It is now mid-October. If he delays it for one month, and then another month, it will be the end of the year. In his plan, he will try to advance to Sequence 4 within this year... and according to his estimation, as long as he reaches Sequence 4,
Being able to defend himself in front of George III, and even be able to temporarily resist him, Adam would most likely put himself on the table.
At that time, it was completely unfeasible to think about "accumulating food widely and slowly becoming king".
At this moment, Vincenzo took a small step forward and respectfully explained to Gray Linte:
"Actually, the reason lies in farming... Sir, you don't know. Every year, the end of September, October, and early November is the spring plowing time in Sobia, while the end of November and early December is the summer harvest time, and there is often a rush to harvest.
Wheat field.”
So, the time before and after is still stuck?
Gray Linte was a little unwilling:
"That's right...then what if I don't recruit additional troops? I only take the former criminal camp men who have no work to do, and go to war?"
"this……"
Vincenzo was embarrassed for a while. He had already heard that Gray Linte was really willing to send troops.
After a while, he gritted his teeth:
"Even so, my lord, you'd better wait for new grain to arrive in the warehouse before planning to send troops."
This is an old saying. You must know that war is never just a frontal fight. Its impact is very wide-ranging, such as fluctuations in people's hearts, rising food prices, and increased crime rates...
If you are not prepared in advance, it will be very troublesome to deal with it.
Gray Linte frowned again.
He is not a militaristic monarch who insists on using force to show his majesty. He is more focused on practical interests.
He also carefully considered the proposal of this expedition for two days... Although the words of Sasha, Modan, Vincenzo, and Avapova were indeed not bad, they all had the same flaw:
The vision is too narrow, and the analysis is focused on one-third of an acre of land in Sobia.
Gray Lint’s view is that first, as the New Year is approaching, the military forces of the two colonial neighbors on the left and right will shrink somewhat, especially Loen. Regardless of whether the Backlund Great Smog will happen again, all walks of life in Loen will
A large part of the attention will be taken away; secondly, the "source of chaos" he threw out is now getting more and more intense, which is a suitable time for him to draw chestnuts from the fire. It is difficult to say how the situation will develop after a while.
"Alister, what do you think?"
While hesitating and weighing, General Grayling said.
Alister grinned, scratched his head and showed his white teeth:
"I fully comply with your will, sir... However, sir, recently I have often felt that my abilities are very lacking, so after spending time reading various military and political books, I am a little eager for your understanding..."
"Oh? Tell me about it."
Gray Linte secretly praised it and smiled with great interest.
"That's it, sir, I saw it said in the book, 'Many times, wars occur because the political system has developed to a certain level and the internal contradictions are difficult to reconcile, so they have to be transformed into external contradictions...' However, I think Sobia is currently in the process of
It’s a great time for vigorous development, why do you want to start a war?”
Gray Linte laughed dumbly:
"I heard that, co-author, you are actually trying to persuade me in a roundabout way!"
He waved his hand to stop Alister's explanation, looked around at the key members of Sobia, raised his voice a little and promised:
"Don't worry, I will not initiate a war on impulse. No matter what the final result of this proposal is, I believe it is the collective wisdom of our people and will be beneficial to the development of Sobia in the long run.
"As for your doubts..."
He turned to look at Alister:
"That's because you all only saw the situation in Sobia and failed to take into account the overall situation. Sobia does not have any internal worries now, but there are a lot of external troubles... External conflicts have always been a problem for Sobia.
Existence is not transformed from the inside out."
Alister nodded, thoughtfully.
Gray Linte waved his hand:
"Okay, I already understand most of your thoughts and reasons. Let's break up the meeting first. Let's put this matter aside for the time being. I'll think about it more carefully."
It's not that he threw away the word "drag", but he thought of a better person to consult - Medici Soren Einhorn, the top military strategist today.
…………
In the afternoon, in the living room of the Vertek Garden House.
Gray Linte leaned back on the sofa, with Carol next to her... Although she was supporting Eudora's body, her inner consciousness and outer image were all her own.
Sauron was floating not far away, and Gray Lint found him as the "Lord of Order" and summoned him.
It is worth mentioning that Gray Lint was too lazy to listen to the scheming between him and Einhorn, so he conveniently blocked Einhorn's consciousness - this was a powerful shock to both of them.
As for why Sauron was retained but not Einhorn?
Isn't this the case that Carol still has half the blood of the Sauron family? Although she and her father had a bad relationship and even changed her surname to Jacob, this still affected some of Gray Linte's choices.
