"Everyone, I deeply feel your ceaseless fighting spirit."
Lei Xiao's face was calm and he nodded to his subordinates.
"This fiery and determined force makes me feel stronger than ever before. Although I am facing the coming powerful enemy, and although the front is full of thorns and uncertainties, as long as you are here, I have never felt so at ease.
."
As he spoke, Lei Xiao's expression gradually became serious.
"In my hometown, a sage once said such a wise saying, "Know your enemy and yourself, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles. Only by knowing the enemy's situation and our own situation well can the battle not fail."
"So, let's first analyze the opponent's overall strength."
After a pause, Lei Xiao opened his mouth and said, "Lan Cold Castle, commanded by Marquis Rose, is located to the west of the Great Prince's faction's sphere of influence. It is the closest city to each other except Mailan Town and Red Arrow Town.
, let him introduce it."
"As you command, Lord."
The peculiar and strange sound of Rose Marquis sounded.
Although this voice still contains three parts of elegance and laziness, the other seven parts are full of reassuring composure and calmness: "The forces of the eldest prince's faction are in the southwest of the territory, with Songluo City
There are 13 cities radiating outward from the core, with a total military strength of 70,000 to 80,000."
"As far as my subordinates know, the opponent's large standing army, including the guards in each city, has at least 3,000 elite troops at level 2 and above, and close to 80 people at level 3.
"
"As for the fourth-level powerhouses, although the Lord has put Marquis Luoji to death, there are still four of them. And these four people, plus Marquis Luoji's successor, are the prince's chief leaders in this area.
Dog legs.”
Having said this disdainfully, Marquis Rose paused and added: "In addition, the First Prince's faction also has a cavalry force of at least 30,000 people, and their mobility is extremely impressive."
"The most important thing is that most of these traditional nobles who have dominated the country since the era of the King of Heroes have a huge family background, and they have endless trump cards."
"And their strong strength, good elite education, ruthless and cruel methods, fanatical loyalty to the eldest prince, and aloof and arrogant paranoid aristocratic style make them even more famous. They are by no means ordinary people."
After listening to Rose Marquis's words, all the subordinates present could not help but look solemn.
In terms of combat power alone, the opponent's strength is undoubtedly equal to no less than 10 fifth-level experts.
Looking at the solemn expressions of his subordinates, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.
As the saying goes, an arrogant soldier will be defeated. It can make the main subordinates under his command feel a certain amount of pressure, which is obviously much stronger than blind encouragement and blind arrogance.
Of course, this is only for the main subordinates at the management level. For ordinary soldiers everywhere, it is natural to maintain high morale at all times.
"This is what I mean by knowing your enemy and yourself, and you can win every battle. Only by fully understanding your opponent and yourself can you better find out your opponent's weaknesses."
Lei Xiao, who was sitting on the throne, said with deep eyes: "Although the opponent is powerful, it is not invincible. Regardless of other things, don't forget that besides us, there is another force in this area that cannot be underestimated.
power."
Instructing the subordinates to be calm, Lei Xiao continued: "Now, the Lord of Luolong City, Benson, will introduce the forces to which the second prince belongs."
"As you command! Lord!"
Benson's excited voice sounded.
Before the war came, this battlefield veteran who had been on the battlefield for decades started to talk as if a grand party was about to come: "The forces of the Second Prince and his faction are in the west of the territory.
There are 11 cities radiating outwards with Iron Fortress as the core, with a total military strength of 60,000 to 70,000."
"Among them, except for Star Star City on the Star Star Corridor, the other 10 cities and the First Prince's faction are like an iron plate, tightly hugged together."
"In terms of the size of the standing army, although the Second Prince's faction is inferior to the First Prince's faction, its elite strength is completely comparable to that of the First Prince's faction. Similarly, there are 3,000 elites in the second level and close to 80 strong ones in the third level.
The size, as for the fourth-level powerhouses, is the same as that of the First Prince’s faction, both having 4 people.”
