Chapter 105: Collecting Grain Again (1)

Merlin calendar: January 30, 1950. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The advent of the goddess of spring gradually ended the cruel domination of the cold winter on the mainland, the sun's rays became more and more powerful, and the snow covering the earth began to melt slowly, and the land that had been buried in the snow for a long time exuded vigorous vitality when it regained the light of day!

Everything is awake, this is the most vibrant time of the year, but in the kingdom of Custer, a storm that has been raging for months is coming!

Seoul, the main hall of the city. Gretel, as well as the generals of the Three Kingdoms, gather here!

"Wenhe!"

"Wechen is here!"

"Let me introduce you to our current troops!"

Jia Xu nodded, faced everyone, and said with a proud smile: "In the past two months of recuperation, the upper limit of our army's 20,000 troops has been completely full!" ”

He glanced at everyone, and a wave of pride rippled in his chest, "At present, our army has seven kills and one kill, and we have 10,000 ironclad infantry!" Seven kills and two divisions, with 4,000 ironclad spearmen, greedy wolf army, with 3,000 Central Plains light cavalry, and seven kills, with 3,000 ironclad crossbowmen! ”

20,000 people, although it doesn't seem to be anything compared to the 62,500 people of a legion, any of the generals present are confident that they can lead 20,000 people to defeat any kingdom-level legion force!

After saying all this, Jia Xu took a step back and looked at Gretel.

Glitter nodded with satisfaction, "Joyce, what is the current strength of the enemy army?" ”

Joyce stepped forward, "Lord, generals......" and other generals have been staying for a long time, and Joyce has basically contracted the habit of calling Lord Gretel.

"Ed rebelled, personally led the first, second, fourth, and three major legions, a total of 187,500 men stationed in the main city of the province of Millam, three major legions, with about 150,000 infantry! 20,000 cavalry, 10,000 archers, and an unknown number of magicians. The number of veterans of the three legionnaires accounts for only one-third, and the rest are all newly recruited soldiers, and the veterans are scattered among the recruits to lead the team for the recruits! "Joyce isn't Gretel's summoning general, so his loyalty is an issue!

Even if he showed 100% loyalty at the time, people's hearts can change, but fortunately, as if he knew this, Joyce could think from Gretel's point of view many times!

Regarding Joyce's dark department, Gretel never interfered too much in anything except for funds, and his attitude of complete trust also made Joyce extremely grateful! Being able to get to know the details of the enemy in advance before the war is enough to prove that Joyce has put a lot of effort into it!

"Nearly 190,000 troops, although the experience of the soldiers is much worse than that of veterans, but after all, this number is here!" Glitter nodded understandingly, and looked at the generals, "Guys, I don't know what to do to break the enemy?" ”

Xu Chu frowned, his hands instantly clenched into fists, "Lord, what else is there to ask, if you want me to say, we not only have 20,000 elite soldiers, but also 100,000 kingdom troops, with my Hancheng soldiers as sharp knives, tearing apart the enemy army, 100,000 troops are pressed by the whole army, hum, even if they have 190,000 people, they will definitely be defeated!" ”

Glitter smiled and nodded: "They will be defeated, I believe this, but although the king gave me the command of 100,000 soldiers, if they suffer heavy losses in this battle, we kill the traitor Ed, but because of the lack of troops, and are attacked by Herman, then we end up busy with a job, but cheaper Herman, isn't it a pity?" ”

Xu Chu's eyes widened, "Then we will build a steel-solid city wall in the south, so that they don't dare to attack easily!" ”

Glitter smiled and shook his head, looking at Jia Xu.

And Jia Xu looked at his nose and nose, and the old monk was in a state of concentration, and he didn't notice Gretel's gaze at all.

Gretel was speechless and looked at Tai Shici.

As soon as Gretel turned his head, he immediately picked up the cup next to him, and studied it carefully, and his careful and serious attitude almost made Gretel throw a probe over to see if the cup was an ancient artifact......

Gretel sighed in his heart, as their level increases, the scale of the war they encounter is getting bigger and bigger, hundreds of thousands of soldiers, sometimes they don't rush up in a swarm, they can tell the winner after a few days and nights, hundreds of thousands of soldiers are likely to turn into two or three units, either attacking their key points, or secretly ambushing, or encircling points to send reinforcements, the treacherous degree of war is more complicated than dealing with an old and cunning businessman!!

And Xu Chu and Tai Shici are both generals on the side of the famous town, and they are good at force, but unfortunately they can't sit on the side for themselves and take charge alone!

