Chapter 788: News of the Two Princesses

Lu Xi didn't have to guess to know that it must have been a letter from Karin and Artoria. However, he was curious as to why the letters from the two girls had been sent to Orucello.

"That little knight princess girl in Virgia led her troops to capture the Black Gate Fortress after you and the wind left, and arrived at Henas from the land direction. When she heard that you had disappeared, she was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, and she was ready to come to you with Sehireu and the others, but in the end she gave up. After all, she is the crown prince of Nord and the nominal supreme commander of the coalition forces now stationed in Henas...... "Orucello Dao."

"Supreme Commander-in-Chief? Artoria? It's not reliable, this ......"

"The Federation now has limited financial resources and has begun to withdraw the main forces of the expeditionary force to the country. At present, only a floating fleet of less than 10,000 army forces and ten small and medium-sized warships is left in the camp of the Henas coalition army. Major General Pascal commanded in unity. ”

"Huh? Does this name always feel a little immediate? Where have you heard of it? Lu Xi frowned and began to touch the lollipop.

"You bear child, how can your memory be worse than that of me, an old man in the twilight of my life?" Orucello sighed: "When you were the Imperial Historian of the Secret Journey and went to Auckland on a mission, wasn't she the highest official counselor of the Federal Embassy?" ”

"Oh, that mature brigadier sister!" Lu Xi finally suddenly realized: "I haven't seen you for two years, and I have been promoted to major general!" But is this reliable? Although my sister is a little dark-bellied, I always feel that she is a courtesan! ”

Orucello ignored him and continued, "On the other hand, the high elves of Twilight Island are similar, leaving behind 1,000 Silver Pegasus Knights, and the ground force is 3,000 cavalry and 15,000 infantry. The commander was Duke Metz Cyrus, the patriarch of the Antano family. Compared to them, the Nord army that entered the Henas Peninsula had exceeded 50,000 men. Not only is it the most powerful, but your little princess is the most noble person in the field, and the rest of the small countries are naturally unlikely to be in the limelight to grab this position. She was certainly the right choice. Orucello said, "Huh...... That's why I said that it is the Federation that has suffered the most losses, and it is the Federation that has contributed the most. But he lacks the strong appetite to swallow the fruits of victory in one bite. As a result, it turned out that the people who took the biggest advantage became Nords, how stupid and ironic. ”

"The Temperament of the Enods...... You won't take the opportunity to swallow Henas directly, will you? Lu Xi frowned, a little worried about Selena's country: "Although Artoria is here, she shouldn't do such a bad thing." ”

"An enclave, you can't swallow it even if you want to, and neither the High Elves nor the Federation will allow them to do so. With such a political balance, the nascent kingdom of the Blood Clan was able to survive instead. Of course, the Nords had completely occupied the Great Lakes. Having achieved absolute strategic superiority over Orgrimmar, and also extended their tentacles into the Black Earth Hills, Henas and even the Dragonclaw Peninsula, it can be said that they are the biggest victors in this necromantic war. ”

"Yes, although that ghost father teaser looks like a brainless puppet controlled by a dead daughter, his heart is dark, and there is a former university professor to give advice, how can he let go of this opportunity?" Lu Xi remembered Emperor Otto and Gilbert? Field Marshal Longheim. Although the latter had only met even once, he had a deep impression of the old fox friends.

"Auckland is fighting a civil war. There was no time to look north, and the orcs had been hit hard under the Black Mancheng City, that Otto the Great's mind was naturally alive, and he had already ordered the whole country to mobilize. The Marquis of Hector has gathered all the lords in the north and reorganized them into the Northern Route Army, with a total strength of more than 60,000. Follow the Great Atlas Mountains into the Great Wilderness as a countermeasure, and seek opportunities to destroy the enemy; And your little princess, as the commander of the coalition army, will unite the coalition forces of more than 100,000 people from all countries as the southern route to break through the Megatooth fortress between the Namoa Mountains and Henas. Attack the relatively rich territories south of Orgrimmar and cut off the Golden Horde's source of supply; As for Emperor Otto himself, he will command the main force of 200,000 to drive the expedition in person, with the Great Lakes region as the rear base, and will directly smash the Orgrimmar Golden Horde, forcing the orcs to fight a decisive battle with himself. If all goes well, the Nords should once again conquer the Orgrimmar moor, right? This is a feat comparable to that of the overlord of the year. Orucello's voice seemed a little strange, and he didn't sound particularly optimistic about the Nords' mighty war of annihilation.

