Chapter 487 Deployment of Fortress Offensive and Defensive War

"Appreciate further details."

Looking at Lei Xiao's indifferent expression, Bai Lao said curiously.

"As we have discussed just now, there are three key points in this battle."

Lei Xiao, who was standing on the other side of the giant sand table, looked brightly and said loudly, "The first point is about command."

"Currently, General Bai's injuries have recovered a lot, enough to regain the command of the commander. Although the two lieutenants are no longer there, with General Bert and General Jubai on top, this has been completely resolved."

Having said this, Lei Xiao's dark eyes moved and landed on Ariel again, and continued: "The second point is the problem of low morale, but since Princess Ariel, who is a member of the royal family, is willing to stand up , and fight side by side with the soldiers of the fortress, presumably this problem will be solved."

"Your Majesty is right!"

I saw a middle-aged Leng Yan commander next to the old man, first cast a look of admiration at Ariel, and then cheered up: "It is my great honor to advance and retreat with Your Highness the Princess! "

Seeing the excited appearance of the middle-aged commander, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.

At my own suggestion, when I got to know the two commanders of the Lengyan Army just now, Ariel introduced herself as a princess guest invited by the royal family.

In this way, it will undoubtedly be able to cover up his identity as a lord of another world to the maximum extent, and it also coincides with his identity as a powerful member of the Lengyan royal family that he revealed in front of the mysterious organization before.

"It is conceivable that after this battle, whether it is the Holy Night Kingdom or the powerhouses of the mysterious organization, the main focus will undoubtedly be shifted to the Lengyan royal family."

"And I can use this time to further secretly implement the plan to control the entire eastern region of Lengyan, and rapidly expand my power."

"After all, it is too late to subdue Ariel. With Ariel's assistance, it will be a piece of cake for some vacillating neutral city lords to surrender."

Thinking of this in his heart, Lei Xiao frowned slightly again.

Of course, the biggest problem among them is that it will undoubtedly arouse the vigilance of the three princes in the capital.

However, after receiving information from the other party, analyzing the information, going further to the border battlefield to confirm the information, and then associating with Kongqing Town and his own identity, and then reacting accordingly, I am afraid that his power has already changed from what it used to be. Confront the opponent head-on.

What's more, at this stage, the three opponents are still fighting non-stop in the capital, which will greatly reduce this efficiency.

"Taking a ten thousand step back, even if the situation develops to the worst and the three princes unite to get rid of Ariel first, I still have ten thousand ways to make each other start fighting again."

Lei Xiao's brows relaxed again, and he continued to think.

"All in all, the most important thing at this stage is to use this battle to greatly increase Ariel's reputation, and lay a solid foundation for controlling the entire eastern region of Lengyan."

"It can be imagined that under the leadership and encouragement of Leng Yan's fifth princess, Ariel, the soldiers of Leng Yan's army fought bravely to be the first, and finally repelled the invading enemies that were several times their own, and protected the Leng Yan Kingdom. There is no better publicity than that."

Lei Xiao took a deep breath slowly, and said solemnly in his heart: "At present, there are only 10,000 defenders in the mountain fortress. Facing the 80,000 Holy Night Army soldiers approaching the city, the pressure is still very huge."

"Under the situation that the reinforcements are not in place for a long time, the soldiers here will lose one if they consume one. The opponent must be repelled at the minimum cost, which is enough to ensure stability for a period of time in the future."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao shifted his eyes and refocused on Ariel's delicate cheeks, nodded and said: "In terms of improving morale, Her Royal Highness needs to do more than that."

Lei Xiao looked directly into Ariel's starry eyes, and continued, "Before the battle, Her Royal Highness needs to stand on the general platform in person to cheer the soldiers on."

"Don't worry, I will try my best to do my best."

Ariel nodded heavily, her fair face was full of determination.

"Then please trouble Her Majesty the Princess."

Lei Xiao nodded in satisfaction, his eyes fell on the old general in white heavy armor, he smiled and said, "Old General Bai, with regard to the first two key matters, is there anything wrong with what I have said?"

"Your Excellency is thoughtful, almost exactly the same as the old man."

Bai Lao first looked at each other with the two commanders of the Lengyan Army, both showed expressions of approval, and then said: "However, I still have two points to add."

Elder Bai looked at Ariel, and continued: "First, Her Royal Highness needs to go to two other fortresses to boost morale besides the mountain fortress, and the morale of the soldiers there is even lower."

