After Elvis listened to Sturridge's explanation, he was completely dumbfounded, when did the federal government army become so strong? And the other party's generals are really so powerful? Which general is this? Could it really be the legendary Oriental general?

Elvis smiled bitterly: "Sturridge, according to what you said, there are only three divisions left in Fort Ksri, plus one cavalry division, and we want to capture Richmond, but it is not so easy, we are not sure of victory......"

Sturridge smiled bitterly: "Yes, we are not sure of victory, and now if we want to ensure that Richmond can be taken, we must at least ask General Robert to send reinforcements again, at least one or two divisions......"

Elvis asked, "Now, what are we going to do?" ”

What to do?

Sturridge continued: "First, report the battle to General Robert, ask for punishment, and then ask General Robert to increase his troops; Besides, we must rush to the city of Richmond as soon as possible, and at this moment, I am afraid that the Southern Army of Fort Klee is already approaching Richmond, and with only three divisions, I am afraid that Ali Jean will suffer a great loss if he does not know the truth......"

Elvis nodded, his face solemn, and shouted: "Sturridge, you take a temporary rest here, I will lead the cavalry to advance at full speed, ready to join forces with Ali and besiege Richmond!" ”

At this time, Richmond, the headquarters of the Sixth Army, Grant summoned all the generals above the brigade level of the Sixth Army to study the operational deployment, and now Fort Kerry has completely fallen, I believe that it will not take three or four days, Sturridge's worries are right.

Grant looked at Guo Ye and said in a deep voice: "General Guo, this battle is still up to you......

Guo Ye shook his head and replied: "Grant, you are the commander-in-chief of the Federation, the supreme commander, I will deploy, it seems that it is ......"

Grant smiled: "Okay, this is not the time to be polite, the Southern Army is strong and menacing, and it is difficult for me to resist such a ferocious attack with my ......ability."

Guo Ye smiled bitterly: "Well, there is nothing to be flattered about in this battle, it is definitely a tragic offensive and defensive battle, Ali Rang's three divisions are experienced, our strength is comparable to it, it is not so easy to defeat the other party, it is still the old way, I led the main force out of the city to meet the attack, find a way to defeat Ali Rang, as for the cavalry in the south, although they have more than 10,000 people, but they lack heavy weapons to siege the city, if they want to capture Richmond, they have more than enough strength but not enough strength, and only need to leave a force, You can block the opponent's cavalry, and when I solve the three divisions of Alirang, I will go back to deal with the cavalry......"

"But ......"

Grant hesitated: "General Guo, our American cities are completely different from your country, your cities have tall walls as barriers, but Richmond does not have any city walls, even if there is no heavy artillery, cavalry can still rush into Richmond and capture Richmond...... I have full confidence that you will hold off Alijean's attack, but there is little chance that the defenders of Richmond will be able to hold off a cavalry division......"

Guo Ye's heart was shocked, it seemed that he was a little too taken for granted, without the barrier of the city wall, there were only a few troops left, and he could not stop the attack of the cavalry. However, if too many troops are left, it will be too difficult to defeat Alijang's three divisions, which is embarrassing......

Guo Ye just stared at the map of Richmond, towards a way to block it.

Chen Hai on the side said: "Big brother, I have a way, some adventures, I don't know if I can ...... it."

Guo Ye and Grant looked at Chen Hai at the same time, and Grant smiled: "General Chen, if you have any good ideas, just say it!" ”

Chen Hai said in a deep voice: "It's very simple, the most terrifying thing about cavalry is their mobility and impact, as long as we break their two advantages, then a cavalry division will have nothing to rely on......"

"But how can we eliminate such a strong advantage of the Southern Cavalry Division? People don't get off their horses to fight us, do they? ”

Grant asked.

Chen Hai replied: "General Grant, although we can't let the other side dismount and fight us, we can use the terrain to cut their advantage!" These days, I have led the officer corps to recon the terrain around Richmond, and I know that thirty miles south of Richmond there is a huge forest, more than ten miles long from east to west, and more than ten miles wide from north to south, and the forest is so dense that the road from Richmond to the south passes through the forest, dividing the forest into two halves, and I think that with the strength of a brigade, lying in ambush in the forest on both sides, and blocking the road to the north with artillery battalions in front, As long as the opponent's cavalry enters this forest, then we can leave it completely in place, the dense forest makes it impossible for the opponent's cavalry to move quickly at all, and in the dense forest, there is only passively beaten! If it is deployed properly, it is not impossible to beat it to a great extent! ”

Guo Ye's eyes lit up, he glanced at Grant, and nodded to each other, this method is definitely the most effective method!

Guo Ye said in a deep voice: "Okay, Xiaohai, this idea is good, just follow your idea, this time you will personally go out and lead the second brigade and artillery battalion to fight, be sure to kill the cavalry division of the Southern Army for me!" I also know you have the ability, don't let me down! ”

Grant frowned and asked, "General Guo, is it too hasty for us to only meet the opponent's first brother cavalry division with the strength of one brigade, the difference in strength is too much, but the other party is cavalry!" ”

Guo Ye shook his head, there can't be any more, Richmond can't be left unmanned, after all, there are still a large number of rangers in our rear, and there are no troops stationed in Richmond, once the other party knows about it, when the time comes to raid Richmond, we will really be unlucky! Xiaohai, I can only give you the strength of one brigade, plus an artillery battalion, are you sure? ”

Chen Hai groaned: "It is definitely impossible to completely annihilate the other party, but it is still certain to be sure that the opponent will block in that maple forest and then win the battle!" ”

Grant's heart twitched, did the people under Guo Ye really have such great ability? It's a cavalry division! You're going to defeat them with an infantry brigade? It's incredible!

Guo Ye nodded and replied: "That's good, Xiaohai, time is running out, immediately mobilize the second brigade, the cavalry marches quickly, don't miss the military plane!" ”
