Tales of the Reincarnated Lord Chapter 278: Changing strategic deployment
Chapter 278 Changing Strategic Deployment
Joske and Yuri came back the next morning, both of them were embarrassed. No matter who was chased by the three Great Sword Masters all night and finally got out of the way, it would be such a gray face.
The order given to them by Lorist is to block the main road between slave Bit Port and Hamidas King City, so that the news of slave Bit Port's attack will not reach Hamidas King City. The afternoon before yesterday, they led the detention camp to reach the target, that is, the hilly area on the map. After selecting the camping site, they started to arrange the cordon. They also caught a few messengers to Hamidas King City, and everything was normal.
But after a day, Joske and Yuri found that there were a lot of carriage and cavalry on the avenue. At the beginning, they were able to block it. As a result, the number of enemies was increasing. Launched an attack on the temporary line of defense of the scout battalion.
Joske and Yuri believe that these enemies must have escaped from slave Bit Port. They are very angry and are prepared to stop all these enemies and not let one escape. The scout camp then occupied the highlands on both sides and blocked the middle avenue.
The blocked enemies rushed twice without rushing in. The casualties were heavy and the ground was full of dead bodies. In the end, the enemy gathered all the combat power and attacked the highlands on both sides in two ways, and let the fleeing carriage gather to cross the middle road. The scout camp could not help but lose sight of each other, and soon fell into a scuffle.
Joske and Yuri were followed by three Great Sword Masters. The Joske's arrow may be a threat to Level 1 Great Sword Master, but there is no room for the upper level Great Sword Master. One of the three Great Sword Masters is a secondary Great Sword Master, chasing Joske stubbornly. If it wasn't for Yuri's desperate rescue, Joske might be in danger. The two were forced to leave the brigade, wandering all night in the hilly area and the three Great Sword Master, until the three Great Sword Master of Tianming did not retreat.
While Joske and Yuri gathered the scout camp, they discovered that there were nearly a thousand casualties. This is still the enemy just looking for ways to get rid of the scout battalion soldier(s) on both sides of the highland, even if there is not much entanglement. Joske and Yuri saw that both of them were exhausted like the soldier(s) in the scout camp, so they stopped chasing and brought the troops back.
Lorist has misery. Joske made the same mistake as the enemy, treating the enemy as a wild dog fleeing the desert. They thought that adding a stick would kill them, so they made a decision to intercept. . If they let go of the middle avenue and only followed on the sides and behind, and used the long-range crossbow shots of the scout battalion and the flexibility and speed of the cavalry to effectively kill the enemy, the result would be much larger than the current 8,000 corpses ...
After waving Joske and Yuri to rest, Lorist's face became serious. This time the Hanayabarta kingdom expedition was not as smooth as I thought. The battle of national extermination was not so easy. Slaves Bit Port's enemies were indeed vulnerable, but accidents happened again and again.
The fleeing enemies left nearly 8,000 corpses when they broke through the interception camp, but at least 15,000 or more fled back to Hamidas King City. Among them, there was no lack of high-end combat power such as Gold Swordsman Great Sword Master. Hamidas King City also has a 28,000 royal guard Legion. If the fleeing slaves and the young King City are recruited, a Legion of 30,000 to 40,000 can be formed. It overwhelmed my side.
Lorist calculates the strength at hand. The two Heavy Armor Corps and one single Ballista corps are full of 55,000 battalions. But he left two heavy armored barracks and a single round Ballista barracks at Silowas Islands. There were also 36,000 people following their own expeditions. Together with a scout camp and a Thunderbolt Catapult Battalion, there are 142,000 battalions in total. Coupled with one thousand of their two Imperial Guard brigade and 3,000 of Simba Wood's Legion at sea, the total strength is about 46,000.
But Simba Wood's Legion at sea does not need landing to fight, unless you don't want to return to the family Territory. After landing, there were nearly 5,000 casualties. Now the available force is about 38,000. Simba Wood was given a heavy armored barracks and a single round of Ballista battalions to sweep the islands around. Six thousand people were gone, and there were plans to leave a hundred-strong heavy armored squadron defense on each of the 27 islands. A battalion. In addition, two heavy armored barracks and a single-wheeled Ballista barracks must be left in the inner city of Nubit. In this way, only 20,000 people who can qualify for Hamidas King City ...
Lorist wants to cry without tears. When the soldiers are in use, there is less hatred. The 20,000 people go to Hamidas King City. Let alone siege, it is not bad to not be siege. If you are King of Hanayabarta kingdom, you must be ruthless to gather up the young and strong slaves of King City. There are 50,000 to 60,000 who can coerce them to impact their 20,000 people ’s camp. After using up the long-range attack weapons such as bolt, they can swarm up. The siege was carried out, so that even if they were unsuccessful, they would be able to fight both defeats, not only to relieve the crisis of King City, but also to counterattack slave Bit Port.
