After Zhou Yunfei decided to prepare for the Northern Expedition, the entire Dragon City began a new round of preparations.
The fifth army and the fifth army in the original five northern fortress clusters were ordered to be transferred back to Longcheng. The cavalry division was again transferred to the northern fortress.[.]
Obviously, behind this unusual move, there must be something shocking.
Many soldiers know that war may be coming again. However, they do not reject it, but are looking forward to it.
"Brother, have you heard? We are preparing for war again!" This began to spread in the streets of Longcheng.
Many people are vaguely aware of certain changes.
"Oh! How can you say that? I'm telling you, I got the exclusive information from my uncle's son's friend. Don't tell anyone else!" The man who was asked looked around carefully, and then pulled
The man who asked the question before spoke softly.
Scenes like this are very common in Dragon City.
Why is an operation that was originally a military secret now viral?
If you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to see the details of the artificial walk behind it.
Obviously, the only one who can do these things under the strict supervision of Longcheng is Longcheng himself.
In order to build momentum in conjunction with the Northern Expedition, Jia Xu and Wei Ze teamed up with the Intelligence Bureau and the Security Bureau to disseminate rumors. First, they muddied the waters so that those who paid attention to Dragon City could get the news.
At the same time, in order to achieve the greatest effect, they deliberately made the news vague, telling people that Longcheng was preparing to use troops on a large scale, but they did not tell people who they would use troops against.
Perhaps this move will make everyone who is guarding Dragon City extremely nervous, so that they can prepare their own military strength. After they are ready, Dragon City just goes to attack the orcs. What will they do with the troops in their hands at that time?
?
It seems that in order to provoke a civil war in Byvost, Zhou Yunfei can't wait to prepare for this good show to be staged in advance.
Back in Dragon City, there are still many things that need to be prepared for the Northern Expedition.
The first point is to arrange local defense work after the expedition.
Zhou Yunfei made an unusual move and transferred the 52nd Army and the 53rd Army back to Longcheng. On the one hand, he wanted them to fill the defense gap left by the departure of the 1st Cavalry Division and the 50th Army. On the other hand, he also wanted them to leave the familiar north.
fortress.
This is not without their intention to guard against them. Because after the Northern Expedition began, the five northern fortresses became extremely important transit points for Dragon City, and the safety of these fortresses must be completely guaranteed. Therefore, the First Army and the Army and the Fifty
The army and the fifth army were all arranged in the fortress.
As the main force of this Northern Expedition, it is obvious that the 1st Cavalry Division will become the envy of everyone again.
However, due to winter, the heavy snowfall in the bitter cold land of the far north will slow down logistics, so Dragon City must eliminate the danger of the northern orcs within a month.
This task was quite arduous at first. Regardless of the huge population of the orcs, it was very difficult to just find traces of the orcs in the vast far north.
In order to make up for the lack of numbers in the First Cavalry Division, Zhou Yunfei ordered that all cavalry in the entire Longcheng army system be transferred to the First Cavalry Division.
As a result, the number of the First Cavalry Division increased to 40,000!
This is a collection of all the cavalry formations in Dragon City. Perhaps the entire continent cannot gather such a large number of cavalry troops.
Longcheng's general staff has long studied a series of wars against the orcs.
They came to the conclusion that they could only rely on rigorous military formations or highly mobile cavalry units, otherwise it would be very disadvantageous to engage in an equivalent confrontation with the orcs.
From this aspect, it can be seen that the natural qualities of orcs far exceed those of humans. If humans had not possessed advanced science and technology and weapons and equipment, perhaps this continent would not have been occupied by these orcs long ago.
As early as two years ago, Zhou Yunfei began to order his subordinates to collect intelligence on various mainland alien races and began to study how to fight against these alien races.
For example, the natural advantages that the elves have in the forest, the natural cavalry of the southern centaurs, the physical fitness of the northern orcs, etc., have all become the subjects of Dragon City's research.
They need to figure out how to fight these darlings of nature, and their imaginary enemies are no longer limited to humans.
In response to the natural advantages of the northern orcs, Dragon City's military formulated many measures. These included how to deal with defensive battles and how to fight surprise attacks.
A lot of suggestions provided by Zhou Yunfei were used here, especially the Bywest Orc invasion battle last winter. Although Longcheng was not directly involved in it, judging from various subsequent collections, many of the methods formulated earlier
They are all very useful. In the past three hundred years, the Byvost Empire has slowly found a way to deal with the orc war.
The Far North Fortress is a very typical example.
Humans are inherently at a disadvantage compared to orcs, and only by relying on acquired supplements can these disadvantages be eliminated.
