Section 15 Aid Conditions (Please add to favorites)
"The Baron first defeated Brant's vanguard army, then defeated Brant's navy, captured Waterdeep City, defeated the Second Army, and defeated the Shenmu City coalition forces. These battles really opened our eyes. What a vision!¡±
"Duke Brant has lost troops, fleets, cities, the Second Legion, the Senvi region, and vassal nobles and territories over and over again. Currently, most of their family's foundations in the southern continent have been shaken by His Excellency the Baron. After the attack, I am really impressed.¡±
Lemon Missy paused at this point, looked at Lin Fenghan who was smiling proudly and said, "I wonder what the Baron is going to do next after completing these achievements? I heard that Duke Brant was very angry. The Third Army and the Fourth Army guarding the border are slowly moving inland, preparing to be transported to the southern continent via fleet. It is expected that during the handover next spring and autumn, he will lead the army to regain his lost territory. I wonder if the Baron has Prepared?"
Lin Fenghan's face became solemn and he said seriously: "I have already conquered various territories under the jurisdiction of the Brandt family. In addition, I have family hatred with him. The current hatred can no longer be adjusted. I can only We will train the army and reserve supplies in order to fight hard and defeat them next year."
"oh?"
Lemon Missy raised his eyebrows and asked: "I wonder how many troops the Baron can train within the next year? How much food can be stored? How many armors and shields can be made? How many spears and swords can be made? How many ships and fleets can be made? How many bunker cities can be defended?"
"Does the Baron really have enough materials and confidence to defend the territory currently occupied and Duke Brant's counterattack?"
Lemony Missy put down the teacup in her hand and approached Lin Fenghan and asked.
Silence!
Silence!
After a long time, Lin Fenghan said firmly with eyes: "Even though there is a shortage of supplies, armaments, and soldiers, I, Yi Liuyun, am still determined to fight to the end to defend the dignity of the Elante family."
Lin Fenghan raised his head and frowned at Lemon Missy and asked, "I wonder what your Excellency Lemon Missy has to say about this situation?"
Lemony Missy gently flicked the dust on his sleeves and said with a slight smile: "I am here precisely for this matter. The Baron does not need to worry about this matter, as long as the Baron can agree to the few small things proposed by the Prime Minister. If you request, then the Prime Minister is willing to support the Baron on a large scale with swords, spears, leather armor, bronze armor, composite iron-inlaid leather armor, precision chainmail, war horses, chariots, food and other supplies."
"Oh?" Lin Fenghan raised his eyebrows and asked, "I wonder what the prime minister's few requests are? Let me hear them."
Lemony Missy smiled softly and said softly: "First of all, the prime minister hopes that after you defeat Duke Brant's army, you can dedicate part of the urban land belonging to Duke Brant's influence in the southern continent to His Majesty the King. As a provincial territory directly under the royal family. Secondly, the prime minister hopes that the city of Cape Watch and this seaport can belong to the royal family and be managed by the royal family. This third"
Lin Fenghan quickly reached out and interrupted Lemon Missy's words, and asked rigorously: "Listen to your words, is the royal family planning to sanction Duke Brant and take back the territories of many military nobles who disobey the commander-in-chief? So you hope that I can help you To contain the forces of the great nobles in the central and western parts of the Duke of Brant, it is better to eliminate them all at once, or to lose both sides, and the royal family and the nobles loyal to the royal family take advantage of this to send troops to occupy the territories of the Duke of Brant and other nobles?"
"Your Excellency Baron, I have never said such words. These are all speculations made by Your Excellency Baron. Please do not spread this speculation to others." Lemon Missy straightened his chest and waved his hands seriously.
"As long as the Baron can meet these conditions, or can be loyal to the king and contribute most of his current territory, the prime minister will definitely ask the king to make you the earl of the Kingdom of Dambreth and the general of the royal army. Wait until you become the general of the kingdom. At that time, relying on your military talents, you will definitely open up the borders of the kingdom. By then, the canonization of the kingdom as a grand duke will be just around the corner. Your Excellency, Baron, please think deeply!"
"No need!"
