Chapter 2 Strategy
The cruelty of war is incomprehensible to ordinary people!
Although we can say that we are overwhelmed, there will still be comrades who will continue to fall!
The comrades-in-arms who were still drinking together yesterday were torn apart by the claws of the undead today!
Although every member of the Blue Dragon Knights is a ten-minded existence, they are all living people after all!
And as long as it is a human being, if it is killed, it will die!
Looking at the map, we have advanced half the way, and the casualties in the process of advancing are already close to 1,000!
In the words of the soldier of the Blue Dragon Knights who was often with me.
"Since Lord Leon founded the Blue Dragon Knights, the total number of soldiers we have lost is less than a thousand!"
When I heard this, I had nothing to think of but guilt!
At another time, I really wanted to single-handedly go to Joan of Arc and wake her up, but I couldn't do that from that point of view!
Because Joan of Arc is no longer alone! Behind her are tens of thousands of undead legions, and no matter how quickly my spiritual power recovers, I can't fight against an entire army on my own!
After receiving the grain and grass escorted by the iron-faced parent, we continued on the road!
According to Wang Tuo's report, there were about 30,000 undead legions hoarded in the canyon ahead!
It's a number we've never encountered before, and Leon wanted to avoid it, but if we take a detour, we'll have to go around two mountains in a row, and if we don't clear the undead legion in the canyon, Iron Mask will need to take a detour to deliver supplies for us in the future!
In this way, we, who were already strained in the supply line, will be even more passive!
Legion stronghold.
Leon pointed to the canyon on the map and said, "The number of the undead legions here is thirty thousand, and the maximum number of undead legions we dealt with before was only 12,000!" But the goal of the mission is still not to leave a single living mouth! ”
"And the terrain of the canyon ahead is condescending, which is extremely unfavorable to our army, and the mobility and impact of our cavalry cannot be brought into play at all! Do you have any good solutions for this situation? ”
I pointed to the other end of the canyon and said, "If you want to go around and block their back road, even if you run with all your might, it will take a day and a night!" Moreover, our troops are already insufficient, and if we divide our troops, I am afraid that the frontal impact will be greatly affected! ”
Wang Tuo stood aside with a knife and didn't say a word, this is already a custom, he is a dagger, he can pick the most suitable time to insert into the enemy's heart, but he is not a person who creates opportunities!
Xie Yuhan said: "I can use the charm to bombard the enemy camp first!"
Leon shook his head and said: "It doesn't have much effect, the canyon is narrow, and there is a natural danger barrier, although your spell bombardment is powerful, it is easier to startle the snake!" ”
I pointed to a small plain in the middle of the canyon and said, "What if we lure their main forces out by luring them out, and then fight a decisive battle on the plains?"
Leon was silent!
It's a good idea, but the decoy is too dangerous! If you're not careful, you'll be torn apart by those undead legions!
Leon: "That's a good idea, then let me do the lure mission myself!" ”
All of us here can take on the task of luring soldiers, but not Leon!
Me: "I'd better do it!" I came up with the idea! And if the Blue Dragon Knights don't have your command, their combat effectiveness will drop a lot! ”
Leon shook his head.
"The autonomous combat in the Knights is very high, and even without my command, it will not lose its combat effectiveness! And you don't have enough experience on the battlefield, if you can't lure the enemy out at once, or if you let people see the flaws! Our tactics couldn't be more effective! ”
Leon is telling the truth, if it doesn't succeed once, the situation will become extremely troublesome!
At this time, Wang Tuo, who had been silent, stood up and said, "I'll come!" Lord Leon, you are still in command, Fang Ming, you are still cutting the back of the enemy's army! ”
Leon said: "Don't fight! I'm the only one who is best suited to the task of luring soldiers! ”
Wang Tuodao: "No! I'm the right fit! ”
Leon: "Why? I need a reason that will convince me! ”
Wang Tuo pulled out the long knife in his hand and said: "Maybe you are much stronger than me in terms of commanding corps combat and individual combat effectiveness, but if you want to break through and impact the enemy's weak points!" I don't think there's anyone in this tent who is more skilled than me! And when it comes to luring the enemy, these two points are the most important, aren't they? ”
Indeed, Wang Tuo had been on the edge of the battlefield before, and every time he entered the battlefield, he could force himself to break through after hitting the enemy's weak point! Even Lyon couldn't praise that!
Leon hesitated, Wang Tuo's reason was very sufficient!
"So be it! I assign Mingxi to you! Be sure to keep the maximum vitality back there! ”
Afterwards, Leon said: "Fang Ming, after Wang Tuo succeeded in luring the enemy, he quickly seized the canyon heights, and Yuhan did his best to cover Fang Ming!" The rest of you, follow me to ambush on the right side of the plain, ready to attack at any time, just remember that if the enemy breaks through to the left side of the plain, don't stop it, let them break through! ”
"Why?" It was Xie Lingshan who asked.
Leon explained: "Nine thousand against thirty thousand, if we force a fight with them, although we can win the battle, but the casualties will definitely be very large, so if they are willing to retreat, we can rely on mobility to bite and attack them!" There will be fewer casualties this way! ”
After explaining, Leon looked at his watch and said: "The battle will start in two hours, you will send your subordinates to bring enough food and drinking water for two days, this battle will be a tough battle!"
……
As Leon said, this battle is a tough battle,
The most critical thing in this battle was Wang Tuo's lure soldiers, and Leon assigned 1,500 people to Wang Tuo, including Xie Lingshan and Xuanyuan Mingxi, the two fierce female gods of war!
And I led 2,000 men under my command to the side of the canyon and hid!
Xie Yuhan is with me, and she will fully support me after my raid!
Because, after Wang Tuo's successful lure of troops, whether I can quickly seize the high ground of the canyon will determine the final outcome of this battle!
If I fail to capture and the undead army in pursuit sees our intentions, they will quickly retreat and form a flanking attack with the defenders in the canyon, and then we will be in the back of the enemy!
Even if we're lucky enough to break through, it's hard to capture this canyon again! Moreover, the strategic plan of our surprise attack on the Demon Capital will also be completely exposed to the air!
