Working Prophet

Chapter 735 Lanita’s decision

Under the powerful deterrent force of Bailong, in less than ten days, Yanxue City has gathered more than 20,000 troops, and at this time there are still five days left before the deadline given by Lanita.

Counting those who are still on the road, there should be no problem in gathering 30,000 people.

Clovis originally thought that Lanita would personally lead the army to the Green Fields to have a showdown with Ilea, just like the battle between Vespasian and Joao.

However, the girl didn't seem to have any plans in this regard. She directly gave the position of coach to Clovis.

Clovis felt a little helpless, "I'm too old and have no experience in leading troops in battle. I'm afraid I won't be able to lead this army to bring you the victory you want."

Lanita glanced at the old man. The latter was indeed a bit too old. Even among the orcs, he had a long life.

It's okay to guard Yanxue City at this age, but it's obviously unrealistic to expect him to go out to fight again.

"Then do you have anyone to recommend?" the girl asked again.

"Fabry, the Patriarch of the Popo Family, is a well-known commander in the West, and Sir Camzi from Red Tower City was once the most trusted subordinate of the late Marquis Cullen.

"There is also Glenn of Graycastle. Although he is not yet thirty years old, like his father, he is already a well-known warrior..."

"Very well, gather all the people you mentioned, give them fifty people each, and let them fight a battle. The final winner will be the commander of this army."

Lanita said simply, and then looked at Clovis, "Any more questions?"

Clovis paused, then continued, "The lords outside still want to know how they will cooperate with you and your dragon after they arrive in the green field."

"My dragon and I are not going into battle."

Clovis frowned, "You started this war, but you don't plan to take action?"

"I used the entire Western Territory to put a bounty on Ilea and Merlin's heads, but in the end I had to do it myself?"

Lanita said in surprise, "Then why do I come to you? Are you here to cheer and applaud me?"

Although the girl's words were unpleasant, Clovis could not refute them.

However, the old man later said truthfully, "Some lords are worried that the current manpower is not enough to take down Teacup Castle."

"How many warriors do the Arias family and the Shuangxiu sect have now? Eight thousand, ten thousand? The number of you is three times that of theirs."

"However, Sir Ilea has also defeated an enemy several times stronger than herself in the Dragon's Back Mountain Range before, and this time the battle took place in her territory, and she is more familiar with it than any of us.

"In addition, the morale of our army is not as good as that of the opponent. Many lords have to send troops because they are afraid of your dragon and the army behind them. It is unknown how much strength they can exert in battle."

Clovis made it clear, "Of course, if you let the white dragon join the battle, then all these problems will be solved, and the morale of the soldiers will also be greatly improved."

"Unfortunately, this is impossible." Lanita refused, "We Yi people have always admired the brave, and killing Ilea and Merlin is a necessary test for becoming the new master of this land.

"If you can't even pass this simple test, Lord Solomon will not agree to entrust the Western Territory, but..." The girl changed the subject.

"Although I won't take action directly, I can help you a little. This doesn't count as disobeying Lord Solomon's order."

"If I can find you another 30,000 people, are you sure you can defeat the Arias family?"

"Find another 30,000 people?" Clovis was startled when he heard this, "Where can we find them?"

"As far as I know, there are still noble families in the Western Region who have ignored our call, or they have only sent a few people over symbolically. I have given them a chance, but since they are still stubborn, don't blame me for being rude. ”

Lanita's idea was very simple. There was something strange about Ilea and the Shuangxiu Cult behind her. Many members of the Wing Tribe and a dragon had fallen on their hands before.

Lanita does not intend to rashly intervene in the next war before she understands their specific strength.

But this does not mean that she can only stay in Rock Snow City. She can continue to use the intimidating power of the dragon to drive other families as much as possible against the Arias family.

Just like what she said to Clovis before, if 30,000 people are not enough, then 60,000 people, and if it is not enough, then 90,000 people... Even mills can give away the members of the Arias family and Shuangxiujiao. Grinding to death.

This solution may not be the quickest, but it is definitely the most likely to win and the safest.

In fact, Lanita couldn't see any possibility of failure. Even if the first army failed, she could still send the second army there.

And Lanita did what she said. That afternoon, she rode the White Queen to Iron Horn City, a city that belonged to the Moncent family.

Before the rise of the Arias family, the Moncent family was second only to the Figuerola family and the Emmanuel family in strength in the West.

Ironhorn City has the largest number of blacksmiths in the West and is famous for its rich production of weapons and armor.

Lanita flew to the sky above Iron Horn City, found the tallest building there, and rushed over with the White Queen.

The latter had already begun brewing dragon flames on the way. When it flew over Iron Horn City, the giant white dragon opened its huge mouth and poured out all the raging fire on the stone fortress at its feet.

Lanita vaguely heard the screams of humans coming from inside the fortress, but she didn't stay to admire her masterpiece, but turned around and left before the archers arrived.

Afterwards, the white dragon hovered over Iron Horn City for a while, setting fire to two markets and dozens of shops, until the people in the city were running for their lives in panic, and Lanita patted the white dragon's face neck.

One person and one dragon quickly disappeared into the sky.

And almost three days later, they reappeared in Beize, which was the territory of the Bathory family.

The latter is said to have always been a staunch ally of the Arias family, and the head of the family, Ferdinand, later converted to Saturday along with Ilea.

Lanita was extra cautious when attacking there, but she didn't encounter much resistance and succeeded easily.

However, Beize itself is adjacent to the river and has a rich water system, which makes it difficult for the fire to spread. Moreover, the people there seem to have got the news in advance, and they left their residences and hid by the river.

Lanita and Bailong's sudden attack only burned some houses, but failed to cause too many casualties.

This made the girl a little dissatisfied, so she continued to fly the dragon to the south, where nobles also refused to send troops.
