Chapter 1265 (2/2)
Therefore, if you want to block the incoming grassland army, there is no other way but to send more troops to the north.
”... your majesty.”
But Elvin did not immediately take orders.
But after a moment of silence, he said in a deep voice to shad:
”The lower officer thinks it's too late to dispatch troops from the eastern defense line.”
”The terrain is extremely rugged from the east to the north of China.”
”It will take a lot of time to finish this extremely rugged road.”
”Moreover, only 80000 troops can be transferred from the eastern defense line.”
”The total scale of the incoming grassland army is more than 100000!”
”There are really fewer reinforcements.”
”Therefore - the lower officer believes that it is not feasible to dispatch troops from the East alone.”
”We should dispatch troops from the East and west at the same time!”
In order to launch the Nibelungen plan, as early as last year, the Frankish Empire completed the deployment and adjustment of all troops in the country.
Most of the troops were transferred to the West. They were responsible for the decisive battle with the British Empire.
Some troops were deployed to the east to resist possible attacks by grassland people.
The number of troops deployed in the East and west directions already accounts for 90% of the country's total military strength.
The remaining 10% of the military strength is scattered to the north and various places.
Even the imperial capital, Beru, did not leave much troops.
Elvin refers to dispatching troops in the East and West, which means that some of the troops who are moving away from the eastern defense line and are fighting with the British Army on the territory of the British Empire will reinforce the north that will be attacked by the grassland people.
As soon as Elvin's voice fell, shad shouted without thinking:
”No! Walter's troops cannot be transferred! ”
”The army in the west is now fighting a big battle to bet on the national fortune!”
”If the transfer of troops leads to the reduction of combat power and the loss of the war, the country will be over!”
”No soldier or pawn can be transferred!”
Elvin seemed to have guessed that shad would say so. As soon as shad finished speaking, Elvin immediately said:
”Your majesty! If the grassland people attack our country because they can't reach the grassland people, our country is over! ”
Elvin's words, like some magic, made shad hesitate and hesitate, unable to think of the retort.
Elvin, on the other hand, pursued the victory:
”Your majesty! You don't know what temperament grassland people are! ”
”They are experts in plunder and destruction!”
”If these jackals are allowed to enter China, there is no doubt that it will be a heavy blow to China's national strength!”
”If grassland people are brave enough, they can even go directly to the imperial capital of our country!”
”At present, Bolu has few defenders. If it is besieged by grassland people, the consequences will be unimaginable!”
”The road from the west to the north is flat! The troops in the West will arrive in the North much faster than those in the East! ”
”As long as the troops in the West take the lead in arriving in the north, they will be able to hold back the grassland people and buy time for the arrival of the troops in the East!”
”When the eastern army arrives, it will no longer be a problem to resist the grassland people outside the country!”
”So - your majesty! Please send troops from the west to reinforce the North! ”
Chard felt that Walter's troops were now wagering a great war on the fate of their Frankish empire.
Therefore, we must not transfer any soldier of the Western army, resulting in a reduction in combat effectiveness.
At the same time, he also felt that Elvin's words were reasonable.
