Chapter 293 Invasion across the board (addition for the head, 35)
Grand Duke Buck secretly sighed in his heart, talents are rare, and talents with both wisdom and courage are even rarer.
After careful calculation, there are quite a few champion knights under his command, but there are really not many who can stand alone.
Having said that, those people with simple minds and single-minded temperaments seem to be more likely to become champion knights.
Because there is another characteristic of this kind of person, that is, they are more persistent, persevering, and it is easier to persist when they believe in one thing.
On the contrary, those smart people, who are attracted by too many things, are more likely to be distracted, and have a full stomach, unknowingly use their brains and embark on the road of saving effort.
The road of champion knights prefers people who take one step at a time. When using labor-saving methods, it also means that they are on a wrong path and need to spend more time and energy to correct.
But once a smart person succeeds, his achievements will definitely be higher than those of a single-minded guy, because this person must have great perseverance, and the ability to explode with a smart mind is far from what ordinary champion knights can match. The most typical The representative is Di Kelong.
It's not that Grand Duke Buck didn't think of Di Kelong, but the differences between the two sides' ideas are too great, let alone whether the other party is willing to surrender.
Even if it was Ken, Duke Buck would not dare to use it.
For Grand Duke Buck, it is best for such a person to die, but the difficulty of the other party is beyond imagination.
Originally, Di Kelong ran to the Yongye Army Commander, and the trouble had already been resolved, but he did not expect that the Yongye Army Commander was his biggest potential opponent for the Swamp of Despair.
It's fine if you didn't know it before, but you know the existence of the Yongye Army Leader.
Grand Duke Buck naturally attached great importance to it, and before fully invading the Swamp of Despair, try to weaken the strength of the Yongye army leader as much as possible and distract their attention.
The first thing Duke Buck thought of was political skills, and it just so happened that the leader of the Yong Ye army had a weakness in front of him. Punch first, of course.
The leader of the Yongye army called his move Tiaohu Lishan, but Duke Buck called it throwing stones to ask for directions.
After all, the angles and information of the two parties are not equal.
The news brought by Sir Kleist was superficial after all. Although Duke Buck was aware of the threat from the Eternal Night Army Commander, how powerful is the opponent? How many soldiers are there to fight? How prepared are you to venture into the Swamp of Despair?
That is totally unknown.
If the other party continues to hide in the Andes Mountains, even if it takes another ten or eight years, Grand Duke Buck will not be able to figure out its situation.
It's not that Grand Duke Buck didn't try to capture the merchants of the Eternal Night Army Leader, and wanted to open a gap from them to understand the situation of the Eternal Night Army Leader.
But never found a chance.
Due to the fact that the status of Baron Yongye has not yet been confirmed, the ships led by the Yongye army are very restricted on the Jacob River, and the farthest is only the river under the control of Countess Angelberna of the Manyu army leader. The section is free to come and go, and it is only a short 200 kilometers to the regent princess's fiefdom.
Most importantly, I don't know because the situation of Man Yu's army is too chaotic, or because of the usual style of Yongye's army, these merchant ships come and go in groups, surrounded by warships and warships of Yongye's army. .
After arriving at the land, it was also loaded and unloaded by the locals, and the people led by the Yongye army lived and boarded on the merchant ship. After finishing their work, they immediately turned around and returned without stopping too much.
The time card is accurate to the minute, and the people on the merchant ship are not so much merchants as they are forbidden soldiers.
In desperation, Duke Buck could only send an elite team led by the champion knight to take a risk.
As a result, the front foot took the person away, but the back foot was discovered.
The situation at that time was like stabbing a hornet's nest, not one, but three.
Not only the warships and merchant ships led by the Yongye Army on the Jacob River were all mobilized, but even the forces of the Regent Princess Sophilia and the Countess Angelberina were also mobilized to search and hunt frantically.
The captured businessman led by the Yongye Army was a die-hard guy. As long as he was awake, he would shout loudly to attract the attention of his own people, and he didn't care about his own life at all.
In that case, not to mention asking for information, the escape of their elite team has a lot of luck.
As for the prisoner, there was no chance of bringing him out, so he had to sink his body to the bottom of the river.
Grand Duke Buck is not afraid of tearing himself apart with the leader of the Yong Ye army, but the relationship with the regent princess still has to be maintained.
Although the leader of the Yongye army failed to follow the vine and found Duke Buck, he had already alerted the enemy, and the leader of the Yongye army took stricter precautions.
If you want to start again, you must have more rigorous plans and methods.
Grand Duke Buck could only think of other ways to obtain the information he wanted.
