Shaman from Afar

Beyond the Silver Helmet, Byrne Barracks.

Sitting on the bed, the dark-haired wizard, who squinted at the Count Eckert of the Fury Castle, said nothing from beginning to end, listening carefully to the news about the decisive battle.

It wasn't until Eckert stopped speaking, and a full minute later, Loren sighed softly:

"What is the situation now-not only the Poi army, but also the security of Archduke Varna."

The Earl of Fury shook his head.

"Very bad."

"Very bad." He emphasized again:

"Half of the Boi army was killed, the core silver armor was killed by strangling; all the remaining armies were also surrounded by the enemy on the grass field, and they would be swallowed at any time-even if the enemy did not move, they would take care of them. It ’s not very plentiful ... "

Eckert's tone was very heavy: "The enemy has set up a blockade around the battlefield, killing the horseback people who are single and the brigade that delivers supplies ... They don't know that the front line has been surrounded, but it should not be long before it should be Can perceive. "

"And the army waiting until the back line found that it would withdraw to Thousand Account City when there was no commander-in-chief; as a result, the probability of the besieged Poi army breaking through was even lower."

"As for Grand Duke Laszlo Varna ..." Eckert sighed, his eyes flashing: "The messenger who sent the information said very vaguely, but from his appearance-either dead or missing Yes; I prefer to believe in the latter, but it should be the former. "

"The people who are commanding the entire army of Poi at the moment are Master Harlemfan Ashamai and Earl Seth Braha; the Earl was seriously injured, so most of the time, Master Ashamai was in charge. It is difficult to say whether they are Morale and determination to continue fighting. "

"I'm not a person who likes to make alarmist talks, Duke; but now the situation in Poi ... has reached a dangerous situation in a thousand times!"

"Sounds like this." Loren raised his eyes calmly:

"But listening to your tone, it seems that you don't want me to rescue the Boi people so much?"

"In terms of morality and the relationship between the two principalities, we must save them; otherwise, Boye will be over, and the friendship between Byrne and Boye's blood is thicker than water!"

Eckert looked tense: "But it's a trap ... The Centaurs kept the Boys without killing them immediately, just hoping for reinforcements to save them."

"On the battlefield, doing what the enemy wants us to do is the most stupid act!"

The dark-haired wizard nodded, understanding the story of the Earl of the Fury.

If you immediately lead the Baine army who has just experienced a **** battle and return to the grassland battlefield to rescue Laszlo Varna, let ’s talk about morale and casualties first ... The battlefield, the only ending is to be siege.

After all, according to the Poi Herald, the total number of Centaurs is around 100,000; even if there are already a certain number of casualties and if you want to surround the Poi, the force is still much larger than yourself.

Not only that, Eckert ’s ideas also represent the attitude of the Earls of Byrne to a certain extent ... It is very contradictory to have to save but do not want to take the initiative to die.

And at this moment, Salika Jonah is probably in the same dilemma-from her heart, she absolutely hopes that Grand Duke Varna will be crushed by centaurs, but surrounded by the Poi army Many of them are horseback men led by Da Boyi, and they are all her people.

After she inherited the title and became the Grand Duke of Poi, all the losses of this war will also become her losses; once the 100,000 elite damages are exhausted, the Poi under her rule will also become hundreds. Boyi, the weakest and most helpless in years.

She definitely doesn't do it!

After thinking for a moment, Loren looked at Eckert again: "What is your opinion ... Retreat westward, and hold the Thousand Account City with the grandson of Grand Duke Varna and the horseback people who have been withdrawn?"

"No, it's not Thousand Account City."

Shaking his head slightly, Eckert ’s expression was so calm at the moment, and his eyes were absolutely utterly: “We must retreat to the territory of Bayern as soon as possible, guard the Bayern Frontier with the core of Wangwang Peak as the core, waiting for the Empire ’s reinforcements or the assembly of troops Prepare to counterattack. "

"what did you say?!"

