Tales of the Reincarnated Lord

　　 Chapter 67 Decision

　　 When Fatty Shi, Bodfinger, Terman, Yuri, and Rose came together, they saw Reddy taking a few surrendered guards out of the big tent. When I entered the big tent, I found that there were maps of various sizes everywhere, and a map of animal skins covered with half a desk was also painted with various symbols by Lorist, with annotations on the side.

　　 "What are you doing?" Fatty Shi leaned over to look curiously. After watching for a long time, he couldn't understand what Lorist was doing.

　　 Bodfinger looked carefully for a while before he could see the clue: "This seems to be a military layout and a marching route map?"

　　 Hearing what Bodfinger said, he looked at the label next to him and he suddenly realized: "Are you hitting the idea of ​​Count Cobili?"

　　 Lorist nodded, took a small map and drew a circle on it: "Look, this is the sphere of influence of Count Cobili."

Then I followed the circle I drew and drew an arc outside the circle: "This is the northbound route we originally planned. It just bypassed his sphere of influence. Based on the six to seventy miles a day, it takes 12 By fourteen days. However, we are passing through the wilderness, or the territory of the lost lord has been swept away by the Count of Cobili’s army. Our convoy cannot find a place for supplies, and accidents are prone to occur."

"But if we change our route like this..." Lorester drew a straight line in the circle on the map representing the sphere of influence of the Earl of Cobili: "It only takes seven days, and the road is flat, and supplies are convenient. But this requires a premise. It is to defeat Earl Cobili."

　　 "Have you come up with any solution?" Fatty Shi asked.

"Not yet, I'm just looking for the surrendered garrison to understand some basic information. I have a vague idea, but I don't know what kind of response Earl Cobiliy will make, so I am not sure how to defeat him." Lorris Te shook his head, then took a book and put it on the desk.

　　 "You guys help me think about it, I may not think very well alone. Reddy, go get that Kirov game of chess." Lorist said.

　　 Kirov War Chess is a chess game that imitates war invented by the Marshal Brin Kirov of the Roman Empire a hundred years ago. Lorist feels a bit similar to the chess of the previous life, except that the board is similar to the map of the monopoly game, instead of black and white squares.

"This is the new city of Geldous, which is being built by Earl Cobili imitating the royal capital." Lorist pointed to the book he had put on the desk, and then put two chess pieces in the shape of horse-riding soldiers and four on the book. A chess piece in the shape of a sword soldier: "Currently there are two Lancer squadrons and one garrison squadron in Geldous City. It is worth noting that one of the Lancer squadrons and the two squadrons in the garrison squadron are both The newly formed, combat effectiveness is not very strong. According to the surrendered garrison, there is currently a heavy armored shield guard squad with strength above black iron beside Count Cobili, who is responsible for protecting his safety."

Lorist placed another plate on the desk, and placed a cavalry and an infantry chess piece on the plate: "This is William Mills Castle, stationed with a Lancer squadron and a garrison squadron, nearly one There are more than a thousand people. The so-called noble coalition forces are confronting them with more than 4,000 people. The current situation is that the noble coalition forces have been defeated steadily and are on the defensive. It is a bunch of waste."

After commenting on the aristocratic coalition with disdain, Lorist put another cup on the table, and then put a chess piece in the shape of an infantry in the cup: "Here is Burdock Castle, the manor castle in the original family territory of the Earl of Cobili. There is a garrison squadron. You see, Geldous City, William Mills Castle and Burdock Manor Castle form a triangle, which is a horn of each other. No matter where you attack, you will be flanked by the other two places. Unless you attack. It is the strength of the army, which is several times more than the army of the Earl of Cobili, that it is possible to pull down the outlying William Mills Castle and Burdock Manor Castle and approach Geldous Castle."

