Heart of Empire Chapter 345: Strike

"Hmm..." Dane pondered, "So, do you think the defenders of Iron Spike Hill will take advantage of this time to attack us?"

"Yes.【】" Gnar's nervousness showed no signs of easing.

"Go on," Dane said.

Gnar only felt that the aura of his lord was getting stronger day by day.

But he knew that this was the first time he had expressed some of his opinions in front of Dane, and he thought it was very important for this war. Moreover, it was a matter of his future, and he couldn't let his cowardice ruin it all.

He continued to talk about his analysis:

"Before the war, I collected some rumors about Dempsey. This is not a young veteran. He was also a soldier in the past. He gradually climbed up to the position of general in battle after battle. There are already people in the battlefield. The old Dempsey has experienced many battles for many years and acted steadily. It is said that Governor Conley was dissatisfied with the radical strategy of the former iron nail hill warlord Gusha, so he sent a stable person to guard the city .”

"But Dempsey should not be a tactically conservative person, let alone a coward. I have referred to some of his previous battle examples, his fighting style... how should I put it, he looks like an experienced old wolf, although not as good as Qing A ferocious beast in its prime is so violent and tough, but it has considerable patience and will constantly test the enemy. Once it catches a weak point, this old wolf will definitely be fiercer than anyone else!"

Hearing this, Dane straightened his posture, facing his adjutant, touched his nose, and said: "Your statement is very interesting, continue to talk about it."

After being encouraged, Gnar became more courageous. He said: "I think that Dempsey's current attack on our troops near the edge of the city wall is a kind of temptation. If we continue to deal with the enemy on our own by the various teams below, we will definitely be able to easily repel Dempsey's attack." One attack, but the status quo of fighting separately and temporarily lacking a unified command and unified combat target will inevitably be caught by the enemy. At that time, he will probably launch a more violent attack on us, and at that time, Whether we can survive the opponent's offensive is a question mark."

"Let me predict more boldly." Gnar cleared his throat, his nervousness had been completely lost, and he looked more confident: "Dempsey's next more violent offensive may not be It is a full-scale attack——in that case, his strength will be somewhat stretched, and the pressure on a single area will hardly cause our elite troops to collapse. It is more likely that he will choose to organize a strong force with a large number Not too many, but it will definitely form an overwhelming advantage over our team on the local battlefield. If you don't move, it will definitely fall like a thunder, forming a tactical breakthrough from a single point, so as to quickly cut Our formation. In this way, we will become very passive tactically, the losses will not be small, and we may even be driven out of the city under the enemy's crazy offensive!"

After Gnar finished speaking, he felt happier than ever. He looked at Dane and Patience expectantly, hoping to be praised.

"Scaremongering! Nonsense!"

Dyne didn't speak, but Patience next to him scolded furiously.

Gnar was dumbfounded by the scolding. He felt that there was nothing wrong with what he said just now. Although this was some guesswork, according to the situation on the battlefield, combined with Dempsey's military habits and personality, Nar Er felt that his analysis should be inseparable. He didn't know why Patience was so angry and scolded him so harshly.

Gnar looked at Dane for help, and saw that he also had a cold look on his face, which seemed to be similar to the attitude of the commander of the Patience Legion, but because of his status, it was not easy to swear directly, as if just now The encouraging eyes and expression on his face were just Gnar's own illusion.

He squeezed his fist, but he only felt that his palm was cold.

"Major Gnar, I hope you can think clearly about what you are talking about before you speak, and be prepared to be responsible for every word you say. This kind of irresponsible words like nonsense , I don't want to hear it from my adjutant's mouth a second time. I don't want a fourth person besides the three in our house to hear such disturbing words. I suggest you go out Afterwards, immediately forget about our conversation.”

Dane's voice, in his ears, was colder than the coldest winter wind he felt. Looking at Dane's disappointed expression, he felt as if his head had been blown dumb by the winter wind, and his ears were buzzing.

But he still understood Dane's order. He originally wanted to fight, but when he opened his mouth, he found that his lips were already too tight, and all the words were choked in his chest and could not be uttered.

He raised his hand reluctantly, gave a military salute, then turned and left. When he opened the door to leave, he staggered and almost fell to the ground.

"No... I'm sorry..." He apologized, his voice was as low as a mosquito's cry ~IndoMTL.com~ Without daring to look back, he stepped across the threshold, then turned around and closed the door gently. When closing the door, he kept his head down, not daring to look at Dane at all.

After doing all this, Gnar felt that all the strength in his body was taken away instantly. He was so weak that he almost collapsed in front of the door, his eyes were red and swollen from the discomfort, as if tears were about to flow out.

But he still has some military awareness. He tried his best to control his body, stood straighter than ever, and controlled the expression on his face very well, but his eyes were a little red, but he couldn't hide it no matter what.

A team of guards passed in front of him, and the captain of the guards was quite familiar with Gnar, the new lieutenant of the lord. He didn't notice Gnar's reddish eyes, he greeted as usual, and then asked casually: "Hey, Gnar, how are you? When are we going to continue marching and beat up those **** northerners?" People's shares?"

Usually, Gnar would reply with a smile and cursing, but today he didn't at all. He just stared at the captain of the guard with a serious face, without saying a word.

The captain of the guard was stared at a little furiously by him. He was on patrol and couldn't ask any more questions, so he could only lead the soldiers away, leaving Gnar standing at the door like a stone sculpture, motionless. (To be continued.)
