Chapter 1101
Imperial Capital, Sky Dome, Imperial Cabinet Hall.
If some people choose Loren, they definitely don’t want to use this as their own combat Conference Hall. Considering the time it takes for the messenger to travel back and forth from the Imperial Capital city gate or the military camp in the Sky Palace, it just sounds. It's desperate.
The problem is that he has no choice.
With the memories of the Imperial Capital nobles, or the goldfish of the Imperial Council, as long as they and the two hundred people who came with them hunting Fiend and Byrne Knight’s guards to leave the Vault of Heaven, they will immediately forget that they were killed yesterday. The despair of bullying and temptation turned into the illusion of "I can fight back" and began to dig a hole in his back.
The Minister of the Seal Metternich and the imperial cabinets have proven with facts that they can’t persuade these stupid marmots and moldy oranges, and want to suppress and empty their only one. The only way is to remain threatened at all times, so Loren must personally sit in the Sky Vault, and keep the black Golden Lion flag flying inside and outside the great hall of the Sky Vault all the time, in order to impress them.
As for the outward devotion but inner opposition, say one thing and do one thing, remember to eat or not to fight, to rebel, to assassinate... From the trifling two days after the declaration of the battle, Loren has reached the point of no surprise, even The point of "not being humiliated".
It turns out that these people are not stupid, but they are definitely enough to believe oneself infallible-as if everyone feels that they are extremely talented conspirators, and feel that they can’t guess who did what or did not do what.
After doing a few of the most powerful guys who jumped, the remaining Imperial Capital nobles still didn't have any thoughts of "reflection", and used various small actions to make trouble for him.
If it weren't for only three days, the black hair wizard really had the urge to burn the imperial council.
"Dear Lord Duke, although your declaration on the Imperial Council had a dignified appearance, generous and powerful, but..."
With a tangled face and double dark circles Little Yod, staring at the black hair wizard fiercely with a frantic look: "Three days?!"
"Just sort out all the accounts of the Imperial Capital Chamber of Commerce and put one The materials in a warehouse were mobilized for more than three days. What's more, you are not going to defend the city, but to go out of the city to fight. Do you understand that the cost will only increase instead of falling?!"
"I Once again, I am not a monster like yours, not an Evil God, not a vampire, not a mad believer, I cannot achieve the miracle you want to achieve!"
Deep suck in a cold breath, small Yod's hands were shaking: "Imperial Capital has more than 100,000 troops in the city. It is not easy for them to complete their rest in three days. You still want to arm them all to go out of the city..."
"You don't need such an army, 80,000 or so is enough." The black hair wizard shook his head: "50,000 Byrne Legion, 20,000 Elman Legion, 10,000 Sackland Legion who stayed behind at Imperial Capital."
"Sacland Legion does not need us to be responsible for logistics, Elman Legion is basically the same, and then Byrne Legion...We have already controlled the Imperial Capital’s armory. Just move Just use it."
80,000 people...including the deployment of troops, are all decisions made by Loren after careful consideration.
First of all, although he has participated in more than ten thousand melees, he has too little experience in commanding nearly one hundred thousand people. Three or four thousand people may be okay. After doubling, it will be difficult to grasp.
From four to fifty thousand to more than one hundred thousand, it is not only the military strength that has doubled, but also the width and depth of the battlefield. The head-on confrontation of more than one hundred thousand troops is enough to turn everything outside the Imperial Capital city into ruins.
So he needs Uli Wirtz, Grand Duke of Allermans and his Allerman Legion, who is only responsible for half of the battlefield and overall planning, which can relieve a lot of pressure.
As for the 10,000 Sacran Legion …is in order to guard against the unexpected.
This heavy infantry Legion, who was left behind by Connaught at the Imperial Capital and responsible for maintaining law and order, is the only remaining member of the Imperial Capital except for the Imperial Family guards—in fact, they have just been adapted from a veteran Legion. The elite; Loren didn't think he could rely on them, but worried that they might turn back.
Although this Legion has always maintained a consistent good style before and always stays out of the internal fight, Loren cannot pin his hopes on the quality of the opponent, so this elite must be pulled away from the Imperial Capital.
In this way, no matter how much the nobles in the city toss, the Byrne Legion who stays behind can also ensure that it is suppressed at a critical moment and not let the logistics line collapse.