"Fortunately, the sweeping force composed of the Lancer squadron and the garrison squadron that originally stationed at Burdock Manor Castle has been wiped out by us. And William Mills Castle sent a garrison squadron to garrison the current Burdock Manor Castle. Another squadron of Lancers participating in the mopping force was also eliminated by us. It has already halved its strength. It is not a concern. My idea is to send troops when there is only one squadron of garrison in Burdock Manor Castle. Pretending to be resistance forces into the family territory of Count Cobili to carry out sabotage activities, enticing Count Cobili to send troops from Geldos City, and then take the opportunity to attack the city of Heldos. As long as you have control of Geldos City and Burdock Manor Castle, Cobili The earl is gone and can't get back to heaven."

　　 "My lord, this idea of ​​yours is very feasible, why are you hesitant?" Bodfinger asked.

"Insufficient troops, there is also concern that the family armed forces of our northbound convoy face up with the Count Cobili's army, even if we win, there will be a lot of casualties. If that way, we will not only lose control of the situation, but also possibly Let other interested people have bad ideas about the team. So I have been thinking about ways to reduce the loss of the family's armed forces. It would be great if one of the Lancer squadrons of Earl Cobili could be eliminated." Lorist smiled bitterly and shook his head.

　　 "My lord, I think our current family armament is obviously stronger than Earl Cobili's army. How do you say that the army is insufficient?" Ross felt strange.

"We have to consider the protection of the convoy. It is impossible for the entire army to be dispatched. I calculated that the only ones that can be dispatched are three squadrons of spearmen, one squadron of heavy armoured lances, and the Knights and Crossbow chariot squadrons. The barracks need to leave a heavy armored Lancer squadron and two spearmen squadrons to protect them. The law enforcement squadron must maintain the order of the barracks, and the main camp guard squadron must take care of the prisoners. Even if they can draw some people, the maximum is two thousand. The left and right forces. And Yuri’s light cavalry left a small group to be responsible for the security around the barracks, the remaining three small groups one as the scout of the large army, and the other two are the main forces to attack the city of Geldous. "

"Earl Cobili's response is what we can only roughly imagine. If he hears a resistance force of more than two thousand people appearing in the family territory, then he is very likely to send out the whole army, which means that the city of Geldous The two Lancer squadrons and garrison squadrons will be dispatched, so that his army will have more than 3,000 people. Moreover, he can also order the nobles of several territories who have taken refuge in him to send troops together, easily bringing his total strength to five. About a thousand people. That’s why I said that if we face his army head-on, our casualties will be heavy, and even if we win, we will lose a lot.” Lorist explained to Rose patiently.

"Oh..." Lorist sighed: "Actually, a few days ago, the Josk Knight said that when I returned to the western mountains to gather those resistance forces and came back to attack the enemy camp, I still had hope. Can I use this victory to defeat the mopping forces? The opportunity to instigate these resistance forces to penetrate into the family territory of Count Cobili to carry out various sabotage operations, let Count Cobili, lose sight of the other, and force him to divide the forces to destroy these resistance forces. At that time, we can gather our forces and wipe out these divided forces one by one. Army, and let those resistance forces be our cannon fodder to reduce the loss and casualties of our family’s armed forces."

　　 "I just didn't think that the resistance forces were all cowards, and none of them were willing to do it. As a result, the Josk Knight was discouraged and prepared to take his people to join us."

Lorist introduced the experience of the Josk Knight and his hatred of the Count Cobili to everyone: "I admire Knight Josk and I hope he can join our Norton family. So I want to destroy the Earl Cobili, This is not only to avenge the caravan of our Norton family, but also to fulfill the wish of the Josk Knights and add a golden level of combat power to the family. So I checked these maps to find a suitable place to seduce Earl Cobili Lancer squadrons can fall into the trap we set. As long as we eliminate another Lancer squadron, we won't suffer much damage even if we face up."

"Knight Josk is also a dedicated person! It is a good thing that he came to join us, we have to help with this." Fatty Shi heard what Josk had happened to him: "But Lord Locke, you seem to ignore A very important piece of information."

　　 "What information is it?" Lorist asked.

