When the final deadline came, nearly a hundred followers, Sanctuary, Magisters, and generals gathered in the war room, waiting for Richard to announce the goal of the call. After many rounds of renovation, the command building has been transformed into a magnificent command castle, and the corresponding war room has also become a battle hall. There are several magic maps hanging on the four walls of the hall, and the display can be adjusted at any time as needed. The hall can accommodate 100 people at a time, and there are several offices on both sides for the use of operational staff officers. They will refine a simple command into a combat plan that can be executed.

When the magic bell rang, Richard stepped up to the high platform and looked down on the dark crowd in the hall. In addition to the followers who need to guard their respective planes, it can be said that Richard's core henchmen are here.

Richard's gaze swept over the crowd and paused for a moment on a dark-haired young woman. He still remembered that this was Southrael, and it was also the 'reparation' that the Schumpeter family had paid to Richard as part of the armistice. At that time, Richard had also briefly developed an interest in the strange Southrael, but this interest was quickly extinguished in the constant war and travel. Richard remembered throwing Southrael into the Faro and basically leaving her to fend for herself. Richard didn't remember ever contacting her, but one of the former Schumpeter flowers appeared in the command hall, indicating that she was at least the commander of a force of 3,000 men. Being able to pull up an army of 3,000 people when she has nothing shows that she is by no means a vase, but really talented.

This rekindled Richard's interest in Southrael, and he focused on her. Now there is no shortage of Richard's powerhouses in the Holy Domain, what is lacking are legends, generals and powerful priests.

But Richard just looked at her more. Now Richard is in power, and his own strength is also moving towards a legend. For example, the characters of Thorsrael are too far away from him. Now that she's managed to get Richard's attention, Richard is willing to give her a chance and some resources to see what she can do. But that's about it. She seized the first opportunity to have this opportunity. Only by seizing this opportunity in the same way will Richard be willing to invest more in her.

"Everyone, this time we are gathered together to prepare for a war, a war that will change the entire dimensional pattern!" Richard's first sentence captured everyone's hearts.

With a wave of Richard's hand, a map of the area around the Crimson Duchy appeared on the huge hanging magic map behind him. However, the map quickly shrank, and the coverage encompassed the entire Iron Triangle Empire, as well as the Ancestral Highlands and Pale Highlands. Immediately, the Iron Triangle Empire lit up on the map.

Richard said calmly, "Just now, the emissary of the Iron Triangle Empire rejected my request and declared war on the Crimson Duchy. ”

The crowd burst into flames and discussions. The faces of the generals were not solemn, but excited. For them, although the Iron Triangle Empire is huge, it is nothing more than a defeated man, and it is not worth mentioning. Even if they were able to gather hundreds of thousands of troops, the most they would have to do was to spend a little more time destroying them.

When the excitement had subsided a little, Richard continued: "I have just proposed to the emissaries of the Iron Triangle Empire that if their army can penetrate the principality for thirty kilometers, then this war will be considered a loss for me. ”

This sentence stunned many generals who were well versed in warfare, and some of them had other ideas in mind. One of the generals said on the spot: "Is this to trick the main force of the Iron Triangle into coming in and reuniting and annihilating it?"

Richard shook his head and said, "No, I'm not going to lie. This time, the Iron Triangle Empire will be led by Sarenwell. He's my old rival now, and he knows me well and knows that I'm not going to lie to him about it. Therefore, he will definitely try his best to attack the principality thirty kilometers to force me to admit defeat. Although he won't get anything to win me in this way, it will be enough to buy some time for the Iron Triangle Empire. ”

"However, the Iron Triangle Empire is only our first target in this war. At this stage, we will invade the Iron Triangle Empire, conquer their imperial capital, and force the empire to surrender. After completing this goal, I will upgrade the Crimson Duchy to a kingdom. ”

Richard's words made the blood boil for many generals, especially some of them who were born in Faro. From principality to kingdom, it's not just a change of title, it's a real benefit. This means the expansion of territory, the large number of new nobles, and the succession of a new number of families. For the generals, this is the biggest motivation for them to fight bloodily.

The followers, on the other hand, were indifferent, they were used to fighting and war. The great power makes them look down on the power of the world. For them, status and power are within reach, and the pursuit of greater power is the fundamental way.

Richard's gaze swept over his followers, consciously or unconsciously, and said, "The Iron Triangle Empire is a foundation

In this war, we will encounter a large number of strong men, and we will inevitably meet legends!"

