Chapter 304: Persuasion
Hearing the speech of the self-proclaimed general, Griffith glanced at the other party in surprise. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 I heard that the strategic and tactical vision of the military strategy of the countries of the Hill Mountains is excellent, and the first discovery is based on the secret book of the art of war that has been circulated from the distant and mysterious East. Therefore, whenever a general speaks, the richer he is in poetry and books, the more he likes to hang his book bag in an oriental tone.
When the battle-hardened middle-aged general said this, he secretly glanced at Prince Anta's face again, and seeing that the latter was expressionless, he quickly turned his head again: "Look at the terrain of Braun City, we have been surrounded on three sides. The infantry of the Sakura Kingdom is distributed in the southeast and southwest directions, and the cavalry and heavy armor are here and here...... If I am the general of the other side, gritting my teeth and abandoning a thousand cavalry to charge into battle, the army is forced to force the front, supplemented by the magic power that is good at controlling the wind and using poison, at most two weeks, the city of Braun will be captured-"
Didias was completely overwhelmed by what he said, she was not a military professional, and she did not have a lot of experience, so she had nothing to say at this time.
But Didias, who had been acting lord for a year, did have feelings for the city of Porun. The wolf-hearted Griffith is not rare in this bitter place, and he is rare in Dias.
Her Royal Highness the Fifth Princess twisted her face and turned her head to glance at Griffith, who had been silent from beginning to end, and the other party felt Her Royal Highness's gaze and anger, and shrugged her shoulders innocently. Then Her Royal Highness the Fifth Princess felt particularly indignant and aggrieved because of this. This girl is guarding the door for you, why are you so calm, the old lady has to work hard to achieve this level.
Fortunately, Liang Qiuzhi, who has always had a gentle personality and did not have many edges and corners, watched the atmosphere cool down, and finally stood up and spoke.
This handsome young man, who even had a little baby face, didn't have much sense of existence before, and everyone was only the personal guard of Her Royal Highness the Fifth Princess.
It was only at this time that he opened his mouth to speak, and everyone listened to his words, and the three words and two words went straight to the point, and everyone suddenly realized that this guy was ...... It's not ordinary.
"What the general said is not unreasonable. According to the map, it was indeed a matter of time before the city of Braun fell. According to the general, it would take only two weeks for the enemy's 4th Division to capture the city of Braun, which I think is pertinent in the absence of accidents.
Moreover, Her Royal Highness the Fifth Princess came to report the information, and if she wanted to come and go, it would take a few days. The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and perhaps the city of Braun has already suffered an accident. He slowly pressed his hand on the table, raised his head, and Her Royal Highness the Princess, who was not far from him, bit her lip tightly: "But it is not appropriate to abandon Kaesong."
The enemy is obviously surrounded by three and lacks one, but he is afraid that our beast will still fight. If our army steals the battle, really obeys the will of the other party, and flees out of the city, as soon as the army of the Sakura Kingdom arrives, it will be cut down and killed by our great officers and soldiers...... At that time, the soldiers and civilians of Bolang City, who were defeated like a mountain, would not be able to fight back at all, and could only be slaughtered.
The enemy can also choose a directional expulsion tactic to drive the panicked soldiers and civilians to the next one of our castles. When the time comes, the enemy's army will follow the panicked people and Chen soldiers in front of our city, the general trend has been achieved, and the soldiers will come to the city, will the generals who defend the city open the city gate to save people, or let their own soldiers and civilians be cut down by the enemy?! ”
Prince Anta's face finally had a hint of countenance, he frowned, and looked slightly in the direction of Griffith. The other party also looked up at him and smiled.
"Yes, go on."
"The Sakura Kingdom's invasion this time is by no means a thought of the day and night, it must have done a lot of war accumulation. But under such thorough preparations, they crossed hundreds of miles, and it took nearly a month to break through the imperial defense line and attack the city of Braun -- you have all led troops all year round, and I will not talk about the reason that the three wars have declined, and now the army that has invaded Braun cannot be generalized with the one more than a month ago -- its vigor has been lost.
The art of war is cloudy, and after one blow, and then declines, the Fourth Division looks menacing, and it is a tiger in the mountains, but in fact it has lost its will. Coupled with the battle with Braun City, although the city of Faeron was broken, the fatigue of the long-fought soldiers and the decline in morale were inevitable. ”
"And, according to what has been said before, the Empire uses a tactic of keeping the enemy out of the country, and we will not discuss the feasibility of such a tactic for the time being. The tactic of defending the enemy outside the country will inevitably put heavy troops on the national border defense line.
The Sakura Kingdom is lone and deeper, it was originally a surprise attack, if it has not been successful for a long time, when the imperial army reacts and returns to the cage, it will inevitably suffer heavy losses......" The young voice paused here, and his fingers subconsciously pinched. The eyes of everyone in the conference room converged.
"Under the advantages of one another, I believe that the commander of the legion before Chen Bing in Bolang City is now under a lot of pressure...... The general was also really good, breaking through the heavily displayed defensive line, and forcing the city of Braun to the precipice with a thousand-mile rush...... But so what, you need to know that even on the top of his own head, there is also a blade hanging. ”
Captain Kwon Jichi's words were sonorous, he glanced around, slapped the table violently, and then stretched out three fingers and looked back at everyone one by one: "Three weeks......"
"If we succeed in holding the city of Braun for three weeks, the enemy will surely collapse without a fight. If, on the other hand, we abandon the city of Braun and let them go straight in, the result will be ......."