"Should I call you Mr. Solon or Ms. Solon?"
Gray Linte looked at Sauron jokingly, and Carol also had piercing eyes. She didn't have any affection for this nominal "evil spirit ancestor", let alone family affection... This was because she had been promoted to the rank before.
At 4, the other party handed over his "clone" to Amon, which was equivalent to selling her directly!
Although he may have three consciousnesses mixed together and cannot help himself, or he may not know in advance that he has the blood of the Sauron family - but the fact is the fact, and it will not change because of anyone's subjective reasons.
Sauron did not accept his trick:
"Of course it's the former...Mr. Graylingt, compared to before, your ability to provoke has really declined a lot...but I have to admit that what you know is really beyond my expectation.
"What do you want from me? Let me guess, it's military related?"
The subject of his conversation changed so suddenly that Gray Linte almost didn't recover.
Bang bang bang!
"Wonderful, absolutely excellent thinking and logic. Can you tell me the reason for your guess?"
Gray Linte clapped his hands a little exaggeratedly, but instead of getting into the topic, he asked an irrelevant question.
Sauron nodded seriously and said:
"It's very simple, just use your brain."
He uttered something out of habit, and without waiting for Gray Linte to get angry, he explained directly:
"First, I haven't completed any of your previous instructions, so this call is definitely not a follow-up to what happened before. Second, I can't beat you... except for brains, no, except for military planning, I think there is really nothing
Worth your attention.
"Okay, let's get straight to the point, shall we? I believe your time is definitely more precious than mine."
Gray Linte frowned, and he suddenly realized that the conversation between himself and Sauron had been completely dominated by him inadvertently.
"Haha, Mr. Soren, you don't have to be so anxious. Wouldn't it be better to learn from Mr. Einhorn's composure?"
After stabbing Sauron a little, Gray Linte described the situation in Sobia with a smile, and then asked sincerely:
"So what does Mr. Soren think?"
Sauron was greatly surprised:
"Why are you paying so much attention to a small border city?"
Gray Linte has a donkey face. He was smiling and smiling just now, with a gentle expression. When he heard Sauron prying into his secrets presumptuously, he immediately turned his face and said with displeasure:
"Your Excellency Sauron, your curiosity is too strong."
"Well……"
Sauron choked immediately. He was in a state of despair. He was controlled by others and couldn't be strong. He quickly said:
"No, actually I'm not curious about this at all."
He quickly changed the subject:
"As for the situation you described...
"I think it is inappropriate to launch a war, even a small or medium-sized war. As for small-scale raids, as long as they don't achieve much results, it doesn't matter.
"The reason is actually very simple. No matter how strong an ant is, no matter how infinite its potential is, it will not arouse the fear of humans... But if it has the ability to swallow up its own kind and grow rapidly, then the situation will be completely different.
"Sobia is like this ant. When it is weak, it can fish in troubled waters among the three major forces and have both sides. This is very safe and no one will care about it because it is too weak. But if it attempts
To become a major force from the fourth party... even if it just has this sign, it may face the joint suppression of the three major forces at the same time. There is no way, who told you that you are geographically adjacent to the three parties? "
It makes sense. Gray Lint has to admit that in terms of the overall situation, he is much stronger than the backbone of Sobia, but he is far inferior to Sauron. He not only focuses on the surrounding cities, but also on the two cities.
The Chinese colonial army and the resistance army also knew their thoughts extremely accurately.
Yes, Intis, the Loen colonial army, and the resistance forces check and balance each other, which makes them happy to become chaotic under each other's rule. But for Intis and Loen, no new division of the cake is allowed.
This is also a basic consensus.
The Rose School of Thought and the Resistance Army of the Spiritual Religion Group each have their own beliefs, and they are not from the same group as the Sobian Army... As "heretics", the Sobian Army is actually no different from the colonial armies of the two countries, and they are both targets of the resistance.
.
"So, there is no other way but to lie low and develop honestly?"
Gray Linte frowned deeply. He had never felt that Sobia's situation was so difficult at such a moment.
The reality is that on the one hand, the end is approaching, and he does not have that much time to lurk and develop; on the other hand, although Sobia City is vast and sparsely populated, the territory is only so large after all, with a lack of natural resources, a limited population, and an economic base.
It's also relatively poor...With all these restrictions, Sobia's development will be naturally limited and will never meet his expectations.
