I have a lot of wives

Mobilize the army and supplies, march.It will always consume too much time and energy.Moreover, the natural climatic advantages of the ice and snow in the north are enough to offset the contrast of power between the two sides.

"I'm not worried about this." Knut replied immediately.

"This is my answer." So Lu Cheng spread his hands and said to Knut: "Continue to attack the Ice Sea Port. At most, pay attention to the intelligence and news of the empire. Life is going to pass."

"What about the hatred?! He killed my daughter, am I not going to repay the hatred?!" King Knut continued, almost speaking to Lu Cheng with a bit of annoyance.

"Vengeance is of course revenge. If the emperor is right in front of you now, it will be fine if you drew your sword and slashed him at once."

Lu Cheng smiled: "But he is not here."

"He is the emperor. The emperor of the Holy Faro Empire."

"We all know how difficult it is to start a war and retaliate against an emperor. This matter requires a long-term consideration."

"..."

"You are right." After hearing Lucheng's words, Knut was silent, looking very tangled.It took a while before he stretched his eyebrows again and said to Lu Cheng: "I am responsible to my people. Let go of the hatred for the time being."

"But this is not to say that I will forget this."

"One day, I will settle everything with that Emperor Otto."

"Yes, yes, that's it." Lu Cheng smiled and looked at the king on the opposite side, huh in his heart, knowing that all the other party's performance was just "acting"-he was actually listening to Lu Cheng's words The first time I wanted to understand, what I should do next.

It's just that the scene does not come up and down.The second point was that he would borrow Lu Cheng's mouth to speak these words so that his subordinates could understand him.That's why he deliberately "asked" Lu Cheng.

Lu Cheng has nothing to do with this.Anyway, he didn't have any interest entanglements on the Varangian side in the north.And that Xuexiaxue tried so hard to ask for help.

That being the case, just speak for her a little bit.

...

The topic about the hapless Princess Christina, that's it, I won't mention it for the time being.

Although Lu Cheng looked at Knut's cronies, there were several hesitant to speak, and they seemed to have different opinions.But in the end they still said nothing.Just secretly feel aggrieved.

King Knut's prestige in the Kingdom of Fenris is high enough.Enough to suppress everyone under his command.

...

The next topic is the discussion between "His Majesty Knut who endures grief" and "Archbishop Lu Cheng, a good friend of the Varangians" about the "Battle of the Ice Harbor".

His Majesty Knut's plan is simple.

He divided his troops into two groups and attacked the ice port by sea and land.

The main force united the Black Mountain dwarves and shadow elves that were already in place, and attacked the ice port from land.The other is the Varangian navy, they will attack Ice Harbor City by sea.

Of course, whether it is land or sea.There is a prerequisite for a siege war, that is, the navy that has won the ice harbor in naval warfare——

As a commercial maritime city.Binghai Port has a very good navy in order to protect its own interests.

Just like all commercial city-states.Most of the army units in Ice Harbor are unreliable mercenaries.And his navy is the citizen army of the city-state.

When fighting to defend the city, the navy of the Ice Sea Port will be responsible for the defense of the city wall, and place the unreliable mercenaries in the camp outside the city.

This will prevent the mercenaries from turning back and blast the inside of the city instantly.

"There is no doubt about the victory of the naval battle."

Knut is confident: "There is no one in this world, and the level of naval warfare is higher than that of the Varangians."

Lu Cheng smiled at the king's boasting and listened seriously.

"The only thing I worry about is the next siege." Knut looked at Lu Cheng seriously: "Binghai Port is a very good port. It is surrounded by mountains on both sides, and one side is close to the sea. Only one side is suitable for attack.

And Binghai Port is rich enough.Their walls are strong and towering.And there is enough magic defense.

Under such circumstances, it is difficult for us to imagine any force that can break through this defense.

If the time is delayed for too long, we will be very stressed."

Hair and beard are all white, and he is very old.But ambitions increased with age, and the unabated king looked at Lu Cheng seriously: "What can you teach me about this?"

"Neither can the dwarves' artillery?" Lu Cheng said in a relaxed tone: "Isn't the Black Mountain dwarves' combat effectiveness said to be good. Wouldn't it be okay to ask them to bring in a few large-caliber siege artillery and aim them at a wave?"

"It's a pity. According to what I know, the large-caliber siege guns of the Black Mountain dwarves...well, how do you say it, there is a little problem, you should know that the technological level of the various clans of the dwarves is not consistent."

"Oh, um, I understand."

Lu Cheng nodded: "What about the Shadow Elves, can't they provide some help? For example, legendary magic bombing?"

"I have also asked the shadow elves about this. But they claim that their legendary magic can't do anything to the defenses of the ice port-there are too many anti-magic enchantments. It can weaken the power of legendary magic to an impossible level. The degree of acceptance."

As for the question of "Why don't you take the waterway." "Unload the army at the dock area, it's all right?" This kind of question.Neither Lu Cheng nor Knut said.Because they know the condition of Binghai City.

Between the wharf area and the city, there is also a fairly good defense wall.Even if it is not as good as a land wall, it still has at least 80% defensive ability.

Coupled with the large number of towers in the dock area, and imaginable, they will arrange a large number of fortifications in the dock area.It is certainly not a good idea to enter the city by sea.

"Then there is no way." Lu Cheng spread his hands out: "You should have prepared for a long-term siege before, right? Then prepare for a long-term siege."

"Yes, but this is the most helpless way..."

The other party continued to look at Lu Cheng seriously, and then couldn't help but ask: "Is there really no other way, Archbishop?"

"Haha, how should I put it..." Lu Cheng smiled on the surface.But I was sighing in my heart that this king would really be a messenger.Do you want to help him break the ice harbor by yourself?

This is not difficult for Lu Cheng, but the point is, how can I help him?

...

Of course Lu Cheng's perfunctory meaning can be seen by Knut.

Of course he was willing to pay a certain price in exchange for Lu Cheng's help.

But do you pay back the money on the spot?

If by any chance I can impress the other party with sincerity without money, and let the other party help myself regardless of the cost, wouldn't it be a big profit?

...

"grandfather……"

At this moment, a familiar voice came from outside the camp, and Snow White was taken there.The conversation between Lu Cheng and the king was temporarily interrupted.

"Is it Xueni, come in quickly."
