King: Start with tauren plowing

Chapter 5 Withdrawal?

A group of soldiers in linen single-clothes lined up neatly and marched "treading".

A fiery red flag was swaying in the wind, with a white skull painted on it. Looking closely, the pale white skull seemed to be smiling.

Under the banner was a blond man wearing a silver chain armor riding a black horse. The sun shone on his tall nose and cast shadows on both sides, making his facial features more three-dimensional.

"Lord Baron, it would be great if we could fight the army of the Silver Fox family." A man with a horizontal scar next to the blond man raised his head and said.

"why?"

"I'm jealous of their armor. The knights of the Silver Fox family are all in iron armor, like iron bastards, and the rest of the sergeants are also wearing leather armor. Our soldiers train harder than them, and they are also courageous. But No good armor, no good weapons."

Charles said confidently: "There will be all of them. Let's compare the best ones. The soldiers of the Violet family in the west are all wearing iron armor. Sooner or later, I will let every Noxus Household soldiers have sharp weapons and solid armor."

Abdekad with the scarred face led Shire's war horse, and also laughed happily: "Master Shire, that's not enough, someone like me should be equipped with a war horse anyway."

"Hahaha, there are orcs everywhere on the prairie in the north, or I will find you a centaur to ride this time."

"Master, please don't, I can't afford enough food to feed him."

The food problem is a big problem in Winter Fortress.

Charles sighed. If he wants to be strong, he must have enough population, and if he wants to have enough population, he must have enough food. Unfortunately, the two major grain-producing areas of the Noxus family have been occupied, resulting in the destruction of Winter Fortress. The price of grain is so high that they can't afford war horses at all.

Otherwise, Charles would not have formed a cavalry, and the reason why he bloodbathed the cavalry in the first place also had this reason.

The interests of the two sides are different. In Cold Winter Fortress, the money to feed one cavalry can feed twenty infantry.

Even if Shire exhausted the wealth of the Noxus family, he would not be able to cultivate a powerful knight order, so Shire was forced to turn his attention to the infantry regiment.

No matter how loyal the knights are to the Noxus family, it is impossible for them to watch their own interests being damaged, let alone they are not that loyal.There is only one way for Charles to get money out of the knights and into the infantry.

While the two were chatting, a young man in a linen singlet, coarse shorts, and carrying a spear ran over panting.

"What's going on?" asked the scarred-faced Abudkader.

"Lord Baron, Legion Commander, more than a dozen scouts sent out have not returned. I feel something is wrong, so I came to report to you." The young man replied cautiously.

"I thought it was a big deal, isn't there just a dozen people, it means that we are getting closer to the Tauren's camp, our scouts happened to meet the enemy's scouts, go back, and report when we find the enemy ” Abdekad was used to killing all his life, and he didn’t even bat an eye when a hundred people died. There were only a dozen of them, so it’s not a big deal.

"and many more!"

The young man was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by the Baron.

"Tell me why you feel something is wrong." Shire knows the importance of encouragement. To be honest, the talent allocation of a county is enough to conquer the world.

Through the history of previous lives, it can be found that Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, conquered the world, and a small Pei County had so many high-quality talents such as Xiao He, Cao Shen, and Fan Kui; Zhu Yuanzhang's main team was from Fengyang, and the main team of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was from Jintian, Guangxi. Are these people inherently utterly intelligent?Charles doesn't think so, it should be in the process of conquering the world, they have grown up through repeated experiences.

Strong military strength is inseparable from excellent talents. Instead of searching for talents all over the world, it is better to cultivate them yourself, find suitable candidates, and put them in suitable positions to hone them. War is precisely the fastest way to train people.

The young man glanced at the baron, then at Captain Abdekad, swallowed, and said loudly: "My lord baron, I found that those scouts were all sent to the northeast, and those scouts didn't come back. I think the tauren's army is likely to be on that front.

And I recalled the experience of fighting the orcs in the past two years. There was almost no incident where the scouts sent in one direction did not return. I suspected that the tauren had discovered us and even set a trap. "

As soon as this remark came out, Charles looked at him appreciatively, whoever said that serfs were ignorant, this kind of reverse thinking, ordinary literate nobles might not be able to possess it.

"What's your name."

"My lord, my name is Andre."

"Okay, from now on you will be the scout captain of the Noxus [-]st Infantry Regiment."

"Thank you, Lord Baron."

"Immediately send more scouts to find out the situation in the northeast."

"As ordered."

After Andre left, Charles continued: "Abudekad, give me an example of scout information detection for me to analyze and study, and tell the team leaders below more, so that they can understand it. There is no need for scouts to report at all times, and a lot of information can be obtained just through their casualties."

"Master, I understand. When I go back, I will definitely analyze this example with the captains of the Nokasas [-]st Infantry Regiment, so that everyone can learn a lesson."

Abudkad paused for a moment, then continued: "Master, according to the information, isn't the tauren army to the north of us? Could something be wrong."

"It may be a fallacy in intelligence, or it may be that the news has leaked. Things will never catch up with changes. Let the scouts figure out the situation before making a decision."

A dark cloud hung over the hearts of the two of them. If the tauren were prepared, it would be as difficult as heaven for Noxus soldiers in their early thousand to defeat three to 4000 tauren head-on.

"Is it going to fail?"

Charles glanced at the sky, did the Noxus family's road to revenge end before it even started?
Two hours later, Andre, who had just been promoted by Charles as scout captain, came over anxiously: "My lord, there is indeed a brigade of tauren in the east, and there are three rows of tauren from south to north. There must be thousands of tauren."

Abudkad, the head of the group, was taken aback. It must be that the tauren tribe discovered their existence. Otherwise, who would they be able to defend against? There must be no chance for a sneak attack. He glanced at Shire and asked: "Lord Baron , what shall we do next?"

Charles was silent for a moment, then asked, "Andre, is there any other news?"

"A scout vaguely saw a large cloud of smoke and dust in the camp of the tauren tribe. It seemed that there was a commotion inside, but the scout was too far away and couldn't see clearly."

Abudkad didn't relax when he heard the suspected good news. So what if the tauren's internal turmoil, the formation of thousands of tauren is enough for them to eat a pot, and this may also be a trick to lure them to attack. He thought for a while and said, "Master Baron, do you want to withdraw the troops?"

Andre on the side also looked over. According to the information he knew, the hope of victory in this war is indeed slim.

It is wise to withdraw troops to avoid the edge temporarily.
