Chapter 264 This Is Annan Style

With Zhuoya's explanation, Annan quickly understood.

... This is the plan laid out by Annan for the week's purpose.

His initial guess was completely correct - rather, it was because of his own plan that Annan was able to guess so well.

Because no one knows "Annan" better than Annan.

Think about it... what kind of predicament did the Principality of Winter faced ten years ago.

The Polar Brotherhood had already been established at that time, but it had not yet begun to build the curse cellar, but it was estimated that it had already had a connection with the Fallen;

Judging from the composition of the high-level icebreaker army, at that time, the group of winter hands represented by the "right hand" also had a lot of troublesome people mixed in...

Annan remembered that when he was in Noah, Old Bread mentioned that "Winter has blocked the news, and they can't get the information." All external matters are handled by the "right hand" of the Winter Hand.

This means that the Kingdom of Noah could even get information from the Hand of Winter before. Either someone is betraying the information, or a spy is simply sneaking in...

In addition, the mainland nobles in the winter are also uneasy - the curse of corpses circulating within the Melvin family is undoubtedly some kind of plan in progress; because Ivan's anti-corruption laws in various places have also made many local nobles disagree. He is dissatisfied, and the Winter family has not taken action for a long time... It really lacks deterrence.

If Annan of that year had found out something like the "curse of corpses" similar to the Melvin family... it belongs to the careful thoughts of all parties in Winter.

Then it is entirely possible that he directly used the "right thumb" Vladimir to take this powerful medicine.

——First, let the Winter Rebels gather all the Hands of Winter who are suspected to be spies of other countries or less capable of winter to their side, and then choose to defect. In this way, all these Hands of Winter will be wiped out... The Grand Duke will have an excuse to gather power.

These responsibilities are said to be merged into the left hand, but after all, this is the power that the Grand Duke has taken back and re-granted, and you must ask the Grand Duke before acting... This is equivalent to taking the power that has not been directly managed for a long time, once again received by your side.

In the subsequent liquidation, those local nobles who had funded the Icebreaker Army also had an excuse to clear them. This is also a large-scale decision to centralize power.

And as the last "use of waste", let Vladimir enter the underground world and continue to gather the enemy's winter power... While expanding his power, he can also plunder resources without hesitation of prestige.

In the end, Annan defeated it, and while obtaining these resources, he could also defeat the enemy Winter Force in one fell swoop.

- It is indeed a good plan.

It is indeed Annan's style.

Annan's plan usually pays attention to killing multiple birds with one stone. At that time, Annan was frozen by the Heart of Winter for nearly ten years, and his feelings were extremely weak... It is understandable that he was more ruthless than Annan.

"However, two years after he entered the underground world... [Winter Defender] suddenly stopped contacting us."

Zoya said so.

It is clear that the Winter Rebels are still active underground. Although his sense of presence is not very strong, he is indeed gathering the enemy's winter forces, and is constantly building and strengthening his own.

But he suddenly stopped contacting Lin Dong.

No matter how Lin Dong changed his contact information to find him, he could not find him or didn't reply.

In short, he has completely cut off his connection with Lin Dong... and Lin Dong can't reversely claim that "The Winter Defenders are actually the people we sent out", "This is what we planned from the beginning".

Those people are all settled, you said at this time that you are with the leader?

Then the inside of the winter will start to riot.

It would be the most troublesome thing if the Winter Rebels told this information - no matter whether the Archduke Winter admits it or not, as long as he said it and someone deliberately spread it out, it would cause considerable damage to the authority of the Archduke Winter. damage.

... But the problem is that the Winter Reversal didn't do that either.

He has a lot of material in his hands and knows a lot of secrets.

Once he really shakes out, it will cause a very big loss to Lin Dong... But he has not shaken out, and it is not easy for Lin Dong to send people to chase and kill him, nor does he dare to hire a saint to stop him.

"Because he didn't do anything harmful to Lin Dong, we can't be 100% sure that he did defect. But he has been accumulating power for so many years, but he has never contacted us even once... This is obviously not the case. Normal and unreasonable.

"I must also admit that Vladimir is the strongest Hand of Winter. He is proficient in all kinds of espionage techniques, tracking and anti-stalking techniques, and if he is being watched, he can easily leave a signal... not to mention not having People can watch him silently."

Zhuoya said cautiously at the time: "This matter is indeed very strange, but I suggest not to worry about it..."

Her opinion is to keep watching - at least not to push the "Winter Defender" to the other side and make him a real "Winter Defender".

Annan thought so too.

Compared to the hazy situation on the side of the Winter Reversal.

The Melvin family and the Far North Brotherhood will be much more real-

The former is "curse of corpse" and "gold forging", while the latter is "secret communication with the fallen" and "use of forbidden technology that has been sealed".

This jump is really refreshing.

They don't have that much sloppy guts at all.

At least when Annan was ready to start, he was still hesitant, not knowing whether it was a friend or an enemy.

Annan never liked to wait, and he acted simply and neatly.

When citalopram and Si Anke took time to go online at noon, Annan directly asked him to send it over.

Pulling on the three players of Citalopram, Si Anke and the Wandering Child, as well as the two high-level Winter Hands of "Left Ring Finger" Zoya and "Left Little Finger" Zorgen, Annan and his party set off directly.

- This is the second day of Annan's ascension to the throne.

It wasn't even twenty-four hours before he inherited the position of Grand Duke... He ran out of Frostwhisper directly.

At this time, Dmitri, who had just left the province, had just heard the news that Ivan had become a dragon and Annan had succeeded to the throne, and was about to rush back... As a result, before he left, Annan had already run out.

And he also holds the symbol of ecumenical authority - the "three-colored scepter".

This is a completely different action force from the frail and mild-mannered Archduke Ivan.

But at least Zoya and Zolgen didn't hate it.

Archduke Ivan is the type that no one will hate...

He usually acts with scruples, and generally chooses to mediate and eliminate disputes. Forcibly suppressing instability with "prosperity"... He is the grand duke of the generation who handled the winter the best and who escaped the winter with the fewest young people.

But this also means that Ivan will not be too tough in high-level battles.

Annan is different.

The people of Winter know that Dmitri has been helping Ivan with government affairs more than ten years ago - but none of them know that the youngest son of Archduke Ivan, "Annan Winter", has been with him since he was four years old. Already helping out with plans; hand-woven and unraveled conspiracies since the age of six.

When he was unable to run well, he could already use complex rituals of high difficulty; at the age of eight, he had already written poetry and invented more than ten new inventions such as the internal combustion engine.

While creating these great things, Annan even consciously hides himself... Only the high-level Hand of Winter and his immediate family know what he has done.

Of course, in Zoya's view, there is no need to hide such a thing at all.

Because it sounds too fantastic - anyone who sounds it will think that it is Ivan who is helping his youngest son.

In other words, bragging.

And Zhuoya and the others have long carried out several "not so gentle" but effective tough actions under Annan's command. It is precisely because of this soft and hard administrative means that Archduke Ivan, who even had to walk on crutches, was feared by those nobles.

But none of them could have imagined...

This "soft and hard" method originally consisted of two people, one soft and the other hard.

Now to outsiders, it seems that Archduke Annan has just ascended the throne and is very young, so the Hands of Winter must have many thoughts in their hearts.

But only these "ten fingers" know...they have actually been acting under Annan's command for a long time.

Compare Ivan's decision.

They prefer Annan's way of doing things.

For example, before Annan and his party went to Wrangel Province...

Annan asked the "left index finger" to write a transfer order.

First transfer the Frost Beast troops and place them at their door quietly.

Is it scary?

- Yes, it's scary.
