"The Reus River is here, to the east is Diticon, which is where Viscount Zurich and Viscount St. Gallen are now stationed; to the west is Warren, the two sons of the Grand Duke of Switzerland should have just arrived here." In a forest fifty miles south of Warren, Caterano unfolded the map in his hand, and Bai Zhou, Wei and others surrounded him.

"The water surface of this Reus River is not wide, and Warren's section of the water flow is not fast, but it also needs to be ferrying by boat or raft. Of course, if the soldiers do not penetrate armor, they can swim." Frank, who is familiar with the terrain, interjected, "When I came, my father had ordered the ships in this area to not go down the river, and the bridges were all demolished. If the Swiss were to attack now, they would have to mobilize ships from other places. Even if they were prepared in advance, it would take at least a day to wait for those ships to come."

"Young master, if this is the case, I don't think we need to attack Warren anymore. We can directly attack the Zurich while the Swiss crossed the river halfway." After hearing the words of the Italians and the Germans, Menggo felt that this seemed more appropriate. After all, before they came, they thought that when the Western Qin people arrived here, the Swiss had already started attacking Didicon, so they made the decision to attack Warren. Now that the situation has changed, their plan should also change.

"Indeed, I didn't expect that we could reach Warren with the Swiss." Bai Zhou said. It saved at least seven days of travel on the waterway, which led to the Western Qin army now appearing in the south of Warren. At the same time, there was a better way to cut off the Swiss's retreat - half-cross attack.

"Frank, what kind of person is your father?" Bai Zhou thought for a while, and felt that this question was not appropriate, so he changed to a simpler method: "I mean, if the Swiss started crossing the river, your father would choose to still stick to Diticon or rely on the Reus River to defend the river."

After all, if Bai Zhou wants to change his plan, the Germans stationed in Diticon must cooperate on the other side of the river, and the two sides will work together to attack to have the possibility of victory. Otherwise, Bai Zhou will only launch an attack on the west side of the Reus River, while the Germans are still holding on in the castle, and the Western Qin army has little victory rate.

"Well, Count, you don't know that Diticon's city defense facilities have been reinforced several times by my father; and the Reus River is not wide. If the Swiss attack forcibly, it will only take 10 minutes to cross it. The most important thing is that there are many suitable places for crossing this section of the river. My father cannot send people to defend every suitable place." Frank was obviously telling Baizhou that under normal circumstances, his father would definitely choose to stick to Diticon.

After all, it is not a natural chasm of the Yangtze River, and there are only a few places suitable for large-scale landings. The Reus River can almost be called a danger everywhere. The Swiss cannot be so stupid that they choose to cross the river basin with defending.

"Oh, if that's the case, it seems that our plan will not be changed first." Menggo has now roughly understood the situation in the Reus River and found that it is indeed unrealistic to get the German army to cooperate with the action.

"Not necessarily. At most, we cannot kill one blow, but it is still possible to eat a small part of them." Bai Zhou thought for a moment, turned to the Germans and said, "So, Frank, you go back to Diticon first and tell your father that our Western Qin reinforcements have arrived here and are waiting for an opportunity to help you."

"Okay." Frank agreed immediately.

"Hall, send more of your men to reconnaissance and see where the ships on the Swiss river are concentrated and pick some smarter ones." Bai Zhou ordered. As before, Haul's mercenaries looked more like farmers than Italians.

Two days later, in a small woods on the banks of the Reus River

"These Germans knew that we were on the other side of the river, so they chose to hunch their heads." Meng Zhi couldn't help but say after listening to the scout's report.

"It is because of this that the Swiss choose to gather together to cross the river. I was still thinking at the time that if the Swiss crossed the river separately, we might be able to eat some of it." Menggo also said with some regret.

"It's good. We can destroy some of their ships as much as possible while most of the Swiss cross the river. In this way, the Swiss who crossed the river will not be able to come back in a short time." Bai Zhou looked at the soldiers who gradually gathered around him and said to the people around him: "It seems that the Swiss are going to cross the river today. We are still twenty miles away from their crossing point. There is nothing in front of us to cover up our whereabouts. I guess as soon as we come out of this woods, the Swiss scouts will soon discover us. When the scouts return, you will lead the roar first, kill all those who can see, and try to keep our whereabouts hidden."

