Chapter 367: Blitzkrieg
"Marshal, we found 9 elven villages yesterday, and they have all been destroyed, and a total of about 600 elven women have been captured." As soon as he went online, McCann rushed over and reported to Li Huailin, "Marshal, what about these prisoners?" ”
"Send the logistics team to press back,. It's useless to put it here. Li Huailin waved his hand casually and said, "How is the intelligence on the elf's side?" ”
"The people of the Silver Wind Guard must have received a report of our invasion, and they should be rushing towards us now, but the exact location is not known yet." McCann said here.
"Alas...... Why? Li Huailin asked.
"This is the territory of the elves, and it is really difficult for our intelligence force to carry out." McCann said, "The scouts have been rolled out, but there is relatively little information received. ”
"Hmm......" Li Huailin nodded, "Then try to send as many people as possible, intelligence is very important, and it's really tiring to rely on the enemy's tactics alone." ”
"Yes, Marshal." McCann here said, "And what is today's mission?" ”
"Continue to attack the village." Li Huailin said with a wave of his hand.
"Do you want to continue?" McCann here said, "Start now?" Marshal, most of the nearby villages have been attacked by us. ”
"Start now, if there is no one nearby, go further away, and you can attack all the villages you find anyway." After Li Huailin finished speaking, he thought about it and added, "By the way, I have to come back before dark." ”
"Uh...... Yes, Marshal. McCann nodded, and then went out to set the task again.
"I guess there's nothing to do today......" Li Huailin finished arranging the task and just wanted to lie down, but suddenly received a remote call.
I opened the interface and looked at it, it turned out to be red dust and smoke and rain, and it was estimated that it was a matter of the territory. Li Huailin immediately picked it up and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"Uh...... Well, your king's friend is now in our land......" said the red dust and rain here.
"Anthony?" Li Huailin touched his head, yesterday he saw the announcement of the declaration of war between the Nasser Empire and the Elven Country, but Li Huailin felt that it was not necessary, this was originally none of Anthony's business, but now it is pulling them all up. After thinking about it, Li Huailin felt that he still had to explain things to Anthony.
"Then you wait a minute, I'll be back now." Li Huailin thought about it and said.
"Now, aren't you leading troops into battle?" The red dust and smoke on this side asked.
"It's nothing to do now, I'm still free, I'll go back to the city now, and I'll rush back to the camp in the evening." Li Huailin said.
"Okay then, you can come back first." The red dust and smoke and rain here thought about it.
Now the place where Li Huailin's return to the city scroll is bound is in his own territory, so he used it to return to the city and appeared in Suovata City. Soon returned to his duke's palace. Sure enough, when he walked to the door, Li Huailin saw a team of members of the royal guards stationed at the door of his duke's palace.
"Archduke Aquitaine?" Seeing Li Huailin coming from the door, the soldiers of the royal guard here were very surprised and said, when they arrived here in the morning, they heard that the Duke of Aquitaine had led the troops to the battle, and he had been walking for a day, and he was marveling at the speed of the Duke's troops, but he didn't expect to turn his head and see the Duke actually appear at the door of his house, how could they not be surprised.
"Where's Anthony?" Li Huailin turned his head and asked.
"Huh? Oh. His Royal Highness the King is inside. "It took a long time for the soldiers here to hear Anthony's name and realize that it was the name of His Royal Highness the King, how dare you call the King's real name directly. It's worthy of the Duke of Aquitaine," his subordinates immediately went to report. ”
"No need, I'll go in and find it myself." Li Huailin waved his hand and said.
He walked into his house with ease, and then walked in the direction of the cabinet on the second floor, and just went upstairs to see four royal guards at the gate of the Ministry of the Interior, and it was obvious that Anthony was in the Ministry of the Interior.
Sure enough, Li Huailin walked to the door of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and saw Anthony asking Norman, the current interim minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, about something. Norman probably met His Royal Highness the King for the first time and asked him about things, and he felt very nervous. Behind the two stood Red Dust and Smoke, Oliveira and other people and Wilkham and others brought by Anthony.
"Anthony." Li Huailin stood at the door and waved his hand and shouted.
"Wyrin?" Anthony raised his head and looked at the door, looking at Li Huailin with a little surprise, but immediately reflected again. got up directly and walked over to this Li Huailin is a bear hug, "Why are you back?" Didn't you say that you had already led your troops into battle? ”
"yes, there's nothing going on with the garrison there now, I'll be back." Li Huailin said with a smile, "I said that I fought you with the elves to join in the fun, and there is no need for the entire empire to declare war with the elves." ”
"Hey, what do you say, you've only been here for a few days, how do you feel like it's never stopped, on average, there is a big event a day." Anthony here said.
