PS: I have something to do today, so I'm updating in advance.
Located in the southeast of Midden, near Hawk and the Tarabek River, this large town was located in the middle of a large area of hills. It had been attacked many times in history, and the town had been rebuilt several times. Every time it was rebuilt, it was done on the previous ruins. Therefore, the structure of the streets and the wall of the town looked very funny. It was a kind of weird mixture of old design and new design caused by repeated rebuilding. Because of this, it was mocked by many people. However, the people of Midden thought that this was a glorious tradition. Not only did they not plan to tear down and rebuild, they even proudly said that they would keep it.
In the hall of Count Midden's castle, the plan for the final battle was already in progress.
Laing was the commander of the human army this time. Although the people of Midden had some doubts, they did not object. The pope of the White Wolf Church, Emir, even said, "Yuric's son doesn't like to listen to the command of outsiders, but you don't count. Laing, you once came to Yuric's holy fire as a White Wolf Knight. This time, the people of Midden have decided to give you the position of commander of the army. Cherish it!"
"I don't need your gift. Laing is the champion of the lady's choice and the king of Brittany!" Morgiana gave tit for tat. The Lake Goddess witch walked to Clayon's side and leaned her shoulder against his shoulder. She said aggressively, "Please don't use the previous incident as an example. Clayon has nothing to do with your White Wolf Church and Midden Hill now. Or rather, the only person who is related to him is that old mister Norman."
"Enough, Your Highness Morgiana. We are having a military meeting. If you want to quarrel, you can go out with His Highness Emir and find a place to fight. You can fight in the middle lane alone, but not now." Boris glared with his only eye. Kurfürst White Wolf pointed at Laing and said, "The people of Midden have appointed Laing as the commander. Let's listen to his plan first."
Morgiana opened her mouth, and blue veins appeared on the Lake Goddess Witch's forehead. She picked up the Holy Grail and was about to fight back, but Laing gently reached out and held her waist, signaling her not to be impulsive.
When Laing hugged her waist, the Lake Goddess Witch felt her whole body go numb. She didn't have any strength left, and her anger disappeared without a trace. When she saw this, she gave up on arguing. She just signaled for them to talk.
Right behind Laing, Aurora, her daughter, and Veronica were all present. Aurora was the happiest to see Morgiana being humiliated. The Sanctum witch thought to herself that she had quite a bit of influence in the north of the Empire, and she had also been a guest in White Wolf City several times. She immediately tried to pick up the conversation. "I think..."
"Also! We are having a military meeting! Would the Adepts in charge of magic consultation please step back! " Boris immediately interrupted Aurora. He then shouted, "Madam Aurora, please don't speak before Laing invites you!"
Aurora's face suddenly turned pale, and the Sanctum witch could only helplessly take a step back. Veronica and Morgiana looked at each other and snickered.
"Okay, everyone, quiet down." Laing clapped his hands and signaled everyone to be quiet. He looked at everyone present.
On the Brittany's side, there was Knight King Laing, Lake Goddess Witch Morgiana, Regent Duke Lauen, Duke Berchemund, Duke Hagen, Old Guard Commander Bertrand, Davu, Veronica, Aurora, and Teresa.
On the Empire's side, there was Elector Boris, Great Ulric Emil, Commander Axel, Captain of the Teutonic Guard, Captain von Tuggenheim, and Marshal Boris of Mildenheim's legal illegitimate son, Heinrich.
A gathering of stars.
"We will set up a formation at Middenstange to face the Orc Green Skin Army." Laing spread out the map. "First, we can confirm a few things. First, the Green Skin Army is to our southwest, and the Orc Army is to our southeast. The quality of their army is inferior to ours, but they have an absolute advantage in terms of numbers."
"Ladies and gentlemen, please take a look. Middenstange is the main road. The north leads to Mildenheim, the south leads to Karon Castle, and the east leads to Herzig. If you were an Orc, what would you do?" Laing looked at everyone and asked, "Boris, and Prince Varner, you have been fighting with the Orcs all year round. Based on their instincts, how do you think the Orcs would like to fight with us?"
"They would ambush us and surround us," Boris said in a rough voice. Boris said gruffly. The Kurfürst looked at the terrain carefully and said, "The orcs like to torture us the most. They will make us fall into their carefully prepared trap and then ambush us. But this situation is not suitable because we have occupied the high ground. Midenstanger is at the center of the nearby hills. We have occupied the advantageous terrain, so they are more likely to surround us."
