On the God of War, life was still peaceful. Two months ago, a beastman army suddenly appeared outside the city, causing everyone to be nervous for a few days. However, seeing that the beastman army didn't seem to have any intention of attacking, everyone gradually relaxed.
Today was the same as usual. Those who needed to train went to train, and those who needed to chat chatted. Guevara and Majordomo Gail sat and drank together, which had become their daily routine. Only Jeddis could not find time to come back because he was busy with academic affairs. Sometimes, they would not even see each other for a few days.
Standing at the side of the ship, Dominique was looking into the distance. Suddenly, she paused and said softly, "Raphael is back."
The peaceful atmosphere was instantly broken. Morrisons and the others rushed to Dominique's side and followed her gaze. Even Guevara and Majordomo Gail put down their wine glasses. Unlike Morrisons and the others, they were very anxious. Spring was coming, and the horn of war was about to be blown. But Han Jin had not returned. Without someone to make decisions, how could they fight this war?
As the saying goes, plans cannot keep up with changes. The appearance of the orc army made all the plans that Lang Ning had drawn up useless. Guevara and Lang Ning once again had different opinions. Guevara had always maintained his old but firm style. He advocated using the God of War's air superiority to launch an attack, while Lang Ning advocated defending the city to the death. He believed that the orc army had come a long way, so their supplies would not be able to keep up. With the resources of Wild Willow City, it was already very difficult for them to sustain the consumption of the elven army. With the addition of the orcs, Wild Willow City would definitely be worn down. Therefore, he insisted on slowing down the pace of the war and trying to defend until autumn before launching a counterattack.
Although Han Jin rarely interfered with military affairs, there were some things that required his approval. Just like now, Guevara and Lang Ning could not convince each other, so only Han Jin could make the decision.
On the horizon, a dense smoke appeared, which was moving towards the direction of the Holy Crown City. That smoke also aroused the vigilance of the orc warriors. Hundreds of orc warriors riding Gale Wolves were galloping on both sides of the smoke, monitoring it. However, no orc dared to rush into the smoke.
"It's Harley." Guevara whispered, "Stillberg!"
"Here!" Stillberg hurriedly replied and trotted to the main seat. The huge body of the God of War slowly began to move in the direction of the smoke.
In fact, this was the second time that Stillberg had piloted the God of War. After the orc army arrived, the orc shamans controlled a large group of thunderbirds to attack the Holy Crown City. They wanted to take advantage of the situation and test the Holy Crown City's strength. Guevara immediately ordered Stillberg to fight. At that time, Hogan had already completed the transformation. The number of cannons on each side of the God of War had reached 270 or 80. Hogan himself had also mastered the adjustment of the cannons after a long period of practice. The orc shamans had never thought that the God of War had such a fierce long-range attack ability. It actually allowed a large group of thunderbirds to launch a dense charge. The God of War only fired the first volley, and more than 60 thunderbirds were shot down. The orc shamans saw that the situation was not good, so they controlled the thunderbirds to retreat. Hogan ordered the magicians to fire two volleys in a row. The battle ended in only 20 seconds. Hundreds of thunderbirds were hit by the magic crystal cannons, either dead or wounded. The feathers that fell from the sky were like a heavy snowfall.
The orc shamans were not reconciled. They controlled a small group of thunderbirds to attack, trying to consume the magic crystals on the God of War. The shamans did not know that the God of War also had a group of thunderbirds. Perhaps, they had heard about it from the elves, but they did not take it to heart. The ability to communicate with magical beasts was the innate ability of the orc shamans. They did not think that anyone could do it better than them.
Little Gold Bolt saw that its own kind had invaded its territory, and it was already angry. As soon as Hogan gave the order, it could not wait to lead its companions to rush out. At the same time, thousands of gargoyles also rose into the air. Their task was to protect the thunderbirds on both sides, up and down, and try their best to disrupt the enemy's spiritual lock. When necessary, they would also use their own bodies to block the attacks for the thunderbirds.
The result could be imagined. Little Gold Bolt and its companions had been nourished by the spiritual beast sacrifice materials, so their fighting power was much stronger than the thunderbirds. Plus, with the protection of the gargoyles, they did not suffer any casualties. In the blink of an eye, more than 20 thunderbirds were all shot down.
Since then, the orc shamans did not make any provocations. The people on the God of War were also happy and did not harass the orcs. After all, Stillberg's ability was limited, and it was difficult for him to take on a fierce battle. Everyone did not have high confidence in him. If Han Jin was here, then it would be a different story.
Soon, the God of War and the smoke merged together. Stillberg steered the God of War around the hull and slowly flew towards the Holy Crown City. The orc warriors were still swimming around the smoke. Obviously, they did not want to start a fight. They were just worried that something in the smoke would attack them, so they came close to monitor.
Adonis, who was patrolling on the city wall, personally led a team of Light Knights to open the city gate. A carriage rushed out of the smoke and rushed into the city gate first, followed by dozens of guards. Finally, a handsome unicorn came out of the smoke, and Han Jin was sitting on it.