Loren's eyelids jumped, how shocked his expression was.

He couldn't believe his ears. He believed that this would be what Ector said.

"If we don't go to rescue Grand Duke Varna and sit back and watch the destruction of the 100,000 troops, then Boye is completely over." The Count of Fury said coldly:

"Under such a battle situation, it is meaningless to stick to Qiancheng City; in the past Qian Qian City's strength was based on her special geographical location, and the two strong and mutually supporting territories based on East and West, both of which are indispensable."

"Now, the big Boyi collar has been destroyed, and the little Boyi collar has hollowed out his home, a lone city ... In addition to sitting and watching Boye destroyed, and finally being completely trapped to death by the enemy, it will not have any impact on the battle situation."

Looking at the face of the dark-haired wizard, Eckert continued to explain: "In the ten days you ... we were besieging Silver Helmet Mountain, your Union Chamber of Commerce sent an intelligence about the empire."

"The three imperial legions and their auxiliary corps that should have been rectified in turn were not disbanded but headed north-nominally a fortified mountain fortress, but they were placed on the border between Poi and East Sakland."

"Obviously, the empire is ready to send troops ... The three legions, even without the power of Byrne and Boye, are enough to fight against the Centaur."

"Imperial Corps ..." Loren thought about: "Do you know who the commander is?"

"It's not clear, but there is a very bad rumor ... This time, His Majesty Eckhart II seems to be planning to lead his own army and go to the Great Green Sea."

After talking, Eckert couldn't help but sigh heavily.

Originally entrusted with high hopes, in order to restore the reputation of Byrne's reputation in the Centaur War; in the end, it became the end of the destruction of Boe, and the emperor saved the empire ...

Even if Selika Jonah was not happy, she had to accept the assistance of His Majesty the Emperor to reinvigorate the Principality of Boe because she had no choice.

What's more, even if she is not happy, there are also the Boi who are willing; the emperor can put her aside and support the grandson of Grand Duke Varna ... Salika can't afford this risk.

Looking at the silent two, the atmosphere became a bit low.

"So ... this is over." Hard breathing out, Loren leaned on the bed behind him, folded his hands together: "After so many sacrifices and so many difficult battles, I have to give the most credit to the end. give others?"

Actor, who frowned, bowed his head slightly, his eyes dropped: "This is ... the most reasonable choice; not to mention that you have proven yourself and got your own loot."

"Trophy?" Loren chewed the word.

"You have captured the Fortress of Silver Helmet; no matter what, for what, what is hidden ... The facts will not change." Eckert said softly, but it sounded more like comfort: "This is the twelfth generation. , A great undertaking that all Duke Byrnes failed to complete. "

"Even the Black Duke failed to do it."

But his comfort seemed more ironic to Loren.

The capture of the Fortress of Silver Helmet is a more brilliant cause than Roland Turin ... but it is a trap set by "Black Cross" Serior, a complete trap.

So what's next, "Black Cross" Serel ... what would he hope to do?

Fleeing far away, I watched the Principality of Boe and the dwarf's Yunling Kingdom destroyed by him step by step. Was the empire's strength weakened again?

That's right, this is definitely a very reasonable decision, and any decision-maker who stays calm and sensible will think so ... Taking risks when the power is damaged and is far weaker than the enemy is crazy and extremely irresponsible.

Any thoughts that a "sensible" and "calm" decision maker would have ...

That must be what the "Black Cross" hopes to have.

Whatever the purpose, he worked so hard to weaken the strength of the empire itself, as well as the principalities and important allies, must be for a certain purpose; today is the Kingdom of Poi and Yunling, will it be Bayern ’s turn tomorrow Yourself?

Is it possible ... is it impossible?

"Thank you, Eckert, and thank you for inspiring me so hard." Loren turned his head and looked at the count of the angercastle: "But I still want to do something."

"I don't want to bring the living and dead soldiers back to Bain so gray; I want them to stand tall and proudly triumphant!"

