strategic showdown

Known as the Pearl of Hildria, the Tower of Eternity stands in the center of the holy city of Ulthuan. Its name comes from the fact that the top of the Tower of Eternity always shines with a holy light that lasts forever.

The elves of the past built an elegant and beautiful Memorial Square around the Tower of Eternity. Today, there are two wonders standing on the edge of the square, one is the towering Saint-Avignon Cathedral, and facing it in the distance is the original Cathedral. The eternal court of the Rey elves,

With the Holy See's long-term transformation of Ulthuan, this majestic and glorious building has also welcomed a new guest-the Holy War Command Department.

The bishops of the Cardinal Council had already gathered here. When they saw the arrival of the Pope and Fang Wensi, they all saluted. Then everyone followed Agamemnon, the Senate President of the Holy War Command Department, to a huge war sandbox conference table. Fang Wensi was dazzled by the holy city of Ulthuan and various war games on the sandbox.

"Cornings-Shuangyue once served as the commander-in-chief of the Serui Northern Army and had experience in fighting the Northrenland army. After unanimous approval by the command department, Councilor Cornings will explain to you the detailed strategy of this battle in real time." ,

President Agamemnon bowed to the Pope and handed the command staff to the female elf beside him.

Everyone looked at the female elf who took over the command scepter, but facing the questioning and curious eyes, Cornings puffed up his chest proudly. She is delicate yet heroic, but the scars on the side of her face are too painful. This is Fang Wensi's evaluation of her.

"Consultant Konings, please start," Menoglio said calmly and calmly as always.

Konings did not hesitate at all, and stated to everyone in a clear and smooth tone: "Let me state in advance that since the Kingdom of Northernland has been fighting against the Tikhtala Empire all year round, their military system is also closer to that of the Tikhtala Empire. A collective authoritarian military system. In this military system, the generals who are dominated by the marshal generally have absolute leadership over the army. It is the bounden duty of the military to obey the unified orders of the marshal. Therefore, we cannot divide and attack them like traditional feudal lords. The response strategy is formulated based on the opponent's marshal's layout, and this time the enemy marshal is Carl Levis, known as the Thunder Warrior."

Menoglio waved his hand, suppressing the questioning voices of the cardinals, and asked with a smile: "Levis? I heard that the Elf Northern Army you led was defeated by him. What do you think of him?"

Regardless of the Cardinals' comments about the defeated general, Konings replied resolutely: "Carl Reeves is extremely conceited and will not easily listen to other people's suggestions. Before every battle, he will formulate a careful strategy. Then he would strictly follow the strategy and implement it step by step on the battlefield, being rigid and unwilling to change. However, forgive me for being rude, he is indeed a military genius who knows everything."

"Well, please continue," Menoglio nodded.

Konings then pointed the command scepter to the west side of the sand table, "Your Majesty, please see, Levis has concentrated all his troops 2,500 feet outside the city wall on the west side of Ulthuan, and recruited 20,000 sword infantry from Northernland. There are 7,000 people in the frontal army. After many deductions by the command department, the result is that the frontal army will use the siege ladder to quickly climb the west side of the city wall at the beginning of the war.

On the right wing of the front army, Levis retained a reserve army of 5,000 men to supplement the front army. And Levis placed all catapults, ballistas and long-range troops on the left flank of the front army near the Serui Woodland. I think the enemy placed all long-range troops near the north side of Ulthuan in order to lure our army out of the city. to attack,

The first plan is to ambush a large number of soldiers in the forest. Once our army leaves the city to attack their long-range troops, the ambush will drag our army and the front army to form a double team, thereby surrounding and killing our troops leaving the city. However, based on the known force layout, Levi's must have only a small group of ambushes in the forest, so option one can be ruled out.

The second option is that once our army attacks, the long-range troops will retreat into the forest, and our army will take this opportunity to destroy the enemy's long-range siege equipment."

The chill and blood filled the dawn air. Levis looked at the majestic city wall in the distance and couldn't help but smile proudly. Recalling his interlocking siege strategy, he was looking forward to how the other side would react.

