Chapter Ninety-Two: Counteroffensive Plan
Who will be able to retake Fort Clarifle?
Limburg!
While everyone was thinking about who was most likely to retake Fort Clarifolia, they all thought of the group that had shone in this battle, the Limburg Legion.
The Limburg Legion may be shining this time because they picked up a bargain, but this bargain was obtained by the Limburgers by virtue of their own ability, after all, if the opportunity is there, you still have to have the strength to win, and there is no doubt that this time the Limburg Legion has shown its strength.
In particular, the shock of the endless steel torrent stunned everyone, even the southern realm, can not have such a large-scale steel legion, and even many people privately asked Lelouch if he could sell some steel armor, the nobles were not only surprised by Lelouxiu's generosity, but also, that is, the high combat effectiveness of the Limburg legion, dare to fight with Mordor, and can withstand the double attack of the trolls and the great shaman, this kind of combat power nobles have not seen for a long time.
As if feeling the eyes of the nobles, Lelouch smiled slightly, and everything was going according to plan.
Indeed, Lelouch had already begun to plan the development after the Battle of White City as early as when he formulated the Battle of White City, once the Battle of White City was won, then he would be able to quickly carry out follow-up plans, once he won Lelouch would undoubtedly become a thorn in Mordor's side, and Mordor would definitely find a way to destroy Limburg before attacking White City next time, so no matter what, the Terrans must continue to fight with Mordor, and the battlefield is not in White City, let alone in Limburg, so think about it, Lelouch drew his attention to Hornfort.
As long as he can defeat Elon in the White City, then the Horn Fort must be empty, and he will definitely be able to win in one fell swoop by taking advantage of the situation to attack the Horn Fort at this time, so that he can successfully push the battle line outside Limburg, and he can further expand his reputation among the people, think about it, a person who has rescued the White City in a short period of time and liberated the Horn Fort will gain a strong reputation among the people?
In the eyes of ordinary nobles, these prestiges may be just some simple glory, but in Lelouch's eyes, they are supreme power, so even if the nobles don't look at themselves, they will find a way to get this task, but in the first battle, they need assistance from the rear, otherwise it will be too difficult for 10,000 people to go to the Horn Fort and quickly clean up the entire Horn Fort.
As almost everyone's eyes focused on Lelouxiu, Lelouch stood up with a resolute and heroic face:
"I'll go!"
Just two words, won the favor of all the nobles, win, everyone is happy, lose, Lelouch family is unlucky, or everyone is happy.
"Okay, since that's the case, then please Count Luluxiu, come, let's do something for Lord Luluxiu!"
As if he was afraid that Lelouch would regret it, Decres raised his glass directly, and the old nobles also raised their glasses with ghosts, but the young nobles were deeply impressed by Lelouch and raised their glasses sincerely, and even many people were ready to come down and ask Lelouch if they needed their own help, free of charge.
Such a dispatch may seem hasty, but it was a plan that Lelouch had planned for a long time, and although the Vulture Duke did not intend to give Lelouch any substantial support at all, it did not hinder Lelouch's plan.
When the news came out that Lelouch would lead the counterattack on Fort Horn, Baicheng was silent again, under the propaganda of the church, the crowd seemed to see a great lord who had no hesitation in order to block the war for the people, at this moment, even if Lelouch failed, I believe that he would still be loved and appreciated by the residents of Baicheng, because in the eyes of the residents of Baicheng, Fort Clarion was impossible to contribute, at least, it was impossible to rely on Lelouxiu's 10,000 people.
In fact, Lelouch is also gambling, betting on an opportunity, that is, there is no large-scale defender in Fort Clarrum, if Lelouch can complete this combat mission, then Lelouch will really completely harvest the hearts of the people of the entire God-given land, and can ensure the safety of Limburg, and more importantly, Lelouch very much agrees with De Crees's point of view, that is, the Terrans can no longer support a few battles like the Battle of the White City.
If you can't put the battlefield on the Horn Fort, which is more powerful for the Terrans, then the Terrans will definitely not be able to hold it for long, so no matter what, you must take the Horn Fort yourself.
After the vulture duke chose to temporarily support Lelouch's decision, Lelouch immediately returned to the barracks outside the city, the barracks had already been prepared, from the army's preparations, Lelouch had made up his mind to attack Fort Clarifolia, even if the White City did not agree, Lelouch would still choose to attack.
At this time, the flag was fluttering, the 10,000-strong Limburg regiment was neatly arranged, and the dead soldiers had been replenished from the reserves prepared in the rear.
The team was solemn and silent, only the high head showed the most direct battle spirit in their hearts, Lelouch was very satisfied with his own troops, as long as he could take them to another victory, then Limburg would have the most precious period of development, and these veterans who had experienced the battle would also become the basis for the expansion of the army, although the blind expansion of the army with the current situation in Limburg would have a great impact on the economy, but Lelouch had no other way, Lelouch could feel that the next time Mordor's army, It's going to be the deadliest, but if you can't hold on to it, then it's really all over.
So Lelouch is ready for a sharp expansion of the army, and these veterans, is the basis of the expansion of the army, the team is speechless, as Lelouch waved his hand, almost no words, the army began to pull out in an orderly manner, the uniform armor, sophisticated weapons, high morale, all show what a powerful army this is.
This time, the march of Limburg was no longer as nameless as before, the news of Lelouch's imminent attack on Fort Clarion had been spread all over the city, and a large number of residents of the White City flocked to it, hoping to send off the Limburg army, and even many refugees who fled from the north packed their bags and prepared to follow behind Limburg and go home by the way.
For these refugees Lelouch did not stop, in fact, these refugees are the most pitiful, they may not believe that Lelouch can recapture Fort Horn, but they absolutely can't leave their home, maybe in a year the army of Mordor will come back, but maybe this time, they will not be so unlucky, maybe the army of Mordor will not fight their idea?
In this way, with a large contingent of refugees, the Limburg Legion hit the road, and as the support promised by the nobles, 20,000 troops from the East and West Frontiers would be on the road in two days.
