After issuing the "head-cutting order" and "lifting the ban", Horns immediately began to arrange the evacuation of the small mercenary group system from Hamburg. In the afternoon of the next day, more than half of the battalions of the small mercenary group system had left Hamburg.
On the morning of three days, except for Amy, Daqingshan and the direct guards, everyone else in the small mercenary group system disappeared into the Messis mountains.
Amy and Daqingshan used the past two days to repeatedly discuss with the officers and cadres on the inside lines about the future direction of the war in the northern theater and whether it was possible to make some gesture to attract the Dahino Legion to go out and gain some benefits from the rebel army.
Benefits. Of course, Amy and Daqingshan were also waiting for An Qiu Sheng's reply - at the speed of the wind dragon, it usually only takes a day or two to cross a space of 1,000 miles.
The fourth-level dragon knight of the wind system did not wait, but waited until the fifth-level dragon of the water system - the elder Long and the cadre of the small mercenary group Guan Shanpei - two dragon knights drove the dragon back to Hamburg City.
Originally, judging from the speed, Long could have returned to Hamburg City ten days ago. The reason for the postponement of his return was simple - the news that Fanos West coach Dahino defeated Hamburg City, under the manipulation of some thoughtful people,
Just two days later, the news spread through the entire northern region of the empire through the Thieves Guild. Of course, the two dragon knights who hurried back could not have known about such a big thing - they were very worried about the war in Hamburg and rested in various towns every night.
When supplementing, I will go to the treehouse bar to inquire about relevant information.
When they first heard that Dahino's floating city plan had failed, the two dragon knights couldn't believe it. In the following days, more and more detailed war details were auctioned by the Thieves Guild, and the news was finally confirmed. This kind of news
Under the circumstances, Long was finally relieved. He happened to pass near Scambrai, and Long and Guan Shanpei even sneaked in.
They entered the original imperial capital to pay homage to the tomb of General Chi Hanfeng, hoping to get news about Chi Aotian's army, but... still nothing was gained. However, the two of them accidentally heard the latest incomplete news about the arrival of the God of Death in the Flower Language Plain.
.They have not linked Ling Yun and the two of them suddenly to this matter.
Amy quietly listened to Long's introduction to Chi Aotian's expeditionary force in the Flower Language Plain, especially the various plots seen in Niuyao Town.
After thinking for four or five minutes, Amy's face became calmer and even smiled: "I think the Chi Aotian expeditionary force is still there, and..." The young man frowned slightly, as if he was looking for a more suitable word.
: "It's not even to the point of breaking your muscles and bones."
No one in the room understood what Amy meant.
"Chi Aotian is a dragon knight. He will not have any problems in that fire at all, let alone the beef waist battle. With his temper, if he really suffered a big loss, such as the entire army being annihilated or dead or injured
Tragic, then... I think, even if he faces three or four dragon knights, he will definitely rise to the challenge, right?"
Most people were moved in their hearts, yes... Chi Aotian has never done such a thing.
"Deputy Commander Chi didn't do this. The reason is very simple. It means that he doesn't want to expose his remaining troops to the enemy... This means that the remaining troops must be considerable in quality or quantity. Let's think about it carefully.
Think about it, how will Chi Aotian's army arrange the order when crossing the river? The answer should not be difficult to guess." At this point, most people have already understood.
"Uncle Long, since you are back now, there is no need to rush to Huayu Plain. I think Ling Yun and the others may find a way to find Chi Aotian. You can go there then. You and Guan Shanpei will join the inside line
Legion, I'm always worried that Dahino will concentrate his troops on something else."
Amy's words were very beautiful and tactful, but this did not affect Daqingshan's understanding of these words. The boy in black immediately took over the topic: "Well. That's good. There are four dragon knights sitting in the center. We
Don’t worry. Moreover, if there is a war outside, the dragon’s speed will facilitate reinforcements as soon as possible.”
The successive deaths of Barbas, Lin He and others made the chief officers of the small mercenary group worry about gains and losses. Several people have reached a certain consensus about these fathers. Long did not hear the unspoken meaning. It was true.
He thought that he would be called to join the battle once the war got serious, so he readily agreed.
Sigh... Takashi didn't even think about it. Even if the war was tight, it was thousands of miles away. Except for the dragon knight who could quickly notify him, it would take at least 5 days for the other knights and the fantasy beast knights to come and go. If the war was tight, there would still be excess.
Are the dragon knights sent? Poor Long
, was deceived by the juniors like this. It would be fine if it was just Amy who did this. After all, Amy has always been known for her cunning. The key is that the Holy Dragon Knight Da Qingshan has also begun to learn to trick people quietly... It's really
The world is declining, and people's hearts are not as old as they used to be.
Just as they were talking, An Qiu Sheng came back with the wind dragon. The young man was afraid that no one would be found after the small mercenary group evacuated, so he returned overnight after seeing the magician.
