Chapter 1033 (2/2)
”Judging from our past experience and the enemy's way of attacking the city, the only option for the enemy to attack the fortress of duanjieshan is to attack at any cost; but we are fully prepared and will never give them such an opportunity!”
”According to the conclusion of the battle of eboden, the enemy had little means to counteract the cavalry raid, so Archduke saleka Jonah organized an elite cavalry to attack the flanks of the siege army when necessary; if we could take the opportunity to attack and destroy the enemy's baggage forces...”
”Past experience?”
Connord interrupted him very abruptly.
”Your Majesty...” when the deputy commander of the fortress wanted to say something, connord turned to look at him.
”Dreisis, I ask you,” Conrad said, ”if I gave you an army of 40000 people to attack and seize the fortress from the north of the barrier mountain fortress... What would you do?”
”I...” dreisis frowned slightly and didn't understand what the emperor wanted to do: ”I will use a small number of troops to test the Garrison's defense and strength, and then organize as many attacks as possible in the shortest time to gradually break through the fortress's defense.”
Connord continued, ”in other words, when the fortress is captured, your army has lost its combat effectiveness, right?”
Dreisis nodded, which he did not deny and felt nothing to be ashamed of.
No, he even feels a little proud - because this is the north gate of the Empire, which is an iron wall built by his Garrison for many years; Any enemy who wants to attack here must do a good job in the end that ”fighting to one soldier and one soldier” may be defeated and return home.
”So... The enemy should also know this, so they will never attack us in this way.” Connor gave him an expressionless look:
”Past experiences, battles, and even information we already know may not be as meaningful in the face of this army as we thought.”
”In other words, just as we will not fight as they think; the Azores will never attack the fortress of duanjie mountain in a way that must be a failure, just like us.”
”Yes...” dreisis lowered his head and whispered bitterly.
”Don't get me wrong, dreisis, I didn't mean to accuse you.” Conrad shook his head. ”Before we really fight the enemy, we don't know what they look like, what tactics and characteristics they have, and what weaknesses we all know.”
”Therefore, we will fear; after all, for a completely unknown existence, anyone - including me - will feel fear, which is normal and reasonable, because without fear, we will not have courage.”
”But we can't be controlled by fear, let alone panic and don't know what to do. That's the real danger.” connord stared at dreisis with his head down and his face full of shame:
”If Sarika Jonah is afraid, I will have to lose a good cavalry commander, but I can't help it, because I have plenty of such people;”
”If Loren Turin is afraid, I know I can let the oath Knights replace him and lead the fortress's army north to guard the blood skeleton Valley, which is nothing;”
”If all my generals are frightened in front of the elves, it doesn't matter - I just want them to fear me more than the elves;”
”If I'm scared too... I know I have my most trusted drexis Ernst who can take command at a critical time and replace me.”
”So... Dreisis.” Connor sighed and patted him on the shoulder:
”If you are also terrified... What do you want me to do? Who can expect rich experience to carry on the plan against the fear of an unknown battle?”
”Your Majesty --!!!”
Without half hesitation, dreisis knelt down on one knee with a bang.
As the actual power holder and imperial aristocrat of duanjieshan fortress for many years, he has not heard of flattery and ”appreciation” from the royal family - as an imperial aristocrat, he has long been immune to these.
But when this praise comes out of connord's mouth, the meaning is completely different; He understood that the emperor was purely out of the recognition of his years of service and the trust and affirmation of his ability.
Connord shook his head helplessly.
Whenever things change, he will feel the wise and wise of his father, akhat II - it was the most wise decision for his fashionable and young father to defeat the demon invasion under the duanjieshan fortress, to leave his most trusted dreisis in the duanjieshan fortress and gradually support him to become the fortress commander rather than bring him back to the imperial capital as a confidant.
Because the general was so simple that he almost wrote his likes and dislikes on his face; Of course, if it's just like this, the superior has the right not to consider the feelings of the people below; But dreisis is also an extremely vulnerable guy to other people's words.
With only one word, he can immediately recover his reason from tension and find a calm and decisive backbone; From this point of view, he is no different from the ordinary soldiers under his command.
However, it is for this reason that a strict commander like him can be trusted by the soldiers - because they all know that ”general” is no different from himself and will never pit himself.
Loyal but honest generals, capable but rebellious priests, capable but not ambitious royal members, ambitious but also capable spikes... My father can always do his best to arrange them in the most appropriate position.
And they are willing.
”Woo - - - -!!”
With the horn ringing through the whole fortress, beacon towers were lit one after another, illuminating the bleak duanjie mountain.
”It's the sentry tower in the West - Azores, they're coming!” dreisis stared at the direction of the horn in amazement:
”But... They should have at least one day to go...”
”If the war is predictable and predictable, we don't have to take so much trouble to build such a solid fortress, dreisis.”
Coldly looking back, Conrad pressed his shoulder: ”get ready to fight, my general.”
”The war has begun!”
