Chapter 1053 Earl Denton's Oath Stone
"This is indeed a problem. The fighting power of the regular army of the Empire is a bit stronger...I mean compared with Besuwei's private army."
August said with a bit of a headache, "Although special training has been given to those trash, it is still too difficult for them to have a fighting power comparable to the regular army of the Empire in just ten days. Moreover, the monsters in the underground world There are not enough of them present to fight against the regular regiments of the Empire."
"Yes, so we must first get rid of the nail that drove the empire into the Xisha Province." Andre said.
"You mean Lord Denton?"
August laughed and said: "It's easy to handle. Although Besuwei's private army is weak, it is enough to be cannon fodder. When I rush to kill Denton, the Imperial Vanguard Army will definitely be defeated."
This tactic is suitable for situations where the enemy commander is not strong. It would be impossible for Nicholas IV to lead the imperial army, because Auguste knew that he could not rush to kill a lord.
"It's not difficult to defeat Denton. After all, it's just a rare leader. But how can Denton be used?" Andre shook his head.
"Exploit the value of Denton?" August scratched his chin, "Well, then change the tactics, kill Denton secretly, and then let the shapeshifter disguise, taking advantage of Nicholas IV's arrival and being unprepared, to blackmail him ! As long as Nicholas IV is seriously injured, I will be sure to defeat the Imperial Legion."
"No." Andre shook his head.
"Why?" August is a good lord who accepts advice with an open mind. According to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms he has read, all lords who accept advice with an open mind succeed, and those who don't listen to counselors' advice are finished.
His favorite Bofu Sun died young because he refused to listen to the counselor's advice.
Andre explained: "First of all, when the Plantagenet Empire investigated the shapeshifting monsters in the central provinces, it had expanded the scope of the investigation, and even the heirs were included in the investigation! That is to say, their defensive attitude towards shapeshifting monsters It's very serious, most likely, Earl Denton who joined us for the first time will be strictly interrogated, and this plan will hardly work."
After a pause, Andre said again: "And most importantly, I don't want Nicholas IV to die like this."
August tilted his head: "I don't quite understand."
"Nicholas IV passed away, and the empire is in disarray. Who will help us consume the strength of the underground monster empire?" Andre sighed, "The current Kane can be regarded as a tripartite confrontation. The Plantagenet Empire,
The strongest is like Cao Mengde who dominates the north; the underground monster is currently weaker, like Sun Zhongmou in Jiangdong, and we are the weakest. We can be regarded as the impoverished Liu Xuande before the Battle of Chibi. "
"In the Chibi War, Cao Mengde was originally captured by Zhuge Kongming, but when he was deploying, he deliberately arranged for Guan Yunchang in Huarong Road. Why?"
Andre asked himself and answered, "Because he didn't want Cao Mengde to die. If there was no Cao Mengde and Sun Zhongmou had no one to suppress him, he would surely grow rapidly. At that time, Liu Xuande had no strength to contend with him."
Andre sighed in his heart, being August's think tank is not an easy task, he must do what he likes. Knowing that August liked the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Andre also forced himself to read it, so that both of them became familiar with the Three Kingdoms.
Borrowing the metaphor of the Three Kingdoms is often a shortcut to convince August.
"Well, I think you're right. Nicholas IV should be better alive." August nodded quickly.
"To deal with Earl Denton's vanguard, let Camille lead the monsters from the underground world to attack," Andre said. "In a short period of time, it will be beneficial for us to let both sides fight internally."
"Camier? That earth native?"
August frowned and said, "Isn't this giving her the contribution to the war? Earl Denton is also an important plot role."
When it comes to his contribution to the unification process, August becomes very sensitive.
"With Earl Denton as the bait, I don't have to worry that Camille won't do my best. As for the contribution to the war, don't worry, I've already made arrangements." Andre's pale face revealed a confident smile.
"Okay, I'll do as you said. By the way, kill the old duke quickly, so I don't have to come and waste two hours every day to accompany him." Auguste whispered.
"Don't be in a hurry, at least you can let the old duke ascend to heaven after you have mastered the power of the entire Besuwei territory, the squad leader. Now, it is enough to keep him in a coma where he is seriously ill and unable to manage. You should do superficial work, You must stop the mouths of other nobles in order to gain power in a legitimate way."

Tranquility Base City, Chaoshen Guild Building.
According to the agreed time, Cecilia was summoned back to Earth again.
This time, the news she brought was even more shocking.
"Earl Denton died in battle? The Imperial Vanguard was defeated?"
Bai Xiaowen digested the information, and said slowly: "The enemy's reaction speed is too fast..."
"What do you mean?" Li Shuyi asked.
"Just as the central province made an action, the Xisha province reacted and defeated Earl Denton's vanguard first... If this is not a coincidence, it can at least explain one problem, that is, there are still enemies in the central province Lurking! Moreover, it is the awakened person of the hostile faction who has mastered the special communication channel!"
Li Shuyi nodded: "The main road between Xisha and the central province has been blocked and controlled. It stands to reason that the information should not be transmitted so fast."
Cecilia said: "There is a detail. According to the reports of the vanguard soldiers who were defeated, it was an army of underground monsters who launched the raid. However, Earl Denton seemed to be prepared in advance, leading a small group of elites to break through and leave the battlefield. After receiving this report, Nicholas IV thought that Denton survived, but then he learned that the other party died in battle."
"Wait a minute..." Bai Xiaowen caught something keenly, "How did Nicholas IV get the news of Denton's death in battle? Could it be that those elites who followed Denton to break through survived and fled back to Nicholas?"
"No, those elites were also wiped out."
Cecilia said: "The reason why I know that Denton died in battle is because Nicholas IV held Earl Denton's oath stone. With Denton's death, the oath stone broke. The moment it broke, Nicholas IV Through the picture displayed by the oath stone, the fourth generation saw the scene of Earl Denton before he died."
The Oath Stone is similar to the "Warning Stone", but in addition to conveying the message of life and death, it can also allow the holder to see some pictures of the victim before death. It is considered a more high-end magic item.
"What did he see?" Bai Xiaowen asked.
