Chapter 430: A Solitary Army Goes Deep(2/2)

Hudson's most powerful coach said no, and the others were even less sure.

Duke Hero raised the issue at this moment. It was obvious that the nobles in the North could not bear the pressure and wanted to beg him to find a solution quickly.

Didn't you expect that not only did Hudson not buy it, but after conducting an in-depth analysis, he directly said: "How to fight that battle?"

There is no doubt that no one has an answer to that question. If you don't know how to fight, it won't be Hudson's turn.

Currently, those that provide strategic supplies to the kingdom are mainly interested in the central and southern provinces that have not been affected by the war. From the perspective of the kingdom, the security of those provinces is far more important than that of northern Xinjiang.

Once changes occur in those rear provinces, it will be useless no matter how well we fight in Northern Xinjiang. For a kingdom that lacks strategic support, its defeat will be a matter of time.

The fact is that external pressure on the kingdom has always existed. If it had not been for the great victory that Hudson had just achieved on the Western Front, the external controversy would have been even greater.

Now no one criticizes his strategy, but it could be that the Western Front was fought so beautifully and the battle-loss ratio is hard to fault.

Although the situation is deteriorating, it is not Hudson's fault. The allies' poor performance is a crime other than war.

After the meeting in the capital was hurriedly concluded, Hudson went straight to the front line. Trying to put pressure on him to change the current strategy was simply overthinking.

No matter how many opinions the nobles in northern Xinjiang have, they can't change the fact that the orcs are killing them at their doorstep. They want the main force of the kingdom to gather north, but they also face the dilemma of insufficient strategic supplies.

The two unchangeable real-world problems were superimposed, and many people began to suspect that the "north first, then west strategy" proposed by Hudson was purely used to deceive them based on whether they were in office or not.

There is no use in doubting that the military's strategic tilt in the north is obvious to all.

The Kingdom has spent a lot of money on the defense, but it is obviously unconvincing to say that the head coach of Hudson does not support the northern line.

Apart from Hudson, the only person who knew the story was Caesar IV. As for the spoils shared by everyone, he also played a key role in the strategic changes in the kingdom.

Now that the situation is deteriorating, we can first suffer the hardships of the noble lords in the north. Risks are directly proportional to returns. As much fun as we had in enclosing and expanding our territory in the past, we need to take as much risk as we can now.

Please be patient. If we don’t occupy so much land, the current pressure on national defense won’t be that great.

In the Warhammer Plains, Hudson led the expeditionary force to advance boldly. The foreign troops along the way fled, fearing that they would lose their lives if they reacted too slowly.

The Battle of Augustburg destroyed the arrogance of the coalition forces among the ancient remnants, and the mood of roasting groups has spread among all ethnic groups. Especially those ethnic groups whose entire army was wiped out on the front line, because all their information came from hearsay, and they were even more affected.

A large number of troops gathered in the Declas Province, and everyone had a sense of security, but the morale of the army was still low.

The common characteristic of a small race is that everyone has a close relationship. Whether they are relatives or friends, thousands of people die on the battlefield, and the whole race is shaken.

In order to stabilize the hearts of the people, kings of all races arrived at the front line one after another. King of more than a hundred races, large and small, gathered together to form a complete alliance of hundreds of races.

"I have learned all the information clearly. The enemy mistakenly claims to have an army of one hundred thousand, but in fact it only has more than thirty thousand troops, and no more than forty thousand at most.

The human race only has so few troops and they dare to go to their territory and make noises. They don't take the alliance to heart at all.

He suggested that everyone immediately use all their forces to surround and kill them in the Warhammer Plains, letting the humans know how powerful they are!"

The giant king with a loud voice was the first to shout.

The hatred between his brows, combined with his huge figure, was frightening to see.

"Let's not rush the matter of revenge. The enemies have entered the Warhammer Plains and will not escape for a while.

They misunderstood the enemy so poorly that they knew almost nothing except the number of troops and their commanders.

Who knows whether it is the enemy's conspiracy to engage in a decisive battle rashly, don't forget that they are all cavalry.

