Chapter 171 Contest of Thinking
As his thoughts surged, he turned his right wrist and his figure quickly faded little by little.
Crea, the temporary resting place of the garrison, was inside the tent belonging to Gray Lint. He took back the "Chain of Artifice" and checked it, and confirmed that nothing happened during this period, and he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
He was about to transform Marionette back into "Alister", but suddenly stopped.
"The identity of 'Graylint' is to lead the armored cavalry and take the initiative to attack the enemy! Then why do I have to change back? In terms of physical fitness, even if he is not demonized, Morgan also has the 'Corrupted Baron'
' and the 'Apostle of Desire', he might be better than me... The most important thing is that he is just a marionette! It is perfect for charging into battle!"
After making up his mind, the fleshy buds on Glerint's face squirmed, his body shortened, and he quickly transformed into "Alister".
…………
Early the next morning, when it was just dawn.
This 300-man cavalry was organized into an "Iron Cavalry Battalion", with a total of 6 companies. There were no chief or deputy battalion commanders, and they usually only took orders from general-level officers. This time Wodehouse overstepped his rank and delegated troop deployment authority to Gray Lint, and he was not allowed to do so.
Needless to say, I still took some risks.
After holding the "Acting Battalion Commander's Order" and having a brief understanding and communication with the six company commanders, "Graylinte" and the accompanying "Alister" took the lead in riding out in the heavy frost in the morning.
to the garrison barracks.
This season is actually not suitable for the Loen soldiers who live in the northern temperate zone all year round to fight.
But if Fusak wanted to fight, there was nothing he could do.
Both humans and horses have taken measures to keep out the cold as well as protect themselves. Gray Lint also wore a layer of full-body armor.
Da da da……
The chaotic sound of horse hooves shattered the tranquility of Crea's morning, and also shattered Gray Linte's thoughts.
Apart from guns and ammunition, this group of armored cavalry carried neither wound medicine nor food. Under normal circumstances, that should be the responsibility of the logistics group and the medical group.
There was no need to run at full speed. Two hours later, they approached the second city that was attacked.
"Batalion Commander, what should we do?"
The person who asked the question was the captain of the first company, a tough man in his thirties, Dorigo.
It was okay when we passed the first city that was attacked. It was close to Kriya, and the Feysac enemy forces did not dare to be too aggressive. The situation here is not good, with several small groups of Feysac enemy troops.
Controlling the right of way from various roads, the garrison here did not dare to leave the city to meet the enemy.
Graylint understood the meaning of Dorigo's question.
If you want to fight, you should just rush over.
Fighting can alleviate the fighting pressure here, but if they are entangled by the enemy, the subsequent support process will be difficult.
The same goes for charging directly. As long as the enemy discovers the support, as soon as the telegram is sent over, a large number of enemy troops will come to surround and kill them, preventing them from cooperating with the soldiers stationed in the city to attack from a pinch.
And here is at least sixty or seventy miles away from the destination.
Controlling the marionette and using the telescope to carefully inspect the situation ahead, "Graylint" ordered in a cold voice:
"Ride your horse and charge forward, don't be too eager to fight."
With that said, he clamped his horse's belly and took the lead in leading the team to rush out.
They were in the rear of the enemy. When they got closer, the small group of Fusac occupying the enemy's path discovered them, and then he took out the "Hymn of Courage" and blew it hard.
Woo...
When the low and long horn sound sounded, the spear heads of the armored cavalry were already less than 200 meters away from the enemy occupying the road.
Bang...bang bang...bang...bang bang bang...
A round of shooting broke out between the two sides, and the horses' momentum continued unabated.
On one side is a battalion of fully armored cavalry, which is better than scratching an itch when the bullets hit them. On the other side, there are only dozens of infantry occupying the road, so the result is self-evident.
In just one round of attack, the cavalry camp completely defeated the enemy without any damage.
Instead of trying to kill all the enemy soldiers to prevent the news from leaking, Gray Lint immediately led the team and rushed over. In the current situation, even if they wiped out all the enemy soldiers, the enemy would not receive news from them for a while, and it would be very difficult for them to receive any news from them.
