"Does anyone else have questions?"
Under Aigron's questioning, everyone present nodded and agreed with his opinion, and Aigron finally unified his thoughts again.
Then, he looked at Michelle Ney again, "Michelle, I think you should know even if I don't tell you. In order to cooperate with the actions of the Count of Monte Cristo and to achieve the surprise of the attack, during this period, We must continue to assume a strong offensive posture——"
At this point, he said no more.
And Michelle Ney naturally understood what he meant.
In order to confuse the enemy, they will continue to launch attacks and adopt a posture of breaking through the front at all costs.
And this means that they must continue to suffer casualties and continuously launch attacks on the fortress.
This will put the army under huge pressure, and if it is not handled well, it will have serious consequences - this is the reason why the Turkish army failed many times when it besieged the Mesolonghion Fortress.
When soldiers see no hope of victory for a long time, they will eventually lose confidence in storming bastions and fortresses. As a result, they will either disobey orders or lose all initiative, and eventually their morale will even collapse.
Therefore, while continuing to attack and at the same time maintaining discipline even after many failed attempts, extremely firm measures are required.
"Your Majesty, I am loyal to you, so I am obliged to obey your orders. Since you need me to do this, I will definitely carry it out to the end." Without any hesitation, Michel Ney answered directly , "I will resolutely order them to continue the attack. No matter what the opinions of the officers and soldiers below, I will bear all the responsibilities!"
Seeing the other party's answer, Aigron nodded in relief.
There is no doubt that his decision will cost many lives - but it will be worth it as long as it creates the conditions for ultimate victory.
He doesn't like squandering human lives, but when necessary, he doesn't mind risking the lives of his men.
"When we launch an attack in the future, we must find ways to minimize casualties and losses. If the situation goes bad and the officers at the front are allowed to retreat on their own, we just need to show the defenders that we will never give up the attack." After thinking for a moment, He added a little more. "The artillerymen should not be idle, they should fire every day to put pressure on them!"
This morning's shelling has proved to have little effect in front of the bastion and is not enough to help them penetrate the defense line, but Aigron still hopes to use the sound of shelling to torture the defenders' nerves and leave them in a state of neurasthenia. ——In this case, Edmond Dantes' surprise attack will be more certain.
"Understood!" Michel Ney nodded in agreement. He also hoped that his subordinates could be preserved as much as possible.
In this way, this military meeting ended in a solemn atmosphere.
Although the result of the tentative attack in the morning made everyone lose confidence in breaking through the fortress head-on, after Aigron revealed his true purpose, a little hope was rekindled in their hearts, which at least allowed them to find a way to continue. Grit your teeth and insist on attacking.
——It’s here anyway, so just hold on for a while and see what happens. That's what most people think.
Now is the time to verify the capabilities of the first nobleman bestowed by His Majesty, the Count of Monte Cristo.
After the military meeting ended, Aigron returned to the camp where he rested.
At this time, Chanel was already waiting inside.
At this time, Chanel looked pale and looked a little distracted.
When the army launched its attack this morning, she was also watching the battle next to the camp on the high ground and witnessed such a fight.
Having followed Aigron for so long, she was frightened by such a bloody scene - after all, she had never seen a dead body lying on a pillow before.
Moreover, although she knew nothing about military affairs, she could tell from the scene alone that her side had suffered a setback.
Therefore, when she saw Aigron with a serious face, she was nervous and distressed.
"Your Majesty, are you okay?" she asked in a panic.
"I'm fine." Aigron shook his head, "It's just a trial attack. Failure is not a big deal. Everything is still within the plan."
Seeing Aiglon say this, Chanel's nervousness finally eased a little, but even so, she couldn't help but feel depressed.
In her heart, everything about her had already been tied to this young man. She was happy for his success and sad for his failure. So how could she be happy when she saw this scene?
But the worse she felt, the more she felt that she had to share her master's worries - although the young man seemed calm and composed in front of her, how could she not see the irritability in his heart after the two had been together for so long?
"Your Majesty..." Chanel said softly, "You are right, this is just a temporary defeat. Your loyal soldiers will definitely win it for you."
"I hope so - but if my plan fails in the end, then I can only admit defeat, take them away from here, and return to Nafpaktos in despair." Aigron shrugged. “But I figured that since God had blessed me to get to this point, He would continue to bless me with a little more good luck.”
Aiglon did not tell Chanel about his plan, and Chanel thoughtfully did not continue to ask further questions.
She just hugged the young man tightly and used her own warmth to comfort him. "God will definitely be on your side, because you are fighting for justice. The entire Christian world is cheering for your righteous deeds. How can God remain unmoved?"
Although Egron knew that such words made no sense, if God was useful, how could Constantinople fall into the hands of the pagans in 1453?
But Chanel's sincerity still moved him.
He suddenly felt that in this depressed atmosphere, it was really a good thing to have Chanel here to comfort him with enthusiasm.
So, he also reached out and hugged Chanel, lowered his head, and greedily sniffed and kissed her neck and collarbone to relax himself.
"Chanel, let me tell you the truth, I'm not sure. I just know that I have to give it a try, because there is only one way at the moment." Aiglon muttered in a low voice, "I have to make a confident appearance in front of everyone. They look full, because only when they see me like this will they have confidence, but... I am not a god who can predict everything. I will also be uneasy and uneasy, and I will be even more afraid that I will live up to everyone's expectations! But... I am not a god who can predict everything. , I have to calm myself down and eliminate my fear, because I have to win, and I have nothing but victory.”