Gretel looked at Xu Shu, and Xu Shu's furrowed eyebrows loosened slightly, "Lord, Weichen is another immature plan!" ”

Gretel's eyes lit up: "You say! ”

"Lord, Ed's march will definitely be very long, so let's still attack by intercepting the grain route...... Xu Shu looked at Gretel, and his speed of speech was a little slow.

Gretel's brows furrowed: "The soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first, after one or two of our attacks, Ed may have a deep precaution against the safety of the grain and grass, even if their granary is separated from the camping point by a province, but if they deliberately hide, it is difficult for us to know their grain transportation route......"

Xu Shu immediately shook his head: "My lord, just like when we went to Iquique Province to be lobbyists, intercepting the grain road is just a pretense!" ”

Gretel's heart moved, "What do you mean ......?"

"My lord, you personally led an army to bypass the enemy's camp from the east, go deep into the province of Millam, deliberately expose flaws, let the enemy know that our army intends to intercept food, Ed will definitely send a large army to ambush, and the lord you will take a risk because of this, deliberately enter the encirclement, and then immediately withdraw to the east, we will wait for the ambush on the road, as soon as the chasing army arrives, the ambush will be exhausted, and at least one of the enemy's legions can be defeated!"

"But what if Ed learns wisely this time and isn't fooled? If he sees that there is fraud in our situation, instead of pursuing it, he directly leads the army to attack, then after the troops are divided into three ways, the number of frontal troops of our army will be much less, even if the strength of our soldiers is strong, in the face of three or four times the enemy, I am afraid that there will be heavy losses......" Gretel frowned, at first he felt that Xu Shu's attention was good, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the risk was too great.

Jia Xu suddenly raised his head: "Lord, I think this attention is good, but we still need to think about how to improve this plan!" ”

Xu Shu nodded: "The question now is, how can we convince the enemy that we really want to intercept the grain channel, not a scheme!" ”

"If our army deliberately showed a flaw, the enemy is likely to be suspicious, but what if we intercepted the news of the grain route, which Ed had worked so hard to find?" Jia Xu said slowly.

"Wenhe, you can make it clear, what a painstaking method...... Gretel asked eagerly.

At Xu Shu's suggestion, Jia Xu slowly had a rough plan in his heart, "My lord, here, I want you to cooperate with His Majesty the King and act in a play!" And this time, in order to ensure the rigorous execution of the plan, Joyce, your shadows will have to keep a close eye on the enemy's movements! If the plan fails, we can make adjustments in time! ”

In the afternoon, the Dark Night Purple Dragon landed in the main city of Moulton.

Antonio XIV, who had just eaten lunch and had not had time to rest, was pulled to the top of the main hall by Gretel's audience!

"General Gretel, is there anything important that you are in such a hurry to see this king?" As soon as Antonio saw Gretel, the sleepiness of the whole person immediately disappeared, and now he almost pressed the future of Custer on Gretel! The two of them are both prosperous and lossy!

Glitter clasped his hands into fists, "Your Majesty, the weather is warm, and the last general thinks it's time to attack and destroy Ed's traitors!" ”

Antonio nodded: "As for sending troops, you can completely plan the time and route by yourself, and this king fully supports it!" ”

Glitter raised his head: "Your Majesty, there will be a good plan in the end, which can reduce the strength of one of Ed's legions, come to report to Your Majesty, I hope Your Majesty will approve!" ”

A legion? Antonio's eyes lit up, "Come on!" ”

Glitter smiled slightly, and reported the way to cut off the grain to Antonio, Antonio nodded immediately after hearing it, "Gretel, the ambush strategy is very good, but you must observe the enemy's movements at any time, once Ed finds out that your plan is not successful, you must immediately retreat and merge with the ambush to reduce casualties." Also, General Gretel, since this king has entrusted you with all the military power, you can completely decide for yourself, and you don't have to think about me for this kind of thing in the future! ”

Glitter immediately agreed, and after a few polite words to Antonio again, he withdrew from the palace, ordered three thousand Central Plains light cavalry, and together with Zhao Yun, marched directly to the east of Lille Province!

Unbeknownst to Gray, just as Antonio retired from the main hall, one of the hall's guards immediately returned to his residence while the shift had changed, changed his clothes, and came to a shop in the main city of Moulton.

The man had only been in the shop for a short time, but he came out in a minute or two, and then made a great circle around the main city of Moulton before returning to the palace again! This person is very secretive, and when he goes back, he still carries some things in his hands, and no one notices his abnormality.

With Gretel's departure, the entire army of 100,000, along with 20,000 soldiers in Seoul, also began to march towards the northern province of Moulton.

Morton has already suffered several major battles in a row, and the people of this vast land can no longer bear more suffering! (To be continued.) )
