Fed's rebels followed Mary and Lazrov away, and the two of them still didn't give up on rescuing Leon, but Vittorio stayed. www.biquge.info Vittorio no longer looked depressed after returning to the city of Fonta, he immediately took out all the funds stored in the bank, and sent someone to close his shop in the Duchy of Magini and exchange it for gold coins that could be used immediately. Vittorio gave all the money to the Potato Mercenaries, and he didn't explain to Fidel why he did it, but Fidel could sense the determination.

The others didn't say anything to Vittorio either, the rebels suspected that Vittorio killed Ufus, the others suspected that Fid killed the old duke, they were all questioned people anyway, and having an extra rich companion was not a bad thing. Lukka even held a welcome dinner after Jasmine and Selena returned, including Vittorio, who welcomed the return, and even Reeves, who had been handling logistics in the Dulog City, also arrived, and he also brought a piece of information.

"Count Endrida seems to have made contact with the Duchy of Dlamain and the Papal States, and the Dulumber City is an important border city of the Duchy of Mageni, if Count Endrida chooses to fall to other principalities, it will definitely have a chain reaction. When Fide learned of this, he immediately held an emergency meeting to discuss what to do with the potato mercenary group.

Most of his subordinates were in favor of continuing to support the Southern Army and support Miss Maevie, but everyone was more or less worried, "Commander, we wanted to gain a foothold in this principality before, but we didn't expect that the Principality of Mageni would not even be able to stand firm on its own, and it was about to fall... Did we make the wrong choice?"

"Commander Feide, the power of the Southern Army is not strong, and the invading army of the East Oguna Empire will soon be driven straight in, let's think about our own back path, after all, we are a mercenary group, and we have no obligations..."

"Commander, the strength we have worked so hard to accumulate must not be buried with the Duchy of Mageni, even if we return to the Western Oguna Empire, I think it is a rational choice... I heard that the West Oguna Empire and the East Oguna Empire reached an agreement to extend the peace..."

All the captains who expressed their support for the Southern Army would add a "but" after it, and Vittorio was clearly very unhappy standing on the sidelines, the teenager who wanted to protect the land did not speak, and Feder said what Vittorio wanted to hear.

"Our pact with Lady Eli and Maeve is not over, and we are not sure to lose this war. ”

Fidel then told the crowd about his vision, which was a shadow of Ludwig's previous strategy against the Duchy of Magini - sending light cavalry to cut off the supply lines of the regular army and isolate the cities of the northern defense. Fidel told his men that he believed that the invading forces of the Eastern Oguna Empire would soon be left alone, that they had gone too far into the Duchy of Magini, that the battle lines were extremely long, and that the supply lines connecting them would have to pass through rough and difficult terrain. The rocky region is home to numerous bandits and bandits, one of whom is the Rock Bandits, who have been in contact with the Fidels.

"The reason why the Southern Army and the regular army of the Duchy did not find this out was precisely because they did not dare to easily bypass the main force of the Imperial invading army, and no one had the courage to do so. The outnumbered Imperial Army swooped down like a large net, but with a large number of troops, there would be a situation where one could be taken care of, so someone had to step up and break through the invading army's lines and cut off their supply lines from behind. Selena was the first to learn about Feyde's intentions.

"The Winter Army is tight and orderly, and their command has not made any strategic mistakes," Patrick said, standing next to the map, having read a lot of military books since becoming the captain of the mercenaries, "Although their army is not as strong as the invasion army of the East Oguna Empire, it is very difficult to cut off their supply lines. ”

"That's why we should be aiming back to the east. ”

Lukka slapped his palm with his fist, "That makes sense! those captured eastern cities will surely have a lot of people who are trying to resist the invaders, maybe they can encourage them to help us create chaos after the invaders continue to advance!"

Toto said, "Then my siege weapons will not be of use..."Standing beside Toto was the boy Moose, who had not seen each other for many days, and the other party was no longer as shy as he had been, but began to think about strategy and tactics like Toto.

"Your ballista carts can also be used in field battles," Jasmine patted Toto on the shoulder, "If we cut off the supply lines of the Imperial Army, then their main frontal force will be demoralized!

Fidel's proposal was unanimously approved by all his subordinates. The Potato Mercenary Regiment is now a mercenary regiment with a cavalry squadron as the main force, so it is obviously very suitable for the Potato Mercenary Regiment to carry out guerrilla attacks, sneak attacks around the rear, and harassment against the enemy. The more than 100,000 imperial invading troops that have entered from the territory of the East Oguna Empire are difficult to defeat in the frontal battlefield, and it is impossible for a mercenary group to contribute much, but it is a good choice to attack the back of the enemy's long battle line. Fidel wanted to hear Vittorio's opinion, but Vittorio simply agreed, as if he had other plans in mind.

