Although the current situation seemed to others to be a crisis, Gruto unexpectedly sensed the opportunity in it.
Along the way, Gruto has been thinking about their strategy. Under the current situation, their troops cannot actually defeat the troops of the First Legion. Although there is not much difference in the elite level of the soldiers and their combat capabilities, the problem is that they are now completely
The regiment has no officers, and the few team captains who have been temporarily pulled out are all temporary. They do not have the ability to be officers, so they can only serve part-time.
In this case, it is obviously impossible to confront the opponent head-on. With ordinary fighting methods, the command system here will collapse immediately.
Gruto clearly knew that the only advantage on his side was to win by surprise. The opponent did not know their actions yet, which was the key. Therefore, he must take advantage of this advantage to kill or maim the opponent in one go.
But how to arrange this? Gruto never thought about it until he caught the opponent's reconnaissance team.
Under normal circumstances, this is indeed a troublesome matter, but the problem is that the current situation is different from ordinary wars, because they may actually directly instigate rebellion against this reconnaissance force. This is obviously impossible to happen under ordinary circumstances.
Sure enough, after Gruto explained the situation to the captured reconnaissance team, the other party was of course dumbfounded. This team was actually a unit of the Second Army, and now they came back to fight their First Army.
of.
And they actually rebelled without knowing it. Now their family members have been arrested and are about to be beheaded.
After hearing this, and adding a lot of evidence such as announcements, Gruto quickly instigated the reconnaissance team. So the crisis turned into a fighter plane, because they instigated them, and then they could
Unscrupulously approaching the station of the First Army Corps.
Yes, the news brought back by the group of people they instigated was that everything was normal. Obviously, this would not arouse any suspicion. No one would have thought that a troop would appear here. And relying on the cover of this information, they
They could continue to approach the camp until they all reached the hilltop next to the First Army Corps camp and laid ambush without anyone noticing.
Under normal circumstances, even if we did not expect this force to exist, according to the level of self-discipline of the First Army, it would be impossible for them to arrive at such a close position without being discovered. But now the opportunity has come by itself, and this position is obviously coming.
If there were a wave of surprise attacks, it would be impossible for the First Legion to react in time.
Of course, it is impossible to wait for a long time. Such a large force may still be discovered. Gruto immediately decided to set the attack time tonight, and directly lead this wave of rebels away.
Everyone lay in ambush and waited quietly for the night to come. Then...then something unexpected happened again.
Just when the night was quiet, Gruto had already informed all the soldiers to prepare for a night attack. However, just as they were about to start, the troops of the First Army below suddenly made a noise.
Got up.
After a while, the "ding ding ding" alarm bell rang, which was obviously an invasion. At this moment, everyone on the mountain was shocked. They...were discovered?
Gruto was also in a panic and didn't know what to do. After all, this was his first time commanding an army. He had led a team of dozens of people before, but now he was leading a team of nearly 100,000 people. The difference between the two was that he
Of course you can feel it personally.
I thought my plan was good and a God-given opportunity before, but now something unexpected has happened, what should I do?
"Fight them!" Most of the people around Gruto said so. Now that he was discovered, don't think about running away, just fight.
Gruto was very confused. He knew that as long as the opponent was prepared for the current situation, they really couldn't beat them. However, just when he hesitated and didn't know what to do, the horn of a charge came from the distance.
Everyone is a soldier of the empire, so they obviously understand the meaning of this horn. Are there troops going to charge into the camp? Where do these troops come from? Everyone is confused.
Looking confused, they saw a troop suddenly appear below, rushed directly into the camp of the First Army, and started fighting with the First Army.
"It's the flag of the Third Army Corps." Someone here also recognized the opponent's military flag and said immediately.
"Third Army?" Gruto had not yet calmed down after hearing this. Of course, he had asked clearly about the current situation before. The Third Army was hooking up the defense line not far away. It was indeed possible.
Their troops. But why do they dare to rush out and fight? Isn't it about building a defense? And how does the commander of the Third Army know that the First Army below has only one legion, not an army of 200,000 people?
"The commander of the third legion seems to be a woman, the one who has made many military exploits recently." said the person next to him.
"You actually dare to take the initiative? How courageous..."
Listening to the discussion of the people next to him, Gruto also remembered it. When asking for information before, the group of people also said that the commander of the third legion was a woman named Esdeath, who was said to be very powerful. On the one hand
It seems that he was originally a member of Her Majesty the Queen. He joined the army as a general. On the one hand, he made many military exploits and won every battle. He became the commander of the army in half a year.
At first, Gruto was a little doubtful about this, but now he saw that he was indeed a victorious general. At this time, they dared to take the initiative and attack the opponent's camp at night. This shows that General Esdeath is completely capable.
He saw their strategy of dividing the troops, and also seized the opportunity to catch the first army by surprise.
Gruto was a little panicked at first, not knowing whether he could win. But he didn't expect that such a situation would happen now, when the third legion attacked the opponent. For a moment, Gruto even felt that he was blessed by the gods.
All good things happen to you.
"Everyone! The imperial army is coming, this is our chance!" Gruto stood up and shouted, "If we don't fight now, it will be worse! Everyone, rush with me!"
There is no doubt that everyone knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so they rushed down quickly. So a group of people got up directly, rushed down from the mountain and rushed down.
So the situation happened before. However, Gruto, who was charging, did not expect that just when they were about to charge forward, the sound of ringing gold suddenly sounded in the distance. When the troops of the Third Army heard the sound, they actually slowed down.
Start to back away.
At this moment, Gruto was a little confused. What is going on? Why did you suddenly retreat again?
But what he didn't expect was that everyone who appeared on the battlefield at this time, including more than 200,000 soldiers and generals, was not confused.
