The war here is not so bells and whistles, and the battles are laid out in the open.

Eighty thousand people were angry that the Norweeds had stationed a vanguard of 2,000 men on the plain, while the rest of the soldiers were all hidden in the forest.

They did not do anything else tactically, and it was true that the Holy War could not allow the knights to play a role and win because of the terrain, but in the same way, the Norweeds would not make any progress because of this.

However, the Norweeds did not seek victory, and the only purpose of these 80,000 men was to hinder the advance of the strongest Eastern Jihadist Army.

Although they did follow the will of the Jihadist Army, and indeed dispersed their forces to fight them instead of holding on, their purpose seemed to be achieved.

William's sentinels patrolled back and forth every day, but the only information they could get was about two thousand Norweeds assembled on the plains.

King Leonac gathered all the nobles together, and this matter really made him a little anxious.

The Norweeds hope to use the forest to render the powerful knight forces of the Holy War useless, and they have to admit that the knights of the Loerd are indeed powerful and nemesis of the infantry.

Therefore, they all cowered in the forest, afraid that the Holy War would gather all the knights and crush them in a wave.

After all, it was 12,000 knights, a situation that had never happened in the war of the Holy Sect world, what a situation it must have been for these 12,000 knights to charge.

Speaking of which, the charge of 12,000 knights has been weakened a lot, and although the combat power is still extremely strong, if you want to crush the entire 80,000 Norwid warriors, it is estimated that there will be a lot of casualties.

The constant charge is also a lot of pressure on the horses, so even if you want to rely on the knights, you have to cooperate with the infantry to fight.

But now, all this is empty talk, the Norvids hide in the forest, they will not come out, the knights cannot fight in the forest on their horses, the dense forks and trunks of the trees block their formation and sight, and the ability to charge.

And it is even more impossible for them to give up their advantages to fight on foot, then they are not even as good as the heavy infantry, if they are allowed to dismount and fight on foot like this, it will be a tyrannical thing.

"Noble nobles, the damned, self-proclaimed brave Norvidians have cowardly hid in the forest, and they dare not face our knights!"

King Leonac glanced at Archbishop Bailinsin next to him, nodded, and continued: "The bravery of our knights has indeed been recognized by the enemy, and the cowardice of the enemy is the best praise for us!" ”

"However, it also makes it more difficult for us to fight! Our advantage lies in a tight array, allowing the enemy to face our invincible formation, rather than going to the forest to engage in a melee with the enemy! ”

King Leonac was right when he said this, although many noble armies could not be called to have any tight formations and tight arrays, but it was still possible to simply form a phalanx.

This is much better and more reasonable than the pills that the Norwids are messing around with when they fight, and although many noble armies can only do this, there are also quite a few armies that can indeed make such formations.

For example, William's Denlenburg infantry, the soldiers of the Iron Forest, as well as the army of the Kingdom of Astra, and the army of the Grand Duchy of Krisla, can all do it.

And if they are allowed to enter the forest, they will face a melee situation caused by the inability to line up, so that their advantages cannot be brought into play, and the brave and good at fighting, tall and mighty Norvids are the best at this kind of melee, they will definitely be invincible, and the conquest army will be defeated and retreated, which is almost the enemy's strength, and the weakness of their own strength.

The Denlenburg infantry might have been better, and William deliberately codified a strategy for coordination in the melee, with one sword and shield soldier protecting the triangular formation of two pikemen.

But the other armies were different, they did not have such a tight arrangement as the Denlenburg infantry, and they would definitely suffer in the face of a melee with the Norwids.

When the whole army enters the forest to fight the Norwids, maybe the entire Eastern Road Jihadist Army will be in danger of being wiped out, and then the enemy will have a chance to turn the situation around!

Therefore, the Holy War must not enter the forest, but if it does not enter the forest, it will not work with the enemy here.

If you don't enter the forest, the other party will definitely not come out, so the two sides will face each other in front of the forest, which will allow the enemy's goal to succeed, and they will successfully prevent the Eastern Jihadist Army from being here, unable to merge with the other two roads.

After thinking about it for a while, William basically understood what King Leonac meant, since the enemy would not come out, then drive them out.

This is what King Leonac meant, to drive out the enemy, then there is no doubt that he will engage them.

And engaging the enemy will undoubtedly result in many casualties, which William would never do.

"So I need some troops to go to the forest to drive the other side out, the difficulty is that you have to bluff and make the enemy think that you have a lot of people, otherwise the enemy will wipe out all the troops that enter the forest!"

King Leonac said with a little sadness on his forehead, which was slightly sagging due to his age.

They didn't think about those ways to lure the enemy, but then they all vetoed it, after all, the enemy can completely ignore any fighter planes in their eyes, and their task is just to hold on.

It is impossible to lure the enemy, which is a relatively safe method, and the only thing left is to drive them out, and the enemy must think that many people have entered the forest, so that they can be driven out.

The nobles in the tent looked at each other, and then there was silence for a while.

No one wants to do such drudgery, and if you do it, there is no benefit, and if you fail, you have to fold your own army and even your own name into it, which is too uneconomical.

Looking at the silent nobles, King Leonac knew that this task was too difficult for the strong, and no one would want to go at all.

And at this moment, King Echhard, who was passing by Tskema below, suddenly spoke, and even Count Muyoen did not react suddenly.

"Dear King Leonac, I am more interested in this task, my brave and loyal vassal, the honorable Earl of Denlenburg, Count William will definitely complete this task!"

After saying this, King Huntard glanced at William triumphantly, and his eyes stole the pleasure of the successful conspiracy and the feeling of arrogance.

This was his impromptu idea, and even the Earl of Mouuin was completely unaware of the matter, and if he knew, it would have been absolutely impossible for King Huntard to make such a stupid act as offending William.

But even so, since King Echhard spoke, William would never be able to refute it, and as his vassal, William had no choice.
