How To Wear a Goddess Statue

Chapter 144: debate

Looking at the wall of Seton, you can see the fire of the opposite camp clearly.

Under the bright burning flames, whether it was the alien soldiers rushing to put out the fire, the guards returning to the camp in a chaotic manner, or the witch doctors and generals surrounding the general trying to rescue him, It's just a moving blur of shadows - but that doesn't prevent the defenders from seeing the panic of the enemy.

Does it hurt?"

"That's right, don't act so unwilling."

"His Majesty personally led a night attack and burned the enemy camp. Maybe he also chopped off the head of the leader on the opposite side, and let the barbarians of Sanur go about it themselves!"

The cavalry in the nearby Wangcheng listened to it for a long time, and smiled proudly: "When His Majesty was at the border, he was chasing the Sanur people to fight, and they dared not stand up. So far, it's still the same!"

The original Seton defenders looked at each other and nodded secretly, feeling more confident.

It has to be said that the fact that the Sanur tribe broke through the city of Tigbia in three days made many Solanchian soldiers think before the battle. .

They don't care how much the Sanur broke the border regardless of the cost and how much military force was spent.

I wouldn't care that the defenders of Tigbia were actually facing the enemy unprepared, and before the war started, some troops were dispatched to other cities to pacify the chaos, and the defensive strength was not as strong as imagined.

…These Solan soldiers only know that the fortress as the first line of defense is broken, and the less well-guarded Seton City is even more difficult to resist.

This is actually quite a dangerous state.

But tonight the Surdon garrison saw—

The princess led a team of light cavalry out of the city, raided the enemy camp at night, burned most of the enemy camp, and finally returned to the city safely with the whole team!

Although I haven't counted the number of people, I can see that there is not much loss at a glance. You must know that a night attack has always been a task with extremely high casualties. If you dare to go, you must have the awareness that you can't come back.

In terms of the disparity in the strength of the two sides, it is good luck that half of the night attack team can come back, it is normal if there are no ten, and it is even possible that the entire army will be wiped out.

However, the princess really came back with the light cavalry team.

The morale was unprecedentedly high, and the defenders looked down at the chasing soldiers, hoping that they would not hesitate and attack the city quickly.

When the pursuers had no choice but to retreat, these guys even had a little regret.

—In fact, the situation is not as optimistic as the wall defenders thought.

In the city lord's mansion, the discussion hall is brightly lit.

The generals defending the city and several officials who did not abandon the city before are here. They learned the tragic state of the enemy camp from the mouths of the soldiers who came to report. Doubt.

Unlike the soldiers on the city wall, everyone present knows the current battle situation.

From the very beginning, everyone didn't expect to retreat the enemy through a night attack.

But...

Burn most of the enemy camp? The princess hit the main general with one arrow, and the life and death of the other party are unknown?

Even the most daring generals are unbelievable for a while.

And what they saw next seemed to confirm their suspicions.

Under the eyes of the public, Eleuil walked into the hall, lightly armored and bathed in blood, with a condensed expression. Chilled.

Lena, who came in later, also had a solemn expression, not like a happy look.

A general hurriedly asked: "Your Majesty, how is the situation?"

Eleuil said simply: "The main force of the Sanur army is not here."

"What?!"

Eleuil tilted her head slightly behind her, motioning for Lena to elaborate.

The latter immediately picked up: "The tents at the edge of the Sanur camp are all empty shelves, just making the illusion that someone is living from a distance. The actual garrison is far less than we thought before."

"In addition, judging from the performance of these garrisoned troops, they should not be the most elite of the enemy troops, and their response is too slow."

Everyone looked at each other.

My brain turned fast, and my face changed immediately.

If the main force of Sanor were not on the opposite side, where would they be?

I even made a camouflage in the camp, this... It's not right to think about it.

An official laughed dryly: "But they have nowhere else to go. Maybe the large army is still in Tigbia, and the advance army is stationed opposite, afraid that we will take the initiative to attack and put up a frame to scare us. people?"

"The possibility is very low." Eleuil said coldly, "If the main force is in Tigbia, there is no need to delay for such a few days, a quick battle is more in line with their style. You know Right? Who is Sanur's coach this time?"

"It's the leader of the biggest tribe—no, now it's King Sanur."

"But King Sanur is not in the opposite camp. The leader of the camp is a certain prince. I killed him just now."

Even if there is no time to confirm the result, the princess knows whether her arrow has hit the opponent's vitals, and wants him to live, unless the **** of medicine comes into the world.

Not to mention, the medical skills of the Sanur seem to be very backward, and there are only a few witch doctors in a tribe.