Transferring the Eternal Night Army Leader from the Andes Mountains, especially the Byron Alliance, so that he can observe closely, speculate and evaluate the entire situation of the Eternal Night Army Leader from a single point, is also an unavoidable method.
The reaction of the leader of the Yongye army proved the correctness of Duke Buck's guess. The other party is trying to join the Byron Alliance. This baron is a step up, more important than imagined.
Successfully lured Xiao En, the supreme ruler of the Eternal Night Army, out of his lair.
Before this, Grand Duke Buck was not sure about the weight this young man occupied in the Yong Ye army.
But judging from the posture displayed by the other party, it was much heavier than he estimated.
The number of ships mobilized also made Grand Duke Buck secretly startled. The potential of the Yong Ye Army Commander was far greater than expected.
Before that, Grand Duke Buck also made two-handed preparations.
If the Eternal Night Army leads the fleet of envoys, if it is too simple, they will take the momentum of thunder and directly capture the king first, take down their leaders, and let them fall into short-term chaos or internal power struggle.
If the fleet dispatched by the other party is strong enough, he is not considered a failure, but has successfully achieved another strategic goal - to divide the naval forces of the Yongye Army Commander.
Without this hand, these warships are likely to become an obstacle for them to enter the Swamp of Despair.
The only thing that Grand Duke Buck couldn't understand was that Sean didn't seem to be in a hurry to accept the award, and he happily started selling products from his own territory and started a business there.
No matter what the result is, now the arrow is on the string and has to be launched.
Political means are only an auxiliary tool to achieve final victory.
It is important to say that sometimes it is indeed important. The outcome of many wars has already been determined in the political game.
It is not important to say that it is not important sometimes, and it depends on military strength in the end.
The battle between the Carter army leader and the Yongye army leader for the Swamp of Despair belongs to the latter, and now it is time to show their swords.
The general attack order issued by Grand Duke Buck, who was far away in the capital of the leader of the Calth army, was led by Shan Ying, and traveled across thousands of mountains and rivers, and landed in the city of Geqi, where Akemesser's camp is located.
After more than half a year of adjustments, Carter's military leader has also initially established an air communication mode.
The mountain eagle that was used was from the leader of the Yongye army, bought at a high price from the leader of the Yongye army through secret channels.
But as long as there are other methods, they don't want to use the messenger mountain eagles from competitors. Who knows if there are secret doors hidden by the other party? What should I do if I return and fly back to the original owner?
These are all possible.
But the timeliness of the bird's message is too obvious.
It's fine if you didn't know it before, but now that you know it, it's hard to refuse.
But looking at the whole of Arshan, the one who used this method most maturely was the leader of Yong Ye.
Others have followed the trend of research, the time is too short, the level of bird training is not enough, the stability can only be said hehe, and the danger similar to the Yongye Army Leader is not a little bit less.
The most trustworthy method of this method is the birds raised by oneself.
But the problem is, everything starts from scratch, and within three or two years, my own birds can't be put into use at all.
Even if they were willing to wait, the Yong Ye army leader would not give them so much time.
According to the news from the intelligence personnel who infiltrated into the Swamp of Despair, the Yongye Army Leader is encroaching on the crocodile tribe bit by bit.
In the past, it was just transporting food, but this year it went too far. It is helping the crocodile people to plant water and food on a large scale.
Once the leader of the Yongye army has a firm foothold among the crocodile tribe, what will happen to their Kingsley family?
Therefore, even if the situation in the Swamp of Despair has not reached the best time to invade, they have to launch a full-scale invasion.
After repeatedly verifying the reliability of Shanying, the Kingsley family decided to use them.
After all, birds are just birds, and their IQs make it difficult for them to distinguish friend from foe, let alone play the complicated game of Infernal Affairs.
Of course, this kind of use is also used with caution. Not only does it use the Yinfu password, which is the usual method of spies, but also uses multi-line confirmation methods, just in case.
The whole army is attacking. Ake Messer gave the order to attack across the board.
Compared with the interlocking of the last march into the Swamp of Despair, the strategy adopted by Akemeser this time is quite satisfactory, and the whole army pushes at a uniform speed.
Along the way, every piece of land that passed through will be repeatedly detected, and some puddles and mud swamps will be filled up as long as they are not too large.
This is a full absorption of the previous experience.
Not only did he keep his retreat well, but he also didn't give the crocodile people a chance to change their lives.
Faced with this menacing situation, the crocodile tribe could only retreat again and again, and the combined army directly pressed down on the bank of the Donau River.
Prepare to rely on the last line of defense to resist.
But this time the Kingsley family came prepared, and warships were also gathering.
Talking about warships is putting gold on their faces.
