    Section 3 discusses strategy

    At about 11 o'clock that night, Lin Fenghan led a huge fleet back to Deep Water Bay Port.  At this time, the navy, which had been sailing for a day, had no rest. With the assistance of Bonos, Bonodong, and the naval ship management personnel of the deep-water port, it was only after three o'clock in the morning that the parking of more than 300 ships was completed.

    Most of the army was almost exhausted. They had a day of rest on the second day. On the third day, on November 7, 920, the army fully recovered its physical strength and morale.

    At this time, Deep Water Bay was particularly lively. Many slaves and servants were released from their shackles. Some people who fled also rushed to Deep Water Port. Many people who were anonymous slowly resumed their original identities.  Lin Fenghan, who had occupied the city of Waterdeep, which was rich in supplies, never looked for supplies. A large amount of food was provided free of charge to some poor people and people who deliberately joined in the fun through the relief canteen.

    ??At around nine o'clock in the morning, in the meeting hall of the Lord's Mansion of Waterdeep City, Lin Fenghan, Ali, Kelland, Pulet, Bonos, Bonodongmany generals and senior officers gathered together.

    Intelligence officer Noni slowly stood up, looked at the people gathered together, and said loudly: "Your Excellency, Baron, and colleagues, now let me explain the current situation to you."

    "In the north, after the battle the day before yesterday, the three thousand troops sent by Cape Watch City to Waterdeep City have returned to garrison, but they were only half successful. After seeing the Elant army burning most of the sailing ships and plundering many  Supplies, Viscount Lu Linsen, the city lord of Cape Hope City, was very angry. He left more than 3,000 professional troops to defend the city. At the same time, on the afternoon of the second day, he still sent more than 1,000 professional soldiers and 500 militiamen to join the crusade against us.  .¡±

    "Most of the coastal nobles in the north were frightened by our strength and only sent a small number of troops to join the coalition." Noni paused, quickly walked out of his seat and walked towards the map of the southern continent hung behind Lin Fenghan.

    Noni pointed to the place west of Waterdeep City with his cane and said: "In this place called Mulan Town, the escaped Baron Bratt worried the surrounding nobles. I heard that more than 6,000 people were about to gather. According to the rumors,  At least 20 nobles and hundreds of knights have come here. They plan to gather here, collect food and grass, and then attack Waterdeep City."

    At this time, everyone attending the meeting became commotion and discussed countermeasures in low voices.  Noni said more seriously: "The real danger is not here. In the south, half of the Brant family's army to suppress the rebellion is said to have gone north. After so many days of rapid march, they are almost reaching Waterdeep City."

    "According to the reconnaissance reports of our light cavalry and spies, the vanguard of the Brant Army has appeared 40 kilometers away from Waterdeep City, and their numbers are densely packed. The army marched for two to three kilometers, and there were at least more than three thousand people.  Man, this army is the Kingdom of Dambreth, the border army of the Brant family stationed in the western region. After long-term training and nearly a month of war in the Senvi region, the army's combat effectiveness is extremely strong and cannot be underestimated."

    "Yeah! Yes!" Lin Fenghan stood up, thinking seriously and said: "There are currently three different teams attacking our stronghold of Waterdeep City. Among them, there are nearly 2,000 troops stationed in Cape Watch City, and nearly 2,000 troops from the United Nobles.  6,000 people, and the southern field army has more than 3,000 people. Their combined strength is more than twice ours. The current situation is very dangerous, and we must carefully consider our current countermeasures."

    Noni looked at Lin Fenghan hesitantly, touched his chest hesitantly and said, "Baron, did you discover something strange this morning?"

    "Say?" Lin Fenghan asked softly.

    "This morning, a businessman said that he was entrusted by a young lady and gave the guard a strange letter. This letter wrote about the Brant family and detailed information about the current coalition forces.  , let me interpret it for you."

