Chapter 580: Extrapolations in Western Europe
In the past two weeks, the mood in Western Europe has been very bad!
Since more than ten days ago, a mist has been rising here in Ebilis. Although it was a foggy early winter, it was not very common for it to last so many days.
And then what made Western Europe even more annoyed was that the fog was getting bigger and bigger, and today, even the line of sight is less than ten meters!
This is very disadvantageous to them who are besieging Ebilis!
The imperial capital, Ebilisi, covers an area of 300 li! More than 100,000 people besieged such a large city, and it is obviously difficult to do it all. Add in today's foggy days......
This is exactly what Western Europe is annoyed about!
Moreover, in the hearts of Western Europe, there is always a faint sense of indescribable foreboding......
So these days, a large number of scouts have been sent by Western Europe to scout every corner of Ebilis all the time.
However, the loss of 4,000 scouts in 10 days! No one can bear this kind of loss......
From the third day of the fog, the enemy, who had been holding on to Ebilis without any action, suddenly began to sneak out of the city and attack the armies of Western Europe as if they had taken the opportunity to attack!
And every time they "dip and go". No greed!
Every general of the Western European armies is in a state of tension every day. I'm afraid that the enemy troops defending the city will take advantage of the fog to abscond!
In the course of two weeks, the non-stop sneak attack took advantage of the fog to give Western Europe a great headache! Moreover, this strategy of Giggs was completely nowhere to be found, and the direction of their sneak attack could hardly be found!
In two weeks, three thousand soldiers were lost and four thousand scouts were lost!
Not even a single living enemy has been caught, which makes Western Europe and others have nothing to do for a while......
Fifty miles west of Ebilis. The location of the account in Western Europe.
"I have enlarged the encirclement of Ebilis, as you have commanded, and divided the army of 160,000 into 160,000 brigades, each of which is ten miles apart, and is stationed fifteen miles around Ebilis. Only the west gate was left undefended. "Greg, the general of Western Europe, is reporting to work.
"Well, that's good. Inside the big tent, Western Europe, who was covered in blood-red armor, nodded gloomily.
During this period of time, no one dared to risk the wrath of the Western European adults and openly contradict him. Even Kony and Peso, two people who are not very convinced of Western Europe, are silent.
There is no other reason. It was in these two weeks that Western Europe had executed three generals in a decisive manner......
Although this practice of "cutting the generals before the battle" in Western Europe has been opposed by many people, the two great masters around Western Europe, Paul and Iron Hook, who are the executors, can completely ignore that set! As long as the Western European adults give the order, then no general will be able to live until tomorrow!
And these generals who were executed were all people who lost because they were attacked by Giggs this time in a foggy day!
A small mistake can make or break the tide of the war! It is understandable for Western Europe to do so.
"Summing up the losses of these three days. The Western European language is concise, and the voice is cold.
"Yes, Lord Marshal!" was still Greg.
As the closest general in Western Europe, Greg still has the complete trust of Western Europe at the critical moment!
"In the past three days, our side has been attacked 33 times, with the loss of nearly 4,000 people. Among them, there are three thousand horsemen and eleven hundred-riders. The enemy mainly carried out sneak attacks around the south and east gates, and the main lineup was composed of archers and cavalry. However, due to the sneak attack and the dense fog environment, the enemy's losses were very small, and it should be less than a thousand people. After Greg finished speaking, he saluted and sat down.
"Hiss~"
There was a gasp of gasping in the tent. They knew that the enemy had taken advantage of the fog to sneak up on them. But I never imagined that the number of sneak attacks would be as high as 33 times! And the losses of both sides would be so large!
At this time, a common problem came to mind, that is, if the dense fog continued, this battle could not be fought......
"Let's share your opinions. After hearing this, Western Europe's expression did not change. It is impossible for a qualified commander-in-chief to show a gaffe in the face of such a loss.
"Western European generals. "It was Kony, the most disagreeable general in Western Europe, who spoke. Since he was appointed commander-in-chief by the director of the Wenlai family to fight Western Europe, Kony has not once called Western Europe a "marshal".
"Speak. "Western Europe is polite.
"In these thirty-three sneak attacks, Giggs always attacked around the east and south gates, obviously trying to consume the troops in those two places, I suspect that they just want to break out from those two sides! Kandal's army is still a week away, and I am sure that within this week, Giggs will have a big operation!" Kony said with a serious face. Apparently he said everything he had analyzed.
No matter how infighting he and Western Europe were, both of them had a common goal, and that was Giggs!
"I agree with General Kony!" said Biso, who had a good relationship with Kony, the leader of the infantry regiment in the Western European armies.
"Giggs is about to move within a week! And the targets must be the south gate and the east gate! This kind of weather is also the weather suitable for breaking through! So I also suggest that the defense of the south gate and the east gate be strengthened!"
Hearing the suggestion of the two men, Western Europe stepped forward, his right hand caressing his left arm, revealing a deep groan.
