"Ian, you stay here, let the others prepare." After Zhang Liao issued several major orders, he dismissed all the generals, leaving only Ian.
After everyone left, Zhang Liao asked Ian to sit down.[.]
"Ian, I need your help." Zhang Liao said simply and clearly.
Speaking of which, among the Dragon City troops in the Far North Fortress, only Ian and his men had ever fought against the orcs, and even the Dragon City military admired them in the battle last year.
Therefore, if Zhang Liao wants to know himself and his enemy, he needs Ian's understanding of the orcs.
"Commander...Commander, if you have any questions, just ask me." Ian guessed that Dragon City needed its own experience in fighting the orcs.
Sure enough, just as Ian guessed, Zhang Liao needed to hear Ian's experience in fighting the orcs. It also included some detailed reports from the orcs.
Although Longcheng used various means to understand the body structure of the orcs, in real battles, some experienced experience still needs to be listened to.
Ian told him one by one the methods he knew to deal with the orcs. Zhang Liao took out a pen and paper and wrote on them from time to time.
"Using cavalry, especially heavy cavalry, is the best way to attack the orcs." Ian said about the cavalry, because from what Ian learned, the many cavalry in Longcheng will be the best weapon to deal with the orcs.
.
"Under the cavalry, long-range strikes are used. Bows, arrows and spears can effectively kill orcs who have basically no protection." Ian told the most commonly used methods to deal with orcs. Zhang Liao nodded after hearing this and motioned for Ian to continue.
.
Ian thought for a moment and said, "In normal battles, using a well-coordinated spear formation can also offset the individual strength of the orcs."
"However, it's best not to go head-to-head with orcs in the wild. Basically, humans always suffer." Ian finally explained why humans have been on the defensive for more than three hundred years. The physical fitness of orcs far exceeds that of humans. This is an unavoidable fact.
of.
After writing down these key points, Zhang Liao said: "City walls, cavalry, bows and arrows, and phalanx. These four methods are the best ways to deal with the orcs."
Ian nodded, "Yes, these four points are the most common ways to deal with the orcs. Back then, General Reinhard used cavalry to crush the orc army and then drove them back to the far north."
Hearing Ian repeatedly mention the cavalry, Zhang Liao smiled slightly, "Indeed, the cavalry has a natural advantage against the orcs. And we also have this advantage."
When Ian heard Zhang Liao's words, he thought of the cavalry division he had just seen on the sand table. "Commander, at the speed of the 1st Cavalry Division, it only takes less than a day to reach the northern fortress. Why do you want them to attack the other two cavalry divisions?"
Arrive when the troops arrive?”
Ian was just wondering why Dragon City didn't use this highly mobile cavalry team to deploy in the far north fortress, so that after the orcs arrived, they could use the cavalry to attack the orc troops and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.
Is it too extravagant to use cavalry as part of the pocket formation?
Zhang Liao smiled and said, "Ian, if my lord hadn't wanted to annihilate the invading enemies in one fell swoop, it would have been easy to stop them with just the defenders in the Far North Fortress."
The corners of Ian's mouth twitched a bit. Seeing him like this, Zhang Liao knew that Ian didn't think so. However, Zhang Liao didn't explain much, he liked to let the facts speak for themselves.
The battle order was quickly issued, and the four reorganization divisions of the army immediately began to integrate.
Each organized division of 10,000 people divides its own troops, with different arms serving as different parts, and these four organized divisions are combined into an organization of 40,000 people.
The logistics department has also begun to make comprehensive preparations, and various supplies have entered the distribution stage. Each unit in the establishment will receive an additional two bases of long-range weapons, including handheld crossbows and bows.
Various engineering equipment transported to the Far North Fortress have also been assembled and are being carried out by soldiers for final maintenance.
After leaving the headquarters, Ian walked in the Far North Fortress. He saw groups of patrolling soldiers passing by on the street from time to time. Although there were no personnel from the Feilong City system in the Far North Fortress, the soldiers were still meticulous.
Patrolling. On this point, Ian admires him very much. This is what a soldier is!
After taking over the Far North Fortress from Dragon City, Ian's ideas kept changing. The concept of professional soldiers entered his mind for the first time.
A complete establishment system and a complete military rank system allowed Ian to experience Dragon City's unique concepts for the first time.
I have to admit that these things can indeed change the quality of an army. As the saying goes, the true story is revealed in the details.
Dragon City's system is completely different from the unique system of Ross Continent, which makes Ian sigh with emotion from time to time.
