Great Single Player of the Heavens
Chapter 581 Captain 0, unfavorable situation
Outside the city of Maribor, Temerian white lily flags fluttered in the wind, forming a continuous camp.あ七^八中文ヤ~⑧~1~(ωωω).7,8z.w.còм
In the center of the camp, in a spacious and luxurious tent, Foltest, dressed in silver chain mail, was standing next to a round table, looking at the map on the table with a frown.
On the map, there are chess pieces of two colors. The black one represents the Nilfgaardian army, and the white one represents the Temerian army.
The black and white chess pieces are all concentrated in the southern region of Temeria, forming a confrontation.
Judging from the number of chess pieces, we can know that the Nilfgaardian side is slightly better than the Temerian side.
This is only part of the Nilfgaardian army.
According to reports from spies, the number of Nilfgaardian troops concentrated in the southern area of Maribor is approximately 20,000, and it is still growing.
The Temerian army deployed around Maribor only had fifteen thousand people.
This was only managed by Foltest by deploying the Blue Guards, the Royal Guards Corps and other directly affiliated units.
Foltest, who was known for his military prowess, also knew very well that once the important southern town of Maribor fell, Vizima and even the entire Temeria would be like a prostitute with legs spread, at the mercy of the southerners.
Therefore, he made a prompt decision, personally integrated a mobile force, quickly moved south, arrived at Maribo, and built a defense line.
At the same time, he also appointed John Natalis, a former police officer, as the commander of the legion, summoning the troops of the vassals to rush to Maribo.
Foltest's strategy is very simple. As long as he blocks the Nilfgaardians' attack and persists until the road is covered with heavy snow, the Nilfgaardians will definitely be defeated by unfavorable factors such as insufficient food and grass supply, too long battle lines, and cold weather. , retreat temporarily.
In this way, Temeria can get a breather. While repairing his troops, it will also give him time to persuade the northern countries to send reinforcements.
However, the reports of more defeats and fewer victories kept coming, giving Foltest a feeling that something bad was about to happen.
The more frequent and more numerous Nilfgaardians move around, the more dangerous Maribor becomes.
He must engage in a battle with the enemy before their forces have fully converged. Otherwise, if this continues, the morale of the soldiers will become lower and lower.
But the problem is that he still hesitates about whether his 15,000 troops can defeat the opponent's more than 20,000 troops.
After all, since the outbreak of the war, the Nilfgaardians have pushed forward all the way and captured Livia, Lyria, and Aedirn one after another, with almost no defeat.
Yes, almost.
Not long ago, in a battle on the Yaruga River bridge, the guerrillas led by Queen Miwe defeated Nilfgar with the help of a bounty hunter who could use magic and a demon hunter. What a partial teacher!

That battle was the only victory won by the northern countries.
Thinking of this, Foltest suddenly felt that his decision to drive away all the warlocks in the country was a bit stupid.
If there are those magicians who use magic, his chances of winning this battle should be much better...
However, as a king, his will is the will of the country.
Now that it’s done,
You won’t regret it!
In an instant, the Temerian king looked solemn, raised his head, and shouted to the guard at the tent door:
"Herald!"
"yes."
"Send another order to Natalis, telling him to arrive at the front line within five days!"
"As you command!"
As the herald left, Vernon Roche, the commander of the "Blue Guards", the special forces directly under the king and the king's confidant, walked into the tent.
"Your Majesty, there is a bounty hunter outside who wants to see you."
"Bounty Hunter?"
. . .
Lu Qi did not stay long in Vizima.
After hiring five mercenary groups of different sizes at a high price, gathering a hundred men, and replenishing food and grass for a week, he led this small force and rushed to Maribo on the front line day and night.
When he arrived near Maribo, he led his mercenary troops and went straight to the military camp to ask for an audience with the king.
After being received and temporarily storing his weapons with the guards, Lu Qi, wearing a black cloak, walked into the king's tent accompanied by Vernon Roche.
Looking at Foltest wearing a crown and silver armor, Lu Qi bowed slightly and then said:
"Your Majesty the King, thank you for your visit."
Frowning and looking Lu Qi up and down, Foltest then said in a deep voice:
"State your name and purpose."
"My name is Alex, and I am a bounty hunter. I came here this time to contribute to Temeria's cause of resisting foreign invasion. To this end, I also organized a team of nearly An army of hundreds..."
"Alex..."
After murmuring Lu Qi's name, and then looking up at Lu Qi's outfit, Foltest suddenly remembered something, and a flash of light flashed across his eyes:
"I have heard about you. You are the bounty hunter who guarded the Yaruga River Bridge with the witcher and covered Queen Meve's smooth retreat, Alex, right?"
Hearing this, Lu Qi was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly, nodded and said:
"I think the person you are talking about is me."
After receiving a positive answer, he looked at Lu Qi with interest, touched his chin, and then asked Foltest:
"I heard from Miwei that not only can you use magic, but you are also extremely brave. You killed southerners on the battlefield and left their armor behind. Is there such a thing?"
"Yes. However, my fellow demon hunters and the Rivia guerrillas who fought alongside me also made great contributions. That is not my fault alone."
"I'm curious, why would a bounty hunter think of joining a war?"
"Actually, I am a bounty hunter from the far east. When I traveled in Temeria, I was sheltered and entertained by the villagers of Zawada Village not far away. Therefore, I don't want those people to They were mercilessly killed by the Nilfgaardians like domestic animals..."
Hearing Lu Qi's answer, Foltest's eyes flashed with approval and appreciation, he slapped the table and shouted loudly:
"Very well, Temeria needs warriors like you who are full of compassion and honor! I now appoint you as a centurion, lead your troops, and set off immediately to the battlefield!"
"You have only one mission: to enter the enemy's rear, attack the Nilfgaardian transport troops, and stop those bastards' scorched-earth strategy! You must not let the Temerian people take anything away from the villains. !”
"As you command!"
. . .
However, the situation of war can never be controlled by one or two people.
Even though Lu Qi led his mercenary troops, they repeatedly attacked Nilfgaard's grain transport troops in the rear, killing enemies several times their own and delaying the enemy's advance.
However, the Temerian army that launched a frontal battle was still defeated by the Nilfgaardian army and could only retreat to Maribor to defend it.
The Temerian side has fallen into an extremely disadvantageous situation...
