The high-level military conference was held in a room burning charcoal.


    The furnishings in the room are very simple. There is a round table in the middle, surrounded by several chairs. On the wall behind the main seat, there is a military map of Northern Xinjiang. If there is anything special, it is that there is still a portrait of the emperor of the Canary empire on the wall.


    There were five people sitting in the meeting room. Count Denton, the leader of the first phalanx who had an unpleasant quarrel with Bai Xiaowen, was impressively present.


    Prince Nicholas sat on the main seat, and count Denton sat on his right hand, showing a special position.


    The waiter led Bai Xiaowen and sat down in the position facing Nicholas.


    "Welcome, Ms. Cecilia, Baron Dior," Prince Nicholas nodded. "Allow me to introduce you first..."


    Bai Xiaowen leaned up and stood up. Prince Nicholas looked at each person''s name and nodded.


    Three of the four people sitting next to Prince Nicholas were introduced. In addition to count Denton, the first infantry phalanx commander, there was also a chief of staff and a magic consultant, all of whom were Nicholas''s confidants.


    The remaining person who is not qualified to be introduced by the prince is a clerk of an ordinary template. Although he is also a confidant of the prince, he has a low status.


    When introduced to count Denton, the tall and strong count changed his indifferent attitude at the ball, walked over with a smile and patted Bai Xiaowen on the shoulder.


    "Baron Dior, I want to apologize for what I said at the ball. You must admit that you are right."


    Bai Xiaowen blinked, revealing a dazed color.


    "Ha ha..." count Denton smiled. "Dior, do you think Prince Nicholas and I are a group of fools who can''t see the reality?"


    Bai Xiaowen quickly shook his head: "I dare not."


    "This war is indeed a serious situation," said count Denton solemnly, putting away his smile. "However, we at the decision-making level can understand it. If it is known all over the city, it will shake the morale and morale of the army. Moreover, those nobles in Northern Xinjiang may run away in advance, together with the residents of black rock city."


    After a pause, count Denton continued, "most of the nobles who attended the dance did not know the strength of the enemy, but a small number of people knew it well. They just didn''t stand up to expose it for the sake of military morale, but showed optimism with the tide."


    The implication of count Denton''s words was that only a Leng like Bai Xiaowen took the initiative to come forward and expose the facts at the risk of offending others.


    "I was reckless. Please forgive me for my rashness, your Highness Prince and your excellency count." Bai Xiaowen said.


    Nicholas waved his hand and smiled: "it doesn''t matter. When I was your age, I said what I thought. I wouldn''t think so much."


    In fact, Bai Xiaowen guessed that Nicholas had the idea of stabilizing the military, otherwise he wouldn''t hold a dance in such a tense period. However, he still chose to express his different opinions. To put it bluntly, it was for two words: brushing his face.


    Today, most nobles disdain Bai Xiaowen''s minority remarks. When they really welcome the main force of the remnant and feel the pressure in Heiyan fortress, they will think of Bai Xiaowen''s wisdom.


    As for Prince Nicholas, Bai Xiaowen''s minority speech will not reduce points. On the contrary, it can create an impression of high IQ and low Eq. While showing their military talents and foresight, they also show some communication defects - such talents have always been the favorite of those Ming kings and lords, and the benefits are endless.


    The door opened, and the waiter led a thin old man in a red priest''s robe in. Everyone stood up to greet him, even Prince Nicholas.


    "Let''s welcome Archbishop Arlo with the most sincere applause. Without his large-scale forbidden curse, it is difficult to say whether we will win or lose this war." Prince Nicholas took the lead in clapping, and scattered applause broke out in the small conference room.


    Archbishop Arlo''s face was a little pale. He nodded slightly and greeted the people present: "this is the glory of God. I am just a humble petitioner. Moreover, it is inseparable from the efforts of all colleagues of the Holy Light priest."


    From Cecilia''s mouth, Bai Xiaowen has heard of the war on the front battlefield. Archbishop Arlo''s forbidden magic "light of creation" has become the winner and loser to reverse the war. However, judging from his weakness after performing his divination, Archbishop Arlo may not have the energy to perform it a second time.


    "Well, now that all the members of the military conference have arrived, let''s speak freely. According to the report of the investigation cavalry, the criminal domain remnant coalition army is out this time. Even the old, weak, women and children are forced to go to war. Children who are not as tall as wheels have also joined the ranks of the logistics Army..."


    Prince Nicholas said, "in terms of number, the remnant coalition is no less than our human coalition. As for combat effectiveness... I believe everyone here has a certain understanding."


    There was a cold breath.


    Count Denton cursed, "these barbarians have no morality and morality. Even children are forced to join the army."


    Bai Xiaowen shook his head secretly, which is related to life and death, and competes for living space for the race. The crime area coalition must devote the strength of the whole family. If you win, you can drive south and occupy a large area of fertile land on Kane continent. If you lose, the best result is to be driven back to the desert of crime.


    Bai Xiaowen has learned that the sin desert is more desolate and cold than the most barren territory in Northern Xinjiang, which is not suitable for human survival at all. The survival rate is estimated to be low even for the strong survivor subspecies.


    Therefore, the attitude of the remnant coalition army towards this war is to put all your eggs in one basket. Unlike the Canary Empire, it has not attracted enough attention. There is only one regiment stationed in Northern Xinjiang, which is only a few thousand people.


    As for the arrival of Prince Nicholas and archbishop Arlo, it was only an accident. When he was investigating the plague of the dead in Northern Xinjiang, he found the omen of the attack of the survivors. Despite the dissuasion of count Denton and others under his command, he stayed in Heiyan fortress and sent people back to the imperial capital for help.


    Bai Xiaowen''s second main task is to stick to it for ten days. According to Bai Xiaowen''s estimation, it should be the time when the reinforcements sent by the Empire arrive at Heiyan fortress.


    After denouncing the immoral acts of the criminal coalition forces, the topic still returned to how to confront them.


    "Dior, your speech at the ball means that you have a clear understanding of the strength of the remnant coalition. I wonder if you have formulated some resistance strategies?" Prince Nicholas asked.
