Chapter 1644 Fried’s Arrangement
At the junction of Adria and Toliba, Fried stepped onto the highest point of the land, followed by three people, the little demon mage Do Novan, Huntsman Marshall and Calasias.
The little demon mage Donovan looked at the land of Toliba in the east and said: "Now in the western corner of the entire continent, only the country in front of us has not been conquered by us." Her big, slightly bulging eyes turned. Turning around, he looked at Calasias next to him and said: "Calasias, if you are allowed to conquer this land, How long does it take to conquer the country? "
No matter what the situation, Calasias always wore his very old but seemingly well-protected armor and said, "Give me 20,000 troops and a week."< br>
"Oh, so confident?" Donovan looked at him slightly suspiciously.
Calasias knew that she underestimated surrendered generals like him, so it was no wonder that she thought so. Since the 'pirates' came ashore, they had conquered the east and west, and fought in the north and south. It only took more than half a year to conquer the west. He conquered all the more than ten countries in the south, and even his mother country, Asantanya, the strongest among the more than ten countries in the west, was easily defeated. However, he was not angry at Donovan's questioning, and said slowly: "Although Asantanya and Toliba are not connected, as a professional soldier, I have a clear understanding of the armament status of local countries. Understand that Toliba claims to have a standing force of 70,000, but in fact, once a war breaks out, less than 50% of them can immediately go into battle. Moreover, due to the rampant banditry in the country, these 30,000 Among the multi-talented troops, more than 20,000 elite troops have been deployed in the east and northwest to deal with the plundering of the sand bandits, leaving more than 10,000 people to worry about. "
Donovan You. She hunts among the upper echelons of various countries and knows a little about the situation in Toliba Country. She said: "Don't forget, we have already warned Toliba Country during the more than half a year that we have been making trouble in the West Bank." By that time, the 70,000 standing army troops had already been mobilized, maybe more than 70,000. With the security guards and militiamen in each city, the number would be more than you think. I heard that they were in danger during this period. The area is stepping up the construction of fortifications such as Sky Thunder Tower and Flame Bunker. Do you really have a chance of winning with 20,000 people?”
“There is no point in having more people.” It means being useful. The Toliba country is poor in land, and its domestic finances and military supplies cannot support the mobilization of large-scale legions. In addition, it is backed by a desert, and no country has the idea of taking advantage of this poor land. And its largest bordering country, we Adria, where they are standing, has been on good terms with the Toliba country for hundreds of years. As for the fortifications, they have not faced any real military invasion for many years. , and people are needed to control it. This is not Saint Vicoia. In countries like Saint Vicoia and Demon Moon, their soldiers and security guards basically only recruit people with high-level strength and above, and most of them are knights and mages. The quality of the soldiers is very high, but there are few decent schools in our land, and many soldiers did not even have a complete education system when they were young. With traditional academic qualifications, their strength is mostly based on what they learned from the east and what they learned from the west. The border troops are mostly soldiers without academy experience. The overall quality of the soldiers is not even at the intermediate level. They are expected to control those who are very professional. A sophisticated and complex magic defense tower?" Calasias sneered: "It's useless no matter how many high-level defenses they build. With limited military strength, they cannot sustain a real military confrontation for long."
Donovan smiled: "It seems that you really have a good understanding of Toliba's military strength. I'm worried that if a fight breaks out, it won't even take seven days. As long as I operate from behind, this country will collapse in an instant. Several prominent families in Toliba will... The generals in power have been secretly communicating with me in the past six months. As long as our army advances, they will immediately surrender. "
Calasias is not so interested in this kind of 'gain for nothing' battle. Interested: "Such a war cannot allow low-quality soldiers to gain experience in dealing with real battlefields."
Fried suddenly spoke: "Calasias, give you an army and let you attack the countries south of the desert. Can you do it?"
Donovan and Marshall were refreshed at the same time. .
Calasias had a cold light in his eyes: "I will definitely let you get to know me again."
Fried said: "Our battle is not just on the western seaboard. The territory here is no bigger than a palm on the map. All countries put together The territory is less than the largest province of Saint Bikeya, and our next target is the opposite side of the desert!" Donovan took a deep breath: "Isn't that the opposite side of the desert? Keya? Marshal, have you decided to take action now?”
Calasias's expression became solemn.
Fried said: "Originally, I thought that with the commotion we made here, the Holy Garden or other countries would not sit idly by and ignore us, and might summon an army to launch an expedition against us, so that we could With the advantage of his eyesight and the subsequent meteorite disaster, he launched an ambush on their marching route and completely annihilated a wave of foreign troops to boost our army's momentum."
Dono. Wandao: "Right now, all countries in the world are busy dealing with the upcoming meteorite disaster, and they have no time to pay attention to the situation on the west coast. And I heard that both Shengyuan and WB have a tradition of not intervening in the regime change of other countries. Even if there is no meteorite disaster, other countries will They may not send troops here.”