Seeing Han Jin, Adonis let out a long sigh of relief. No matter how the Church felt about Han Jin, everyone knew that without Han Jin, there would be no Holy Crown City. How could they spread the doctrine of Light under the rule of the elves and orcs? That would be an unimaginable disaster!
The God of War arrived above the Holy Crown City first and threw down a suspension ladder. Guevara, Majordomo Gail, and the others jumped down from the suspension ladder. As soon as the carriage below heard the news, two girls in magic robes rushed out of the carriage and looked around with interest.
Soon, Lesley saw the God of War above her head and could not help but scream. She pulled Loraine with her hands and said, "Look! Look!! "
Anchored at such a close distance, the God of War easily gave people a visual impact. The hull of the ship was simply too huge, and its entire body was a dignified pale green color. Under the illumination of the sun, it shone brightly.
"Yalina, what is that?" Loraine was also stunned.
"The God of War." Yalina, who was the last to get out of the carriage, smiled and said, "It is a magic prop made by Raphael himself." Speaking of this, Yalina slightly raised the corner of her mouth. She now understood that Han Jin was not a magician. However, this was a family secret, so of course, she could not tell outsiders.
"Oh my god … such a huge magic prop?!" Lesley and Loraine's faces were full of admiration, and they could not help but turn their eyes to Han Jin, who had just walked in from outside.
Guevara and Majordomo Gail were walking down from the city wall. When Majordomo Gail saw Lesley and Loraine, he could not help but be stunned. Lesley's eyes were sharp, and she saw Majordomo Gail at the same time. She smiled and said, "Uncle Gail!!"
Majordomo Gail showed a bitter smile and said, "Why are you here?" The current situation was very dangerous. In case of an accident, he had to do everything possible to protect Yalina. Now there were two more girls, which gave him a headache.
"It was Yalina who invited us," Lesley shouted.
"You don't welcome us?" In comparison, Loraine had her own thoughts. She could see Majordomo Gail's helplessness.
On the other side, Guevara and Han Jin's eyes met. Guevara could not help but be stunned. He felt that Han Jin seemed to have become somewhat unfamiliar. Although it was indeed Han Jin in front of him, and although that bright smile was Han Jin's signature smile, he still felt that something was wrong.
Everyone gathered together and exchanged greetings. Yalina also introduced Lesley and Loraine to everyone. The next step was the meeting. Han Jin had been gone for too long, and there were some things that were still unresolved. Han Jin also knew that he had to instill his new ideas as soon as possible.
Lang Ning came, and so did Alin Sanret. Jedis also brought the three Saint Knight onto the God of War. Even the manager of the Night of Bliss, Hallister, was there. It could be said that this was a plenary meeting of the entire group. Not a single one of the core members was missing.
Because the current situation was very bad, government affairs had to make way for military affairs. Lang Ning took the lead and submitted his new plan, waiting for Han Jin's decision.
Lesley and Loraine were also lucky enough to attend the meeting. At first, Yalina was worried that these two girls would cause some trouble, but the result was far beyond her expectations. In terms of status, Lesley and Loraine were both noble ladies who were extremely spoiled by their families. However, in the real whirlpool of power, they were only marginal figures. To put it more clearly, if someone bullied them, their families would definitely do anything to get revenge. However, when it came to important matters such as how to choose, how to choose, and so on, they were not qualified to participate.
This was the first time they had attended a meeting with such a solemn atmosphere, and it made them feel like they were being valued. They had to admit that being spoiled and being valued were two completely different things. Affected by the atmosphere, even the outgoing and lively Lesley's face tensed up. Her pair of big eyes widened even more. She pursed her lips and carefully observed the people around her, including Han Jin, who was sitting in the middle.
Han Jin slowly flipped through Lang Ning's plan. The people around him were silent, waiting for Han Jin to make a decision.
At this moment, Lang Ning's personal guard jumped in from below the gangway. He walked up to Lang Ning and whispered, "General, Schumann wants to see Sir."
Lang Ning frowned. Just as he was about to speak, Han Jin had already heard the commotion. He whispered, "Lang Ning, have you been in contact with Schumann these days?"
"A few times."
"What do you think of him as a person?"
"He's responsible and somewhat smart. I can't see anything else." Lang Ning's answer was very cautious.
"Hmm …" Han Jin raised his head and said to the guard, "Let him come up."
Soon, Schumann climbed up the gangway. When he saw so many people present, he was startled. Lang Ning, Yalin Sanret, Jedis, and so on, almost all the big shots he had seen were present. Compared to this scene, he knew that the things in his mind were insignificant, so he quietly hid in a corner.
Han Jin had already finished reading Lang Ning's plan. He gently put it aside and said, "Your plan is too conservative."
"What?" Lang Ning was stunned.
"What do you think?" Han Jin looked at Guevara.
