Chapter 573: Lost Contact
"Captain, did you expect that?" Barbary said as he looked at the burnt town of Mortal Mouth in the distance, Renault had asked them to prepare combustibles yesterday.
"It's also lucky, I found that big mouse, as long as I found that big mouse, the rest of the matter will not be difficult, since Xiong Ark wants to get information so much, I'll send him some information, and then cooperate with him to perform a wave, so that he thinks it's okay to kill me." Since he can't finish thinking about Fankou Town, now he burns Fankou Town with him, which can be regarded as worthy of him. Renault's voice didn't fluctuate much, but he still answered patiently.
Lao Tie swallowed and said: "My lord, I think that most of the team has finished collecting people, but is it necessary for us to do this, although we killed the enemy, now we have also lost our base." ”
An Luoluo said quite clearly: "Fankou Town is in the north of Pompeitu City, the current situation is completely exposed to the orc army, as long as the orc army is willing, Fankou Town will basically be taken, although we have tried to strengthen the defense of Fankou Town, but do you think that defense can stop the orc army? It is difficult, unless there are reinforcements, but who will be reinforced?" Originally, we wanted to rely on Pompeito City to give some reinforcements, but now that Pompeii City still wants us to transfer manpower to defend Pompeii City, how can Fankou Town defend it? Instead of falling into the hands of the orcs, it is worth the money to use it to help us eliminate a team of orcs. ”
Barbary scratched his head and said, "The vice-captain is indeed right, it is indeed difficult to defend, but what about Pompeito City? I heard that reinforcements were sent from above, why haven't they arrived yet?"
Ngawang sneered and said, "Reinforcements? When we came, we heard that we were going to send more men to Pompeii, but until now we have only heard about it, and we don't know that reinforcements will arrive that year and month." ”
Renault also sighed and said: "Although the empire seems to have a large number of troops, the battle situation is complicated, the battle front is vast, and there are even millions of people fighting or confronting in a few places, although Pompeito City is in a dangerous location, but the orcs do not exert too many troops on this side, so correspondingly, it is impossible for our side to send too many troops, reinforcements are definitely available, but our priority is ranked behind." ”
Lao Tie is not stupid, knowing that Renault doesn't want to take the soldiers under his command to fight the orcs, and there is always nothing wrong with caring for his own soldiers, but they have to consider the current situation, Lao Tie said: "Then captain, what should we do now? Rush to Pompeito City overnight?" I see that the orc army has not yet opened its stance, the battle line has not yet been fully formed, and with the containment of other troops, although it is a bit risky for us to return to Pompeito City, it is not impossible, and Pompeii City also needs people now, didn't the wing captain also give us an order to go back?"
Renault chuckled and said: "Lao Tie, you are not wrong in this idea, but our team, plus the logistics farmers are only about a thousand people, can we help Pompeitu City relieve the siege when we go back? At most, it is just to extend the defense time, and the fundamental problem is still not solved, besides, we have just lost the town of Fankou, no matter how small the mosquito legs are, what will the other teams think of us? Say that we are afraid of war? So it is really not a wise move to go back." ”
Even Ngawang was a little puzzled by this, and Ngawang said, "Then what should I do? Is it possible to go directly to fight the orc army head-on? I have no problem, but I am afraid that the soldiers will suffer heavy casualties in this way." ”
Renault glanced at Awang and said: "Didn't I say it, Lao Hei, can you think about this aspect so much? Originally, I didn't plan to lose Fankou Town, thinking that after defeating Xiong Ak, I would find an opportunity to cut off the food and grass of the orc army, we have a detailed enough map, so many roads, even if you look for them one by one, you can cut off some orc food and grass, and the orcs are also considered expeditions, and the lack of food and grass will definitely bring some relief to the battle line, but now, Luo Luo has to thank you." ”
An Luo Luo said inexplicably: "Thank me, thank me for what?"
Renault smiled: "Your methods are really powerful enough, the irrelevant things related to the little mouse have been recruited, and they can really be of great use, since we have lost the town of Fankou, then let's take back a bigger city." ”
After speaking, Renault didn't care about the puzzled eyes of others, turned around, and behind him was the neat and solemn 6921 Brigade, all of the soldiers had calm but cold faces, they were the swords in the darkness, the long song of the sleepers, and the reefs of the low-grade orcs.
Renault glanced at the soldiers, waved his hand, and said, "Are you ready? ”
The others were puzzled, but An Luoluo understood a little, looked at Renault, and couldn't help but have some admiration in his eyes, this is talent, right? Renault couldn't have imagined that he would be so comfortable on the battlefield in the eighth layer, right?
......
In Pompeii, Bobirr was holding a battle report, reading it carefully, and when he finished reading the battle report, his eyelids couldn't help but jump a little, and finally he couldn't help but slam his fist on the table, looking like he was choking with anger.
Barre, who was beside you, couldn't help but be curious when he saw Bobir's anger like this, and hurriedly asked, "Captain, what's wrong?"
Bobirr looked so angry that he didn't want to speak, but he said, "Can you see for yourself?"
Barre was not polite, he was also an old partner with Bobir, picked up the battle report and glanced at it a few times, and immediately frowned, and said, "What is this doing?