Problems will be discovered soon.
After breaking through four more passes blocked by enemy troops occupying the road, the cavalry battalion crossed the second city that was attacked.
Next is the third city, which will also be the most dangerous one. They should have received the news by now.
Cross over and you will see Brother Zhaluo.
The cavalry stopped for a moment.
"What to do now? Battalion Commander."
"Take a detour or wait and rush again later?"
The safest way is of course to go around the third city from behind, but this would take more than 40 miles, and the enemy might ambush their thoughts in advance.
Looking at Dorigo's solemn expression, "Gray Linte" grinned:
"Detour! Go around from behind the enemy."
"What? Walking into enemy-occupied territory?"
"this……"
Madison, the commander of the third company, shouted loudly and looked at each other with the other five people. They were all people with good military vision.
It's indeed a good idea, but...
"Would it be too risky?"
Dorigo asked Glerint cautiously, but he didn't persuade him in any overbearing way, he just reminded him.
"Graylint" glanced at him and saw that the other five company commanders were looking at him, so he explained:
"At this time, if you don't want to take risks, you have to go back 120 miles and pass through the edge of the ancient deep forest. The remaining three options are to go back 40 miles, rush directly, and go around the enemy-occupied area. Undoubtedly, the last option is the least likely to encounter the enemy.
Soldier."
But once you encounter enemy soldiers, it will be very troublesome and you will easily fall into a siege.
But in fact the other two paths are the same.
"The Fusac people already know about our support, which means that if we encounter enemy soldiers on the other two roads, the situation will never be better than the third one."
There is no need to add "persuasion". As long as Gray Lint said it, the six of them will understand it.
So everyone no longer hesitated, and eight people, including "Alister", immediately drove their horses to the right and went deep into the enemy-occupied area.
After marching in depth for more than 30 miles, the group of them did not encounter any interception, not even the enemy troops blocking the pass at the pass. They successfully bypassed the third besieged city and were about 100 meters away from Charoluo.
Brother, it seems that it is only about ten miles away.
It's not that there are no traces of people along the way, but at this time the two countries are at war, there are fewer pedestrians, and it is impossible for them to notify Fusak quickly - even if they were informed, Fusak would not believe such intelligence from unknown sources.
Therefore, Gray Lint did not order all of them to be silenced.
"Xu~"
After marching for 80% of the distance, Glerint suddenly reined in the reins, and the cavalry behind them also stopped.
He felt something was wrong, it was going too smoothly!
"Ha, the battalion commander is a man, brave and resourceful, he is really powerful."
Taking advantage of the opportunity to relax, Madison galloped forward and gave Gray Linte a modest compliment.
I don't object to conspiracy, but the opposite side is Fusac's army, and their royal family is the Einhorn family. How can there be no "conspirators" in a large army?
wrong!
Gray Linte's expression suddenly condensed, and regardless of Madison's compliment, he ordered sternly:
"Go around 15 miles deeper."
He was not sure if there would be "traps" if he continued on this road, but he would not underestimate the enemy's wisdom.
The atmosphere in the team suddenly became tense. Gray Linte did not explain, but smart people like Dorigo were the first to taste it.
The past 30 miles have been really smooth.
"Got the order!"
Although Madison was puzzled, he could not disobey the order, not to mention that he now fully believed in Gray Lint's military wisdom.
…………
Apart from Brother Zhaluo, Evlav, who was tall and strong and had only one right arm, looked at the two routes to the west and south, and narrowed his eyes slightly:
"The prey is coming soon."
According to the itinerary, they should have passed the city in front of them long ago. Since there is no signal yet, it seems that they are coming from behind.
Naturally, Gray Linte and his cavalry arrived outside the city of Charogo with smooth sailing. The terrain of Charogo was low-lying, so they happened to be parked on a mountain, ready to swoop into the enemy camp at any time.
"I just don't know if the enemies outside the city have guessed our marching route?"
To be continued...