Liang Qiuzhi's words were quite pertinent and rigorous, even if everyone was not impressed at the moment, they still subconsciously felt that there was some truth in what this little white face said.
Captain Liang Qiu's intellectual brigade has studied for a master's degree at the military academy in the imperial capital, and he is especially good at small-scale battles. In a big battle like this now, when the Sakura Kingdom has fought with all its might, although there is no practical experience, there is still vision.
Prince Anta thought for a moment, and then returned to his usual appearance of a warm old man. He raised his head with a smile and tapped his palm lightly on the tabletop.
"Earl Griffith, what is your opinion?"
As a lord whose territory was facing the fall of the kingdom, Griffith did not choose to defend it more than everyone expected. Territory is as important as life to any lord, and it is easy not to let go - a lord who loses his territory can only be regarded as a declining nobleman.
Now that Princess Didias's envoy, that is, the rumored great alchemist with an unlimited future, has already nodded his head. In the case of Prince Anta's intention and mud, where are the soldiers and ruffians here who have long been refined, still have people standing up to show off their old faces and not please.
The strategy of holding on to the city of Braun and the subsequent reinforcement of troops was finalized one by one in the later meeting, but most of them were directional things on the general scale, and if they really had to be implemented in detail, they needed Griffith and his party to go to the city of Braun in person to discuss the specific situation in the city.
In general, as Griffith's new boss, Prince Anta is ready to send troops to support.
Although the matter of sending troops has been decided, how to send troops and how to send troops has become another difficult problem.
Now the front on Prince Anta's side is also tense, there are indeed not many available soldiers and battleable leaders, and almost every resource has been used.
Griffith didn't know these things very well when he first arrived, but there was no need for His Excellency to lie about such a trivial matter that could be broken at the slightest poke. And Her Royal Highness the Fifth Princess will return to Braun City later, he just doesn't care about the safety of Griffith and his party, and Her Royal Highness the Fifth Princess, the pearl in the palm of the prince's hand, still has to be scrupulous.
In order to send a team to the past, His Royal Highness the Prince frowned and weighed left and right for a long time.
Griffith thought about it, probably thinking that the old prince was indeed in a dilemma, so he said that this reinforcement team could not need to command generals, but only need to send soldiers with a certain military literacy.
His Royal Highness the Prince really frowned a lot when he heard this, there are not too many practical generals with experience and combat quality on their side, and most of them are responsible for it, which can be described as a radish and a pit. And this is probably because of the after-effects of the Empire's years of peace.
No generals, just soldiers with military literacy......
"Father, I see that the enemy is surging, and our army is stretched, so it may be inappropriate to rashly transfer soldiers to help defend Bolang City.
But we still have a team that has the power to fight, and now it is idle, which is a pity. It is better to let him accompany the Earl of Griffith to assist in the defense of Bolang City, so as to do his due duty. ”
At this time, it was a man's duck-like voice that spoke rashly, and the timbre still carried the chaotic sound of transformation from immaturity to maturity. Griffith squinted his eyes and found that it was His Royal Highness Beyers, the younger brother of Princess Didias, who had grown a little taller that year.
At this time, this little yellow hair, I haven't seen him for a long time, the contours of his face have hardened a little, and there is also a little epitome of Prince Anta's resolute and resolute bearing in his expression, which is a talent.
When Griffith looked at him, His Royal Highness the future Prince was pointing in the direction of his tent with a serious face. There was a guard of His Highness Beyers, dressed in white armor, roaming the land.
"Xiao Liu's personal guards, the number is barely enough. However, ......, this team has only just been formed after Xiao Qi awakened, and it has only been seven months since it was completed, and it has not experienced a decent battle. Griffith, you see......"
The current situation did not allow the Great Demon to have too many options, and he looked at the figure moving in that direction, and saw a soldier grinning and hooking the shoulders of another in the golden bright sunlight and talking. He also smiled: "If you dare not obey your fate, then ...... So be it. ”
His Royal Highness the Prince, who received a positive reply from Griffith, said a few words to the herald beside him, and the other party saluted a military salute, and turned around and walked to the direction of His Royal Highness Beyers's main formation, obviously to announce the news of his imminent departure to His Royal Highness Beyers's pro-army.
His Royal Highness the future Prince Beyers also walked there without saying a word, and he was like a little adult at this time, which was of great use.
Prince Anta turned his face and saw that Didias's face was still worried, and after thinking about it, it was not advisable to be too long before going to war, and he was worried that his youngest daughter would be overwhelmed by the predicament in front of him, so he continued to speak: "Although Xiaoliu's guard army has only been formed for a short time, it has not tasted blood on the whole. But many of the members in it are carefully selected veterans, don't worry, nothing can go wrong. ”
When Prince Anta said this, Her Royal Highness the Fifth Princess had no choice but to smile reluctantly.
Everyone chatted for a while, and when Beyers's personal guards were assembled, the logistics side provided the necessary equipment and protective gear. Griffith and the others couldn't wait to return to the city of Braun. After all, soldiers are fast.
……
In the northern part of the Kafir Empire, where the mountains and fields meet......
Braun City.
The sky was overcast, and dark clouds spread across the four corners of the dilapidated city.
For the rest of the day, the thin, old city will be under a heavy rainstorm and a terrible siege that will not distinguish between friend and foe in the torrential rain......