"Yes, that's right. Advantageous terrain. We will deploy our cannons on the high ground." Laing pointed at Middenstange, and Knight King said solemnly, "Like I said, the enemy has an absolute advantage in terms of numbers. We are fighting with a large army, and our 80,000 soldiers have to eat and drink every day. That's why we took a big detour to Middenstange. Now, the southern road has been cut off. Think about it. If it were you, how would you deploy your main army?"
"I understand. The Orcs will try to cut off our transportation route to Mildenheim and Herzig." White Wolf Knight Commander Axel understood immediately. "Let them come! The son of Yorick will make them pay with their blood! "
"Correct, but we won't fight like that." Laing smiled and nodded. Knight King pointed at the Mildenheim road in the north and the Hocker Road in the east and said, "This time, we'll give up these two roads."
"Give up?!" Duke Berchemund was speechless. The Red Dragon Duke said in disbelief, "Your Majesty, did I hear wrongly? If you let them out, you'll be letting the entire army fall into a trap! That can't be done. Your Majesty, let me do it. Bastogne and I will deal with the Orcs. We'll destroy them as they advance! They won't even have a chance to get close to our transportation route! "
"No, my dear Berchemund, if you do that, you'll be playing into the Orcs' hands." Laing said solemnly, "We have a small number of people. If we send out troops to protect the transportation route, the Orcs will use their advantage in numbers. If we do that, we might lose."
"On the contrary, we should pretend to give up on the transportation route and let the Orcs control it. We'll retreat." Ryan pointed at the northern and eastern roads and said, "This way, the Orcs will divert their troops to control the transportation route, and they will divert their troops. We only need to guard Untegard Fort at the back. Then we can use a small number of troops to restrain the Orc army."
"Similarly, the Orcs will think that their plan has succeeded and attack immediately." Laing said with certainty, "Under the circumstances of being surrounded, the Orcs have no reason not to attack. That way, the enemy's forces will be scattered, and we will clench our fists and be ready to attack."
"Very good!" Boris thought for a while and felt that it was reasonable. Kurfürst White Wolf nodded and asked, "What about the Green Dwarfs? How do we deal with the Green Dwarfs? They have the advantage in numbers, and the Large Spiders of the Black Pit have destroyed and looted the watchtowers and villages around the Drakwald Forest more than once. "
"Very simple." Laing pointed at the southwest direction of Midentstanger and said, "We'll attack. Midentstanger will lead the troops. You'll be in charge of attacking the Green Dwarfs. A small group of White Wolf Knights, Uric's Sword, and Teuton Guards will be the vanguard."
"???" Almost everyone was confused by the Knight King's words.
How could the elites be the vanguard in a battle? Was Laing out of his mind? True elite troops were not used like this. Instead, they were used at critical moments to decide the outcome of the battle!
"Listen to me, everyone. It's time to test Midentstanger." Laing gestured for everyone to listen to him. Knight King drew a circle on the map and said, "First, advance and face the Green Dwarfs. When you are 300 to 500 meters away from the Green Dwarfs, retreat."
"Retreat? Retreat again?" Boris was angry that Laing ordered Midentstanger to retreat, but he immediately realized that Laing must have his own ideas. "You …"
"That's right. Retreat. The most elite Teuton Guards, White Wolf Knights, and Uric's Sword of Mideng Hill are indeed trembling in front of our big WAAAGH. I was thinking about this wave. This wave is on the fifth level!" Clayon imitated Green Skin's tone and said, "Finally, we can go all out! Little ones, WAAAGH! This time, we must fight to our heart's content! "
Everyone couldn't help but smile, especially the people of Midentstanger. They had to admit that although Laing's impersonation was a little off, it was very funny.
"Yes, yes," Lauren said. "Seeing the most elite Teuton Guards, White Wolf Knights, and Uric's Sword in front of them, there's no reason for the Green Skin not to take the initiative to attack because they're afraid of the Green Skin's power and WAAAGH!" Laughan said repeatedly, and the Regent of the Kingdom praised the Knight King's plan endlessly.
"Yes, this way, the enemy will fall into a trap, a real trap." Laing continued, "Veronica will be there to support you. When the Green Dwarfs completely enter the ambush, Veronica will cast her most powerful spell, the great spell Armageddon. Hundreds of meteors will fall from the sky and swallow all the Green Dwarfs."
