Chapter 908: Swinging Strategy
Eventually, Miles arrives at Koster, and before he can rest, he is assigned by Benjamin again.
"I need the most detailed information from the Kingdom Army!"
The breach of the Crussard Gate did change the situation of the Kingdom of Horry to a great extent, but it did not necessarily change the Church's intention to attack because of this. Calculating the distance, the Kingdom Army may be able to kill Koster in a few days, and this is the most urgent problem they need to face at the moment.
He needed more information—even if they had decided to retreat.
And Miles is a precious resource that cannot be wasted, and must be used well. Benjamin was even a little sorry, if he had been there last time the church attacked, and the intelligence was sufficient, the losses of the Black Nightmare Army would definitely not be as heavy as they are now.
In this way, the people were sent out, and Benjamin took a deep breath and stood on the city wall and thought for a long time. Suddenly, he summoned the few remaining Wood knights of the Black Nightmares.
"You should have heard about the incident at the Crusade Gate, right?"
Several knights seemed to hesitate when they heard this, but they nodded anyway.
Seeing this, Benjamin then spoke: "Including the Duke of Elizabeth, the entire army of Wood is now stationed in the gate. Do you want to go there?"
Suddenly, the knights became more hesitant.
"We ......"
"You don't have to worry about the situation here. Benjamin smiled and said, "Anyway, you are going to abandon the city and move, and it doesn't matter if you leave." Besides, that's your head of the house, and it makes sense to go back and serve her, and I won't be angry. ”
Hearing this, several knights glanced at each other. Eventually, several people bowed their heads together.
“...... Thank you, sir, it is the honor of our lives to be able to fight side by side with you. ”
Benjamin smiled and shook his head.
"Then you should set out as soon as possible, lest the situation change and you will not be able to leave. As he spoke, he took a letter from his pocket and handed it to the knights, "Besides, when you set out, take this letter with you and give it to the Duke of Elizabeth with your own hands." ”
The knight at the front put the letter away and nodded, "We understand. ”
Then they turned and left the city. And Benjamin looked at the back of their departure, and his heart was a little settled.
Perhaps this was also within the calculations of the Duke of Colin, but ...... Still, he decided to unite with the Wood family.
The two sides were allies and had common enemies, and the Dark Nightmare were in such a terrible situation, so it was only natural that they had to use everything they could use. At the very least, if Elizabeth was willing to send troops to the rescue, they might not have to give up on Coster.
- It's a pity to give up such a good territory.
"I think you'd better slip away. The system scoffed at his idea, "Where are they in time? The church is almost there, and the Cruzard gate is so far away." When they sent reinforcements, the daylilies were cold. ”
"With the rune defense array, we can still drag it out. Benjamin replied in his heart, "What's more, they can outflank the rear of the kingdom army, cut off the enemy's supplies, and force the church to attack with all its might, and Koster will not be able to defend it." ”
"With such a complex strategy, you want to explain it clearly with a letter?"
Benjamin shook his head helplessly.
Basins of cold water poured down, and he didn't bother to argue with the system anymore. There is no doubt that calling for help is certainly a viable alternative. He ordered this option, and at the same time prepared to retreat, which can be called the best plan at the moment.
Half a day later.
"How long will it take for the team to get to Koster?"
As the sun set, the Kingdom Army had to find a place to set up camp. Grant looked at the afterglow in the sky and suddenly asked.
The bishop hurriedly replied, "One day! one day at most." Don't worry, Your Majesty, by this time tomorrow, we will surely have arrived at Koster, surrounded that group of rebels, and killed all of them!"
Grant, however, seemed a little displeased, and his gaze slanted.
"I'm not asking about us. ”
When the bishop heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then he came back to his senses, lowered his voice and said, "This ...... It's all been arranged, and they will arrive at the same time as us, and we can guarantee that the Black Nightmare Army will not be able to run away no matter where it goes. ”
As if at last he had heard a satisfactory answer, Grant nodded and turned back to the tent.
The bishop followed suit.
In the tent stood soldiers who had just arrived from Crewe. They had the intelligence of another army, and at the moment they looked a little frightened, and when they saw the Pope enter, they couldn't help but shudder, and they moved extremely quickly, and one by one they knelt down on one knee.
"His Majesty the Pope......"
Grant waved his hand, looking at a fairly stable mood: "The loss of the Crusade gate can't be considered your fault, and I won't pursue it for this." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Pope!" the soldiers rushed to report as if they had been granted amnesty, "the matter is ...... Here's the thing, there must be a mole inside the gate! There must be a mole, taking advantage of the night, suddenly the gate was opened, and then a group of mages rushed in! We people couldn't resist at all, and in the end, only a few of us escaped......"
Grant's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Is the mole ......?"
The bishop on the side picked up another key piece of information and asked, "How many mages are there?"
"At least three digits!" replied the soldier, "we don't know the exact number, but after taking the gates, they took the town of Crewe, and then stationed there, and the whole army looked like tens of thousands......!"
Hearing his words, Grant and the bishop both turned pale in unison. Then the bishop suddenly reacted that the pressure was too great for him and for His Majesty the Pope!
Grant, on the other hand, still grim and silent, seemed to be thinking about something.
The bishop and the soldiers could only wait cautiously to the sidelines, carefully observing the changes in Grant's expression, ready to react at any time. Who knows if His Majesty the Pope will suddenly decide to kill two people to vent his anger, or suddenly make an unwise decision on impulse? Especially the bishop, for the sake of the future of the Church, he has to stabilize His Majesty's emotions, and his spirit is even more intense.
Your Majesty...... What exactly do you say when you finish your meditation?
They were in fear for about five minutes, and finally, Grant stopped thinking and looked up.
"What people!"
At that moment, he turned his head to look out of the window of the tent, and flew out with a whoosh under the stunned gazes of the others. ()
