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."