This time, all the followers were stunned. Even tiramisu became serious. In any case, Legend is a title with different meanings. Even a parallel legend like the Dragon Star of the Hulan Plane gave Richard a deep headache at the beginning.

For the first time, the people from Faro fell silent. Legend in Faro, almost alongside the gods. The reverence for the legend is in the blood and soul of almost every Faro.

Richard was still relaxed and said, "Okay, that's the goal of the first phase of the war." As for the second and third phases of the war, when the conditions are met, I will sue you. Now, I will announce the new appointments. ”

Then there was a flurry of appointments. The war included all aspects, and the main force attacking the Iron Triangle Empire was naturally led by Richard himself, but the long border line also needed to be heavily guarded, so as not to be taken advantage of by the troops of the Iron Triangle Empire. The gains already made in the Ancestral Highlands also need to be consolidated. It took an hour for Richard to finish all the arrangements.

But on the magic map, the shape shì is unusually simple, and a thick arrow points directly to the capital of the Iron Triangle Empire.

At this moment, in the middle of the Iron Triangle Empire, a legion of tens of thousands of elite warriors is heading to the border region. In the middle of the ranks, Sarenwell was heavily armed and rode on his horse, looking no different from the ordinary generals around him. The iconic luxury carriages of yesteryear are long gone, and the beautiful female mage's assistants are nowhere to be found.

At this moment, a giant eagle flew in the sky, and after hovering in the air for several weeks, it recognized the military Sherowell, swooped down, landed beside Sarenwell, and then turned into a middle-aged druid. The Eagle Druid handed a letter to Sarenwell. Sarenwell took it apart and looked at it for a moment, his brows locked together. A moment later he ordered the map to be brought, spread out on horseback, and began to study it carefully, while at the same time giving the letter to the principal generals for circulation. A general only glanced at it and roared angrily: "This Richard is too arrogant! Could it be that the elite division of our empire can't even penetrate 30 kilometers? Can he defend the border line of 1,000 kilometers everywhere?"

The letter was circulated through the hands of the generals, and everyone was outraged by Richard's hubris. The generals are talking about such a long border line, and there can be loopholes at every turn. As long as one of them is caught, it is not difficult to drive 30 kilometers. But then some people suddenly felt that Richard was trying to use this as bait to deceive the emperor ** into the enemy territory, and then gather and annihilate him.

Sarenwell, who had been immersed in studying the map, suddenly said, "Richard won't lie about this." ”

Even if the generals have always been very convinced of Sarenwell, some people can't help but ask why.

"Because it's not necessary. Sarenwell said lightly.

A heaviness rose in the hearts of the generals. Why is it not necessary?

On the map, the long border line twists and turns. Sarenwell had looked at it several times, wondering where there might be weaknesses and where there might be traps. He knew Richard, and he knew that this might be the only chance for the Iron Triangle Empire. If it can really break through thirty kilometers, it can buy the empire at least a year or so. But what can he do in a year? Sarenwell himself didn't know how to save the situation, maybe he could only look forward to the appearance of the legendary powerhouses.

Richard and his Crimson Duchy are like a monster, growing every moment. Time is always on Richard's side, and Sarenwell is now convinced of this, and whenever he thinks about it, he feels extremely powerless.

He suddenly felt a little tired, so he rubbed his eyes vigorously. At this moment, a thought suddenly crossed Saronwell's mind: "What if there were no loopholes in the boundary line at all?"

As soon as this idea appeared, Sarenwell's first reaction was that it was impossible. Because to deploy on such a long front, the number of troops required will be astronomical. But at this moment, Sarenwell suddenly felt an uncomfortable feeling, and suddenly looked up and looked into the sky. High in the sky, a small black dot was hovering against the clouds. It was like a black-tailed eagle that is common in the north, but this one is particularly glaring today.

"Can you shoot it down?" said Sarenwell, gesturing to the sky.

The general beside him looked in the direction of Sarenwell's finger and said, "A black-tailed eagle?" ”

The general bent his bow and arrows, and the fighting spirit on his body gradually drummed up. At that moment, the black-tailed eagle suddenly flapped its wings into the clouds and disappeared into the thick clouds. The general looked surprised and said, "It's strange, why is this guy so cunning." ”

Sarenwell's face was extremely ugly, and he knew that most of his whereabouts had already been known to Richard.
