    Chapter 306: Pre-war meeting

    March 9, Alliance Southern Allied Forces Command.

    A military meeting with a serious atmosphere is unfolding.  General Peleg sat at the top, with his hands on his chin and his elbows on the table, his face expressionless.  All the officers from Liverpool and Florence, as well as military advisers from other countries, looked equally expressionless.  The entire conference room was extremely silent. Except for the occasional chirping of spring bugs coming from the window, no sound could enter human ears.

    Farrer coughed twice and was the first to break the silence in the conference room: "Ahem, does anyone have anything to add to the battle plan I just mentioned?"

    There was another period of silence, no one would choose to speak at this time.  Even people who like to talk loudly on weekdays only watch their eyes, nose, mouth, and heart.  Draco really wanted to speak at this time and express his disapproval of the proposal to launch a war at this time.  But in the hour-long conversation he had with General Farrar last night, everything that needed to be said had been said, but nothing had changed.  If you say it at this time, there will be no new results.  In fact, whether it is him, Farrar, or other officers or military advisers present, as long as they have certain military experience, they know that it is absolutely unwise to launch a battle at this time.  But the military serves politics. Politically, it has been decided that the orc army cannot continue to carry out such wanton destruction in the Principality of Florence. So what can they, as soldiers, do?

    Seeing that everyone was silent, Farrar had to cough twice again: "Well, since everyone has no opinions, I will announce in the name of the Alliance General Headquarters that on March 10th, that is, tomorrow, according to our  The previously agreed battle plan was to launch an attack on the Orc Tomahawk troops at eight o'clock in the morning"

    When Farrar was just short of the last word "attack" and the battle meeting was about to end, a burst of footsteps came from outside the door.  This sound will be familiar to everyone present: it is the crisp sound made by the all-steel combat boots stepping on the solid wood floor.

    Farrar was a little angry. He had already given orders to the guards at the door. No matter who they were, they were not allowed to enter the conference room during the meeting.  But when he raised his head and saw the figure of the visitor, all the scolding that had just come to his mouth was swallowed back into his stomach.  He even had to stand up and bow his head slightly to show respect.

    "It's very lively" The man touched the curtain of the 'Southern Allied Military Council' hanging on the wall, with a faint smile on his lips, "It's great that everyone is here, but as for the military council,  , why didn't anyone notify me to come?" The man continued to smile and pointed his eyes at General Farrar.

    Peleg is not young. He is in his forties and has spent half his life in the army. He must have had hundreds of lives on his hands, not to mention too many.  But under that man's smiling gaze, he couldn't help but feel slightly uncomfortable.  Apart from General Batistuta, there was really no one else who could make him feel this way.

    This person could not be anyone else. With such an identity, the only person in the hall who dared not say a word in response to his unscrupulous attitude was Lin Tan, who wore the title of Grand Marshal.

    Lin Tan was dressed in military uniform, with a set of plate armor neatly put on, and various epaulets and medals hung on his chest and shoulders.  With his hands behind his back, he strolled to General Farrar's desk and picked up the meeting materials and battle plan in front of him.  He flipped it open and took a look, then asked with a half-smile, "Can I take a look? Commander Farrar?" Lin Tan especially emphasized the word "commander" very hard.

    Cold sweat broke out, Farrar was not afraid of Lin Tan to this extent.  It's just a little bit of embarrassment that still lingers in my heart.  Farrar quickly gave up his seat and made a gesture of invitation with his hands.  Lin Tan sat down unceremoniously, and then began to look through Farrar's battle plan.

    Honestly speaking, this plan letter is quite high quality.  It can also be seen from this that General Farrar is not a talentless person. At least being able to come up with such a plan is not something that ordinary mediocre people can do.

    After reading the report, Lin Tan also removed his face that seemed to be full of ridicule for everyone.  In fact, the main reason why Lin Tan looked like this when he entered the door was to shock these people who were half-hearted because he was no longer there.  Obviously, Lin Tan had achieved his goal very well. Even Farrar did not dare to have any meaning in Lin Tan's return to the position of generalissimo.  As for what they were thinking, Lin Tan really didn't have anything to worry about at this time.

      Since the first goal has been achieved, then there is another goal.

    Lin Tan had just woken up from a coma, and then immediately received the news that Farrar had convened a meeting with various senior officials and political advisors, and immediately rushed over without stopping.  On the way, he also considered this issue carefully.  Lin Tan believed that he had good military abilities, but he also believed that he should become a leader.  For a leader to know something, it is not just about learning how to win a war. There are many more things to consider than a pure military commander.

    It has to be said that if it is purely for military victory, using space for time, using small fortresses in the hinterland of the alliance, each fortress only needs to hold the orcs for one day, then it can be supported for a long, long time.  By the time the second batch of reinforcements from other countries in the alliance arrives, and the southern coalition's military strength exceeds that of the orcs, it will be much easier to win the war.  However, the war is for political service, and the Alliance Council cannot watch the Principality of Florence being destroyed in the war. This war with the orcs has probably reached an inevitable point.

    After considering things from the perspective of a politician and deciding to fight a war with the orcs, Lin Tan had to change his role and think about it from the perspective of a military strategist. How on earth would he fight such a war with the orcs?

    Regarding this point, Lin Tan already had a directional idea along the way, but with a specific and detailed battle plan, Lin Tan really didn't have much free time to think about it during the short ten-minute journey.  And Farrar's plan can just be a supplement to Lin Tan's own plan!
