Chapter 271: The boiling Idar Territory! (Part 1)

Bruno had no intention of meeting Count Dale, at least not yet.

Because Bruno knew very well what a huge impact everything that happened in Idar County would have on those noble lords who were conservative and outdated in their thinking.

If Lord Dale's will is not strong enough,

maybe……

His outlook on life and values ​​would completely collapse the moment he entered Idar Territory...

What's more, at this moment, he has more important things to do.

With Sarah Coren joining Bruno's team, Idar's integration and adaptation of Mann's Fortress is nearing completion.

The specific implementation of the reorganization work was presided over by Baumil Braun, deputy director of the Idar Central Intelligence Agency.

According to Bruno's request, he will stay in Mann's Fortress until the war between Idar and the Odin people ends, guarding this important military fortress, which will become the "Southern Gate" of Idar, together with Quincy Bonnet, the former deputy of Sarah Coren.

As for Sarah Coren, the former garrison commander of Mann Fortress, she was transferred to the position of Chief of Staff of the Idar Army, responsible for assisting Sam Layton in formulating battle plans, and in the process gradually became familiar with the Idar army's combat ideas and methods.

Unlike the common situation of uneven quality of soldiers in other noble territories or border fortresses, Sarah Coren has always been very dedicated to her job and has never slacked off in the training of her soldiers.

Therefore, the soldiers of Fort Mann can be regarded as the best in the Imperial Army!

And a very important point is that most of these soldiers were born in the eastern part of the empire, so when Lord Idar recruited and reorganized them, there were no dissenting voices.

Their families live on this land that the Odins covet! Compared with the slogan of "fighting for the royal family of the Norman Empire", the slogan of fighting for oneself and one's family advocated by Idar seems to be more able to inspire the high morale of these soldiers.

Besides... after Baumil Braun explained to these imperial soldiers the treatment of the Idar army, they were all overjoyed and smiling.

Being a soldier is never an easy thing no matter when or where, and the pay and treatment enjoyed by the imperial soldiers of the Norman Empire are obviously not comparable to those of the Lord of Idar.

You know, the army is the largest gold-eating beast in Idar Territory, except for the construction of wonders!

The considerable military pay and high pensions not only relieved the Idar soldiers of their worries, but also greatly stimulated their enthusiasm.

In order to make these imperial troops from Mann Fortress adapt to the combat methods and rhythm of the Idar Territory's army as quickly as possible, the intensity of training these soldiers had to undergo during this period was terrifying! They sweated profusely in the cold morning breeze, and they stood resolutely under the scorching sun at noon.

Every training subject of Idar's regular army was also assigned to them, which made these imperial soldiers who were originally full of confidence in themselves complain bitterly.

But... they must adapt as quickly as possible, because the time left for them and Idar Territory is running out! ...

"This is the preliminary battle plan. If you have no questions, the Idar Army and Idar Territory's logistics personnel will be deployed according to this plan!"

The atmosphere in the study was solemn.

Led by Bruno, Army Commander Sam Layton, Navy Commander Mal Cullen, CIA Director Krell and Sarah Coren who had just joined the Idar Territory were also on the list.

The bleak winter brought Idar County more than three months of respite.

During this period, the Idar Lord not only built a grand magic transmission project, but also equipped the "Persuader Type I" magic submachine gun developed by the Idar Magic Array Research Laboratory to the vast majority of Idar soldiers.

At this moment, the critical moment has finally arrived! If there are no omissions in the information held by the Idar CIA, then it will only take a week at the latest for the Odin people to start organizing their march eastward, and within two weeks, they will launch the most fierce and violent crazy offensive against the Idar territory.

so……

The time has come to test the waters! Having already witnessed the powerful power of the magic rifle and magic cannon, everyone present has full confidence in defending the Idar Territory.

However... just like Bruno had said before, he was no longer satisfied with passive defense! At this moment, offense was the best defense!

This idea has become the consensus of the core ruling class of Idar County, with Bruno as the core.

Only by taking the initiative can the Idar army occupy the vast territory in the eastern part of the empire, obtain enough arable land and a considerable population, and thus lay the foundation for the next development of the Idar territory.

If you slow down one step, all steps will be slow. For the Idar Territory, this is a crucial point.

indeed!

Lord Idar's goal this time is very grand - to swallow up the vast territory of the eastern part of the empire in one breath.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

There is no doubt that such rapid expansion brings great risks.

but……

Risk and reward are directly proportional!

If the Idar Territory cannot take advantage of the precious opportunity when the Norman Empire is divided into the north and the south to consolidate its own strength and gain a foothold in the east of the empire...

Once the winner is decided between Rez and Pizman, no matter who will eventually gain the supreme power of the Norman Empire, Lord Idar will fall into an extremely passive situation.

Because any normal emperor would not allow a vassal under his rule who even dared to incorporate the royal army, nor would he allow a vassal who dared to disregard the agreement signed by the empire and provoke conflict with the Odin people.

so……

The only way for Lord Idar to break the impasse now is to confront the Odinites head-on and stabilize and restore the social order in the eastern part of the empire before the end of spring plowing!

Looking at the people present, Bruno said in a deep voice: "Starting a week ago, the Idar Daily began to gradually exert its strength."

"In the next few days, I will order the Merlin News Agency to publish a special edition to guide the people of Idar to have confidence and enthusiasm in fighting against Odin's army. Even after the war begins, there will be war correspondents from the Merlin News Agency who will deliver news from the front lines to the people of Idar at any time, so..."

"I have only one request for you... Win this war based on the combat strategy we have formulated!"

No more.
