Chapter 830 The Charm of Plans
More than ten thousand troops carrying a faint iron-blooded aura from the front line officially entered the city without causing any commotion. Because looking around, there is almost no figure of a civilian going out in the entire city. It is quiet and depressing.
It is ironic to say that cities such as Shanhai City, which are enemy-occupied areas, although they are not as prosperous as in the past, their vitality is gradually recovering, and they are almost the same as ordinary towns. But right now, the city, which is completely under the control of Bran's army, is as lifeless as if a storm is about to come...
The banquet has indeed been arranged at the most luxurious restaurant in the city. But when Barlow and Gary pushed the door open, they saw a table full of dishes, but no sign of the host who should be waiting here to entertain them.
Gary frowned dissatisfied, looked at the officer leading the way and asked solemnly: "Is this what you meant by waiting for a long time?"
"Sorry, two generals..." He bowed apologetically, and the middle-aged officer turned his head slightly, glanced at the hourglass placed next to the table, and said calmly, "Three minutes, at most, the general will come to entertain you two. .”
The two Barlows also saw the hourglass at this time, and they grinned disapprovingly as if they had seen something disgusting. Then Barlow waved his hand expressionlessly: "Forget it, take us to see Bretta."
The middle-aged officer looked hesitant: "General..."
"Now, immediately, obey the military order!" Barlow said with a gloomy face and full of oppression. But as soon as he finished speaking, the door to the rear compartment was pushed open, and a rather uncomfortable and slightly shrill laughter came, "Haha, I haven't seen you for a long time, the mad general is still so impatient."
Turning around, there was a middle-aged man with a fair face, a neat appearance, and not even a single hair out of place. Wearing high-grade armor, he walked in with a smile.
"Of course. Because there are always a lot of arrogant guys who are late. General Braita." Barlow casually placed a hand on the opponent's extended palm and said calmly. Gary stretched out his hand to shake General Braita's hand, but didn't say anything. He just nodded. Apparently he didn't have a good impression of the other person.
Brita didn't realize that she was being treated coldly. She picked up the wet wipes placed by the table and wiped her right hand that she just extended, as if it was stained with some violent poison.
Barlow and Gary, who were sitting down, twitched their eyes when they saw this. Looking away, they all felt that their polite behavior just now was unnecessary.
"Let's start then, let's chat while we eat. The food and wine here taste pretty good. Well, it's very clean." After adding such a seemingly unnecessary sentence, Bulita took the hourglass on the side that was about to finish dripping, stood upside down, raised her head and smiled, " We have a quarter of an hour.”
Barlow and Barlow were speechless at this time and poured a glass of wine. After clinking glasses with each other, they both felt that the other person who had been difficult to deal with before suddenly became more pleasing to the eye. Sure enough, the friendship between people is based on contrast...
"Although I don't think that just to deal with the gray rebels, it is a wise decision to transfer the two from the front line under the current situation. But now that it is a foregone conclusion, what needs to be done is still done..."
Hearing that he seemed to be a dispensable and worthless existence, Barlow couldn't help interrupting his words and said sarcastically: "Really? Then why did I just hear that there were gray-clad soldiers pretending to be your Tiger Roaring Legion a few days ago? The people easily deceived the gates of two important military cities, making the situation very passive."
"That was just an accident. Also, pay attention to your position, General Barlow." After waving his hand, the officer standing aside in a very standard military posture stepped forward and handed over a few pieces of paper. Buletta wiped the silver knife in his hand. He forked the tableware and said without raising his head, "This is information about our current situation and the strength of the gray-clothed rebels. You can take a look at it first. Well, I have to say that on paper, this gray-clothed army is It really shouldn’t be underestimated, especially at this special moment. But, haha..."
After chuckling twice, Bretta put down the wet towel, looked up at the two Barlows who were frowning and flipping through the information, and said calmly, "They also have the most deadly point. Please turn to the last three pages."
The corners of Barlow's mouth twitched, Yi Yan turned to the back, and they glanced at each other and couldn't help but be startled. "This is an assassination report against the current leader of the gray rebels...oh, a magician named Josiah. Haha, although the old guys in the Arms Department are a bit incompetent, they have a good vision and they can still know this. The biggest weakness of the gray rebels. Of course, from now on, none of those greedy assassins have succeeded."
After a pause, he picked up a piece of bloody beef and put it into his mouth. After chewing it a few times and swallowing it, he continued, "Fortunately, they are not completely incompetent. We can't enter the enemy-occupied area. If they can enter, just take them with us." After responding to this information, I found something interesting... Purple-bore cannon? Nilao bomb? Haha, that's interesting."
"What exactly do you want to say?" Gary asked with a frown as he turned over the information paper in his hand.
"It's very simple. I want to say that they recognized the wrong target." Picking up a wet wipe and elegantly wiping the soup from the corner of her mouth, Buleta narrowed her eyes and said, "Although Josiah is the biggest weakness of the Gray Army, now because of With the existence of a strong man like Ni Lao Hong, all assassination operations can't get through. In this case, why don't we directly target Ni Lao Hong? As long as we kill him, all problems will be solved. "
"Nonsense!" After presenting the information in his hand, Barlow said politely, "Do you think those assassins are fools? If they could kill Ni Lao Hong, why would they wait until now? And they would kill hundreds of people? "
Buletta smiled and shook her finger: "No, no, no, you misunderstood. In fact, my real target is just the purple-bore cannon. If it is really as described in the intelligence, this weapon can change the current war model, and even The power structure is also the reason why I took the initiative to come here this time. As for the other Gray Army, Josiah, Nilao Hong, etc., they are all secondary."
