Chapter two hundred and sixty seventh marching strategy
"His Royal Highness Prince Lionheart, your army is led by Lord Qi Dan, the oldest Yalong priest in the kingdom. It also includes the priests from Caiyu City and the London Temple in the Southwest Province. Do you understand?
Is that the family fortune of the legendary Mourinho? Taking Caiyu City as an example, there are four soul priests, two war priests and two scepter priests participating in the war. Among them, Mr. Trezeguet, the lord of Caiyu City
He also came with the army, his magic pet is the "Nemean Lion", and his daughter Vivien Leigh happens to be the champion of this sacrificial competition!" Liu Zhencheng said impatiently: "If the "Whip of the God of War" is still there
If you have any opinions, General Kezman, I allow you and His Highness the Prince to exchange their respective sacrificial formations."
"No objection! Absolutely no objection!" Prince Kahn was startled, and quickly waved his hand to object: "Your Majesty, we, the Whip of the God of War, will unconditionally follow the arrangements of the temple."
The other generals looked at each other for a moment, and they didn't expect that a jade mining city could be so powerful.
"Isn't there only a population of 3,000 in Caiyu City? How can they get so many sacrifices?" General Wolfe Guti's handsome face was filled with suspicion and wonder.
"The actual number of sacrifices in Caiyu City is nine soul sacrifices, four war sacrifices, and three staff sacrifices. With the addition of the newly promoted Olympic champion, the number of staff sacrifices has reached as many as four. Among them, Elder Holier
His magical pet is the "Liverpool Vermilion Bird", and Lord Trezeguet's magical pet is the "Nemean Lion". After all, he is on the level of the Great Shaman of Vian, and this time only half of the people came."
Liu Zhanchen clicked his tongue repeatedly: "The productivity of this kind of sacrifice has almost surpassed that of the world-famous singing family with the "five-line musical score"."
"It is said that there were tens of thousands of these Medusas when they returned. Later, many died in the swamp. In the end, there were only more than 3,000 people left. If that is the case, this ratio of sacrifices is still normal. After all, Medusa is also a sacrifice.
A highly productive race." Prince Kahn frowned and said thoughtfully.
"Who knows, maybe a few geniuses will emerge." Liu Zhenzhen laughed.
Prince Kahn's eyes flickered and he lowered his eyelids.
Liu Zhancheng secretly curled his lips and smiled. This matter has been in his heart for a long time and he has never been able to figure it out. Speaking of it today is to let other forces help to find out.
The high productivity of Medusa sacrifices is really shocking. Even as Mourinho said some time ago, he has more than 3,000 snake-painting and two-headed snake people under his command in the Southwest Sunset Swamp.
, Judging from the ratio of one qualified priest born out of 1,000 people in Fox, how did 6,000 Medusas have 17 priests? Such a high ratio of priests is really terrifying. Liu Zhensha now feels sorry for Mourinho
If so, I really can’t believe it.
"Then I have to thank the temple for its fair distribution." Prince Kahn laughed. The war is about to begin. Anyway, having so many high-level priests join not only means that they have received strong support in the war song, but also the excellent demons.
The pet is as useful as a mage, which is not something that young rookie priests can match.
"The temple is not fair. You see, the "Toulon Legion" only has five young priests led by me." Liu Zhancheng winked at His Highness the Prince.
"Your Majesty, I am humble. Your Majesty, Helen Lan, Sir Mo'er's strength is obvious to all of us. As for Miss Sissi, although she has not been officially recognized by the temple, I have seen her strength with my own eyes.
"As the vanguard, the mission of the "Toulon Legion" is only to explore the road, and there is definitely some danger. However, such a mission is obviously an underachievement for Your Majesty." Prince Kahn laughed and patted Liu Zhenshao slightly.
A house fart.
"What about the mission of the military department? You should also explain it to us, right?" Liu Zhancheng knocked the ashes from his cigar and pointed to Chief of Staff Pinto and asked.
"The military division of the mission this time is extremely simple." Chief of Staff Pinto was very happy and directly pulled out a large military sheepskin map and spread it on the table: "Your Majesty, please take a look..."