To ensure the back line, the front line battle is equal to half of the win; as for the Sackland Legion Loren, who has been drawn to the battlefield, there are ways to do it, whether it is the reserve team or let them top the front line, or even do it. Okay, this group of people are mentally prepared for their defection.
Although this probability is indeed very low.
"The remaining army will garrison the key defenses and warehouses in the Imperial Capital city, and assist the Imperial Family guards and guard Legion to maintain their continuity just in case. You don’t need to go out of the city to fight, and you don’t need to consider logistics for them. Question."
"Yes, but just the accounts of all the army, the Chamber of Commerce, and the warehouse..."
"If you are using the Duke of Bayne's Golovin If you think of the title of Guardian for personal gain, I advise you to die!"
On the other end of the long table, Victor Xiu, the Queen’s Justice, sat next to Princess Zhang Feitlani. Snorted, coldly snorted interrupted Jr. Yodd.
Yes, Princess Zhang, Fitronay and the entire imperial cabinet. This is one of the reasons why Loren must stay in the Vault of Heaven.
Even if it is given the authority to rule the Imperial Capital Golovin, the Imperial Assembly is still trying to limit Loren’s power; one of them is to require him to report all affairs to Fitronite, who has the power Absolutely public.
Although it seems to Loren that the long Her Highness the Princess does not seem to have any interest in politics, she has been silent from the beginning of the meeting to the present, relying on the firm maintenance of Victor Hughes to maintain her final existence. feel.
In this case, Loren is happy to ignore her and maintain this harmonious relationship.
"In the name of the Imperial Cabinet and the Imperial Council, I assure you that the empire will never interfere with the normal logistics and trade relations; but if I notice that you have any other ideas..."
"Yes, we cannot refuse goods from Byrne, but we can refuse you-you and any of your subordinates, anyone with the surname Yod, will be expelled The gate of Imperial Capital!"
The harsh words echoed in the hall, and the sneered little Yod shook his head and stopped speaking.
Victor Seuss’ threat sounds scary, but it sounds no different from bowing his head and being soft; as long as he can make money, Jr. does not care if he is an "unwelcome person" ".
"The logistical problem ends here, and the next is the deployment of the army." The black hair wizard turned the topic and looked towards the Grand Duke Elman and the mountain castle count at the other end of the table. .
The serious-faced Yuli Wirtz said nothing, and tried to spread his arms to open the map that was a bit big for him. As for the direction and deployment of the Azorean siege camp, It has been marked on the map in advance.
Almost the moment when they saw the location of the siege camp, all the generals couldn't help being frowned-the reason is simple, because the terrain dominance occupied by the Azores is very good.
The reason is simpler, because the timid Imperial Capital aristocrats never let the defending army go out of the city to harass or attack the enemy, so the Azorean elves on the opposite side can choose the location of his camp at will.
The camp of the Azores can be roughly divided into three parts-the first line of Imperial Capital Avenue in the north, which controls the road to Lothar and Eboden;
East base The first line, which should be the main formation of the little Prince, controls a highland with a tower and castle;
The stream line in the south is a stream and tidal flat area where the Gem River diverges.
The three parts of the camp are linked together, backed by the Gem River, which surrounds the strongest Southern Great Gate of the Imperial Capital, with a total force of about 100,000; a frontal attack on this one occupying the avenue and high ground Strengthening the camp is simply courting death.
Of course, there is no way to crack it-no matter how the camp is arranged, the Azores are impossible to avoid the Gem River, the largest water source; it is the easiest and most effective way to cope with the frontal attack from the river. Method.
But it is a pity that the port of Imperial Capital has become ruins. All ships were either scuttled or burned, and the reason is basically the same as above.
Severin Dessalion was not present, neither Princess Zhang nor the Imperial Cabinet knew nothing about military affairs, so Yuli Wirtz didn’t bother to talk nonsense and started directly:
"If you want to defeat the Azores, the only way is to launch a strong attack from the front!"
