641 Four battles and four wins
Davide, who was preoccupied, walked out of the king's tent with his head bored, and happened to collide with someone who came.
"Which rabbit—" He was about to have a seizure, when he realized that King Nacini was in the tent, and immediately fell silent, and made a rare turn to the side to get out of the way.
Unexpectedly, the other party was not interested, grabbed Davide's sleeve with his backhand, and asked, "Ados and 'Vulcan's Wrath', how are they now?"
Davide shook his hand and said impatiently, "I don't know." ”
Allegri observed the words, and when he heard this, he immediately snorted, "Since you don't know, then I'll go and ask the king." ”
"Don't—" Davide hurriedly grabbed him, the king had just calmed down a little anger, and when he asked about it at this time, he would inevitably be aroused again, and his life would be even more difficult.
"Say it. Allegri clasped his hands to his chest and looked at him coldly.
"Before I left, your student led the Vulcan Fury out of battle...... Davide replied, reflecting for a moment, "so they should be...... Safe and sound. ”
"Should it?" Allegri's eyes were full of suspicion, Davide was at the top of his blacklist and was not at all trustworthy.
"Definitely, definitely. Davide raised his palms and reassured.
As they whispered, King Nacini and Cattroman were talking in the tent. Although they were separated by a dozen paces, for the two legendary warriors, the difference was only whether they wanted to hear it or not.
"It sounds like Vulcan's Fury escaped faster than David. Carter Roman's tone was indifferent, but his thoughts were clear.
"The general's words are wrong," said King Nacini with his head shaken, "Davide is the commander of the First Army, and the 'Vulcan's Fury' is the siege force. Can they still be allowed to fight the enemy hand-to-hand?"
Katroman stopped talking, and it wasn't long before Allegri entered the royal tent and bowed to King Nacini.
"Excuse me," beckoned King Nacini with a wave of his hand. "Come here, all of you. ”
Cartroman, Mordschic, and Allegri were ordered to go to the main seat. King Nacini spread out the map on the desk, as if he was going to make some kind of deployment.
"Huh?" Allegri looked down, slightly surprised. In order to mark detailed information such as troops and terrain, the common maps in the Southern Expeditionary Army generally only included the southern region, but King Nacini took out a map of the whole continent.
Bad news came one after another. Innedir's layout is also gradually showing in front of everyone.
On the night of October 23, the new army of Guangming smuggled across the St. Imas River, and one of them, together with the garrison of the river crossing, hid in the mountains and forests near the city of Pandev.
In the early morning of the 27th, the four major legions of the New Army of Light arrived around the city of Severa, joined forces with the defenders in the city, and raided the Snowton camp. Inflicted heavy damage on the main force of the enemy army, opening the prelude to the four major raids of the Holy See.
Inedil has chosen Sevilla as his preferred target. It was also to paralyze the command center of the Snowton South Expeditionary Army and create a more favorable combat environment for other troops.
Half a day later, under the city of Pandev, the Holy See army ambushed Davide's troops and horses, reversing the decline of the southern battlefield in one fell swoop. Snowton's vanguard, which was already overwhelming, had to shrink its front. In case it is broken by each one.
At the same time, 100,000 desert cavalry from the Setstian Empire set out from the city of Leaïch and struck diagonally into the flank of the Northwest Theater. Thanks to the blessing of the "Void Arch", they went all the way unimpeded. It wasn't until three days later that they were discovered by the Snowton scouts, and by this time, they had advanced into the heart of Levineshire.
Subsequently, the desert cavalry split into two routes, one way south to sweep away the scattered troops and horses of Snowton's eastern front, and all the way north to intrude on the enemy's logistics supply lines. They come and go like the wind, their actions are secretive, and when all kinds of supplies are delivered to the front line, only about 50% of the original ones are left, and the rest are intercepted halfway.
Without sufficient food and grass materials, the officers and men of the Middle Route Army, who had just experienced a major battle, could only eat a meal of hunger, and even the camp tent was not enough. Officers and soldiers huddled together, and a standard four-person marching tent could often fit dozens of big men.
In this case, an urgent letter from the Western Route Army came overnight.
There are many merchants in the Torm Federation, but there are only six of them. According to secret intelligence channels, the Holy See of Light bought two of the two merchant lords, a mercenary force of about 50,000 people, to infiltrate the territory of the Duchy of Ian from the Territory controlled by the Matro family, and set up an ambush outside the east and north gates of Ferenman City.
In the early morning of the 28th, Innedil set fire to the city, and he himself drove the White Tower to rain the flame of light, which completely ignited the bustling trading city.
Snowdon's army was forced out of the city, just in time to crash into the ambush circle of Thorm's mercenaries, and the two sides fought a bloody battle, and each retreated at dawn.
Severa, Pandev, Ljajć, Ferrenman, the four major battles unfolded one after another. Inedil successively used tactics such as long-distance raids, encirclement and ambushes, sneak attacks and harassment, and fire attacks, and achieved a series of extraordinary results.
According to post-war statistics, the casualties of Snowton's southern expeditionary army reached the order of "100,000", and the grain and grass materials burned by the war were even more numerous. Most of the logistics materials of the Southern Expeditionary Army were allocated and distributed through the battalion of the Central Route Army, while all the grain and grass of the Western Route Army were stored in the city of Ferenman.
The soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first, everyone understands this truth. Therefore, in the urgent letter sent by Ebert, he did not ask King Nacini to send troops to support, but asked for food and grass. As long as the logistics can keep up, he is sure to stabilize his position, and Xu Tu counterattacks.
But Albert didn't know that in the attack on Severa a day earlier, the grain and grass stored in the camp of the Central Route Army had also been burned, and there was not much left.
"What an Innedir, what a trick. King Nacini put down the military report in his hand and knocked on the table with his fingers, his brow furrowed.
The most urgent task now is not the front-line war, but the unbearable logistics and transportation. Without enough food and grass, Snowton's southern expeditionary army would not be able to quickly recover and regroup.
"The total number of desert cavalry attacking the rear of our army is about thirty thousand," Mordsecic said, rising, "Your Majesty, you must send troops to encircle and suppress it as much as possible, so as to prevent future troubles." ”
"I know...... The Holy See of Light will pay the price for this. King Nacini sat upright in a deep voice, his sword crossed his lap and let out a slight whistling.
Modesic turned his head to look at him, and felt a surging energy rushing towards his face, like a long wind in the sea, with a faint fishy smell.
