CHAPTER XXXIV

The army gathered by the king this time was about 100,000, but it was not enough to gather now, but there were also more than 10,000 king's troops here, and there were only 1,000 people in the city used for defense on Li Feng's side. After the division of troops, the number of troops was even more insufficient, and the only advantage was that the fortifications had been built, and the existing 1,000 men could already make an effective defense.

Under the fortifications of artillery fire, as long as he is vigilant, Li Feng does not have too many worries here, but they are not so relieved about Kalian and Brewster, just like here, they are not at ease to hand over to anyone.

"Your Highness, it's all been designed, and once the enemy attacks, you'll get caught up in it. ”

"Very good"

Li Feng just laid a mine array and sulfur in front of the battlefield, to put it simply, even if there was a real war here, Li Feng would not defend here, but directly set fire to this place, turning this place into hell, and then retreated to the rear defense line, and it is difficult to say what the rear defense line will be.

The king watched Li Feng build a defensive line from a distance, and said with some envy: "I really don't know what to hide, it's just above board, do you think we really can't get any information, this is really too contemptuous of people, this kind of thing is called a mine, after it is buried in the ground and activated, if someone touches it, it will explode." We can still find out this information. ”

Now that you know, how much power does this so-called minefield of yours have?

The king said silently, it's just that there are only thousands of people, and nearly 90,000 of the nobles have been contained, otherwise, when his defense line is not fully established, he will be taken down with the advantage of numbers, but now it is really distressing.

However, it is still far from enough to contain it, and even if it is contained, it is still a matter of time before it converges, and the stalemate itself is going in the direction of its own strength step by step.

"Even then, there is only so much we can do, and the transportation of artillery is completely undelivered. The one who wants to change the current situation is artillery. ”

Li Feng said that the opportunity to flop is artillery, but the transportation of old-fashioned artillery is too difficult, two carriages and one battery, and there are not many places to transport. However, the real hole cards, whether they work or not, I don't know, after all, I am at most a military enthusiast, and I have some understanding of the history of military development, but I have not understood it in detail.

I don't know what kind of effect that weapon can play.

Brewster, who has the highest mobility, is much more decisive than Karen and ruthless, directly ending the lord's mansion and completely destroying the grain depot. As a direct result, the 30,000 people on the lord's side fell into a dilemma, and a large number of spies tracked down, but they did not find out where Brewster's 2,000 people were.

This matter is very embarrassing, in the two big lords as many as 50,000 people surrounded and suppressed, but they couldn't even find anyone there, not only lost face, but also delayed the march, although the king did not have too much urging, but even so, he was embarrassed to continue.

However, in his own territory, there is such a team, and he has no way to go to the front line with confidence. Obviously, he has fallen into a dilemma, presumably, he still hopes that his opponent is like Kalian, at least he has a direction.

"Where the hell will it be?" Just as the lord's face was sad, the king's face surprised everyone and began to act.

"The minefield in front is easy to crack, and the things in the back are not difficult, are you all ready for what should be prepared?"

"Your Highness, it's all right, but what do you want these cows to do?"

"That minefield, you can't let the knights go, then let these cattle go, and disrupt the other party's arrangement by the way. The king said, after dark, hundreds of oxen put oil on their tails and set them on fire, and the frightened oxen, under the inducement of the king's army, thought of Li Feng's position and ran over.

The king's army, which had not moved for a day, suddenly made such a big move, although it was guarded, but the unexpected action still caught Li Feng and the others a little off guard.

"Fire Bull Array, why are my gang of cattle running towards our position one by one? Shouldn't they be scattered? Although I don't understand, it doesn't matter, resist this group of cows, and wait until ......" Li Feng said, the outside suddenly emitted a heavenly fire, and the fire array prepared before didn't know how to be ignited, Li Feng sighed and said, "The whole army retreats to the second line of defense." This fire should be able to withstand the other party for a while. ”

"Yes"

The king, who was standing on a high place, looked at Li Feng, who was retreating in an orderly manner, and couldn't help but be a little surprised in the face of this unexpected fire.

"Austin, use mines as bait, let's take it lightly, and then the main thing is to use fire to annihilate, ruthless, if it weren't for the accidental ignition of the fire, I'm afraid, this time there will be a lot of losses. ”

"Good luck"

"A little bit of luck. ”

Li Feng looked at the fire and said with some regret.

In this way, the opponent really won the first line of defense without a single soldier, and then needed to fight a hard battle.

"I don't know what happened to Karen and Brewster, I hope there won't be too many accidents. ”

"General Brewster, we have now made a great detour back to the west, and this is somewhat different from His Highness's mission. A general came to Brutus's side and couldn't help but say.

"The task given to us by His Highness is not to wander around in the east, but to delay the enemy's actions, obviously, we have done it, as long as we don't appear anywhere, in this case, the other party will continue to search, we are at this time, to help Kalian, and to hit the lord hard, it is His Highness's task. ”

"However, the other party should give up now, it's been almost half a month. The adjutant said.

"Although the other party has left now, there are still considerable forces looking for us, and they will not act at will until they find us. Brewster said.

Karen's side successfully occupied the important place, established a defensive line, and confronted the lord's 20,000 men.

Karen is not in a hurry, although he has been surrounded, but his side has already discharged someone to inform Brutus, with his own understanding of Brutus, he will kill the other party by surprise at the most critical time. So, all you need is to wait.
