Chapter 16: Battle Plans
"However, the garrison is indeed going to be dispatched" Giggs said slowly and firmly, and this sentence also attracted the attention of everyone in the room, Sir Thor took a deep look at Giggs, and said slowly, "Giggs, what do you think, don't hide it, say it~"
"I don't have an overall view of the overall situation, I can only rely on the information I know to make a judgment, in the southwest of the Whispering Forest, there is only a tribe of about 5,000 gnolls, and now they have changed the normal state of fear of elves for some unknown reasons, and have repeatedly invaded humans, which is a provocation to humans and a provocation to elves~"
Giggs pursed his lips, glanced at Sir Thor, and seeing that he had said nothing, he continued.
"According to the news from other places, as long as there are gnolls near the place of residence, the humans have more or less been invaded by the gnolls in the past six months, and I will skip other places first, because I am not familiar with the situation in those places, but here in the southwest of the Whispering Forest, in the town of your, I do have some ideas~"
"The gnolls just invaded the humans, and they didn't go into the forest stupidly, so the elves won't send their precious troops out of the forest to exterminate the gnolls, so the resistance to the gnolls can only rely on the humans themselves~"
"Chad does look like a lot, but the number of people they send out each time is not very large, I mean the troops they use to invade a town alone are not very many~"
"Even if there is a wise man in the gnoll tribe, it can't change the ignorance and barbarism of the gnoll tribe after all~"
"A tribe of five thousand gnolls, assuming that the male and female gnolls in the tribe are equal, then the gnolls they use to fight often are only two thousand five hundred, and after deducting the young gnolls in the tribe, the people they use to fight are only two thousand at most~"
"And scatter two thousand people to attack the human town, this is also the town of your does not have more than a thousand guards, otherwise this tribe can be easily wiped out~"
Jim nodded, and said, "You mean we send a garrison to fight the scattered gnolls and destroy their living force?"
"That's right, this horde of jackals is going to pay for their stupidity~" Giggs said in a loud voice.
"So, how are you going to destroy those scattered gnolls? You know, when they invaded the town of your before, the strength was also about three hundred, three hundred healthy adult male gnolls, their combat effectiveness is absolutely terrifying~ The strength of the garrison is slightly insufficient~" Sir Thor said slowly.
"Yes, Giggs, even if I am very confident in our strength, I have to say that the garrison can't defeat these three hundred gnolls~" Alan followed quickly and said quickly~
"So, we need terrain~" Giggs said with confidence~
"From the beginning, my goal was not to support the rest of the human towns, we didn't have that strength, what I thought about at the beginning was how to destroy the gnolls who invaded your town~"
"So, I chose, Shimizu Bridge!"
"Is this feasible~" Sir Thor thought carefully about the terrain around the Clear Water Bridge, and only spoke in a half-loud voice.
"The last time the gnolls attacked, I was doing my routine patrol of the Whispering Forest~" Giggs continued~
"Everyone knows that the elves stipulate that humans must help them protect the forests inhabited by the elves, these forests are forbidden to be cut down by humans, and the patrols of the militia are just perfunctory tasks, and no humans want to offend the anger of the elves to cut down these forests, because there is more wood in the rest of the place~"
"So, the militia's patrol mission is actually just for the elves to see, that day, I just wanted to go to the toilet, but as you can guess, I was lucky to escape, and four of my companions died at the hands of the jackals~"
"And the direction in which the gnolls came from happened to be the Qingshui Bridge, as long as they wanted to invade the town of your, then they had no choice, if they didn't choose to swim across the river or take a long detour, their only route to choose was the Qingshui Bridge~"
"Last time, Qingshui Bridge provided convenience for them, and this time, Qingshui Bridge will ask them to be buried together~" Giggs said his plan in one breath.
"Good way, as long as we destroy some of the less important places where the Qingshui Bridge is load-bearing in advance, so that it can barely let the jackals walk on it~ We need a master who knows how to build bridges~" Qiao patted his thigh and said excitedly~
"There's no need to worry about this, the old Tom who was in charge of building the bridge was still in our town at the time, and he knew what to do~" Jim quickly answered Joe's question.
"When most of the jackals go to the bridge, it takes a few young men who are proficient in water to scuttle the main bearing point, I think I can find such a guy~" Alan is also using his brain to think about the details.
"We can also set some traps at the entrance to the bridge near the town of your, so that the gnolls who cross the bridge can taste the traps taught by Hill himself~" Giggs continued.
Looking at the few people who were reminded by Giggs and immediately became excited to discuss the plan, Sir Thor touched his chin with relief, but there were some things he still had to say, and he could only say it!
"So, what about the gnolls who haven't made it to the bridge yet?"
The few people who were discussing fiercely were suddenly silent, everyone was not stupid, just now they were a little carried away with excitement because they had a way to defeat the jackals, and now after being reminded, several people naturally took into account the seriousness of those gnolls who did not go to the bridge.
"Why don't you let them escape?" said Joe, a little unreserved.
"Absolutely not!" Alan said loudly, "If they escape back, then the gnolls will know that we defeated these gnolls with a stratagem, rather than relying on strength to destroy them, then, more gnolls will come to retaliate~"
"We have to make the gnolls think that there is a powerful force that has eliminated the team they sent, and it is best to let them think that the elves have done it~ In that way, the town of your can be safe~" Speaking of this, Alan has waved his arms excitedly~
"That's right, those gnolls must not be spared, including those who fell into the river~" Jim emphasized at one point.
Sir Thor's eyes looked at Ryan Giggs, who had been calm, and he knew it in his heart, and said, "Then, the guards need to deal with them and fight with real strength~"
Jim, Giggs, Allen, Joe, and the four of them looked at Thor, everyone knew that at this time, the adult needed to give an order, and everyone couldn't refuse, because they were already part of the interest group that belonged to Thor~
Sir Thor glanced at the four of them and said word by word, "Jim, you lead sixty or so guards to destroy them, as for you, who wants to follow Jim on this mission?"
Time seems to have frozen in this room at this time, no one spoke, everyone knew that following Jim was definitely a very dangerous thing, but if the jackal was let go, the consequences would be even more unimaginable~
Giggs knew that he was going to stand up, there was no way, Jim had told him before, Sir Thor was going to make him an adjutant of the garrison, if he refused at this time, then his time in the town of your would be in vain, as for going somewhere else?
"I'm joining!" said Giggs, as calm as ever.
The light through the window shone on Giggs's body, and his erected chest was incomparably bright!