"Old General Bai, leave it all to me."

Ariel nodded again without hesitation, her starry eyes were full of awe and said: "These soldiers are all fighting for the Lengyan Kingdom, and as Princess Lengyan, I am naturally obliged to do so."

"The veteran thanked Her Royal Highness for her dedication."

The old man stroked Ariel's chest and saluted, and then said to the two kingdom generals beside Ariel: "Secondly, after the meeting is over, the old man will personally take General Burt and General Jubai into the barracks. Learn more about the situation of the entire legion."

"Don't worry, old general Bai, the two of us will definitely do our best."

Burt and Ju Bai took a step forward at the same time, saying in unison.

"With the support and auxiliary command of the two generals of the kingdom, the old man is like a tiger with wings added."

Seeing that Bai Lao's wrinkled face was full of confidence, he nodded excitedly.

Immediately, Bai Lao looked at Lei Xiao again, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, please give me your advice on the most important third point, which is the most important one."

Facing Lei Xiao, who had the loyalty of two powerhouses of Tier 5, Bai Lao naturally would not neglect him in the slightest.

"Old General Bai has won the award, so it's not worth teaching me. I'm just expressing some humble opinions. If there are any deficiencies, please correct me in time."

Lei Xiao smiled faintly, picked up a slender baton, and pointed to five places on the giant sand table.

In order, they are the urn city of the mountain fortress, two small fortresses on the left and right halfway up the mountain, the huge depression directly in front of the mountain fortress, and the base camp of the Holy Night Army located among the distant mountains.

"First of all, regarding the role of the fortress Urn City, it is naturally the first step of the plan. Let in the first batch of Holy Night Army who tried to occupy here, and then catch the turtle in the urn."

Lei Xiao put the baton back on the urn in the front half of the fortress, raised his eyebrows and said, "If my predictions are correct, the first batch of troops from the Holy Night Army to enter the fortress must be an elite royal army."

"Your Excellency is right. Only by doing so can the situation in the fortress be stabilized as soon as possible."

Bai Lao nodded in agreement and said affirmatively: "As long as we can quickly eat up this elite army, it will undoubtedly be a blow to the Holy Night Army."

I saw Mr. Bai stroking his gray beard lightly, while smiling confidently: "For the old man's soldiers, it is not difficult to close the door and beat the dog, and it will make the other party shit out of it."

"In this way, the enemy is left with two elite legions and five miscellaneous legions."

Lei Xiao smiled and nodded, and continued to analyze: "After the vanguard army is trapped, the opponent will step up the attack on the mountain fortress without knowing why, trying to capture here in one fell swoop while we are closed and distracted by beating dogs. And rescue the trapped vanguard."

"And in order to prevent the two fortresses on the mountainside from being reinforced, the enemy will at least divide up two miscellaneous legions to guard the flanks of the large army."

Having said that, Lei Xiao pointed at the other two fortresses with his baton respectively, and then said: "Therefore, the second step of the plan is to keep the two small fortresses standing still at least in the early and mid-term of the battle. It mainly plays the role of containing the holy night army and reducing the pressure on the mountain fortress."

"A very reasonable arrangement. In the later stages of the battle, when the enemy's edge is gone and the army's morale is unstable, and then use the terrain to charge in one fell swoop, it will definitely deal a heavy blow to the Holy Night Army."

Bai Lao nodded his head ponderously, and added.

"In other words, the main enemies facing the mountain fortress will be two elite legions and three miscellaneous legions."

The baton in Lei Xiao's hand moved and landed on the natural depression directly in front of the fortress. He nodded and said, "And this special depression will undoubtedly further divide these five legions."

"Your Excellency is right. According to the Red Devil's cautious temperament, he will definitely not deploy his army in such a very unfavorable terrain as a depression."

Bai Lao looked at the depression on the sand table that could almost accommodate a legion, nodded slightly and said: "If the old man does not expect, the Red Devils should divide the remaining five legions into three parts: the front army, the middle army and the rear. .”

"The third step in the plan is naturally that we are condescending and attacking the opponent's former army with all our strength."

Lei Xiao smiled lightly, and while carefully staring at the sand table in front of him, he continued: "Because of this depression, the opponent's front army will inevitably be separated from the central army and rear guard, so we can concentrate our efforts to annihilate them first."

