The grand strategy of the coalition is extremely perfect, but no matter how good the strategy is, someone must implement it to succeed, so the responsibility of directing the troops to attack the Kalhan area fell on Kafka's Imperial Marshal Manstein.

Manstein, the first person in Kafka's imperial military, known as the imperial military god, has been living in the army for more than forty years since he was twenty years old, and his ability, experience, prestige, etc. can be called the strongest in the empire, so the heavy responsibility of attacking the Kalhan area naturally fell on him.

Led more than seven or eight Sky Cities into the Calhan region, Manstein, who was in the city of Gruel, gathered all the important generals and all the important city lords to deploy the strategic plan together.

"The terrain of the Calhan Plains is not conducive to ground warfare, so our next goal is to first sweep the entire area on a large scale, destroy as much of the demonic force as possible, and prepare us to capture and defend the city. ”

In the huge conference hall, Marshal Manstein stood in front of a strategic map, and among the people seated were generals and city lords, and everyone was looking at him, and everyone was listening carefully to every word he said.

"In order to achieve this goal, I will divide the troops into three groups, each of which will be ......"

After that, Manstein began to issue orders to adjust the army according to the deployment that had been prepared, and when this military meeting was over, the army was in full swing.

According to the judgment of the coalition military headquarters, the biggest difficulty in occupying the Kalhan area is not to attack, but how to defend after capturing one city after another, because it is not difficult to occupy the cities in the Kalhan area with the air power of the coalition army, but once the cities are occupied, the coalition forces must be stationed in these cities, otherwise it will not be long before the demons will reappear in the cities.

But once the coalition forces settle in the city, then there will inevitably be a ground conflict with the demons, which is the most troublesome place.

The Calhan region is a large plain, the alliance can't find any topography advantage in this area, every city on the plain is equivalent to a lonely city standing on the grass, once the coalition forces settle in, they will face the counterattack of demons from all directions, every city is like this, so it is not difficult to occupy the cities in the Calhan area, if you keep these cities in your hands, it is the real difficulty.

Marshal Manstein's strategy was to sweep the demons first, to eliminate the demons' living force to the greatest extent, and then occupy the city.

This will make it relatively easy to capture and defend.

Some people may ask, the number of demons is endless, so even if all the demons in the Calhan area are cleared, it won't be long before new demons will appear, and then the coalition forces will still face huge defensive pressure.

It is true that no matter how many demons are killed, they will reappear, but don't forget, if the demons in the Calhan area can be cleaned up temporarily, then even if the demons will appear in the future, before the new demons appear, the coalition forces can at least get a respite, and take this opportunity to repair and strengthen the captured cities, so that the pressure on defense will inevitably be reduced a lot.

So after that, the troops under Manstein's command were dispatched.

"What? Occupy three cities?"

In Thunder Eagle City, Rocky, who was standing in front of the sand table, turned his head to look at Lilia suddenly, and asked with a frown: "Are you sure?"

"That's what the intelligence says. ”

Shaking the information in her hand, Lilia said that these were all battle situations provided by the Shadow Alliance's intelligence.

Frowning, Rocky had no choice but to look back at the sand table, and then planted three small flags on the three cities in the Kalhan area.

These three cities are the three cities occupied by Marshal Manstein's army, and he previously divided the army into three armies, each of which occupied a city, which was nothing, but what made Lodge extremely puzzled was that these cities occupied by Manstein were not on the edge of the Kalhan region, but Forte in the entire region, which can be said to be the three cities in the most central part of the entire region.

It's weird, no, it's a failure!

Of course, Lodge did not know Goodley's tactics, but he knew that if Goodley captured the city on the edge of the Calhan area, then it meant that he intended to start from the edge and launch an offensive step by step into the entire Calhan Plain.

But what is Manstein doing now, he actually occupies the city of Forte in the Calhan region?!

The Calhan region is a great plain, and the city in Forte is completely isolated, once the city in this position is occupied, it is equivalent to letting all the troops fall into the demon surrounding, and the three cities will face the never-ending attack of the demon!

As the Imperial Marshal, how could Manstein make such a bad decision, was he planning to drag the army into a quagmire of tug-of-war with the demons?

Looking at the sand table with a frown, Rocky couldn't figure out why Manstein did this, it was too a failure, the old marshal's strategy was too failed, why would the prestigious Marshal Manstein make such a bad decision......

"Karina and Berg have any news lately, where are the two of them now, and have they gone to the Calhan area with the main force?"

After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't understand why Manstein made such a mistake, so Lodge simply stopped thinking about it and asked about Karina and Berg instead.

"I just contacted last week, and you can rest assured that neither of them has followed the army. ”

"Since Lingyu City in Berg is a trading city, it has now been confirmed that it will be stationed in the Marta region, and it is estimated that it will not participate in the war in the future. ”

"As for Karina, because she participated in the battle spirit of Marta City, she also attacked many times in the process of occupying the Marta area, so she is being repaired, and she will not be assigned a new mission until the adjustment is completed. ”

Since both Karina and Berg were involved in the counteroffensive and were on the front lines, they were in constant contact with Rocky, so Lilia was well aware of their whereabouts.

After listening to her words, Rocky breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't care much about other people, but he was very concerned about the safety of his two good friends, after all, with his current situation, there were only these two people who could make him 100% trusted, so after learning about Manstein's actions, he first thought of Karina and Berg, for fear that the two of them would be implicated because of Manstein's wrong decision.

Fortunately, neither of them was on the battlefield, so Rocky was not worried, but he was still very concerned about the battle in the Culhan area, so he had been paying attention to the battle report ahead for the next few days.

As he had imagined, Manstein was caught in a tug-of-war with the demons after capturing three cities......!
