After talking to Jenn, Oldman had already decided to start an army before the spring blossoms to swallow as much territory as possible under the Soros family. Of course, before that, he had also tried through Nadia and the Three Great Temples, and the conclusions he came to made Oldman very happy. The Temple of the True Eye has pledged to assist them in maintaining law and order in the occupied territories, and the Temple of War has pledged to mobilize a Paladin Order to assist them in their attack, while also taking on the responsibility of training these "Free Salvation Forces". Since the Emerald Temple was just making soy sauce, it didn't mean to meddle in things, but said that he would also assist Oldman in dealing with the wounded and sick in the rear as much as possible.

It was only at this time that Oldman was convinced that Jenn was right, and that the Three Great Temples wished he could get more territory instead of tossing around in the three-third of an acre of land in Khalkhaland. As James said, a country needs land, population, and economy. What's the use of coming to Khalkhalan, a barren place where birds don't? To put it mildly, even if the Northern Alliance finally comes in, people still don't want this place! Barren and chaotic, there is nothing good, and there is a mob living in it. The Templar Order, if you want to take care of it, you can do it, and we'll be beaten with meat buns......... This bun is still vegetarian.

Jenn was also well aware of this, so he asked Oldman to swim up the Emerald River and take down Parks, the Golden Valley, and the Pegasus Plains. This is the Golden Belt controlled by the Soros family, Parkes is located next to the Emerald River, the largest commercial and trade center in the entire Skar Federation, the Golden Valley is the second largest iron ore producer in the Skar Federation, and it is also the weapons processing and casting center of the Skar Federation. Pegasus Plains is not only rich in water and grass. And it is also the first granary of the Eagle Plateau, in addition to that. It also produces some of the best horses on the Eagle Plateau.

It can be said that if you can occupy these three places. Then the "National Salvation Free Army" wants to have food, people, money, weapons, and weapons, and they are not afraid of anything!

In addition, in Jenn's plan, he chose these places, more importantly, because they were relatively easy to control. You must know that this is the central industry of the Soros family, but it is also the most ruthless place in this north-south confrontation. As the saying goes. From thrift to luxury, from luxury to simplicity difficult. The level of economic development in these places is relatively high, and the people are relatively wealthy. Like the poor in Khalkhaland, they should drop their pants, and they are not willing to resist unless they are about to starve to death. However, if these "economically developed areas" are replaced, as soon as their money is moved, I am afraid that those civilians will "rise up".

As long as Oldman can assure them that they will resume their daily lives after the occupation of these areas, then these people will be suspended for a while. Not only that, but according to Jenn's analysis, these people are actually the easiest to work with. Because they have their own assets, when Oldman first occupied their area, these people must have thought that the strong dragon would not overwhelm the snake, and those who had a little money were confident in themselves. Maybe it seems to them. This "Free Army for National Salvation" is still an object that can be used. They could have pretended to be grandchildren in the rear, and then waited for the Free Salvation Army and the Soros family to fight to the death, in case they won the war. Doesn't the Free Salvation Army still need the help of these local snakes? In the past, the Soros family was powerful, and they could only endure it. Now the Soros family is finished. These "National Salvation and Free Army" have no backstage, just a mob. I pretended to be my grandson in the early stage, and when everything settled down, I would make a deal with them, and then I would be power--well, although I was pressed by the Templar Order, I was still in charge of my own house, right?

And Jenn's suggestion is to let them pretend to be grandsons in the early stage, and suppress them when they want to get up. These people are all people with families and industries, and as long as the "National Salvation and Free Army" finds a few jumpers to suppress them and confiscate their land and property, these people will definitely wilt. Because the Free Salvation Army is backed by the Templar Order, and in the absence of a higher ruler and the moral high ground, the Free Salvation Army will be supported in whatever it does.

Especially those paladins who fight evil that is called a zeal. Most of the rich people in these places are not clean, and those who jump high must have more problems inside. When the time comes, the "National Salvation Free Army" will directly waive the banner of the moral high ground and say that they will seize the property of those guys and distribute it to civilians to achieve fair distribution, and the temple may even raise its hands to welcome it!

As long as you slap a few of the least long-eyed, and then appease the others, then these places are easier to rule than other regions. If it's a mundane ruler, then maybe these guys will do something. But behind the "National Salvation and Free Army" is the temple, which belongs to the real "heaven to hear" -- your little money is not trying to buy the gods, right?

If that was said, the paladins had to kill them.

Compared with these places, other places are much worse, and now those places are tossed by Soros and Khalkhaland. If these places are taken down, then the "Free Salvation Army" will not have the money or the ability to deal with the troubles of those guys. And those people are barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, maybe they will take this opportunity to fight, and if they succeed, they will be able to mix up a good position of power. If you fail, it's a big deal, and it's no different from hanging now, isn't it? In the face of these poor and hard bones, the "Free Salvation Army" has nowhere to start, and it is difficult to occupy the moral high ground -- you can't do anything to a group of civilians who have no place to live, do you want the support of the Templar Order?

