"grown ups."

Two guards entered the study, knelt on one knee, and saluted respectfully.

"Clean this place up."

After saying this, Irus's face turned gloomy. He threw the knight's sword on the ground and turned to leave the study.

"Dobik, that damn bastard, this guy who got to the top by selling his ass, after I get through this crisis, I will definitely report him to the king."

There were over 100,000 alien god troops in front and over 100,000 enemy troops in the south. With only 210,000 troops under his command and two powerful saint seal masters from the Scrabster family, he had no confidence in defending the province of Soller.

Three hours later, in the castle hall, Irus saw Gref walking towards him.

"Good afternoon, Marquis Irus." Gref placed his right hand on his chest and bowed slightly to show his respect.

Irus gestured to the other party to encourage him, invited him to sit down, and got straight to the point: "General Gref, that bastard Dobick first lost the Badak Province, and a few days ago he gave up the County of Carrigus and handed over the southern barrier of Soller Province to the enemy. Now it has been occupied by the enemy, and they will attack our Tenth Legion soon. What do you say we should do?"

Gleif looked at the map hanging on the wall, thought for a moment, and shook his head helplessly: "Lord Irus, given the current situation, if we want to retake Carrigus County, we must have three times the number of troops as the enemy."

After hearing Gref's answer, Irus fell into a rage again and cursed loudly: "I will definitely take revenge on that guy who sold his ass to get to the top. I will definitely take revenge on him."

Looking at the shrew-like Marquis Irus, Gref stood quietly aside without saying a word to comfort him.

As a general of the kingdom, he also looked down on this guy Dobik, but he had no choice but that the other party had a higher military rank than him. If he talked about it in public, it might cause gossip, so he decided to be cautious.

After venting his anger, Irus took a deep breath, looked at Gref, and asked, "General Gref, you are the general in the kingdom who is best at fighting defensive battles. Given the current situation, how do you think we should deal with it?"

Gref pointed to several important fortresses on the map, then to a river, and suggested, "The origin of the Soller River is located at the central peak, running through several regions, flowing through the Soller Province, and entering the Sea Breeze Province of the Ansa Kingdom."

"We will block the river in the middle and accumulate river water. It will only take half a month to release the water to flood the Earldom of Obra and the northeastern region of Seawind Province, thus slowing down the enemy's march."

"The county of Carrigus in the south is the southern gateway of Soller Province. It is basically impossible to retake it now, but we can deploy a large number of small troops in this mountainous area, destroy the roads, and let the beast masters of the Church of the God of Beasts help drive away the monsters and attack the enemy forces in the south."

"During this period of time, all the young and strong men in Soller Province, regardless of gender, will be recruited and given weapons. They will be used as cannon fodder and stationed in various cities along the southern front to reinforce the fortresses and consume the enemy's numbers and energy."

"In addition, around Soller City, we can destroy the terrain, set traps, and raise poisonous snakes, insects, and ants. We can use the old and weak to feed them, increase the toxicity and aggressiveness of the snakes and insects, and provide them for the wild animals to attack."

"Finally, Marquis Irus, you can dig a tunnel in case of emergency."

After hearing Grev's plan, Irus fell silent for a moment.

He thought of himself as a ruthless person who would do anything to achieve his goals, but he didn't expect that compared with Gref, he was still far inferior!

"Lord Coleridge Obra, it will only be hard for him."

Irus pretended to be helpless and said with some sadness.

Seeing this, Gref agreed, "Lord Marquis Irus, I believe that once Count Coleridge Obra knows about this, he will definitely forgive you."

"Of course, if he is dead, he will definitely forgive you. If he is alive, it depends on how you make him die normally." Gref said silently in his heart.

Irus pretended to be in pain and said, "General Gref, I leave Soller Province in your hands."

Gref naturally heard the hidden meaning in Irus' words.

Except for the 50,000 troops under his command and their families, the entire province of Soller was at his disposal. He was willing to pay any price as long as he could defend the province of Soller.

"I will obey your orders, Lord Irus."

After seeing Gleif off, Irus walked back and forth in the castle hall. After careful consideration, he decided to send his family out of Soller Province first.

On the second day, a large number of troops entered the city of Soller and surrounding areas. With the cooperation of grassroots officials, a large number of young and strong people were brought into the military camp.

The entire province of Soller has a population of more than two million. Excluding the families of the soldiers of the Irus Legion and the families of other nobles and their troops, the number of able-bodied men that can be recruited is about 600,000.

In other areas of the Province of Soller, most of the troops took advantage of the action of capturing able-bodied men to plunder money and materials, rape and loot, and commit all kinds of evil.

Gref directly acquiesced to this move and only required the surrender of 30% of the looted wealth.

……

In Carrigus County, Houston Province, Kyle looked at the information in his hand and felt a little confused.

He was a little confused about what was happening in the province of Soller.

Kyle raised his head, glanced at the generals of the Black Rock Army and the Thousand Fort Army, and asked, "What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Fei Rui walked out of the queue, beat his chest and saluted, and said, "Lord Kyle, the enemy wants to use ordinary people to consume the energy of our lower-level soldiers and combat energy."

"is it?"

"Sir, when the Ansa Kingdom and the Geman Kingdom went to war in the past, both countries used similar tactics in the mountainous and hilly areas."

"Although ordinary people are very vulnerable, dozens or even hundreds of ordinary people attacking a professional soldier may kill him."

Kyle nodded, waved his hand to signal the other party to leave, and then continued: "Three days later, the entire army will set out."

"Yes, sir," everyone answered loudly.

After the generals of the two armies left the tent, Kyle looked at the terrain on the map, then looked at the Soller River that was thousands of kilometers long, and suddenly understood something.

In the evening, a group of knights left the camp with Kyle's letter.

In the city of Carrigs, after receiving Kyle's letter, Weilin carefully speculated and analyzed it, wrote a letter, and asked the guard knight to deliver the letter to Earl Russell, the commander of the 18th Army.

As for Count Coleridge Obra who wanted to surrender, Weilin called a shadow guard and asked him to contact the earl to see if he wanted to surrender.
