"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, the reconnaissance unit on the flank has come to report. In the direction of three o'clock, the enemy's ambush troops were observed. Sykes Fandel, who was sitting in the commander's chariot in the center, suddenly came to his senses after hearing this message from his subordinates.

"How's the distance?"

"No more than 80 Cels...... Soon there will be a close encounter with our side. According to their observations, the other side seems to have some light infantry equipment and about fifty mechs, and they are attacking in an evenly dispersed formation. ”

"Didn't hide yourself...... Are you going to go to war here? Sykes said softly, "It's almost time to reach the plains...... This is probably their last chance to fight. Sykes looked at the map in front of him—the red stripes that symbolized the path of the chariot troops, and he was about to leave the narrow hilly area.

"Lieutenant General, according to my opinion, it seems that the enemy's purpose is not just to repel us, but to inflict certain losses on us...... Otherwise, they would not ignore our two flank forces, but march directly towards the two formations of the "Eighteenth" in the central area. Sykes's adjutant expressed his opinion, "Therefore, I am more inclined to the fact that this is an act of the commanders themselves than an order from the Marquis de Rogner himself." ”

"Not bad. Although the Marquis of Rogner was a martial artist, he had always been meticulous in terms of strategy and tactics, and it was impossible for him to do such a greedy and reckless thing. Sykes nodded approvingly, "You can objectively analyze a person's personality traits, even if this person is a great nobleman whom you hate very much...... This has to be said to be a good growth. ”

The lieutenant was a little embarrassed...... but it was true: no amount of exercise could compare to the growth he had been able to experience in actual combat; In just over a month, he had learned something he couldn't learn in the previous year.

"Don't be modest...... What do you think? How should we respond? Go on. Lieutenant General Sykes said kindly.

"I think that since their idea is to capture the thief directly and capture the king first, why don't we also plan it...... In the current situation, they should have discovered our two flanks, but they were not prepared, which shows that they are very confident in their own ability, and they feel that they can intercept us here before our two flanks can find out that the situation is wrong and rush to reinforcements. "Therefore, my opinion is that we should simply use this self-confidence of theirs, preserve our vital strength, and deliberately pretend to be flustered, and retreat in a northwest-northwest direction. ”

"And after that?" Lieutenant General Sykes did not change his face.

"The northern region is a minefield that we have laid out, and our special operations formations should have already arrived there." He continued, "Therefore, I think we only need to hold out for a few tens of minutes, and the minefield should have been set up over there, and we should switch formations at this time and drive the soldiers of the noble army in the direction of the minefield. Unlike this hill, the terrain near the minefield is flatter, and it is more favorable to us in the event of an engagement; At the same time, the view is better than that of the watchtower, and those troops stationed there should be more likely to observe the anomalies here, and thus attract them to come to support, which will provide a better opportunity for our main force to operate this operation. ”

"Moreover, at this time, if the flanking troops on both sides are dispatched and inserted into the rear of the enemy, this group of enemies can be completely dragged down. In this way, the situation of the battle will be completely changed...... Only, it had to be after they solved the problem of the surveillance tower. Lieutenant General Sykes nodded, "The actions of the two flanking forces are important...... Now, then, send out the heralds at once, so that the lieutenants on both sides will not act rashly, and wait for my further orders...... In addition, if the radio is turned on to the maximum extent, if the siege of the surveillance tower is lifted, we will be able to restore the guide communication here as soon as possible. ”

"Yes...... I'll do it. The adjutant said.

"It's one o'clock at noon...... ? Lieutenant General Sykes sighed and fell into thinking again - this time he personally went out into battle, and he brought the last remaining main army of his own, which was strong in terms of combat effectiveness and morale, so in fact, Sykes was very confident that this battle, in his own part, would definitely be won no matter what. In the plan just now, he just wanted to see the adjutant's strategy, so he deliberately gave up such a strategy, but in fact, this is not the real optimal solution.

"That's it...... Until the time is up, let's go along with their plans. If it doesn't work, you can only turn the muzzle of the gun and blow up the surveillance tower. Lieutenant General Sykes put down his pocket watch and said to himself.

"Another group of troops left...... Four mechs and a small number of infantry units again? The long period of lurking made the students' hearts a little anxious, but a real soldier like Claire had long been accustomed to this - when she was on the mission of the "Railway Gendarmerie" in the past, she stayed motionless in the field as a sniper for a day and a night, and this kind of thing was nothing at all. However, when she observed the defenders' actions again, she knew that the opportunity had come.

"As a result, nearly half of the military has been transferred...... As long as we can get into the "watch tower" first, we should be able to catch them off guard. Rien nodded, "Of course it would be nice if we could solve the battle quickly...... If it doesn't work, call out to the "Rider God" and let it escape with us. ”

"The surveillance zone on the perimeter of the surveillance tower has been clearly loosened." Tovar, who was covered in various military paints, appeared out of nowhere—he had just dressed up and turned around the other side of the tower to check on the defenders, "It should take a lot of time for them to get over - it's just that in this way, we should destroy the "watch tower" ...... as soon as possible."

"If you use installation explosives...... "Claire thinks," it may take a few minutes. But can we hold back those two "executors" before then? ”

"Huh...... Don't worry about that. Suddenly, a voice intervened, startling everyone present.
