Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Chapter 1577: Chapter 911: The Lord’s Plan and the Lively Banquet Hall_1 Chapter 1577: Chapter 911: The Lord’s Plan and the Lively Banquet Hall_1 There was only one thing on Leo Ray’s mind: to do everything possible to break the alliance of the three great aristocratic families before the decisive battle, otherwise their chances of victory would be extremely slim.

“The strength of the 20 neutral cities in the Northern Territory has been thoroughly investigated. At most, they can assemble 20 Northern Legions with their reserve forces.”

“Under my command are 10 legions that are already gathering around Ferro Castle. At the same time, 16 more surrendered legions are being rapidly assimilated.”

“Adding the 6 legions under Caroline’s command, I essentially have 52 legions in my hand.”

“Moreover, the surrender conversion work of the Mountain Fortress and the recruitment of new soldiers in various places are also proceeding in an orderly manner.”

“This means that, barring any accidents, I will be able to assemble at least 60 legions of troops before the decisive battle begins.”

As Leo thought about this, he took another glass of pale blue wine.

This was a unique strong liquor from the Northern Territory which, when complemented with ice cubes, had a unique taste. It was especially effective against the cold and was deeply loved by the people of the Northern Territory.

As the liquor went down his throat, its velvety smoothness was mixed with an indescribable spiciness that hit Leo’s forehead, making him feel instantly refreshed.

“The Sanders, Lancaster, and Yorkman families alone can easily gather 600,000 elite troops, not including the attached forces and remnants of traditional and new aristocracy.”

“From this, it is easy for the opponent to gather a million troops. The wealth and foundation of the three great aristocratic families are enough to support such a large army for a long time.”

“Our 600,000 against the Fourth Prince’s 1 million – this is just a numerical comparison. In terms of combat experience and overall strength, our side is undoubtedly weaker, especially considering that our 600,000 soldiers include nearly 200,000 untrained recruits.”

Leo swirled the pale blue liquid in his glass, his face growing more serious.

Under such circumstances, even with four Tier 5 powerhouses in his ranks, he could not bridge the huge gap, not to mention his disadvantage in terrain.

Moreover, it was still unknown whether the opponent had any Tier 5 powerhouses to aid them.

“If I have any advantage, it’s the higher quality equipment, magic medicine, and magical scrolls. However, the main forces of the three great aristocratic families are each on par with the Royal Army Corps.”

“This means that the opponents’ Tier 3 equipment coverage rate exceeds 30%, further narrowing my advantage in equipment.”

“In summary, confronting such a large-scale enemy head-on is clearly not a wise choice.”

“Even if we ultimately win, most of my hard-earned troops will be lost, almost tantamount to mutual destruction.”

“At that time, the empty Coldflame Kingdom will inevitably be coveted by neighboring countries, and I will be powerless to fight any further. The outcome is self-evident.”

“So, before the decisive battle begins, I must do everything possible to narrow the gap between the enemy and myself. Only then will I be able to handle the upcoming life-or-death battle more skillfully.”

Leo looked at Ariel Watson and Caroline, who were smiling in the face of the still excited Northern Territory Lords, and nodded thoughtfully.

As for the specific method of leveling the playing field or breaking the alliance of the three aristocratic families, he had already figured it out.

That is to help Linda take the position of the head of the Sanders Family.

If Linda becomes the ruler of the Sanders Family, Grand Duke Harrison Shelton will be taken down from his pedestal, and the Sanders Family will naturally withdraw from the war or even switch to their side.

In a trade-off, the overall strength of the Fourth Prince will undoubtedly be greatly reduced.

“This has been my plan from the beginning, and also my promise to Linda. Now, it’s time to fulfill that promise.”

Leo walked leisurely among the long dining tables, politely greeting the chattering noble ladies around him and making them excited, while continuing to ponder.

“Grand Duke Harrison Shelton has been the head of the Sanders Family for more than a decade, deeply rooted in power, whereas Linda is just an insignificant side branch member. The gap between them is obvious.”

“On the surface, no matter how you look at it, it seems impossible for me to elevate Linda to the position of head of the family at this critical juncture when the Coldflame Kingdom is about to undergo a major change, but in reality, there is still some chance.”

Leo sipped the strong liquor in his cup, and his black eyes gradually brightened.

Through his understanding during this period, he had learned:

The Sanders Family’s business is vast, with numerous family members and complex, intertwined interests.

Apart from the unpopular side branches, the core family members who hold power are also divided into several factions rather than a united front. They compete with each other for their interests.

Moreover, as the head of the family, Grand Duke Harrison Shelton is not the only ruler of the family. There is also an Elders Council, with powers comparable to the family head, which jointly decides on many family matters.

In some extreme cases, the Elders Council has the power to dismiss the family head or nominate a new one.

“Through Linda and Gael’s description, I further learned that not all the elders who make up the Elders Council support Grand Duke Harrison Shelton.”
