Chapter 1066 Killing Four Birds with One Stone

Fortunately, they were not fighting alone. As long as they were not rushed down by the enemy in a very short time, they could call for support.

Ms. Catherine, who was in the center, prepared a strong reinforcement force distributed on the Conqueror's Road after the Giant Plains War.

For the air force, it was naturally the Shadow Flying Vehicle. With its terrifying speed, it could radiate 200 kilometers around.

For the army, it relied on Gavin's road statues, which could be accurately transmitted. The radiation range also ranged from tens of kilometers to hundreds of kilometers. The specific situation depended on the divine power of the road statues.

As long as the nearby strategic priests or shadow wing warriors sent out a distress signal, their information would be fed back to the Shadow Information Intelligence Center as soon as possible. The think tank sitting here would make judgments based on the situation and provide the most appropriate support.

Either directly accurately transmit the army, or send out varying numbers of Shadow Flying Vehicles for air support.

Either way, it was a dimensionality reduction attack on those monster tribes.

Especially the latter, this new war tool was a disaster for those flesh and blood bodies.

Without any defense, two skeleton bombs dropped can cause a monster army to suffer heavy casualties and collapse.

On the contrary, the morale of those humans will be directly pulled back and pushed into a state of fanaticism, and their hearts will be filled with endless awe for Ms. Strategy and the God of Road.

...

Kingdom of Cormier.

Purple Dragon Palace.

Pushing the intelligence in his hand, King Yasan couldn't help laughing and said, "You are worthy of being my appointed general. Even if you fall into the abyss, you still have the means to turn your hand around and turn the rain around. A bandit suppression operation has achieved the goal of killing four birds with one stone."

The news that Gavin fell into the abyss is a secret to ordinary people.

But it is not a secret for a person with enough strength like King Yasan.

The Kingdom of Cormier is also a passive participant in this comprehensive bandit suppression. Half of their territory is wrapped by the Conqueror's Road, and even directly crosses it, especially in the direction of the rocky land, which has an absolutely extraordinary impact.

Once the monsters there are cleared, they will inevitably overflow into the hinterland of the Kingdom of Cormier, and naturally keep a close eye on his every move.

"Four eagles with one arrow? Father is exaggerating!" Princess Yalusel said, counting on her slender fingers, "I counted and counted, there are only three eagles, where did the remaining one come from?"

"Oh?" King Yasan looked at his little daughter with a smile on his face and said, "Tell me, which three eagles did you see?"

There was an obvious sense of calculation in his words.

Princess Yalusel was not at all shy and answered in all seriousness: "The first benefit is obvious.

The safety index of General Gavin's territory has been greatly improved, and the range of activities of ordinary people has been expanded by at least ten kilometers along the road.

This means that they have more places to open up, more prey and more resources to collect.

In particular, the reputation of the Conqueror's Road has been completely established.

The road is convenient, safe and absolutely guaranteed, it is hard not to be prosperous here.

I think it will take less than a year and a half, and this will become the busiest and most profitable road in the whole of Faerun, without a doubt, even the Golden Road of Cesk can't compare.

As long as there is a constant flow of caravans, various villages, towns and gathering points will be established like mushrooms after rain, completely turning the wilderness into a lush territory.

As long as General Gavin himself does not make a fatal wrong decision, there will be a miracle of a road creating an empire, no, a myth."

Princess Yalusel, who once followed the Conqueror's Army for a period of time, has a deeper understanding and unique feelings for the Conqueror's Road, and is not stingy with her praise for him.

"Based on this knowledge alone, you can be a qualified general." King Yasang affirmed this analysis, "What about the second one?"

"Faith promotion." Princess Yalusel responded, "Not only will the faith of Ms. Strategy be further promoted, but General Gavin will probably take this opportunity to officially enter the road priesthood, and countless people will worship him as the god of the road.

His ability on the road will be further improved, and he will have more advantages in building territories in the future."

It has become an open secret that Gavin is preparing to enter the road priesthood.

Not only because his road statues are placed on both sides of the road, but also because he has opened the seeds of the road demigod and can preach openly.

When talking about the gods, Princess Yalusel is not as awed as ordinary people.

As a ruler with a long history like the Kingdom of Cormier, the royal family of Obaiszir has always maintained a friendly and close relationship with the good gods.

Among the dignitaries who visited the Purple Dragon Palace, not all of them are secular, and there may even be incarnations of gods.

The purpose is naturally to gain the support of the Obaiszir royal family. As long as they are slightly inclined in policy, it will have a huge impact on their faith in the Kingdom of Cormyr.

For those relatively weak gods, this influence will be crucial.

Just look at Ms. Strategy. It was because of Gavin's support that she rushed from a demigod to a weak god in just a few years.

As one of the legitimate heirs of the Kingdom of Cormyr, Princess Yalusel has no less than ten gods' graces.

After seeing the philistine side of the gods, it is naturally difficult to raise a sense of awe and talk about them as commonplace.

"Third!" King Yasang's smile grew even brighter.

There is no parent who doesn’t want their children to become better. I don’t know whether it’s the result of learning from Ms. Strategy’s electors or the tempering of the war in the desperate Eastern Region. This usually frizzy little daughter has become a lot more mature and stable. Considering Things are getting more comprehensive.

