The brave man opened the coffin and rose

In the small kingdom of Łomza, the young king paced back and forth in his study.

"Still no news on General Paddy?"

Although he is young, he still grows a nice mustache to highlight his identity.

But now, the hypocritical age highlighted by this external object could not give him the courage to calm down.

Although General Paddy received his own orders, he was ready to roll around the border, clear out the surrounding threats, and strike around in preparation for next year's westward expedition.

However, no matter how much a general is subject to military orders when he is away from home, he still feels a little scared after not having any news for a whole month.

The small kingdom of Wommza is not very big, and the army has useful talents such as magicians, so there should be no problem in greeting and reporting on daily basis.

Now Paddy has a large number of troops under his command. What if he has any ideas and wants to replace me?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shudder.

When I was young and ignorant a few years ago, I was indeed a bit domineering and did not take the people seriously.

In addition, the legal system in the North is in chaos, and cases of rebellion are endless. If General Paddy has a large army, it would be easy for him to come up with some reasonable excuses.

Therefore, when he found that General Paddy had not sent back any news for a long time, he was in a state of restlessness.

"Your Majesty, not yet..." This time, the message that came back was still that there was no news.

"No! Try to contact them again. This time, send someone to contact them manually! Tell those old guys in the Mage Tower not to wait for any more teleportation spells!"

The young king pulled at the matted hair on his forehead, then turned and growled.

"We must find out... where that guy's thousands of troops are."

After all, the small kingdom of Łomza was named after a small country, and in reality it was only the size of a few counties. Thousands of people were indeed a large local army.

After issuing the order, he sat back at his desk and carefully analyzed the secret report in front of him.

These are the news coming from towns and cities.

Maybe one or two of them are useless, just some nonsense like "How are you, Your Majesty?" and "People are celebrating the autumn harvest today."

But the fact that he was able to send a message back means that this person is safe, there is nothing unusual in that area, no natural disasters or man-made disasters, and there is a high probability that there is no human conspiracy, and business and people's livelihood are probably relatively stable.

By putting together this large amount of nonsense, the king can understand the changes in the domestic situation.

This was the knowledge his father, who favored his eldest brother, had taught him.

My father said… “This is the kingly way.”

But so what? Didn’t it still take the throne for me and General Paddy to work together?

After all, these things are flawed.

Hearing the bell ringing in the corridor, the young king of the small kingdom of Wommza straightened himself and continued to deal with the secret report in front of him.

----------

Abes and his group were advancing on the road on the east side of the kingdom.

The silver-haired girl was diligently explaining things to Abes beside him. Whenever Abes looked at a certain place or his eyes stayed on an object for more than five seconds, she would start to explain incessantly.

"The road we are on is located on the east side of the kingdom. Because it is close to the Eastern Wilderness, some of the towns that were developed here during the First and Second Dynasties have long been in ruins due to subsidence and invasions by alien species from the Eastern Wilderness."

"You've said this several times..."

"The wild fruit you see now is a species unique to the North. You must have seen it when you fought against the dragon disaster, but a thousand years is enough time for them to undergo a great change..."

"I know this too. You don't need to explain to me how the red wolf fruit has grown from being small, bitter, and full of seeds to being large, red, sour, sweet, and juicy through cultivation over the past thousand years."

……

After this conversation went on for a long time, Abes looked at the large group behind him that had slowly moved away from him, and then he slowly spoke to the silver-haired girl.

"I want to take them to fight the Lizardmen and get their supplies. What do you think I should do?"

The silver-haired girl raised her head and blinked her blue eyes.

"If you want to convince everyone to prioritize attacking the enemy's baggage train instead of traveling a long distance to the capital, you have already thought of many reasons, right?"

"Don't answer a question with a question..." After a pause, Abes smiled and said, "Exactly. If it's just about reasoning, I have countless strategies to tell them."

"It just so happened that I took them for a good meal and integrated everyone on the farm and this group of hungry people wandering around here. It was the time when the trust between them was the highest, and what I said was most likely to be listened to."

"but--"

Abbes suddenly made a turn, "That's why I can't do this."

"If you use a temporary favor to manipulate others, the favor will eventually disappear and you will be entangled with hatred."

"I need some actions that will convince them and make them willing to take them on their own initiative."

At this point, Abes sighed deeply.

The current integration pack introduces AI to simulate NPCs, which is indeed lifelike, but it also makes the game slow and hardcore.

If it were an integrated package from the era before AI, this group of people, regardless of gender, age or status, could now be upgraded to militia with just one click.

How could it be possible that only young and strong men and women could be selected as warriors...

There is no need to consider the marching speed and supplies. As long as the supply bar has not turned red and has not shortened and disappeared, can't we replenish it instantly by capturing the supply point before that?

But now, this set of gaming thinking obviously cannot be used so easily.

The supply bar is still red? When it turns yellow, I will kill you, the hero in name only, and use your head as a snack.

"I can help you emphasize the importance of the baggage troop - in fact, the key role of the baggage troop in the enemy's strategy does not need my explanation." The silver-haired girl bit her lower lip and said thoughtfully.

"Once the supply line is interrupted, even the most experienced soldiers will be in trouble during military operations, or even unable to maintain military operations. This is common sense that even children know."

"If cutting off their supplies can inflict heavy damage on the Lizardmen as a means of inciting them, then it's fine." Kronos nodded, then shook his head.

"Because, the hatred of revenge against the Lizardman had already dispersed by the time I led them to capture the Lizardman." Abes smiled bitterly, "Now it's difficult to gather them again based on hatred."

"The best way is to let them take the initiative to do it, as I said..."

Kronos's blue eyes rolled around, and then he looked at Abes again, "You can use my reputation, that is, the reputation of the Myers family."

"The Myers family didn't farm on the farm from the beginning. Among the farms where most of their ancestors were farmers, the Myers family was considered to be wealthy."

"If I had told them, when everyone was hungry and wanted to have another full meal, that when the Myers family once controlled the land nearby, there was a place where food was stored..."

Abes nodded slowly, and then gently stroked the other's silver hair in his hands, "Then I'll leave it to you."