He looked at Lu Xi's strange expression, and immediately smiled comfortingly: "Don't worry, although your little princess Artoria has little experience in commanding, she still has a lot of strong generals around her." She is the main general, and the lieutenant on the Nord side is her brother His Royal Highness Olivier......"

Getting more and more worried about the good felling?

"And Nord veteran Dalma? Count Ainfest, and Cortel? Rhett Hart, Kyle? Witteb and other fierce generals. ”

Lu Xi has heard of the reputation of these people. The Earl of Dalma, who is in his sixties, is a battle-hardened, experienced and well-established general, and is said to have a steady and heavy quality that most Nords do not have, and the latter are the famous two-flower red sticks that grew up in the tug-of-war between the Nords and the Orcs in the Great Lakes. Lu Xi finally felt a little relieved.

"In addition, Duke Macesellus, who commands the elven army, is a famous general in the world who became famous during the Qiming War. The Federal Commander-in-Chief, Major General Kovrona, is also quite an excellent commander...... Oh, don't look at me suspiciously, that girl has taken my classes before and I know what she's capable of. It's just because she and Russell are closer, so she was sent by the gate valve to put her in such a noble idle position. Now, let's make the most of it. Orucello laughed.

…… Hopefully, everything will really be as the old man said.

"Emperor Otto should not make the mistake of the overlord of the past, not only will he conquer Orgrimmar, but it is even possible to completely turn the orc race into a complete historical word, and the Federation will be inexplicably tied to his chariot."

“…… In short, the Federation was kidnapped and kidnapped. Looking at this pomp and circumstance of the rejuvenating division, I am already very relieved that there is no trouble going south to find Auckland. Looks like. In the eyes of Emperor Otto, even Auckland, which is fighting a civil war, must be more difficult to deal with than the orcs who are united. Being looked down upon like this must have hurt the 'Dragon's Heart' Longzath Khan. Lu Xike didn't think that the ghost father and daughter were not going to go south to Auckland because they didn't want to take advantage of others' sense of honor. Artoria would have been like this, but it was absolutely impossible for his father and brothers, and it was natural for a warrior to have a sense of honor and discipline. But if the commander of the army or even the head of state is too full of discipline, it will be very bad.

…… Woo, I'm getting more and more worried about Artoria.

Fortunately, there is no shortage of excellent strategists around this sister paper to assist her, and she is not a self-righteous person, as long as she is more careful when acting, there should be no problems, right? Probably......

"However, does our Federation still have the financial resources to maintain more than 10,000 troops to fight in the Orgrimmar Wasteland?"

"The Virgians say that they will provide a part of the military expenses, and they have gained a lot, and they want to take the opportunity to show off their rare trench strength. As for the rest of the military spending. And all the provisions were provided by the nations of the Black Earth Hills and the Dragonclaw Peninsula, and it is said that the nearby newborn kingdom of Henas would also produce a lot of blood. …… Well, we are liberators anyway, and we fought bloodily to protect their safety, and those who were liberated should also shed some blood. Orucello spread his hands and smiled sarcastically: "Anyway, the big men of the coalition take it for granted. ”

Well, it's really a setting with a sense of immediacy!

