Chapter 70: The Scheme Begins (I)
Early the next morning, General Luca quickly put his troops in order and was ready to march at any time.
Looking at the canyon in front of him, General Luca suddenly became a little uneasy.
"Have you inspected all the valleys on all sides?" asked General Luca, to the lieutenant beside him.
"Uh... Not yet... These days, we have been collecting food in the surrounding towns, and we really don't have enough people. ", the adjutant next to him said nervously.
"Look at the steep terrain of this canyon, and the fact that this is the only way to get to the Talmug Fortress, this is the best place to ambush us. ”
Luca thought for a moment and said lightly.
"No, where is the army in the Ernne Empire to ambush us now?", the adjutant beside him said with some incomprehension.
"Just in case! I've been on the march for so many years, and I've never taken unnecessary risks, and the whole army has stopped marching and waited for orders!", Lukka said unquestioningly.
Immediately, the army was settled again, and even prepared to fully explore the terrain on both sides of the canyon before making preparations.
At this moment, General Elier saw that the Livian army, which had just been ready to be deployed, was stationed again, which confused him.
"There are a few cautious people in the damned Livia army. It didn't take long for Eliel to understand what was going on.
It must be that someone in the Livia army saw the danger of this canyon, and judging by this situation, the other party did not plan to open it in a short time.
"General, what are we going to do. ", asked one of the generals beside Elaire.
"Don't panic, wait and see!", General Elier said lightly.
So many years of combat experience made him understand. The ambush has to be like a cheetah. Calm your breath when you are ambushed, and be lightning fast when you attack.
"General, there is a Livian army coming in the direction of the Talmug fortress, what should we do?", at this moment a soldier came to report.
After hearing the news, General Elier hurried to a high ground with a good view, and looked at a Livian cavalry that was approaching in the distance.
Judging by the size of this team, it does not exceed 5,000 people, and it should not be the main force of the other party.
Seeing this, General Elier's hanging heart finally sank. After some thought, General Elier began to get excited.
"Hahaha, God help me!", General Elier suddenly began to laugh.
Prince Icks sent a squad that was not even the main force to come over obviously not to cooperate with General Luca in encircling Elaire, so there was only one possibility.
They had been sent by Icks to urge Luca's troops, and Lukka couldn't find any excuse to excuse himself at this time, after all, everyone was at the gate of the camp!
Today, he Luca just doesn't want to go, he has to go!
"Hide, let them go!", General Elier quickly passed the order.
At the same time, he ordered the generals at all levels to strictly restrain their soldiers, and at this time, the slightest misfire would be the burning of General Elier's long-standing plan.
Soon, the Livian army passed through General Elier's encirclement line without any danger, and passed through the gorge without danger under the watchful eyes of many Erne soldiers.
After the army passed, such a team was also seen in the Livia military camp in the distance. Although the flag of Livia was raised from afar on the other side, General Luca was still on standby.
In this era of war, it is too common to pretend to be the opponent's army, and we have to be cautious!
When the cavalry was a few hundred meters from the camp, it was stopped by the outposts on the outskirts of the barracks.
"Where did you come from? Can you prove that the troops?" and after a series of fatal questions, it can be seen that General Luca marched and fought cautiously and managed the army strictly.
"Are you blind or what's wrong, can't you see that this is the banner of the King of Livia?, we are a subordinate of Prince Ix, and you dare to stop it?", the person who came was obviously very dissatisfied with the interrogation in General Duluka's camp, and asked arrogantly.
"Wait a minute, I'll go and ask General Luka. The sentry was relieved when he saw that the person who came was so flamboyant and did not look like a fake. Said in a low voice.
"Get out of here!", and after seeing the soldiers' confession, the Hebrew commander became even more arrogant.
Don't look at him as a small commander, but he is the person next to Prince Ix, and he came to beat Lucca according to the prince's order.
It didn't take long for General Lukka to arrive at the outpost with a group of generals.
From the soldier's description, Lukka was sure that the person who came was Ix's men, after all, this kind of arrogance could not be pretended, so he immediately brought his officers to meet him.
He didn't want to leave a story on Prince Ix's side!
"General Luca is just such a big deal, when the prince's army is not eligible to enter your barracks, then another day!", seeing General Luca and his party with a smiling face, the Hebrew yin and yang mocked.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that General Luka's expression stiffened significantly after hearing this, and then he regained his smile and hurriedly agreed.
"Where, where, my subordinates are ignorant and collide with you, I'm really sorry, I really don't have any offense. ”
Then, feeling that something was missing, he turned to the soldiers at the outpost and yelled.
"Blind your dogs, can't you see such a big banner clearly!", he said, and did not forget to lead the Hebrew group inside.
This tricky Hebrew didn't know what to say for a while, and he finally caught a trace of Luca's omission, and he wanted to make a big fuss.
As soon as Lukka stirred up like this, Hebrew couldn't find anything wrong with it at once, so he had to take one step at a time.
"General Luca, I won't be too polite to you today, let's get straight to the point!", Hebrew said directly as soon as he came to the tent.
"That's, you say. Despite the fact that his heart was very uneasy at the moment, Luca said calmly.
"This time, I have come to inform you on the orders of Prince Icks to leave for the Talmug fortress immediately. There was something unmistakable in the Hebrew tone.
"But we haven't explored the canyon in front of us, so it's too unsafe to march in such a hurry!", Luca said carefully after suppressing the dissatisfaction in his heart again.
"Excuse, our team has just passed through the canyon, where is the ambush you are talking about, don't give me alarmism here, immediately carry out the order!"
Without listening to General Luka's arguments, Heber turned and departed, as if to immediately reorganize his army and leave.
Looking at Hebrew's distant back, Lukka slammed his fist on the conference table.
"Hmph, mediocrity misleads the country, now Prince Icks is surrounded by such smugglers, and the future of the Livia Empire is worrying!", at this moment, General Luca's heart seemed to be blocked by something, an indescribable taste.
