"Because the demons are very different from our human race in terms of body size and living habits, so far our intelligence officers have no way to know how big the territory of the demon clan is, how much population it is, and what is the attitude towards the human race on the Desolate Ancient Continent, and this group of guys has a very bad attitude towards the orc race.

"So far, there is only one known demon force, but it is said that on the other side of the Ancient Continent, that is, on the other side of the demon power, there is also a force between demons and humans in form, and the power of the two forces I conservatively estimate, if they are combined, they should have reached the Heavenly Dragon Empire, which has not yet come into contact with our Sunset Empire, because they also have powerful war beasts, and I estimate that this is a war beast that can reach the second in terms of comprehensive ability in addition to those ancient dragons, Because this war beast is the abyss demon clan of the demon clan. ”

"The Abyss Demon has been recorded in the ancient documents of the King Continent, and it is a creature that is slightly smaller than the Beamon Behemoth....... It's not the kind that our empire secretly cultivates, but the kind of Beamon giant beast of the orc clan, and the biggest advantage of this guy is that he not only has wings, but also has the same advanced intelligence as the ancient dragon, and what is even more terrifying is that they have thick and huge limbs, and can use weapons, the only weakness is that this guy's physical defense is obviously several grades lower than that of the Beamon giant beast and the dragon. And because of its huge body, it can only maintain low-altitude flight, so if our artillery hits it, the guy will definitely be killed or maimed. ”

"Speaking of the Abyss Demon Clan. In fact, it has to do with the only good news of all the information we have so far: the current state of the demon race. Overall, the current information of the Demon Clan gives me the feeling that there is only one word to describe it: chaos. ”

"The demons are not really a race. Rather, it is made up of about a hundred humanoid races of various shapes, some of them are as small as goblins, but some are like the Abyssal Demons, and they are not weak enough to fight the Elder Dragons. Speaking of which, you might think that the Demon Clan might be a huge joint force with various races as an individual like the Orcs, but the truth is even more confusing than that. ”

"The demon clan is somewhat similar to those city-state forces in the southeast of the continent, nominally mixed together but essentially the largest is only the city lord, while the demon clan is the largest is the lord, and only the lord-level demon can establish a city on a piece of land. Yes, there will only be one, and even if one liege annexes another, there will not be one more, because the captured city will be converted into a fortress. ”

"Lord-level demons will recruit demons of different forms to join the legions under their command to fight, so although there are hundreds of races in the demons, they are mixed together, and at present, although the intelligence department does not know how many lords there are in the demon clan, there are hundreds, in addition, although most of the demons in the legion have a strong physique and even surpass the orcs. But their fighting methods and weapons can only be compared to those of orcs........"

The sun never sets and is not afraid of the enemy, except that the army of the empire is imposing, and that is because every time the army of the empire does not fight an unknown enemy, a few days before the war engagement. Even a month earlier, the Empire's intelligence network across the continent would present information about the enemy to the commander of the Empire, allowing the legionnaires to predict the prophet.

But now. What the sun never sets is an unknown attitude, an unknown quantity, and an unknown logistics of an enemy........ Almost everything is an unknown enemy. The most important thing is that this enemy is unable to communicate and has a tyrannical and chaotic personality. In the face of the demon clan, the conventional intelligence means before the sun never sets are basically impossible to use, and the only thing that can be done is to resist head-on, but the question is what if you can't resist hard?

Today's empire that the sun never sets can no longer fight a big war without recuperation, and the so-called relying on the Twin Forts to establish a defense line to fight a protracted war is even worse, because this will definitely be discovered by the two empires in the distance, compared to the two empires that the sun never sets, although it can be regarded as a bone-wrenching, but the situation will definitely be much better than the sun never sets, if they tear the truce and jump again regardless of their faces, the empire's strategy in the Central Continent will be in vain.

"Lord Morse is very comprehensive, so I personally think we need a way to contain this group of crazy people." The sun never sets, the Minister of War and the Minister of Military Aircraft, Dante, stood up and expressed the voices of the army and the military department: "Our army is undergoing military reform, and it has entered a critical time, in this case, I think it is the most helpless decision to move troops to garrison the Twin Castles, and choosing to cooperate with Prince Saladin to attract the army of the demon clan in the far land of the empire is not a good choice, I think the best way to eliminate this hidden danger is to conduct a diplomatic expedition." ”

"Diplomatic expeditions? Lord Dante, Lord Morse has already said that the demon race is basically a race that cannot communicate, since it is no longer possible to communicate, why do we still need diplomatic expeditions? Orso, a high-ranking official from the sun never set, raised his own questions, after all, the purpose of Dante's diplomatic expedition was obviously to go to the direction of the demon clan in the Ancient Continent, so the best way for this expedition was of course to choose to take the sea route, and as the first leader in charge of the late navy, he himself was of course responsible for the work related to his own field.

