"There are 7 castles on the border line, and the other side can capture them all in one day, and this is definitely because of the red-coated cannon!" Clark stood in the hall and talked, General Zorn was not there, he was now the most powerful minister in the entire imperial city.

Being able to act as a minister under the diligent Emperor Arrant Hook, in fact, this Clark still has two brushes. Merely...... He only had those two brushes. After analyzing the general situation on the front line, he opened his mouth to suggest: "Alan Hill is short of troops, and he will definitely ask for reinforcements from the steppe!" ”

He analyzed this matter very thoroughly, after all, these things are within the scope of common sense. If the Iran Hill army is small, if it is not allied with the grassland, if the Grassland Empire goes south to plunder, won't Iran Hill fall into a situation where he is attacked by the enemy?

Anyway, according to common sense, there are only a few cities that Iran Hill can attack: Volavo in the east, Bude and Maricha in the south.

"Now, if you want to hold so many places, it's too late for reinforcements. We'd better set up our defensive line further back and then gather our forces and prepare for a counterattack. "The tactics that Clark said are actually the most decent tactics.

As long as there are no surprises, there will be no mistakes in this set of tactics, and as a prime minister of an empire, he is most willing to choose this kind of plan without mistakes. As for the various shortcomings of this plan, it is not something that he, the prime minister, needs to consider.

For example, one of the biggest problems with this arrangement is that the speed of gathering troops will be slow, and by the time the cities in depth are ready for battle, it is possible that Elanhir has already established himself in Volavo, Bude, and Maricha.

However, this was not a problem at all in the eyes of Prime Minister Clark, because he believed that the country of Irlanhill had few soldiers, and once it fell into the stage of long-term attrition, the situation would definitely be controlled by the vast land and large population of the Arrant Empire.

What's more, Clark still has reinforcements: the Arrant Empire has just suffered a big loss in the south, and the Holy Demon Empire has just given the Arrant Empire a stick, so it is naturally time to give the sweet dates.

Once the Holy Demon Empire is involved in the war and stands on the side of the Arrant Empire, then even if Alan Hill has three heads and six arms, he will never be the opponent of the alliance between the Holy Demon Empire and the Arrant Empire! At that time, let alone spitting out the city that it eats, it is a serious question whether the country of Irlanhill can still exist.

"But...... Prime Minister! Isn't this the same as giving up four cities? As the emperor, Arrant Hook did not agree with the ploy of the prime minister, Clark, and asked, "Is there no better way?" ”

In the emperor's opinion, the Arrant Empire is his own family's property, and he feels distressed about breaking pots and pots. Allowing Iran Hill to wreak havoc in his own country is a slap in the face.

"Your Majesty! As long as we hold our ground, as soon as reinforcements from the Holy Demon Empire arrive, Iran Hill will be wiped out. Clark glanced at Hook's face and explained.

No matter what others thought, Arrant Hook felt a surge of blood when he heard the name of the Holy Demon Empire - if it weren't for the Holy Demon Empire's intervention, his army would have almost wiped out the entire Dosen Empire by now!

As a result, it is like this, and Ellan Hill, a small country in the north, dares to brazenly provoke the powerful Arrant Empire, and Arrant Hook feels that he is very aggrieved, and there seems to be a suppressed sullen breath in his chest, which just can't be discharged.

"Wait, wait, wait! Are all my soldiers dead? Could it be that I don't even have a warrior who dares to fight in the Arrant Empire? Eventually, in the silence of the main hall, Arrant Hook finally broke out.

He really felt that his men were all rubbish, the kind of rubbish that couldn't share his worries. He struggles to revitalize his empire, only to be left in a daze with these stupid cysts every day.

"Your Majesty, the newly cast 20 red-coated cannons are to be deployed on the walls of the royal city, and the rest of the cannons have been taken to the south by General Zorn......" A general finally stood up and analyzed the current battle situation: "Without the red-coated cannons, our troops can't compete with the opponent's cannons......"

Speaking of this matter, Hook finally calmed down a little, he had seen the power of the red-coated cannon, without this thing, it was indeed not a wise thing to force his own soldiers to face the enemy's cannon with flesh and blood.

But he was still unwilling to defend passively like this, so he opened his mouth and ordered: "Then you can't sit still like this!" Pass my orders! Gather 100,000 troops and divide them into two ways! Immediately go north and reinforce Maricha and Bud! ”

On the vast plains south of Naru City, the black Golden Eagle King Banner was fluttering in the wind, and the army commanded by Koria was rapidly advancing southward, and they were advancing more than 50 kilometers in a day.