Eckert's brows grew deeper, his eyes hesitant and complicated.

"Then as a member of your round table council, and one of the" most qualified "members, I must remind you that doing so would have very dangerous consequences." He said softly:

"This is a very unwise and emotional decision. You may also bury the entire expeditionary force and sacrifice more people or even your own life; you are doing this by putting the entire destiny of Byrne at risk. in."

"Besides, even if you do this, it will not necessarily make the situation better, or even worse."

He looked at his duke so quietly, his eyes recalling the scene when he and everyone crowned him that day.

"But ... what does that matter?"

Eckert's voice trembled slightly:

"When Ed Turin was besieging the dwarf castle, he didn't think about it for a second;

On the day when Roland Turin went to death on the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain, he saw an existence we could not see; "

"The Duke of Byrne will never be swayed by the will of his subjects; Byne's fine wine and knight cast her strength, but they became great by the Duke who led her forward!"

"So, if this is your will ..." Ector slowly got up and even kneeled on Loren's bed with some difficulty on one knee:

"Aikete of the Fury Castle will serve you wholeheartedly, and will never die!"

With a sigh of relief, the dark-haired wizard had a smile on his pale face.

"Of course, we are still at a disadvantage now."

Sitting back in his seat, Eckert calmly analyzed: "After the Battle of Silver Helmet, our army suffered more than a third of casualties, and the wounded soldiers alone will drag on a lot; not to mention the main force of Boyi, we Almost alone, we must face the Centaurs alone. "

"Inwardly, we are temporarily unable to receive assistance from our country, and Poi has lost all of his final capital;

Externally, we don't know what attitude the dwarf's Yunling Kingdom is. The centaur has completely blocked the battlefield, and we can't get around it.

So in common sense, we have no chance of winning. "

"So, we must break the common sense, or ... change the mind." Shrugging, Loren took over his words: "This war Centaur has won the most crucial battle, and even will soon win all the victory, this Is the truth."

"But the other fact is ... they just occupy a large advantage, and even have to be dragged down because of this advantage."

After thinking for a moment, Eckert's expression showed a little bit: "You mean to say ..."

"You mentioned that while they were besieging Boe's main force, they were still madly looting the surrounding brigades and horsebacks." Loren said lightly:

"Why is that?"

"Because their supply line has been cut off by us, there are very few logistical loads left." Without thinking, Eckert blurted out directly: "So they must not be able to hold on for too long!"

"Right now, what is the most important thing for the Centaurs?" Loren seemed to ask questions, but he was talking to himself: "It is to completely wipe out the main force of this Poi army and kill them. . "

"Only in this way can they come to occupy the entire Great Green Sea and even the Principality of Poi, instead of always being immobilized by this army. The huge force cannot be moved, and even beware of counterattacks and external rescue."

"This is the real situation right now ... Centaurs are about to win, and even have an absolute upper hand, but it does not mean that they have won. Instead, they are on the most vulnerable edge of the balance between victory and defeat. Any little movement can be Break this balance immediately. "

A faint smile appeared on Loren's face: "And if we leave, we will retreat to Qianhu City or even Wangfeng Peak and give them victory victory ... that is the foundation for their victory."

"So, do you think we should join this battle ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ become a variable?" Eckert asked thoughtfully: "Go to break the balance in this battle?"

"No, it's not just that." Raising the corner of his mouth, Loren's eyes showed a flash of cunning.

"Ok?"

"To make the Centaur afraid and break the balance among them, our own strength is still slightly insufficient." The black-haired wizard shook his head: "So ... we have to use other people's chess pieces by the way."

Others' chess pieces?

"Boy's reinforcements in Thousand Accounts City, the Imperial Legion of East Sackland, and ... the dwarves of Silverhelm Mountain." Loren said lightly:

"What do you think would happen if they attacked the Centaurs at the same time?"

"This is impossible!"

Eckert asserted, but then smiled:

"But we can try to make it look really possible."
