The Original Vampire
Chapter 616: road encounter
Latest website: On the boulevard, four knights escorted Marquis Garcia to the west.
As it approached noon, the Erich knight made the truce horse and said:
"Stop and rest, and continue on the road in a quarter of an hour."
"Yes!"
The knights dismounted one after another, took out the jerky jug and began to eat.
Marquis Garcia also sat down against a willow tree by the side of the road, but he didn't seem to have any appetite. He rejected the food handed by Knight Erich, and just sat silently in a daze.
Seeing this, Knight Erich didn't force it, and ate it by himself.
But before he finished eating, he suddenly put down the food and lay down on the ground, one ear pressed against the ground.
The rest of the knights also became alert when they saw this.
After a while, Knight Erich's expression changed slightly and said:
"A convoy is coming in our direction!"
Hearing the words, the knights immediately got on their horses, and at the same time surrounded Marquis Garcia faintly in the middle.
It didn't take long for a convoy to appear in the distance.
Knight Erich squinted and watched for a moment. After seeing the flag of the team, he breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"It's the frame of the royal family."
Everyone also relaxed and watched the convoy in front slowly approaching.
Erich Knight obviously recognized the guards in the convoy and hurried forward to salute.
The curtain opened, revealing a beautiful face.
"Your Highness the Queen!"
Queen Midella nodded, in response to the greetings of Knight Erich, then her eyes turned to Marquis Garcia and asked:
"Are you going to Storm Fortress?"
"Yes, Your Highness. At His Majesty's order, I will bring Marquis Garcia to meet him."
Queen Midella smiled slightly, looked at Marquis Garcia and said:
"Then we happen to be on the same road, brother, come up and let me have a few words with you."
Marquis Garcia got into the carriage.
Knight Erich was also not easy to stop, but he winked at the accompanying knights, and then quietly surrounded the carriage.
After all, these two are brothers and sisters, who knows if the queen will sympathize with Marquis Garcia and take him away.
The convoy moved on.
"Why are you here?" Marquis Garcia looked at his sister indifferently, as if not expecting her to come.
Queen Midella snorted softly and said, "It's not because of you, my good brother, you made this war like this, can I still come to the front to see it?"
Marquis Garcia said lightly: "You don't understand the military, it's better to stay behind..."
Queen Midella sneered and interrupted: "I don't understand the military, then, dear brother, the military genius in the north, can you explain to me, what exactly is this, escaping from the battle and causing the fall of the west? Strategy?"
Marquis Garcia seemed a little impatient, but looking at the persistent Queen Midella, he simply explained a few words:
"The Heavenly Broken Mountains are not the best battlefield for blocking, and fighting the orcs there will only exhaust the vitality of the empire.
Therefore, the orcs must be put in, so that they can occupy a part of the land and vent their accumulated killing desire.
In this way, the will of the orc army to fight will be weakened, and more importantly, we can choose a better battlefield for decisive battle..."
Hearing this, Queen Midella interjected: "I heard that you went directly to the Loire Valley to set up camp after withdrawing from the front line. No matter how your majesty urged you, you would not lead the army into the storm fortress. Is it in your heart, Lu Is the Vaal Valley the best battleground?"
"That's right."
"Why?" Queen Midela looked puzzled, "The Loire Valley has nowhere to defend, while the Storm Fortress is one of the empire's most war fortresses."
"The Storm Fortress is indeed strong, but it is not a city that the orcs must conquer."
Queen Midella was slightly startled.
Marquis Garcia continued to explain: "You must know that the way the orcs fight is very different from our way of fighting. They don't need logistics, they all rely on looting for food and drink. Although the storm fortress blocked the door to the Red Flame Territory from the West, it Not a strategic location that the orcs must conquer.
They can completely bypass the mountains next to Storm Fortress.
The orc army is all light infantry, with no baggage, and each is an expert who has climbed mountains and mountains. Don't forget that they came over from the Tianduan Mountains. "
Queen Midella frowned slightly, then asked:
"What about the Loire Valley? Why is it a better battlefield?"
"There is only one city that the orcs must conquer - the Dragon City. To go to the Dragon City, the orcs must cross the Loire River." Marquis Garcia dipped a little tea and drew a simple drawing on the side wall of the carriage. Topographic map, continued:
"The biggest problem with the orc army is that they don't have boats, so they can't cross the upper and middle reaches of the Loire River, which is deep and flowing. It takes too long to cut down trees and build ships, and there may not be so many craftsmen who know how to build ships in the orc army. .
Therefore, the best place for them to cross the river is in the valley plains of the lower Loire.
The Loire River is divided into countless branches here, and the water is shallow and gentle, and it is completely possible to swim.
If the battlefield is placed here, the scattered river network will naturally divide the orc army, making them unable to support each other in time. "
Queen Midella was perplexed and couldn't help but ask, "Then what? Do we humans have any advantage in fighting in this environment?"
"Cavalry." Marquis Garcia explained, "Humans have cavalry, but orcs don't. Therefore, in the valley plain, we can use the mobility of cavalry to quickly concentrate our forces, form a local advantage, and fight a war of annihilation!"
Queen Midella still frowned: "But even if you use this method to annihilate one or two orc armies, what's the use? Humans will still be at a disadvantage as a whole."
Marquis Garcia smiled slightly and said, "What if it was the Orc Emperor's direct army that was annihilated?"
Queen Midella raised her brows and seemed to understand what Marquis Garcia meant.
Marquis Garcia went on to explain:
"Saruman was born in the Warsong Tribe, so this huge army of orcs~www.readwn.com~ is truly loyal to his direct line army, that is, the Warsong Legion with a total strength of about 50,000.
As long as we concentrate our superior forces in the Loire Valley and annihilate the Warsong Legion, or at least crippling this army, even if we lose as a whole, we have actually destroyed the foundation of the existence of the Third Orc Empire.
Without his direct army, Saruman's control over the other orc tribes would immediately plummet.
Now the orcs have conquered the whole of the Western Territory, and most of the Scarlet Flame Collars that are about to be acquired, such a vast land is enough for these tribes to divide.
You say, if there is no military deterrence, are the orcs of other tribes willing to risk their lives and continue to fight with humans? "
Queen Midella's eyes finally lit up, apparently agreeing with Marquis Garcia's strategy.
Marquis Garcia took a deep breath and said coldly:
"When Saruman gradually loses control of the orc army, it is the real start of the human counterattack!"