"It's nonsense, wait until you kill Nilao Hong first." Barlow curled his lips with disdain and said. Gary on the side raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and quickly flipped through the paper, looking for the information about the purple-bore cannon that Buleta had the highest praise in.
"Whether it's bragging or not, we'll see for ourselves after a while." Bulita chuckled lightly and said, "I think you all know about my style of doing things. Well. Even though you are a military general, you must always keep in mind the team, Overall importance. But in fact, I admire those with strong fighting spirit. The higher the strength, the more I admire them, because it means the greater their use value. Of course, it becomes more distressing after becoming enemies, but it is just a comparison."
"As I often say, everything can be calculated. From the outcome of a war to the outcome of a card game, the difference is just the price paid. Haha. I'm looking forward to it, How much does it take to kill Nilao Hong? I hope it doesn’t make me too hopeful..."
This time Barlow did not retort, because he was pulled by Gary to look at the information about the purple-bore cannon, frowning slightly and looking solemn. All of us here are ruthless people who have spent half their lives fighting in the battlefield, so their vision for war weapons is naturally not that bad. And just from a cursory glance, they knew that what Buleta said was true. The power of this weapon called the purple cannon was enough to make any force's heart beat!
Britta seemed to have expected such a reaction and calmly ate the food in front of her. Did not bother. After a moment of silence in the cubicle, Barlow and Gary looked up at the same time. He took a slight breath and asked solemnly: "Is the information serious?"
"Seriously, but we'll talk about this later." Putting down the knife and fork, Buletta picked up the wet wipes again and wiped the corners of her mouth, then picked up the tea and rinsed her mouth three times before continuing, "According to intelligence, now that Joshua The positions of Ni Laohong and Ni Laohong are in the forward combat area. Haha, I really don’t know whether to say they are stupid or to praise their courage... Well, no matter what, this is our ultimate solution to the gray-clothed rebels with one fatal blow. A good opportunity. So now, let us discuss the leadership issue of leading this battle."
After hearing this, Barlow and the two looked at each other, frowned, and then looked at Brita, waiting for his next words.
"My opinion is very simple. I have full authority to formulate this combat plan, and our army will take the lead in actual combat operations. Of course..." Just as the faces of Barlow and Gary became more and more gloomy, Buleta seemed to finally Thinking of these two generals who had traveled thousands of miles to come back from the front line, he said sincerely, "These two generals worked tirelessly to come to help. Of course our army must accept this friendship. In my plan, the two generals can lead the soldiers under their command." Help from the side. Well, help according to the plan..."
boom! There was a loud bang and the dishes shook. Barlow took back his palms from the table with a dark face and roared angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, assistant? Don't fucking think we don't know your plan, you arrogant cock, we will never accept this plan!"
"General Braita, don't you think your suggestion is a bit too much?" Gary on the side also looked extremely ugly and said with squinting eyes.
"Oh, I'm sorry, you heard wrong." Bulita spread her hands and said calmly, "This is not a suggestion, but an opinion. Now you have two choices, one is to act according to my plan, and the other is I send someone Treat you two well, and when this battle is over, I will send a thank you letter to your regiment."
After a pause, he waved his hand and continued, "Don't get angry in a hurry, General Barlow. I'm sorry that I investigated your matter. This time our enemy is the Gray Army. So you know, I have good reasons not to let you get close to the war zone." As for General Gary, the force you have led this time is not small, but this is the territory of my Tiger Roaring Army. Believe me, I have no less than ten ways to make it difficult for your army to move here. Look, this is what was planned in advance. charm……"
After finishing his words, he nodded apologetically to the two Barlows who looked extremely ugly. They stood up and picked up the hourglass that had just finished dripping. The corners of their mouths were slightly raised, "In a quarter of an hour, the meal time is over, and then it is the working time. Please continue to eat. No more company. Oh, by the way..."
As if remembering something, Buleta once again took out a slightly larger hourglass from her arms and placed it on the table. "If you two make a decision, you can go to the City Lord's Mansion to find me after the hourglass has finished dripping. Well, you know my habit. Yes, you won't wait until the time comes." He nodded and saluted again, and was about to lead his subordinate officers out of the compartment.
"Wait a minute." Barlow narrowed his eyes, looked at Britta who turned her head in surprise at the door, and said sarcastically, "I'm curious, do you also put an hourglass next to you when you do that with a woman? Five minutes? Or ten minutes?"
Gary chuckled when he heard this. Although the words were really rude, he had to say that it really made his depressed mood a lot better. He also asked, "Yeah, I'm curious too."
"Presumptuous..." The officer on the side suddenly darkened when he heard this. He wanted to reprimand, but Buleta stopped him with his hand. His expression remained unchanged and he said calmly: "If there is such a time, I will put an hourglass on it. But a woman? Dirty. Why do you touch dirty things?”
"...You win, tell me your plan..."