Pinto's chief of staff placed his finger on the Cambridge Oasis marked on the map, and then moved northward: "...Mr. Mourinho's forty hippogryph cavalry who supported us arrived at the front line six days ago.
After several days of surveying and mapping, we have basically confirmed the surrounding terrain trend. The Cambridge Oasis is within more than two thousand miles to the north, separated by the Harvard Oasis, Oxford Oasis and Yale Oasis that were discovered in last year's battle.
During the offensive, there were basically no desert bandits left, and you can also see that these three oases just formed a coherent chain of points on the map with the Cambridge Oasis. Although after last year's battle, we did not
The garrison is left in an oasis, but as long as there is an oasis, there is a water source, and the drinking water problem that troubles us can be solved. After confirmation, the military department decided to locate the supply base at the forefront of the Yale Oasis. In this case, our supply troops
We can save two thousand miles of travel, and our continuous attack radius will not be hindered by logistical problems. If the next oasis is found, the supply base can move forward again until the sweep is completed."
Liu Zhensha carefully looked at the terrain. It was a pear-shaped desert. The Yale Oasis was just at the butt of the pear. There, after turning a corner along the narrow coastline, he would face the vast hinterland of the Taklamago Desert.
Setting up a supply base at Yale Oasis is indeed an excellent idea.
"The most important thing for the three armies is food roads. Logistics and supplies are our lifeblood, especially in a special environment like the desert. Once there are no logistics supplies and the enemy does not come to attack us, we will be finished first." Liu Zhenzhen added.
I began to pretend to be an expert, but this time my words were quite satisfactory: "Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, we must pay attention to protecting our logistics base!"
"Your Majesty, please rest assured that all our logistics will be handed over to Master Boban. The mixed team composed of Austere warriors and Llama archers has been battle-tested for a long time, and they are in the rear, so there should be no problems.
"Chief of Staff Pinto pointed to the pear-shaped trend on the map and said: "What we really need to focus on now is here. Once we cross the Yale Oasis, we will completely penetrate into the hinterland of the Taklamago Desert, and the terrain trend will suddenly become clearer.
It has become tens or hundreds of times larger. In this case, finding the opponent's royal city has become the first problem to be solved. But fortunately with the addition of the air cavalry and several Biao warriors, this time it should be much smoother than last year.
"
"Two of our Toulon regiments in the Northeast mysteriously disappeared last year. Where did they disappear?" Liu Zhenzhen lay on the map, smoking a cigar while using a ruler to measure the distance between each oases.
distance.
"They crossed the Yale Oasis, marched towards the hinterland of the desert, and finally disappeared mysteriously. Last year, the military staff did not set the army's formation. The former army flew in three directions, trying to expand the search radius. Who knew that suddenly
One route was missing, and the other two routes were attacked by surprise. The losses were too great and supplies were insufficient, so we had to retreat in the end." Chief of Staff Pinto sighed.
"Sissi!" Liu Zhencheng called the pretty girl Chikeyin behind him: "Tell me, where is your home?"
"My home should be here." Sissi held the lyre and pointed to the right side of the military map marked with the Yale Oasis. "Actually, there should be two other small oases in this area, but I also
I'm not sure, because sometimes the sand dunes move with the sandstorms and can fill everything, and the small oasis can be easily obliterated. The small oasis where my family lives has an ancient city ruins with underground water sources on both sides.
There are also many indigenous people living there.”
"Your family?" The chief of staff and several generals were a little surprised: "Has your family always lived in the desert?"
"Yes." Sissi nodded timidly.
"Then how did you come to the capital of the kingdom? Did you walk on foot?" Prince Kahn touched his chin and reclined on the back of the chair.
"Yes."
"Then how do you solve the problem of food and clothing? You, a little girl, walked more than two thousand miles to the imperial capital on two legs?" Prince Kahn was a little unconvinced.
"I brought a lot of pumpkins that I grew myself. The pumpkins will not evaporate their water. They retain water and can satisfy hunger." Sissi's answer made a group of Behemoth warriors stand in awe, and it came to everyone's mind.
A picture emerges - a lonely girl, dragging a lot of pumpkins slowly forward with her young shoulders in the boundless desert.
