Chapter 628 (1/2)
He's obviously not as knowledgeable as Brian.
This is a common problem of blood fortresses on the fracture surface, because they followed the traditional idea that they only focused on personal force, and they did not put much energy into theoretical knowledge.
It was not until the collision with Yongye military leader that Cedric realized the power of knowledge that his ideas changed and adjusted slowly. Some cultural courses were added to the army.
As a result, it can be imagined that in the past year, the officers at all levels of the blood castle at the fracture site were in dire straits. It was more difficult for them to practice reading and writing with quill pens than to let them fight in the battlefield.
Seiderek closed his eyes and pondered. General Esmond knew that this was his father's habit of thinking. He did not dare to disturb him.
After a few minutes.
Seiderek opened his eyes suddenly and said: ”this is a firm view, but it is too passive to do so. The other side is using this way to test our reality. Once we give up the attack, they will be allowed to mobilize their forces to attack our weak points. The number of black fire medicine barrels and arrows stored in each fortress is limited, which is temporary If they continue to attack a point, they will still be forced into the most dangerous normal urban defense operations. ”
”If Odin orcs attack regardless of casualties, this is inevitable.” Brann nodded, ”the initiative of this kind of defensive warfare is in the hands of the attackers, especially when our defense line is so long. The only thing we can do is to ensure that the mobile troops are ready to support the critical juncture at any time, and be ready for a bloody war.”
”That's what they say, but before that, let's get their energy together.” Lord Cedric's eyes fell on the military sand table.
”What does your majesty mean?” Esmond looked inquisitive.
”Their main force outside the blood Fort did not take action. In addition to trying to test the combat effectiveness of our whole defense line and exploring ways to deal with the black fire medicine barrel, the most important thing was that they were afraid that things would happen to them at other points, causing the main force to flee. There was no way to recover them at that time.” According to Cedric.
”Do you mean that you want to move the blood horse from the fracture to attract their main force to attack the blood castle?” Brian's chief of staff was thinking.
”That's right.” Cedric nodded, ”the blood castle is the key point of the whole defense line. Over the years, the streches have invested the most manpower and material resources on it. It seems to be the most dangerous point. In fact, it is the most solid place. In the past, with the help of normal defense means, it has no problem dragging the orcs for a year and a half, let alone owning a lot of black powder.
Another advantage of actively leading them to fight is to test the rationality of our deployment and further improve it.
When the blood castle was built, it was just a simple castle. It grew into the present one in a bloody battle.
Every time you get disabled, when you rebuild the next time, the blood castle will be stronger.
Therefore, I am not afraid that they will come to attack the blood castle, but I am afraid that they are not willing to go out and do tricks on other points. ”
”I see. Where do you want to start?” Brann went on.
”If the blood riding is adjusted too far, our intention will be too obvious. If it is too close, they will not be able to rest assured. This is just the right place.” Archduke Cedric points to a medium-sized fortress in the broken vein line.
This medium-sized fortress is nothing but Hukou fort.
”It's nearly a day's journey from the blood castle at the fracture. After the Western Odin Empire got the news, it was enough for them to take military action against the blood fort. Even if they didn't want to be cheated, they certainly would not think that we would dare to send blood horses so far away, and the rate of ambush there was very low, which could defeat more of their tribes and weaken their strength, It's always good. It's a strategy with the best of both worlds. I personally agree. If your majesty has decided, I'll bring out more detailed military strategies. ” Brann's chief of staff voted for it.
”What about ace's opinion?” Cedric turned his head and looked at his son and right-hand man.
”Military strategy and strategy are the business of your majesty and the chief of staff. We only fight in front of us! After all, your brains are more flexible than ours. If you think it is feasible, it must be. ” General Esmond grinned. ”It's not so easy for them to ambush us. It's not the first time we rush into the prairie and go around behind them.”
”It's settled. If the other party bites the hook, we can lead them and slip away for a longer time to win more time for us.” The Grand Duke of Cedric finally said.
Two of the big three in the fracture blood Fort have been fixed, and this matter is basically no problem.
General Pedro is a typical strong general. His executive ability is far above his advice. Even if he is present, he will not raise any objection.
”If there's nothing else, I'll go and prepare for it. Wait until you come up with detailed tactics, and then call me.” General Esmond asked to leave.”Go! Don't spend all your energy on the army. Take a hot bath, have a good meal and sleep. There is still a fight in this war. ” Said the Archduke Cedric.
Even though general Esmond is over 70 years old and has more than half a century of war experience, he still does not seem to be fully grown up in his eyes.
”I see.” General Esmond waved his hand without looking back and strode away. As for whether he heard or not, it was only he who knew.
”Is your army leader's plan on the eastern front going well?” Seiderek turned to blann and added, ”we are just chatting now, not asking questions. If it's convenient, we don't have to answer if it's inconvenient.”
”It needs to be taboo to others, but not to your majesty.” Brann replied, ”it's just that I don't know much about the situation. I only know that our worries have been completely solved and that the kentana have become part of our army.”
”Count Shawn has captured the barbarians? How did he do it? ” The eldest Duke of Cedric looked surprised.
A long time ago, Lord Cedric knew that the young count and his army leader could not be measured by common sense.
I didn't expect that as soon as he turned his head, he would become an earth shaking event.
In the eyes of Byrons, the kentana barbarians are a true legend.
Many people even doubt whether this race really exists.
But in these legends, without exception, they are synonymous with power and barbarism.
There are even legends that they lived a primitive life of cannibalism.
Even the Great Duke Cedric was deeply influenced by these legends. In his previous letters, Sean told him to plan for the Odin prairie after clearing the worries of the Yongye army leader.
He thought this was literally, and he was going to kill all the barbarians on the kentana ice sheet!
The difficulty of reducing capture is far above killing.
”If you ask him about this matter, you might as well ask me directly!” A voice came from behind Cedric.
”Count Shawn?” Seiderek suddenly turned around, looking a little suspicious.
In the corner behind him, there was a black cheetah who sat up as tall as a man, and his voice, which was just like Sean, came out of his mouth.
And Brann's reaction confirmed this, bowing down and saying, ”Lord.”
”You don't need to be too surprised. Just like the energy incarnation I met with you last time, it's just an application of the power of the technique.” Sean actively explained, ”I didn't mean to eavesdrop or peep. I just wanted to prove the unique ability of this energetic body to the Great Duke.”
”How long have you been here?” Asked the Archduke of Cedric in a hurry.
The potential meaning of Sean's explanation dispelled his anger that he was unconsciously touched.
He was able to hide from himself and Esmond's eyes and ears, as well as from the orcs of Odin.