"These new Lengyan nobles who have only emerged in the past three hundred years, although their families are not as prominent as those traditional nobles, their superior cruel ruling methods have allowed them to develop extremely rapidly, and they have also accumulated a strong family
The foundation.”
"Furthermore, compared with the large number of cavalry of the First Prince's faction, the Second Prince's cavalry, although only 20,000 in size, has a large number of long archers, and its long-range power is superior to that of the First Prince."
Having said this, Benson suddenly laughed excitedly and couldn't wait to say: "Lord, when will we start attacking? The chain hammers under my subordinates are already hungry and thirsty!"
"Don't worry, there are plenty of opportunities for you to show off this time."
Lei Xiao smiled faintly, and then said solemnly: "Everyone, regarding the overall combat strength of the opponent, it is already very obvious. The eldest prince's faction is the best at charging and maneuverability, while the second prince's faction is good at long-range attacks. It can be said that they are the best among all.
Distinctive.”
"Therefore, once we encounter these two forces, one of our basic combat policies is to let the eldest prince's faction fight the tough battle as much as possible, and before the second prince's faction attacks the city, we try to weaken the opponent's long-range power as much as possible, so that
Attack its weaknesses and avoid its strengths."
"The second combat policy is to remain unchanged in response to changes before the opponent's purpose is clear. There is no need to take the initiative to attack. All you need to do is to be strong and ready to attack at all times."
"As for the third combat policy, that is to do everything possible to provoke disputes between the two, weaken their forces as much as possible, and then reap the benefits."
After Lei Xiao finished speaking, he stood up from his seat and walked towards the lower position while continuing: "In addition, except for Kongqing Town, including the territory, all other cities have not been exposed. This is also our side.
The biggest advantage at this stage is to strive to catch people by surprise and attack them unprepared."
After listening to Lei Xiao's words, all the subordinates present, including the experienced kingdom generals Burt and Ju Bai, all nodded thoughtfully.
Maintaining the status quo.
Lord, this arrangement is indeed the most appropriate.
It is conceivable that once one of our cities makes any changes, it will be attacked by a group of opponents.
In addition, the distribution of our cities is relatively scattered, and large-scale military support cannot be gathered in the surrounding areas in time. If the opponent chooses to defeat them one by one, it will be a piece of cake.
By then, the situation will be over.
"Lord, I have another question."
The crisp sound of armor clashing sounded, and Bert, who was fully armed, stepped forward, stroked his chest and saluted: "If the power of the eldest prince and the second prince are both targeting Kongqing Town this time, what should we do?
response?"
"This possibility is indeed very high."
Lei Xiao, who had already walked to the subordinates, nodded thoughtfully and said: "If I were a certain prince, rather than leaving Kongqing Town as an uncertain factor, it would be better to eliminate it first."
"After all, in the eyes of our two opponents, the cost of annihilating Kongqing Town is much smaller than annihilating each other."
Walking up to Bert, Lei Xiao smiled faintly and continued: "However, the current Kongqing Town is not an easy bone to crack."
Having said this, Lei Xiao turned to the commander of the Kongqing Town garrison on the other end of the conversation and said, "Guanzhong, please introduce the current situation in Kongqing Town."
"As you command, Lord Lord!"
A clean baritone voice sounded, and Guanzhong responded: "Currently, with the lord's generous investment, the city wall of Kongqing Town has been reinforced at an epic level, reaching a height of 10 meters, as has the arrow tower.
It’s all over it.”
"On the periphery of the city, there are trenches 10 meters wide and 5 meters deep, as well as a large number of deer villages that can be deployed at any time."
"The size of the garrison, thanks to the Lord's high treatment, has reached 6,000 people. They are composed of 3 regular army brigades and 3 reserve brigades. All of them have received systematic bow and crossbow training."
"In addition, there are 5 second-level guard squadrons directly under the city lord's palace, 3 second-level squadrons directly under the lord, 2 second-level princess guards, and 1 trade fair guard squadron, with a total of 1,100 people.
The second-level elite force, and more than 1,000 mercenaries in the city, can also be recruited at any time."
