"What... What?sea... Naval battles?" Jason's eyes widened

"Yes!" Doro nodded, and said honestly: "Mars said that the northern orcs are mostly land-based, and they are less accustomed to water, and the empire must fortify on the banks of the Rhine, and send the Storm Legion to the inland rivers to help, and they can reach the port of Marghera in less than two weeks, and then give them a head-on attack when the orcs cross the river!"

After saying this, Kane and Jason couldn't help but laugh and looked at each other as if they had a heart. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After doing it for a long time, this guy is purely confused!

It's true that the orcs are not good at water warfare, but the Rhine River is not wide all the way, and the width of several narrow bends is only a few tens of meters, and it is not impossible to cross it.

It is true that the Storm Legion is good at water warfare, but it is fighting against the Tides on the sea, and the warships of the people are all set according to the standard of naval warfare mode, and the inland rivers cannot move at all, so how can they rush to the aid by water?

"Uh... What's wrong?" seemed to see that the two of them had the wrong expressions, and Dole wondered

"The Empire will send the Stormwind Legion, but it will only go inland, and their ships are sea ships, and inland rivers can't go," Jason explained indifferently

"Yes, they'll come to the Ngualla Corridor, and then bypass the eastern part of the Cachino Mountains and send troops directly to the Dragon Canyon, at least three months later, don't expect them to be good for a while. Kane added.

Jason looked up, glanced at Kane in some surprise, and suddenly asked, "Do you think so too?"

Just as an ordinary discussion, Kane didn't take it to heart, frowned and thought for a while, took out a soup spoon and dipped it in some soup, sketched a few strokes on the table, and continued: "According to the current situation of the empire, it will take at least two weeks for the nearby lords, regular armies, and reserves to arrive at the Rhine, but it has been three weeks since the orcs invaded the southern border, and according to their marching speed, it is estimated that their vanguard will be able to reach the north of the Rhine River in the next few days." ”

"At this time, the Empire simply can't pull up an effective defensive line, so I think the Empire will inevitably send a force north of the riverbank to stop the vanguard of the orcs... The most likely to be deployed is the army here in the heights of Carmen in the eastern part of the province of Aino, which is used for the reserves that were originally trained and transferred to the Northern Army, after all, they are now the most suitable combat corps. ”

There is a recruit training military area in the heights of Carmen, which is a reserve corps dedicated to the early training of the Northern Army, where recruits are recruited every year for intensive training and then transferred to the Cachino Fortress.

Kane was only communicating with Jason purely for the sake of discussion, but he didn't expect that his simple words would make the two people sitting in front of him stunned.

"Uh, what's the problem?" After a long while, seeing that there was no sound in front of him, he raised his head and saw the strange faces of the two, Kane hurriedly asked

"All... I guessed it all right..."Luo Yan was the first to be surprised

After a pause, she shouted at Jason: "Wow, Jason, he actually guessed all right, much better than you, the top students of the Saint Laurent Military Academy are different!"

Kane obviously didn't understand what was going on, and he was surprised, "Did something happen?"

Jason also came back to his senses at this time, he looked up and looked at Kane deeply, and then spoke: "That's right, your strategic guess is completely correct. ”

After a pause, he continued: "The Empire has ordered Lieutenant General Krees to lead 30,000 reserves on the heights of Carmen to the north of the Rhine River three days ago to establish a blocking position to block the orcs, and the detailed military information announcement is estimated to be released by tomorrow evening at the latest. ”

Kane's expression moved, and he hurriedly said: "North of the riverside, then the blocking point is in the Plains of Honor..."

"Sunset Valley!" Jason replied with certainty

Located at the junction of the provinces of Aino and Snots, the Sunset Valley is the last pass where the mountains turn to the plains.

