Chapter 895: Rodernny's Troubles
Zhao Hongyu knew that what Sara said was right, and at the same time, she was also for her own good.
But the problem is that Zhao Hongyu also has his overall considerations, as well as some arrangements he made after measuring the combat effectiveness of his troops.
Therefore, Sarah's proposal, Zhao Hongyu really has no way to accept it.
Moreover, after listening to Sara's words, Zhao Hongyu also found that Sara was not very thoughtful about some issues, and even ignored them.
Moreover, if you don't consider these issues, it will be very fatal for you to attack Shira Castle.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu felt that he had to give Sara a lesson.
Of course, Zhao Hongyu can also see that compared to the confused Emma, Sara can be regarded as a manufacturable material.
If she can study it systematically, she may be able to help herself deal with some military problems in the future.
At that time, wouldn't it be much easier for me?
As for Emma...... Let's take a look.
"You're right, but you don't see a very important problem. If I follow your suggestion and devote all the existing forces to it, our losses will be even greater. ”
Zhao Hongyu also responded to Sara seriously.
What the? Am I overlooking an important question?
After hearing Zhao Hongyu's words, Sara was visibly stunned.
She thought about it for a moment, and couldn't think of what important issue she had overlooked.
And his little man said it so seriously, saying that if he followed her advice, it would cause greater losses.
It's a bit unlikely, right?
Well, since that's the case, then you have to listen to the picture yourself.
She also wanted to know what aspect of Lu Dao she hadn't thought through.
If what his little man said was right, then he would have nothing to say to be convinced.
But if your little man is not right. Then you have to stick to your own idea and move him.
Zhao Hongyu didn't wait for Sara to ask, so he continued: "You also saw the defensive structure of Shiliang City, right? Sara nodded, indicating that she certainly knew.
After getting Sara's response, Zhao Hongyu said, "You see, the defense system of Shiliang City is a spiraling city wall that is higher than one layer at a time. At the same time, you need to mind that the inner city of the city is very narrow. If I had to devote all my troops, in the inner city of such terrain in the spiral mountain road. There is simply no way to unfold. ”
Zhao Hongyu raised his hand and pointed to Shiliang City in front of him, and patiently explained to Sarah.
Although he was telling Sara this, Hattori Chizuru and Emma, two little girls, also listened intently.
"This kind of terrain is not conducive to the deployment of the army, not to mention, if we encounter any trouble, even in such a situation where it is too crowded, it will become very troublesome for us to withdraw our troops. At the same time, the defenders of the upper defensive circle can easily come from above. The use of their fortification equipment inflicted heavy casualties on our side. ”
When Sara heard Zhao Hongyu say this, she completely understood what she had overlooked.
Isn't it, I'm really a pig's head, and I even neglected such an important thing.
The winding mountain road of Shira Castle is very narrow. At most, ten soldiers can move side by side.
It's really very troublesome to have a terrain like this, or thousands of troops squeezing into it.
Once the army is to retreat, or if it is hit by a blow, it becomes chaotic. Then it would be a real disaster.
Sara even imagined the scene and image of the soldiers crowding like sardines in the winding mountain road.
Oh my mother!
Sara shuddered.
"Uh...... I didn't think it through. ”
Sara blushed and made a mistake to Zhao Hongyu.
Because of the problem that Zhao Hongyu said. It was indeed what she overlooked.
And, as Zhao Hongyu said, this issue is a very, very important thing.
"When you encounter something like this in the future, think more about making decisions. And you have to think about the problem according to some environment and terrain, war is not only a contest of courage and weapons and numbers, but also many times strategy, people's hearts and terrain, all have to be taken into account. ”
Zhao Hongyu didn't want to hit Sara too much, after all, he was still thinking about having the opportunity to cultivate her in the future.
In any case, Sara is also her own woman, and if she gives birth to a child for herself in the future, then she can be regarded as her own descendant.
In the future, cronyism, let Sara also participate in government affairs or military management, and she can easily come down.
To put it bluntly, Zhao Hongyu still wants to be lazy and be a big shopkeeper.
"If you two have a chance in the future, can you also learn the Tao of Zhilu with Sarah?"
After finishing speaking to Sara, Zhao Hongyu turned his head and said a word to Emma and Hattori Chizuru on the side.
Hattori Chizuru didn't react much, because she didn't have much interest in this knowledge, but after all, it was her lord's request, and she could only bow her head and say 'oh', which was considered to be acceptable.