"The Winter Army is not something we can handle," Feder recalls Ludwig's eccentric man, "the mercenary group of the three mercenary unions that suddenly appeared on the border could also be a variable, but we also need to do what we can to help Mave's Southern Army." ”

"Yes!

Over the next three days, a detailed strategic analysis began within the Potato Mercenary Group. Fidel also sent another letter to Maev, first revoking the previous proposal to divert the attack of the Southern Army, and then telling Maev about his plan to attack the supply lines of the Imperial invading army and agitate for the occupied cities.

With less than 3,000 men in total, more than half of whom are cavalry, they are indeed capable of shouldering the core tasks of this strategy with their considerable mobility. Feder also took the initiative to ask Maev to give them this task to complete. Reeves was assigned back to the Dugi City to begin recruiting new recruits and transferring some of the assets of the Potato Mercenary Regiment to the peaceful Duchy of Deramain.

"If Mary and Lazrov were still around, they might be better suited than we are to do what the people of the city are doing," Fide said at the evening meeting, "and there must be many people who are willing to stand up against the invaders, and we need their strength." ”

No one took the initiative to take on this task, only Vittorio replied loudly: "Leave this matter to me, I can find a way to infiltrate those captured cities." ”

"If you enter as a merchant, you may be 'ransacked' by the Imperial Army. Jasmine said half-jokingly.

Luca: "I have a lot of confidence in Vittorio, he is a native of the Duchy of Magini, and he has also served as a rebel, maybe some of the rebels will support us instead!

Fide and Vittorio looked at each other, but the other party did not dodge in the slightest, "Alright, this task will be handed over to you." ”

"The time I'm away may reduce my correspondence with you, but rest assured, I'll do my best to get it done. Vittorio may have his own plans, but Fett believes that the other party's plans are not harmful to the potato mercenary group, and Vittorio will not betray him, because Fett has already felt that the other party has become his companion.

Maev's reply came quickly, and there were two replies, one was written by Mafu when she received Fed's first suggestion, but before the letter could be delivered, Fed's second suggestion was sent to her. Maeve and the nobles around her apparently also did not agree to go far away and attack the Winter Army in the northern part of the Duchy of Mageni, and they were helpless against the powerful Imperial Invasion Army. The strategy given by the Potato Mercenary Regiment was immediately adopted by the commanders of the Southern Army, who said that they would send a part of the cavalry to assist Fidel, and with the cavalry squadron of the Potato Mercenary Regiment, the number could reach 3,000 men. These 3,000 cavalry troops could be the key to changing the tide of the war, and if they could keep the more than 100,000 imperial invading troops who had invaded the heart of the Duchy of Mageni hungry, it would be considered a great success.

At the end of the letter, Mave wrote: Field, Viscount Lawrence, and some nobles have the idea of breaking away from the Duchy of Mageni and supporting themselves with troops. They won't do that when I object, but I also feel more or less that the Duchy of Magini has lost hope for the future. If I join them too, will you support me?

The western nobles will be the first to defect from the Duchy of Magini, while the eastern and northern lords will be the losers to be defeated by the invaders. Only the nobles of the southern part of the duchy still hugged each other tightly, building up armies against the invaders and fighting to defend their territory. Even if he one day broke away from the Duchy of Magini, it was only a way to protect himself.

And the invasion army of the East Oguna Empire will definitely give up the plan to attack the southern nobles after the southern army becomes independent, and they, like the Winter Army, are aiming at the Black Swamp City, which has lost its master. It is the core road connecting the center of the continent, and obtaining Black Swamp City and the surrounding area is equivalent to gaining an eye on the continent, which will have a very big impact on the future confrontation between the two great powers of the Kosai Kingdom and the East Oguna Empire. After all, these two countries are not good friends, and there are still unresolved grievances between them, and they have just stopped attacking each other, which may make the Duchy of Magini their second battlefield.

"Ayana," Fed, noticing that the other party wanted to peek at the letter from Maev, "do you have a way to contact the Rock Thieves?"

"Yes, but the Rock Thieves have always made it a priority to protect themselves. ”

"We need their help," Fidel said as he handed the letter to Ayana, "What do you think about what Maev is considering?"

"Why don't you marry Maev. ”
