The King of Knights in a Different World

The twelve knights who originally guarded the south had already been killed, and grass began to grow on the graves.

When such news came.

All the generals were stunned, and for a moment, their brains went blank.

I don't know what happened.

After a long time, Charlemagne was the first to react.

"South...on the sea"

He simply spit out two words.

"From the current situation, this is the only possibility.

Marshal, all the southwestern part of France has fallen and the way of retreat has been cut off. The current situation is very unfavorable for us. Please plan early."

Henry began to persuade him at this moment.

"Not only that.

There are worse things."

Richelieu's expression became a little ugly.

He thought of something more deadly.

"What do you mean?"

Dion asked immediately.

Henry at this time said what Richelieu did not say.

"Empire.

Archbishop means King City.

The defensive force of the royal city is only 10,000.

We are stuck here again, if Britain attacked the city at this time..."

They didn't doubt the whole fall of the south.

If Lucifer leads 50,000 people here, it is entirely possible to level the south.

After all, most of the noble soldiers in the south were taken away, and the remaining troops encountered Lucifer's army.

If you don't want to die, you can only surrender.

Although the king's city is strong, it does not have much defensive strength.

They don't know exactly how many people Lucifer had in total.

Verdun's is fifty thousand, but there is no more in other places, but time has not allowed them to think too much.

"Master Marshal, please let me lead my troops to counterattack Verdun immediately."

Na Mo immediately stood up and asked for orders.

"Yes! Counterattack! Must counterattack."

Monteban also said at the same time.

"How many people are you going to take to counterattack"

Floresmat asked rhetorically at this time.

With a single sentence, he made the two next to him completely miserable.

Judging from the current situation, at least one hundred thousand talents must be brought to counterattack.

Success is based on the premise that the British army on the opposite side does not act at the same time.

"..."

The people next to him fell silent together.

Although it was a counterattack, it was also a siege.

If it doesn't attack, the army that went out will have nowhere to go.

"We have lost our best opportunity to counterattack.

Compared to the counterattack, I think the Knight King's tactics for taking Verdun are somewhat familiar."

Richelieu did not immediately talk about the counterattack, but paid attention to Lucifer's tactics.

He looked at Flores Matt.

At this time, Floresmat naturally understood what the other party meant.

"That was the tactic that Marshal Lothar used to deal with him, but he saw through it.

Unexpectedly he used it on France now."

He said calmly.

When he heard this news before, he felt a little familiar, until now he has fully confirmed it.

"The despicable King of Britain stole the tactics of the late Marshal!"

Montebain cursed Lucifer's vile methods loudly.

He can only vent like this now.

"This is why I think the timing is not right.

From the current point of view, the King of Britain knows France very well, very well.

Even use our tactics appropriately.

But we don’t understand him."

"Understand that there is a fart, whoever has beaten it will know it."

"In the face of an enemy who doesn't understand, how to fight if he immediately counterattacked yesterday, it would not be without a chance.

But today, we have no chance.

Marshal, how many more days can we eat now?"

Richelieu changed the subject at this time.

What he said just now was still to his face. He didn't say that you are going to counterattack now. If there are fewer people, you will...

There are too many people, and the British side is following you, and a dead letter is still written on the face.

For this reason, he can only shift the topic to the most serious problem at present.

"As far as I am concerned, if I have not been replenished, the stored grain will take less than a month."

Dieng immediately told about their situation.

He has been managing the food during this period, and he is very clear about these things.

Another bad news once again caused a burst of "..."

"Why is there such a big difference.

I remember that the food stock in such important fortresses is usually half a year."

Roland asked at this moment.

"Because there are more people.

Originally, the food store here did not consider the amount of support for nearly 400,000 troops.

It was okay for Verdun to send food every ten days, but if not.

We may not last a month."

Flores Matt tells the current situation.

Originally, the garrison here was only 200,000 at the most.

It's fine now, but it suddenly doubled and stayed long.

Nothing is wrong.

"..."

"How long can the King of Britain last?"

Charlemagne looked at Richelieu seriously.

"do not know.

But when the south side is occupied, he can be replenished, plus Verdun’s previous stock, if he has only 50,000 people, it will definitely take longer than us."

Richelieu gave the answer.

There is no need to think about Lucifer's food shortage.

Not to mention that from the current situation, the south can support him, even if it is only the food in Verdun, it is definitely enough for him to use it for two months.

"One month! What should I do now?"

Ah Fu said desperately.

What he said speaks to everyone's heart.

Before they could wait for the opponent's attack, but now, if they continue to stay, they will run out of food after a month.

There is no need to fight at all.

"It's terrible.

The king of Britain occupied Verdun, and if he didn't take it back, the food would never be sent in.

But now no one can take it back."

Oliver said the key point in front of him.

Their rear was cut off and food was cut off.

The retreat was also blocked, and if it is not retaken, it will only be a matter of time before the battle is defeated.

But no one of them can take it back.

"Not necessarily! The north, how about Ganilon going south. If it is him, he might lead the army in the north..."

At this time, Roland expressed his opinion.

But it was immediately rejected by Charlemagne.

"To let Ganilon go south is to put Rome directly into France."

"..."

Before they had defeated Britain, it was already troublesome enough.

Now if Rome enters France again, then it will be...one country fights two countries.

The pressure is much greater than it is now.

Even if they were to fight against Britain, Rome would directly conquer the royal city.

They have no place to cry.

"It will take at least half a month for General Ganilon to move his army south.

What will happen during this period of time is beyond our control.

His strength is not enough."

Richelieu also disagrees with this plan.

If Britain is a wolf, Rome is... a tiger, and it won't be easy to let anyone in.

As the archbishop of the church, he especially understood the virtues of Rome.

Because of historical reasons, Rome is very hostile to the church.The strongest period of the church was...development in Rome.

As a result, the mad king Romulos II was dissatisfied with the church's interference in Rome's internal affairs, so he directly dispatched five 55 Roman legions to crush the church.

The church's strongest armed holy knights at the time was bloodbathed in that disaster, and none of them survived.

If it weren't for the pope at the time to stabilize the mad king with a secret room and past oaths, the church might simply disappear.