No, you have to readjust your strength. You must have at least one complete Heavy Armor Corps and three single-wheeled Ballista barracks as the main force to join the Hanayabarta kingdom, plus your own 1,000 Imperial Guard, two thousand scout light cavalry, and one Thunderbolt Catapult Battalion. There were 29,000 troops with nearly 30,000 troops. When the expedition was carried out, five newly formed slave police battalions were to be brought in. By then, more than 40,000 troops should be sufficient.
Well, Lorist sighed for a long time. War is not a child's play, and the strength is not simple addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. In any case, the enemy is lenient, and the more elite family armed forces in his hand is, the better, so that not only can he win against the enemy but also reduce troop casualties. As for the newly formed slave guard camps, Lorist does not want to bring untrained slaves to the battlefield, but it is a double-edged sword. Although it can strengthen its own momentum, the outbreak of the war may be the slaves. They will bring chaos and even impact the family armed forces array.
For Hanayabarta kingdom, it is very simple to intimidate the slaves. If they are not obedient, they will use swords and guns. If they kill more, they will obey the orders naturally. But Lorist can't do it this way. Norton Family claims to come to rescue the slaves. You can't force the slaves or even the guns to oppose each other.
A serious strategic mistake has such serious consequences. If the enemies of the inner city of Nubit are swept away by a net and there is no fish leaking, then their own family armed forces can unexpectedly appear under Hamidas King City. Even if they cannot attack, they can be caught by surprise and block the enemy in the city. At that time, the plains around King City became the site of their own family armed forces, and they could mobilize those slaves to reinforce the family armed forces and siege Hamidas King City slowly to clear up.
It's time to get ready for the field, Hanayabarta kingdom King Definitely will send troops, so many people can run out of the inner city of Nubit Norton Family landing There are not many soldiers. No one is a fool. Hanayabarta kingdom Will call soldier(s) Build Legion Send troops to test and try to send Norton Family armed forces Hurry to the sea.
Imperial Guard was invited, and Lorist gave the order to send several families Golden Knight and Engelich Great Sword Master to the city's main palace in the evening to hold a meeting to discuss new strategic tactics.
In the evening, the main hall of the inner city is brightly lit.
Lorist points to the map of Hanayabarta archipelago to describe the situation currently facing.
Potterfang asked: "Lord(s), do you mean that our already cannot directly send troops to attack Hamidas King City?"
"Borg, if you were King of Hanayabarta kingdom, what would you do after getting the Reported of those who escaped from slave Bit Port?" Lorist asked back.
Potterfang thought for a moment: "I will send troops immediately, first occupy this hilly area in the middle, set up barracks and defensive positions, prevent the enemy from entering the plain where King City is located, and then send out scouts to check the enemy ’s strength and real strength. Layout, on the other hand, recruit soldier(s) to form troops, if the enemy's strength is insufficient, they will send troops directly to recover the slave Bit Port, and drive the enemy to the sea.
"Yes, Borg, your response is perfect. We don't know if the enemy will do like you, but we must make the enemy smarter and not care more. Tomorrow morning, already will be organized Three heavy armored battalions and two single-wheeled Ballista battalions must head to this hilly area, where they will first set up defensive fronts and seize the main traffic routes into the King City plain.
This unit is under the command of Fierce Tiger Ross and Malek is under the command. Borg was injured, so he took the slave Bit Port. Joske, Yuri, now there are more than 2,000 light riders in the scout battalion. In addition to alerting and detecting the enemy ’s movements, they also need to guard Ross Malek's back road to prevent the enemy from sending small-scale scout teams to detect and destroy us. In addition, you have to send troops to rid the slave farms on the King City plains, liberate the slaves, and try to mess up the enemy's rear. Don't let the enemy easily gather the grain and supplies to King City to prepare for a long-term war with us, understand? "
Lorist hit the map with a punch.
"I see, Lord(s)." Joske and Yuri answered in unison.
"You must pay attention to save your living strength, do not fight with the enemy. Our advantage is that we are light cavalry, can easily shake off the enemy's tracking. Hanayabarta kingdom does not produce horses, it is said that King is a thousand The cavalry team of 800 people, compared with our family cavalry, they are still infants and young children, if they have the opportunity, they will eat them.
In addition, if you disturb the King City plains, the enemy will hate you and may send you to chase your enemies and existence of Great Sword Master. You can let Fierce Tiger Ross and Marek set a trap in advance and take the enemy Introduce them, use Ballista to deal with them. Don't let your brains get hot like you did yesterday with scouts and cavalry. "Lorist warned.