"The third is to intimidate the enemy." Princess Yalusel, immersed in analysis, failed to understand her old father's mentality, "General Gavin's territory has a huge advantage.

Most of his territory was created by him alone, without the constraints of the bloated noble class. His orders can be implemented efficiently and he can mobilize a large amount of manpower and material resources to do one thing.

But this is also his most fatal flaw, when something goes wrong with him.

These territories that he pieced together with his charm will become a piece of loose sand again, giving the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it.

The Dark Alliance of the Dragon Coast, the Dark Fortress of the Zhentarim, the Merchant Council of the Kingdom of Sembia, and the red-robed mages of the Kingdom of Cyre are all ready to make a move.

Even my father sent an additional 50,000 elite troops to the Goblin Borderlands..."

"Ahem..." King Yasang's face was thicker than dragon scales. He was exposed by his daughter in public and almost choked on his saliva. He defended himself: "I mobilized the troops just in case. General Gavin." The fruits of civilization that were easily established there fell into the hands of the evil Zhentarim and completely blocked our western region..."

"Such a piece of fat meat would make everyone greedy." Princess Yalusel chuckled, with an expression I could understand, "If it were me, I couldn't help but do this.

I just didn't expect General Gavin to have such strong control over the territory. Even if he was not in the material plane, he could launch such a comprehensive war. The territories would have such strong linkage capabilities and such powerful new war equipment.

If this tactic cannot be solved, it will easily be dragged into the quagmire of war and be beaten on many sides. "

"Yes, yes, you have made a lot of progress in the recent period. You have seen so much that you are more than enough to be a qualified lord. But you only saw the surface, but did not see the deepest reasons..." Yasang The king wisely changed the subject, as this kind of thing became less clear the more he defended it.

"The deepest reason?" Princess Yalusel looked even more confused.

"What direct benefits does this matter have to General Gavin?" King Asan said in a persuasive manner.

"General Gavin is in the bottomless abyss now. He is at most the manipulator behind the scenes. What direct relationship does he have with him?" Princess Yalusel still didn't see through.

"You have already analyzed the level of belief before..." King Yasan almost revealed the answer directly, "Look at the targets they focus on."

"Gnolls, ghouls, orcs..." Princess Yalusel said suddenly, "What my father means is that General Gavin is in the bottomless abyss with the demon lord Yeenoghu and the ghoul king Dori. Sen started a war? How is this possible? That's the demon lord..."

"How is it impossible?" King Asan said proudly, "No matter where it goes, a giant dragon will soar in the sky instead of flopping in the mud, as is the case with General Gavin.

The fragments of the murderous godhead were in the hands of Yamen Khan and became the source of disaster for himself and the Tukan people.

In the hands of General Gavin, it may help him soar to the sky, especially since he has mastered a variety of divine powers.

Otherwise, where do you think those bloodthirsty undead charging at the front line and the flying undead with terrifying air superiority come from? "

Princess Yalusel's heroic face showed a look of horror, "Father, do you mean that General Gavin now not only controls the power of killing, but has even established a territory in the bottomless abyss?"

King Asan nodded and said: "Only in this way can we explain why his Shadow Wing agents mastered the ability to summon undead demons on a large scale in a short period of time. That is by no means a spell, but a divine grace technique."

"It's unimaginable, it's really unimaginable. In less than half a year, General Gavin has expanded his territory into the bottomless abyss." Princess Yalusel's eyes were about to have little stars.

If it is just to expand territory in the material plane, it is only the capital of a human king.

Even the bottomless abyss, which is a place that ordinary people talk about, can open up territory, and I am afraid that even the weaker gods will surpass it.

But the other person's age seemed to be a few years younger than her.

"This is not necessarily a good thing." A gentle and gentle voice sounded.

A woman wearing a simple and elegant dress and a crown walked in. Her every smile exuded a sense of kindness, and her words and deeds were impeccable. She had the demeanor of an emperor and a nobleman, which was perfect with her beauty. Melted together.

Wherever she goes, she is the undisputed protagonist.

There is only one person in the Kingdom of Cormyr who possesses such a demeanor, the eldest daughter of King Asan, Crown Princess Tenarasta, who is known as the Pearl of the Kingdom of Cormyr.

"Eldest sister likes to worry about things unfounded." Princess Yalusel stepped forward with a smile, held Tenarasta's hand and said, "That is the power of the lower plane. It is easy to use and does not cost anything."

"Everything has a price, but some prices are invisible to the naked eye." A trace of unconcealed worry flashed across the beautiful face of Tenalas, "Especially those evil forces, which erode people's minds invisibly.

The longer General Gavin stays in the Abyss, the greater the power he controls there, and the more difficult it is to come back.

Even if he comes back one day, will he still be the same person?"

"Haha... We haven't become a family yet, and your sister is already so concerned about him?" Princess Yalusel teased without restraint.

"Do you believe I will tear your mouth apart when I come back?" The Crown Princess's threat was also unusually gentle.

