Chapter 183 Psychological Game (Part )

Three poles in the sun.

In the temporary command post, the atmosphere became increasingly solemn. Everyone was cautious and hurried, for fear of being angered by the Legion Commander.

At ten o'clock last night, the temporary command post received news from the First Wolf Cavalry Brigade.

More than 700 riders of the Second Wolf Cavalry, starting from Captain Warwick, were completely wiped out by the enemy in a valley 30 kilometers west of the Orinhe Ferry.

According to the analysis of the scene, Warwick and others stepped into the enemy's trap while chasing the target, and were burned to pieces by the enemy. A small number of wolf cavalry who emerged from the sea of ​​​​fire also fell while charging desperately towards the enemy. On the road.

Only a hundred wolf cavalrymen who had divided their troops and rushed to several passes farther south to inquire about the situation survived.

The First Wolf Cavalry Brigade stated in the military report that the enemy should not have gone far yet, and they had already traced the enemy's traces according to the remaining traces of the enemy.

Johnny's risky plan to pursue him at night made the regiment leader Hank very dissatisfied. However, since he could not contact the other party in time, he had no choice but to let Johnny take risks.

But as soon as day breaks, Hank receives news that dazzles him. Johnny's 1st Wolf Cavalry Battalion marches at night and catches up with their target.

A fierce battle broke out between the two sides on the north bank of the Orin River, but cunning humans had set a trap early. A premeditated flash flood directly destroyed the 1st Wolf Cavalry Brigade.

"Arrogant fool! Not only did we march at night in the Evernight Forest, but we actually stepped into the enemy's trap! Such an incompetent person missed my big deal and actually licked his face and wanted to win the cavalry battalion commander?!"

Hank's roar resounded throughout the temporary command post. He had been a little anxious at most when faced with Levi's wandering in and out, but within one day he received news that two cavalry brigades had been completely destroyed, which completely broke his defense.

At first, he thought that the mission of the legion he led to besiege and kill Levi was just a warm-up activity after a break. After all, Evernight Forest-Kanse River Logistics Manager Swain provided a very stable tactic, and he had already The mobilization of troops blocked most of Livy's room for movement.

As a result, when Swain completely delegated power to Hank, Hank actually killed two-thirds of his cavalry battalion, or even more.

You know, the legion led by Hank only has three battalions in total, and there is only one cavalry battalion. In this way, even if Hank finally captures Levi this time, his full legion will be half useless. , he, the legion commander, might have reached his end.

"Lord Legion Commander, we have just received news from the enemy. According to the information gathered from our scouts and reconnaissance bases, the enemy may be heading northwest."

The soldier timidly handed over the military report, fearing that the commander of his own army would be angry, so he slapped him into the ground.

"northwest?"

Hank took the military newspaper and read it three times. Then he walked to the map and began to study it carefully.

[Is the other party feinting again this time? Or are they really going northwest? 】

Hank was hesitant for a moment. He was already confused by Levi's attacking style.

"Mirsad, you are the author of this battle plan and the plenipotentiary representative of Director Swain. I want to hear your opinion."

"Legion Commander, if I have any opinions, it's all up to you to decide."

"What? Do you look down on me?"

"No, no, no, Lord Legion, you misunderstood me. I respect you very much, and I respect every decision and order you make. My abilities are limited and I cannot compare with you. I really can't see the true movements of the enemy clearly. "

"Okay, since you respect every decision and order I make, I will order you to express your opinion."

"This -" Mirsad saw Hank's eyes getting colder and colder, and immediately said: "Master Legion, I think that if you want to understand the enemy's true intentions, you must understand the enemy's situation and use this to judge their final outcome. Purpose.

First of all, I think the enemy's greatest possibility is to conserve their strength and jump out of our encirclement.

Judging from the fighting situation before the enemy arrived at Orinhe, the enemy has always avoided direct confrontation with us, preferring to take a long detour rather than engage in another possible battle.

In this case, the commander has only two reasons. One is that a considerable part of the army he leads is his private army, and he does not want to lose his private army at all.

The second reason is that he still has ideas about our food road. As long as his strength is maintained at a passable threshold, the threat to our food road is huge. After all, the food team only has so many guards and its combat power is very limited. .

But this has been the case in the past few days. After arriving at Orinhe, the enemy's ideas may change.

If, I mean if, Commander Hank, do you think it is possible for the enemy to make a desperate attack on a large transit warehouse located to the northwest of them? After all, that warehouse is not too far from the enemy.

There are more than 10,000 tons of grain stored there. Once that large transfer warehouse is destroyed, in a more serious case, our frontline troops may be forced to retreat due to lack of logistical supplies. "

"Have the enemy lost their minds and gone crazy? How can they attack that large transit warehouse? Not to mention that we will be chased and intercepted in the process. There are always defenders in large transit warehouses. It is not something they can easily break through with their small number of people."

Mirsad shook his head and said: "Master Hank, the enemy's purpose of sneaking into the Evernight Forest this time is to disturb our food routes. This is their ultimate mission.

They have been trying to preserve their strength before and just want to continue to carry out this task, but once their losses reach a certain level and they are unable to harass our food routes for a long time, but they are still barely able to fight, then they may indeed take risks and launch a big wave. of. "

At this time, Hank's expression also became serious. Although he thought Mirsad's idea was a bit unreasonable, wasn't the opponent's commander a person who didn't play by common sense?

"Before the other party arrived at Orinhe, I once estimated that the other party should have more than 500 and less than 600 people left. This number is indeed barely enough to provide a sustained deterrent to the grain road.

I believe that in yesterday's day's battle, the enemy must have paid a heavy price. Even if we calculate on a smaller scale and they only lost 150 people, then the final number of enemies will most likely be less than 400.

This quantity still poses a threat to the small food team, but if the opponent consumes it twice without supply of soldiers, the threat to the food road will be completely lost.

So I think it is possible for the enemy to fight hard after this time. "