Oldman was also very difficult about Jenn's plan, and in good conscience, he actually preferred to liberate the civilians first. But from a practical point of view, he also understands that the other party's worries are not unreasonable. Oldman was the captain of the militia before this, and he didn't know anything about things at the aristocratic level, and disputes between civilians were not dealt with. Although it is as if all of them were victims of oppression and exploitation by ordinary people and slaves, Oldman also knew that some people could really do anything when they were poor and crazy............

But because of this, he is also as good as he is, following Jenn's advice. Instead of looking for the paladins of Nadia, he went to the bishop in charge of the temple. Because Jenn knows it well. In this kind of thing, paladins are all brainless. People like Nadia must have thought of liberating the suffering people first, and as for the wealthy people, it was the original sin in the eyes of the paladins. What to do, how to go!

But the problem is that the "National Salvation Free Army" has no money, and instead of getting money from high-income territory, it has to go to poor rural areas to spend money, which no one wants to do except fools. Compared to the dead-headed paladins, the bishops of the temple are obviously much more enlightened, although they also believe in the doctrine, but they are responsible for handling these internal affairs in the temple. Deal with all sides a little more. Therefore, it is better to understand what compromise is, and the Templar Order has not failed to investigate the details of the "Free Army of National Salvation", knowing that they are really poor and white, although there is a mysterious force behind them who provides them with materials and money, but it is only enough for the other party. It seems that the mysterious gold lord obviously does not intend to expand the meaning. And they are also worried that the other party will take advantage of this opportunity to control this motley army. Now hearing Oldman's statement, these bishops immediately nodded in support, in their opinion, if the "Free Salvation Army" had its own territory, money and equipment. Then you don't have to be controlled by others, they will be easier to handle.

Just as Oldman began to collect troops and prepare to march according to Jenn's plan, a piece of news suddenly reached his ears.

"An army of half-elves has appeared in the Khalkaland region?"

Jenn leaned back in his chair. He looked at the information in his hand with a smile, but he shook his head in his heart. He knew the nobles wouldn't stop there, but Jenn swore he didn't expect them to be so stupid......... Nima just got a crowd of people to come. I also want to find a half-elf, which is not afraid that I will not take the bait! Are you insulting my IQ?!

"Yes."

But Oldman clearly doesn't think so. His brow furrowed, looking worried.

"I've asked the Bishop of the Emerald Temple. The other party didn't know about such an army, and it didn't look like they were mercenaries. I don't know what they're coming from, but the half-elves have been roaming around Fukat for a long time, and I'm worried......... They don't come well. ”

It's no wonder that Oldman has such concerns, it is really that the place of Fukat is too important for the current "Free Salvation Army", it is the granary of Khalkalan, and it is winter again, a group of unidentified half-elves roaming there, and the emerald temple knows nothing about it, and it is obvious that there is something wrong.

"I'll see for myself what's going on."

Although he scolded this group of damned nobles in his heart that even if he was conspiring, he would become a stupid pig if he was so stupid, but the other party finally sent the drama, and Jenn had to beat the snake with the stick after thinking about it, of course, he couldn't go too far, lest it seem like he would really become a stupid pig.

"I think you also know that most half-elves don't really like to deal with humans, maybe this is a half-elf mercenary, and it's really hard for ordinary people to deal with."

Jenn is not wrong to say this, half-elves are the product of humans and elves, but among them, love is only a small part. It's more that humans covet the beauty of elves, and then they have these children. Because elves respect life, they will give birth to children who are not pregnant with their beloved.

But because of this, these half-elves have an awkward position in the world of humans and elves. Humans don't like these "non-purebloods", and elves don't like it even more. So most of the half-elves end up in groups and wander around, hiding in small groups, or rallying as mercenaries. It's rare to see half-elves living in human cities, and Aina, for example, has been living in an adventure party all along.

Because of this innate attribute, most half-elves are hostile to both humans and elves, and they rarely communicate with people outside of half-elves. Oldman was clearly aware of this, though nominally, he could also ask the Emerald Temple for help. However, Oldman is now more than just a militia leader, and knows that if he relies on the temple alone, he and others will only work for the Templar Order in the future. So hearing Jenn's words, Oldman hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

"Okay, I'll leave this to you, James."

"Don't worry."

Hearing Oldman's words, Jenn also quickly answered. But he didn't feel good at all at the moment.

It's not surprising that when you find out that the other party is luring you into a clumsy trick, and you not only have to get in, but you also have to do everything possible to prove that "it's not that we don't work hard, but that the enemy is too cunning............... That's a hassle!

Isn't there a reliable conspirator in the Soros family?

At this time, Jenn could only look at the sky speechlessly. (To be continued......)
