Selena promised Fenrir six rewards for success, and she also placed the other two Scout Cavalry squads at Fenrir's disposal. The trust in this www.biquge.info is more or less related to Selena's good impression of Fenrir, but Fenrir obviously does not appreciate it, this former knight and prince's confidant disdains this kind of mercenary small tasks, and his self-confidence is not blind.

Fenrir soon brought the first information to the Potato Mercenaries - the actual garrison of the three small cities was very small, and the Imperial army in the barracks was no less than 20,000. The 20,000 Imperial troops hiding behind the three small cities were the main force of the enemy in front of them, and the distance between the military camp and the small cities was much closer than expected. If the Duchy of Mageni wants to quickly take the three small cities with good fortifications, they may have to consider facing the 20,000 reinforcements.

Fed had already handed over the plan for a joint attack to the immovable Earl of Camhen, who had also said that he would reply to Fentry after a period of observation. Since the Southern Army was broken in this area half a month ago, Count Campham has become more cautious in his actions, and this caution certainly did not satisfy Count Endrida in the far away city of Dulum. In the eyes of the nobles in the rear, now is the best time to counterattack the Imperial Army, with the mercenary Guardian Regiment on the side, the Earl of Canheng, who has the advantage of troops, should never hold on to the spot.

"Based on the information we have obtained, we are enough to take the initiative to attack," Selena said with the information that Fenrir brought back on the third day, and there were not many defenders in the nearest enemy city to the three small cities, "We can't wait for Ludwig to bring us victory, we also need to fight back." ”

Vittorio agreed: "If we have our own chips, we can be more flexible in our negotiations with the Winter Nation in the future." ”

"But the whereabouts of the three mercenary groups, including the widow mercenary group, are still unknown..."

"I was afraid of wolves and tigers! How can I achieve a great cause in this way!" Noor was very dissatisfied with the timid and fearful Franklin, "We have the advantage of troops! Now is the best opportunity! If we wait any longer, the situation will change!"

Luca: "Then we should choose that barracks as a target? there must be Imperial Iron Cavalry there that will attack the Southern Army barracks head-on, if we can strike first..."

Ligu replied, "Then we can eliminate the superiority of the enemy's cavalry, right?"

Feder also thought so, cavalry can only exert power when it moves, and cavalry in the barracks is not much stronger than infantry. But the three small cities were like three solid walls, protecting the barracks in the center. Since the small garrison cannot be broken in a very short time, if you can take those three small cities like you did with Disha Castle, you may be able to decide the course of this battle.

As soon as Fid told the story of his victory at Disha Castle, Noor began to lament his past. It was at Desha Castle that he met Fidel, and then entered the world of mercenaries because of Feld. However, it is clear that there is no interest in Noor's past, and Vittorio thinks that the success of the raid on Desha Castle will be difficult to apply here.

"There are cavalry patrolling around the three cities day and night, and those cavalry are not inside the city, so even if you want to escape, you don't have to open the gates to cause danger," Vittorio wrote on the map "left, center, and right" to distinguish the three small cities in different locations, "and unlike the Disha Castle mentioned by Captain Fid, the left and right cities are not independent castles, but towns that house many civilians." Even if you manage to infiltrate a town, it is not easy to gain control of the town in a short period of time. ”

"Then what if you go around to the back of the three small cities and attack that barracks directly?"

"There are other risks associated with that, but the point is that we don't have enough intelligence to do this kind of stuff that puts us in the middle of the sandwich. ”

Noor said impatiently: "Actually, it doesn't have to be as complicated as the deputy warden said! Let's just swing Toto's ballista cart out of the small city! Those walls are still tall, but my small city must be scared to the ground! Even a frontal siege has an overwhelming advantage!" Noor's exaggerated rhetoric convinced the boy Moose standing behind Toto, but those walls are not something that can be crossed without the use of siege ladders.

Toto said confidently: "My ballista cart has been improved repeatedly, and the biggest advantage is that the firing range has been greatly increased! The Imperial troops that pursued it last time were all hit by my ballista cart when they first noticed that there was a ballista cart here!"

"Toto, I remember your ballista carts were loaded with gravel in their ammunition... That little rock is a bit of a threat to the cavalry, but it's against the walls..."

Toto patted his chest, but he didn't straighten up because of this, "There are several different types of ammunition, just to make my ballista cart work differently in different places!"

As long as the enemy does not have other unexpected reinforcements, it is not impossible to attack the city head-on. But the true main force of the Empire will certainly not be easily defeated, and those Imperial cavalry with considerable mobility will attack when they have a chance of victory, and retreat at will when they are out. But taking three small cities was a small victory – and Fide wanted a big one.

