Chapter 961 (2/2)
Roland did not have as many men as Sylvie who could keep every transport corp away fro their journey Nor did he depend on those recruits to fight back hard when they were attacked If the arht not be able to pull out, let alone push forward
But he could not let anyone see his irresolution at this crucialelse”
”As you command, Your Majesty,” Ferlin said with a hand on his chest
A night slipped away unnoticed The General Staff handed over the plan in the afternoon the next day
There were two of them
Edith Kant would be the reporter
”You've stayed up all night?” Roland asked, noticing soht puffiness under her eyes
”Everyone orking so hard How could I take a rest alone?” Edith shrugged ”Just take it as compensation for the mistake I made last time”
”Is she co inwardly He then waved his hand and did not take it seriously ”Tell me the conclusion”
”Okay” She pointed at the left sheet of paper and said, ”If we march on, as usual, the Devilbeasts will surely spot the main body of our troops By then, the commander's ability will determine how the battle will turn out Because the General Staff doesn't have the corresponding information, we just assume the worst Our conclusion is that the First Army can accomplish the mission However, they'll be routed by the demons and only half of the army, about 2500 reat danger, and all of them can safely escape if they don't make any rash moves”
”The result doesn't see with the logistics?”
”Yes,” Edith said bluntly ”Once the demons attack the supply line, the First Army has to send reinforcements However, it's ioes the casualties get heavier, et disheartened too A week later, the attack from the enemies will become harder to track, and meanwhile, the arded as the simplest part of the whole war Your ar the enemies' outpost, but the rear will be on fire”
”You mean Neverwinter?”
”No, it's a fire in the Misty Forest set by the de in the forest The fire will burn down the safe passage opened by Lady Leaf so that the transport corps have to take a detour, which is three tier That means the supply for the First Army will be cut off coe and has no choice but to withdraw” Edith cleared her throat and continued, ”Of course, the nuh, but there is no certainty about that Judging froive up the outpost so easily”
Roland was ah nu up the idea of a fire in the forest?”
”It's Knight Morning Light,” Edith said imperturbably ”But after the analysis, we believe it's possible if the war lasts long enough for the de in the Misty Forest”
Roland had been ready to see any result, but he was still depressed by such an adverse inference ”What about the second plan? Don't tell ht for a negative answer?”
Roland also knew that if he wanted to rival the demons on the Fertile Plains, he needed to face the limit of the land transportation sooner or later He would not bother to build a railway so hastily if he could quickly send the ammunition and the food to the soldiers at the front
”No, Your Majesty” The Pearl of the Northern Region chuckled ”The second plan is different Since we can't guarantee the safety of the supply line, we just let it disappear”
