Chapter 439： Surrounded (top)
Linshui City.
The night is dark.
Dozens of candles light up the study room.
Military newspapers kept gathering here, but Colin didn't look at it very much, instead letting them pile up on the desk.
Looking at Colin with a laid-back look, Prince Harrison finally couldn't help but ask: "Teacher, why don't you deal with these military reports?"
"Don't worry." Colin was holding an old sheepskin book in his hand, reading with gusto.
Prince Harrison leaned over and took a look. It turned out to be a copy of "The Heraldry of Nobles in the East of the Glorious Empire".
Study the coat of arms of the nobles in the East at this time?
Prince Harrison was a bit speechless, but he didn't dare to express it, so he had to say in an inquiring tone: "Teacher, can I look at these military reports?"
"Yes." Colin said without lifting his head.
Prince Harrison came to the table, fiddled with the candlestick, and then flipped through the candlelight to read the military newspapers sent over.
Princess Judy is also in the study, but she has fallen asleep on the sofa now.
Ke Lin was worried that she would catch a cold, so he called the maid and took her back to the room.
The study was quiet again, only the sound of flipping the book and the slight noise of burning candles.
Prince Harrison looked at this military newspaper, and the more he looked at it, the more he was frightened.
He couldn't help but raise his head to look at his teacher, but saw that he was still in a laid-back appearance, and he seemed to be really attracted by the coat of arms of the nobles of the East.
wanted to speak a few times, but seeing Colin's concentration, he swallowed the words again.
Then he scratched his head anxiously, fidgeting.
seemed to notice the movement of Prince Harrison, Colin smiled and asked, "What's the matter?"
Prince Harrison said quickly: "Teacher, we are surrounded!"
"Really?" Colin still looks laid-back, and he doesn't seem to worry about it at all.
Perhaps this calmness infected Prince Harrison. He also calmed down from his anxiety, but he still picked up a simple map, ran to Colin and spread it out, and then gestured and explained on it:
"Teacher, our Linshui City is in this location.
Clover City is to the west of us, but now, there have been three eastern troops in the west, and the military newspaper said that there are an estimated 60,000 to 70,000 people!
Besides, we also have a cavalry to the north, estimated to be no fewer than 20,000..."
"Cavalry?" Colin chuckled and said, "There are still cavalry in the East?"
"Of course, the cavalry in the east cannot be compared with the cavalry in the north, let alone the blood cavalry, but teacher, we are in the east after all!
A lone army deep in the army, isn’t it the most afraid of being surrounded? "
"Am I already surrounded?" Colin raised his brows.
"Almost soon!" Seeing that Colin was still looking lazy, Prince Harrison began to worry again. "Teacher, look, our position will only go farther and farther to the east, and there is the Althus Mountains to the south. , Unless we can capture Tinder City, otherwise it will be a dead end!
So, before this encirclement is completely closed, you should quickly gather the blood cavalry, and then lead your army to break through! "
"Collect the blood cavalry?"
"That's right. I think there are only about three thousand blood cavalry in the city right now. The rest of the troops should be scattered around?"
"Not here."
"No...not there?" Prince Harrison was stunned, obviously he didn't expect to get such an answer.
"Then... where is the main force of the blood cavalry?"
Colin turned a page of the book and said lightly: "At this moment, it should have landed in a port south of the Althus Mountains."
Prince Harrison opened his mouth wide and looked at his teacher in disbelief, as if he had no idea what to say.
"Afraid?" Colin laughed at the scared Prince Harrison and joked.
Actually, this time Colin led the army into the east, he didn't plan to bring Prince Harrison and Princess Judy, but he couldn't hold back the two of them having to quarrel together, so he brought these two oil bottles.
In the beginning, Prince Harrison thought this was just a looting trip by the blood cavalry.
grab some things near Alfalfa City, and then quickly evacuated.
Because the orc invasion is imminent, although the Northern Territory controls the Nushui River, it is impossible to march into the Eastern Territory. Therefore, it is impossible for the blood cavalry to go deep alone at this time.
But now, it doesn't seem to be the case.
Colin was obviously not satisfied with simple plunder, and the Eastern Border didn't seem to want the Northern Earl to leave easily.
"I...I am not afraid." Prince Harrison said immediately.
Colin glanced at his student, smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, even if we are truly defeated and captured, the people of the East will only respectfully send you and Zhu Di back to the Dragon City."
"Teacher, I am worried about you!" Prince Harrison said anxiously.
Colin laughed, put down the sheepskin book in his hand, and asked: "Are you worried that I can't run away?"
Prince Harrison nodded solemnly.
If the blood cavalry were all around, then Prince Harrison wouldn't be too worried.
After all, with the powerful combat effectiveness of the blood cavalry, even if the people of the East Territory set up an encirclement around Linshui City, Ke Lin can lead his army to stand out.
But, if the main force of the blood cavalry is not...
Prince Harrison panicked a little.
Colin looked confident and smiled: "Harrison, in fact, the best strategy for a battlefield game is to surprise."
"Surprisingly?"
"That's right. Just don't play cards according to the routine, so that your opponent can't guess your next move and real purpose."
Prince Harrison fell silent, thinking carefully about the meaning of Colin's words.
After a while, he raised his head again and asked: "Then sir, what is your real purpose this time?"
"What do you think?" Colin did not answer, but asked rhetorically.
Prince Harrison hesitated and said, "It should be Bailu City, right? You made a bait in Linshui City to attract the attention of the Eastern Army. It should be that you want the main force of the blood cavalry to take the opportunity to capture Bailu City, right?"
"That's right." Colin nodded.
His real purpose is actually more than this, but he will not disclose more information to Prince Harrison.
Prince Harrison thought he understood Colin's overall plan, and couldn't help but speak again:
"Teacher, with all due respect, I think there is a big problem with your plan."
"Tell me."
"First of all, you personally acted as a bait in Linshui City, trying to attract the attention of the people of the East, so that the main blood cavalry can successfully attack Bailu City, but if the East is surrounded by Linshui City and keep you behind, then Isn't the gain more than the loss?
What's more, the main force of the Blood Cavalry may not be able to successfully capture Bailu City. I know that the Pegasus Legion was completely wiped out by you under Silver Moon City. It is worrying that you have just rebuilt the combat power, but after all, they have a strong city to defend, and the Blood Cavalry also Without carrying a siege weapon, I am afraid it will be difficult to conquer Bailu City, right?
Even if the blood cavalry had captured Bailu city miraculously, it might not be able to defend it with just a few people.
Therefore, I think your plan has great risks, but the benefits are..."
Colin nodded and said, "Your analysis makes sense. However, some key factors are missing."
"What are the key factors?"
"For example, UU reading , why did I unconditionally release Evan Evan when I was in Alfalfa City?"
Without waiting for Prince Harrison to think about it, Colin went on to raise a series of questions:
"For another example, how will the Marquis of Vincent face the current situation when he returns to Bailu City?
For another example, when the Duke of Saint-Pros learned that the main target of the blood cavalry was Bailu City, would he ask the lord of the East to return to the army for support?
And if the Lord of the East insists not to return aid, but insists on encircling and suppressing me, what would the Duke of St. Pros think?
There are also the Hall family, the Brugen family...and so on, how will the lord of the east make a choice? "
Prince Harrison suddenly did not know how to answer these questions.
Colin smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and said:
"Let's take a good look. The real battlefield is chaotic and complex, and it changes rapidly. You can't draw conclusions by deducing it there."
"I see, teacher, I will definitely learn!"
Looking at Prince Harrison with a serious face, Colin smiled and nodded, but he secretly complained—
Learn a fart!
You have no kinship.