"What did Teacher Lei Ge say?" Amy poured a glass of water and handed it to the panting young dragon knight, who drank it all in one gulp.
"He said he understood. If Miss Lin Yushang comes to his place, he will definitely delay the time and arrange for someone to deliver the letter to you. Moreover, I have not found any trace of Miss Lin Yushang along the way." An Qiu Sheng was quite serious.
Careful person: "By the way, last night, when I was returning, I saw the sky in the south suddenly seemed to be on fire... well... it was blue flames. I didn't go there because I was in a hurry."
Oh? Amy frowned slightly, to the south? Isn’t that the territory of the Burmese Empire? What are these bastards doing? However, war is like this. Most of the time, you fight yours and I fight mine.
The first to be mobilized by the enemy will inevitably suffer. General Chi Hanfeng taught Amy this principle when he was still in the Frozen Continent. The young man did not show much curiosity: "Okay, you go back and have a rest first.
, tomorrow morning, we will set out together to chase Deputy Captain Horns and the others."
Watching the wind dragon knight leave the meeting hall, Amy finally gave some instructions to several imperial captains before leaving the meeting hall.
Early in the morning on the fourth day after the beheading order was issued, Amy, Daqingshan and a group of others left Hamburg City. At this time, there were almost no residents in Hamburg anymore. Only small groups of soldiers were destroying door to door.
With all the items that can be used, on the top of the Hamburg city wall and on the cliff behind the city, more soldiers are responsible for cutting catapults made of fine iron... What the Archbishop of the Fanos Legion once had seems to be quite correct now.
The idea is being implemented by the Hamburg garrison in a more brutal and practical way.
On the afternoon of the fifth day, when the last group of soldiers left Hamburg, the glory of this city that is said to never fall... and the city itself had become part of history.
On the night of the same day, at the edge of the Messis Snow Peak, Amy and her party caught up with the large army that had set off early. From that day on, the historical mission of the small mercenary group changed fundamentally. This group was founded only six years ago.
After the mercenary group lost the city of Hamburg, their new goals had nothing to do with the traditional mercenary group's mission...
From this day on, sharp spears replace the shield of peace! From this day on, the mercenaries who create peace will pacify the world with their own consciousness and force - this is also the ultimate origin of the term "Mercenary World".
That night, Amy convened more than 20 senior officers and cadres to hold an internal combat meeting. Unexpectedly, regarding the combat direction of the small mercenary group in the autumn and winter of the sixth year of the magic calendar, several people actually appeared at this meeting.
Completely different voices, and what’s more important to note is that behind each voice are groups with completely different interests.
Horns, the elders of the Mountain Dwarf Kingdom and quite a few cadres of the small mercenary group hope to give full play to the advantages of the small mercenary group in snow warfare and use the Messis Snow Mountain as a base to continuously attack the cities around Scambrai.
, weakening the strength of the Burmese puppet empire, and looking for better fighters during this period.
Most imperial officers hope to enter the eastern foothills of the Messis Mountains. Previously, due to the rebellion in the floating ice port theater, many continental highways along the floating ice port were occupied by the enemy. The imperial officers hope to be able to open up all the way eastward this winter.
Connection with the Jielin War Zone - Marshal Chi Datong, the supreme commander of the Imperial Military Department, is there
If the two war zones can coordinate the operations, they may be able to reverse the entire war situation in one fell swoop. Of course, most officers still have some selfish motives. As regular troops, they still hope to be under the direct command of the military headquarters, rather than being controlled by a group of small groups like now.
Children are coming and going - it's hard to say this.
Amy has a clear understanding of the similar thoughts of the imperial officers: in the army, seniority is the most important thing. Among the millions of troops in the empire, there are also large and small factions. This is why the vice minister of the empire, Delaware
When they surrendered to the enemy, two war zones completely defected, while the other five war zones didn't even consider it. This is mountain-top doctrine at work.
When General Chi Hanfeng and General Lin He were built, under their majesty, mid-level and senior officers would obey orders from the small mercenary group system. Now, not far away is Chi Datong's handsome staff, and it is impossible for the officers to
Give up the opportunity to contact the military directly.
To be fair, from a strategic point of view, these two opinions have the same fundamental purpose - hoping to mobilize the enemy in winter and waiting for an opportunity to fight one or two big battles. It is even hoped that one or two battles will eliminate the main mobile troops of Fanos.
At least the Fanos Army will lose the confidence to fight again in the short term. These two ideas are basically consistent with the policy formulated by Amy in Hamburg City. However, in recent days, as Amy has been thinking about the war in the north,
, both of these ideas have unsatisfactory aspects.
