Chapter 999： snow (2/2)

There was a bone-thinning cold wind, and Pei Dinan felt that his arms and knees had been penetrated by the cold wind. He finally couldn't help holding up the breath protective barrier to block the cold wind from the north, dispelling his body and his surroundings. Snow fluttering, and couldn’t help smiling bitterly in the wind-no matter how formidable General Wolf, he will eventually get old, but when he was young, he never thought that his old self would Standing so alone in the courtyard in the wind and snow.

Andesa, who is far away from Cecil, should be okay... The Cecilians shouldn't criticize a general who took the initiative to lay down his arms. Is anyone with her in such a cold winter?

A voice came from the side, interrupting Pei Dinan's thoughts: "My lord, the wind is getting stronger, you should go back to the house and rest."

Pei Dinan followed the sound and turned his head and saw that the butler who had been with him for many years was standing in the snow. A lot of snowflakes had fallen on his shoulders, but he was still standing straight in the wind, meticulously like a sculpture.

The grateful time was over, and Peri Dinan's expression became serious again. He once again became the formidable knight lord, nodded with majesty, turned and walked towards the porch, while the butler lifted accurately after half a step behind. He followed his legs, and smoothly brushed the snowflakes off his shoulders.

"You sent a servant to the market in the morning," Pei Dinan asked casually under the porch, "How is the order over there?"

"Prices have stabilized, and the panic situation has improved a lot," the butler replied immediately. "People are still a little nervous, but they are no longer the kind of bewildered fear-everyone is more worried about the price of food. It won’t rise again and care about when this war will result."

"How many people discuss the church?"

"There are discussions everywhere, but it has been rare to see people who question the Knights of the Guardian Order or the Obsidian Forbidden Army, or those who support the church radically-at least not in public," the butler continued, "those public evil spirits. The purification ceremony, detailed reports on the contaminated altars and rooms in the church, and live pictures have a great deterrent effect on ordinary people. Even devout believers will say that evil spirits have defiled the church at this time, instead of insisting. The Ares Church is clean and flawless..."

Pei Dinan nodded slightly, the serious expression on his face seemed to relax slightly.

The atmosphere in the city is getting better-although some of the nobles are restless every day, some speculative businessmen are nervous, and there is a little more nervousness in the upper class, but the overall order of Aldernan But it quickly and miraculously stabilized, and the operation of each key department is also improving in a visible range.

The supply of key materials such as food and medicine has stabilized. Several premeditated price hikes and interception of materials have been suppressed. Some of the **** of war officials have tried to fight against the blockade order. But before they acted, the obsidian forbidden army and defending the country The Knights have suppressed and dismantled all rebellious acts. In fact, as early as a month ago, the churches of God of War across the country had been closely monitored by troops loyal to the royal family. Although some of the troops unexpectedly lost control, the whole Everything above is still under the control of Obsidian Palace.

There were people who worried that the temporary closure of the parliament would cause long-term and unquenchable chaos for the ruling order of the entire empire, but Rosetta Augustus and his royal cabinet and emergency advisory team used extremely high efficiency and determination. The execution power has proved everything to the world, and now everything is beginning to develop in a good direction.

At least at this stage.

The old duke pressed his chest subconsciously, and he touched a hard object the size of a pocket watch-there was a special talisman, the power of the talisman was slowly flowing at this moment, infiltrating and protecting himself. This amulet made him feel at ease for a while, but it also made him understand that some things are far from over.

...

Since the beginning of the war, intelligence from the front has been continuously transmitted through the communication towers distributed throughout the empire, gathered to Aldernan, and gathered on the book case of Rosetta Augustus.

The war itself may be something that many people don’t want to see, but some of the “harvest” brought about by the war are also real. For the rulers of the empire, the biggest gain is intelligence—about the enemy. Information about yourself, and also about yourself.

Rosetta's eyes moved slowly over a document, and Matilda stood quietly beside him.

In this document, many detailed information related to the "magic mechanized units" of the Cecils are mentioned, including the various war machines that can operate automatically, the equipment and combat methods of the Cecil infantry, and the enemy's Tactical thinking and macro-layout speculation, including a summary of Typhon’s own military reports.

Every life on the battlefield has turned into experience and reflection on these thin sheets of paper-whether it is for Cecil or Typhon, this is the first time in history that a comparable opponent and himself have appeared. Conduct this extensive and deep confrontation on the frontal battlefield.

Both sides of the war were learning experience. Rosetta looked at the intelligence in his hand, and he believed that there must be something similar in the book case of Gawain Cecil.

"Your previous judgment was correct, Matilda." After a long time, Rosetta raised her gaze and looked at the eldest daughter beside her, "We must further introduce magic technology into the military field, just let It’s not enough for soldiers to ride in magic carts or use factories to produce some weapons. The Cecils have great war potential-although they are now in a stalemate with us, their growth rate over time Sooner or later, it will surpass us, and the gap in between is on the one hand magical technology and on the other hand their...thinking way."

"Andesa once told me that she has been worried that we and the Cecilians are in a continuous war-their war machine has a short production cycle, soldiers are trained quickly, and everything can be lost, and our Army of Transcendents Although it has been much better than traditional troops, it still can't keep up with the speed of the Cecils in this area... The long battle is very detrimental to us."

"...Time, so we need time," Rosetta said slowly, "I hope we have enough time."
