I'm really not an NPC

Chapter 527 Can't beat Nightingale City?

534 chapter

Every noble is ambitious.

James was not surprised either.

His ambition is naturally promotion.

Don't look at how majestic he is the lord of Jaime, who once stood up to Kadiwen.

But in fact, his title is Viscount, far inferior to Caddy's, and it is precisely because of this that he is tired of dealing with Caddy!
If it weren't for the Grand Duke's backing, Caddy would have killed him many times!
In the final analysis, James' title is still too low, even with the title of City Lord, he can't confront Caddy head-on!

But if he is the earl!

So sorry.

Caddy is no longer his opponent!

James might not even take it seriously!
In short, in many confrontations with Kadiwen.

James was secretly annoyed that his title was too low to be on an equal footing with Kadiwen, so he fell into a disadvantage.

Now, Li En uses the gimmick of "promotion" to lure him.

Even though he knew it was a scam, James was still tempted.

Li En smiled and said, "Father-in-law, I'm not trying to seduce you, I'm just being reasonable. In peaceful times, it's very difficult to be promoted to a nobleman. Many noblemen may not be able to rise to a higher level even if they spend their entire lives..."

"Throughout history! Even if it's Cadiwen's family, father-in-law, you can tell, right? The current earls and marquises are basically made on horseback!"

James said sourly, "No, you're not."

"Uh……"

Li En touched his nose and said awkwardly: "I'm an exception. To be honest, the Grand Duke has no choice but to do this. Why are you nobles so disobedient that you can't bear any military expenses?"

James nodded.

Grand Dukes are very powerful on the battlefield.

But in terms of internal affairs, he actually has many deficiencies.

He was not tough enough to manage the local nobles.

Over time, everyone is no longer afraid of him, and all kinds of yin and yang are contradicting, so the Grand Duke's military expenditure this time has been miserably cheated.

Relying on money to buy a title seems like a scam, but in fact, the Grand Duke has nothing to do.

He needs money to fight the war.

If money is not available, the country will perish.

And even if you want to clean up the nobles who are yin and yang, the Grand Duke can't do it right now.

The war must end and the situation stabilized.

If there is no defeat in this battle, if there is no accident, the Grand Duke will sign a treaty of equality after resisting Dina, and then he will carry out various internal affairs to eliminate the gang of disobedient thorny nobles.

The tragedy is that before all these plans can be implemented, the Grand Duke is already about to perish...

In other words, the Grand Duke is facing internal and external troubles, and it is actually normal for him to die.

"Li En, I know what you mean. You want to say that in this troubled world, if I succeeded in resisting the young duke, if the country survives, the grand duke will definitely promote me to an earl or even a marquis in order to reward me afterwards?"

James smiled wryly.

Li En nodded and said: "That's right! Father-in-law, this is the formula I want to persuade you. I know all this seems so unrealistic! But don't forget! We are men! Men will face difficulties Come on! Isn’t he just Duke Dina! If he dares to come, why don’t we dare to hit him?”

Lord Jaime fell silent.

After a full 3 minutes.

He smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, I promise, I will accompany you to fight against Duke Dina!"

"it is good!"

Li En was overjoyed and relieved.

My "father-in-law" is not as timid as a mouse!

This is the person I admire!
Afterwards, James said again: "Li En, I have seen your determination. To be honest, I admire it very much, but even if you form an army, I don't object, but why do you have to rely on arms? Cavalry. Supplies. Archers are still strong on the battlefield..."

Li En said: "Strength is strength, but these soldiers are still inferior to spearmen with ammunition! And...whether it is cavalry, supplementary soldiers, or even archers, this kind of soldiers need to be tempered before they can leave the army! But spearmen are different! As long as they have firecrackers, they have combat effectiveness! And the training period is very short. As long as the average person is not blind or mentally handicapped, they can basically shoot guns after three days of training. Plug and play, Yue Fei, do you understand? "

"Plug and play? I don't understand."

James naturally shook his head: "But I understand what you're thinking. I also know about firecrackers and guns. To be honest, I am a job changer. With my body and armor, these bullets can't hurt me, but I'm weak. A small number of soldiers may not be able to resist, so the combat effectiveness of spearmen is indeed the most stable."

"Look, father-in-law, you understand me, right? Then you haven't planned to attack Nightingale City yet?"

Li En was overjoyed immediately.

"Ugh!"

James sighed: "Li En, we can't fight in Nightingale City!"

"Why can't you fight?"

Li En became anxious immediately.

I've wasted so much saliva, but you told me that Nightingale City can't be beaten?

He felt his head hurt.

James sighed: "Don't worry, I'm not saying that you don't want to fight, but that you can't fight..."

"Since father-in-law is willing, why not?"

Li En was completely puzzled.

"See for yourself!"

James pulled out a booklet.

Li En spread it out and took a look, his expression changed slightly.

There is a picture in this booklet.

Lifelike paintings.

In the picture is a city.

The city is located on the edge of a cliff, halfway up a mountain.

If you want to enter the city, you have to start from the ground and climb up.

There is no doubt that this is a city that is easy to defend but difficult to attack!

Occupy the commanding heights, have the advantage of vision, the left, right, and rear are cliffs, and you don't have to worry about being attacked!

Just guard against the frontal enemy!

This is definitely an invincible city!
Li En understood what his father-in-law meant.

Exclaimed: "Is this Nightingale City?"

"good."

James nodded: "This is Nightingale City. Li En, this city has never been breached for thousands of years, so do you think we can breach it?"

Li En thought about it.

Unless you have a Blue Star modernized army.

Otherwise, it will be very difficult to attack the city!
Even with artillery, it is difficult to fire a gun!

Don't think that you can destroy a city with artillery!
There are magicians in this world.

Magicians can set up defensive barriers.

Under the protection of the defensive barrier, the artillery can't blow up the city's walls!
And the Musketeers want to break through this strong city wall?
Go uphill first!

If nothing else happened, when the Musketeers went uphill first, they might have been completely wiped out by the enemies above!

Therefore, even if Li En and James combine to defeat this Nightingale City, they will not be able to defeat it!

"Fuck!"

Li En didn't expect the result to be like this, he was so angry that he wanted to kick the stool!

Lord James was taken aback, and immediately stood up to comfort him, "Li En, calm down, calm down first!"

"Father-in-law! I can't calm down! I must get this batch of ammunition!"

Li En blushed and growled.

Just now, the system started bubbling again.

"Hey, please enter the Nightingale City within seven days, and successfully master this batch of arms! Otherwise, the consequences will be serious! Serious!"

Yes, I just found out that this is a city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the system issued a task.

Isn't this a man's mentality?
Li En was about to explode.

"Ahem! Li En, don't worry, there is a way. I have already thought of a way on the way here..."

James became a "confidant brother" in a rare way, and began to comfort him.

"Is there a way? How should I do it?"

Li En expressed that he was in a hurry.

James, however, took a sip of tea slowly and said, "Under positive circumstances, we will not be able to enter Nightingale City, so the only way we can go is to sneak in!"

"Sneak in? It's not necessarily impossible, but we arrange spies to sneak in, and we can't get arms!"

Li En said helplessly.

James put down the teacup, looked at Li En solemnly and said, "Li En, we can't send spies into Nightingale City, we can only send one person to seize the arms!"

A person?

Capture the arms?

Li Enren was a little dizzy, and subconsciously asked, "Who is that person?"

James said with a complicated face, "You."
