Infinite Movie World

Kayle City is located on the west bank of the Anduin River, bordering the Kingdom of Arnor and the Kingdom of Rohan. It nominally belongs to the Kingdom of Arnor, but its geographical location is far away from the military fortress of the Kingdom of Arnor. It is closer to Keepwatch in the Kingdom of Rohan.

To be honest, from the perspective of terrain, the geographical location of Carlyle City is not good, and it is not a battleground for military strategists.

What's more terrible is that Carlyle City has hardly developed its own fortifications. It is just an ordinary human town. Most of its soldiers are knights brought by Earl William. The number of troops that can be used for combat is only 2000.

Even if the whole city is mobilized and untrained youths are formed into a militia force, only 5000 people can fight.

It is conceivable that the fighting power of these people is impossible to confront the frontal army of Gondor and Rohan.

Of course, Carlyle City is not completely without a little advantage.

Between Carlyle City and Overwatch Castle, there is a dense primeval forest. This primeval forest is part of the Dark Forest, and there are many monsters in it. Therefore, the Gondor coalition forces want to go straight to Carlyle City from Overwatch Fort. , then all the monsters in this primitive dark forest must be cleaned up first, otherwise, it will be difficult for their army to rush to Kaile City in one breath.

This is also the reason why, although Carlyle City is closer to Rohan's Fort Watch in a straight line, but Watch Fort has never had the idea of ​​Carlyle City.

After all, if you want to invade Kaile City, you have to clean up the dense Mirkwood, and the invasion itself will cause the dissatisfaction of the Arno Kingdom, and it will also lead to sanctions from the Holy White Council. There is nothing luscious about Leicheng, it is completely tantamount to tasteless.

Of course, things are different now.

If the Allied forces of Gondor want to attack the city of Carlyle, then they will definitely gather heavy troops in the Fort of the Watch, and use the Fort of the Watch as a fulcrum to attack the city of Carlyle.

The more troops the opponent had, the more demands they would have on the supply line. Looking at all the positions on the entire sand table, only this Fortress in the Rohan Empire could become the most forward position.

Therefore, Xufeng decisively pointed to the location of Fort Watchman.

Captain Mino said impatiently: "I know a little bit about Fort Watch. There are about 1000 Rohan defenders there. Since they will use it as a rallying point, we might as well preemptively go in and destroy Fort Watch. They have no fulcrum available”

Earl William looked at Captain Mino in surprise, "Master Mino, I can't tell, you still have a tactical mind."

Captain Mino laughed, "So-so."

Xufeng looked at the topographic map of the sand table and asked with a smile: "What about other people's opinions?"

Earl William said with a smile: "I also agree with Captain Mino. In fact, I wanted to say it just now, but Captain Mino preempted it."

Earl William looked rather annoyed.

Captain Mino laughed, as if he had won a move.

The two are no longer enemies, but almost everything has to be divided into highs and lows.

Liszt, the head of the elf guard, thought about it seriously, and then nodded, "I agree."

Xuedi said indifferently: "I have no objection."

She neither agreed nor disagreed, because she knew that Xufeng's agreement was the real agreement.

Xufeng looked around, "Do you have a different opinion?"

The crowd shook their heads.

After all, the situation shown in the sand table is already very clear. Fort Overwatch is the key to this battle. If Fort Overwatch is destroyed, the enemy will have no fulcrum.

Without the fulcrum, the enemy will fall into a more troublesome state.

Anyone who knows a little bit about military affairs understands this truth.

Xufeng smiled faintly, "It seems that everyone didn't choose to disagree, so I have."

All the people present widened their eyes in astonishment, and looked at Xufeng in bewilderment.

Xufeng said lightly: "Let me ask you, what is our purpose in this battle?"

Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you. In the end, the more experienced Earl William said: "Of course it is to defeat the coalition forces, win this war, and defend the city of Carlyle."

Everyone immediately nodded in agreement.

Xufeng smiled, "That's very good, and it's true. Our purpose of this war is to defend Kailye City, so that the coalition forces will not dare to attack Kailyn City again. Listen carefully, this war , the focus is on defense, not confrontation."