Humans lacking war horses were unable to form large-scale cavalry units, so their offensive capabilities were far inferior to those of the orcs. Taking a defensive stance and relying on a solid fortress, Byvost withstood the three hundred years of orc invasion. At the same time, during the war
, more and more people realize that using various detailed advantages to fight against the orcs can reduce a large number of casualties.
Military formations specifically used to fight against the orcs were gradually formed, and most importantly, the weapons and equipment of the army soldiers were gradually improved. These were all changes that followed the orc war.
These details provided the Dragon City military with a lot of material. After careful study, they found that some of them were useful and some were unnecessary. Obviously, the Byvost Empire’s army has not yet been able to match the capabilities of Dragon City.
They have the same systematic system, but this difference is quickly reflected.
The main force of this Northern Expedition is the high-mobility cavalry raid, and then the main army force slowly follows up, hoping to completely eliminate the threat of the Far North Orcs during the winter.
Using troops in winter has always been a taboo for generals, but this time Longcheng went against the norm and decided to solve this problem in winter. There is also a reason why it has to be done, that is, only in winter, the orcs will migrate to the south, and
Judging from last year's form, there may be more orcs this year than imagined.
And Byvost, which had already experienced last year's war, might not be able to withstand this year's attack. Dragon City had no choice but to go head-on in the winter and have a showdown with the orcs.
Now that we have decided to embark on the Northern Expedition, there is a place that Dragon City must own.
That is the Far North Fortress!
As the most critical fortress in and out of the Far North, the Far North Fortress became the most basic base point for this Northern Expedition.
In response, Zhou Yunfei specially wrote a letter in his own hand and gave it to the guards who rushed to the imperial capital of the Bywister Empire overnight and handed it over to the eldest prince who was in charge.
It is not difficult to guess from the letter that what Zhou Yunfei means is that he needs the Far North Fortress and hopes that the eldest prince can hand over control of it to Zhou Yunfei.
Of course, as a two-pronged preparation, the Longcheng military also formulated a plan to seize actual control of the Far North Fortress by force.
But Zhou Yunfei did not want to use force to directly seize this strong fortress that had guarded Bywister for three hundred years. The blood stained on this fortress was left in the war against the orcs. Zhou Yunfei did not want this strong fortress to fight against the aliens.
The fortress has lost its luster because of human competition.
In the imperial capital, the eldest prince received a letter from Longcheng a few days later.
After retreating from everyone, the eldest prince sat alone on the royal chair, holding a sealed letter in his hand and did not move for a long time.
The eldest prince knew about the unusual behavior of Dragon City. And like everyone else, the eldest prince was also very nervous. Although he had more than 10,000 troops in his hands, the combat effectiveness of the Dragon City army was not that of these militiamen with low combat effectiveness.
They can compare.
However, Dragon City's strict surveillance prevented them from further knowing what Dragon City's purpose was. Therefore, they could only prepare secretly, mobilize troops, and reserve food and grass.
As the saying goes, as long as one force does this, the changes that follow will affect the entire empire.
The nerves of war immediately became tense, as if a civil war would start in the next moment.
All this is just because of an unusual move by Longcheng to mobilize troops!
It can be seen that Dragon City has now become the force that determines the direction of Byvost.
The eldest prince received Zhou Yunfei's letter, and he was stunned by the content in the letter. "He actually wants to go on the Northern Expedition!?" An unbelievable tone came out of the eldest prince's mouth.
Indeed, this news is a bit shocking.
He really wondered why Longcheng, or Zhou Yunfei, would choose to leave Byvost and head north at this time. What kind of purpose was hidden behind this unpredictable move.
The eldest prince fell silent, thinking hard about the serious gains and losses involved.
First of all, this is good news. For the eldest prince, he does not want to directly conflict with Longcheng at this moment. The plan is not ready yet, and he really does not have the ability to directly fight against Longcheng's army.
Secondly, this is also bad news. From this, it is not difficult to see Zhou Yunfei’s statement. The eldest prince felt that Zhou Yunfei did not seem to have a strong desire for power. In this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, he chose neutrality again and again.
.If any prince finally ascends to the throne with Zhou Yunfei's help, he will most likely become Bywister's second holy family!
But he took the path that was most unexpected, and was either extremely genius or extremely stupid.
The eldest prince now feels that he cannot see through this young man. The meeting and exchange a year ago allowed the eldest prince to meet a unique Zhou Yunfei. Putting aside the identities of both parties, the eldest prince felt that Zhou Yunfei was a perfect friend.
But that's it.
But not long after this, a series of changes occurred that even the eldest prince was caught off guard, "Zhou Yunfei, Zhou Yunfei, what exactly do you want to do?"
The eldest prince sighed quietly and looked at the letter in his hand with a wry smile. After thinking about it again and again, he made a decision.
