[0402] The plan of Jarvan IV
Jarvan IV was actually very clear about the significance of his appointment as general and his assignment to the Gate of Sorrow - he was here with gold!
Although it seems that Jarvan IV was sent to the front line, to a place where military friction often occurs, friction is just friction. If Jarvan III really hopes that Jarvan IV can learn some useful knowledge, he should appear at this time.
Green Teeth Peak!
Although the Gate of Mourn was once a battlefield between Demacia and Noxus, that was hundreds of years ago. Now Noxus has ended its previous crazy expansion, and this huge empire has turned its attention to
Placed on the south and east sides.
Although Trivel and Mourngate are the only places directly bordering Demacia and Noxus, this is south of the Silver Mountains after all - Trivel is a remote area of Noxus, and Mourngate
It is also a corner of the Demacia map. If a war breaks out here, both sides will be unable to sustain supplies.
Moreover, as two huge empires in the east and west of Valoran, Demacia and Noxus have always had a very clear tacit understanding. Their wrestling has always occurred outside each other's territory, sandwiched between two
The many principalities of Valoran between empires are the best places for war.
Demacia has the upper hand, so support a local government that favors Demacia.
Noxus has the upper hand, so support a local government that favors Noxus.
If they can't tell the difference, then the two local governments will fight each other, while Demacia and Noxus will stand behind the scenes and compete secretly.
Although sometimes, Demacia and Noxus will end up personally, but after all, this is "going to someone else's house to fight". Even if something is damaged, there is no need to feel bad. Even if the local farmland is destroyed and the city suffers, Demacia
Damages to Marcia and Noxus were also very limited.
When this kind of proxy war became a consistent pattern, the Gate of Sorrow, a place that was "close to the enemy and never started a war," became the best place for Demacians to gain military merit.
After all, this is the front line!
Compared with the Gate of Sorrow, Green Teeth Peak and Tobitsia are both at the rear!
One by one of those famous families, they have all sent their children to the Gate of Sorrow - as long as they work here for a year and return to the capital of Demacia, they will be considered to have "rich battlefield experience."
.
However, Jarvan IV, who has been aware of his mission since he was a child, is not willing to stay in peace for a year - he is not one of those dudes who really gilds for the sake of gilding. Jarvan IV had his own plans from the beginning.
.
……………………
In the eyes of Jarvan IV, Noxus is now in an extremely weak state.
The evidence for Jarvan IV's judgment is actually very clear. In the Ionian War not long ago, the Noxians lost completely.
Maybe others don't know much about Ionia, but Jarvan IV's teacher, Xin Zhao, came from that ancient and closed land. During his time as the prince's tutor, Xin Zhao introduced a lot about Ionia without reservation.
Asian things.
These introductions gave Jarvan IV a very detailed and clear understanding of Ionia. In his opinion, Ionia has its own unique culture and beliefs, but it lacks organizational power and does not even have a unified organization.
The government does not have a regular army.
And the Noxians? They fell into disgrace in a place like this...
In the eyes of Jarvan IV? This is no different than Noxus losing to the pirates.
Coupled with the civil strife in Besilico some time ago, the Trifari Chapter was forced to take action personally. Based on the above judgment? Jarvan IV believes that Noxus is now in a period of absolute weakness.
Therefore, Jarvan IV used his status as prince to mobilize as many troops as possible, and then laid a trap against the Noxian marauders in the name of "suppressing bandits".
According to Jarvan IV's original plan, these old Noxians should not be able to fart. His next step should be to use the name of "protecting the citizens of Demacia" to advance the front? Then expand Demacia.
actual control area, and then make the next step based on the Noxian's temptation.
As a result, during the routine interrogation, a few cowards were frightened and confessed everything - not only the robbery plan, but also Swain's series of actions against the Noxian political scene.
.
From the prisoner's mouth, Jarvan IV was surprised to learn that the current leader of Noxus had destroyed his foundation and attacked the nobles of Noxus!
Jarvan IV, who had received a noble education since childhood, would not be moved by Swain. At this time, he only believed that Swain would do whatever it takes to attack dissidents? In Jarvan IV's world view, nobles are natural leaders? Without nobles,
The civilians have lost their order!
And now Swain is persecuting the nobles of Noxus - without the nobles? Does Noxus still have generals available?
Jarvan IV, who originally wanted to give up as soon as he could, finally thought for a moment and took the initiative to cross the border, leading his team to raid the Gate of Sorrow!
After occupying this crucial stronghold, Jarvan IV went straight south from the Gate of Sorrow and led his troops across the Silver Mountains to attack Trivel!
According to the prisoners, there are only a few reclamation regiments in Trivel now, and there is no permanent main battle group. As long as Jarvan IV moves quickly enough, Trivel can be captured before the Noxians can react.
Will!
A great opportunity lies before Jarvan IV!
Decades ago, at the Gate of Sorrow, Jarvan I personally led the soldiers to charge, but was killed at the hands of Thane, the Hand of Noxus at the time.
Even the crown of Demacia fell into the hands of the Noxians - strictly speaking, the one on the head of Jarvan III is also strictly speaking a fake!
In that war, Demacia lost large areas of its borderland, and it was not until the Battle of Green Teeth that it was able to regain its position - this is Demacia's biggest shame!
And now, Jarvan IV has a chance to avenge his past humiliation!
As long as we seize this opportunity to capture Trivel, even if it cannot be occupied later due to war pressure, Demacia can still demand independence here - which is also a heavy blow to Noxus.
In this way, the Demacia army, led by their prince, set off lightly armed. After crossing the Silver Mountains, they rushed straight towards Trivel, a major town in the southwest of Noxus.
The army set up its formation, and Jarvan IV launched an offensive against Trivel in high spirits.
Chapter completed!