As for Emma, a heartless little girl, she smiled at Zhao Hongyu and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely study hard." After learning well, I can make my little wife admire me, as a big wife, you have to become very powerful, in order to manage them. ”
I'll it!
Zhao Hongyu rolled his eyes, he was completely speechless for Emma's thinking.
But no matter what, the third daughter will indeed be cultivated in the future.
Since he lost Wang Shan, he has always done things by himself, which has cost him a lot of brain cells, and he has lost a lot of hair.
So-called, in order to ensure that you will not continue to lose your hair, and at the same time will not age so quickly.
So, he needs some helpers.
After reflection, Sara has learned where her mistake was.
She had already recovered, and said to Zhao Hongyu: "However, after the enemy gathered a large army in the defensive circle of the fourth layer, their strength became very large. Then just with the Portuguese mercenaries of Viscount Rodelni and the Imperial Praetorian Guard of two legions, I think it will be a bit difficult to conquer the fourth layer. ”
Sarah's worst is still for this. continued to mention it to Zhao Hongyu, asking him to pay more attention to this aspect of the problem, and to be able to come up with a good solution.
When Zhao Hongyu heard Sara say this, he pondered for a while.
"Well, you're right. But don't worry too much, you have to keep your confidence in the combat effectiveness of the Praetorian Guard under my command. They have in their hands the secret weapons developed by our empire, which are still relatively powerful in this kind of siege warfare. ”
When thinking of the disposable copycat bazooka and the explosives bag, Zhao Hongyu felt that Sarah's worries were a little unnecessary.
If you don't have these weapons in your own army. Maybe it's really a bit of a hassle.
However, with this kind of weapon, the defenders in Shira Castle will be unlucky.
Moreover, the nine seemingly solid passes in Shiliang City are not vulnerable at all in the face of this weapon.
Isn't the fall of the first and second layers of defense already proving this?
Seeing Zhao Hongyu say this, Sara could only swallow the next few words.
And after thinking about the achievements of the Imperial Guards that she had seen with her own eyes, she felt as if she should take another look.
Zhao Hongyu outside the city. While discussing with Sara, the battle in Shira Castle intensified.
The Portuguese mercenaries under the command of Roderni had already begun a fierce battle with the defenders of the third layer of defense.
From the passage of the watchtower leading to the head of the city, the two sides began to fight each other cruelly.
For the defenders of the third tier. They had to block the passage to the city, or they would be very passive if the enemy attacked the city.
Only by blocking the enemy here to the death can they still grasp some of the initiative. Don't fall into the Jedi.
The defensive ring of the first and second layers had fallen, and they could see it clearly from above.
It was only after these enemies captured the defensive position at the head of the city that they completely lost the entire defensive circle.
So. They can't follow the same path as their peers and learn their lessons.
The defenders' hard work put Roderni under tremendous pressure.
Because the winding inner city mountain path was very narrow, his mercenaries could not invest too many troops at once, so their advantages could not be displayed in front of the defenders.
At the same time, in the watchtower staircase leading to the head of the third layer of the defensive circle, the other party and his own soldiers fought each other and defended each other, so that they were actually overwhelmed by them for a while.
That's not a good sign.
Because the defenders are condescending, they have a geographical advantage and can easily suppress their own soldiers.
And the soldiers on their own side, because they are going to attack on the back, so they consume a lot of physical strength, and at the same time, it has become a lot of trouble.
That's not all, the defenders stationed on the fourth floor, because they have complete defenses and equipment, they also began to attack themselves at this time.
Arrows kept falling in the sky, and many of the mercenaries were already counting arrows.
Fortunately, the armor on the big guy's body has a high defensive power, otherwise I don't know how many people would have fallen to the ground now.
At the same time, when the enemy saw that the arrows were ineffective, they began to throw stones, dropping logs one by one. These things, however, really cost Roderni and them a lot of manpower.
Add to this the overcrowding of the spiral mountain road, often a single stone or a thick rolling log can injure or kill many of them.
Faced with such a situation, Roderni was really worried.
At this time, following Zhao Hongyu's orders, the soldiers of the Imperial Praetorian Guard who had been mobilized from the first and second layers had already run up in a queue of long snake formations.
When their commander saw what Rodelny was facing, he immediately threw his genetically human soldiers into battle. (To be continued......)
