Chapter 187: Turning the Tiger Away from the Mountain
After O'Harden led the flight team to a successful landing, he handed the letter to Felicia.
Felicia took the letter and went into the tent, and then opened the envelope, and when she saw that it was a large number, she quickly took a book out and rummaged through it.
Soon a real letter was translated, and this is also the method that Su Lin came up with, which was to find two identical books, one for each of them, and replace the page number position of the word with a number, and then find it out.
In the letter, Surin said that he would send a fake food convoy to Jebeldan, and only after attracting their attention would he let her set off with the convoy.
Immediately, Felicia called the leaders of the various teams together and announced the next order: "O'Harden, you divide the flying team into two teams, one with us and the other with Carl, Carl, you set off with a fake food convoy"
The next day, Karl set off with a convoy of food as bait, although it was only bait, but there were thousands of wagons, and the escorts were more than 10,000 people, and O'Harden also went with several flying teams.
Looking at these people who left, Felicia was also very sad in her heart, the purpose of these people was to let the people of the church find out, and the worst result was that the whole army would be wiped out, but she still hoped that they would survive.
In the days that followed, Felicia had the rest of the flying team keep an eye on the enemy forces in the southwest to see what they were doing.
Before you know it, it's December, a season characterized by cold and heavy rainfall.
Su Lin stood on the balcony, looking at the pouring rain outside, and his heart was full of feelings, at this time, Amanda should be about to give birth, and he should have been by her side, but now he is thousands of miles away from her.
While he was in a daze, Gru walked in and said, "Your Majesty, the king has believed in it. β
Surin commanded as he watched, "Get to the sidewalk below." β
"Understood"
At this time, in the palace of Victor, Shi'an, Debi, Lilos and others were standing outside the door with anxious faces, and there were bursts of Amanda screams from inside the house.
Shi'an said anxiously while dangling outside the door: "Why hasn't she given birth yet, Lilos, why don't you say she hasn't given birth yet?"
"I don't know, I didn't give birth. β
"You'd better be quiet, I'm dizzy. β
After a while, they heard a baby's cry coming from inside, and several of them rushed in.
Seeing a witch holding a baby in her hand, they hurriedly walked over to take a look, and found that it was a very cute child, with a round face and flesh, and they wanted to reach out and pinch it.
Debbie teased and asked, "Boy or girl?"
"Girl"
Just when they thought it was over, suddenly Amanda screamed again, and the witch's voice instantly rang out: "There is also a child." β
Then everyone started to get busy again.
With sweat on her forehead, Amanda looked at them and asked, "How's it going?"
Debi and the others hugged the child to her and smiled by the way: "It's two girls." β
Looking at these two lovely daughters, Amanda also smiled.
Khairy has led his troops to the east of Banhard, and it is believed that the siege of Banhard will be completed in a few weeks.
After winter, the rainy days also increased, and he had to let his troops brave the rain, but this also caused many soldiers to fall ill and there was a non-combat attrition.
Listening to the non-stop rain outside, his mood was also annoyed, there was no news from the church, and he didn't know if the grain delivery team that intercepted Logo was not.
"Your Highness, something happened, the troops of Qiufeng Town have been attacked" A guard rushed in with an anxious face.
"How many are there this time? ten, hundred?"
Now that his troops were under attack almost every day, he had become accustomed to it for a long time.
After the guard breathed a sigh of relief, he reported again: "Your Highness, it is more than 100,000 people, and now it has launched five or six attacks on the troops of Qiufeng Town, our troops have suffered heavy casualties, and the other party's offensive is very fierce, as if they want to capture Qiufeng Town." β
Hearing this, Kaili also came to the side of the map, looking at Qiufeng Town on the map, you must know that there are 200,000 troops there, which can form a counterweight to the northeast of Banhad, and now the enemy army is storming there, there must be some purpose.
With the continuous search, Carey finally found some problems, that is, the location of Qiufeng Town, and Jebeldan is on the same level, if the grain transport team really spares a large circle to take the road of Jebeldan, then Qiufeng Town will be their must pass.
After thinking about this, Carey finally understood why the enemy army would storm Qiufeng Town, in order to open the way for the grain delivery team to enter Banhard.
He immediately ordered the two closest troops to Qiufeng Town to be quickly reinforced, and the vanguard troops defended on the spot.
