Chapter 739 Arrangement
To be honest, the human race did not expect that the troops of the undead would declare war, nor did they expect that the troops of the undead would be so fierce. They had already occupied 4 cities in one afternoon, although they were all small cities, and their personnel had already evacuated. Yes, but this slap in the face is still unacceptable to many human races. . .
The dispatch order of the Second Legion was sent out immediately, and the troops of the human race were temporarily gathered in the border city of Degala. The city's combat strength is about 1500 troops, which should be able to defend for a while.
Of course, the quality of this group of defensive troops is not very high, that is, they can only defend for a while by relying on the strong city walls. The marching time of the day, this time should be able to hold on.
At this time, Li Huailin had already arrived at the camp of the Second Army Corps and presided over the ceremony of the expedition.
"Marshal, even if it is an urgent march, it will take at least four days for the troops to reach the battlefield." McCann here is reporting the situation to Li Huailin, "After the urgent march is over, the troops need to rest for at least one day before they can fight, so the undead will be dealt with in a week Is the family a bit too exaggerated?"
"Damn it, are you messing with me on the first day? What do I eat if I can't kill the undead for a week? Why don't you command the troops?" Li Huailin said.
"Uh, Marshal, I definitely didn't mean that." McCann said, "It's just that I think we should fight steadily in this battle. For the troops invaded by the undead tribe, Ryuk's troops are about 16,000 people, and Sudeis's troops are about 16,000. There are about 7,000 troops, and the total number is about 23,000. Our troops have more than 95,000, so if we fight steadily, it should not be difficult for us to win, but if we rush to win, we may be caught by the enemy."
"Hey, I understand." Li Huailin nodded. "What you said is very reasonable, but if you don't adopt it, march quickly and get up."
"This..." McCann raised his forehead. Although he was puzzled by this order, he couldn't help it. Who is Li Huailin the marshal, so he could only nod and said, "Yes, marshal."
Standing on the stage, the flag bearer here stood behind Li Huailin with a black awesome battle flag, and the momentum of the Second Legion here was suddenly boosted.
"The miscellaneous fishes of the undead tribe dare to challenge our human empire when they have nothing to do. They are tired of living, don't you think? With our Second Legion here, how can these guys mess with the human empire?" Li Huailin said with a raised hand.
"Fight! Fight! Fight!" A group of soldiers shouted enthusiastically.
"I have already promised Anthony that we will kill the undead within a week, no matter what. You have to face me, so march quickly. We will rush to the battlefield within four days. Do you have any problems?" Li Huailin said.
"No problem! No problem! No problem!" a group of soldiers immediately shouted.
"Okay, let's go." Li Huailin said with a wave of his hand.
The imposing second army set off in the afternoon of the same day, marching directly to the southeast border,
Li Huailin handed everything over to McCann, and then returned to his territory to continue pulling people.
At this time, the king's order to declare war had reached Li Huailin's territory. Everyone already knew about the start of the war, so the subordinate soldiers of the territory had already started to gather and set off. Everyone knew that Li Huailin would definitely take them along.
The newly-appointed knights were even more eager to participate in the battle. Unexpectedly, just after the enfeoffment ceremony, they encountered a war between the undead and the human race, and they were all waiting to go to the battlefield to make their achievements. So when I heard the news, I immediately felt the Duke's Mansion, waiting for Li Huailin's order to come back and go out.
Sure enough, Li Huailin returned to the fief after not waiting long, and everyone was already waiting at the gate of the Duke's Mansion.
"Do you know what's going on?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes, my lord, ready to attack at any time." The knight commander Reg stepped forward and replied.
"Don't worry, don't worry." Li Huailin said, "It will take four days for the troops of the Second Army to reach the front line."
"My lord, our troops are all cavalry, so we can move faster. We can reach the front line in three days." Reg said immediately.
"Damn it, why are you rushing there so quickly?" Li Huailin said, "You didn't send him to death like this. You think you rushed over in a hurry, and the other party waited for you with ease. Isn't this sending you to death?"
"This... the lord's words are reasonable, then we will march normally, so that we can reach the front line at about the same time as the second army." Reg said here.
"No, no, I've already said, what are you doing so fast?" Li Huailin shook his head and said.