Lin Fenghan categorically shook his head and refused: "I have gone through several battles before, defeated more than 20,000 enemies, and collected more than 50,000 spears, swords, shields, leather armor, iron swords, and chainmail. Among them The complete infantry suit also has more than 17,000 pieces, so I am not short of weapons."
"Furthermore, Deepwater City, Shenmu City, Sea Sand City, and many seaport military towns in the Senwei area have accumulated a lot of food, which is enough for the army to feed the army for three to four months. I am not very demanding for your material support. If you can use administrative If you decree, or send troops to help me, then I will need it even more."
"No!"
"No!"
¡°No!¡±
"Your Excellency Baron!" Raymond Missy waved his hand confidently and said: "With the tens of thousands of bronze spears, bronze long swords, bronze breastplates, weak leather armor, and a small number of fragile iron swords that you collected, An ancient shield made of rotten wood that can be used to burn fire?¡±
"Frankly speaking, based on our observations, only 3,000 to 5,000 people in your army have complete equipment, which is the same as today's era. Other light infantry, archers, spearmen, etc. Their equipment is a little better than that of the militia, but compared with the main army on the border of Dambreth Kingdom, it is far behind."
Lemon Missy said in detail: "Yi Liuyun, do you know? The Western First Army, Second Army, Third Army, and Fourth Army under the jurisdiction of the Brandt Dukedom defend the border, and they are all equipped with the most advanced equipment in the kingdom. Weapons and armor. In the long-term small-scale combat defense against the barbarians, these 40,000 troops have been greatly tempered. They possess extraordinary combat awareness and vigilance. It is precisely because of Duke Brant¡¯s 40,000 troops. There are multiple legions guarding the border, so the king has nearly 100,000 regular army troops and 200,000 reserve militiamen who dare not act rashly. If you really want to underestimate his border army, you will pay the price in blood."
"ah!"
Lin Fenghan took a breath and looked at Lemon Missy seriously.
Looking at Lin Fenghan's expression, Lemon Missy said seriously: "These more than 40,000 legions are troops that have seen blood and experienced nearly a hundred years of fighting heritage. Although you Xiaoxing disabled the second legion, but The other three legions still cannot be underestimated. Their archers, crossbowmen, spearmen, swordsmen, lancers, archers, and heavy cavalry are all well-trained, well-equipped, and cost a lot of money to maintain. Among them are bronze daggers. , bronze broadswords, and most of the bronze spears have been eliminated. The spear tips they equipped are all made of iron. Long swords, daggers, and broadswords are also made of iron. Bronze shields, bronze breastplates, and bronze spears are also made of iron. Some equipment, but those are auxiliary troops. If your army is really 10,000 vs. 10,000 and confronts his main force, then the loser will definitely be your army with backward equipment."
Looking at Lin Fenghan who slowly lowered his head, Lemon Missy said with a proud smile: "How about it, now you know the strength of most of Duke Brant's army! In addition to these four legions, he also has a large navy. The city defense army, the army of nobles and vassals, totaling nearly 100,000 people, do you really think you can completely defeat him with your strength?"
"Are you threatening me?"
Lin Feng looked at Lemon Missy coldly and said.
"No!"
Lemon Missy shook his head and said, "I'm telling you his true strength!"
Lin Fenghan remained silent, tapping his fingers on the table, waited for a while, and then said: "I can help the royal family to contain and eliminate all Duke Brant's main legions that have entered the southern continent, but we will work together in Cape Watch and various coastal towns. Competition, whoever captures it belongs to whom. And my naval fleet can assist the royal navy to attack and support the naval battle against Duke Brant in the inner sea of ??Dancing Bay of the Kingdom. What do you think of this?"
"Um!"
Lemony Missy nodded gently and said seriously: "Baron, please take the trouble. Your naval fleet is indeed very powerful, and it can indeed help the royal family regain the provinces in the country. But here I want to tell you the third little thing. Request, the Prime Minister and His Majesty are very interested in the ancient technology bronze cannon you possess, I wonder if Your Excellency the Baron can tell the royal family the secret recipe of this technology and the flame potion."
