Chapter 221 Rescue Plan

Since he had decided on his course of action, the first question he faced was: Should he hi’s City?

This would be Border Town’s first ion, and it would also be different than the two defensive wars prior to it Certainly, they would come across unfamiliar environmental circumstances which could cause complications Whether they could display their combat ability without a prepared battlefield, was still unknown All this made it hard for hi’s City On the one hand, he knew that his own military experience was extre of war could still be regarded as the highest level for this era

But the ion would becosong Stronghold It would be a foolish hope to believe that Petrov could prevent all the other noble fa as people illing to disclose this information to Timothy, perhaps he would not care if he had to suffer a calamity at the front lines or in his backyard caused by the witches But if he knew that Roland was near King’s City it would be strange if he didn’t assemble his army to encircle him Even if it didn’t co as he coion to the Western Region, Roland would be in an equally tight situation

Generally speaking, co a defeat at the frontline, a fire in one’s own backyard was several times more severe

In the end, Roland decided to stay in Border Town

After all, the First Army’s primary task would be to protect the witches, while their second task would be to split the fugitives into sroups and let the an encounter with Ti’s City, it would be more likely that they would have to face the Church’s Ar as the rescueunexpected happened, they won’t even need to let loose a single shot

Of course, this meant that he would have to make sure that the rescue plan was as perfect as possible

…

At noon that day, Roland called Carter, Iron Axe, Bryan and the members of the Witch Union over

The 4th Prince only had so’s City, but this was a problem which could be easily solved, he asked Soraya to draw a si roo Iron Axe and Brian their co’s City and the blue line depicts the canal” Roland said while in thought, “You have two tasks, the first is to protect the witches while they cure the fugitives, and afterward you are to bring them back to Border Town Your second duty is to prevent the de’s City For this, you should be aware that the epide caused by the Church

“Wh-What?” Brian was shocked, not daring to believe his ears Carter raised his brows While Iron Axe’s expression didn’t change at all, after all, he was a follower of the three Gods, just like the other Sand People were, and because of that he had no worship for the Church or any belief in their clai towards hidom of Endless Winter, they idododooal In fact, the whole Battle for the Throne is already by itself worthy of skepticish the details how the Church was helping Timothy in the North, Garcia in the Southwest and hiht of this infor who they think will be the next heir, but instead they are encouraging us to kill each other off By sing their pills, it also becomes improbable that our soldiers will turn into veterans On the contrary, after taking the pills, their whole body will becoruesome death This time the same can be said about the disease After the de’s City, the Church will finally declare that they have the antidote, which ironically won’t be distributed for the benefit of the people”

“Only the light which shines in the darkest of places is the ht, if you want to be seen as a savior, you have to coer experience the contrast, the deeper will be their impression of the Church As for the innocent who died in the middle of the road, those are h,” Roland stated “So ill have to save the refugees from the East, but at the same time we also have to try to destroy the Church’s conspiracy

After taking a deep breath to calm himself down, Brian asked, “How should we do that?”

“You have to hide asto fulfill your duties in such a way that the other side doesn’t perceive you” Roland points to a wide area on the outskirts of the canal, south of the pier, “Here, the land should be covered with crops,it very suitable to hide at There you should also find a high point, which allows you to establish lookout to scout out the pier The soldiers responsible for providing support will disguise theuards once et on board I riteher to provide me with as many ships as possible, not only the two fleets which are already involved with the transportation

“Whether it is Longsong Stronghold or Graycastle’s capital, there are only a few big cities’ patrol forces who can cover the surrounding area,area depends on how far they can see when staying on the city wall So, the area south of the pier should be outside of their patrol area, e then locate our troops at this point, it is unlikely for theuard’s attention”

“How do you want to treat the sick?” Iron Axe asked

“This task will largely depend on Lily’s replica,” Roland roughly explained to the it unnecessary to walk into the fugitive caanism can become a replica you only have to collect the river water and let her purify it steadily Afterward, you only have to give it to those who are sick to drink”

“Like… that?” He gawked at Roland, totally disbelieving

“There are two points you have to take note of,” the Prince raised two fingers, “First, you have to ensure that every person on board had drunken the purified water and second, you are absolutely prohibited fro water to clean it In fact, the dirtier the water, the better it would be It would contain anism which means that the nuht be unable to understand this, but as long as you do what I told you, everything will be okay”