"Yes, Lord(s), we will pay attention." Joske and Yuri both turned red.
"Borg, you have a heavy task with the Bit Port. The family armed forces has a total of eight heavy armored battalions, but now there are almost one battalion, there are a thousand scouts and two single-wheeled Ballista brigades. There are 5,000 people in total. Now I already ordered Simba Wood to temporarily stop sweeping the islands and concentrate the forces first. When he sends the troops back, you will reorganize two heavy armor barracks and a single round Ballista The barracks were sent to the front line Fierce Tiger Ross. In addition, the Thunderbolt Catapult Battalion of Orville Keith was ordered to go with them, which would be our main force for the Hamidas King City.
All the wounded are concentrated in the inner city. The inner city is temporarily defended by a heavy armored barracks and a one-round Ballista team. I leave a team of five hundred Imperial Guard to you, and another team's Imperial Guard is also sent to the front. In this way, there is still a heavy armored barracks. I plan to dissolve them. All soldier(s) will serve as grass-roots non-commissioned officers in the newly formed ten slave battalions.
I will give you five days. After the ten slave guard camps are set up, you will send five slave guard camps to the front line to assist the defense of the main forces and conduct field training to make them as effective as possible. You have two Simba Woods for the remaining five police battalions, plus the remaining one-round Ballista brigade to let him continue to sweep those islands. There are also three police battalions responsible for logistics, resupply, and security guards at the rear. .
We have occupied the slave Bit Port. The supplies, grain, equipment, and equipment reserves here are sufficient. At present, we do not need to worry about the shortage of logistics and resupply. These ten slave guards set up all the required equipment and can be disbursed from the seized equipment. They will be the reserve force of the family armed forces we expeditions and will no longer have a relationship with the slave camp.
So we must be careful when selecting soldiers. Their treatment will be the same as that of our regular family armed forces. Their families can live in the inner city, take care of our wounded, and do chores for us, all of which have corresponding compensation. . do you understand? "
Potterfang nodded: "Lord(s), I understand, I will let them reconcile as soon as possible, so that they can be proud of being an Norton Family soldier(s). However, Lord(s) recruited these ten slave guards from the slave camp Who will maintain the order there after the camp? Today, already has nearly 230,000 slaves.
"I already ordered Hiked and Kaimen who are in charge of the slave camp affairs to cooperate fully with your actions. After recruiting these ten slave guard camps, they will continue to select suitable candidates to form a defensive team. The islands of China have a defense team of one hundred to three hundred people. Two slave camps will also be set up in the slave camps. The remaining slaves will set up fishing fleets, harvesting teams, transport teams, and so on. There is something to do, instead of staying idle in the camp ...
By the way, Joske, Yuri, you will go to a slave camp tomorrow before departure. Kaimen will arrange a team of slaves for you. They are very familiar with the King City plain. They know where the slave farms are. Many slaves, having them as your guide will make it easier for the slaves there to believe that we are going to rescue them. "
"Okay, Lord(s)." Joske replied.
"Engelich, you also set out with Fierce Tiger Ross and sit on the front line of the town. Basic arrangements are all there, do you have any other opinions?" Lorist asked.
Engelich stood up: "Lord(s), we delayed the expedition of Hamidas King City. According to your arrangement, this war may last for a period of time. Hanayabarta kingdom should know why we are here, then they will Will not take revenge on those families Knight(s) and soldier(s) that our family fell into their hands? "
Well, the old man is still worried about the safety of his baby granddaughter Charade, but this is inevitable and human.
Lorist replied with a smile: "This afternoon I got good news. Imperial Guard, who went to clean up the battlefield and reprimanded the camp, reported to me that the old man who had seen my messenger died on the road. So tonight I I ’m going to leave with Tarkel overnight, go to Hamidas King City, and try to rescue the family Knight(s) and soldier(s) of the arena.
If Hanayabarta kingdom sends troops, the more you hit them in the hilly area, the longer the confrontation, the safer my operation will be. In addition, you should also take it easy, you can't beat the opponent too hard to let them retract and come back to a cage city to defend themselves, trapped us in King City and suffered. If you occasionally show that you ca n’t keep up, give up some of the irrelevant defensive positions, and let the enemy think that you can win by working harder. "
Everyone laughed, Joske said, "Lord(s), or should I go to King City with you?"
Lorist laughed: "You can't, maybe the three Great Sword Masters still remember you, and they were discovered as soon as they showed up. Don't tell anyone, don't want to go with me, and a strange Golden Rank Swordsman suddenly appeared It is doubtful. The enemy is not really a fool. I and the Tarkel will do it. Just like that, you will be busy tomorrow and you will perform your duties. Do n’t let me down. "
"Yes, Lord(s)."
