Chapter 483: Dividing the Troops
Although the Fran army had begun to retreat, Curry's anger was still unsubsided, and he pursued him for a while, until the Juggernaut in the rear of the Fran army arrived, and Curry returned to Berman City.
At the head of the city of Boman, Curry took on a human form and landed in front of Lidong.
"What's going on?" Li Dong asked with a frown looking at Curry's miserable condition and being alone.
Curry hated the future and told the ins and outs one by one, and the anger in his heart soared into the sky, but seeing that Dong frowned, he gritted his teeth and did not protect the dragon clan, so he had to swallow his anger, bury his grievances in his heart, and bowed his head and said: "I hope Your Highness will forgive your sins." ”
Li Dong looked at Curry coldly, but his tone was calm: "It's not your fault in this matter, I'm afraid that this time it was premeditated by the Fran army, maybe the Fran army has already hit the dragon clan with the idea after entering Berman City." ”
Niu Tianfeng shook his head and said: "I'm afraid that the other party's premeditation is still before that, when they give up Guilei City and hide the army in the dense forest, they have a plan to separate the dragon clan from the army, and then set up an ambush to lure the dragon clan into the urn and annihilate it, so that our army's advantage will be eliminated, and we will no longer be able to resist the army of the Fran Empire." ”
Li Dong also felt that Niu Tianfeng was reasonable, although he still let the Fran army's strategy take advantage of it, but this day's battle also caused the Fran army to suffer heavy losses, but in general, it was the Tobia Empire that suffered greater losses.
Because most of the buildings in the city had been damaged during the fighting, Tobias had to set up a makeshift camp in relatively intact premises.
The group entered the candle-lit handsome camp, sat down in turn, and said to Niu Tianfeng: "General Niu, now that the dragon soldiers are almost all wiped out, what should we do next?"
Niu Tianfeng frowned and thought for a moment, and said: "As far as I know, there are thousands of dragons distributed to the three armies, and there are still hundreds of them in each army, and this time there are only hundreds of dragons designed and framed by the Fran army, so it seems that there is still a hundred dragons on the front line of the Fran Empire!"
"That's true, however, the territory of the Fran Empire is vast, and the legions we entered the Fran Empire are advancing in three lines, each line has 300,000 troops, 100 dragons, and the rest of the empire is also the same, but now, my line of dragons is completely lost, and I am afraid that there are not many soldiers left, I am afraid that when the Fran army takes a breath and attacks me together, I am afraid that there will be no resistance. Li Dong said worriedly.
Niu Tianfeng thought for a while and said: "In my opinion, it is better to divide 150,000 soldiers and 50 dragons from the other two lines, of which 50,000 soldiers and 25 dragons will stay with you, so that there are nearly 200,000 soldiers here and 50 dragons. ”
Li Dong frowned, if it was really according to Niu Tianfeng's words, then it would be unlikely that they would want to advance to the front again, and even, if the Fran army gathered a million troops, then they still had the possibility of being defeated, after all, the Fran army seemed to be powerful
A space circle capable of inflicting massive damage on dragons.
Niu Tianfeng saw that Li Dong was a little hesitant, so he continued: "His Royal Highness the Prince, if we don't send troops to resist the beast army going south, then even if we resist the attack of the Three Kingdoms, it is meaningless, therefore, we must send soldiers to block the beast army outside the Royal Beast Pass, only by eliminating the threat of the orcs, we can resist the three ** teams wholeheartedly." ”
Of course, this truth is clear to Dong, but he is a little unwilling to let him call his soldiers to Niu Tianfeng like this.
After thinking about it for a long time, he had to sigh helplessly in his heart, only afraid that hundreds of thousands of soldiers would lend out, and he might not obey him in the future.
"In this way, it depends on General Niu's idea. Li Dong nodded, and said to the other generals: "Tomorrow, send people to the other two lines to convey General Niu's words, and let them send soldiers to Berman City." ”
The generals commanded.
At this moment, a soldier came into the account to report, saying that there were two people outside the city of Berman, claiming to be friends of the national teacher, saying that they had something important to find General Niu.
"Do you have a registration number!" asked Li Dong with a frown.
