Chapter 339: The top needs to be dealt with by the top
In a war, it is extremely important to seize the initiative, especially for the weak side. Only by leading the opponent's nose can victory be possible.
The Archduke of Franken and the Archduke of Regens reached a consensus after eating the roast pig. They took the initiative in this battle and caught the other side off guard to gain the initiative. Maybe they could bring Duke Wesson back to the negotiating table. .
"We will attack the troops of the Principality of Mainz first." Archduke Franken said, "They did not expect that we would take the initiative to attack, and they would definitely mess up the position."
Legens The Grand Duke frowned and shook his head and said: "I think we should attack the Principality of Bain first. Some of their main forces have recently arrived at the border of the Osmaga Empire. They are the weakest and easiest to deal with."
The army of the Principality of Mainz in the west is threatening the Principality of Franconia, and the army of the Principality of Byrne in the southeast is eyeing the Regens Alliance. Both big guys want to solve their own troubles first.
For them, this is a matter of principle that is vital to life and death. Even if they are defeated in the battle with Wesson's army and can return to their hometown, neither side is willing to give in.
While the two archdukes were arguing, Frederick secretly came to the military camp on the front line, along with Richard Nall and Becher, two men with top-notch military power.
The three sword masters of the Franconian Principality, Denis, Branimir, Dixon, and the Dharma God Bol invited from the Piast Kingdom by the Regens Alliance have arrived at the front line. There was only one sword master, Richard Nall, and after Frederick reached a consensus with the nobles of the Rhine League, Becher, the leader of the Royal Mage Group, came to Wesson in his own name.
The Archduke of Mainz and the Archduke of Byrne originally planned to send people to help, but Frederick did not agree and just asked them to sit in his own army.
Now, in the middle of the battlefield, the number of top combatants on both sides was 4:2, and Weisen State was at a disadvantage.
When Frederick arrived at the military camp, he got unexpected good news: after careful consideration, Fatih decided to let Hakan assist Frederick.
Although Hakan's strength declined after his broken arm was recovered, he can still help calm the situation and deal with the situation. What is more important is Fatih's attitude behind this.
Becher did not know Hakan. He had only heard of his name and had no special reaction.
Richard Nall knew him and saw that there was something wrong with his hand, but he just smiled and said nothing.
All the guests came, and they came to help in the fight. Regardless of the past hostility between him and himself, Frederick set up a simple dinner reception.
The dishes for the dinner in the military camp were very simple, with fragrant roasted pig's trotters placed on top of chopped sauerkraut.
However, the pig's trotters were roasted by Frederick himself. From this point of view alone, it was not a injustice to Hakan and Fatih, who represented Hakan.
Frederick had long known that Fatih and Hakan had placed a lot of orders, so he didn't care since they were here to send money.
At the brief dinner, he asked the guests how they were doing in Wesson and whether they had encountered any difficulties. They were all polite words.
After dinner, on the way to the headquarters, Frederick took a look at Hakan's arm that he had cut off, and suddenly reached out and patted the broken arm where it was reattached.
Hakan was taken aback for a moment. At first he thought he was playing a prank or hinting at something, but after two breaths he immediately became surprised.
Although the broken arm was connected, there was always something strange. The entire arm could not be restored to its original state despite all efforts. As a result, Hakan's mentality was damaged and his strength plummeted.
Now this place was just lightly patted by Frederick, and the strange feeling disappeared instantly. Not only the arms, but the whole person relaxed as if the huge boulder pressing on the body was lifted.
"Your Majesty," Hakan said with surprise and curiosity, "what did you just do?"
Frederick smiled and said: "Nothing, I just removed some of the magic elements remaining in your arm."
Hakan asked in surprise: "There are really residual magic elements in my arm? During the previous treatment, many people thought that residual elements interfered with my arm, but no one, including me, could find the presence of elements."
He was treated with his own strength. With the strength of the elites, it stands to reason that no matter what kind of magic element it is, they can at least detect it, but there are symptoms in the arm but no root cause of the disease has been found. It is like hearing a noise on the ceiling but not finding anyone on the roof. It is revealed everywhere. Weird.
Hakan continued to ask: "What element is this, so weird?"
Frederick smiled and said: "If I had not mastered this power, the grass on the grave would now be Even below the knee. ”
When he fought Hakan, he used the element of annihilation. This magical element did not exist in this world. It was transformed by Psyche. Currently, only the two visitors from another world can use it. Hakan and the others naturally cannot discover it.
Because of this, Frederick used it as his trump card and would not reveal it easily, but would just fool it at will.
Hakan came to help now. He could not go into battle injured, so Frederick helped him remove the root cause of the disease.
Hakan saw that Frederick didn’t want to say more, so he didn’t ask any more questions.