"The line of defense that controls the avenue is the strongest, and there are a lot of trenches, earth walls and fences. The only way to fight is It will quickly evolve into a fortified battle; and the enemy will not be stupid enough to allow us to attack. The enemy on the high ground will surely rush down and knock down our fortified army from the flanks;"
"There is a lot of It’s difficult to build a defense, but it’s also difficult to maintain a close line. The only end of a dispersal charge is to be slaughtered by the wizard warrior;"
"As for the enemies of the highlands...they won’t rush without any circumstances. But if we try to attack, they have a condescending advantage; long spear phalanx and shield wall are difficult to play in such places, especially the cavalry;"
"In addition, if I If I remember correctly, the Azores also have a projectile weapon called a "launcher", which can fire beams of flames from a long distance. The formidable power is enough to leave a mark on the city wall of the Imperial Capital and be hit. People... will turn into coke."
"Since their main formation is above the high ground, the location of the projected weapons should also be on it; after the war begins, these terrifying projected weapons will force us to have to as soon as possible Attacking, using explosions and roars to turn us into a dish of loose sand."
"Since it is destined to suffer heavy casualties, why do you support the initiative?" the Royal Justice asked.
"Because of the timidity of the nobles, this has become the last choice with a glimmer of hope!"
The voice of Grand Duke Elman was squeezing raging anger.
"I don't want to talk more about what if...so we must take the initiative to fight, and if we want to defeat them, we must meet two conditions." took a deep breath, Yuli Wierzcold coldly said:
"First of all, we must take advantage of the foggy weather that is in the early morning-only then can we slightly obscure the enemy's vision and launch a surprise attack;"
"Secondly, we must do everything Possibly capture that high ground; we can only take the initiative if we occupy the high ground, otherwise the condescending enemy will kill us thoroughly."
"So our army must also be divided into three parts, from Attack in different directions-avoid too concentrated forces and become a living target for the enemy to project weapons!"
"Elman Legion will attack from the tidal flat...We have the least force, but if we want to contain it Enemy, there is no more suitable candidate than Elman’s Swordsman with both hands."
Yuli Wiertz glanced at Loren and continued after confirming that the black hair wizard did not interrupt his thoughts: "And Byrne Legion focuses on the front line of the Empire Avenue, and at the same time, it is necessary to set aside sufficient reserves to take care of Elman Legion and guard against the enemies of the high ground;"
"Of course, only fifty thousand Byrne Legion is not enough to complete The combat mission of the two battlefields, so Sackland Legion must also go into battle, nailed to the high ground, blocking the enemy's charge."
"And then?" Victor Hughes asked.
"Then it depends on who collapses first." Grand Duke Elman answered very directly: "If the enemy retreats and defends the high ground, it is only a matter of time before they besiege them; if the avenue or the tidal flat battlefield wins a turn, then Can support the highland army; if the two battlefields are completely destroyed..."
"Then the battle is over." Loren gently opened the mouth and said.
Uli Wirtz is slightly nodded.
In Loren's plan originally, he hoped that Holy Cross Church would stand up or send a group of elite vow Knights to cooperate with Sackland Legion to block the enemy's offensive in the high ground.
He guessed that the church might refuse or put forward various requirements or conditions, but didn't expect Holy Cross Church to close the door and stay out of the matter; there is still no news, even unwilling Any contact with yourself.
Surprised is surprised, what should be done is still to be done.
"Below the high ground, I will gather Byrne's long spear phalanx here to defend it, and the Rock Fort count Guy Angelt will lead the foot battle Knight in charge of the monopoly. As for the Sackland Legion ......"
"I will lead."
Fitlownet, who was always silent, suddenly opened the mouth and said.
In front of the long table in the cabinet hall, there was a full minute of silence.
"Why, didn't you hear clearly?" Her Highness the Princess, who felt like he was being ignored, frowned slightly: "Then I will say it again. ......"
"This is absolutely not possible!"
Victor Hugh's complexion changed in shock, and he stood up sharply almost instinctively: "Long Her Highness the Princess, you are willing to be the empire And Zhan’s mood is good, and we can understand it, but at this time, letting the empire’s second in line heir to leave the sky palace, this is really..."
Fitlownet interrupted with a wave. The judge who lost one's head out of fear silently looked towards black hair wizard with no emotion:
"You rejected my second request, so this time I changed one. It should be fine. Did you agree?"
"Do I have a choice?"
Loren asked rhetorically.
"No, unless you plan to accept 10,000 Zaclan Legion refuses to accept your order."
"Then it is decided."