In the plains, most of them raced against the enemy's elite cavalry.

It seems that more than 30,000 enemy troops can be missed with 200,000 troops, but maybe when the battle comes, the enemy will actually gain a local advantage through high mobility.

The human race has a large population, so it doesn't matter if they lose tens of thousands of troops. But if they can't do it, if they can suffer another big defeat, I'm afraid most of the races present will not be able to bear it."

After hearing the words of the Shadow King, kings of all races agreed. Revenge is very important, but the continuation of the race is even more important.

If you try to forcibly redeem your son with the human race, even if you win, you will still lose blood.

The pain of Fort August has already weakened many races, and no one wants to experience it a second time.

"Then we can't wait to go east!

The enemy was marching very fast, and there were resistance armed forces along the way to provide convenience for them. Judging from the march route, it was obvious that they wanted to penetrate into the rear of the Southern Expedition Corps.

If you don’t block it, the enemy will go straight into the Principality of Oton, and attack the Southern Expedition Army with the army of the Principality of Mosi. It is very likely that the tragedy of Fort Augustus will be recreated!"

The Giant King said angrily.

For revenge, we must bring together the alliance. Without the help of allies, the giants' thousands of troops cannot defeat the enemy.

After all, there are very few kings with unique talents like him among the giants, and the largest number are not ordinary giants.

In terms of pure strength, an ordinary adult giant is comparable to a low-level knight.

Success depends on size, and failure depends on size. The expeditionary force is equipped with a large number of magic crossbows, and their big guys, several meters tall, are easy targets on the battlefield.

There are only a few giants and strong men who can rely on their strong defense and ignore the enemy's small magic crossbow attacks.

After a slight hesitation, the kings nodded. The safety of the Southern Expedition Army had to be considered. If they were attacked from both sides by the enemy, no one could guarantee that the defeat of Fort Augustus would not be repeated.

"The enemy is nearly a thousand miles away from the Principality of Oton. According to their current marching speed, it will take more than ten days.

Another 50,000 troops have been assembled from the rear, and they are expected to join them in five days. With the addition of troops gathered from all over the country, their total strength will once again exceed 300,000.

To be on the safe side, after gathering the absolute superiority of troops, they can then engage in a decisive battle with the enemy."

Seeing that the Shadow King made a concession, he hesitated slightly, and the Giant King also nodded slowly.

When it comes to "revenge", the more troops there are, the better. The current enemy is a famous general from the mainland, so no matter how cautious you are, you can't be too cautious.

Deep down in his heart, the Giant King always felt good, as if something big was about to happen.



As the army continued to penetrate deeper into the enemy's rear, Hudson became more and more cautious. Bu Mao arranged a large number of exploration horses, and asked Bear Stearns to go out for a walk every now and then to see if the enemy's army was moving in that direction.

The reality is completely opposite. Not to mention the fact that the enemy's main force cannot be seen, the enemy is too lazy to even arrange a small group of troops to harass.

If you do more, you will be wrong; if you do not, it will be good.

The enemy did not move, and Hudson was secretly worried. The troops he brought with him that time were all cavalry, and he had no interest in attacking the city.

If the enemy doesn't move, he can really lead his army into the Principality of Oton and attack the Southern Expedition Army on the wrong side with the Mossi people.

But the problem is that the expeditionary force is also outside the enemy's encirclement. It cannot make a breakthrough in a short time, and will also fall into the enemy's siege from all sides.



"Three hundred miles away, the enemy has an army of tens of thousands of people, converging on the province of Declas.

Bear Stearns, are you sure I read that correctly?”

Hudson asked in surprise.

A distance of three hundred miles is a safe distance for two large armies, but that depends on which army it is.

Ordinary cavalry can rush for three hundred miles and be able to directly push the horses to the east, but the expeditionary army is different.

With Ha's magic potion, the war horse can run for three hundred miles and still be vigorous and vigorous.

"Hudson, do I doubt that Ben Xiong doesn't know how to count?"

Faced with Bear Stearns' question, Hudson smiled awkwardly. There was no need to worry about the cub's mathematical talent.
