The Marquis hesitated for a moment. He didn’t want to say those uncertain words. But he also knew that if he didn’t say anything, the master would probably still go around in circles with him.
“Some colleagues in the War Department and I have done research and believe that the empire did this because of its geographical location. This town was not important when it was in the hands of the Yafa people, but now that it is owned by us, It became the starting point of our western border between Beru and Yafa.
“Because we are separated by the Devil’s Mountains, it is almost impossible for a war to happen on land, so the two sides can only send out aerial cavalry to harass each other.
“If an air cavalry regiment is stationed here, on the one hand it can ensure the smooth flow of several major roads near Sherut, and at the same time it can attack Nori and Mandy in Yafa to the west, Bonero to the southwest, and reinforcements to the south. border.”