"But……"

Hearing what Lei Xiao said, a middle-aged commander suddenly showed a hint of hesitation on his face, and said: "The opponent's army before the siege must have gathered the most elite long-range strike troops and various defensive magic arrays. support."

"Although our side is condescending and has the blessing of a large buffer magic circle and the fortress's magic cannon, the firepower is still at a disadvantage. At most, we can only compete with the opponent evenly."

The middle-aged commander sighed helplessly, shook his head and said: "It is obviously impossible to completely annihilate the opponent."

"That's right, the long-range strike force in the fortress has only one magician brigade and two archer brigades, while the second-tier elite forces have two squadrons each."

The wrinkles on Bai Lao's face seemed to be a little deeper, and he added: "In addition to the limited troops that can be accommodated by the front wall of the fortress, at most one heavy infantry brigade responsible for defending against arrows can be placed down, and the fortress wall to Between the depressions in front, at least two legions of enemy soldiers can be accommodated."

"This means that, except for the defensive troops, the enemy's long-range forces will be at least nine to twelve brigades, three or four times stronger than ours. Among them, those who can use powerful projectile magic There will never be a small number of elite magicians, let alone a large number of magic cannon troops."

After finishing speaking, Bai Lao and the other two middle-aged commanders couldn't help sighing softly, with helpless expressions on their faces.

"That is to say, as long as the problem of insufficient firepower can be solved?"

The smile on Lei Xiao's face grew stronger, and he wrote lightly.

"Is there something you can do?"

The eyes of Bai Lao and the other two middle-aged commanders brightened, and they looked over together.

"Old General Bai, how many magic cannons are there in the fortress?"

Lei Xiao waved his hand slightly, signaling the three of them not to worry, and continued smiling.

"The old man has already checked it just now. There are only 20 magic cannons of each series, including 10 second-tier guns and 10 first-tier guns."

Bai Lao's old face was full of solemnity, and he replied: "Originally, there were 50 magic cannons in the warehouse as a hole card, but when I checked just now, I found that they had already been secretly emptied by that guy Aogu."

Having said that, Bai Lao shook his head helplessly.

You must know that due to the rarity of manufacturing materials, the cost of magic guns is extremely expensive.

A Tier 1 magic cannon with good materials can easily reach the six-figure Golden Dragon, and an ordinary Tier 2 magic cannon even breaks through the seven figures.

Therefore, the loss of 50 magic cannons is undoubtedly an extremely huge loss.

"The old general doesn't have to feel sad."

Lei Xiao looked at the regretful expression on Bai Lao's face, and said surprisingly: "What if I personally can provide three to four hundred second-order magic cannons?"

Lei Xiao clearly understood that through his upgrade this morning and previous accumulation.

Even though there are two hundred second-tier fire-system magic cannons deployed in the territory.

But I still have 440 Tier 2 fire-type magic cannons, 75 Tier 2 space magic cannons, and 6 Tier 3 fire-type magic cannons on my body, so taking these out is naturally not a problem.

"What?!"

Hearing Lei Xiao's understatement, not only Bailao and the two commanders of the Lengyan Army, but also Ariel, Bert and Jubai, who had never been to the territory, showed a look of disbelief .

You know, such a huge amount, I am afraid that only the royal family, or a few top aristocratic families try their best to get it out!

"As expected of a terrifying figure with the allegiance of two powerhouses of Tier 5."

While Bai Lao was making huge waves in his heart, he was full of thoughts.

Fortunately, the indifferent young man in front of him was brought by Princess Ariel, otherwise this mountain fortress might have already changed hands.

Looking at the stunned expressions of the crowd, Lei Xiao added with a smile: "At the same time, I will provide a corresponding amount of magic light crystals to power the magic cannon, without taking up the existing magic power."

Hearing what Lei Xiao said, the dumbfounded expressions of Bai Lao and other commanders soon changed to uncontrollable surprise.

With such a heavy-duty firepower cluster, the long-range output power of both the enemy and the enemy will undoubtedly be completely reversed!

And just like what Your Excellency Ke Qing said just now, the elimination of the two holy night legions in front of the depression is naturally no longer a dream!

"The next thing we have to face is the opponent's three legions."

Lei Xiao looked at the excited crowd in front of him, smiled lightly, and dropped his baton on the other side of the giant sand table, where the Holy Night Army's headquarters was.
