"Gentlemen, I believe you are also surprised why I answered the request of the Yates empire." Linton looked down and said with a smile, "everybody Don't you want to do something extraordinary? "
"Extraordinary feats?" Everyone was stunned again, and then some people suddenly thought of something. Yes, the implication is obvious. After a little deliberation, many people suddenly understand Linton's goal.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what is the relationship between the Yates Empire and our holy empire of Ilan? It's a feud, a deadly enemy. They want to help me ascend the throne? I believe everyone should be able to understand each other's purpose. " Linton said, "if you let them really succeed, you can imagine what will become. Here I can reveal to you the conditions of each other, that is, the land of the north."
"What?" All the nobles were shocked again. The land of the north is not their fiefdom? Of course, there is no doubt about this, because the boundary between the Yates Empire and the holy empire of Ilan is to the north, and the other side has always coveted this territory.
Linton said this, of course, because these nobles below are basically northern nobles, and they are extremely hostile to the Yates empire. The Yates empire was really eager for the land in the north. As mentioned before, the battle took place on this land 20 years ago. Even the Yetis Empire occupied the area near the Heihe River, which is where they are now.
It can be said that the Yates Empire and the holy empire of Ilan have fought too many wars. It can be said that every inch of the land in the north is soaked with the blood of the soldiers of the two countries. If we want to say that the people who hate the Yates Empire most in the Empire, it is the northern aristocrats. This hatred can not be solved in a word.
What Linton said really said to them. Originally, they hated the Yates empire. Now Linton is completely in their position, scolding the Yates Empire and defending their interests. This really makes them feel as if they are speaking with a Ming lord or a Ming Lord who helps them speak to the northerners.
At this time, Linton continued to say: "everyone, I believe you also know my situation. Although many people support me, there are still many people who are still stubborn and believe in the two evil daughters who killed their father. My goal is not to throw the empire into chaos. It will allow other countries to take advantage of it. You can see the situation of the Yates empire. My goal is only the two evil women, so I hope to tell those who are still supporting them and let them see who is the real master of this country. And I think this opportunity has come now. "
"Do you mean..." Everyone seems to have thought of Linton's meaning.
"Yes, my target is the troops of the Yates empire." "As things stand, they will come and join us in four days, and I promised them, but my purpose is to send these people to hell," Linton said
As expected, most people have already thought of it. However, they are still surprised and happy and a little flustered when they hear Linton's words. The voice below rose again, and many nobles began to discuss in a low voice.
"Everyone, be quiet and listen to me." Linton said, "I know what you are worried about. The enemy's troops are at least 100000, and we now add up to about 20000 troops. The enemy is five times more than us. I know that we are all brave fighters, but the gap is still too big. But everybody, the enemy is totally unprepared for us. We have four days to prepare for the ambush. What's more, I have a secret reinforcements. "
"Secret reinforcements? What is that? " Everyone asked curiously.
"Please rest assured that this matter can not be exposed at present, please understand. But let's think about it. If I don't have the confidence to win, will I do so? In this battle, I will lead my troops to defeat the losers of the Yates empire. Can you lend me your strength, gentlemen Said Linton, raising his hand.
The nobles below immediately calculated. They all understood what Linton thought. Now Thomas Heihe was just an illegitimate son and claimed the throne. That's exactly what happened. But if we could defeat the 100000 troops of the Yates Empire, it would be totally different. If this thing is really successful, the illegitimate son will immediately become a great hero of the Empire. When the time comes, he will wave his hand and respond to everything. It seems that it is natural to inherit the throne.
At this time, it seems to be totally irrational to fight against the Yates empire. After all, you might have 100000 reinforcements to help you ascend the throne, but if you think about it carefully, it will benefit you more, especially in terms of reputation. Besides, if the Empire wants to take advantage of the Imperial Army, what should they do if they don't really want to help the Empire? No one knows what's going to happen, right? So Linton's plan doesn't sound like a good deal. It's actually the best option.
Well, for them, first of all, the people in the Yates empire are really hateful. All of them are really itchy. Of course, they want to kill these guys. Secondly, their interests have been involved. What the Yates empire is looking at is their northern territory, that is their fiefdom. Do they care? What's more, if Linton really took the throne with the help of the forces of the Yates Empire, what were they? They are all ready to be ministers from the dragon."I will!" Suddenly, a noble man called out in front of him
"I will, I will fight for your majesty!"
"I will! Long live your majesty
More and more nobles understood, and their shouts gradually became the slogan of "long live your majesty". Obviously, Linton's words directly absorbed the hearts of all the nobles present. They decided to fight for the troops of Linton and 100000 yetes empire.
The next thing, of course, is to prepare for the war. The first step is to eliminate all the spies here.
As I said before, the Yates Empire has done a good job in infiltrating the territory of the holy empire of Ilan, while the northern land is the boundary they have always looked upon, and the natural penetration is very thorough. It is estimated that there are many enemy spies among the noble soldiers gathered here now, and even some nobles may be spies of the other party. Of course, this should be cleaned up immediately.
It sounds like a lot of trouble, but it's not a problem for Linton because it's really easy to get the other party's spy list. Starting from the guy temeller, the other party followed the prince Marcus to come here. Originally, the spies here received them. From the spies he knew, he could easily know the list of the whole spy network step by step.
Now the nobles here have basically taken Linton's orders, so they naturally follow Linton's orders. Although it's a little strange that Linton got the spy list, it's not easy for these trained spies to pry their mouths open, but after all, it's also a matter of their own lives. If the plan fails, they will be flooded by 100000 troops No, so I'd rather kill them by mistake. They didn't care. Anyway, they were very cooperative and secretly disposed of all the people in the list.
Only the nobles who took the lead in the plan knew about the plan. Until they began to gather troops, the soldiers below felt that they were going to go to the imperial capital. But some soldiers are strange. After all, emperors are in the south. They seem to be walking north. However, there are not many soldiers who are really serious. They are just soldiers. How to walk is considered by the people above. Maybe they should take a route.
By this time, the third day had come, and Linton's troops had reached about 25000. Yes, there were some nobles who came to join in these days, who supported Thomas Heihe. Of course, they were directly integrated by Linton. At this time, they also received information from the Yates empire.
The information of the Yates Empire army was sent by the opposite side himself. The general from the opposite side sent several men to inform tmiler that their army had assembled and set out. At this time, they had crossed the border and arrived in the territory of the holy empire of Ilan. According to the speed of the March, it was estimated that they would join them tomorrow.
Naturally, Linton happily accepted the information they gave, and asked them about the route of their march, the situation of the troops and so on, and then all these messengers were pulled out and hanged. Of course, other nobles also saw it, but it's nothing strange. On the contrary, it shows that the Yates Empire hasn't found out their plan yet. It can be done.
After solving these messengers, Linton directly pulled up his troops and began to march north. Linton and other nobles had already worked out a lot of decisive battle places. Now they have known the marching route of the other side, and the final location has been determined.
The location of the ambush was near a valley on the Bank of the Heihe River. There is a bridge in the valley, which is the largest bridge on the Heihe River, connecting the north and the south. This bridge is the simplest way for the army to cross the Heihe River. The troops of the opposite yetes Empire chose this road. It can be seen that there is no guard on the other side. What they choose is the most easily guessed route.
The location of the ambush is just perfect. It's not only on the riverside, but also on the surrounding terrain of the valley. It's very convenient to hide the troops. And Linton, with his troops, came here all night and began to lay an ambush.
