Chapter 138 Operation Plan
Chapter 139 139. Battle Plan
"Leisen had two chances to almost kill me.
In the study, Roning recounted his dispute with Lord Sean.
"The first time was outside Shanlin Town, he wanted to use Princet to kill me. Although I killed him, Feridon who came later made me feel the threat of death for the first time."
At that time, the strongest man under Roning was McKen, a mid-level knight.
"The second time was this assassination. If it weren't for the Black Tiger, if I hadn't used the Wind of Detection in time, even if he didn't die, he would be seriously injured."
"Since he has repeatedly tried to kill me, I don't have to hesitate anymore. Now is the best time to take the initiative."
The three knights, Redar, McKen and Tom, all gripped the hilts of their swords. They were finally going to show their cards. Many of them knew that there would be such a day, but they didn't expect it to come so soon.
"Sir, when are you going to start? "Rydar asked.
Ronin gave a date directly, "Let the knights and guards spend the year-end and annual celebration well. On January 1st of next year, Rydar, you will lead the people to attack the Black Collar Tribe."
The reason for choosing the annual celebration date is that on the one hand, Leisen himself is not in the territory, and on the other hand, Ronin has successfully broken through to become a bronze knight and a great magician.
At that time, Rydar will no longer be restricted and will naturally break through. He can defeat Leisen in the advanced stage, not to mention after the breakthrough.
While speaking, Ronin looked at McKen and Tom.
"You two need to accompany me to Wushan Castle, so you can't participate in the battle to capture the Black Collar Tribe this time."
McKen was fine, he had already made this preparation, but Tom was dumbfounded, "My lord, although my strength is not strong, I am willing to contribute to the capture of the Black Collar Tribe, please give me this opportunity!"
His eyes were full of desire for battle. Knights can only establish glory on the battlefield.
"You have to go to Wushan Castle with me to identify the crimes committed by Baron Leisen against me. "
Ronin smiled and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, you won't have to wear the mask on your face after you come back this time, and you can also restore your former name, Malte."
Although Tom was born in Shanlin Town, he was once a subordinate of Princet and participated in Princet's assassination of Ronin.
At the beginning, Ronin kept Tom for the purpose of serving as a witness one day.
Tom was originally puzzled as to why he was called back with the commander this time. It turned out that the lord had such an arrangement.
"Sir, do you still remember my name?"
He was a little excited. Recently everyone called him Tom, and he almost forgot the name Malte.
"But whether I wear a mask or not, I will be named after you in the future. 'Tom' will be my name for the rest of my life!"
Ronin raised his eyebrows. This kid really knows how to talk.
"This is your free Tom. "
Ronin turned the topic back to the year-end arrangements.
"The annual celebration of Gray Earth Village will be held as usual. In addition, the tournament between knights and guards can be held in advance, leaving enough time for recovery, and all promised rewards must be issued. "
When it comes to this, Ronin can't help but look at Tom. If the other party didn't go to the Hill Forest Castle with him, Tom's level should be able to get the top three among the junior knights.
This arrangement made the other party miss a few gold coins.
Next, he discussed the battle plan with Rydal and McKen.
This time, the use of troops against the Black Collar Tribe is aimed at taking them by surprise and attacking them when they relax their vigilance and immerse themselves in the atmosphere of the annual celebration.
So before deciding to take action, the news of the attack must be kept secret.
"Sir, speaking of the Black Collar Tribe, I have something to report to you."
Rydal said: "Baron Rayson once asked Joffrey to promise me a manor, money, beauty, etc., hoping that I would follow him. "
Joffrey, the leader of the Black Collar Tribe, Ronin had some impression of this person. But he didn't expect that Leisen actually set his sights on Redar.
Indeed, a senior knight who can defeat a bronze-level knight will be a target for wooing wherever he is.
If Leisen can really persuade Redar to backstab, it will not only enhance the strength of the Sean Territory, but also weaken Ronin's strength, killing two birds with one stone.
But he never thought that Ronin and Redar and others were connected by a soul contract, which is completely different from ordinary followers.
It can be said that Ronin's existence is the primary condition for maintaining Redar, McKen, and Elrond's existence in the world.
Anyone will betray, but the three of them will not.
"If Leisen hadn't asked someone to assassinate me and gave me this opportunity, I might have arranged for you to go undercover with him."
This is actually a good choice.
Ronin jokingly said: "It's a pity that you lost an opportunity to follow a strong man. "
The three knights in the study couldn't help but laugh.
Rydar said: "A knight who is over fifty years old and only reached the bronze level is far inferior to you, sir."
Rayson's qualifications are just ordinary, and he became a baron because of his family's background.
If his background was more ordinary, it is estimated that being a canonized knight in this life would be the upper limit.
"Sir, although I will not follow Rayson, but Joffrey, the leader of the Black Collar Tribe, may follow you."
"Oh?"
Ronin was a little surprised, "Why?"
"I had a brief contact with Joffrey. This guy looks different from the gentle Horn and Jenny. He should be more ambitious."
"I deliberately provoked Joffrey that day, but I don't know if it will work."
Rydar told him in detail what happened on the border that day.
Ronin nodded secretly.
In any case, the Black Collar Tribe is the strongest among the wild tribes. Apart from the help of Leisen, Joffrey must have played a significant role in it.
Although Joffrey is now loyal to Leisen, his background is simple and there is no complicated power relationship behind him. He is a relatively worry-free recruit.
As for pursuit and ambition, except for Rydar and the other three, the others who follow Ronin have more or less pursuit and ambition, which is not a bad thing.
Ronin now has a small number of senior knights. If Joffrey can be subdued, it will be of great help to him.
"If you have a chance, you can have more contact with Joffrey. It would be best if he can surrender voluntarily. If he doesn't want to, then take down the Black Collar Tribe first and then persuade him to surrender."
"Okay!"
Rydal considered whether to cross the border before the annual celebration and ask Joffrey out for a few talks.
If Joffrey could be taken down before attacking the Black Collar Tribe, things would be much simpler.
But what they didn't expect was that Joffrey was no longer in the Black Collar Tribe. The knights guarding the Black Collar Tribe were replaced by Feridon, Fenris and their knights.
Joffrey was arranged to be with Leisen and accompanied him to Wushan Castle as a guard.
The reason for this transfer was that Rydal's words that day were heard by Knight Unai who followed Joffrey and reported back to Swamp Town.
Joffrey was also innocent. He was purely arranged by Leisen to find Rydal, but he didn't expect that he would be suspected in the end.
