Chapter 67: Two Strategists

When Eleanor found Asker, he was watching Medea and Sheila play chess.

"Isn't that right?" Medea wondered, "How could I be a mind-reading person to be you killed?" ”

"Playing chess relies on brain power, not mind reading." Sheila played with the chess pieces and said, "Even if you can predict my next few moves, you don't know how to make a move that can affect the market after dozens of moves." ”

"You mean I'm not as brainpowerful as yours?" Medea sneered.

"I didn't say that." Sheila said calmly, "It's just Medea, are you relying too much on your abilities?" Thinking is humanity's most precious asset. ”

"Captain!" Eleanor ran to Asker's side, repeated her father's question, and finally asked:

"So what do you think? Did the Wolfs collude with the Hussites in the principality? ”

"I don't know." Asker said.

"There's something you don't know?" Eleanor was shocked.

"Why don't you find a few people with good brains and ask." "Like Medea and Sheila on our team. ”

The two girls were cleaning up the chessboard and chess pieces on the table, and when Sheila heard this, she said:

"It depends on what you mean by 'collusion.'"

"Ugh." Eleanor hesitated.

"If you talk about private contact, it's 'collusion.'" Sheila said, "There must be." The Hussites are mainly the Scolabos of Bohemia, Bavaria, and Carinthia, and in the present hostile situation, the Wolf family will certainly try to reach out to these Hussites in the hope that they will launch a rebellion in order to drag down and deplete the strength of your Weissbach family. ”

"However, if a 'covenant rebellion' is a 'collusion', it is not necessarily. Although the Hussites have expanded rapidly among the poor at the bottom since their leader Hus was executed by the Holy See, the biggest problem is that there is a lack of a supreme leader with such prestige as Hussite to integrate the current scattered Hussite forces. ”

"An organization that is not fully integrated is like an open fist that is not lethal enough. In this case, even if the Wolf family wants to incite the Hussites in the principality, they may lack direct access to them, and it is more likely that they will only buy some small internal leaders in private. And a rebellion like this cannot be launched without accumulating enough strength. ”

"I'll add." After Sheila finished analyzing, Medea also smiled and said, "I don't think the Wolf family has reached any agreement with the Hussites at all. ”

"The reason is simple. Within half a month of our arrival, the Hussites had launched a number of attacks on the streets**, and even openly attacked you and the regimental commander. ”

"This has attracted the attention of your family, but it is contrary to the 'rebellion' itself. As Sheila said, if the Hussites want to rise to prominence, they must first integrate the many forces within them. ”

"If they are integrated and plan a rebellion with the Wolf family, then they should not take the initiative to launch an attack on the streets before the rebellion, because that will only startle the snake and cause you to be on high alert for no reason."

"Medea, do you think these attacks ......," Sheila asked with a slight frown, "was it premeditated, or did it happen naturally?" Do you feel malice? ”

"Premeditated, of course." Medea sneered, "Just last night, Asker, weren't you assassinated by a Hussite radical?" ”

"Then I went to the Guards prison and found a few Hussites who had been arrested to read their minds, and found out that they had indeed taken to the streets to attack at the instigation of an internal leader."

"That is." Sheila groaned, "Someone is deliberately muddying the waters behind their backs. ”

"An attempt to alert the Weissbach family." Medea added, "Coupled with the 'coincidental' arrival of the Wolf family, it is clear that it is deliberately intended to make Eleanor, your father, suspect that the Wolf family and the Hussites have colluded. ”

"If the Duke of Bavaria had misunderstood this line of thought, he would have chosen to purge the Hussites in the city before the official war with the Wolf family, so as to avoid a fire in the backyard during the war." Sheila said, "If that's what the man behind it is for......

"In other words, it is the other way around, using your official pressure to force the Hussites in the principality to unite." She quickly came to the conclusion that "perhaps they didn't trust each other and didn't have the guts to rebel, but the official purge began, forcing them to put aside their prejudices and unite." ”

"In the process, as the pressure of the purge increases, the radicalism within the Hussites will also rise, and even if there is no premeditated rebellion, there will be one after another, and there will be civil strife scattered throughout the country, which will make you overwhelmed and lose sight of the other."

Eleanor followed their train of thought, and immediately realized the treacherous waves behind these **.

In other words, if the method of the eldest brother Ludwig is really followed, then it will cause tension among the Hussites in the country, and if the people behind the scenes are the Wolf family, they will definitely add fuel to the flames and fan the flames within these Hussites, with the ultimate goal of forcing them to rebel collectively, so as to consume the power of the Weissbach family in advance.

No wonder his father told him to go back and think about it, that is, his father also realized this?

"So how do you deal with it?" Eleanor became distressed.

"Loose on the outside and tight on the inside, luring the snake out of the hole." Sheila said.

"Beggar-thy-neighbor leads to disaster." Medea said.

"What do you mean? Let's go into details. Eleanor was dazed.

"Don't search with great fanfare, secretly interrogate the prisoners, find out who is behind the scenes, and directly behead and capture." Sheila explained.

"Send people to neighboring Bohemia and provoke a conflict between the Hussites and the authorities." Medea said, "The Duchy of Bohemia was the stronghold of the Hussites, and in the event of a violent unrest there, and the Hussites believed that victory in the civil war was likely, they would inevitably send people from neighboring countries to relieve the pressure on Bavaria." ”

This ploy is also a bit poisonous...... Eleanor was a little speechless. She wasn't sure if her father's temperament would have used such a sinister strategy, but she didn't want to tell him about it.

Asker listened to the whole process next to him, and couldn't help but have a deeper understanding of the two girls:

Sheila and Medea are both types with lively brains and sharp minds, but there are subtle differences between them.

Sheila is accustomed to looking at the big picture and seeking victory with dignity, while Medea pays more attention to the details, likes to surprise and even fight for an advantage by any means.

If it is placed in the team, it is a good choice for Sheila to be the captain to set the strategic direction, and Medeas to be the vice captain to design specific tactics.
