Su Cheng looked at the big map hanging in front of him, pondered, and said nothing for a long time.
Willie and others also stood quietly behind Su Cheng, waiting for Su Cheng to speak.
But Su Cheng did not ask his subordinates to wait too long.
After pondering for a while, Su Cheng finally spoke:
"Our army is 120,000 and the enemy army is 300,000. The total strength difference is too great, so we have to make good use of the biggest advantage of our Michael Knights - the territory of the Avalon Fortress."
"As long as you defend the Avalon Fortress, the Sheeran army will not be able to attack our army's land."
"The money and food that needs to be consumed to support such a large-scale army for expeditions is simply astronomical."
"Even if the national strength of the Holy Hillan Empire is strong, it cannot withstand the long expedition."
"We just need to hold on to the Avalon Fortress and win."
After hearing Su Cheng's words, many people, including Willie, said in their hearts:
——It seems that the regiment commander also intends to completely defend the Avalon Fortress.
Just when everyone thought Su Cheng's idea was the same as the tactics Gary had just proposed, Su Cheng's words suddenly changed:
"Although I still have to defend, I don't plan to defend without stopping!"
"The scale of the invasion of the Holy Hillan Empire this time is unprecedentedly grand. There are more than 300,000 combat troops alone, so the logistics forces will only be more."
"Since the Holy Hillan Empire dares to launch such a large-scale offensive, it is enough to prove that the Holy Hillan Empire's invasion is serious and will never give up until it achieves its goal."
"That means they are definitely ready for a long-term battle."
"Even if the national strength of the Holy Hillan Empire is not as strong as before, the name of the 'superpower' is still there. Who knows how much baggage they have?"
"If you want to defend without any hesitation and look forward to the Sheeran Army's supply being consumed and then retreat, then I don't know when I will wait."
"So--we have to take the initiative to attack!"
"The first attack of this extraordinary battle - we will fight the Knights of Michael!"
"Our Knights of Michael have the best cavalry team in the entire empire. It would be a waste if it is not only used by the family."
"The vanguard of the Sheeran army has now reached 20 miles north of the fortress, and this distance is suitable for launching a surprise attack."
"We are now calling on the elite cavalry of the Knights and set off immediately!"
"Announced lightning surprise attack on the vanguard of Sheeran Army."
"There is no need to cause much damage to the Sheeran army. It only needs to weaken it and hit the morale of the Sheeran army!"
"In this kind of battle with a huge difference in combat power between the enemy and us, if our army takes the initiative to attack, take the first attack, and successfully completes the surprise attack, it will definitely greatly weaken the morale of the Sheeran army and boost the morale of our army!"
Su Cheng's words were so powerful.
Everyone present immediately felt that the atmosphere was different.
The atmosphere in the command room was dead before, and most people tended to adopt the passive and cautious "head-reducing turtle-style fighting style".
But when Su Cheng came, he took the initiative to attack without saying a word, and used the powerful combat power of our cavalry team to launch a surprise attack on the enemy's vanguard.
This momentum is completely different. Although I don’t know whether this strategy is good or bad, this momentum is there.
Looking at Su Cheng's back, Willy, Alisa and Deng Jiaer were in a daze in front of him.
Suddenly, the three of them seemed to have seen the scene when the Lund Kingdom rescue war was launched three years ago.
After suffering a great defeat in the Battle of Yilun Ferry, Su Cheng, who was ordered to take over the position of head coach in the face of danger, was also like this.
When everyone didn't know what to do, they announced in a powerful way that the whole army would go north to attack the Carolingian Kingdom, lead the enemy troops over and fight again in the wilderness.
No matter what success or failure, this momentum is already there and it is still very strong.
On the battlefield, you can't lose anything and your momentum.
After hearing Su Cheng's words, everyone was still very surprised.
Because Su Cheng’s proposal just now is almost exactly the same as Samuel’s proposal just now.
If it weren't for seeing Su Cheng arrive at the fortress with his own eyes, many people would have doubted whether Su Cheng had just lying outside the command room door and eavesdropping on Samuel's proposal.
Su Cheng was very firm in his opinion. After explaining his opinion, he began to issue orders without saying a word.
Each army of the Michael Knights has 3,000 cavalry, so there are currently 18,000 cavalrymen in the Michael Knights.
For surprise attacks, this number of cavalry teams is too many.
After some consideration and calculation, Su Cheng felt that only 3,000 cavalrymen were needed.
After Su Cheng decided to voluntarily send 3,000 cavalrymen to attack Xilan's army, many knights immediately volunteered to serve as the commander of this surprise attack.
Among the knights who volunteered, there were Raymond, Samuel, Deng Jiaer and others.
This surprise attack is very important. The effect of it directly affects the subsequent battles.
Therefore, after careful and careful consideration, Su Cheng handed over the surprise attack to Raymond.
Raymond was responsible for commanding his 3,000 cavalrymen who were in charge of his 1st Army went out of the frontier to launch this surprise attack.
Raymond was good at cavalry warfare, and the cavalry of the 1st Army, which was trained by Raymond, was also the most elite cavalry team in the regiment. Therefore, Su Cheng handed over the important task this time to Raymond and the cavalry of the 1st Army.
"Raymond, and I'm on the next time."
As Su Cheng said, he took out his pocket watch and looked at the time:
"My pocket watch shows that it's 21:38 p.m., what about you?"
Raymond looked at his pocket watch:
“At 19:38 – the time is correct.”
"Okay, then I'll give you 2 hours of preparation time now. Call your cavalry team of the 1st Army within these 2 hours and prepare for all battles."
"Two hours later, at 23:38, I will see a cavalry team ready to go and prepare for battle at the north gate of the fortress."
"Yes!" Raymond responded loudly.
"Do work hard and don't let my expectations down."
"Yes! The subordinates will never let the leader down! I will definitely beat the Sheerans to fear! Knights of Michael and the might of our Britannians!"
After saying that, Raymond quickly walked out of the command room with his knight sword on his waist and prepared for the victory.
After giving orders to Raymond, Su Cheng turned his head and gave orders to Alisa:
“Alisa.”
Unlike the tough tone he had just given orders to Raymond, when he ordered Alisa, Su Cheng's tone couldn't help but become much softer.
"I am here!"
Although she is Su Cheng’s wife, Alisha has not forgotten that it is now the command room of the Knights’ Order headquarters, and her current identity is Su Cheng’s subordinate.
So after hearing Su Cheng calling him, Alisa immediately responded loudly.
"You go home and help me get my armor and knight's sword."
"By the way, I will also apologize to Alan and Kelol."
"Although I'm back, I'll have to live in the Knights' headquarters for some time and can't go home immediately."