"What does your lord mean?" Reg asked here.
"Let's walk slowly, like walking for more than ten days, and we will almost reach the battlefield." Li Huailin said.
"Ten days?" Reg was stunned. "My lord, didn't you promise to end the battle with His Royal Highness within a week? If we just marched for more than ten days, wouldn't it be too late for the battle?"
"So do you think winning is more important or a week is more important?" Li Huailin asked rhetorically.
"Of course we won." Reg said.
"That's not the end, where are you talking so much nonsense, just listen to me." Li Huailin said, and then asked, "Is there a map?"
"Yes." Reg here immediately called the soldiers next to him to bring the map, and handed it to Li Huailin.
"Keep an eye on the marching route, go here, go here, go here." Li Huailin slowly sketched on the map.
Reg took a look, Li Huailin's marching route is simply wonderful, it is not a straight line to the battlefield, but a route that forcibly circles half a circle in the territory of the empire, and there are empires everywhere. big city.
"My lord, this route..." Reg here couldn't understand Li Huailin's meaning at all.
"Just follow this route, walk slowly, and walk for about ten days. Every day, the camping place must be near the city, and then you must report the camping place to me every day." Li Huailin said, "There is a problem ?"
"No... no problem." Reg here has no idea what Li Huailin's plan is, but since it is an order, Reg can only accept it.
"Gert." Li Huailin said to the Minister of the Interior, Geert.
"Yes, my lord." Gert stepped forward and said.
"Immediately raise all kinds of transportation troops, the more the better, I need a lot of transportation tools." Li Huailin said.
"Transport troops?" Gert asked here, "What do you need to transport, sir?"
"Oh, I just need troops, I don't need to transport anything, just leave it empty." Li Huailin said.
"Empty?" Gert here didn't understand what Li Huailin meant.
"Well, all the transportation troops and my private soldiers will go straight to the battlefield to gather with the troops of the Second Army. The speed does not need to be too fast. It will take about a week to arrive at the battlefield." Li Huailin said.
"Okay, my lord, I will take care of this right away." Gert nodded and said.
"I will recruit a 1,000-man infantry team to set off with the transport team." Li Huailin's current private army is 2,000 light cavalry and 2,000 heavy cavalry, and there are still 1,000 vacancies left. Li Huailin decided to recruit a 1,000-man army first The infantry team is an emergency response, and the recruitment time is one day, so it is no problem to set off tomorrow, "This army... Ruiji, you take it."
"Yes, my lord." St. Regis on this side nodded and said. St. Regis on this side was quite excited about being able to lead an army, and replied very happily.
"By the way, Oliveira, Anthony seems to want to ask us to buy food and grass. Look at the situation and sell the excess to him at the original price. Don't worry about the funding problem. I will solve it soon." Li Huailin said after thinking about it.
"Yes, my lord." Oliveira nodded.
"Also, tell that goblin merchant what's his name..." Li Huailin would forget his name for a while.
"It's called Inter, my lord." Oliveira reminded immediately.
"Yes, it's that Internet, let him come back immediately, I have something to look for him." Li Huailin said.
"Okay, my lord, I will notify Inte immediately." Oliveira said.
"Okay, that's it. Do you have any questions?" Li Huailin clapped his hands to indicate that his task had been assigned, so he asked.
Everyone looked at each other. There were a lot of questions. No one could see what Li Huailin wanted to do. They didn't know where to start asking.
"Okay, since everyone has no problem, then follow my instructions." Li Huailin said.
"Yes, Lord Lord." I really don't know what's going on, and this group of people can only follow Li Huailin's instructions.
After setting up all the missions, Li Huailin recruited 1,000 spearmen on Reg's side. This army does not need to go out to fight, so there is no requirement. However, from the perspective of obedience, Li Huailin still recruited a team of elite spearmen Soldiers, anyway, there are a lot of reputation points, and they can't be used up for the time being. This army is only for emergency use, and it may be disbanded when it comes back.
After dealing with all the things here, Li Huailin is also temporarily free. He will not go there until the second army arrives on the battlefield four days later. Now, while there is still a little time, Li Huailin will finish all the things here first. For example, it's time to hand in the alchemist Ed's mission here, and Ed has been waiting in the mountains alone for a long time. (To be continued..