"Behind the front army, there is a central army composed of three thousand people, including light-armored axe-wielding cavalry and northern elite raider banners, responsible for protecting the General Guards and the Nagar Mage Regiment where Karl Reeves is located.

According to the report, there are less than a hundred members of the Nagar Mage Association. The command department believes that the Mage Group will follow the Chinese army and attack the inner city after the outer city of Ulthuan is lost.

The strange thing is... Levis has assembled his troops very early, but has yet to attack." Konings pointed at the enemy array lined up on the sand table that was longer than the city wall of Ulthuan. , said doubtfully.

"Is Master Nagar ready?" Levis looked back at the mage camp behind and said to the adjutant beside him,

"Marshal Qi, the Mage Association is ready and waiting for attack instructions at any time. But I don't understand. The Mage Group is the first to take action. Although it is only a miniature forbidden spell, will this expose our strength prematurely?"

Levis angrily yelled at his adjutant: "I don't need your guidance in fighting", then he got on his horse and galloped away to the front army.

"He wants to shock us," Menoglio looked at the handsome chess piece representing Levi's with a vague expression.

Levis galloped to the front of the battle, reined in his horse, and shouted loudly: "Soldiers, have you seen the city wall in the distance? It is blocking the progress of the kingdom. Your mission now is to climb it and conquer it. it, or even destroy it",

A fireball as dazzling as the sun passed from the mage camp, past the dense array of thousands of people, and hit the middle of the city wall, marking the beginning of the dispute.

Levis rode his horse and raised his spear, pointing straight ahead: "Forward troops attack",

"Conquer, conquer." The war cries of the Northrenland army resounded through the sky, and the marching troops rushed toward the peaceful Ulthuan as the earth shook.

"How to deal with the enemy's long-range troops?" Fang Wensi walked around the giant sand table many times and expressed his doubts.

"Report to His Highness the Holy Son that the enemy has placed all long-range troops on the undefended flanks away from the main force in an obvious decoy attempt. The command department finally decided to send 700 elite cavalry for assault and interference." Konings used his hand to 's command scepter points to the city gate on the north side of Ulthuan. Isn't that just a death squad? Fang Wensi complained in her heart.

"Holy City of Ulthuan, North Gate"

"Remember, the first step is to form a diamond formation to quickly break through the enemy's defense line; the second step is to use the fairy fire in your hand to fiercely attack the enemy's siege equipment."

"Knight Commander, what should I do if I miss the throw?" a knight shouted, causing bursts of laughter from all around.

The tall and strong man known as the Knight Commander was not angry. Instead, he replied jokingly: "Then dismount and cut down the trebuchet, and then retreat."

Then there was a burst of laughter from all the knights, and the person who just asked the question scratched his head in embarrassment.

"The third step, I hope to see you all come back alive," the knight commander said as he got on his horse, raised his sword high and shouted,

"Open the city gate, Knights of Hildria, attack",

"Knights of Hildria, the leader of the army is Luke, right?" The Pope moved to one side of the sand table and looked at the model of the gryphon flag at the north gate. Konings nodded slightly in response. ,

The thousand-meter-long rhombus array of the Knights of Hildria drew an elegant arc from the northern road of Ulthuan, like a sharp sword stabbing the enemy formation on the west side, while it was tilting the angry stone throws wantonly. Behind the aircraft, long, black and intimidating pipes stretched out from the edge of Serui Woodland, and the silence was terrifying.

Looking at the cavalry rushing from the left wing, Levis couldn't help but sneered, "General Ha Jin, lead the Chinese army's flank to assist the long-range troops in encircling and killing this cavalry group."

"I heard that the Kingdom of Northernland suffered a lot when it first fought against the Tichtara Empire." Menoglio looked at Konings.

"Yes, it is said that the Tikhtara Empire possesses a very lethal short-range weapon of destruction. However, all the counselors in the command department unanimously believe that this is just a rumor used by the Northernlanders to confuse the public." Although Ning Si was slightly surprised by the Pope's question, he still answered meticulously,

Menoglio stared at Serei Woodland on the sand table for a long time, chuckled, and said seriously to Konings: "Now, give Luke new instructions."

After hearing this, Konings's face changed greatly, and he immediately knelt down on one knee: "This subordinate is guilty..."