The good ones look like fishing boats, but most of them don’t even look like fishing boats, just a raft.
The Kingsley family eventually gave up their plan to buy a large number of warships from the Commons family or the Witch Conclave.
It's not just the Commons family who broke their promises, delayed their orders again and again, and threatened them with it.
It was also because they discovered that even if they built a large ship, they could not transport it to the Donau River in the Swamp of Despair. Instead, it was not as convenient as the small boat built in their own territory.
Some even harvest timber on site and build ships on site.
On the first day when the Kingsley family entered the Swamp of Despair in an all-round way, the Elder Council of the Crocodiles was convened.
To be more precise, the Council of Elders has not been dissolved since it was convened a year ago.
Not only is there always the threat of the Kingsley family, but also because the relationship with the Yong Ye army leader is changing day by day, they have to work together to cope with it.
Having been entangled with the Yong Ye army leader for so long, the Elder Council of the Crocodile Clan has not improved at all.
At least after encountering something, it is no longer the same as before, where the pot was blown up at every turn, whispering in a swarm, and now it is gathered in groups of three or four. After the discussion, some representatives throw away their more thoughtful and mature opinions. come out.
One of the representatives took the lead in breaking the deadlock and said: It's not the right way to retreat and defend blindly. We should take advantage of the time when the opponent's army is scattered, concentrate our superior forces, and defeat them one by one. Otherwise, when they pave the road to the riverside, we can only fight on the riverside. Fight to the death, once defeated, there will be no chance to turn around.
What are we going to fight? It's not like you haven't seen the power of the opponent's armor before. Our weapons can't pose a threat to them at all. Are we going to use the lives of the people like last time? I'm afraid even with such an opportunity None, the environment has changed even more against us.
Where's the new army? What about the new army we're training with the Yong Ye army leader? How's the situation now? We've invested so much manpower and material resources in it, so we can't be in vain, right?
The situation of the new army is much better than we expected, and the equipment is all from the Yong Ye army leader, which is barely usable, but we were too timid before, 10,000 new troops, in this situation, the number is too small , The new army trained by each family is mixed, if they are mixed, it is really hard to say how much combat power they can display.
The council of elders fell into a long silence, and a breath called embarrassment flowed.
The same military training method and the same equipment, in the hands of the Yongye army leader and in his own hands, the results are completely different.
This is undoubtedly a blow to their self-confidence, and what hurts them even more is that they cannot find the crux of the problem.
People have strengths, but rulers have weaknesses, which only shows that we are indeed inferior to the leader of Yongye Army in this respect. Elder Weber said, There is nothing shameful in admitting one's own shortcomings. I know what the problem is, but I don’t want to pay attention to it. I personally think that we should not sit still and take the initiative to attack. However, it is not about destroying many enemies, but burning the warships of the Kingsley family. As long as their warships are completely burned, Even if there is no way to defeat them, it will slow down their offensive pace and buy us more buffer time.
It can be seen from this that the Elder Council of the Crocodile Clan is in a relatively pessimistic situation.
What they are considering now is not how to completely defeat the Kingsley family, but to find ways to slow down the Kingsley family's attack.
More recently, a handful of capitulators have emerged.
These capitulators did not fall to the leader of the Evernight Army, but proposed a rather absurd idea, to negotiate a peace with the Kingsley family, and the two sides drew a river to rule, and ceded the west bank of the Swamp of Despair to the Kingsley family.
As soon as this proposal was put forward, it was completely rejected by the Council of Elders.
Leaving aside whether the Kingsley family agrees to this condition, the Yong Ye army leader will never allow such a situation to arise.
Cannibals are short-mouthed and soft-handed.
Now the Council of Elders has no choice but to act with the eyes of the leader of the Yong Ye Army to a certain extent. Who let his lifelines be blocked by the other party?
I think this method is feasible. If there is no warship, the Kingsley family will not be able to cross the river even if they have an army of 100,000. We will not only burn all their warships, but also burn all those suitable for shipbuilding on the north bank. Burn all the trees, and when they want to build a ship, they will have to transport it all the way from the Karth army.”
The opponent will not be ignorant of this, and will definitely be heavily guarded. Take a look at his army layout. This is an out-and-out pocket formation, just waiting for us to hit it.
I have carefully studied Axmesser's pocket array. It seems that it can indeed encircle all sides, but it also means that all sides are weak. When the time comes, we will gather superior forces to attack one side. As long as they penetrate, they will have nothing to do. Weber. The Great Elder said confidently, If we can smash his pocket array once, we can punch through it a second time. There is no 100% sure strategy and tactics in the world, only those with a relatively high success rate. I think this risk is worth taking.