    Noni said seriously: "The writer in the letter said that the current original owner of Waterdeep City is the youngest son of the previous generation Duke Brant. Since he is not the eldest son, the old Duke Brant, who favors him, canonized a piece of rich land to  He, these things all caused dissatisfaction with Baron Brat¡¯s brother, the contemporary Duke of Brat, during this initial recruitment.¡±

    "Baron Bratt recruited in the name of Duke Brant, and lured the vassals and minor nobles of the surrounding Brant family to come to serve him and lead troops to attack Waterdeep City. But Duke Brant was already familiar with all this, and he sent  His trusted assistant, Captain Kevlar, a former soldier from the border army came to command the battle."

    "The letter states that no later than November 7, the newly arrived Kefla will gain command of the combined army and may come to attack Waterdeep on a subsequent date."

    "A lady?"

    "The mysterious businessman?"

    "Kevlar, the captain of the guard?"

     "Border soldiers?"

    "Commander of the nobles' united army?"

    Lin Fenghan frowned, lowered his head in thought, and murmured at the map.

    Everyone looked at each other in wonderment and discussed.

    "Entrusted by a young lady?"

    "A mysterious businessman?"

    "When will our Elantra army, which is fighting alone, also have allies?"

    "I don't think she's an ally. She's definitely a woman who admires the Baron. Maybe she's his lover. Hehe!"

    ¡­¡­

    Lin Fenghan came to his senses, paused for a moment, and said seriously: "Brothers, the time left by the Brandt family is running out for us."

    "The enemies this time are extremely powerful, with more than 10,000 people in total. Facing enemies from three directions, what should we do?"

    Kelande rolled his eyes and said loudly: "Of course we hit the main force and defeated them separately. My opinion is that we first gather the army and cavalry to attack the Cape of Sea reinforcements. This army of less than 2,000 people is the weakest.  We can beat them easily."

    "Yeah! That makes sense!" Ma Youden applauded.

    Corland stood up at this time and said seriously: "My view is to concentrate the main force to take the initiative, but it is definitely not to attack the weak force first. My view is to attack the noble united army with the largest number of people and the closest one to us first.  , this army has more than 6,000 people. If we defeat them, then our military strength will be almost the same as that of Brandt¡¯s army in the next battle, and it will be much easier to defeat them."

    "Yes! It makes sense, I agree." Admiral Bonos nodded slowly and said seriously.

    At this time, everyone was intensely discussing how to march next. Only Pulet sat on his chair and frowned at the map without saying a word.

    Lin Fenghan asked with strange eyes: "Old General, what do you think?"

    Platt slowly scanned the crowd and said seriously: "Baron, I am a professional army soldier. I know what a truly powerful army is. The Cape Watch garrison in the north, although it is a regular army, has been stationed in the city for a long time.  The discipline and combat effectiveness must have been severely corrupted, and the number of people is too small to be a concern.¡±

    "To the west, the mighty noble coalition forces total more than 6,000 people, but they are all formed by more than 20 different nobles. Peasants and militiamen account for most of them. The command is very complicated, and the cooperation between them must be uncoordinated.  Although there are many people, there are actually too many commanders, and the actual combat effectiveness is greatly reduced."

    "On the contrary, in the Senvi Mountains in the south, the border defense army of the Brandt family is our most serious concern. Most of this army is composed of border soldiers. Although there are also some militiamen, after a month of war, the real strength will be very strong.  I think this force is the most terrifying among the three enemies."

    "Yeah! The old general is still knowledgeable!" Lin Fenghan nodded in admiration, looked at everyone, and said seriously: "My views are similar to the old general. We also fight separately. I decided to leave 1,500 people to protect the city. I  Then lead four thousand elite troops south to attack Brant's Field Army."

    ¡°It¡¯s up to everyone to prepare for the next thing.¡±

    "ah!"

    "Go south!"

    "The south side has the greatest fighting power?"

    ¡­¡­

    Everyone looked at Lin Fenghan and Pulet in surprise and admiration, and started talking.
