According to the rules set by Arantlan, the fortress of Barnoll sent several rangers to patrol around the fortress every day, in order to prevent the Frank army from sending a small force to sneak past the fortress and harass the logistics supply line of the Paz army, and as a result, the Frank army was actually encountered on this day.

The size of the Frank army was not large, only about five hundred, but this was already much larger than the number of Rangers, so the Rangers, who discovered the enemy's situation, sent reinforcements while lurking and tailing. The battle was soon over, with half of the 500 Franks killed and the rest taken prisoner.

The captives were soon taken back to the fortress of Barnoor, where they were the first prisoners of war captured to date, and Arantrán personally interrogated them, revealing some strange phenomena.

It stands to reason that Arantlan's interrogation was just a formality, and he had no intention of finding out anything valuable about the captives. But a few of the junior officers caught his eye, for they all had a fiery red flower pinned to their breastplates, and Arantrán recognized at a glance that it was a wild grass called pom-poms, which was only found halfway up the Gulabarca mountain. And this kind of pom-pom flowers can only be stored for about seven days at most after picking, which indicates that these people must have just been brought to the front from Gulabarcha Mountain. At this time, Igina's words were once again reflected in Arantlan's mind, so he deliberately intensified the interrogation of these people.

During the interrogation, Arantrán learned that these men were from the north of Frank, and that they had been stranded there because they had participated in the siege of a city on the border of Pass, and that they were able to conquer the city and rush to the front line, only to be assigned a new task as soon as they arrived - to infiltrate behind enemy lines as suspicious soldiers. It's a dangerous and hard job, and people don't want to come, so naturally it falls on these people who haven't even set up camps.

Arantrán took in the other captives, leaving only these few men, and then plucked the pom-pom from the chest of one of them, and said, "You are quite interesting, and you have the strength to climb halfway up the Gulabarca mountain to pick flowers during the march?" Looks like you've had a pretty good time there, don't you? ”

Those people were shocked when they heard this, and a man named Junbuck was busy saying: "My lord is really a man of God, and he can predict the prophet!" I dare not hide it from you, but we did rest for a few days at Gulabarcia, because the military order ordered us to arrive within fifteen days, and we had two days of abundance on the road, and we happened to have a few acquaintances in Gulabarcia, so we stayed there for two days. ”

Alantran sneered, "Are you greedy for food there? It is your place to store food, and you have been short of food and drink along the way, so naturally you will not let go easily when you get there. ”

The men were terrified, and they all bowed their heads. Rong Buck trembled and said: "My lord is really omniscient, we don't dare to deceive a few words." There, there was indeed a large amount of grain and grass in the Gulabarcha Mountains, and all the troops passing by could get much better supplies there than usual, so that no one who could pass through this place did not want to stay a few more days, and we hurried desperately to stay for a few more days. ”

"Very well," said Arantlan, pacing beside them, "I ask you, how many troops were there when you came?" What kind of troops are they? How to configure the campsite? But there was a lie, and your heads were cut off together. ”

Rong Buck hurriedly said: "The villain doesn't dare!" We don't know the details of this situation, but we only heard from our friend that there are 30,000 permanent troops stationed in Gulabharcha Mountain, but because of the shortage of food on the front line, these 30,000 people have to keep shifts to transport food to various parts of the front line, and the time is longer or shorter, so the actual number of people stationed there cannot reach 30,000, only more than 10,000 at the time, and only 20,000 at most times. The adults said that the camp configuration and the small people didn't know much about it, but they only remembered that the barracks were all west of the main peak of Gulabarca Mountain. There was a valley there, so it was only fenced off with a grain cart to become a deer. ”

"What's the use of just one deer? If it is attacked by the enemy, it will be broken in an instant. Alantran asked, leaning in on Junnc.

Rong Buck waved his hand hurriedly and said, "This villain really doesn't know!" But that's true. By the way, the villain heard the friend mention a few words, he seemed to say that the camp was originally going to be set up in the mountains, but the general in charge said that it was inconvenient to transport food, so he changed the camp, and said that the people above didn't care about the life or death of the people below, just talking nonsense, if it wasn't for the supervisor's opportunistic action, they would have to get rid of a layer of skin. ”

Only then did Arantran straighten up and said, "Okay, I'll trust you, you go back to your cell and wait for the time being." I'll confirm what you've said, and if anything goes wrong, don't blame me for being ruthless. ”

"The adults just have to verify it, if the villain has a lie, he is willing to die."

Arantran waved his hand and motioned for his men to take the captives down, while he plotted on the battle map - if the information of the captives was true, then it confirmed Igana's words, and the information provided by the captives was much more valuable than Igana's, because they not only provided the location of the food hoard, but also the approximate armament of the troops. He knew that there was indeed a valley to the west of the main peak of Gulabarcia, and the terrain there was the gentlest area of the whole mountain, which was very suitable for the deployment of cavalry, and if the Frankish army only set up a deer barn with grain carts around the mouth of the valley, then once it encountered a sudden attack and fire attack, it would not be able to prevent the powerful Paz cavalry from breaking into it.

Perhaps this was providential to allow the Paz Empire to gain the initiative on the battlefield, and it was difficult for Arantlan to hide the excitement rising in his heart, especially after he had set the route of movement and retreat of his troops on the map, and repeatedly considered the feasibility of this battle plan.

"Herald! All the generals are coming to the meeting immediately! Arantran shouted. At this time, the battle plan in his mind was gradually taking shape, and what he needed now was for his subordinates to continue to improve this battle plan for him, to do his best to hide from the sky and the sea, and complete this plan under the nose of the Frank army.