A night raid takes away the enemy prince, which is a good deal.

Not waiting for others to think and be happy, Eleuil continued: "The actual effect may not be as good as it seems, according to reliable information, King Sanur has ten sons, this Possibly the youngest."

Ten, still young...

Joy at a discount, and still amazing.

However, the youngest Prince Sanur is stationed on the opposite side, or the main general. Does this prove from the side that the enemy's focus is really not on Seton City?

Eleuil said no more, walked quickly to the main seat, picked up the map on the desk: "You guys come and see."

Everyone stepped forward and saw that Eleuil's fingertips were standing at the city behind Seton City.

"Your Majesty, do you mean that the Sanor want to bypass Seton and attack Erich?"

Eleuil nodded slightly.

"It's impossible, Surton is surrounded by barren mountains to the north and east, and dense forests to the south, where do the Sanur people go around - they are used to the flat high grasslands, and they can never choose mountains and mountains. Forest march."

"That's right, unless the Sanur people find the guilt and attack Eitrich by bypassing Seton, are they not afraid that we will turn our heads and hit them from behind, in a double attack?"

"There are also provisions and armaments. It is easy for us to cut off the transportation route. What are they going to fight!"

Several generals said that they obviously felt that this idea was not reliable. Even if the person standing in front of them was the princess and the actual ruler of Solan, they still expressed their disapproval. meaning.

Eleuil did not speak in a hurry, glanced at the faces of several people, and said slowly: "As long as you endure the necessary losses, these are not problems for Sanur."

"The Sanur people are very adaptable and may not be used to marching in the mountains and forests, but this is not used to slow down the speed. Food and grass, armaments, the latter may still need careful planning, but food and grass - When did the Sanur worry about this?"

Yes, the Sanur don't worry about food and grass, as long as there are scattered residents and villages near the march, those clothes, utensils, food and even people are the targets of their looting, and people can even be killed Included in the ration range.

For a while, the hall was so silent that you could hear the needle falling, only the voice of the princess continued.

"As for the two-sided attack... You seem to have forgotten that if we do not actively attack the camp but passively defend, our attention will be focused on the opposite camp, and Sanu may not be found in a few days Your main force is circling to the rear."

"The city of Etrich has not experienced war for hundreds of years, and the extra troops have come to Surdun to support, the city defense is insufficient, how long will it take Sanur to lay down the city? how long?"

What's more, there is the country of Kasne.

The division to the south has slowed the flow of news, and Eleuil is still unsure whether there has been an attack on the coast.

If the coastal defense line is not up to par, let Kasneh go north quickly, and join the main force of Sanur, who is good at quick attack and retreat, and is extremely mobile—

"At that time, Seton City will no longer be important. When Sanur is free, it will only be us who will be attacked by both sides."

The princess' fingertips focused heavily on the dots that symbolized Seton City, her strength was so strong that she pressed the map paper into the table top.

Eleuil raised her eyes and looked around at a few people, her eyes glittering.

Everyone looked at the map in silence, someone opened their mouths, seemed to want to say something, and quickly closed them.

After a while, a veteran with the highest military rank among the generals of Surton City shook his head and said solemnly: "But Your Majesty, we have no actual evidence to prove that Sanur would make such a choice, these are just your speculation."

…or guess.

Eleuil: "Please continue."

The veteran sighed: "I guess you want to make the defenders of Seton City divide the majority and go to the edge of the mountain near Etrich City to kill the enemy, but this is too risky ."

"I have not received any news now, I ask you, how do you know if Sanur is marching from the northern barren hills or through the southern jungle, or both?"

"What if we send people to intercept it, but the main force of Sanur is still" behind the hills and attack Seton while the troops are scattered, what should we do?

This is indeed a question that needs to be answered.

Eleuil lowered his eyes, his eyes stayed on the map for a long time, which represented the dots and lines of the mountains and forests, each marked symbol and location.

This time, the surroundings were no longer completely quiet. Several officials exchanged glances, and the generals argued in a low voice.

"North."

Eleuil suddenly whispered.

"You mean?"

"Sanur will go north."

Veteran: "Even if you say so..."

I can't rest assured.

"I will not take most of the defenders of Seton, only cavalry. The role of cavalry in defending the city is not obvious, is it?"

"Even if my inference is wrong, the troops left in the city will be enough to support them."

Facing the veteran's shaky eyes, Eleuil raised the corners of her lips slightly, and the curvature was as pale and sharp as her eyes.

"Although, it must be correct."

The author has something to say:
