Heart of Empire Chapter 87: Eastern Expedition Plan


It was getting late, and it was almost time for dinner in the White Wolf Castle shrouded in darkness.

On the steeple in the center of the fortress, there is still a little candle light, which is that Dane and Moreno are discussing the plan to attack the east.

"...I worked out a plan of action with a few of my subordinates who were a little bit smarter. Beast Blood Fort was established as Schindler for a hundred or two hundred years, and it was a place to resist the attack of the Eastern Orc tribe. The first and strongest line of defense, its location is quite good. Not far from the north is the remnant of the Central Mountain Range. Although it is not high, the terrain is relatively bad and difficult. Some single-person and small-group travel It may be possible to pass through there, but the army will definitely not be able to pass through—even if the army can pass, the logistics will definitely not be able to pass through. It is not a good place to march. To the south, tens of kilometers away, is the vast ocean. Orcs will not choose to come by boat Those who fight us, with their technical capabilities, can only build some small sampans at most. Even all the warlords of Schindler do not have any powerful navy, but that is only relatively speaking. Sending those who dare to go to the sea It’s not a big problem if the orcs come up to feed the fish.”

"So, historically, the orcs invaded westward, and the only place they could go was this section of plain south of the end of the central mountain range and north of the sea. And on this plain, which is only more than 100 kilometers wide, beast blood The fortress stands in it. The so-called Beast Blood Fortress is not a single fortress, but a group of fortresses composed of three large triangular fortresses and some strongholds. There is no way for a castle to hold more than 100 kilometers It is a wide plain, but if it is a group of fortresses, it will not be so easy for the army of orcs to easily step into the hinterland of Schindler."

"Governor Ozer has more than 15,000 soldiers. Moreover, according to Schindler's tradition, all warlords—including Lost City—must send part of the necessary troops to the Governor Ozer unconditionally obeys orders. Because it is the common interest of all Schindelaires to guard the east and prevent the army of orcs from invading, and Governor Ozer cannot bear it alone."

"Right now, in the Beast Blood Fortress, there are at least 20,000 Schindlers fighting to the death with those orc bandits. Among them, the most vicious one is undoubtedly the most important beast Below the Blood Castle, and the Three Iron Forts nailed to the front—Iron Fist Castle, Iron Spear Castle, and Iron Armor Castle.”

"And our plan is to act stealthily, so that the scouts of the orcs cannot find us. For this, I need the help of mercenaries. You are more suitable for this kind of team combat mode, and I need some masters to guide you." Leading an elite team with a tacit understanding, we quickly strangled the orc scout troops, and delayed the time for those orcs to find us as long as possible. Then, we quickly defeated the orcs there from the south of Bernier Town along the sea , can’t be held back. After quickly breaking through the enemy’s formation, we entered the mighty eastern wasteland, and the sky is so big that we can fly.”

After listening to Morneau's plan, Dane had to express his admiration: "Brother Morneo, you are really courageous."

Morno laughed and said, "Sure enough! As long as we go according to my plan, after we penetrate the defense line of those orc troops, we basically don't have to worry about the following things. I don't believe it, the group of orcs The white wolf cavalry who can catch up to me in the wasteland!"

Obviously, Morno didn't understand the irony in Dane's words. He thought that Dane was praising him with the comment of 'bold'.

To be honest, Dane is not optimistic about this plan. He thought for a while and decided to be blunt: "Your method is unreliable. I know that after arriving in the Eastern Wasteland, no matter whether it is our mercenaries or your army, as long as we are careful, we will not Fear of being caught by the orcs. But have you ever thought about how difficult it is to penetrate the defense line of the orc army?"

Without waiting for Morno to answer, Dane continued: "According to your plan, we have two difficulties in piercing through the orc army. As long as we move our troops, we will inevitably hit the steel iron plate. There is still risk if we are not prepared, let alone the enemy is prepared?"

"That's why I said, we must deal with those orc scouts, and they cannot be discovered in advance!"

Dane shook his head and said, "I don't like it. I know that your white wolf cavalry is a rare elite. I also know that mercenaries are very suitable for small teams, and they are very good at ambush and strangling those scouts." But, have you ever thought that the 20,000 orc army has been blocked under the defense line of Beast Blood Fortress for nearly half a year. You also said that although their main force is still dragged there, they will continue to Infiltrate towards the hinterland of the west, and send small troops to plunder resources. What if we bump into a plundering team? No matter how small a plundering team is, there are at least two or three hundred people, and most of them are highly mobile teams. It’s hard to catch without a trace. After being discovered by others, we must be 100% sure to leave all the orc predators behind? I don’t have that much hope.”

Morno's complexion has become a little bit wrong. He is a person who holds a lot of power and is extremely powerful. It is a bit embarrassing to be refuted by Dane once or twice. But he was still enduring, staring at Dane in front of him without saying a word. ,

Of course Dane saw his look ~IndoMTL.com~ but he didn't bother at all. He cleared his throat and continued: "Besides, apart from this issue, we still need to face the second difficulty, that is, how to rush over when we reach the orc front? Add mercenaries, add yourself Our army, our strength is more than 3,000. Besides, I am afraid that you will not be able to bring your army out, right? How many people should be left to guard the hometown? According to my calculations, our total strength can Two thousand people is considered pretty good.

"However, there are 20,000 to 30,000 orc troops in the Beast Blood Castle area! Even if the main force is under the Beast Blood Castle and the Three Iron Fortress, there must be many people who can be assigned to the surrounding areas of other forts. It doesn’t take much, as long as there are a thousand orcs in front of us, we will definitely be dragged into the quagmire of battle. Afterwards, we will face the impact of endless orcs!”

Moore said unwillingly: "If you are lucky..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Dane very rudely: "Luck? Morno, Morno, you have been in Schindler for so long, and you have fought big and small battles. How many times, you should understand that war is not a child's play, right? Now, you actually tell me that winning a war depends on luck?" He shook his head and continued: "If you hang the word luck If it is on the lips, please forgive me for not being able to accompany you."

Morno stood up from his seat, and said with anger on his face: "This is not okay, that's not okay, okay, okay, then what do you think should be done? Ah? Besides this, what else can we do! "

Dane looked at Morno, who was a little out of control, with indifference on his face~IndoMTL.com~Welcome all readers to visit and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all here~IndoMTL.com~Mobile users please to read.