Mekji has also been very depressed lately, and he has sent scouts on both routes, but there is still no news of the grain convoy.
Just then a guard stepped out and handed over a letter.
After that, Mekji found out that it was Khairy who wrote it, saying that the grain transport team would take the route of Jebeldan, and that he should be ready to intercept.
Upon hearing the news, Mekji sent a large number of scouts along this route, and was also ready to lead the cavalry to intercept the grain convoy.
A few days later, scouts finally reported that they had spotted an enemy aerial flight near Motril, and Mekji immediately chased after him with tens of thousands of cavalry.
However, after a few days of wandering around Motril, and finding no sign of the grain convoy, Mekji had to continue his journey north.
On this day, they came to a small town, and when they saw the people in the town, they were frightened by their tens of thousands of cavalry.
Seeing this, Mekji also looked at everyone and smiled: "Don't be afraid, I just want to ask you a few questions." β
At this time, the mayor of the town, a gray-haired old man, walked out and asked respectfully: "My lord, if you have any questions, just ask, I know that I will definitely answer." β
"Very well, have you seen a convoy of grain coming through here lately?" Mekji asked expectantly.
"Nope. β
"No?"
Hearing this answer, Mekji's eyes flashed with doubt, wondering if the old man was lying to himself.
Just as he was hesitating, a young boy suddenly stood up and said, "I saw that grain convoy, near the GΓΌlen Mountains. β
Mekji asked, "How long has it been?"
"Half a month ago, when I went there to hunt, I met a giant dragon flying through the sky in the past few days. β
After getting some news, Mekji knew why the scouts couldn't find the grain caravan, it turned out that they were walking by the mountains, more than a hundred kilometers away from here, and the local dragon appeared here on purpose, making us think that the grain convoy was also here, but in fact, it is estimated that it should be near Jebeldam now.
Thinking of this, Mekji knew that he had been deceived, so he immediately mounted his horse and chased after the knights, and if Hoto was allowed to intercept the grain, they would lose a lot.
On the other side, Felicia was also on the way to Banhad with a grain convoy of tens of thousands of people, and according to the latest reconnaissance results, now was the most suitable time.
Felicia rode at the front with a troop of cavalry, and in the evening they came to a high ground, and watched as the town below was garrisoned by sixty or seventy thousand church troops, guarding the road to Banhard.
At this time, the chief of the guard also asked, "Queen, can't we get around here?"
"No, the defenders here are the least, if we choose to bypass, we will encounter more enemy troops, and there is a deviation from our planned route, have you sent a message to Your Majesty?"
"It's already been sent, Your Majesty should know where we are. β
"Good, it's going to be tonight. β
At the same time, Su Lin also took 60,000 cavalry and 100,000 infantry to the enemy garrison more than ten kilometers away, and then stopped here.
After Su Lin dismounted and sent out the scouts, he lay down on the grass and rested, humming a song in his mouth: "That potpourri in spring"
Gru looked at him so leisurely, humming some songs that he didn't understand, and he also asked softly, "Your Majesty, why don't we take down those enemy troops in one fell swoop and join the queen?"
Su Lin closed his eyes and replied: "Every one of our soldiers is precious now, if we fight hard with them, we will definitely suffer heavy casualties, and the losses will be minimized, understand?"
"I understand, Your Majesty, when the time comes, we can also absorb those enemy troops into our team, and then our team will grow a lot. β
"Not this time, those were all Muga people before, and their homes are here, so it's no problem to accept them, but these are Hoto people, so they can only kill them. β
Gru nodded while listening, he also learned a lot from following Surin during this time, unlike before when he led his own troops, he only knew how to rush and only knew how to kill.
Just as he was in a daze, Su Lin's voice sounded again: "This time I set up such a big game, do you see anything?"
Knowing that Su Lin wanted to consider himself, Gru pondered for a moment before he replied: "Your Majesty, I feel that you are playing the enemy around, and everyone else is more honest in the war, and you are compared."
"What's the comparison?"
"It's treacherous. β
Hearing this word, Su Lin also smiled and said: "I'm smart, I'm wise, as the saying goes, soldiers, treacherous ways, the land of death and life, the way of survival, you must not ignore it, my trick is still good to use to transfer the tiger from the mountain." β
