"Colin, you sent that Cathy to the Eastern Border Army camp, will it work?"
Inside the palace, Queen Aisha raised her head from a pile of documents and stretched her body, revealing her beautiful curves to Colin.
"Why would it not work?" Colin laughed, his eyes unrestrainedly admiring the half-elf beauty in front of him.
Queen Aisha personally poured a cup of deer blood wine for Colin and another for herself. She doubtfully asked: "We just used Prince William to trick them once, will they fall for it again?"
Colin drank the wine in one gulp and asked: "Do you know how the hunters of the Northern Frontier hunt Direwolves?"
Queen Aisha shook her head. Although she did not understand why Colin suddenly changed the topic, she still looked at Colin with her bright eyes, indicating for him to continue.
"Direwolves, especially white wolves, are extremely difficult to deal with.
Their fighting strength is extremely strong, and most hunters will not choose to fight them head on, because the Direwolf's final counterattack will cause the hunter to pay a heavy price. Therefore, the best way to deal with them is to use traps.
However, Direwolves are very smart, and when they come across small animal corpses in the forest, they will not touch them at all, because they also understand that it is very likely that it is a bait set by the hunter.
The experienced hunter's way of dealing with this is to chase after the Direwolf and constantly harass it, not giving it a chance to fight back, but at the same time, not allowing it to hunt in peace.
After a long time, the Direwolf will be tortured by exhaustion and hunger. At this time, it will also not be able to resist the temptation of small animal corpses.
Even if it is likely to be a hunter's trap, it will still feel lucky and think that if it swallows the bait, it will still have the strength to fight back. "
Queen Aisha nodded thoughtfully: "So, Cathy is the bait you threw out. Even if it is easy for Marquis Vincent to see through it, you still think that he will not be able to resist the temptation."
"Yes. Right now, the Eastern Army is like a white wolf that is exhausted and in a dilemma. If you throw it a bait, even if it knows that it may be a trap, it will still bite it. "
"Indeed." Queen Aisha's eyes were bright, and her tall and beautiful nose and slightly pursed red lips gave her a demure and intelligent temperament. "But why do I feel that your plan seems to be a little impatient?"
Colin sighed and nodded. "Yes, that's true. In fact, the best way for us is to continue wasting time with the Eastern people. Silvermoon City had enough surplus food, but the Eastern Region people's escape route had been cut off by the Black Cavalry, so it was impossible for them to get supplies.
As long as this stalemate continued for another two or three months, the people of the Eastern Region would really fall into a dilemma.
If we throw out the bait now, it may lead to a fierce counterattack from the Eastern Region. "
"Then why did you …"
Colin gestured for Queen Aisha to pour him another glass of wine. He frowned and said, "I'm worried about the Northern Frontier."
"The Northern Frontier?"
"Yes. I haven't received a letter from Icestone City for a long time. I suspect that the Eastern Army outside the city has blocked the news. "
"Why are you worried about the Northern Frontier?"
"Because I gradually realized that my initial judgment of two things may have been a little wrong."
"Which two things?"
Colin drank another glass of deer blood wine and said, "The first thing is the mastermind behind Sith Savoy.
At first, I thought that it was the Duke Of St. Hilde who ordered him to kill Vera, but now I feel that the truth of the matter may not be so.
Sith was introduced to me by Prince Okamoto, which means that the Savoy family is related to the Trolls.
Then, is it possible that the Trolls were behind the assassination of Vera? They want to completely trigger the conflict between the Northern Frontier and the Eastern Region so that they can have a chance to breathe.
The second thing is that Black Cavalry was ambushed in the Shadow Canyon.
It seems that the Duke Of St. Hilde is trying to eliminate the unstable elements in the Northern Frontier.
But if you think about it carefully, there is a problem. How could the Duke Of St. Hilde get the Eastern Region to cooperate with him to get rid of his brother? Wouldn't the Eastern Region be worried that this is a trap deliberately set by the Saint Hilde brothers? "
"So, you suspect that this series of events is a conspiracy of the Trolls?"
"It is indeed possible. But I also doubt that the Trolls have the ability to complete such a grand plan. When did they have such a huge influence in the Radiant Empire? How can they mobilize so many forces to serve their plan? "
"Maybe the Trolls have other collaborators in the Radiant Empire."
"Yes. It is also possible that the Duke Of St. Hilde is also involved. Although he is not the mastermind behind the scenes, I am afraid that he is one of the collaborators. After all, these two things are obviously beneficial to him. "
"Then, what are you worried about?"
"I am worried that the Duke Of St. Hilde will accidentally cause trouble for himself and cause the already weakened Northern Frontier to fall into chaos again … So, we can't waste any more time with the Eastern Region. I want to end this war as soon as possible!"

Eastern Region Army Camp.
Cathy felt uneasy in the face of Marquis Vincent's intense gaze.
After a moment, she gritted her teeth and truthfully said: "Yes, sir, I was indeed sent by Viscount Angley."
Marquis Vincent smiled proudly and praised himself for his wit. He then leaned back in his chair and asked: "What did he send you here for?"
"He told me to tell you that there will be a rebellion at the South Gate of Silvermoon City tonight. The boulders blocking the gate will be removed and your army can take this opportunity to rush into the city …"
"Haha, then when my army rushes in, they will discover that there are many soldiers in the city, waiting for me. Then, my army will be stationed at the south city gate, and the Black Guards outside the city will be able to charge out from the back and attack from both sides, right?"
"Yes." Cathy lowered her head, as if she did not dare to look into Marquis Vincent's eyes.
"Clumsy plan, haha, do you really think I will be fooled …"
Marquis Vincent suddenly paused. He seemed to have realized something and suddenly stood up from his seat and quickly walked back and forth in the tent.
Cathy carefully raised her head and saw Marquis Vincent's face full of struggle.
After a long time, he suddenly stopped and asked again: "Do you know the specific deployment of the half-elf army in the South Gate?"
Cathy shook her head awkwardly. "My Lord, this … How would I know …"
Marquis Vincent fell into deep thought again, the anxiety on his face almost overflowing.
He realized that the current situation might be a chance for Sky Horse Legion to turn the tables. The South Gate was a bait placed in front of him by Colin.
Although he knew that behind the bait was a trap, Marquis Vincent could not help but want to take a gamble …
At this moment, he was like a desperate gambler. As long as the banker gave him the slightest chance of winning, he would eagerly bet everything he had.
He wanted to turn the tables in one go.
Finally, Marquis Vincent smashed his fist into his own palm and said fiercely,
"Good! Colin Angele, let's see if you will trap Sky Horse Legion to death, or if Sky Horse Legion will eat your bait and tear your net apart! "