"When El was interrogating the surrendered garrison the night before, I heard a garrison next to him say that after they received news of the occupation of the barracks in the western mountains, the **** who commanded the army first sent a few lancers back to the army. The Earl Cobili reported, and then ordered the troops to clean up the camp. The young man with the captives rushed back and launched an attack on the barracks. It took four days to ride from the western mountains to the city of Geldous, which means that today, Earl Cobili only got the barracks. The news of the occupation also knows that the sweeping forces are going to return and re-occupy the barracks. Lord Locke, what you ignore is how Earl Cobili will react when he gets the news and what response he will take." said Fatty Shi.

"En?" Loriste's eyes lit up: "If I were the Earl of Cobili, and after I got the news, plus the weather was not good for the past two days and it had been snowing, then I would definitely be worried about the fate of the raids. I would Reinforced troops were dispatched immediately, and the fastest squadron was the Lancer squadron. The city of Geldous would take three to four days to ride horses to the barracks, that is to say, after three or four days at most five days later Cobili The reinforcements sent by the earl are here, and we still have a good chance."

"Yes. Also, aren't the family members of the Josk Knights still in the western mountains? We should go and take them back with great fanfare. By the way, the rebel forces there trumpeted the news that we have successfully annihilated the sweeping forces, even if they resisted. If the forces don’t believe it, they will send people to check it out. And we invited them to watch our battle to destroy the reinforcements sent by Count Cobili. After the reinforcements are eliminated, we can say that Count Cobili’s men have little strength. , I just took this opportunity to grab a grab at his family territory. I believe those resistance forces will be unwilling to do so, and they will stop frantically. When these resistance forces stir up the family territory of Count Cobili, then we can fish in troubled waters. , First occupy the Burdock Manor castle. If Count Cobili assembles an army, we will gather those resistance forces to form a confrontation with him, and then secretly dispatch the elite to attack Geldous City." Fatty Shi added another hand. fire.

　　 "Okay, that's it." Lorist clenched his fists in excitement: "It shouldn't be too late, Reddy, you go and invite the Josk Knight."

　　 After giving Reddy's orders, Lorist looked at Fatty Stoudemire, Yuri, Terman, Bodfinger and Rose, and suddenly felt very strange: "By the way, why are you here together, what's the matter?"

Everyone just remembered the original intention of looking for Lorist. Fatty Shi said to Lorist with a wry smile: "My lord, your new army establishment is very good. The only omission is that we don’t have enough war horses. It’s almost ready to fight~www.readwn.com~ Fatty Shi said that the original convoy had only more than 700 horses. In the castle of Viscount Mestre, he got dozens of horses. In addition, he had eliminated the sweeping troops and gained two. More than a thousand horses is not enough to add up to three thousand horses. According to the organization specified by Lorris, it requires at least four thousand horses, which is not even the mounts required by the headquarters guards and law enforcement teams. Now Terman, Yuri, Bodfinger, and Rose were all arguing over the allocation of the mounts, so they had to come and ask Lorist to make a decision.

　　 Lorist laughed: "Why don't you feel wronged about the noise? Will someone send me a door after four or five days? It's not promising. When we defeat Earl Cobili, there will be horses and trophies."

　　Lorist refers to the reinforcements that defeated the Earl of Cobili, and a group of war horses was accounted for. Because Lancers are one man and two horses, they have very strong mobility.

Josk came in with Reddy and heard that there was a lack of horses, and he said, "My lord, if you are willing to trade weapons and equipment with the rebellious forces in the western mountains, you can also get a lot of horses. It is estimated that there are five or six hundred. match."

　　 Lorist nodded: "It's fine, but I have to ask you."

　　 Then I introduced the strategy I just decided to Josk.

　　Josk was surprised and delighted: "My lord, are you ready to deal with Count Cobili."

　　 "Yes." Lorester said: "Since he has eliminated so many troops, I just uproot him directly, so that we can save trouble later."

"My lord, I'm willing to serve you..." Josk bent down deeply and bowed ~www.readwn.com~ Book friends are welcome to visit and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works At ~www.readwn.com~ mobile phone users please go to read.