"Okay. Artoria is busy helping her family fight the war of annihilation, as long as she wins. Naturally, her prestige could not be shaken. Virginia's royal inheritance is no problem, and it can at least maintain its peak national power for hundreds of years. Lu Xi sighed, feeling that controlling his daughter to the point of Uncle Otto was already considered art: "In that case, shouldn't we also sell some arms to Artoria to help her succeed as soon as possible?" ”

"For the time being, such weapons will not be made available to the nations of mankind. Didn't we already make an appointment before? Orucello did not directly object, but showed a promotional smile: "If you sell it to that little princess, do you have to sell it to another one in order not to favor one over the other?" ”

"Well...... be honest, sell Artoria that full of temperamental natural stays. Lu Xi wasn't worried at all, but selling it to Karin, the ambitious world's No. 1 princess, would be a bit of a drumming in his heart.

"What's more, our production capacity is also insufficient, so far, even the original plan of 50,000 dwarven new army is not enough, and now we have this business of drow elves...... And before we came, another little princess of yours sent a messenger to the door, and said that she had received your promise to provide her with new weapons or something. Orucello sighed and stared at Lu Xi with hatred, as if to say, "Sooner or later, your kid will die at the hands of a woman." ”

“…… Well, that's what she said, but I didn't say yes on the spot! Lu Xi said: "But wasn't the arsenal built in Uncle Jin Li's secret abandoned mine?" How could her messenger come to her door? ”

"Although the development of new weapons is carried out in secret, since it has been decided to build a new dwarven army of 50,000 people, of course, it is impossible to hide it from the dwarven lords of Hearthcastle. Many of them have been favored by Her Majesty Estelle in the past, and they have maintained a very close relationship with your little princess for a long time. "The reason why Her Highness Catalina was able to quickly build a new army with her own military academy graduates as a team is that in addition to the fact that these orphans are all well-trained and excellent officers, the weapons provided to her by the dwarves for a long time also play a decisive role. She doesn't know where our arsenal is, but at least she'll know we're building new weapons, and she'll know right away how much you weigh in it. This is how her messenger came to the Shining Cave, and in addition to asking for a batch of weapons, he also brought you a handwritten letter. ”

Orucello sighed: "Fortunately, although this princess can realize the powerful power of the guiding weapon, after all, she has not seen its power with her own eyes, and she has no concept of its tactics and tactics, and of course, she does not know that we have developed several models of guiding weapons according to the needs of different battlefields." So just asking for 500 pistols, I think I'm going to equip my own guards. ”

"That's already pretty good, okay? Before the advent of individual automatic weapons, pistols were more convenient and suitable weapons than bulky rifles in street fighting, stronghold seizures, close-quarters combat, and so on. Is that lawless girl preparing to riot and attack Yongchen Palace? Well, it looks like she's really attacking Yongchen Palace. ”

"We discussed it for a while, and felt that this demand would not affect the balance too much, so we first provided the three hundred pistols that had been produced in advance, which were originally intended to be distributed to the officers of the New Army, and from a human point of view, they might still be too heavy. Of course, their specific design is the same as your RX78, which is a single shot, and naturally the reload speed is much faster than that of a rifle. Of course, because it is a mass-produced type, the materials used are more popular, so the distribution of Qiyao Stone inside is not the same, and the power is slightly smaller, but it can definitely threaten the top strength. Orucello pointed to the black rose on Lu Xi's waist: "As for the bullet burst technology used by your current black rose, you can keep it for a little longer, and you don't need to be in such a hurry to use it for mass production." ”

Lu Xi agrees with this, but of course, the reason for agreeing is different from that of Orucello. The latter is considered from a broader perspective, while the former is just a bit of a small-scale peasant. He always felt that the experimental and customized types should be stronger than the mass production type, which was a bit of a taste of the protagonist's treatment.

"You're kind of giving Karin a lot of face, I thought you would just reject her." Lu Xi said with a smile.

“…… There will always be some differences between people and relatives. Orucello looked at Lu Xi with some words and stops, his eyes became more and more weird, and then patted him on the shoulder: "Young man, if possible, let's take a look at it or see more, if the child wants to grow up healthy and energetic, in fact, the family affection on both sides is indispensable." ”

"As for the little princess of the Nords...... Don't worry, Xiao Luxi, we are open to business, but we are also excellent entrepreneurs with a sense of social responsibility. When Her Highness Artoria needs it, we will also deliver the right arms to her. (To be continued......)