"That won't work, we must achieve more results," Fielder said with a rare stretch of heart, "and do everything we can to wipe out those 20,000 Imperial troops." After saying this, Feder suddenly felt a sadness, and Maev's dying face suddenly reappeared in Fett's mind - obviously on the verge of death, but Maeve, who could barely open her eyes, still had a trace of indifferent smile, which was the most indifferent smile Fed had ever seen, as if Mafu didn't care about her death at all, she only wanted to leave a good impression in front of Fed.

Perhaps it was Mave's persistence that touched Fidel, or perhaps it was Vittorio's ideals that had always been there, and Fede was really eager to use his strength to repel the Imperial Army of Eastern Oguna that had invaded the Duchy of Magini. Even if it threatens the potato mercenary group, this time it must be done.

The captains discussed strategic countermeasures overnight, and Selena personally reconnoitred the three cities to learn about the other weaknesses of the three small cities. The Earl of Camhen, for his part, only said that he would continue to wait and see, as if the old earl did not care about the passage of time, and was more patient than anyone else.

By the time it was almost dawn, Fed's eyes were bloodshot. Like a maid, Ayana enters the tent with some easy-to-swallow food, and only Vittorio, Patrick, and Toto are still debating what to do.

"How's it going?"

Ayana's soft inquiry brought Fid to his senses, and he took a small piece of soft bread, "The man in command of the 20,000 Imperial troops is proficient in the formation, and he not only has three small cities in front of him, but also has his cavalry patrol between the three cities and the military camp. The four locations echo and support each other, and at the back of the barracks is a small forest with a river next to it. ”

Ayana understood, "You're afraid that there might be an ambush on the other side of the forest and the river?"

"That's right, both Vittorio and Patrick think that this is a big possibility, and a commander who knows how to hold on with weak forces will certainly not fail to understand the truth of breaking things into pieces. ”

"And what about going a little farther away?"

"Not far from the forest there are some small villages that have been abandoned by the war, and there may be some baggage troops there, and it is unlikely that there are ambushes. However, taking too far a detour will allow our troops to fall into the encirclement of the other side at any time, after all, the other side is not blind. ”

Ayana put the basin down, and she looked at the marker that Vittorio had placed on the map. There are many cavalry markers scattered around the "left, center, and right" cities, and these constantly moving cavalry are like flowing water, protecting the creatures in the water.

Toto's eyes were already half-closed, and he couldn't help but say, "My head can't think anymore... Why don't you let the ballista wagons attack the city directly..."

Patrick was also struggling: "I still agree with Vega's suggestion, let the Earl of Campham besiege the 'right city' first, and when the cavalry of the imperial military camp gallops there, we will raid the military camp from the left side... The Count of Camhen could also have left the large army behind in case enemy reinforcements appeared... The rest of the matter doesn't need to be bothered at all..."

"If there were ambushes in that forest, and the barracks were prepared, we might be in the back of the enemy. Vittorio was also fighting his spirits, but he would rather think clearly than have a moment of peace in his sleep.

"The enemy does not add up to more than 30,000 men ... We and the Count of Camhen were overwhelming..."Patrick had long since forgotten what the Book of War taught because of his sleepiness, and Vittorio, who had come out of the Military Academy of the Peace Grave, of course, did not agree with Patrick and Toto's hasty decision.

Ayana glanced at Fidel, who was quietly thinking, "I used to follow the tracks of animals in the forest, and I would step on the footprints they left behind. This way it is sure to catch up with them and then attack them from behind. ”

Fidel didn't react for a moment, but when Ayana tore off a small piece of bread and put it in the cavalry markers, Fidel immediately realized what Ayana had reminded him.

At noon the next day, Selena gave Fenrir and Vega a new task, with Vega tasked with intercepting a small number of patrolling cavalrymen in one day and bringing their bodies back to the barracks. Fenrir was responsible for following Selena, donning the clothes of the robbed Imperial cavalry, and finding an opportunity to sneak into the route of the patrol cavalry after dark, pretending to be the Imperial patrol cavalry.

"Fenrir, according to the information you have investigated, the time and patrol route of those patrol cavalry are very clear, and it depends on whether we can make a difference if we can catch the 20,000 imperial troops hiding behind the small city!" Selena and Fenrir stood face to face, Fenrir was only a little taller than the slender and tall Selena.

"Commander Fei is really greedy, but as a camouflage unit, destroying the barracks as a vanguard... It's not difficult at all. ”

Selena couldn't help but laugh because of the arrogance of the other party, "It's very challenging to completely destroy the enemy. ”