The headquarters arrived soon. It was brightly lit and there was a huge sand table in the middle. Military officer Franz Jr., staff officer Helmut and a group of staff had been waiting for a long time.
Hakan's head didn't move after he came in, but his eyes were darting around, obviously with the mission of seeking information.
Frederick didn’t care, he had already thought of it. Some things require too many prerequisites. Not many forces can learn military food alone, let alone the military's ideological education. "Going forward is not combat effectiveness, being able to go forward is combat effectiveness." Even allies They can't understand that applying it mechanically will lead to a dead end.
Little Franz, Helmut and others immediately stood at attention and saluted when they saw Frederick coming in.
What bothered Hakan was that all the officers here called Frederick "principal", and only the soldiers called him "commander".
Frederick came to the edge of the sand table and asked Helmut to introduce the current situation.
The sand table is filled with all kinds of flags, and it is easy to see the layout of both sides.
The main force of the Wessen Army is deployed two kilometers south of the Wessen state border. To the south is the city of Nuremberg, which serves as a strategic support point. There is a newly built stone bridge on the river between the two places, and prepared ships And materials can be used to build several pontoons at any time.
The coalition forces of the Principality of Franconia and the League of Regans are deployed 20 kilometers away to the north, with about 30,000 combat troops and about 50,000 logistics troops.
A black or red and black flag is planted at intervals around the enemy military camp and on both sides of the road leading to the military camp. These are scouts who have already lurked.
Hakan also discovered that black flags had been planted in the enemy's important cities, and it was obvious that members of the Wesson Army had already been lurking inside.
After listening to the report, Frederick looked at the sand table and asked: "How to deal with the enemy magic gods and sword saints?"
These sword saints and magic gods are humanoid tactical nuclear bombs to the army. Personal power is enough to change the situation of the battle, so it must be resolved first.
The best way to deal with nuclear bombs is naturally to use nuclear bombs.
He felt a little helpless. Psyche said that he would not care until the enemy came in, otherwise it would be easy.
Little Franz was the commander of this battle. He pointed a wooden pole at the Marienberg Fortress, the capital of the Principality of Franconia, and said: "Our plan is to ask Lord Richard Nall to appear near the Marienberg Fortress. We can mobilize some of the enemy's top combat forces and eliminate them with a partial numerical advantage."
Richard Nall nodded and said: "Now that Hakan has joined us, we have a lot more people. Our actual combat strength is three. Half of them, apparently four."
His algorithm included Frederick, the guy who had defeated the Dharma God, and continued: "The opponent has four. If he sends two. We can win with a sneak attack, but if we fight with three of them, we might have to pay a price. With all four of us, we can escape unscathed."
Becher nodded and turned to ask Frederick: "Is it possible for those from the Principality of Mainz and the Principality of Bayn to also participate and just hold the battle from the side? The absolute advantage in numbers may make the other party surrender."
He is here to help, It's no problem to fight with the wind, but I don't want to deal with the headwind. It's better if I can recruit more helpers and make it easier.
Hakan consciously remained silent, but nodded in agreement.
Frederick saw that there was nothing he could do about the two of them. The original plan was to use the top combat capabilities of the Principality of Mainz and the Principality of Bain as pioneers. The use of them on the frontal battlefield was related to the division of spoils afterwards.
"Okay, I'll make arrangements later." After all, he couldn't command these two people forcefully, and Richard Nall couldn't do it without their help.
Frederick said to little Franz: "We will take action tomorrow. If all four of the opponent's men leave, the army will take the opportunity to launch an attack."
Little Franz Pointing to the sand table, he said: "If the principal succeeds and eliminates the threat, the army can divide into two groups and set up a defensive position about three kilometers in front and behind the enemy's camp to block the enemy."
The two places he pointed to are commanding heights, guarded by more than a thousand people, who can control the main road.
Hakan felt that surrounding nearly 80,000 enemies with about 20,000 troops was something only the Wesson Army dared to imagine.
Frederick thought for a while, agreed with his plan, and said: "If we succeed, we don't need to attack yet. Let the airship troops dispatch and drop leaflets persuading surrender to various towns."
From now on, these places will be your own territory. If possible, do as little damage as possible. It will still cost you your own money to repair them.
The pre-war meeting ended quickly. When leaving the headquarters, Hakan asked Frederick curiously: "Your Majesty, will you not follow the command of the army?"
Frederick shook his head and replied: "I believe they can do a good job, so I give them the power to perform on their own."
Hakan asked in surprise: "Aren't you afraid that their credit will be too high?"
< br>In the Ghazi Empire, it is not uncommon for people to have great achievements and shake up the master. These people eventually become local warlords who dominate one side. How much face they give to the emperor depends on their mood.
Frederick just smiled and said nothing. The political system was different and many things were difficult to explain.
