Chapter 157: Carnaston Raiders 7
"Brother, do you miss me?" Sophie stood in front of Qin Feng, staring at Qin Feng with big eyes. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Forehead......" Qin Feng was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses and looked surprised. You... How did you come back so quickly? I'm thinking you'll not be back until tomorrow at the earliest. ”
"People miss my brother." The little girl pouted and squeezed. "My brother doesn't feel sorry for me at all, and let people run so far to help you do things."
"Uh..."Qin Feng was a little dumbfounded for a while. He needs the Minotaur troops to defend the fortress, so naturally there must be a hero to bring the troops. Because of the possibility of war with Lacardon at any time, Jason, as the hero who commanded the main force of the crusade, naturally couldn't leave easily, so he had to let the little girl run.
"Sophie, you're back just in time. Jason, do what I just commanded! Tune in 500 marksmen and 200 crusaders to capture the city of Carnaston! Qin Feng paused after speaking, and then said: "It's better for you to take the troops with you, after occupying the city, arrange the soldiers to defend, and you will rush back as soon as possible." ”
The fortress was nearly two hundred kilometers from the city of Carnaston, and Rakkaden set out from the city in the morning, and could not reach the vicinity of the fortress until at least tomorrow night or the morning after tomorrow. The flying troops were many times faster than they could on foot, and if all went well, Jason would be back at the fort tomorrow at noon.
"Yes." Seeing that Qin Feng had already made up his mind, Jason stopped persuading. With the addition of 2,000 Minotaur troops, it is irrelevant to the outcome of the entire battle to transfer hundreds of marksmen and crusaders to occupy the main city of Lakaden. But if the final battle is over, it would also be a great credit that they captured the city of Carnaston in the first place.
After Jason left, the matter of arranging the defense of the fortress could only be done by Qin Feng himself. The Canaston Fortress was originally established to defend the Kasia side, although the walls on its north and south sides were the same height, but the defensive facilities and city defense equipment such as the arrow tower were almost all on the south wall of the fortress, which undoubtedly added some difficulty to Qin Feng to defend the fortress. And when he occupied the fortress, there was not much left of the equipment used for defense, and he regretted not bringing Stallone with him. When defending the city, ranged troops play a big role, and you must know that Stallone's skills and special skills increase the marksman's attack power a lot.
Fortunately, Qin Feng has room for jade pendants, the logistics materials of the army have always been carried by him alone, the reserves of food and weapons are massive, and he even took dozens of crossbow carts, which just came in handy at this time. Lakaden does not have such an 'artifact' as the jade pendant, and the supply of more than 40,000 soldiers is also quite troublesome to transport, and the halberdiers under his command are used as transport teams. If it is to attack the fortress, it is mainly relied on marksmen and crusaders.
Standing on the wall of the fortress, Qin Feng looked in the direction of Carnaston for a long time, this battle, I don't know how many families in Kasia have to bear the pain of the death of their relatives, he kept cursing Lakaden in his heart. Sophie had been standing by his side, and when she saw Qin Feng's solemn face looking at the distance, she was a little worried about Qin Feng in her heart. "Brother, why don't you speak? Are you worried about the next war? Don't worry, we're going to beat the scoundrel Lacarden. ”
Qin Feng was pulled back to reality by Sophie's words, and pinched the little girl's bun face dotingly. "Hey... I'm just thinking that after this battle, our casualties in Kasia will definitely be very large, and I don't know how many families will lose their loved ones. ”
"This Lakaden is really hateful, and when we catch him, we must cut him with a thousand knives."
Looking at Sophie's gritted teeth, Qin Feng felt a little funny. The little girl is like this, and there is really no deterrent at all. "That's a good idea, let you cut the first knife first."
Sophie's little face suddenly turned pale, and she waved her hand again and again. "No... I don't want to...."
The little girl's frightened expression made Qin Feng feel distressed for a while, and she regretted making such a joke with her, so she hurriedly hugged Sophie in her arms and patted her fragrant shoulder to comfort her. "Okay, okay, brother, kidding you..."
After a long while, Sophie gently pushed Qin Feng away with a red face. "Brother, you are necrotic, deliberately scaring people."
Qin Feng looked at Sophie with some amusement. "I didn't expect you to be so cowardly, you're a hero."
Sophie was suddenly a little unhappy, and glared at Qin Feng with big eyes dissatisfied.
Seeing that the little girl was a little angry, Qin Feng hurriedly stopped laughing and continued the topic just now with a pretending to be serious. "Among the hosts, it is not easy to capture Rakkaden!"
"My brother is right, hey... It would be nice to catch Rakkaden as the culprit directly..."Sophie also sighed.
"So, our casualties ......" Qin Feng was halfway through his words and suddenly stopped. He looked at Sophie in surprise, picked up the little girl, and spun it around a few times before putting it down. "Sophie, my brother really loves you to death, you are so smart!"
"I... I really love my brother too..."Sophie blushed and ran down the wall.
Qin Feng: "......"
Sophie's words woke up Qin Feng at once, and he didn't expect such a simple truth to capture the king first. Sun Tzu admired the way of military warfare of "winning with coincidence", which is to win the war with the smallest sacrifice. I've always been thinking about how to defeat Lakaden head-on, but I've forgotten to make a surprise move.
Since he had to "capture the king" first, it was natural to lure Lakaden out of his main force, and with Lakaden's cautious character, it was unlikely that he would succeed. However, since Qin Feng has this idea, it can be regarded as a tactical progress. Besides, maybe it's small doesn't mean that there is no chance at all, as long as you plan it properly, maybe you can catch a big fish like Lakaden.
Qin Feng began to use his brain, trying to recall the battles in Chinese history in which the weak defeated the strong, and the thief captured the king first. There are countless examples of the weak defeating the strong, and the battle of 'capturing the king' is not very famous, and the largest battle of 'capturing the king' that Qin Feng can think of should be the battle of Tumubao during the Ming Dynasty. Although the battle of Tumubao was nominally a personal expedition by Ming Yingzong, the person who commanded the troops at that time was indeed Wang Zhen, the eunuch favored by Ming Yingzong. It was also this Wang Zhen who fell for the trick of the leader of Warat Yexian to lure the enemy, and even Ming Yingzong was captured alive, and Wang Zhen was beaten to death by the guard general Fan Zhong when he fled for his life in a hurry. The Ming army had no command center, collapsed, and the 500,000-strong army was annihilated.
Looks like I should think of a trick to lure the enemy too. Qin Feng began to rack his brains and think about how to lure Rakkaden. (To be continued.) )