This is a customary action in Western Europe. The left arm of his red armor was also polished much brighter by Western Europe than elsewhere.
This blood-red full-body armor in Western Europe is the standard armor of the strongest legion of the Wenlai family, the "Blood Shirts", and it is the command armor of the Blood Shirts!
The blood-red metal is made from the "blood-red steel" unique to the Wenlai family. The blood-red armor of Western Europe is covered with obscure magic runes, and at a glance, you can see that it not only has strong physical defense, but also has good magical protection. The mark on the chest represents the emblem of the Blood Shirts!
A cedar tree, two black spears, crossed inside a palm-sized circular emblem!
A blood-red armor, very fitting, not bloated at all. And this blood color also brought a breath of iron-blooded to Western Europe's handsome face!
However, there was no one involved in this war, the strongest army of the Wenlai family, the Blood Shirts.
"Do you have any other ideas?" said Western Europe, who pondered for a long time, glancing at the many generals in the tent.
"My lord, I have something to say. "It was Cook who spoke.
Cook was the leader of Northern Selangor's pursuit of the "Icewind Fox". Someone who has no record but has been unusually promoted by Western Europe.
The reason why Kony and Peso are full of Western Europe is also one of the reasons!
Say. Theo nodded.
"Do you think this fog is too weird?" Cook looked stunned and thoughtful when he saw everyone, including the Western European adults and people.
"In the city of Ebilis, there are only 150,000 to 170,000 men under the command of Giggs, and there are 210,000 in our army alone! But we ignore the other army under the command of Giggs! I want to ask the generals, out of our 210,000 people, there are 200 magicians?" Cook's words made everyone stunned again.
"You mean...... This fog is ...... Human!?" Kony realistically disagreed.
"How is this possible!" everyone shook their heads at the bold conjecture.
Only Western Europe listened attentively! And he stopped his habitual action of stroking his arms......
I only heard Cook say again: "Although I am a Western European adult, but in this kind of war, the tracking skills I am good at are not suitable for leading troops." But it was precisely because I didn't lead the troops and didn't participate in such an intuitive battle that it gave me time to think. “
"Although the fog area of hundreds of miles sounds like it can't be artificial, but don't forget, Agus, it's a real water magician! Although Giggs's magician group is a fire master, the simple water fog-making magic is still very simple! If my guess is right, then there are at least fifteen hundred people in Abilis! Among them, there is also the water system superior magic guide saint, Agus!" Cook's words finally made everyone change color!
"Then according to you, what are they making fog for?" said one of the generals, puzzled.
"It's very simple, built to break through! But their direction, it's not for me to know. With that, Cook turned his gaze to Lord Western Europe.
At this time, Western Europe did not look at anyone, but looked at the military map on the wall and fell into deep thought.
Cook's words made everyone present talk.
There are those who agree, those who oppose, and those who feel incredible, and everyone agrees.
However, while everyone was talking in the tent, a series of explosions woke everyone up!
"Boom, boom, boom, boom......"
"What!?"
"What's going on!?"
"This is!?"
All the generals suddenly got up and rushed out of the tent! The fastest was the Western European guard, Paul!
And the explosions didn't stop there. In the distance, another flurry of ......
This scene made all the generals who were discussing here at a loss, completely unaware of what was going on!
West Gate, because it is the headquarters of the Western European commander, so 40,000 soldiers are stationed here, but there is no explosion here......
Western Europe's face was full of surprise and uncertainty! Playing against Ryan Giggs really made him feel like he had nowhere to start!
Half an hour later, the two horsemen galloped in! Panicked......
"What's going on!?" a grumpy Greg asked, grabbing one of the scouts and shouting angrily.
"My lord, my lord from the west and west, three armies from the east, south, and north broke through the gates, and took advantage of the fog to launch a surprise attack!" cried one of the scouts.
"What!?" the generals gathered around.
"Numbers, numbers!" Kony's face changed dramatically, and he also drank.
"The fog is too heavy to know the number of enemy troops, but it is certain that there are at least 10,000 thousand! and, and ......," the scout stammered, apparently frightened!
"Speak quickly!"
"And before they raided, they used 3,000 horses with explosives to clear the way and charge straight at our army! The 3rd, 4th, 9th, 10th, 13th, and 14th brigades suffered heavy losses! The other brigades are supporting!" The two scouts came from the north and south gates respectively.
However, just when everyone asked, the deputy general of the East Gate, who was the farthest away, also rushed in!
However, exactly the same situation is happening at the same time in three gates......
"Tell me more about the South Gate and the North Gate. At this time, Western Europe said calmly. His indifference also gave the three scouts some confidence.
"Yes, Marshal. The situation of the three gates is exactly the same, they are all cavalry, and they are all explosives and horses to open the way! Judging from their rapid raids, they are all ready to break through!" replied the scout.
"My lord, this ......" Greg listened, with an anxious look on his face. For this situation, Greg also did not know how to deal with it......
