"Very well, Trist, you're presiding!"

Looking at the obedient generals, Downton was in a good mood, and finally understood why those men liked power, this kind of life and death taste was so wonderful.

Rather than being looked down upon everywhere in the Great Chapel, here all the people bowed their heads and offered the greatest awe to Downton!

"Yes, Trist, Bloodhammer, Black Hand, and Barty stay, and the rest of the men will return to the ministries and get ready for battle!"

Downton glanced at the time and approved of the battle plan they had made.

Syllable!

The generals stood on their heels together, saluted Downton, and then rushed out to find the soldiers and horses in order.

"How is the battlefield covered, can you ensure that when the steam airship lifts off, it will not be detected by enemy scouts?"

Downton looked at the map and didn't look up.

"The enemy's scouts have been squeezed thirty miles away by the Drow Ranger!"

Trist is very confident, on this continent, as a sentinel, the dark elves consider themselves second, and no one dares to admit the first, especially night battles, it is simply a nightmare for the enemy.

"Blood Hammer, Barty, the battle has begun, I need your ogre regiment to assault in these directions and cut off the rescue of the enemy army to the headquarters!"

"No problem!"

Looking at the coordinates drawn by Downton on the map, the blood mallet hurriedly wrote it down, and at the same time patted his chest to reassure.

"Black Hand, you are mainly attacking the enemy headquarters, can you do it?" Downton looked into the Black Hand's eyes.

"I'm invincible!"

The king of the hill stood proudly, and the heavy cavalry was naturally the best type of troops to use to charge into battle, so he had no interest in killing those miscellaneous soldiers.

"Very good, I'm arranging a five-thousand-man ogre elite to command you!"

Downton hesitated, but decided to add weight. After all, only by taking the command headquarters can the enemy army be in chaos all the time and maximize the results as much as possible.

This important task should be given to the barbarian corps, but unfortunately they have not yet arrived, so it can only be given to the ogre.

"Hmm!"

The black hand did not refuse. He would not describe the bravery of the dwarves in words, he had already decided not to give those ogres any chance to show their faces, the head of the enemy commander was their dwarf.

"Master, loot ......"

The blood mallet didn't hold back and asked.

For the natives of the hills, who have been living on the brink of starvation and death, they are not afraid of war, even if they do not have any spoils. Those corpses can also be used as food reserves, of course, if they can be motivated, they will naturally be more vigorous.

"It was informed, according to custom, that in addition to the reward, the soldiers could keep twenty percent of the trophies, the regiment with the most outstanding achievements. You can get 30%!"

Downton didn't fight for the spoils of war, but for some supplies. How much can it be worth, if it can win the hearts of soldiers, let them have a sense of belonging, and fight to the death, then it will be worth it.

It was only after becoming the Hand of the King that Downton understood. Money is something that is burned, and land and population are the most valuable things, and they can generate value in a steady stream.

"Maybe. You can fight the Samosai land reparation!"

Downton didn't tell his subordinates, he still had a more ambitious vision, this war was different from the last time, he didn't have to leave the air force at the end and wait for the turnaround, he could smash it as soon as he came up.

Killing the enemy's vanguard in the fastest time, showing his strength, coupled with the commercial cooperation with Sissi, will definitely get Maximilian II to intervene in the war.

Samosai is Downton's touchstone, whether it can gain a foothold in the north depends on this time, once the decadence is revealed, those neighboring countries will definitely bite like maned dogs that smell blood.

The Drow Ranger was originally a rotation system, and after Downton gave the order for a night attack, they immediately regrouped, under the command of their own 100 commanders, like tuna, pouring out of the nest under the cover of the night to cover the battlefield.

When the whole army is dispatched, it will definitely not be able to hide from the enemy, but every extra minute you fight, you will have an extra chance of winning!

The originally quiet Frankfurt barracks were like monsters that had suddenly woken up, and groups of heavily armed soldiers rushed out of the camp gate and marched towards the enemy camp.

The soldiers who belonged to the ragtag army complained that they only wanted to save their lives, of course, they were taking the opportunity to pick up some loot, and as for fighting desperately, they didn't even think about it.

In the past, the chief turned a blind eye and let himself go, but this time it was different, the eyes of the hundred people were like lone wolves, and anyone who complained about the impact on morale directly waved the horsewhip and whipped it.

"I tell you, you want to eat and wait for death, Lao Tzu doesn't want to, now the Duke of Downton is fighting in the north, and he needs manpower, if he is outstanding, he will definitely be promoted, this is a good opportunity to become a nobleman, if anyone stands in the way of Lao Tzu, don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite." ”

The centurion knows more than these soldiers, Downton has killed so many nobles, and the remaining void naturally needs to be filled by the upstarts who are loyal to him, and besides, the new king ascends the throne, and the first thing to grasp is definitely military power.

Commanders at all levels are holding their breath and want to make military achievements and seek promotion, so they have an urgent desire to fight.

