The battle cluster, which decided to implement the breakout plan yesterday, has been making all kinds of preparations for the breakout, and there is no need for Bai Feng to go back to make any preparations; what's more, today the battle cluster is stationed in the fortress, and the officers and men of all armies are carrying out the task of defending the fortress and the city wall.

In fact, the implicit meaning of the Marquis of Rundstead's words just now was that he agreed to let the city defense army participate in the breakout plan, which meant that Bai Feng's 80,000 breakthrough army would become 160,000, and the possibility of a successful breakthrough had been greatly improved.

There are pros and cons to everything, and this matter is no exception; the addition of the city defense army to the breakout army not only means that the number of the breakout army is doubled, but also means that the number of defenders defending the fortress is reduced by 80,000, which is very unfavorable for the breakout.

Once the battle for the breakout begins, the orc armies will surely frantically surround the Imperial army trying to break out, and take the opportunity to launch a fierce assault on the weakened fortress, and the defenders inside the fortress will bear tremendous defensive pressure.

How long the 35,000 soldiers of the Fire Legion can hold out under the fierce attack of the orc army is an unknown that makes Bai Feng feel uneasy, and what Bai Feng needs is that before the breakout army breaks out of the encirclement, the defenders must hold the fortress without losing!

Otherwise, if the fortress was captured by the orc army, the breakout army would be in danger of being caught in the front and rear of the orc army, which was an absolutely unbearable risk for Bai Feng, who was almost desperate.

As soon as he thought of this, Bai Feng decided to make appropriate adjustments to the breakout plan; the pro-soldier guards were still divided into two to act as the vanguard and rearguard of the breakout army, and the task of the special operations wing and the assault wing was still to open the passage, and the main force of the breakout could not be organized according to the original plan.

Of the four armies, the Predator Guard, the Reserve Force, the 39th Army Corps, and the 40th Army Corps, the Reserve Force and the 40th Army Corps will be drawn from the main force of the breakout, and the Iron Guard, the 39th Army Corps, and the 60,000 City Defense Army will form a new main army.

The remaining reserve troops, the 40th Army Corps, and 20,000 city defense troops formed a defensive army, which was responsible for shouldering the heavy responsibility of defending the fortress when the main army broke through, and this arrangement was fair to both the battle group and the city defense army.

Just when Bai Feng was thinking about breaking through the formation of various armies, the three generals Giannou, D'Ambrosio, and Bella came to Bai Feng's military tent with a new order from the Marquis of Rundstead;

Just while the three main generals of the city defense army, such as Giannu, D'Ambrosio, and Bella, were there, Bai Feng informed them in detail of his revised breakthrough plan; in fact, the three generals who had become Bai Feng's subordinates did not have the slightest opinion on Bai Feng's fair arrangement.

As a result, the new breakthrough plan was finalized, and the 80,000 city defense troops were also divided into three armies by Bai Feng; the first army and the second army were divided into 30,000 troops each, which were commanded by General D'Ambrosio and General Bella, respectively, and were incorporated into the main army to participate in the breakthrough.

The Third Army of the City Defense Army consisted of 20,000 soldiers of the City Defense Army, commanded by General Giannou, and incorporated into the defensive army to stay in the fortress, so that the defending army, including the infantry units of the Pro-Guards, had more than 50,000 soldiers.

After determining the combat organization of the breakout army and the tasks of each army, the three generals Giannou, D'Ambrosio, and Bella just wanted to return to their respective camps to reorganize their armies, and a personal soldier from the Marquis of Rundstead came to Bai Feng's military tent and conveyed a new order to Bai Feng.

"General Bai Feng, the Marquis asked me to inform you that General Bernard's Flame Legion will also participate in the breakout, I hope you can arrange it in advance. ”

"yes, I see. Bai Feng, who did not show a look of surprise, replied to the personal soldier: "You go back and tell the Marquis that as long as the Fire Legion is willing to participate in the breakthrough, I will definitely treat them equally and will not deliberately embarrass them." ”

"No!" After receiving a reply, the soldiers bowed down and withdrew from the military tent.

"General, why did the Marquis let that old boy of Bernard break through with us?" Bella, who was also in the military tent, was not as well-educated as D'Ambrosio, and as soon as his soldiers left, he shouted in a dissatisfied tone.

"General Bella, the Marquis can't do this, we can't break through with all our armies, just leave the Fire Legion behind, no matter how unpopular Bernard is, the soldiers of the Fire Legion are our robes, and we can't leave them behind. ”

"But ......" Bella wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by D'Ambrosio on the side: "General, it's nothing to break through with the Fire Legion, the problem is that they want to disobey orders when they break through and act without authorization to disrupt our plans?"

"In order to ensure that the armies act as planned, I will ask the Marquis to come forward to form a special battle supervision force, if any army dares to act without authorization, the war supervision team will immediately behead its main general and take over the command of the army!"

"General, if there is no general who is strong enough to intimidate the generals to command the main army, I am afraid that even if there is a supervising team, it will be useless; after all, the main generals of an army have their own personal guard troops, and it is not easy for the supervising team to kill the main general of an army in battle!"

"A general who is enough to intimidate the generals?" D'Ambrosio's words made a lot of sense, and Bai Feng had to admit that what he said was the truth, but who could be competent for this general who was enough to intimidate the generals?

"General, our city defense army only obeys the orders of you and the Marquis, except for you, how can anyone else be qualified to let us obey willingly?!" Facing Bai Feng's hesitation, Giannu said the key.

"Since you've all said so, I'll go and ask the Marquis to take charge of the main army. ”

"General, why don't you take charge of the main army yourself? The breakout plan was formulated and implemented by you, and it is undoubtedly most appropriate for you to be the supreme commander; even if Bernard is dissatisfied, he will not be able to stir up any storms. ”

Bai Feng, who was surprised by Giannu's excessive enthusiasm, joked with a smile: "General Giannu, you are one of the five iron-blooded tiger generals under the command of the Marquis, why did you consider it from my perspective today, it wouldn't be the Marquis who asked you to deliberately curry favor with me, right?"

"General, you have wronged me! The reason why I think you are more suitable than the Marquis to be the commander of the main army is because your prestige in the Fire Legion is far greater than that of the Marquis, and if the Marquis is the commander, I am afraid that the soldiers of the Fire Legion will not obey the orders in peace. ”

"Yes, General!" said Giannu, "Although you are at odds with that old boy of Bernard, many of the soldiers of the Fire Legion have been favored by you and Mr. Huamu, and if you intervene, the Fire Legion will obey orders." ”

"This ......" Bai Feng, who originally planned to personally lead the defensive army to stay in the fortress, was persuaded by Giannou and D'Ambrosio, and also sensed that the main army with the Fire Legion joining was not so easy to command, and it seemed that he himself was indeed the most suitable person.

"In this case, I will discuss this matter with the Marquis tonight, you go back first and distribute the soldiers under your command, and by tomorrow morning at the latest, the city defense army will be formally integrated into the battle cluster, and the main army and the defense army will also be formally divided. ”

"No!" The three generals of the city defense army, whose identities had changed, responded in unison.
