and many people in the imperial capital speculated that the day the Prince of Wales returned from the battlefield with the Knights was the day my life was completely banished, but these people's illusions were shattered.With so many things coming together, it's hard for the noble lords who like to read the magical newspapers of the imperial capital on weekdays not to know me.Hearing Prince James say this, the senior generals of the South Wind Legion burst into laughter, and the atmosphere became slightly lively.The Prince of Wales also took the opportunity to nod slightly to me.This time Prince James openly let me appear at such a party, and also to show everyone that he had officially accepted me.Many lords would restrain the contempt in their eyes when they looked at me, but these lords had no intention of talking to me, and their eyes were not even willing to stay on me, and they chatted with the Prince of Wales from time to time, and they seemed cautious when they spoke, for fear that something wrong might irritate the young prince.After all, the Prince of Wales recently won another victory on the Rocky plane, and Wales' eyes fell on the Rocky plane, and since there was one victory, then there would be a second.The lords obviously want a piece of the pie in the Lochky plane, and at this time, I am afraid that no one wants to anger the Prince of Wales, and even if they snub me, I don't want to be hated by the Prince of Wales.I sat leisurely on the chair, saw the fragrant scones on the square table, so I took a piece of it, this kind of scones tasted very light, and there was a unique wheat flavor under careful chewing, Le Die saw that I ate very sweet, and also took a piece curiously, but she just took a bite, and refused to continue eating, and there was no way to throw the scones away like this, as long as she stuffed it to the maid standing behind.Count Donald happened to be sitting across from me, and when he saw me coming, he nodded slightly to me, and then said quietly: "The quality of those recent shipments is very good, even in North Duisburg, these are first-class. ”I smiled humbly and asked Earl Donald, "Has the next batch of purchases been decided on the Legion's side?"

”"Of course there is, but now it is a military secret, and it is not convenient to disclose it."

Count Donald said to me.I nodded slightly in understanding.Donald then said to me, "Otherwise, you will join our Nanrist Legion by the way, and you will know our next plan of action at that time." ”In his opinion, Prince James brought me to the crowd in this way to show that they had accepted me, so it was not difficult to place me in the Southwind Legion.When he saw that I was hesitant, he thought I was too embarrassed to speak to Prince James, and he said to me, "If you feel embarrassed to mention this matter to His Highness, I will go and tell him." ”I didn't have any idea about the Legion of the South Wind, so I said to Earl Conrad: "Oh, let's forget this for the time being, after all, I came out of the North, and I promised the Grand Duke of Jingyue in Sloit Province that I would join the Legion of the North Wind after graduation." ”Donald was surprised that I had such a choice, but when I said that, he could only express understanding.Sitting beside me was a burly noble lord, the light leather armor he wore in a style that suggested that he might well have come to the western provinces of the Grimm Empire, and he showed great curiosity about me, constantly turning his head to look at me.At this time, I heard Prince James talk about me again: "Recently, Jijia went to the Yero plane with Ying Li and Le Die. ”One of the senior officers of the South Wind Legion said: "We have heard of this, and it has been almost a month since Reze and Jason went to the Hierro plane, but unfortunately there has been no news back. ”"The matter of the Hiero plane is over for the time being, and it won't be long before they will return from the Hiero plane."

Prince James said with relief.Hearing Prince James say this, everyone in the South Wind Legion breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that Count Reeds's interpersonal relationship in the South Wind Legion is quite good."

A few of them came back with the Spider-Man Overseer's head this time," Prince James continued.Later, when they said something, I was a little absent-minded and didn't pay attention to it.Le Die leaned slightly, crossed over to Ying Li, poked her head over and whispered to me, "Ji Jia, you can help me check Jasmine's injury later." ”I nodded slightly.Subsequently, those noble lords shifted the topic to the Loki plane, it is said that the Nakma people over there are also very rampant, and the next strategic target of the Prince of Wales is the Lochky plane, so these nobles proposed to the Prince of Wales in a roundabout way, preparing to bring their own Constructed Knights to the Loche plane to get a piece of the pie.At this time, the Prince of Wales also took out a map of the distribution of the rooms in the Rocky plane, and directly began to analyze the distribution of the Nakma army.When the lords asked Prince James if the Legion of Southwind had any plans to go to the Loche plane.I heard Prince James personally say that the strategic focus of the South Wind Legion will be shifted to the Lochi plane, and he wants to use the waters, lakes and rivers of the Loch plane to divide the Nakma forces, and then concentrate the firepower to break them one by one, not only that, the last batch of military supplies on the side of the South Wind Legion has been all in place, and the vanguard of the Knights will be ready to set off within two days.When the lords got the news, they began to whisper.Apparently they were all very interested in sending troops to conquer the Lochi plane, and then the lords began to ask the Prince of Wales how the material warehouse behind the Nakma people had managed to escape with their whole body.At this time, the Prince of Wales gave me a faint look, but did not explain it to the lords