Aigron's words seemed to be spoken to Chanel as well as to himself, but Chanel just listened quietly, and then hugged the young man tightly, letting him show his occasional weakness in front of her.
"Your Majesty, you will definitely win, because you are Your Majesty! You are destined to achieve great things! And I will always follow you and share your glory..."
After the two hugged each other for a while, Aigron left Chanel's body.
At this moment, after receiving some tender comfort from Chanel, he suddenly felt as if he had been injected with some kind of cardiotonic drug, and he suddenly became energetic again.
Yes, in retrospect, he has gone from a young man with nothing in Schonbrunn Palace to today, and there are so many people following him without any regrets. He has already made a lot of money, so why should he worry about gains and losses?
In a sense, he has always been playing the role he must play. Even in front of his fiancée, he must be a smart and sharp wise man and a talented poet - but in front of Chanel, no matter what face he shows or what he says, Whatever she says is "right" because he is destined to be her loyal master.
"Thank God, I have you by my side to say these words!" He couldn't help but smile happily.
"No matter when and where you want, you can say whatever you want to me..." Chanel smiled slightly. "Your Majesty, I have no secrets from you, and you can also leave all your moments of hesitation and uneasiness to me... you can leave them all to me..."
Because of Aiglon's sniffing and kissing just now, she felt a tingling sensation in her chest and her whole body felt hot.
So her voice became much softer than before, so much so that Aigron couldn't help but feel excited. He looked into Chanel's eyes again, and after their eyes met, he couldn't control himself anymore.
Those eyes were full of adoration, trust and loyalty, as if for her, there was nothing else in the world and no need for anything else.
Yes, she has always followed me, and will always follow me - a fire suddenly lit up in Aigron's heart.
It suddenly occurred to him that they were the only two people here at this moment.
——This seems to mean that he can do whatever he wants, and no blind person will bother him or stop him.
Originally, he thought he should restrain himself and focus on the war and not distract himself, but at this moment, he changed his mind.
He wanted to completely clear away the annoyance and annoyance caused by the defeat. He wanted to repay Chanel's loyalty and love to him. He wanted to taste the ecstasy of happiness again in order to reward himself for his long life. The abstinence and toil of time.
Not only, but immediately, immediately, now.
It was his will not to want to do it before, but it is also his will to think about it now. Although the direction was changed just one day apart, he didn't feel there was any contradiction.
I can do whatever I want!
"You just said that you don't have any secrets in front of me -" Aigron raised the corners of his mouth and showed a strange smile. So, Chanel, why are you covering up now? "
Chanel was stunned for a moment, not understanding why her master accused her so, but looking at Aiglon's smile, she understood immediately.
"Yeah!" She couldn't help but shout a little.
In this sound, there was surprise, anger, and a little excitement and excitement, but there was no disgust or disgust.
Isn't this what she expected and waited for?
Then, with almost no resistance, she reached behind her back and tried to unbutton her skirt.
The young man, who was already interested, simply pulled her into his arms, and then reached out to help her unbutton.
Chanel bumped into the young man's chest, which was a little painful, but she still didn't make any struggle. Instead, she smiled slightly and looked at the young man's face, as if she wanted to encourage him.
For her, this is indeed the best reward.
After Her Royal Highness Teresa arrived, she had endured it for so long. Wasn't her heart filled with the same desire at this moment?
Aigron did feel her catering and encouragement, so he used his hands harder and harder. He pulled hard impatiently, and the button that was blocking him was torn off to the ground with a whine.
After peeling off the skirt, he took off the petticoat again, so Chanel was "candid" with him, and there were no more secrets.
He picked up Chanel and put her on the cot.
Then, he stood by the bed, taking off his clothes and looking at Chanel.
"Your Majesty..." Chanel seemed to feel shy at this moment. She hurriedly closed her eyes and shouted out softly.
But doesn’t this voice sound tempting?
At least to Aiglon's ears, this was an invitation.
So of course he wouldn't stop.
As a result, the weight of two people was added to the small camp bed, and it creaked and screamed as it shook, protesting the experience it had endured.
I don't know how long it took before this sudden violent storm came to an end. Aigron lay down tiredly, while Chanel showed a satisfied and comfortable expression.
Aigron held Chanel in his arms again, enjoying the rare tenderness.
"Chanel, I'm sorry... I may have been too rough." He whispered.
"Your Majesty, why do you need to apologize to me?" Chanel opened her eyes wide, then shook her head gently, "This is my obligation and my honor..."
After she finished speaking, she smiled sweetly, "I'm very happy that I have a place in your heart, and it's really comfortable! I know that you will always have Her Majesty Teresa by your side in the future. However, as long as there is still today, I have nothing more to ask for..."
Aiglon smiled and said nothing.
Chanel's gentleness and obedience really made him intoxicated, and also made him know how happy it is to be worshiped by others.
Although he had really "exercised", at this moment, instead of feeling tired, he felt as if he had been recharged. His whole body felt extremely comfortable and full of endless energy.
More importantly, he regained the arrogance that vowed to conquer everything.
Now that he has enjoyed such a taste, he must stay there forever. He cannot accept losing this.
Yes, there are too many difficulties and obstacles in front of me, and I have encountered some setbacks now.
——But so what! Victory ultimately belongs to oneself, and must belong to oneself.