Veronica took a step forward and bowed to everyone. Then, she reached out and held Laing's arm.
Speaker Garland's action made everyone feel good about her. Aurora, who was eager to show off, was instantly outshone by her. The Sanctuary Witch's face was sullen. Theresa saw this and pulled her mother to comfort her not to worry.
"What a beautiful sight. I can't wait to see it." Boris nodded. He could not help but feel happy when he thought of the Green Dwarfs trembling under hundreds of meteors.
"Yes, Boris, but retreating is a complicated and profound military skill," Laing said seriously. "Can you guarantee it? If not, let my Old Guard do it. "
“Fnndp！” Big Uric could not help but curse. Emir Vargel shouted at Laing without holding back, "Do you think the son of Uric is brave but not smart? We will complete the mission of luring the enemy. I will personally lead the team. If any wolf pup disobeys, I will smash his head with a hammer! "
"My godson, Tuggenheim, will also go. He is a White Wolf Knight and the captain of the Teuton Guards. He can command the soldiers to retreat calmly," Boris said. "What's next?"
"The army of Midden will form a diagonal line in the west of Midden Stange. They will retreat as they fight. The artillery on the high ground will provide a large amount of firepower as support." Laing continued, "The elite infantry will be on the west side. Lady Aurora and Lady Teresa will use their Ice Magic to create a Blizzard and Extreme Cold Realm to assist in the defense. What you have to do is to restrain the main Green Dwarfs, hold the line, and retreat slowly. If not, retreat into the town to defend."
"Very good. What will you do?" White Wolf Knight Commander Axel asked.
"Lauren's second army will restrain the Orc army at Untergarde Castle. We will attack from the front." Laing pointed to the southeast and said, "The Orcs will think that the Brittany Knights will find an opportunity to attack from the side or from the back. Knights like to charge from the side or from the back, so they will set up a large amount of defense on both sides. But they are cunning and foolish. We will charge from the front. Boris and Axel, you will lead the White Wolf Knights to charge with me, Morgiana, and the Brittany Knights."
"Oh, I like that!" Axel nodded with satisfaction. "Very good."
"Berchemund and Hagan will lead the third army to hide under the cover of the thick fog of the Lake Goddess Witches. When we break through the Orc army, the army will attack from the sides. The Orcs will realize that they are being attacked from both sides. I will deal with the Supreme Orc King, Getwo!" Laing smiled coldly and said, "This is the battle plan. We will tear the Orcs and Green Dwarfs to shreds in Midden Stange."
"So easy?" Duke Hagan was in disbelief.
"The plan is always easy. The key is to gather the superior military strength and sufficient execution." Laing said solemnly, "I have to be honest, everyone. This plan is risky. Whether it can be realized depends on Prince Emil's retreat and whether we can penetrate the Orc army. As for Getwo, I will make arrangements for him!"
"The battle plan has been decided. Everyone, execute it!" Laing said to everyone, "Tomorrow morning, we will act according to the plan!"
"Yes!" Everyone received the plan and started making preparations.
Aurora wanted to say something to Laing, but the Knight King gestured to her and said, "Prepare for the battle, Madam Aurora. Your and Teresa's performance will determine whether we can hold the front line."
"Understood." Aurora and Teresa immediately went to prepare.
Veronica didn't need to be reminded. With the sound of her high heels, Speaker Garland's slim figure disappeared at the door.
"Laing, do you really think Boris and his wolves can do it?" Only Morgiana, Bertrand, and Davu were left at the scene. The Lake Goddess walked over.
"There's still time. Morgiana, Bertrand, and Davu, bring our men and take a look outside the Dungeon." Laing didn't answer Morgiana's question. Instead, he invited her to take a look at the front line. Morgiana had no reason to object.
At this moment, a limping figure appeared at the entrance of the Main Hall of the Count's Castle. He supported himself with a walking stick and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
"Talleyrand?" Laing opened his eyes wide and said, "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be in Nur? "
"Your Majesty, I, I have new military intelligence!" The High Elf was wearing a luxurious Nur dark red aristocratic robe and a black gold coat. He took out a letter and said, "Please take a look!"
Ryan took the letter, opened it, and began to read.
"What!"