"One of them was named Crow, and the other claimed to be the son of the Duke of Ollinon and was named Bray. The messenger replied.
Li Dong and Niu Tianfeng heard that it was Crow and Bray who had arrived, so they hurriedly asked the soldiers to invite the two of them.
After a while, the two entered the handsome tent, and when they saw Li Dong sitting tall, the two of them hurriedly saluted and said, "I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
"Give me a seat!" Li Dong commanded the soldiers in the tent.
When the two sat down, Niu Tianfeng asked, "I heard that you are looking for me for something, I don't know what it is?"
"We're actually here to deliver the message. ”
It turned out that Crow and Bray completed the mercenary mission on the other side of the Bermonu Mountain, and the task was nothing more than picking a herb for refining magic potions, although it was a little troublesome to find, but because it was not a very rare herb, the task was quickly completed.
After the two of them found the mission item, the two decided to return, but before they could go down the Bermonu Mountain, they met a Tobias Empire soldier who was attacked by a demonic beast.
Although there are also demonic beasts in Bomonu Mountain, the level is generally not high, but even low-level demonic beasts are quite dangerous for soldiers who have no cultivation, no, this soldier of the Tobia Empire has already been put down by that demonic beast, covered in blood, and his breath is dying.
Fortunately, just as the monster was about to start a big meal, Crow and Bray appeared, and the two of them killed the monster that preyed on people without hesitation.
It's just when the two of them want to go and save the soldier
It was only when he took his last breath that he handed over a letter to Crow, and after reading the letter in the soldier's hand, the two hurried to the city of Berman.
After reading the letter handed to him by Crow, Li Dong handed the letter to Niu Tianfeng, and his actions like this show that Niu Tianfeng had been recognized by Li Dong in today's battle.
"Lin Lan City was attacked by a herd of beasts driven by the Holy Beast, and then occupied by the Fran army that had infiltrated the Empire. ”
When he saw the news, Niu Tianfeng immediately thought of the Earl Herris who wanted to take his life, if it wasn't for Crow and Bray who saved him, maybe he would have become a corpse.
"There seem to be only a few hundred people on the other side. Niu Tianfeng didn't know what the concept of a beast group attacking the city was, because he didn't know much about demonic beasts, he just saw the Fran army occupying Lin Lan City.
Li Dong nodded, but he didn't explain the attack on the city, because he understood that this was probably the idea of the Fran army.
"Lin Lan City's location is very important, if it is cut off by the Fran army, then we may lose the last supplies. Li Dong spoke out about the seriousness of the matter.
"I'm afraid that the other party will take a fancy to this point, so as to take Lin Lan City and force us to retreat. "Niu Tianfeng said.
"Well, now there is no food in the army, it is difficult to get by, and Lin Lancheng has been robbed again, but I am afraid that the last grain and grass will also be burned. "Leave Dong Dao.
Listening to Li Dong's words, Niu Tianfeng also fell into deep thought, now in the final analysis, the most important thing is the problem of grain and grass, as long as there is food in the army, then the hundreds of Fran troops who sneak into the rear are not to worry at all, but there is no food in the army, as long as there is a slight disturbance in the rear, it is likely to cause the soldiers to abscond on a large scale, but the soldiers have no intention of fighting, and the defeat has been locked.
"It would be nice if Xiao Yu could be contacted and asked Chen Dong to send food again. Niu Tianfeng is also a little difficult to deal with without food, his original meaning is, of course, to rely on self-sufficiency to barely support, and when Chen Ming sends grain for the second time, or a bumper harvest in the field, then everything will be fine.
It's just that now, even simple self-sufficiency may no longer be able to stabilize the morale of the army, after all, there are soldiers' families in the rear, and if the family is in danger, who can kill the enemy with peace of mind.
"I'm afraid that only His Majesty knows the method of contacting the national teacher. Li Dong's eyes changed.
Niu Tianfeng also didn't know if Emperor Pickett could really contact Xiao Yu, after all, they were in two worlds, and it might not be so easy to get in touch.
"Let's try anyway! While contacting the imperial capital, we will send people to clearly infiltrate the Fran army in the rear, and collect as much food as possible, as long as we can hold out until the food arrives, then there is still hope for everything. "Niu Tianfeng said.