Returning to his residence in the Far North Fortress, Ian untied his armor a little tiredly. Just now, he was the only one in the command post wearing military combat armor, and the rest were wearing beautiful and convenient military uniforms.
Unfortunately, Ian is not officially recognized by Dragon City yet, so he and his men only have armor and weapons used in wartime, and do not have the cloth military uniforms that represent Dragon City officers.
North of Hengduan Mountain, the orc army was still advancing towards the Far North Fortress in the south. Before Thor could recover from the wounds he suffered, he followed the army day and night.
There was always a lingering haze in his mind.
This time the army went out on an expedition with the idea of success or failure. So even if Thor had a bad premonition, the army still did not slow down a bit.
At this moment, the army is less than four days away from Hengduan Mountain. In other words, it will take at least about a week for the orc army to pass through Hengduan Mountain.
This time is enough for Zhang Liao to carry out the plan.
Soon, the 1st Cavalry Division mobilized a part of about 5,000 cavalry and arrived at the predetermined position. Then, like the other two armies, the large force would be ready to maneuver toward the far north fortress.
There are new changes in the intelligence in the Far North every day. The special joint brigade tracking the movements of the orc army has a clear view of every move of the orc army.
The war is fought for intelligence, and the war is fought for logistics.
Having mastered these two points, the Dragon City army can be said to be several levels ahead of its opponents.
The dark clouds in the Far North Fortress lasted for several days. During this period, many people on the mainland who were interested in Dragon City, like Zhou Yunfei, were anxiously waiting for updates.
The war in the far north is likely to involve not only the raging civil war in the Byvost Empire, but also the future of several principalities in the central part of the continent.
The Principality of Miso and the Principality of Piccolo, which had done business with Dragon City before, are now eagerly waiting for the arrival of a new batch of supplies. They are counting on these things to help them eliminate their opponents, so naturally they do not want Dragon City to be involved in the orc war.
fail.
The Byron Empire, far in the south, is also paying attention to this emerging force that suddenly appeared in the north. The smoke of the April War has not yet cleared, and Dragon City is preparing to fight with the orcs in the far north. Even the emperor of the Byron Empire
, Art Byron was a little surprised.
"Halford, what do you think of this war?" Art still relied on Halford so much and always looked for opportunities to ask Halford his opinion.
Halford did not answer immediately. He just looked at a rough map of Bywest North carefully and analyzed every possibility.
"Your Majesty, I am not very optimistic about Dragon City this time." Halford said solemnly after thinking about it.
"Oh? Do you think they will lose?" Art frowned. To be honest, he didn't want Dragon City to fail. Because once Dragon City loses, Byvost will be in danger.
If the orcs take advantage of today's civil war, it is conceivable that the Byvost Empire may be taken advantage of by their neighbor Oakley Empire just like Alton before!
The Byron Empire, which is currently in confrontation with the Oakley Empire, naturally does not want its opponent to gain more benefits. Therefore, the Byron Empire still does not want the Bywest Empire to collapse.
"Your Majesty, Dragon City is fighting the orcs alone, especially after last winter's war, which has made the Byvost Empire even worse. The empire certainly has no substantial help to give them, so Dragon City is relatively fighting the orcs alone."
Although it is not known how many troops Dragon City has invested in the Far North Fortress, this is obviously a bad move. They can completely invest these troops into the civil war, and then Dragon City will get much greater benefits than now.
But Dragon City chose to fight against the orcs, which would inevitably weaken Dragon City's power.
"Halford, you think Dragon City will fail, but I am exactly the opposite of you." Art said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, even if Dragon City manages to secure the Far North Fortress in the end, it will definitely suffer heavy losses. At that time, it is very likely that people with ulterior motives will take the opportunity to suppress it." Halford is no longer the political idiot. He can also analyze some outsiders.
Unclear content.
"Halford, if I were to lead troops for you, how far could you go?" Art became interested and asked the youngest and most trusted person in his hands.
Halford thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, a hundred thousand troops are enough!"
"Seventh Legion?" Art looked at Halford funny.
Halford shook his head, "Your Majesty, one hundred thousand troops are enough."
"Haha! Okay! Okay! Okay!" Art laughed heartily. Having such a confident general beside him was a big deal for the Byron Empire.
The entire continent is waiting for the results of the Far North Fortress.
If the orcs win, then Byvost will most likely perish, causing an influx of predators to swallow up the Dragon City as well.
If Dragon City wins, many external forces will have to restrain their wings, and the civil war within the Byvost Empire may reach a new height.
So everyone was waiting, Zhou Yunfei was also sitting in front of the window, holding a cup of hot tea in both hands, looking at the blue sky outside.