"Greg, lead the 20,000 infantry here to support the North Gate as quickly as possible. Inform the other two gates, and garrison them with all their might, and all the forces on their side are gathered in one place. Ten miles forward, stationed five miles away from Ebilis. If the enemy army has broken through, tell my generals, don't pursue, continue to defend the gates!"
However, at this time, Kony suddenly stood out from the crowd. rhetoric fiercely against Western Europe.
"Western Europe! Are you going to let Giggs go!? I don't agree with your assignment! I said at the beginning that Giggs's goal is to disrupt the south gate, and although he has three gates to disturb our army's sight, in the final analysis, he still has to break through the south gate! You let Greg lead his troops to support the north gate? What if Giggs wants to break through at the south gate?" Kony was obviously very excited.
He thinks that there is something very wrong with the scheme of Western Europe!
"Whoosh!"
As soon as Kony's words fell, the iron hook appeared in front of Kony, looking at him with a cold face! If Kony was so rude again, it was very likely that the next second, blood would be splattered here......
"Hula......"
After seeing the action of the iron hook, some of the generals who were good friends with Kony, as well as those powerful guards, all swarmed around Kony, looking at the iron hook with fierce eyes!
At this time, Paul saw that the momentum was not right, and he also appeared beside the iron hook in an instant, staring at the generals with an expressionless face.
Hearing Kony's skeptics, Western Europe was unmoved. Instead, he simply put his hands behind his back and looked leisurely.
Seeing this move in Western Europe, Kony was also a little hesitant in his heart.
"Hmph, if Giggs runs away, you have to give us an explanation! Go! Support the South Gate!" After saying that, he took General Biso and other people who applauded, and went straight to the south gate.
Looking at Kony's figure, a faint sneer appeared on the corner of Western Europe's mouth......
But just then, a scout came running from the north again!
But when Western Europe saw the clothes he was wearing, he was shocked......
Because that person is the costume of the Kandal Regiment in Northern Selangor!
"Marshal Xi, our army has already set off from Kanbu City four days ago. It is expected to arrive in Ebilisi three days early. By now Marshal Kandal should be a day away from the Mordo Mountains. The person said respectfully.
He had no idea what was going on here in Ebilis. In his opinion, it is quite reasonable to have a battle of this magnitude. It's just that he is strange that the fog here is ......
However, after hearing the words of the liaison of the Kandal Legion, he was shaken and fell into an ice cellar......
Now Western Europe has finally understood Giggs's overall plan! And has guessed Giggs's real purpose! And he is 100 percent sure! That is......
Kandal Legion!
The dense fog has given Giggs countless conveniences! Western Europe has no guess at all how many people can take advantage of the chaos to get out of the city after 33 sneak attacks! But what he can be sure of is that Giggs did not think of escaping!
It was only at this point that Western Europe understood the horror of Giggs.
In such a desperate situation, you can still choose to take the initiative! In this world, there is only Giggs......
This is Simon's territory, so Giggs's news must be much more detailed and accurate than his own! Giggs must have gotten the news of Kandal's march before! After that, Giggs fogged up......
All of this seems so reasonable! So Giggs's goal must be Kandal!
To the east is the "Poison Zhang's Swamp", and although there is a commercial road, it is not suitable for a fast march, it is too dangerous there. Not suitable for breakouts.
To the south is the "South Sea Hill and the South Sea Plain", and the port of Kuyt can be reached in 800 miles, but the terrain there is too flat, and Giggs must have known that the Holy See of Light has arrangements there! After all, there is no army of the Holy See of Light surrounding here!
To the west is the "Forest of Saidra". Although this is a very suitable place to break out, it is garrisoned by its own army! Although the dense forest will slow down the pursuers, their own speed cannot be fast, and once they are dragged by their own army, plus the support of other armies, it is difficult to escape. This side is also very adventurous.
And the last north, by Kandal's army on the road!
The mountains are wide and long, and the way down the mountain, that is, Kandal's uphill, is very difficult, which also provides the best ambush spot for Giggs to ambush Kandal!
And most importantly, it's very much in line with Ryan Giggs's tenacious character!
The route that no one thought of was the route that Giggs wanted to break through!
Surrounded by the army of Kandal in the north, it seems impossible to choose the path, but Giggs is so elusive!
In the end, coupled with the sacrifice of so many horses to cover the last enemy army on the road, then the south is no longer the best direction to break through at a gallop!
So, the north, is the only option for Giggs!
Western Europe also fully understands another point.
If you go straight to the Modo Mountains in the north with your pursuers now and chase Giggs, it is very likely that you will be reinforced!
Finally, in case ...... Giggs pushed himself back and stayed in the city of Ebilis?
Giggs's hand really made Western Europe unfathomable!
"It deserves to be the 'god of war'......" Western Europe sighed in his heart.
Let's end up here......
"Greg, lead an army of 30,000 to sweep the south, east, and north gates in turn, and end the battle here as quickly as possible! ”
In desperation, Western Europe can only end what is happening here first......
