Chapter 430: The Otherworldly Version Burns the Company Camp
William looked at the furious Urimu with a blank expression, the last allegiance, really only the last time, after this time, he was even thinking about breaking away from the feudal relationship of King Hechard.
After all, now this little king also has an idea, and if he really gives him any orders that are difficult for a strong man, he is not easy to refuse.
"How could he do that? Are we just going to put up with it? Or do you have to pay that big price to complete that little king's sport? ”
Hu Limu was still indignant about this matter, and he turned his head angrily and said.
William smiled and said, "How do you know that we will definitely pay a big price?" ”
Of course, William didn't plan to really go into the forest with his whole army to drive the enemy, that kind of method was too stupid, and if one was not careful, the whole army would be wiped out, and the feasibility was too low.
William already had a draft in mind, anyway, his task was only to drive the enemy out of the forest, and as for what method to use, it was not up to anyone else.
Hiding in the forest and not coming out, this is not too easy to do in William's opinion, a fire burns the forest, so the enemy still doesn't come out obediently?
When he looked at the Three Kingdoms, he hated Liu Bei stationed in the forest, and the entire army of 700,000 was burned to ashes under Lu Xun's fire plan, resulting in the annihilation of the Shu army.
And how similar is the situation of the Norweed people and the Shu army at this time, as long as they have a fire, they can easily drive the enemy out of the forest.
Driving them out was not the goal, if possible, William also hoped to be able to annihilate the enemy in the forest, like Lu Xun.
At that time, all the holy wars will see their achievements, and their prestige will soar with them, not just the one acre and three points near the kingdom of Tskema, and the entire continent will spread their fame.
Of course, William's way of getting along with each other does not mean that he is much smarter than others, but the way of thinking is different.
After all, the way of thinking of the nobles of the jihadist army is there, and this world is the same as Western Europe, most of the wars are to press the armies together, and then fight a decisive battle in a dignified manner.
Even if there is a strategic ambush or other tactics, it is not so complicated, and it is completely different from the deceitful and scheming battlefield of the Celestial Empire in the previous life.
In addition, the scale of the battle here is generally small, and there is no need for large-scale tactics such as fire attack, even if the Holy War Army is assembled on a scale that is not smaller than the war of the Celestial Empire, but the commander still can't change his mind.
Their thinking was still limited to a war of 10,000 or 20,000 people, and they did not think of this kind of fire attack tactics at all, so they came up with this clumsy method that would only be used when their own side had an absolute advantage.
I have to say that this action of the Norvid people really forced the top brass of the Jihadist Army to have no way at all, if they were blocked here like this, the Holy War might fail because of this, and the top brass of the Jihadist Army had no choice, so they came up with this idea.
I have looked at William with an inexplicable smile on his face, and I know that he must have an idea, every time William has an idea in his heart, his face will be this expression, and it has not changed at all in seventeen years.
"Don't sell it William, you must have an idea, tell me quickly!"
Hu Limu said, and Norwen also looked at William with a curious expression, they were the same as those high-ranking members of the Holy War Army, they couldn't turn this corner at all, and they didn't expect what William's plan was.
The so-called high-ranking members of the Jihadist Army are actually King Leonac and Archbishop Bailinsin, as well as some of their aides, and it is not surprising that they could not imagine it.
William smiled and touched the beard on his lips, feeling the smoothness of his beard and the slight pricking of his hands, and told them his thoughts.
After hearing this, he was overjoyed, he hammered his thigh, and said, "William, you are really a genius!" Why didn't I think of that? I know you have the most ideas! ”
Norwen was also happy, but then, Norwen asked: "But it's winter now, even if we set fire to this kind of cold place, we can't make the forest burn on a large scale, right?" Can this really be done? ”
Norwen's consideration is very reasonable, after all, this is not the same as the dry region, the northern part of the continent is not only cold, but also close to the sea, and there is this kind of perverted dampness at the same time as the cold.
It is indeed a bit difficult to want a large area of the burning forest, but what William wants is not to really destroy all the enemies, not to mention that the fire attack also has to be prepared, and when the live burning is strong enough, dampness is not a condition to hinder the burning.
And this, you need the help of combustibles, which are not too difficult to find, cooking oil, cloth, dry wood, or hay, all of which are sufficient.
William explained, telling the two of them what needed to be collected, and told them to prepare.
William's every move was watched by all the jihadist troops, and they wondered what method William was going to use to drive the enemy out, if he really wanted to drive him into the forest?
With doubts, they sent people to William's place every day to investigate the situation, and they were very puzzled after learning that William was collecting fuel, and they still didn't understand what William was going to do.
This had nothing to do with William, who collected the burning materials for two whole days, and finally it was about enough, William sent light infantry into the forest to investigate.
At this time, light cavalry can no longer be used, light cavalry will not be mobile in the forest at all, and it is very likely that they will be detected by the enemy.
Five hundred light armored infantry, which had not been used for a long time and had not been expanded for a long time, finally came in handy.
They are fast, nimble, and able to move quickly through the forest without being detected by the enemy.
In this way, 500 light infantry discovered the location of the enemy's camp and, on William's orders, placed a large number of incendiary materials in the forest.
There is only one exit left, and that is the plain outside the forest, where the Jihadist Army can play the most.
The sky gradually darkened, and in winter, not only did the sun become powerless, but even the moon became hazy, and the whole sky looked like a dim world, with an inexplicable sense of weirdness.
William, who is not weird, doesn't care, all he cares about is whether the battle is successful or not.
Looking at the moon overhead, he conveyed the order to light the fire, and after the herald's transmission, after an hour, the five ignition points finally burned.
The light infantry lit the incendiary and looked at it for a while, and only after confirming that it was all burned did they hurriedly evacuate.
After all, the burning of the fire is not controlled by man, and it is impossible to say which way it spreads, and if they stay in the forest, they will die inside.
William looked at the weird full moon in the sky, smiled, and said silently in his heart: "The Otherworldly version of the Burning Company Camp has officially started now!" ”