"Get out of the way, don't get in the way of Lao Tzu!"

The soldiers pursed their lips and cursed in a low voice, but soon, they lost their minds, because other legions rushed up and forcibly overtook them.

"The reward is said to be very heavy, and you can keep the spoils of war privately, hehe, you can send a windfall. ”

"That is, even ogres can get so many rewards and spoils, aren't we as good as a group of natives?"

"Speed up the march, this time it's going to be a big one!"

This is a human soldier who belongs to the elite main army, they are highly motivated, well-equipped, and naturally full of confidence.

"What's the hurry, rush to the market to send death and reincarnation!"

The miscellaneous army was already at odds with them, and when they saw this scene, they were even more dissatisfied.

"Trash!"

The elites spat loudly, if it weren't for the military situation, they would have to beat these guys.

"Attention, attention, a hundred meters ahead, Lord Duke is inspecting, cheer me up!"

The herald rode his war horse, running back and forth. A loud reminder.

A huge handsome banner was unfurled in the night wind, and because it was embroidered with magic rune cloth, it was still bright and dazzling in the dark night.

"Salute!"

Every time a thousand-person team walked by, there would be a roar from the chief, and then there would be a salute in unison.

"Good morale!"

Riding a scorching nightmare, Downton stood on the side of the road and saluted back. While nodding with satisfaction, several main corps had a good appearance.

Since taking power, Downton has recruited many senior military priests in addition to training, and has begun to instill honor and discipline in the soldiers, letting them know that they are fighting for their families and country.

Of course, Downton did not forget the generous salary, and all the officers who dared to be deducted were hanged in public. There is not a single room for it.

Although the military orders were strict and the training was very hard, the salary was very sufficient, and it was much better than before, so the soldiers were content with the status quo.

For officers, Downton also has a lot of methods, exchanging military achievements for noble titles, plus those rumors deliberately spread by Abagon, but all officers with a little ambition are waiting to do a big job. Become his descendant.

"Give me a little faster, this time it's a battle that will determine the ownership of the ace division. Give me courage!"

"Nothing can be said to let those natives grab this number!"

The 10,000 captains also rode war horses to patrol their subordinates, gritting their teeth and fighting.

What is an ace division? It is a corps that can be given preferential treatment in military spending, equipment, staffing, etc., and becoming this kind of division is Downton's descendant, and it has great power, so several tens of thousands of commanders saw that they could not make the Duke change the mentality of the main battle. It's also out of the way.

"Look at the sky!"

An exclamation of surprise rang out, and the soldiers looked up to see the Ancient Spear as the lead, followed by twenty steam airships, flying through the sky in a goose-wing formation.

The airship has red magic headlights hanging on it. Twinkle and shine.

"If you do this, it will be easy for the enemy to see!"

Trist was worried, he was actually planning to let the airship rise directly into the air, use the clouds to cover it, and then make a vertical surprise and bombard.

"But morale is also important!"

Downton believed in the rangers' ability to expel them, and as he expected, the appearance of the battleship caused the soldiers to cheer one after another, and finally joined together.

A battleship is absolute force, and it is a heavyweight weight that determines the balance of war!

The Samosai barracks, brightly lit.

"General, none of the sixth, ninth, and seventeenth squad scouts have returned!"

The commander of the thousand people found the general and told him about the situation.

"Damn, those Drow Ranger are really in trouble!"

The general was depressed and wanted to vomit blood, but he was already mentally prepared for this casualty number, his scouts were all elites selected at various levels, but in the face of those dark elves, as long as they ran into it, it would be a total annihilation.

"Will there be any problems with the other party suddenly increasing the intensity of the sweep?"

The thousand people are very cautious.

"What can be the problem? Pull out the sentry as much as possible, and let us be deaf and blind? Don't worry, there has just been a report from the rear that Downton has offended Prince Gouri this morning. ”

The general calmed his subordinates.

"What? the Prince of Wigan with the nickname of the Iron Warrior?"

Thousands of people grew up happy.

"Yes, Frankfurt won't be able to bounce for a few days. ”

He didn't believe that the other side had the courage to attack at night on a large scale, and now that their forces were tight, they would definitely face off for a few days, and after seeing their own advance, they would immediately shrink their defenses.

"I always feel ......"

Thousands of people are still not at ease.

"Even if they attack at night, they will be able to kill more than 200,000 of us? The general snorted coldly, "If I were Downton, I would definitely run to Bavaria for help as soon as possible!"

Not only the general disdainful, the atmosphere of the whole camp is very relaxed, Frankfurt was originally ranked in the middle of the third-rate countries, and now it has experienced a civil ~ war, it is estimated that the national strength has declined early, and the other side is the top three Samosai, no matter how you think, this is a war that must be won.

Come to think of it, if it weren't for the inevitable victory, the King of Samosai would not have risked offending Bavaria and annexed Frankfurt. (To be continued......)