"So, you should be very familiar with the area around Yale Oasis, right?" The chief of staff did not forget to ask some military questions.
"Yes." Sissi's answer was affirmative: "The eggs of my demon pet, the Flame Snapping Turtle, were obtained near the Yale Oasis."
Prince Kahn immediately looked at Lord Boban, the top military officer of Cambridge Oasis.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness." Mr. Boban murmured for a long time and said a little embarrassedly: "Our mixed regiment's first priority is to defend the territory. The only desert we are familiar with is about three hundred miles near the Cambridge Oasis.
Beyond this range, we don’t know very well.”
"What you did is correct." Prince Kahn did not blame the Ostrich captain, but turned to look at Sissi and asked: "Dear Miss Sissi, can you tell me in more detail what you said?
What kind of people live in these small oases and ancient city ruins with underground water sources?"
"Because of the Yale Oasis, there are a lot of desert humans living in this area. In the other two small oases, there are scorpion people from the Skodi tribe, snake people from the Seder'am tribe, and at one time there were some vulture people from the Isgao tribe.
, but there are not many of them." Sissi's fingers circled the area around the Yale Oasis.
The experienced officers couldn't help but secretly complain. With a slight circle of this slender finger, they covered at least three to four hundred miles. The desert was not as fun as fighting on the plains.
"The Yale Oasis was captured by our army in last year's battle. Most of the desert humans in the oasis escaped. But I want to thank you, Sissy. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known about our logistics base.
There is actually a large group of Desert Behemoths hidden there." Prince Kahn's face tightened: "If we ignore such an enemy, the consequences will be terrible. If we don't pay attention, these Desert Behemoths will be destroyed.
Without the logistics base we created at Yale Oasis, wouldn’t we be doomed immediately?”
"Isgao vulture people? Does this mean that desert humans also have an air force establishment?" Chief of Staff Pinto smashed his mouth, smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It seems that our estimate is too simple. It seems that
The desert human bandits also own an extremely large country, and this battle seems to be a bit beyond our expectations."
"I wonder if this desert country is ruled by desert humans or desert behemoths?" Helen flattened her mouth.
"No matter which ruler it is, it can still be defeated!" Liu Zhenzhen flicked the butt of his cigar far away: "I guess it is ruled by humans."
"Whether it's Desert Behemoth or Desert Humans, they are all our enemies anyway! After all the troops arrive at Yale Oasis this time, please clean up these natives first!" Prince Kahn punched Sissi on the map.
He circled the area he pointed out and gritted his teeth and said: "I really don't know what the air scouts do for food! They didn't notice such an obvious loophole! We can't rush into such a big thing, we have to pull out these few small nails first!"
"Your Highness, don't be anxious. As a guest, you should not blame the ability of aerial scouts for the time being. I think we are relying too much on aerial reconnaissance? The captain of the Apeargryph Air Cavalry reported to me the other day that the reconnaissance range was too large.
There is also a lack of sense of direction in the desert. It seems that what he said is true. From a bird's-eye view from the sky, it is indeed difficult for the air cavalry to distinguish ancient ruins with the same color as the yellow sand. The only ones that can be distinguished are eye-catching oases. For forty people
For the air scouts and six Biao warriors, the reconnaissance territory is more than two thousand miles at once, and it is inevitable that there will be omissions." Chief of Staff Pinto said softly: "Miss Sissi, what I want to know now
Yes, are these desert natives also present in the Oxford Oasis and Harvard Oasis? Or are there any ancient ruins with underground water sources near these two oases?"
"These two oases are not remote. They are located in the center of the desert. Due to sandstorms, there should be no small habitable oases or ruins around them. Even if there are, they should be annihilated by the wind and sand; the Yale Oasis
The location is a bit towards the eastern latitude and longitude, and sandstorms rarely roll there, so ancient ruins and small oases appear." Sissi replied affirmatively: "In fact, in the desert, not only enemies, sandstorms, quicksand seas and countless
The numerous poisonous insects and monsters are what need to be guarded against. These small problems can cause huge losses inadvertently." (To be continued)