"That's exactly what happened," Kane sighed, frowning

"Do you think the Empire can win this time?" Jason continued

“... It's hard to say..."Kane frowned and thought carefully for a while, shook his head and said: "The reserve training time is too short, although Lieutenant General Krees is good at playing defensive battles, but the location of the valley mouth of Sunset Valley is dozens of miles wide, and it is impossible for only 30,000 people to pull up an effective defense line in these dozens of miles, and if the troops are scattered, the orcs only need to choose a random place to easily break through, and then destroy the new force on both sides or continue to go south." ”

The Empire's fortification of the Rhine at this time is already a foregone conclusion, if this legion cannot stop the pace of the main orcs, then the next battlefield will evolve into a battle for the Rhine, which will definitely have a serious impact on the subsequent deployment of the Empire.

For a moment, Jason's face was also much more solemn, and he then asked, "You mean, the empire will be defeated?"

"It's not all..."Kane frowned and said, "But to be honest, I personally think that Lieutenant General Kress is actually not suitable for this battle, if he is given three times the number of troops, maybe he can hold the valley like an iron bucket, no general in the empire will be better than the Iron Shield, but he has too few sergeants in his hands, and this battle will definitely be lost if he is defended!"

After a pause, he continued: "I think the only possibility of victory is to take the initiative and fight a decisive battle!"

"Take the initiative?" Dorr exclaimed in surprise, "Are you crazy?, face the orcs head-on in the plains, and rely on a reserve that has been trained for less than two months?!"

It's not to blame Dole's attitude, it's just that Kane's idea is indeed too bizarre.

Orcs who have always been known for their strength are not afraid of any race on the frontal battlefield, and any commander on the continent will only choose to use various tactical coordination with the help of effective forms in the battle against them, and if it is a straightforward frontal charge, a 10,000-strong orc army can defeat 30,000 of the best Imperial soldiers.

Kane also knew that his strategic thinking was too contrary to common sense, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as a fantasy, so he did not continue the topic.

Maybe... The Empire is also ready for the subsequent battle for the Rhine, and now the veteran Krees is rushing to the front line just to delay time as much as possible, and exchange time for space.

Jason, on the other hand, frowned slightly and fell into deep thought, he didn't believe in Kane's strategic thinking from the bottom of his heart, and if he changed the time period, he would even think that the other party was just a straw bag in vain.

But not long ago, when he was discussing a topic with his father, he had heard similar words, and it was not his father who said this, but his grandfather, the Count of Reis, the Lion of the Empire, who was more strategically discerning than his father!

Coming out of the cafeteria, Kane went to the post office, and as time went on, the Empire's communications had been largely restored, and two weeks earlier Kane had sent a letter to the interior to see if there had been a reply.

His home is in the middle of the province of Aino, south of the Rhine, since the empire is fortified on the Rhine, then the province of Aino will not be all slaughtered, the family should be safe for now, at most to accept some refugees and the like, and his father has always had a good reputation, and the town of Autumn Leaves is vast and rich, so there will not be much change.

"Kane-Heratle?well, here's your letter, take it!"

Happily taking the letter, Kane looked at the date on the postmark, which happened to have arrived this afternoon.

I couldn't wait to open the letter and glanced at it hurriedly, and as expected, the house was in a hurry.

However, except for worrying about him, nothing bad happened, and after a quick glance to confirm that the family was indeed safe, he was completely relieved, put the letter back in his pocket, and took it back to read it carefully.

Back in the dormitory, Kane didn't go back to his room, but instead went to Zone 3, where Mutter and their dormitory were.

After being incorporated into the Carlos Legion, because of the different types of troops, everyone was separated, Mut and they were incorporated into the 2nd Regiment of the Carlos Army, and out of the care of their companions, Chou Xili was also incorporated into the 2nd Regiment of the Army Mage, only Kane was pulled out to form a separate army because of his identity as a swordsman.

"Are you serious, old man, are you really going to abandon us?" Mut's loud voice was heard from afar, and Kane was slightly stunned when he walked around the corner of the hallway and saw the scene at the door of the dormitory.

I saw Karl carrying a huge bag and walking out with a black face, while Mutt and Troy stood by helplessly, as if they were trying to persuade something.