"What's the matter, there are ministers who bother you?" Li Huailin asked.
"This ...... It's not, I don't know why the ministers are talking for you, it's strange......" Anthony said here, "Basically all the ministers ask me to reward you......"
"Huh? Is it. Li Huailin touched his head, probably because he triggered the situation of the minister's favorability, it is true that there have been some names that have not been heard recently and inexplicably add favorability to himself, of course, there are too many people in the family recently, and Li Huailin is also a little overestimated.
"I'm really worried about something happening to your territory, I didn't expect to hear this...... Norman: yes, I heard him say that the situation in the territory is not bad now, and the people have accepted your 70% tax rate, I really don't know how you did it. Anthony said here.
"The charisma is too strong, I can't help it." Li Huailin shook his head and said.
"Forget it, I didn't want to care about you in the first place, I came here today mainly to ask you what the situation is with the elves, and you really want to fight or what, but after you came, I found that you led the troops out yesterday, are you so anxious?" Anthony said.
"Really going to fight." Li Huailin said, "The other party is too arrogant, I just can't see a guy who is more arrogant than me on the edge of my house, so I have to fight." ”
"That's why?" Anthony asked.
"Of course, the main thing is that people occupy my mine, how can I not call it back, do you say it?" Li Huailin spread his hands.
"How do you need my cooperation?" Anthony here immediately asked, "Is the First Army going to send troops?" ”
"I really didn't count you this time." Li Huailin said, "In fact, I think that if we destroy the elven clan, our second legion will be enough. ”
"You want to destroy the elves?" Anthony here said in surprise.
"Oh, I'm just giving you an extreme example, that is, it's enough to kill them, it's still very easy to beat them." Li Huailin said, "On your side, the demon side is estimated to have not eased up yet, but there is no threat, mainly on the side of the beast race, although it is said that the human race and the beast race are not at war now, but just in case, the first legion still can't move, so this time there is nothing to do with you." ”
"The Second Legion really doesn't have much advantage against the Silverwind Guards." Anthony on this side said, "Wylin, the Silver Wind Guard is not to be underestimated, any member of the army is higher than the people of the Second Legion in terms of Su zhì alone, and only the soldiers of the First Legion can compare with them. ”
"Yes, Lord Duke." Wilkham on this side also stepped forward and said, "We have fought with the people of the Silver Wind Guard before, and the other party's army is really not blown. ”
"Yes, it is said that every soldier of the Silver Wind Guard is proficient in bows and arrows, and his accuracy and range are much higher than those of the Terran soldiers." Li Huailin had heard McCann talk about this, "But isn't it funny that a strange legion like the Silver Wind Guard is not equipped with cavalry?" ”
"Wylin, do you really have the confidence to defeat them?" Anthony here asked again, "Where are the troops of the Second Army advancing now?" I've got the First Army ready, or wait for the two sides to join forces before attacking. ”
"The men of the First Legion still don't move." Li Huailin said, "Anthony, you just need to stabilize the troops of the First Army, otherwise those guys have good brains, maybe they don't follow the routine." ”
"Those guys?" Anthony asked curiously.
"Well, anyway, the First Legion is not moving, the whole regiment is on alert, and then we will wait for my battle report." Li Huailin said.
"I don't know why it's so easy for you to talk about it now." Anthony here said with a wry smile.
"It's not a big deal." Li Huailin spread his hands, "Originally, the empire didn't even need to declare war, of course, the main reason is that I didn't have a good relationship with you, and I will definitely inform you before the next fight." ”
"I hope it's really the same as what you said, then let's do it for the time being, you can rest assured, the logistics of grain, grass and equipment will definitely keep up, the autumn harvest has just ended, and now the empire's financial resources are still very sufficient, according to the current scale, at least until April next year, there will be no supply problems." Anthony said.
"Huh? Next April? Li Huailin looked at it, it's only more than September, what kind of trouble is going to be in April next year, "I said Anthony, how long do you think I'm going to fight?" ”
"This ...... At least half a year. Anthony thought about it and said, the battle of hundreds of thousands of people between the two sides is already very fast in half a year.
"......" Li Huailin raised his forehead, "Forget it, I will find a way to eat the grain and grass myself, because I can't eat enough grain and grass here, so I will consume the war and consume it, so I don't need to trouble you here, and if the war is concerned, I will find a way to make it end within a week." ”
"A week?" Anthony was stunned, "Are you sure you're fighting?" ”
"yes." Li Huailin nodded. (To be continued......)