This speed is almost catching up with the advance speed of the mechanized troops, so in fact, Kolya has been carrying out high-intensity rapid marches all along. He actually did this in order to advance the front to Bud as soon as possible.

In fact, the scale of Bude City is not as large as that of Naru City, which is a transportation town and a defensive fortress, and the entire city has a population of about 300,000. Even so, it's a pretty big city.

The city is close to the kingdom of Higgs to the west, but the mountains and rivers make it difficult to walk between it and Higgs. Therefore, in the past, the trade route between the Higgs Kingdom and the Arrant Empire generally took the further north of the Higgs to Seris and then to Naru trade route.

However, Bude is still an important border town, and it is a very important defensive in-depth logistics base. It supports four castles in the direction of Higgs and is considered a very important military town.

Once the tens of thousands of Arrant border troops in the Bude direction are prepared for defense, it will certainly not be easy to win by relying only on a division of more than 5,000 people under the command of Koria. If the enemy is allowed to hold back and prepare to meet them in the field, then Koria's troops will still be in danger.

After all, if the Holy Demon Empire really goes into battle, relying on the defense of the city and fighting the dragon in the wild, it can definitely be said that they are two completely different states. Koria also wants to rely on the city to defend against a possible surprise attack by the Holy Demon Empire after making all preparations.

The imaginary enemy of Ellan Hill's attack this time was actually the Holy Demon Empire standing behind the Arrant Empire - as for the Arrant Empire in front, from beginning to end, Chris and his generals were not worried.

Vagron even promised Chris that if the Holy Demon Empire did not enter the war, he could advance directly to the royal city of the Arrant Empire and crush all the enemies he encountered along the way.

Urging his troops to advance as quickly as possible, Coria rode on her horse and waited for the liaison officer. A light cavalry rushed up from behind, holding the king's banner, and grabbed the reins of the horse at Koria's side.

"Phew!" Let the horse stop in front of Coria, one of the officers at the head clenched his right hand into his fist and pressed his chest, and after a military salute, he reached into a document bag on his back, pulled out an order with Wagron's autograph, and handed it to Coria: "Password curtain!" The order of His Excellency the General! ”

"Teacups! The password is correct! The order came really fast. Coria looked at the liaison officer in front of her, then lowered her head and opened the order file sealed in wax, and saw a simple line of orders written on it: "Don't cross the Bud line!" ”

"Hah! Wagron thinks we're four-legged monsters? I'd like to get past Bud! Koria folded the order and handed it to his adjutant: "Tell General Wagron!" My troops are still 90 kilometers from Bud! The fastest days to attack! ”

The officer nodded his head, pulled the reins of his own, and with his legs in the belly of the horse, galloped away in the direction from which he had come. The cavalry behind him, still holding the black royal flag, did not even take a break, and ran to the distant horizon.

The closer Bourgeos was also desperately advancing towards Maricha at this time, his troops closer to the target, but more slowly south. So he can only start attacking the day after tomorrow, which is already the fastest result.

General Modryel showed the keen sense of a famous general at this time, he abandoned the poorly equipped garrison 14th Regiment, and let the well-equipped 4th Regiment run with almost all the wagons and the fastest attack speed in the whole army.

By the time he received the order from Vagron, he had already entered the territory of the city of Wallavao, and he could launch a strong attack the next day.

The war, which began in the spring, was more of a rally between the armies of Iran Hill than a war. Decent battles barely broke out, and all the attacks were about the same as rushing.

In this way, all the way to the wild, while the Holy Demon Empire's reinforcements and the main force of Arrant were still stranded near the Abyss River, Chris's main force had dispersed and pressed to the farthest line of defense they planned to advance.

Standing in the way of the 40,000 Elanhill grenadiers and their 50,000 steppe cavalry allies were the 150,000 or so Arrant Empire garrisons and their reinforcements - the total strength of both sides was superior to the Arrant Empire, but which was stronger or weaker was another matter.

In fact, even without the grenadiers of Iran Hill, it may not be easy to win against the garrison of 50,000 steppe horsemen and 150,000 Arrant - but, in the end, for the generals of Iran Hill, this spring long-distance running race is finally over......