The northern war zone is not a flat plain of flowers. Chi Aotian can march all the way with 5,000 cavalry. Let him try it in the northern war zone! Leaving the mainland highway and marching 50 miles a day is ideal. As long as the enemy uses the crisscrossing continent
With the road outflanking in place, the 5,000 lone troops were already covered.
Judging from Amy's immature war perspective, this idea is not very optimistic - more than 10,000 mercenaries are not even combat power in the northern theater! If a strategic victory is achieved, the only way is to use
The right time and place, the enemy was pulled out and beaten in the ice and snow, but would Dahino make this mistake?
Attack them and save them! Where in the northern theater is the place that Dahino must save? With just 10,000 mercenaries, how big of a stir can they make under the current situation in the northern theater? Dahino will definitely choose to attack small cities.
What about giving up and attacking big cities? As long as there are 3,000 combat troops in the city, that’s not the case
The small mercenary group can easily eat it. Officer Fanos can advance steadily step by step until the final battle. Or, simply let the small mercenary group eat it slowly and engage in siege warfare in winter, when the strong north wind blows.
Even if the Hami people were pulled up, their numbers would be severely reduced due to frostbite. Didn't Marshal Dahino not think of this?
Therefore, these two opinions can at most harass the enemy or attack a few small towns, but it is difficult to achieve strategic goals.
Amy hesitated for a moment and finally expressed her thoughts. Unexpectedly, the idea of the leader of the small mercenary group and the temporary general of the northern theater of the empire summoned almost all the mercenary cadres and officers who attended the meeting to unanimously oppose it.
What? Attack the Sanggan River War Zone!?
The mid-level and senior officers almost said that they were in trouble. At this time, the total mobile combat power in the northern theater was only 20,000, and the Sanggan River Theater had recruited troops many times after the outbreak of the war, and relied on the river as a natural barrier.
, can advance, attack, retreat or defend, and there are at least 10 brigades of troops that can attack at any time. Even if the overall combat strength of the army in the Sanggan River War Zone is weak, it is definitely not difficult to hold back a small mercenary group with 10 brigades.
The Fanos army is unwilling to go north to fight in the snowfields. Compared with going south to enter the relatively warm Sanggan River area, it is probably not a problem. Once these two armies are combined, they will have a combat strength of at least 50,000, let alone a small mercenary group.
Now, if we pull out all the four existing A-level mercenary groups, there will probably be no chance - this is the formal
The gap between the army and the mercenaries. Comparing the combat power of a single mercenary and a soldier, the mercenaries often have an absolute advantage. However, once 1,000 mercenaries and 1,000 regular troops are put into battle together, the mercenaries will lose.
It is relatively large. When the scale reaches 10,000 people, the regular army will win with an absolute advantage.
Amy looked at the nearly 20 officers and cadres in front of her, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth inadvertently. Amy thought of one person - Yi Hailan, who had a relationship with most of the chief officers of the small mercenary group.
The rather bold idea has a bit of the taste of stealing noodles and eating bowl noodles. However, Amy is still not sure whether this bowl noodles are really delicious?
After coughing slightly, Amy stood up and pointed at the military map to start his first strategic layout: "Going south to the Sanggan River, everyone is worried that we will be attacked from two sides, right? In fact, it is not just the ones who are being attacked from both sides.
We, while we were still in danger of being flanked, the Sanggan River War Zone was already flanked!"
Everyone's eyes followed Amy's finger and landed on a large light gray area below the Sanggan River. Amy poked at this place hard: "From the information we know, Alcatraz and Fanos are two
The armies are at odds (of course Amy did not say that some of the information came from the God Realm). The commander of the Alcatraz army, Yi Hailan, is a young wise man who is best at taking advantage of the war situation.
, oppressing the enemy's living space, and seeking the greatest benefits for themselves without any bloodshed. Therefore, whether it was the previous battle of Duanbing Port or the Dahino Army being forced to go north, I suspect that there are traces of Yi Hailan in it - otherwise,
How could the Alcatraz Army obtain the interests between Sanggan River and Lion River without going through a major battle? I think it’s better to respond to others with their own methods.”
"It's just..." Amy hesitated for a moment, then changed the topic: "I'm still a little worried, well... I'm not worried that the Burmese Empire won't cooperate. I'm worried that if Yi Hailan finds out, will we be beaten again? He controlled it remotely, and it ended up being a fight to the death between us and Fanos, but he profited from it."
For most imperial officers, the character of Yi Hailan has always been shrouded in mystery. It seems that Amy was not worried at all about a famous commander like Dahino in her plan, but she was so worried about Yi Hailan, who had no real reputation in the war. The officers had more or less a shadow in their minds - the mercenary boy in front of them could not be Zhao Kuo Er, who was famous for his armchair tactics during the Warring States Period 30,000 years ago. If that were the case, the main force in the northern theater of the empire would be Maybe it will be the same as Zhao's 400,000-strong army being encircled and killed...
