31. The Three Kingdoms killed the traitors
After relaxing his mood, Beirut's brows were twisted together, the current situation was still very difficult, the original sneak attack plan could only be terminated, and the rat people must have rearranged the defense line. Although he had long known that Thost had no good intentions, this did not prevent the two parties from cooperating, at least it weakened the power of the nezumi.
But now that this road is broken, the other one is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and it is his arrangement to leak the deployment of personnel and lead to the deterioration of the border situation. Had it not been for the continued vigilance of the Monza fortress, the whole plan would have been realized.
When working with a subtle and insidious villain, you don't need to calculate what you have to gain, but what you have to lose. He always felt that such a situation should also be within his expectations, so what was the purpose of his persecution? Is it really for the remnants of the troops directly under him? But what can the remaining 10,000 people change?
Come to think of this, Beirut seems to understand. He didn't want this group of troops, he wanted the psychology that we thought he would act according to the plan, so we haven't doubted him until now. If he had leaked or changed his plans, we wouldn't have had time to deal with it on the day of the incident. What's best for him? Of course, it's a lose-lose situation. As long as his brother is dead, and the minor nephew is only a puppet at best, he can hold the power and call on the rat people to avenge the king Khan, and when the time of victory is to depose a child and become the new king Khan.
By then, we will have lost so much here, and we will have no power to stop his actions, and we will have to bear the wrath of the nezumi revenge, which can be described as a complete loss.
Sure enough, the struggle of the royal family is the existence of eating people and not spitting out bones, and we are included in the circle, and then his brother will still go out in person, and we will still arrange the siege and annihilation according to his information, but what awaits us will not be an easy attack, but a cruel and bloody battle.
After figuring out all this, Beirut was finally in a good mood! Once he had a direction, he could arrange it, the victory would be his, and this time he would not miss it again, and the battle for the throne was far from over.
......
Yes, the second prince's speculation is not far from the whole one, but this army is not so useless as imagined, and Sivis urgently needs their protection now, at least with this army, his brother will not act at will. Now he has nightmares all night, and he is afraid that he will die before he succeeds, can you understand this feeling?
And with the revelation of Sost, Sives was more determined of his success, so he was anxious! He was afraid! He didn't want to die before he left the school! So the gospel came, and with the answer of the mysterious man, the big stone in Sives's heart also fell, and he was refreshed and could finally carry out the next plan.
Levst looked at the enemy camp in the distance and did not say anything for a long time, he had been trapped for several days, several breakthroughs were blocked by the enemy troops, although the fortress of Monza was strong and easy to defend, but the food and grass were almost exhausted, and if he didn't leave, he would only starve to death here. What's more, the situation in the royal court is unknown, and he has no intention of delaying it any longer, but at the moment, this impenetrable enemy army makes him really powerless.
He patted the corner of the wall angrily, in fact, as the largest fortress, the standing grain and grass were enough for 20,000 people to eat for a year, but the grain and grass here was actually transferred before the war, which led him to risk breaking through instead of sticking to and waiting for reinforcements.
But this morning's movement gave him a glimmer of hope, and he saw the sound of fierce fighting in the distance, as if a war had broken out in the camp. Could it be that the army of the royal court is coming? Soon, the battle spread to the besieging enemy army, and in a short time most of the troops were mobilized. It's just that Levst still didn't move, he couldn't be sure if it was the enemy's conspiracy, and as the situation intensified, he did it!
Immediately, the troops in the fortress were ready, and after burning the supplies, they began to break through to the enemy's weakest line of defense. The operation went unexpectedly well, but Levst was still relieved, and fortunately he captured a few prisoners, which solved his doubts. It turned out that the war just now was due to the sudden rebellion of the servant army, and they could only mobilize the besieging army to quell the rebellion, which gave the nezumi a chance to escape.
It's a pity that his emotion came a little early, there are at least a few checkpoints and enemy camps on the way from here to the royal court, and he must fight all the way out to get out of the predicament. So the expected resistance happened, but the desire to survive stimulated everyone's potential, and under the desperate attack, the enemy defenders were routed, and Levst broke through three lines of defense in one go, and it was not far from the royal court.
But just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, countless pursuers pounced again, and the tragic breakthrough battle began again. At this point in the battle, there were only more than 10,000 troops left that had broken through, and there were at least more than 10,000 pursuers who were sighted, and he didn't know if he could get out alive, maybe he would be loyal here.