Princess Yalusel, like a frightened rabbit, not only subconsciously jumped away, but also covered her mouth and nodded repeatedly: "Believe it! Believe it! Believe it!"

Because the other party really did it, and it was with a soft smile, and the movements were graceful and elegant.

Princess Yalusel subconsciously looked at King Yasan, and when their eyes met, they both saw a meaningful smile.

They knew Tenarasta's temperament very well. Don't be fooled by her gentle appearance and considerate appearance.

In fact, she has a strong inner self-esteem.

There are not many men who can catch her eye, and she will not lower her requirements.

Her marriage has become a difficult problem.

Gavin is the first person who can make her react like this.

This shows that Princess Yalusel's words have touched her heart.

Otherwise, she would just laugh it off at most.

King Yasang took the initiative to comfort: "Those who are trapped in the bottomless abyss are all people who are confused by power and eventually become puppets of power.

General Gavin is the most opinionated and persistent person I have ever seen in this regard.

If he was so easily confused by the powerful power, he would have reached into the realm of immortality long ago, instead of waiting until he entered the abyss.

If he can't even refuse this temptation, he is not qualified to be my son-in-law and marry my most precious pearl."

"Father..." The Crown Princess said coquettishly.

The same joke came out of King Yasang's mouth, and Tainarasta was helpless.

Or rather, this was not just a joke.

If it was said that the marriage between the two sides was just a possibility before.

When the other party returned safely from the bottomless abyss, it became a necessity and something that needed to be put on the agenda.

Because the benefits were too great.

Once the marriage was successful, the two gave birth to a child and inherited the common territory of both parties. The Kingdom of Cormier would be equivalent to expanding its territory by thousands of miles, directly breaking the terrain shackles that had existed for thousands of years.

"Haha... no more jokes." King Yasan laughed loudly, and before his crown prince could get angry, he changed the subject and said, "Your next work focus will be on the Thunder Peak Mountains, and keep a close eye on the Storm King.

This anti-bandit operation is not without benefits.

Under the strong external pressure, those monster tribes will attach themselves to those strong evil forces.

The Storm King took the opportunity to gather a large number of fleeing monster tribes.

The Sambia Merchant Council also seemed to consciously support him as a tool to fight against General Gavin.

But this tool has its own will and will not follow their plan completely. If we are not careful, it will backfire on us, or even on themselves."

King Yasan showed some fear in his words.

This means that the monster troops gathered by the Storm King are not a small number.

The trouble level of this monster kingdom is far greater than that of the Tukan army.

Because the Thunder Peak Mountains where they are located are rugged and complex, it is difficult for the army to go deep into it and uproot the enemy.

The enemy can rush out from various mountain passes at any time, harass the heartland of the Kingdom of Cormyr, and plunder the surrounding villages and towns.

After they grow stronger, it is inevitable that they rush out of the mountains to plunder.

Because the output in the mountains is limited and not enough for them to consume, especially when winter comes.

The Purple Dragon Knights of the Kingdom of Cormyr are famous all over the world, not because of training, but because of killing.

The Storm Horn Mountains and the Thunder Peak Mountains are both the biggest barriers and the biggest insecurity factors of the Kingdom of Cormyr.

Every winter and spring, when food is scarce, monsters come out of the mountains to harass, which is a regular drama.

"Understood." The Crown Princess responded solemnly, "I will never give the Storm King a chance."

Similar analysis is not limited to the Kingdom of Cormyr. Those who have conflicts of interest with Gavin, whether allies or enemies, just have different focuses of analysis.

Some are full of interest in their multi-regional joint and synchronous combat mode, conduct full research on it, and find countermeasures.

Such organizations are usually super cross-regional countries and organizations headed by the Zhentarim and the Red Robe Mages of the Kingdom of Sel.

The former has huge grassroots organizations and chambers of commerce in various places, while the latter has magic concessions in many cities.

Once such enemies launch simultaneous attacks on their isolated grassroots organizations and magic concessions, this will undoubtedly cut off their many tentacles. Although it will not cause a fatal blow to them, it will seriously weaken their radiation range and will cause a double blow to their economy and influence.

There are also those who are more interested in and pay more attention to killing undead and shadow aircraft.

For example, the merchants of Sambia.

Gavin showed off the heavy aerial bombing formation headed by the armed Yun Yao in the East Region of Despair, which shocked them a lot.

But that's all.

For the wealthy Sambian merchants, they not only have a solution, but also more than one.

For example, directly importing magic airships from the magic kingdom of Halua, or hiring adult dragons, etc.

No matter which method, it is enough to compete with the armed Yunyao and offset their advantages in air combat.

But if it is combined with the shadow aircraft, the nature is different.

Regardless of whether it is a magic airship or an adult dragon, they may be bombed directly from the air.

As Gavin's close neighbor, the Sambian merchants who have always regarded the valley as their own food and blood supplement are naturally like a thorn in their throats, sitting and lying uneasy.

The various conspiracies they prepared for the Battle Valley came to an abrupt end.

At least before solving this problem, they dare not act rashly, because once they anger the other party, the enemy will use the shadow aircraft to retaliate against their city. The result will be disastrous. (End of this chapter)
