Chapter 616: Belan's Army Leaves
If you go outside, you must first settle inside.
When he was on Earth, Luo Ming, like thousands of people in that era, took this sentence as a typical laughing stock.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with the words themselves, but if a certain chairman uses them at an inopportune time, it will naturally cause serious consequences.
or pacify, or kill, or unite...... When an external enemy is in close proximity, it is indeed necessary to eliminate excessive internal opposition in order to gather strength and resolutely resist.
But any means need to have sufficient preconditions for their successful implementation.
It was a great failure on Earth, but not now.
The nobles who had taken refuge in the Callo Mountains had already revered Luo Ming as their alliance leader, and had a happy cooperation with him.
Even if they confront him, they are just arguing about how to divide the interests, and they are fighting a war of words, and they will not use their troops - even if they dare to fight, Luo Ming's military strength can easily crush them.
As a result, "Annei" has become a very low-risk and low-difficulty job.
"Why don't you fight?"
"Now is the right time, if you don't assault at this time, when will you stay?"
"The army attacked, first crushed the defenders, swept away the rebellion, and then pursued the main force, and then it was a great success!"
Several nobles shouted and incited.
Looking at them, the corners of Luo Ming's mouth twitched.
I remember that before the crossing, there happened to be a popular word on the Internet, how to say it?
By the way, it is the "army red deer"! It can only assault, except for the assault, it is a trick assault, changing the direction of the assault, looking for a suitable opportunity to assault, and if there is no suitable opportunity, you must also find and create an opportunity to assault. What defense, what war of attrition, none exists.
This unhealthy trend must not be allowed to spread!
Luo Ming coughed dryly, and finally quieted the conference room.
"You say you want to attack, you want to fight, and you shout more and more cheerfully...... Then let me ask you, how much military strength do we have now?"
This question made them hesitate for a moment, especially Luo Ming's tone, which was obviously not pleasant, and they thought for a moment before they began to answer.
"You can always come up with three thousand mobile troops after removing the defenders?" asked the young baron.
"Yes, three thousand can be taken. But you have to think about one thing. Luo Ming frowned and said, "How many of them are phalanx infantry, and how can they get past those damn trenches and earthen walls and still keep the array in order?"
Without the array, their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced, and the lives of my soldiers are also lives, and if we want them to shed blood and sacrifice, they must fight with a chance of victory, not die in vain.
And once you are defeated in the field, do you think you will be unharmed? Or do you want to be deserters?"
His breath was long, only a slight pause, and then he continued: "How do you know that Beran's main force must have left? Is there anyone left behind as an ambush, will they all be lurking nearby?
Hearing this, feeling Luo Ming's cold gaze, the nobles who were originally fiercely seeking to fight calmed down a little.
With victory after victory, Login's authority has taken root in the hearts of the people, and now this silence is proof of that.
However, he didn't intend to really make a statement - even if the other party's speech was not influential, as long as they could speak, people would be a little less resentful, and subconsciously regarded the final outcome of the meeting as a "collective decision" or even "their own decision".
At this time, a baron suddenly spoke: "The whole army is attacking, one is insufficient strength, the other is too risky, or we send a small force to test and harass, and the rear will be met with a large force, so that there should not be too many losses, and we can spy on the enemy's reality, what do you think?"
"That's not bad, let's arrange this later. Luo Ming praised frankly, for such pertinent advice, it is necessary to encourage a lot.
Several of the nobles looked at the baron suspiciously, but the baron was unaware of it, and was only excited that his suggestion had been affirmed by Lomin.
Luo Ming occasionally used nursery to guide their opinions, and this matter was more or less noticed.
But in fact, this time it was really not childcare.
Although meat eaters are despised, many nobles still know a little bit of military knowledge to a greater or lesser extent, and they can't say anything "wonderful", but it is still possible to give pertinent advice.
——————————————
Yamaguchi Line.
Vytautas brought only one attendant, dressed in the very ordinary garb of a petty officer in Belan, unpretentious, and walked behind the line as if he were strolling casually, occasionally scolding the lazy ones who did their work.
Although this line of defense was almost 300 meters away from the stronghold on the mountain, even the hit rate of heavy arquebuses at this distance had to be reduced to about 2 percent, and the bow and arrow could not shoot so far, and if he was lucky enough to shoot it, it would not be lethal, but he still did not dare to be careless.
During this period of war, although he had only glimpsed Luo Ming from afar, he had already fully realized the difficulty of the other party in several rounds of games.
The wisdom and cunning of the other party are no less than their own, and the conditions are still excessive......
Vytautas went out with nearly seven hundred men, and so far he had lost nearly a hundred, leaving exactly six hundred and three.
In addition to him, three other military commanders were left behind, leading a total of about 1,100 soldiers to take charge of the broken rear.
In addition to this, almost a thousand cannon fodder leading the way party was left.
The rest of the Belt-Leader Party left with the main army, which had left Vanshee County with the main force of Beran to support the main battlefield.
Of course, because Vytautas had the strongest military and had a good relationship with Zagmer, he was appointed temporary commander in charge of the other two thousand one thousand men.
Adding up all the strength under his hands, there are 2,700 people, which can be regarded as the reward of the drill camp during this period of time, which has made the strength grow a lot.
But let's not mention whether his military leaders will be obedient......
Look at Luo Ming again, his current military strength may have 4,000 people, as well as the strong city artillery and the support of tens of thousands of people behind him, and he has won consecutive battles, his morale is booming, and he is united.
If it is really fought, the two sides will not be able to compare, and if the opponent does not encounter a huge mistake, then the only thing Vitautas can do is to hide in the defensive line and defend.
There is a fear in this world, a fear of the unknown.
Vytautas's fear of Lomin, on the contrary, is another.
It was precisely because he knew Luo Ming's wisdom and ability very well that his fear of Luo Ming kept pouring out, and he couldn't stop at all.
The two are somewhat similar, but the strength in their hands is very different.
How dare Vytautas be careless in this situation!