The stalemate battlefield has long been covered with corpses, and the exhausted nezumi have fallen in batches, this battlefield is about to be their end, fate has not favored them, and death is still the final destination. Levst has already become a puzzle piece of the battlefield, in the first round of the enemy, he was attacked by the focus, even if he has the strength of the bronze three-star, but in front of the countless enemies who are flocking, there is only the result of desperate death.
But just when they were desperate, the enemy's rear came with the screams of battle, and the originally powerful pursuers were instantly confused. In this way, the remaining troops finally escaped the pursuit and quickly withdrew in the direction of the royal court.
On the high ground, Beirut rode his hound, looking blankly at the fleeing nezumi in all directions. This farce that he directed and acted in finally came to an end, and only more than 5,000 of the 20,000 ratmen who had been evacuated were left, and Levst also died on the battlefield.
Why is it different from the plan? Of course it's different! Since he already understands the other party's plan, then why should he be so polite, he should charge some interest first. Anyway, the villain didn't say how much he would go back, and it was interesting enough to leave some remnants for him.
......
With the arrival of the breakthrough troops, the royal court also knew the news of the enemy's rebellion, so Sipson was more confident in the success of the pro-campaign, but it was a pity that Levst died on the battlefield, which made him feel sorry for a while.
And Civis looked at the more than 5,000 people who had fled, and he was also extremely unhappy. However, he also knows the difficulty of the plan, and if he wants to deceive others, it is inevitable to pay a price. Anyway, it was enough to have someone to protect him, and now it was time for him to act again.
"Great King Khan, my subordinates have some immature suggestions, and I hope to get your advice. Through the report, Sivis went directly to the apse and was received by his brother alone.
This is also thanks to his recent performance and the advice at the conference, which has made his brother Cipson's impression of him a lot better, and this is the opportunity to be summoned alone: "My dear brother, I don't have to be so polite in private, is there any good proposal?"
"The subordinates don't dare, Wang Khan is the supreme in the world, even as a younger brother, he must abide by his duties and dare not offend authority. Cylvestis was still cautious, which made Sipson even more satisfied.
"Well, let's talk about your proposal, let me take a closer look!"
"Obey the order, my subordinates feel that our army can divide into two ways, one way to feint to attract attention, and the other way to launch a surprise attack behind the enemy, so that we will be able to win all battles and raise the prestige of King Khan!" the younger brother still bowed his head and said respectfully.
"Oh, tell me more!" immediately caught his attention.
"Now that the enemy's main camp is directly north of the royal court, we can pretend where to set up the decisive battle, and then arrange enough troops to attract their attention. On the other hand, the main force took a detour through the dense forest beside the Wadowa, which was blocked by the Sardinian River, but in fact there was a shoal, which was only one metre deep at this time, and could be crossed by the river and then reached the hinterland and attacked from behind. ”
"Is this true? are you sure?" Sipson was very skeptical of the so-called shoal, after all, he had never heard of a place where the Sardinian River could pass directly.
In fact, Sivis also discovered this secret by accident, because there are several branches there, and in the non-rainy season, due to the small amount of water in the river, the water level will naturally drop after being diverted. And this is on the other side of the dense forest, and it is also inaccessible on weekdays, so the possibility of being found is even smaller.
"The subordinates dare to vouch for their lives, if there is a problem, please punish Wang Khan!"
Looking at his sworn brother, Sipson finally let go of his doubts, thought about it and said in a deep voice: "Then who do you think should lead this army?"
Civis sneered slightly in his heart: "Of course, it should be led by the great King Khan himself, after all, this is the main force, which embodies the essence of our rat people." As the most powerful force, only the strongest can master it. This great merit can only be obtained by the greatest. So except for Wang Khan, no one has this qualification. ”
"Yes, yes, I'm happy with your proposal, but I still need to think about it!, you stand down!" Cipson was once again said with passion, and almost made a decision on the day. Fortunately, he also knew that war was not child's play, and he couldn't joke with his own life, so he had to find a few cronies to discuss it again.
It's not that he doesn't want to hold another court meeting, but after Sost's rebellion, he has long since lost trust in most of the others. If the shoal is real, then this victory rate can be greatly increased, so he does not dare to expose such an important secret to outsiders. But you can count on a group of smooth generals, it is better to expect sows to go up the tree!
