I traveled through time and became a slave, and the noble lady was obsessed with me

Chapter 540 Don’t do anything unprepared

Duke Ang finally chose to return to the Iron Kingdom and handed over the frontline command to several major staff around him.

What happened in the Iron Fortress, several staff officers deliberately suppressed the news and did not spread to the front line, so as not to shake the morale of the army.

On the other side, Chen Fan also led the advancing army and rushed to Blizzard City.

This is a standard military fortress, but it is located at the back.

When the orc army gathered in Rock City, there were no orcs here, which was just a hiding place for the advancing army.

When the advancing army arrived, the defenders of the city took the initiative to greet them.

When he saw the strength of the advancing legion, the smile on his face became even more exuberant.

With these 100,000 troops stationed in Blizzard City, the defenders can have a good rest during this time.

Chen Fan simply said hello to the guard and began to get busy.

The large troops began to formally move in, the logistics battalion began to clean up the camp that had been vacant for a long time, and the other battalions began to line up and rest.

Here in Blizzard City, Chen Fan met Jarvis.

The Tanma Battalion led by Jarvis arrived here two days in advance. The Tanma Battalion did not settle in Blizzard City.

But from the day they arrived, they were organized into several teams and sent out to investigate the terrain here.

Although all the data here are on the military map with detailed records, Chen Fan is used to being rigorous.

In the newly cleared command post, Jarvis began to report on the intelligence obtained from the Tanma Camp.

"The military maps and various data are all correct and very accurate."

"We have already surveyed that section of the Yongshuang River and found several good locations."

Jarvis began to report in detail, and even every dimple in those locations was explained very clearly.

Although he didn't know why the leader asked him to inquire about this information, he just had to carry it out.

"Ah, very good."

"You will take the craftsman battalion and logistics battalion over there first. Jim will know what to do."

Although they had just settled down, the advancing army had already begun to move.

Chen Fan had planned many plans in advance during the journey here. Now he just came here to execute them, so there was no need to waste time.

Especially if the data is correct, many details do not need to be modified.

Even before they felt hot, tens of thousands of people left Blizzard City and headed towards the location scouted by Tanma Camp in advance.

Before the craftsman camp left, they pushed a dozen ox carts, each of which was fully loaded, but the ruts were not very deep.

This was only the first step. Next, Chen Fan summoned the beast.

"Take ten thousand soldiers and rush to the Yongshuang Iron Bridge, find a place to station, and then go to the Shenniu tribe to reveal their traces."

"You can try to attack their camp, but remember, never go deep, and never engage in a head-on battle."

"If the orcs chase you to your camp, run away. Don't hold on. You can leave more food in the camp."

There are some commands that I don’t understand again.

You can fight but you can't win, you can retreat but you can't defeat.

However, the most mature and stable beast has long been accustomed to Chen Fan's strategizing. Although he showed a bit of embarrassment, he still accepted the military order.

The beast scratched his head and went down. He still had to mobilize his troops and find a few helpers.

After arranging things for the beast, Sarah will be next.

This former female pirate is now a heroic female general.

With her double-edged sword skills, few men in the army could defeat her. "Where are you going to kill the orcs this time?"

"I can't sit still anymore. My hands are too itchy, so I want to find two orcs to chop them."

The carefree Sarah still looked so genuine even in front of Chen Fan.

After all, she was a closer person, and Chen Fan also knew Sarah's character, so he arranged a good job for her.

"There are seven or eight orc outposts between Yongshuang Iron Bridge and Panshi City. We lead the soldiers of our camp to remove these unsightly spots."

Sarah's eyes shone when she heard that she could kill orcs again. Without saying anything, she patted her bulging armor and agreed.

After such a long period of acquaintance, Chen Fan has already clearly recognized the character and abilities of each of his subordinates.

To be a general is to know people and make good use of them.

All he needs to do is arrange the overall situation and plans, and naturally he will have these reliable subordinates to help him solve the next problems.

Less than a few minutes after the 100,000-strong army settled in, half of them were sent out by Chen Fan.

As for the rest, they are temporarily hiding in Blizzard City.

The general attack plan for Duke Ang's decisive battle will be carried out on the next fifth day.

The main thing is to allow the two main attacking legions to rush to the designated area.

Before this, the orc army under Panshi City would definitely not take the initiative to seek help from the Shenniu tribe.

In other words, I still have five days to prepare and make various arrangements.

Thinking of this, Chen Fan couldn't help but look up in the direction of Panshi City.

In fact, at this point, Chen Fan didn't have the slightest worry about whether he could resist the Shen Niu tribe.

In Chen Fan's plan, the probability of resisting the Shenniu tribe is very high, and the probability of annihilation is not small.

The only thing to worry about is the frontal battlefield.

The teams on each route, the four legions combined, have a number of more than 250,000.

When the two armies join together, there will be an army of half a million people!

This is already the family fortune of the Iron Kingdom.

However, this is a head-on battle in the wild. Without the help of the fortified city, it would be a head-on confrontation with the orcs.

According to the previous casualty ratio, the ratio between well-trained soldiers and ordinary orcs is one to one, but when facing elite orcs, it is three to one.

This is already the best case scenario.

After all, the orcs still have too great an advantage individually.

Under the rock city, there were nearly 50,000 elite orcs and more than 300,000 ordinary orcs.

If the proportions are exactly as before, there is no guarantee that the orc army will be dispersed.

Although Duke Ang did not say the consequences of failure, Chen Fan knew it very well.

The Iron Kingdom cannot afford to lose!
The destruction of a Crimson Legion had already shaken a war zone for so long.

If these two ace armies were destroyed, no, even if only more than half of them were killed or injured, it would be a huge irreparable loss.

They were afraid that the situation would change from barely maintaining balance now to that of an army of orcs pressing into the territory, forcing them to defend themselves.

Chen Fan let out a deep breath. This feeling of not being able to control the battlefield by himself was really terrible.

Moreover, Chen Fan still didn't know that several legions on both sides had learned that the king was seriously injured before setting off for the expedition, which made matters worse.
