Chapter 0554: Heart Attack

Renard sighed when he heard this, there are many generals under him who can fight well, but it is extremely rare to be able to give advice.

This is also in line with the characteristics of Westerners, who are always willing to regard the number of soldiers and whether they are well-equipped or not as the most important factors in determining the outcome of a war.

As a pure Oriental, Lei Ye actually prefers to look at a war from a mental point of view.

To put it bluntly, Westerners are more strategic, while Easterners are more strategic.

This is the difference caused by the difference in social systems and ideologies, so when Lei Ye talks about these things with Alka, he is completely playing the piano to the cow.

So he gave up his intention to explain to the other party, and directly ordered: "Tomorrow you will bring people to distribute leaflets." ”

Alka couldn't help but be confused, this was the first time he had heard of this word.

Seeing this, Renard took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and there were a lot of words written on it, most of which slandered the Lord of Silver Thorn City, and then advertised that he was a righteous teacher.

In fact, it is not exactly slander, and most of the content in it is true.

Arka looked at it for a long time, and finally understood what Lei Ye was going to do: "You want to incite the residents of the city to riot?"

Lei Ye thought about it and felt that this statement was quite in line with what he was going to do next: "That's right, there is a good saying, fortresses are often the first to be breached from the inside. ”

Arka scratched his head, not remembering the source of the sentence.

Although he still felt that the method of fire attack was much simpler and more efficient than this, he still decided to faithfully carry out his young master's orders.

Before leaving, Arka suddenly turned his head and said to Lei Ye: "Young Master, in fact, there is no need to be so troublesome, I just need to take the griffin knight to rush into the city and open the city gate, and the army can drive straight in." ”

Renard: "......"

It turns out that the combat methods that Lei Ye saw in movies and TV series are not very practical in this world.

After the army besieged the city for three days, the griffin knights went out and broke through Yinjing City in less than half an hour, and the price paid was not as great as imagined, which may be the benefit of the diversification of troops.

Of course, Renard's heart-attacking policy is still somewhat useful.

He spread the news of the breach of Yinjing City throughout the surrounding towns, and within two days, several lords came to pay a visit, expressing their willingness to obey any will of His Majesty.

In this way, Lei Ye's soldiers regained several small cities without blood.

When King Ferdinand learned about this, he immediately adopted the same means of warfare, and the early gains were not small.

However, when attacking Red Maple Castle, which has a population of more than 20,000, the defenders actually took out ten dragon crossbows to defend against the enemy, which made the Sky Knights of Arthur's Kingdom suffer a big loss.

What is a dragon-striking crossbow? It is a giant city crossbow specially designed to deal with flying monsters, and it is rumored that this weapon can even defeat dragons.

Although there is no lack of exaggeration in it, it is still very effective against griffins.

Sixteen griffons died directly on the spot, dozens of griffons were injured, and the griffin knights suffered even more heavy losses, killing and injuring more than 80 people.

Even if the city was finally breached, the gains were really not proportional to the losses, and King Ferdinand almost vomited blood.

You don't have to think about it to know where these enchanted crossbows came from, the small Red Maple Fort can't master this expensive killing weapon, only the Creighton family and the Cronin family are qualified to have this kind of thing.

With the king's experience, Lei Ye no longer dared to let the Griffin Knights act rashly.

After all, this is the treasure at the bottom of his box, and the money and food needed to build a griffin knight are enough to feed an infantry battalion, how can it be wasted in such a place.

And with Alka's reminder, Lei Ye's combat ideas have also begun to change, and he is no longer confined to traditional combat methods, which is simply a strange move.

For example, let Arka directly climb over the wall to open the city gate, or directly carry out a decapitation operation.

Of course, this method is only suitable for smaller cities and small towns, and if you encounter a strong city, you still have to work hard.

The front line is fighting smoothly, and there are some chickens and dogs jumping in the rear.

The Black Cavalry attacked Lei Ye's transportation line several times in succession, causing considerable losses.

Fortunately, the other party did not take advantage of it, and lost nearly two hundred horses, and now less than four hundred horses are still coiling in the Ten Thousand Beasts Forest.

Reynard was helpless about it, and in the middle of the jungle, it was hard to find these hateful creatures.

Fortunately, he now occupies many cities, and he is barely self-sufficient in terms of supplies, and the other party's plan to cut off the supply of the army is in vain.

Today, more than a month after the war began, the king's army occupied 40% of the land in Kale County, and gradually advanced into the hinterland.

The banner is no longer about exterminating bandits and pacifying demons

disaster, but the Creighton family has a self-respecting army, and the king leads a large army to crusade.

As soon as the news broke, it shook the kingdom.

From the aristocratic squires to the common people, they all began to discuss this matter.

King Ferdinand made this public because the war had reached its most critical moment and could no longer be restrained.

Reynard looked at the crusade book in his hand and knew that his leisure time was almost over.

He stood up, looked at the blue sky outside the window, and gave an order: "Send an order to the other people, and the whole army will assemble in Yinjing City." ”

Many of the high-ranking officers sitting on the sofa got up one after another, and Tracy asked, "What about the 20,000 Kale County garrison under Earl Kevin?"

Hearing this, Renard thought for a moment and said, "Scatter, scatter to various towns to defend the city, and exchange all our men back." ”

The decisive battle is about to begin, and every ounce of strength is now extremely valuable.

Hearing this, Tracy frowned slightly, and asked again: "Earl Kevin is a wall-to-wall grass, aren't you afraid that he will take the opportunity to make trouble?"

Renard smiled, "Your Excellency Rolson will let him be honest." ”

Tracy knew he had the whole thing in place, and he didn't say anything more.

After discussing the specific battle plan, everyone went about their own business.

After everyone left, the office slowly quieted down, and only the sound of Lei Ye sipping tea was left.

However, this silence did not last long, and Robertson hurried through the door with extremely bad news: "Your Excellency, General Arka has been wounded. ”

Renard stood up directly when he heard this, and the tea in his mouth spit directly on the ground: "What's the matter?"

His first thought was that he didn't believe it, but no one would joke about it.

Robertson wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "I don't know, the person is in the field hospital right now." ”

Renard couldn't sit still, and walked directly to the door, asking as he went, "Is there a danger to your life?"

Rolson shook his head first, then nodded, and hesitated for a while before he said, "General Arka didn't suffer any external injuries, but he was in a semi-comatose state. ”

Renard paused, then continued toward the staircase.