Bobier snorted coldly and said: "I don't know how they did it, now that Pang Town and Betu Town have fallen, every remaining town can play a role in containing the orc army, especially in the northeast of Fankou Town, located in the rear of the enemy army, more or less able to contain one or two thousand enemy troops, now it's good, this Renault will get the Fankou Town silently? ”
Barre said: "Captain, they still wiped out an orc army, about a thousand people, and the battle is not small." ”
Popier said: "I know, they are doing well in this regard, but they can't let this lead to the destruction of Fankou Town, don't they know the importance of Fankou Town? To be honest, I can't figure out how Fankou Town started the fire, whether it was the orcs or the fire in the middle of the battle...... Or simply they set the fire themselves. ”
Barre smiled: "I see that the Wing Captain you are also confused, that is their base, condensed a lot of their efforts, if you were you, I will set fire to my hometown? Let's not talk about the fire, Wing Captain, what about the people of the 6921 Brigade now? No matter what, the town of Fankou is burned down, they have nowhere to go, how to return to Pompeii City, it can be regarded as adding strength to Pompeii City, then it will be easier for us to defend Pompeii City, you know, those people ......"
Bobirr naturally understood that Barre was talking about the strength of Renault's people, in addition to the strength of the troops and ordnance on the battlefield, the strength of the strong is also very important, and if Renault and they came to Pompeito City, it would also be a big help. It's just that before Bobir could speak, an officer below said in a cold voice: "I think most of those dolls have not participated in large-scale battles, and now they see the orc army attacking, abandon the city and flee." ”
Bobier frowned and glanced at the general, but he didn't say anything, such things didn't happen without happening, it happened in the area under his jurisdiction, after all, not everyone has the courage to fight to the death with the orcs, when did the deserters not go? just ran away with a large group of men and horses? This is a bit exaggerated no matter how you look at it, not to mention that Bobier has contacted Renault a few times, it seems that Renault doesn't look like such a person?
Barre sighed and said: "We don't know what the situation is, now that the orcs have almost surrounded Pompeito City, we can't get out, we can only wait for news, if you have the opportunity, send some more sentry out to investigate, hoping to find their news." ”
"Strategist, you are more kind-hearted, why can't you think about the bad side? I admit that they did fight well in a few battles, but you should not forget, those people were directly sent down from above, and it is said that they were also sent down by high-ranking people, I am afraid that their status is not low, and the eighth layer is some nobles, do you remember? When they first arrived, how arrogant was that arrogance? They don't even take us seriously, these nobles, they all have a problem, they are arrogant on weekdays, and when they are really in danger, they will be cowardly, I admit that they are strong, but strength is not the only criterion, right?
As soon as this officer spoke, the following ten or twenty officers all discussed, and many officers agreed with this official's point of view, after all, Renault didn't give them any good fruit to eat when they first came, and humiliated them fiercely, people are not sages, for Renault and a few people, they will only think in the bad way, and naturally think that Renault is a nobleman, and most of the nobles are also that virtuous.
Seeing that the discussion was a little out of control, Barre gave Bobirr a look, Bobier nodded, sighed and said, "Okay, you all don't quarrel, isn't it good to discuss our colleagues like this without any basis?"
The officers below saw Bobir's speech, and then they quieted down, and then Bobier routinely discussed with the officers a wave of strategies against the orc army, as usual, there was still no strategy that was too good, and after determining a few details, the meeting was dispersed, and the army was pressed into the territory, and they were pressed in the city again, there were really few effective methods.
When the other officers were gone, Pobier asked Barre, "I said, Barre, what do you think about this, to be honest, I don't really believe that Renault will escape, but I really can't guess what they want to do? What are they doing now? We don't even know their whereabouts, they are fine, they don't even send a messenger." ”
Barre was also a little helpless: "I don't believe it either, although Captain Renault is young, but the several battles he commanded have shown that he is a talent, at least stronger than many of our men, this time he eliminated a team of orcs, although he lost the town of Fankou, but it is also considered to be worth the credit, and no one will do anything with him when he comes back, I don't understand." ”
Pobier smiled bitterly: "Barre, I'll tell you the truth, Renault, I estimate that sooner or later I will fly out, I'm afraid it will be difficult to control such a talent, take this time as an example, a few days earlier I ordered him to send someone over to help defend Pompeito City, he is good, not even a fart, I don't think he takes me as the wing captain so seriously." ”
Barre laughed and said, "I know you, Bobir, your desire to take his people back is false, your purpose is just to test Renault's mind, even if he only brings back a dozen people, you will feel a lot more at ease, who doesn't want to have a capable and obedient subordinate?"
Bobir shook his head and said: "As far as you know me, you and I are not outsiders, I will also tell you directly, this Renault really ignores me, the other captains are at least respectful, and they also report to me from time to time The situation in various places, only Fankou Town, since he went there, I almost got dark about Fankou Town, and I don't know anything very well." ”
Barre smiled meaningfully: "Old Bobir, then I'll tell you the truth, he and we are not at the same level, since the first time I saw him, I understood that he is not something we can control, including the black boy who came with him, the beautiful cat man, all, you also know what I used to do, these people, I'm afraid it's much more complicated than we imagined." ”
Bobir smiled bitterly: "Hey, at the time I thought that the top finally took a few useful pictures for me, but now it seems that ...... Either way, it's good to be able to fend off the orcs, so let's hope they're okay. ”
Barre patted Bobirle and said, "That's how good you are, never reluctantly, don't worry, maybe they can surprise us." ”