Lin Fenghan saw Lemon Missy's body trembled, and thought to himself, the mixed gunpowder and the bronze cannon are the sharp weapons of the country, how can they be given to others lightly? He shook his head and refused: "Your Excellency Lemon Missy, the bronze cannon and the mixed gunpowder Gunpowder is a test product and is very dangerous. Many times when the cannon is fired, it doesn't sound at all, or it always smokes and has no power. I will not show off this thing, lest it suddenly catches fire and hurts the royal soldiers."
Lemon Missy looked at Lin Fenghan who was a little excited, and immediately felt a chill in his heart. He said softly: "Since this mixture of gunpowder and bronze cannon is so unsafe, then this matter will not be discussed."
"okay!"
Lin Fenghan slowly breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Lemon Missy and said with a smile: "Now that we have initially formed an alliance, I would like to ask what kind of support the royal family can give to our Elante family."
¡°Wheat, barley, millet, corn, lentils, peas and other grains.¡±
"Iron swords, iron spears, leather armor, composite leather armor, iron-inlaid shields, bow strings, bows and arrows. I can transport these things to the Ellant Islands and Waterdeep City through the royal port on merchant ships."
"good!"
Lin Fenghan quickly clapped his hands and said: "The royal family is so sincere, so I won't be polite. I need?500,000 bags of grain of 50 kilograms. "
"What?"
"25,000,000 kilograms of grain is equivalent to 25,000 tons."
"Baron, you are such a big talker!"
Lemon Missy stood up in shock, pointed at Lin Fenghan and said, "Baron, do you know how many grain warehouses are needed to store these 25 million kilograms of grain?"
"Whenever taxes are collected, food is gathered from knight villages and noble fiefdoms to various towns. On the way to various castles and cities, part of the food needs to be consumed. A standard granary covering an area of ????50 square meters can accommodate For 50,000 kilograms of grain, a city has ten to a hundred standard granaries depending on its size. For example, in a large city like Waterdeep, there can be hundreds of granaries, holding tens of millions of kilograms of grain."
"But food is not something that can be stored and moved easily. It will mold, germinate, and deteriorate, and needs to be guarded. Moreover, this food is a necessity. Soldiers, citizens, officials, and nobles in every city need to eat it. If If everything is delivered to you, then the city¡¯s supply will be interrupted and all kinds of chaos will occur.¡±
Lemon Missy put her hands on her temples in thought and said: "After my preliminary calculations, our royal family will give you 200,000 bags of grain support of about 1,000 kilograms in addition to ensuring the city's needs. The specific weight will not be discussed until I return."
"200,000 bags!" Lin Fenghan lowered his head and thought: "1 bag of 50 kilograms, 100 kilograms of grain, each person consumes at least one kilogram of grain every day, 1 bag of grain is enough for 3 people to consume for a month, 10,000 bags of grain is enough for 30,000 people For one month of consumption, 200,000 bags are enough for 600,000 people to consume for one month, and enough for 200,000 people to consume for 3 months. In 3 months, plus the grain reserves in my territory, I can persist even if there is no new grain harvest during the war. Until June next year.¡±
"But anything can happen during the war. Once the granary is burned and the war lasts longer, there will inevitably be a shortage of food in the Elant territory. It seems that I need to go to other coastal cities and other countries to buy food."
Lin Fenghan lowered his head and murmured, then slowly raised his head and stood up. He stretched out his hand towards Lemon Missy and said, "I am very grateful to the royal family for their assistance to our Elante family, and to Your Excellency for your hard work and coming all the way to tell me about the current political situation. situation and regional combat readiness."
"There are snow-capped mountains, lakes, and forests near Shenmu City. You can stay here for a few more days. I will definitely entertain you."
Lemony Missy reached out and held Lin Fenghan's right hand, and said with a smile: "I appreciate your kindness, but the royal family's tasks are very heavy and the responsibilities are heavy. I will leave tomorrow to go back and tell the prime minister. I would like to thank the Baron for your hospitality. .¡±
"You're welcome, this is my invitation." Lin Fenghan smiled and invited this elegant, quiet and aristocratic young man to play together.