"No, we're not targeting demons." Minister of War and Aircraft Dante smiled slightly: "On the contrary, I think that so far we need to stop all actions to infiltrate the demon clan, and reduce the capture of the ancient orc clan, so as to reduce the chance that the demon clan will find out about the mutation in the rear." My proposal is that we set the destination of our diplomatic expedition here. ”

Everyone found that the Minister of War and Aircraft was not referring to the upper left corner of the conference map, that is, the area where the demon clan of the Ancient Continent roughly appeared, but a location located not far from the upper left corner outside the map.

"Based on the information gathered by Lord Morse's subordinates, I can basically conclude that the demon clan is definitely a group of chaotic races, but have you ever wondered why these guys are really chaotic by nature, why do we not attack each other even when we detect that the other party is indeed in a state of war all the time, and even the operation of eliminating those orc tribes that are closer to them does not happen very often? Therefore, I think that the area of the demon clan that we have found is very likely to be their large rear, and in the area where we are located, it may be the same as Lord Morse judged, there is a force there that is no less powerful than the demon clan. ”

"Dante, you're gambling!" Sun Lin, who listened to everyone's opinions, frowned and said: "Cancel the slave capture plan, give up the infiltration and reconnaissance of the demon clan, and choose to set your hope in that unknown mysterious force, you must know that your plan will cost our empire a lot of labor and funds to be successfully implemented, can you guarantee that this plan is feasible?" And if there is no such mysterious force on the other side of the Desolate Ancient Continent at that time, or even if there is, if their attitude is the same as that of the demon clan, wouldn't it mean that all our investments will be in vain? ”

"But Your Majesty, you have to deny that this plan, if successful, will maximize the benefits." Dante said seriously: "Your Majesty, think about it, if that mysterious force really exists and can communicate, we will not only be able to make the demons not pay attention to the southern end of the Ancient Continent, but even be able to kill people with a knife, and the most important thing is that this will be exchanged for a golden passage, Your Majesty, I don't think that there is still that force in this world now that can surpass us in terms of equipment made by that force."

Dante is indeed right, although the sun does not set the current overall industrial level has not yet entered the original world in the 15th and 16th centuries, but in terms of military industry, the empire has initially reached the level of the end of the 14th century, and even includes some water conservancy equipment, steam engine equipment, etc. And the exercises created by the apprentices in the military factory can become the equipment of the elite army in some small countries of the King Continent.

“......... Morse, you can stop infiltrating the demonic territory, and at the same time you tell Saladin that the scope of the slave catchers has been reduced by half in the recent period, and as compensation I will give priority to providing 3,000 sets of new Gothic plate armor, but at the same time, let him build Antioch's fortifications with all his might, I need him to double Antioch's defense in the shortest possible time, and I will find a way to pay the cost. Sun Lin was silent for a while and then spoke.

"Blackbeard, Orso."

"The minister is here." The two who were named by Sun Lin immediately responded.

"Orso, you are the Imperial Minister in charge of the logistics of the entire navy, I will give you half a month, you need to build a small ocean-going fleet for me in the city of London, Blackbeard, you can provide him with whatever you need, I need this ocean-going fleet to be able to sink a Hawker-class battleship in terms of combat effectiveness while the number of this ocean-going fleet is not more than three. Do you understand? ”

"Don't worry, I will definitely put the best in the army.

"Dante....... I have to admit that you convinced me, but you didn't fully convince me, because the Empire is currently lacking a lot of orc labor in various places, so it is impossible for the Empire to cancel the slave hunt around Antioch City. ”

"No, Your Majesty, you can choose the minister's proposal, the minister is already very honored." Dante said excitedly.

"Hehe, don't be too happy, don't forget that your plans are full of uncertainty, I can tell you unequivocally that if the facts deviate from what you imagined, I will let Saladin lead the city of London, and you, don't think of returning from Antioch until you have repelled the demon army."