Earl William asked puzzledly: "Master Dragon Slayer, you mean that we should hide and defend? However, the fortifications of Carlyle City are very poor, and they cannot be defended at all."

Captain Mino also said: "That's right, Lord Dragon Slayer, we can better protect Kaile City only by attacking decisively and destroying Fort Watch. Isn't there a saying that the best defense is to attack."

Everyone nodded in agreement, except Xuedi who didn't.

Xufeng said lightly: "You guys are still too tender."

Chapter 1546 Prepare for Battle

If others said they were "too tender", they would definitely be very angry, but when the dragon slayer said they were tender, they were convinced and waited expectantly for the dragon slayer to give them an explanation.

After all, this is not an opportunity for everyone.

A series of wonderful battles 70 years ago has already shown that the dragon slayer is a real master of tactics, and also the person who created the most miracles of war in the entire history of the human race.

Being able to directly receive the teachings of the dragon slayer is a blessing that cannot be cultivated in a few lifetimes

Xufeng said lightly: "We might as well deduce it. If we want to destroy Fort Watch before the coalition forces arrive, then what should we do now?"

Earl William said: "Assemble the army."

Mino said: "Guaranteed logistical supplies."

Elf Captain Liszt took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "No, we must first clear the Mirk Forest, otherwise, when our army passes through the Mirk Forest, it will be easy to be attacked by the monsters in it. We'll lose half our army before we reach Keepwatch."

When everyone heard it, they were shocked.

Xufeng nodded with a smile, "Xiao Lizi, you've finally opened your mind."

Liszt blushed, the elf man was already handsome, but the blushing made him even more handsome.

Xufeng went on to say: "You all set your sights on the Fort Watcher, but you have neglected that there is a pure natural barrier between us and the Fort Watcher, which is this vast primitive dark forest. In terms of distance, if you want to It will take at least two days for a troop of 2000 people to pass through the dark jungle. The more troops, the more time it will take, because we must always be on guard against soldiers who are attacked by monsters from the side. The longer the stretch, the more cautious we have to be, and the more inevitable losses will be, unless we can completely clean up this Mirkwood. By the time we finally pass through the Mirkwood, maybe the coalition forces at Fort Watch have already assembled After all, Fort Watcher is the territory of the Kingdom of Rohan, and Rohan's army will arrive soon. At that time, we will have to fight hard with the defenders of Rohan, even if we can take Fort Watch and destroy it. Fort Fortress, we also have to withdraw quickly before their reinforcements arrive. And when we retreat, we will pass through the dark jungle again, and then we will lose part of our troops. After tossing back and forth, the coalition forces lost a Fortress of Fortress and some troops, and we At least half of the troops will be lost. Such a battle loss ratio is absolutely unacceptable to me."

Only then did everyone realize the problem.

Indeed, there is a dense forest running through the middle. If they want to forcibly attack Fortress, they will definitely pay a very serious price.

Xufeng went on to say: "Once we lose more than half of our troops, then the coalition forces will have a chance to win. They don't even have to repair the Fort Watcher, and they can directly send troops through the Dark Forest, even if they also lose their troops in the Dark Forest. But most of their troops will reach our city of Kailei. By that time, we will not have strong defenses, and secondly, we will not have enough troops. How can we fight them? We can fight more or less, but Saruman will definitely send a strong opponent to attack us, in that case, Kailye City will definitely be breached."

Everyone was silent, and they realized the seriousness of the problem.

Iron Hammer sighed, "It would be great if there was a Zhenzhi tank, but unfortunately, the water truck has just started, and the lathe equipment for making the tank has not yet been built. If you want to mass-produce the Zhenzhi tank, it will not take a month or two." No way."

Xue Di said indifferently: "We can't last that long."

Liszt asked: "Master Dragon Slayer, how do you think we should fight this battle? Or should I send people to Rydel and the Golden Forest for help? Ask them to send two thousand elf soldiers each?"

Xufeng shook his head, "No, for one thing, both Rydel and the Golden Forest need troops to guard, Rydel needs to guard against the Witch King of Angmar, and the Golden Forest needs to guard against Isinger Tower. Second, if we If there are all elf soldiers around, it is likely to arouse the hostility of the human race towards the elves, we are an alliance, and the consumption of civil wars between races is unacceptable."
