Release that Witch Chapter 961: Two plans
"What do you think?" Roland looked at the light curtain surging on the wall, and wanted to understand the intent of Devil, Taqila survivor is undoubtedly the group with the most say.
"Old tricks," Elicia snorted. "It's time to take military force if intimidation doesn't work. I've said long ago that while threatening pressure, it's approaching step by step. It's their trick against human feudal lord. If you change to witch city, Devil will only choose to kill everything. "
"But the last time you predicted the advancement of Devil was about half a year."
"cough cough, this is calculated based on the average construction time of a large camp, maybe they are too anxious." The latter voice is slightly awkward. "Furthermore, the war situation is ever-changing, and it is foolish to press the map. I haven't asked you to relax your vigilance. "
Hello, this joke is a big deal. It is necessary to keep surveillance, but the response plan is arranged according to the time node. If it takes the enemy half a year to gain a foothold, his tracks can be laid on the opponent's face. When the armored train and rail artillery arrived together, he didn't believe that Devil had the energy to drive out of the outpost.
"Elicia did not conceal it intentionally, and I agreed with her before." Agatha seemed to see the suspicion of Roland, and said, "About the timeline for the expansion of the red line, it was Federation that paid a heavy price to get information. , And until the Holy City is destroyed, this part of the information has never missed -- and half a year is already the limit of Devil. "
"So what do you mean, Devil has now exceeded this limit, and the timetable exchanged with blood doesn't work anymore?" Edith said a hand. "Of course, it is not incomprehensible that the ancient intelligence of 400 years ago has lost its effectiveness.
Roland can't help but feel a brow. If there are ordinary people present who dare to stand up against the "sarcoma monster", Pearl of the Northern Lands is undoubtedly one of them ... considering that he is not really in the true sense Ordinary people, Edith can even be said to be the only one.
Elicia really reacted, "Mortal, you --!"
Before she was completely angry, Pasha's voice was timely inserted with come in, "Maybe it is the giant skeletons that make the expansion of the red line more rapid, but it may also be that Devil has other purposes. -- can be opened if it is not for offense. Earlier, after all, its size depends on the supply of red mist. So you don't have to argue about this matter, it depends on the meaning of His Majesty The King. "
It is indeed the actual leader of Taqila survivor. Roland nodded secretly. This speech not only eliminated possible disputes, but also took into account his feelings. Speaking really is an art.
But the problem in reality still exists. -- No matter whether Devil had any attempt or wanted to attack Neverwinter City at an early date, this change made him lose surveillance of the ruins of Holy City. For the Neverwinter City, there are actually not many countermeasures to choose from: if the phantom instrument has not been positioned incorrectly, he may be able to observe for a while to see what the Devil has in mind, but now he must eliminate the current one obstacle.
"Get First Army ready for the expedition," Roland took a deep breath and turned to Iron Axe and instructed.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The answer of Sandpeople is always neat and clean.
"Courageous choice," Elicia praised, "covering your eyes when war is tantamount to suicide, we must always grasp the enemy's movements in order to be prepared."
"Adviser Department, come up with at least one plan before the sun sets tomorrow," he took a special look at Edith, "I want to see the detailed process deduction."
"Your Majesty," the dawning Knight Ferlin Schilt, which has officially changed its career, is embarrassed. "According to the information of Miss Silvie, flying Dread Beast has occupied that area. There is almost no way to ensure that First Army will not be found during the march. Once expose, We're afraid it will be too difficult. "
Roland also knows this, so I want to get a detailed deduction -- as the designer of the army weapon before set off. He naturally knows that Ferlin's statement is sufficiently euphemistic. If the anti-aircraft machine gun cannot be set up and aimed in advance, its effect will be greatly reduced. At the same time, unlike the defensive battle of the city wall, the enemy may come from all directions, which increases the requirements of the barrage by several levels.
In addition, the track is not built under the situation, which means that the entire logistics needs to be completed by both legs. If the heavy team encounters an Dread Beast volley, the loss will never be a small amount.
The distance from Neverwinter to the enemy's suspected outpost is almost 400 kilometers, minus the part that crosses Hidden Forest, and there are 100 7-8 and 10 kilometers, which can never be completed in a day. Not only do they have to camp halfway, there are more than one, but they will all be expose in the eyes of flying devil, becoming the army's fatal weakness.
He doesn't have so many Silvie to ensure that each heavy team can avoid the attack of Devil; the logistic team usually composed of recruits can play tenaciously after encountering the enemy's sneak attack, and the Roland does not report much hope. If the logistics line collapses, let alone let it go, First Army may not even be able to retreat.
But the more this time, the less he can show hesitation, "make a plan first, I will talk about other things after I have read!"
"As you bid, Your Majesty." Ferlin stroked the chest.
...
A day and night passed quickly, and the Adviser Department handed the plan over the next afternoon.
More than two.
The presenter is Edith Kant.
"You haven't slept?" Roland noticed that her eyes were slightly puffy.
"Everyone is in a hurry, how can I be so sorry to go back to rest alone," Edith shrugged, "it's as if I had made atonement for my last mistake."
Is this a nuance? Roland waved his hand indifferently, "You can say the conclusion directly."
"Yes," she pointed to the copy on the left of the desk. "If the normal marching method is adopted, the main army will be noticed by Dread Beast. The extent to which they can do it depends on the commander's ability. Due to the lack of In this regard, Adviser Department directly assumes the worst situation, and concludes that First Army can achieve its purpose, but it will also be defeated by Devil. A force of 5,000 people can probably escape back about half. The danger of witch is not great, As long as you are safe, you should be able to return. "
"This deduction is really harsh," Roland rubbed his forehead, "Is there a logistical problem?"
"Yes," Edith said without hesitation. "The supply route was attacked by Devil, First Army had to divide its troops to protect it, but it was impossible to completely contain the enemy. Morale will continue after daily casualties. Frustrated and affected frontline confidence. After a week, the enemy ’s attack will become more elusive, and the main army will start attacking the enemy ’s camp. This part can be said to be the simplest link in the battle, and your army goes smoothly The Devil outpost was destroyed, but a fire broke out in the rear.
"Neverwinter City?"
“No, it ’s really a big fire. -- Devil noticed the abnormal performance of Hidden Forest and decided to set fire to the forest. This will make the safe passage constructed by Miss Leaf no longer exist, and if the transportation route is tripled, First Army will be completely lost Resupply, and thus lost the firepower advantage to the enemy, so they could only choose to break through and retreat. "Edith coughed twice." Of course, we may set the number of Devil a little bit, but this is also uncertain, so urgent from the other side Judging from their actions, they may not easily abandon the outpost. "
Roland couldn't help laughing, "Just as many enemies, which **** raised the idea of setting fires to the forest?"
"His Excellency Morning Light." Edith said slowly, "But after our analysis, as long as the time is drawn long enough, Devil will find that the probability of Hidden Forest having problems will increase, so this possibility cannot be ruled out.
Although Roland has been prepared for a long time, I still feel a little depressed when I see such a pessimistic deduction for the first time, "What about the second one? Do n’t tell me the same result. -- You have been busy all night, just want to tell me No? "
However, he also knows that if Fertile Plain and Devil are to compete, land transportation will sooner or later face the problem. If he could easily send ammunition and food to the frontline soldiers, why would he build a railway overtime?
"No, Your Majesty," Pearl of the Northern Lands laughed lightly at this time, "The second plan is indeed different. Since we cannot guarantee the security of the supply line, let it disappear completely."