"As for the strong men sitting here, in addition to Mr. Fang Hai, who has been promoted to the fourth-level strong man, and Lin, who is at the peak of the third-level, there are also 5 third-level garrison commanders including the following, and 4 third-level commanders of the Princess Guards.
First-level commander, five third-level commanders directly subordinate to the lords, and five third-level maids of Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
As he talked, Guanzhong's voice became more and more high-spirited: "Finally, there are 120 magic cannons in Kongqing Town, including 70 second-level magic cannons, all equipped with magic light crystals, and first-level magic cannons."
50 magic cannons!”
"As expected of the lord, I didn't expect that a small town called Kongqing has developed to such an extent. Compared with the little-known town at the beginning, it is like heaven and earth!"
After listening to Guanzhong's introduction, Bert's old face couldn't help but reveal a touch of uncontrollable joy: "With such a luxurious configuration, Kongqing Town will never fall easily unless a certain force attacks with all its strength!
"
After Bert finished speaking, the faces of the other subordinates were also full of excitement.
Just as General Burt said, the current Kongqing Town is indeed different from what it used to be!
In the excitement, Bert narrowed his eyes slightly, and while stroking his short white beard, he said in a deep voice: "Lord, if the opponent attacks Kongqing Town, is it because he is drunk instead of drinking?"
"It's definitely a possibility."
Ju Bai, who was also fully armed on the side, frowned and echoed: "If this is really the case, the other party's tactics are nothing more than two. The first is to besiege the city for reinforcements in an attempt to attract our hidden strength, and the second is to
If we make claims in the east and attack in the west, our target will be directly on this territory."
"That's right, the latter is more likely."
Instructing the subordinates around him to look towards him, Lei Xiao nodded and said: "As I said before, although my identity as an alien lord has not been fully confirmed by the other party, as long as the territory is leveled, the aliens will
The fact that the world lord will be wiped out in ashes is already an open secret."
"It is conceivable that when the war begins, the other side will definitely send a large number of reconnaissance forces to conduct a blanket search in the vast area around Kongqing Town. It is only a matter of time before this territory is exposed."
Nodding to the two kingdom generals in front of him, Lei Xiao continued: "So, one of the main battlefields this time will definitely revolve around this territory."
As he spoke, Lei Xiao increased his tone a little more and said slowly: "No, as long as the other party discovers the existence of the territory, they will launch a crazy attack here at all costs. The territory will be the absolute main battlefield of this war!
"
After listening to Lei Xiao's words, the solemn faces of the subordinates became a little more solemn, and the excitement they had just shown was wiped away.
It is conceivable that if hundreds of thousands of large-scale enemies all rush towards the territory.
Then, the territory cannot be defended forever no matter what.
This was despite the fact that there were no reinforcements from the opponent's high-level experts and the members of the mysterious organization did not show up.
If these uncertain unfavorable factors intervene, the situation will be extremely bad.
"At this point, the core combat policy of this war is very obvious."
Feeling the increasingly solemn atmosphere around him, Lei Xiao looked calm and said calmly: "That is, on the basis of following the first three basic combat policies, each territory should try its best to prevent the enemy from all attacking the territory. In various areas of this eastern region
, start a grand all-out blocking war."
"And, try to take advantage of the opponent's empty city to directly attack the opponent's base camp."
Lei Xiao snapped his fingers and continued: "This is our action plan this time."
"Lord, in other words, this is using the territory as bait. Isn't it a bit too risky?"
On the other end of the conversation, the old and worried voice of Archduke Bollen came over: "Perhaps, we can have a better way to deal with the attacks of two huge enemies."
After hearing Archduke Bollen's concern, other subordinates present and those on the other end of the conversation all agreed.
You must know that territory is the foundation of a lord's establishment in this world, so doing this is really worrying.
"The territory will be exposed sooner or later, and it is inevitable that the other party will attack regardless."
Lei Xiao smiled bitterly, shook his head, and responded: "Under this general trend, if we go against the trend, our losses will only be greater. It is better to take advantage of the situation in exchange for a glimmer of hope."
After Lei Xiao finished speaking, all the subordinates couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