“If they don’t come, we won’t wait.”
“Is the Generalissimo really going to take action?”
Fried said: "We have to cross the entire Forgotten Sea Desert to catch Saint Vicoa by surprise, but even marching on the southern edge of the Forgotten Sea is very risky for the army. So we have to get a desert "We will seize the two neighboring countries to the south of the desert and provide logistical support to the marching troops."
Marshall asked: "Would it be safer for the Generalissimo not to first consider heading south along the west coast." ?”
"Ho ho ho ho..." Fried smiled gloomily: "Your idea is too conservative. Marching operations are all about surprise. A head-on confrontation between an army and an army is a fool's errand. How many armies do we have? Can't compete with Saint Vicoia. Our corner of the country is bounded by the sea to the west, the Gobi Desert to the north, and the desert to the east. Everyone would think that the way out is to go south. But the terrain in the south is long and narrow, blocked by mountains and rivers, and Capitolis is a country of hills. Said, built in the mountains and rivers of the south We have built a lot of castles and passes, but it is very difficult to go south. Moreover, the Capitolis is not weak. If we really go south and eat this hard nut, it will probably cause us damage. It will also take a long time. Once we go south, our army can only follow this road, attack south first, and then turn east. We don’t know how many years it will take to fight one country at a time. It's not within the scope of Donovan and us 'pirates' to operate. Just like here on the west coast, I have a better grasp of the situation than the countries in the south of the desert. Since it is called 'Creation', the goal is to move eastward~ I am already mobilizing and gathering! "More troops." Novan chuckled and said: "The Generalissimo's movements are really fast. Are you impatient anymore?"
Fried glanced at Marshall: "What's going on over there at the War College?" Like? ”
"The first batch of senior officers have been trained." Marshall said: "They are: Black Knight Volo, Predator Rose, Assassination Blade Ben, Crazy Warrior Kate, and Flame Swordsman Keton. They themselves are very qualified and powerful in the armies of various countries. This training only needs to teach them some of the war equipment produced by us, the use of matching tactics, and the iron laws of our royal power, plus some of the better generals in the past. Can immediately Enter the war.”
Calasias said: “Predator Rose and Black Knight Volo have both served under me directly or indirectly. I know their abilities. I request that they be transferred. Come under my command."
Donovan and Marshall were a little surprised that this request was made so directly. Calasias must be a reduced general, and suspicious people would inevitably be suspicious of summoning his old troops so quickly. Some speculation.
Fried said slowly: "A thing, whether it is an object or a person, must maximize its value as much as possible. You know your subordinates, and these two people will be left to you."< br>
Marshall said worriedly: "I'm worried that this time we Going on an expedition will make the forces in the rear become active again. The Red Armor Army that caused trouble last time has not been completely eradicated, and many enemy spies are still operating, including the previous Holy Sound Sect. I heard that their former Archbishop, Marais. There is always action.”
Calasias said: "When leading an army on an expedition, you need to have a stable rear, otherwise it will affect the success or failure of the expedition."
Donovan said confidently: "Such a thing will not happen. But the Holy Sound Cult does They are a problem. They have a very good reputation on the west coast. If we take rash measures against them, I am afraid that it will cause trouble. It arouses panic among the people."
"Oh, reputation." Fried sneered: "If they have a good reputation, they will be ruined and no one will tolerate them. Donovan, you know what to do about this, right?”
Donovan thought about it and smiled. : "This matter is easy to handle. I find some people to pretend to be Shengyin believers, do bad things, and then let people spread rumors. If I do it well, it won't be long before the Shengyin Church's reputation will be ruined. But in terms of public security I really need to find another person. Shark Sarver asked him to be good at breaking the law and order, and asked him to maintain the law... Oh~! He led his men to drink and make trouble, causing a lot of noise."
Fried nodded: "Then transfer him to the army and let him work under me. Public security issues are really needed. A reliable person will handle it. I will ask the island to send someone who is proficient in public security to handle this matter.”
Donovan smiled and said: "Now we are waiting for natural and man-made disasters to break out at the same time. The stalemate inside and outside Saint Viktor is our best chance. It is a pity that all the wars between Saints and Demons that the leader had tried so hard to provoke did not start. In addition, meteorites fell from the sky. The matter has actually spread, I I thought that only the Holy Emperor could calculate such a magical thing."
"There are countless talents in the Holy Garden and all over the world. Don't underestimate them." Calasias said: "I have been there. Study in St. Picasso, there are like There are really many generals with my strength. I think Marshal Fried knows this best.”
Fried said: “It’s good that they know about the meteorite disaster, since all countries are worried about it. If things are busy, make them busier Click it. It’s time to let the news out. I hope they can get it in time.”
“What news?”
“Of course it’s a way to deal with the meteorite disaster. .”
