Chapter 105 Expert Logistics
Lin Bing on the side was a little sad. His troops were not strong enough. On average, they only had a peak combat power of level 2. Compared with orc warriors, there was still a gap in individual strength. It was expected that they were excluded from the main battle direction, but they were a little unwilling to accept it.
Lin Tian saw his unhappiness and solemnly ordered him: "Lin Bing, you can draw 20,000 National Defense Forces, this time the mission is heavier than all of them!" The latter was excited.
"In the Yellowstone Kingdom, a little far from us in the southeast, there have been more than 5,000 orcs gathered. Needless to say, they must have come to us, and the number will increase. I estimate that it will be close to 10,000 people in the end."
"This place is not far from the south of the main force. I need time. I need your troops to firmly hold the enemy. Even if it causes great sacrifices, they must hold them back, so that they will not have one soldier and one soldier to enter the Sunset Kingdom for reinforcement. What do you want to do?"
Lin Bing saluted a military salute and replied: "I will bring the soldiers at the junction to attract the enemy to attack, and then fight with them to hinder the enemy's reinforcements."
Lin Tian sighed and said with some dissatisfaction: "If you follow your plan, I will have to consider changing a commander, because if you do this, the 20,000 National Wehrmacht will basically be destroyed here."
Lin Bing defended a little anxiously: "I am confident that my 20,000 National Defense Forces will not be weaker than the 10,000 orc troops. They will not get much advantage."
"Then I ask you, if you want to eat these 10,000 orcs, how many warriors can you have left? Just be honest."
"I'm afraid, if you command better, there may be about 3,000 people left?" Obviously, there is no confidence.
"According to me, under the same conditions, 20,000 soldiers will fight 10,000 orcs. If both of them are injured, I have to pray to God and Buddha. Don't forget that the task I give you is to hold the enemy down, not to fight hard." The Minister of War thought about it.
"After my main force eats the southern enemy, he will quickly rush to your battlefield. As long as you drag down enough time, we will form the next regional dominant force and annihilate the enemy. There is no need to make such a big sacrifice. These are 20,000 soldiers, each of which is a brave brother. As a commander, we can protect the next one and be one."
"I suggest you send about 5,000 troops first and provoke the enemy on the border. The enemy's troops are better than you, and you will definitely pursue them. Small groups of troops will take the opportunity to pull them back, give up the small villages and towns along the way, and lengthen the enemy's front line. At the same time, the remaining large troops will find a solid city and repair the fortifications. When the enemy's small troops pull the orcs under the city, what do you think they will do? Attack a solid city defended by 20,000 soldiers? Or turn around and leave?"
"No matter how they choose, the best time for them to reinforce the South has passed. At this time, my main force will be able to attack the enemy on both sides with your troops. How about it?"
All the followers' eyes are shining. Is this what the master calls military thought? It's too strong! Although it's a pity to give up some small villages and towns, my king has long said that we should make great strides and retreat, not care about the gains and losses of a city and a place, and to eliminate the enemy's vitality as the top priority. This is the best practical opportunity!
Lin Bing clenched his fists: "Abide by the order!"
His Majesty the New King saw that everyone had no questions, waved and ordered everyone to perform their duties, prepare quickly, and prepare for war. He and Lynch's elite royal guard team went out of the south gate and quickly set out to the predetermined location; the other two routes were still relatively time-consuming, but his route had to be fast.
The 20,000 elite royal guard regiment has followed Lin Tian for many battles, and his morale is high. He does not need to make any oaths or speeches at all. They have not notified anyone at all, and they do not need to send farewells. They only need one thing, that is, victory!
After leaving the city and heading to the avenue, Lin Tian's expert-level logistics skills had a very obvious effect, and the young commander felt it particularly profound. When the master took over the command, the group of bastards under him had never been so strict in their military appearance. The maximum speed of marching was so smooth. Not only was it much faster, but everyone's endurance seemed to have improved a lot at once. Even himself felt that he was walking as fast as he could. The master's divine power was so magical...
Day 2 of the 11th week. Night!
After a long and crazy marching, Lin Tian arrived at the southern border of the kingdom. His thieves sent important information: the orcs in the Sunset Kingdom have completed the assembly first, with a total of 10,000 people and have set out towards the Holy Griffon Kingdom, but they are still marching within the Sunset Kingdom. The formation of the team is an old enemy, more than 5,000 wolf cavalry and 5,000 cats. It is expected that they will enter the kingdom tomorrow afternoon.
Wait here? Or...
Lin Tian hesitated a little. If he waited here, there would be many benefits. He was familiar with the kingdom, had a low level of danger, and had a good mass base. He also didn't need to wait too long. The enemy would arrive tomorrow afternoon.
If you actively enter the enemy territory, the terrain is not very familiar and it is easy to be discovered by the enemy... But this is about the entry of a large army.
Lin Tian quickly made a decision. He ordered the thieves to search for the interrupted search of the enemy and our teams to find a suitable ambush place, preferably within the Sunset Kingdom. He made up his mind that no matter how dangerous it was, he would carry out this ambush within the enemy's territory. Why? Because ambushing in the enemy's territory is the most unexpected to the opponent. They would definitely think that marching at their own home is the safest, and this is the most important condition for the ambush. The so-called darkness under the light!
He ordered the army to camp in the village on the edge, and then waited for messages from the thieves all night.
The thieves who Lin Tian relied on did not disappoint him. They carefully selected several good ambush locations for the owner to choose from. He quickly chose one of them, which was nearly half a day away from the border. According to his own words, this distance was the safe distance the enemy believed to be. This was a must-pass place, and it was the best choice for ambush.
