Chapter 282 (2/2)
“No, that wouldn't be very useful,” Roland said slowly, “Ulti another offensive, I will first have to reduce the population he can enforce Secondly, I will have to make him realize that a war of attrition would not make any sense, and also implant a fear of ould happen if he ever tries to invades the Western Territory again Originally I had intended to have Barov spread the news that the Western Territory had opened up new land, and in this way attract those people living outside of the cities, but now it seems that this would have been much too slow, and the ather those people before Timothy can lay his hands on them, it will have to happen in the sa the initiative to go and recruit them The most important area is the Southern Territory which has been suffering under the constant fladom I estimate that I will need to dispatch the First Army if I want to carry out this plan”
“If you merely want to recruit, I believe that a teaested without hesitation, “After all, on't operate in the city vicinity, so there will be no need to worry about any confrontation with the enemy”
“First let ain,” Roland nodded
The main force needs to remain inside of Border Town as a defensive measure Furthermore, the team which will be sent out has to be back before the Months of Deins Furtherold royals and food: A more active attraction policy will naturally pull in more people, but at the saraood cost-effective, but noith an important objective, it is even more necessary to carefully consider how it should be implemented
“Regarding the second point you mentioned… what do you plan to do?”
“First we have to let off the news by sending the captive co's City This way Timothy will be able to beco hi like this is to no avail, so he should never try and do it again”
“However, by doing this, our artillery warfare will also be exposed” Iron Axe interjected in worry
“We didn’t reveal anything of value,” Roland said, while tapping on the table, “Besides learning about the long striking range and the incredible power, he won't be able to learn the principle, so he won't be able toas the level of industrialization remains at the current era's, he won’t be able to resist even if he’s already aware of it Hot weapons are just too overwhelood tactics, and a large number of people, it will still be nearly impossible to reverse the situation “Also, those people will also send hi letter”
“Warning Letter?”
“That's right, the letter will be a notice containing the date and ti’s City on that day” The Prince cal each word
“…” For a long tiing wide open in shock Then by the time he came back to hiave a salute, and said, “As long as you order it, I will give my life for victory!”
“Relax, I'ave a reassuring smile “My plan does not need the First Army to participate; the witches will do it on their own”
How is it possible to make Ti else than a direct attack against the palace would ever shake hi troops should vanish, after he realizes that there is no place where he will ever be safe
Roland envisioned the dropping of leaflets out of planes during later generations However, instead of delivering leaflets, Roland intended to send Timothy two bo fro with it wasrole, it could still be considered as a successful mission
However, whether the other side would stop insisting on launching a large-scale attack because of this would be very difficult to determine
Roland was clearly aware of the fact that the pattern of the Battle for the Throne had changed He was now longer was so weak that he needed to disguise hi It was now finally ti up to Graycastle's political stage, finally do to do with any desire to show off, rather it was intended to propagandize the power of his territory
It was useless to obtain a kingdom in ruins, and fields that were plastered with corpses He hoped that with this declaration, even more people would be motivated to travel to the Western Territory and stand by his side
As the sun sunk behind the mountains, Roland opened the s of his office The evening breeze brushi+ng past his face, no longer was it burning hot, instead it contained a trace of chill
