War Mobilization · Advancing into the Swamp – Extra Update for “Jade Little Wheat” Brothers 【8/25】_2

Moreover, they didn’t seem to plan on engaging in formal combat with the Transylvania vanguards.

From this conclusion, if their exploration was successful and they really obtained that legendary treasure, they would likely retreat from the swamp back to the Dark Mountain Range at the fastest speed.

Therefore, it can be said that the Pestilence Clan’s response to our provocation was consistently passive.

The Jackal Warlocks didn’t view us as enemies that must be eradicated, which was a significant difference from the previous warlord Kenbort.”

At this point, Lady Adel glanced at Master Morphy’s contemplative pose, paused, and then softly spoke,

“The Shadow Intelligence Bureau currently has two action plans for your consideration.”

“Speak.”

Morphy looked up at Adel, eager to hear her expert advice, but the glaring whiteness made his gaze involuntarily slide down.

It felt like participating in a “Don’t Look at the Chest Challenge,” and like other men, Morphy initially fell flat on his face.

Damn!

Who taught Adel this cunning strategy?

Which man could withstand it?

“From the perspective of avoiding losses, we believe that ignoring the movements of the Pestilence Clan and letting them operate in the swamp might be the optimal solution for our current situation.

If they find what they’re looking for, they will leave.

If they find nothing, they’ll just waste time in the swamp, which isn’t easy to breach guarded by Ningkinanka.

In the most optimistic analysis of the intelligence bureau, the Pestilence Clan will engage in intense battles with the legendary beast clans.

No matter who falls, either outcome would be favorable for Transylvania.”

Adel presented her first suggestion, stating,

“This course of action wouldn’t disrupt the ongoing defense construction in the Dark Baron Territory, nor would it affect the positive momentum of recovery and development brought about by the current ‘100 Days of Construction’ campaign.

The problem with this course of action is, if we choose this plan, it means that your previous plan of turning the Polluted Swamp into Transylvania’s ‘new frontier’ before the Black Disaster might need to be postponed.

But its biggest advantage is that we don’t need to spend more resources, whether human or material.”

“But you’ve served at the ‘Forum Tavern,’ you should know how passionately my warriors have been discussing the plotline for the Polluted Swamp.

Letting the enemy slip away is not their choice, and bidding the enemy farewell would only be criticized as cowardice and surrender.

Trust me, this accusation has already taken a severe toll on their minds, and could even directly undermine the legitimacy and prestige of the Transylvanian authority in their hearts.”

Morphy didn’t think any further and shook his head, saying,

“They undoubtedly wish to see new enemies and new challenges.

They long to see a ‘new map’ that stands out, revealed and presented.

Since Kenbort’s defeat, my warriors haven’t had a high-intensity battle for a long time.

If they are a peerless blade, then it’s time to draw it once again.

Personally, allowing the enemy to strut around our territories undisturbed is also a terrifying blow to my fragile ego as a local lord.

I can’t blind myself to believe there’s no risk around, just like we’ve never chosen to be ostriches from the time Transylvania was rebuilt…

Do you understand what I mean, Adel?”

“Yes, my master is never one to shy away from a challenge, I’m confident and proud of that.”

The Shadow Female Baron then introduced the second plan, looking at Morphy, she said,

“Then, we only have one option left.

This plan is quite aggressive, considering that the Pestilence Clan is currently retracting strategically, we should start responding to this change now.

We should mobilize all your warriors!

Have them serve as fearless vanguards entering the Polluted Swamp through the safe routes scouted by the Bloodclaw Clan, and start rapidly cleansing the inferior skeleton armies scattered by the Pestilence Clan.

If the warriors advance fast enough, we can launch a fierce assault on Pestilence Town before the Pestilence Clan’s treasure-hunting yields results.

Like the raid we conducted on Kenbort’s camp!

Under extreme conditions, a single precise beheading strike could crush the Pestilence Clan and snuff them out within their swamp territory.

The beauty of this plan is that due to the Pestilence Clan’s activities in the Polluted Swamp, there’s already no trace of other dangerous beasts or swamp residents near Transylvania in this part of the swamp.

This means that if we defeat the Pestilence Clan, we could take over at least a third of the Polluted Swamp as our new territory in a very short time.

That would be a remarkable expansion, such a victory would deeply entrench your rule and garner you significant prestige in the external regions, which would stabilize our authority and even assist in diplomatic matters.

Moreover, Chieftain Hog of the Bloodclaw Clan is very enthusiastic about this plan, so if we decide to launch a thunderous offensive on the Pestilence Clan, then Hog would bring out his best resources to support our warriors.”
