Chapter 41: The Battle That Went Down in History
It is not good to blame a person too much, and it can cause great damage to his self-esteem.
Especially when this person is an emperor.
"Hey, I originally thought that Chris would attack the orcs like a bamboo, and then by the time we arrived, you were already sitting on a very high seat, enjoying the intimate and bold service brought by countless beast-eared girls, said. ”
"Ariel, you actually finished it in one breath, it's so powerful, and you don't have a speech problem. Hagen expressed surprise.
No, both of you are awesome.
That's not the problem.
"This time I'm the one who underestimates the enemy. Chris was a little annoyed: "I didn't expect the orcs to start using tactics this time, and they are very good at it." ”
"What does that mean?"
"Ariel, do you remember your previous battle with the Orcs?"
"I remember. Ariel remembers the incident of captive Meng Meng back to the empire clearly: "Those orcs have the same IQ as 0, and they will only chase me after me." ”
"But this time it's different. Chris's face was a little serious: "They can even complete a series of tactics such as decoy and encirclement under their command, and they can even use the advantages of the troops to the limit, and with the tactics, they are almost no different from our human army." ”
"That's right. Ariel looked down in contemplation for a moment. "I don't know what you're talking about, but it feels amazing. ”
No kidding now!
"Well, since they're very powerful, can't we just fight back?"
"Huh?"
"If you tell your dad about losing the defense, won't it be the end?" said Ariel, waving her little fists, "Just let the genius help...... Uh, it's a genius military advisor who came to give you some advice?"
"Ah, the burning Ariel, so cute. Just as Ariel was about to do something in high spirits, she was almost out of breath when she was hugged by Anne, who suddenly broke in.
"Everyone's okay, right?" Seeing the people safe and sound, Chris finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In front of them are the biggest evil force in the empire, the members of the Ariel's group.
Ay?
"Huh. Of course I'm fine, but it seems that my brother wants to ask about Ariel's safety. ”
"Well, I didn't. ”
"Goo, Anne is so pathetic. Didn't you say you love me for the rest of your life?
"Don't touch it!" Ariel began to frolic around the room with Anne, and the rest of the group went into normal mode.
It doesn't feel like war at all.
―――――――――――――――― ――――――――――――――――――――――
But after the farce is over, Ariel still ignores everyone's objections. A man got on a broom and flew out of the city.
It is said that I want to study the terrain or something.
The ensuing war, in which Ariel proposed a strategy, was later regarded in the annals of the empire as a textbook strategy to lure the enemy.
And Ariel's reputation as the new marquisess also started in this battle.
"Ariel is back!" Anne, who was sitting in a chair drinking tea, stood up the moment she saw Ariel fly back to the windowsill.
"How's it going, Ariel?" Chris, who was closing his eyes and recuperating, opened his eyes.
Looking around, there were only Chris, Hagen, and Anne left in the room.
Now there is nothing to scruple about.
"Probably optimistic. Ariel picked up her pen and walked to the map, and Chris and the others gathered around.
Before she knew it, Ariel really seemed to be a leader.
"The city is about ten kilometers from the defensive line, right? If you use the speed of cavalry, how long will it take to complete a round trip?"
"It's about half an hour? ”
"What if it's a dragon knight?"
"It's pretty much the same. ”
"Hey, so the dragon flies so slowly?"
You think it's the broom in your hand.
"Well. Forget it, it's not a big deal. According to what I just observed, at a distance of 10 kilometers, there will be a forest of no small or small trees at intervals. ”
"Yes, there are a total of three woods on the left and right of the road, with a large road in the middle. ”
"Then why aren't the three woods connected?"
"I remember that it seemed that my father was afraid that pedestrians would get lost, so he artificially divided the forest into three parts. Chris thought for a moment. "Ariel, are you trying to use ambush tactics?"
"Hey, Chris is smart sometimes. ”
"I'm afraid it won't work this time. Chris pondered, "Let's not mention that the Orcs suffered a loss last time, and this time the Orcs obviously have a more intelligent commander. That kind of lure will obviously be seen through by the enemy. ”
"You seem to have misunderstood Chris. I'm not talking about the kind of ambush that rushes together, that's the lowest tactic. ”
A fan appeared in Ariel's hand.
Strategist mode is on.
"I remember saying that my ring can unleash some range of invisibility magic. And the size of those three woods is not very large, and it is impossible to hide so many soldiers, if the orc commander is really as smart as you say, then it must know it too. So that's going to be where I'm going to make a fuss about that too. ”
"I'll have three forces of infantry and mages ambush around the three woods at the first time, and then I'll hide them with the ring. ”
"Then we're sending out three smaller groups of cavalry, without stealth. Just lay in ambush in the woods. ”
"Ariel is so handsome. Anne said she didn't understand anything, and now she was just admiring Ariel's face.
"Don't interrupt, in the end, we need a team of cavalry who are not afraid of death to lure the enemy. ”
"Then let the ambush attack, but that still doesn't have much effect, after all, it's too close to the enemy's camp. Hagen made a suggestion.
"Not really. Ariel pointed to a forest at the front.
"It's not that far from the Orc camp. It should be seen soon. Therefore, the moment the lured enemy troops meet the enemy troops, the enemy forces will turn around and run after them, so it is best that the first ambush troops will start to attack when they run to the woods. ”
"But will they really attack?" asked Chris.
"You say that the other party is a smart person, and I have this as a way to deal with smart people. Ariel spread her hands: "Well, they will definitely chase after you, trust me." ”
"After the first force appeared, the joint decoy force began to resist the pursuers, but do not fall in love with the fight, after a stalemate for a while, immediately run back, and then when they run to the second wood, the second ambush force is attacking, as before, it is also resisting for a while and running. ”
"At this time, the enemy will definitely feel that even if there is an ambush, it is within the range that can be broken, so it should continue to pursue. ”
"When the three waves of ambush soldiers and the decoy troops fled back, the three invisible troops appeared immediately, and at this time, do not pursue, start from the first woods and work backwards, one by one, start to cut down trees, and then set fires. Well, Chris, I'll let them pollute the environment. ”
"Well, no problem. ”
As long as you can win, this little bit of tree is nothing.
"After lighting the fire, the road should be cut off, and even if the orcs have reinforcements, it will take a lot of effort to come over. At this time, the stealth troops began to flank the front and back together with the previous troops. If I lose this kind of thing, it's really none of my business. ”
In other words, isn't this my big Kong Ming's strategy?
Isn't this meow a revision of the burning Bowang?
Wuhou Cheng doesn't deceive me.
"Ariel, so good! ”
"Well, you can give me some advice. Ariel, who was held in Anne's arms, asked.
"Uh, this. Hagen didn't know what expression to use to express his current feelings. He hadn't even heard of Ariel's tactics.
"Okay, just do it, Ariel, I believe you. For a long time, although he felt that Ariel's so-called method was a bit fanciful, Chris still chose to believe Ariel.
Therefore, it is the happiness of the courtiers to have a wise emperor.
Who is the courtier, I am the head of this guy!
And so, a battle that went down in history began.
