Inside the simple battalion commander, a bearded general was observing a map that looked extremely simple.
On this map, there is only one circle representing the city of Sousse, and there are several scrawled peaks that roughly represent the surrounding terrain.
The surrounding environment is actually not too complicated. As a general of the Panshi Empire, he is also familiar with the surrounding terrain, but he still has not figured out how the city of Sous was lost.
In the city of Sousse, the Panshi Empire had arranged thousands of soldiers for defense in advance, and also stationed 3,000 heavy cavalry as backup.
It stands to reason that if the opponent cannot rush into the city of Sous in a short time, those heavy cavalry may threaten the opponent from the side and make the opponent suspend the siege.
What's more, because the war alarm has sounded early, the strength of Sous City has increased to nearly 13,000 people! Not only are there more than 6,000 troops stationed in the city, but there are also two large battalions in the east and west outside the city, each with an army of more than 3,000 stationed.
One city, three large camps, and four locations forming horns. Even if the opponent has an army of 30,000, they may not be able to capture the city of Soss within ten days.
But the reality is cruel. It has just been confirmed that Sous City has been lost. The speed of the loss is so fast that even the 3,000 heavy cavalry stationed behind Sous City have not had time to participate in the battle!
At this time, a young man in golden armor stretched out his hand to open the curtain on the tent, stepped into the tent, sat down on the simple wooden stool, grabbed the wooden water cup on the table, and slammed I took a sip.
Swallowing the white water in his mouth, the young man in golden armor said: "Master Luman surrendered to the enemy, and the supplies in Sous City seem to have fallen into the enemy's hands... Our army is short of food, and the situation is already very critical."
In the Panshi Empire, only the royal family can wear golden armor, and the status of the young man in front of him is naturally extraordinary.
The general who had been observing the map and constructing the nearby terrain in his mind turned his head, looked at the young man, and defended his colleagues: "City Lord Luman is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, how could he join the enemy? ? Is the information wrong?"
Luman has worked with him for many years, and he is a calm general who values honor very much. Even in the face of failure, he is unlikely to surrender directly.
The young man in golden armor held his water glass, and seemed unwilling to believe the facts in front of him, but he still said: "There are too many defeated soldiers,
Someone saw with their own eyes that Lord Luman knelt in front of an old man and handed over his sword. "
"Seeing it with my own eyes? Really... What we can do now is to recapture the city of Sousse as soon as possible, and regain control of the initiative in this war." Since there are testimonies from soldiers, it is likely that things cannot be wrong. So the bearded general no longer explained anything to Lu Man, but turned the topic to the current battle situation.
This bearded man is the commander-in-chief of the front line of the Panshi Empire, and the old general Fokker who sits in the main force.
As the most experienced general in the empire, he is leading the most effective army in the entire empire at this moment.
In addition to the assembled 70,000 elite infantry, he also brought 10,000 cavalry to defend the imperial capital, which can be regarded as a sufficient army.
Originally, if Lu Man's 10,000 troops were gathered together, together with other troops assembled nearby, the Rock Empire would have about 100,000 troops ready to launch a tentative attack on the area where the gods descended in the Storm Empire.
Unfortunately, the plan did not change quickly, the city of South changed hands, Luman's army was defeated, and now Fokker can only fight alone.
"The problem is more than that! Things are far more complicated than we thought." The young man in golden armor put down his water glass and said to Fokker: "Basically, the soldiers who retreated are unwilling to fight anymore. They said that the other side There are monsters, there are gods, and they don't want to be disrespectful to the gods."
"Form these defeated soldiers into a separate team and let them retreat to the rear of the army to rest for a while..." Fogg thought for a while, and then gave his own decision.
But the young man in the golden armor obviously didn't agree with this decision. So he said: "General... Is this the way to let these timid soldiers go to the rear? This will affect the morale of our army..."
Fogg shook his head and said, "There's no other way. They don't have the courage and confidence to fight anymore. It's not a good choice for them to die."
He had also personally visited the defeated soldiers before. Although the troops stationed near the city of Soss had not lost as much as they had imagined, their spirits had completely collapsed.
There is no way, when a mortal faces a unit like the Dragon Knight, his courage is devastated, and it is really rare that he can continue to fight.
"But! General! According to the military law, these defeated soldiers are going to attack at the forefront and consume the opponent's arrows to make atonement..." The young man in the golden armor couldn't bear it, but also insisted on gritted his teeth and said.
"It's different this time... Your Highness the First Prince." Fogg shook his head, rejecting the suggestion of the First Prince who joined the army this time.
"Why is it different?" The eldest prince in golden armor asked while heaving a sigh of relief.
"Your Highness, have you ever seen such a large-scale defeat of a well-trained imperial border army?" The old general Fokker walked up to the First Prince with his hands behind his back and asked.
Hearing this question, the eldest prince was obviously stunned for a moment, and subconsciously opened his mouth, but he could only utter half of the words: "This..."
"I am fifty-three years old this year, and I have been in the army for thirty-five years. I know my soldiers. They are rock-solid good men. If it is not an accident, they will not give up their feet. The country." The old general Fokker continued without waiting for the eldest prince to finish speaking.
While talking, he stretched out his hand and pressed it on the shoulder of the eldest prince: "So, I think it's better to go and see what happened! We have the advantage in the number of cavalry, and this battle is okay. Keep fighting!"
After he finished speaking, he patted the eldest prince on the shoulder: "Although we lost the first battle, we must be full of hope for victory! Hold on, we can win!"
The First Prince felt the strength on his shoulders, he raised his head, just in time to meet the old general's resolute gaze.
Feeling that firm belief, he was full of hope for victory again: "You are right! General! I think... as long as we hold on, we can win!"