"Yes! Young Master."

"Haur, arrange two hundred mercenaries to protect the food and grass here. If we find that our attack fails, take away what can be taken away, and burn it on the spot if we cannot take it away."

"Yes, sir."

"Catlano, you are responsible for all the long-range troops, prioritizing attacks on Swiss ships. Crossbowmen shoot people, and archers use fire arrows."

"Yes, sir."

"Mongo, you two are with me. Fiora, uh, you'd better stay here."

"Yes! Young Master."

"Why? Your swordsmanship is not as good as mine, why did you let me stay here?" Fiora was wearing light mail, and her veil was replaced by a helmet covering her face, leaving only a pair of bright eyes.

"Okay, you are in charge of the long-range troops with Caterano." Bai Zhou didn't want her to take risks, but he didn't seem to appreciate it. Fortunately, the long-range troops generally do not participate in frontal battles, and the safety is relatively high.

Fiora still seemed unwilling to stay with the long-range troops, but this time she no longer had the intention to object to Bai Zhou.

"All troops start gathering! Get ready to set off."

On the west side of the Reus River, the Swiss had already begun to cross the river slowly. Since more than 10,000 German troops chose to garrison the fortress, both the Marquis of Alberto and the Earl of Andreas decided to cross the river from the closest place to Diticon. Tens of thousands of people were vast, but compared with the number of people, the Swiss ships were pitifully few, and they could cross two or three thousand people at a time. Including the time of boarding and disembarking, they could basically pass a batch every half hour.

"My dear brother, are you crossing the river with me?" A tall guy with small eyes asked the person next to him with a smile. He was the eldest son of the Swiss Grand Duke, Marquis Alberto.

"Forget it, I'll stay here for the first time to prevent any situation." Earl Andreas is a guy with a low figure but extremely strong appearance.

"Haha, my dear brother, even if there is a problem, he is still on the other side of the river. What will happen here? Don't make excuses for your timidity." Alberto took off his helmet and combed his somewhat messy blonde hair with his hands. He has to admit that his long golden hair is more elegant than a woman.

"I'm timid? What are you kidding? Don't you know that Liechtenstein has been captured? By time, if the troops arrived in time, they would have appeared anywhere beside us." The Earl of Andreas seemed to have a bad temper. However, it was only in front of his brother that his temper was so easy to get worse.

"I know, isn't it just a few thousand alien troops, only a few thousand people. We have 40,000 troops here, my timid brother. Do you think they dare to come?" Alberto smiled and looked at Andreas, "Okay, okay, don't argue with you anymore, let my father know, it's time to be sad again. I'll cross the river first, and you stay here to hold the formation."

"Okay." Andreas obviously didn't want to say anything more to his brother.

East of the Reus River, Diticonne

"Father, the Western Qin people are ready over there. What are you waiting for?" Frank asked an old man, his father, Viscount Zurich.

"It's not that I don't want to send troops. Do you think, even if we give our all, how likely will we win?" Viscount looked at Frank in front of him with a kind face.

"Indeed, our forces are only half of the Swiss. However, we still have a chance to fight out halfway while they cross the river." Frank agreed with the plan of the Western Qin people in his heart, so he was trying hard to persuade his father.

"My child, you know that not everyone listens to me in this Diticonri. Even if you can convince me, do you think they are brave enough in St. Garen?"

"This..." Frank knew the character of Viscount St. Gallen, and was so cautious that a timid guy. It was very difficult to get him to agree to go out of the city to catch the enemy.

"I need to be responsible for the lives of all Germans. As for those aliens, God will bless them." After the Zurich said, he smiled like a compassionate smile.

After uploading this chapter today, my number of words reached 100,000. 100,000 words is a hurdle, I hope I can get through it safely.

It's about to reach a small climax. According to some classmates, the scenes of the battles in the previous few times were not very pleasant. I summarized the reason. It should be that I was not sure about the size problem. I will improve it this time.