"Lang Ning only saw the difficulties of the enemy, but our difficulties are greater!" Guevara slowly said, "When spring comes, the elves and orcs will definitely attack the six citadels of the Holy Crown City. What's the point of defending the Holy Crown City? We can defend it this year, but what about next year? In the past, I agreed with Lang Ning's plan because our enemy was only the elves. But now, with the addition of the orcs, it's different. I think, everyone knows how barbaric and cruel the orcs are! They will slaughter our people everywhere and even turn our Acropolis into a ghost town! "
"I agree with Guevara's opinion." Jedis continued, "Civilians and Farmer are our foundation. If we lose them, we lose our future. Even if we can defend the Holy Crown City, what can we do? Everyone, I ask you to think about it. We can sit here all day, drinking and having fun, without any lack of food and clothing. Who is the one who provides for us? Now, the one who provides for us is going to fall into hell. Shouldn't we do something? "
Han Jin slowly nodded.
"Sir!" Lang Ning was anxious, "Our military power is limited and far inferior to the elves. Now we have to challenge the allied forces of the elves and orcs. This is simply …"
"An egg hitting a rock?" Han Jin said with a smile.
"This …" Lang Ning was stunned and felt that this metaphor was appropriate. He nodded and said loudly, "Yes, it is impossible for us to win!"
"Yes, the allied forces of the elves and orcs are much stronger than us. It is indeed like an egg hitting a rock …" Han Jin said softly, "But first, we have to figure out what kind of rock we are going to hit." At this point, Han Jin suddenly paused and immediately burst into laughter. He found that he had been immersed in Solomon's comments, and as a result, even his tone of speech was close to Solomon's style. This was not good. Inheriting and imitating were not the same, absolutely not the same! The reason why Solomon didn't give him any suggestions was because he wanted Han Jin to develop his own inner qualities and style for the future!
Han Jin's laughter made everyone confused. They all looked at each other. Dominique suddenly said, "You have changed. You have become different from before."
"Really?" Han Jin looked at Dominique with a smile.
"Yes," Dominique replied in a positive tone.
Guevara, Jedis, and everyone else stared at Han Jin. He was really different. They were facing a disaster at this moment! However, Han Jin smiled so casually and so casually, as if he did not care about anything.
"When Yalina and I went to the Capital of Elements, we encountered an orc army on the way." Han Jin changed the topic. "On the way back, I deliberately took a detour into the forest and found traces of a large number of troops. This proved that Forza had sent two armies."
"Also, what Mr. Guevara said was not going to happen, but had already happened. Now, it is still happening." Han Jin continued, "I went to Fort Maxine on the way. You should know the situation there very well. After all, we were stationed there before. If you have the chance to go there again, you won't believe your eyes, because it has become another Black Raven City. "
After listening to Han Jin's words, the atmosphere became more and more solemn.
"The men were killed and even became food for the orcs. The women were raped and sent to the barracks as military prostitutes. This is the gift the orcs have given us. If we do not resist, their gift will become heavier and heavier." Han Jin said softly, "Can you really bear it? How long can you bear it? "
"My Lord, I can understand your feelings, but …" Lang Ning wanted to say something, but stopped.
"Lang Ning, you did not see what happened in Fort Maxine. Otherwise, you would never say 'but'." Han Jin paused: "I know, you want to say that we can't be emotional in war, and only by keeping calm can we defeat the enemy. You also want to say that it doesn't matter, because war always means disaster. For example, aren't there many female elven slaves in our Holy Crown City? But … you have to know, we may not be responsible for the elves, but we must be responsible for the humans. "
"I …" Ronning was rendered speechless by the rebuttal.
"And, you did not listen to me carefully," Han Jin stretched out two fingers. "Lord Fossa of Fatto City sent out two armies! One army went through the swamp area to Wild Willow City, and the other army secretly crossed the forest. Do you know what this means? Such sneakiness … Who are they trying to hide from? Is it us? But we have been surrounded in Holy Crown City, so it is meaningless. " This time, Han Jin was very straightforward, but he was also a little disappointed. The difference between wisdom and cleverness was vividly demonstrated by Solomon and the people in front of him. Majordomo Gail was a strong man who could stand shoulder to shoulder with Guevara. Now he fully understood why he always showed such reverence to the old man in the distance.
"Fossa's real target is the elves?!" Guevara's eyes widened.
"Yes." Han Jin smiled. "So, Fossa has sent out all his armies."
Han Jin's words instantly made the hall boil. Lang Ning shouted, "How is that possible? He doesn't want his Fatto City anymore? "
"Compared to Wild Willow City, Beitman City, Black Raven City, Holy Crown City, Depew City, and Cold Shadow City, is Fatto City valuable?" Han Jin asked.
The atmosphere in the hall became even more lively. Even Guevara, Jedis, and the others showed joyful smiles. In the past, they were just trying to survive under the great pressure of the elves and orcs. After listening to Han Jin's words, they realized that they could also become dominators.
"Sir, but … why hasn't Fossa attacked the elves?" Lang Ning asked again.
"Because there are also wise elves, so Fossa hasn't found the right opportunity," Han Jin said slowly. "But, this is what I want to solve immediately."
