King Irmaru didn't know until now that the imperial capital and the Kingdom of Bukerdern formed a coalition.

　　 Prior to this, Elmaru’s knowledge of the Kingdom of Bukden was limited to rumors and the annual Diplomatic Ceremony of the Redcar Empire.

　　 After all, one is in the northwest of the mainland, and the other is in the southernmost part of the mainland by the sea. The two sides almost never overlap.

　　 Therefore, even after seeing the snake-wrapped rose flag representing the royal family of Bookeden and the heraldic flags of the lords of the Kingdom of Bookeden, they did not recognize the identity of these people.

It was the light cavalry sent by King Elmaru that the enemy's coat of arms was a bit weird, not like the style of the empire, and reported it to King Elmaru. After consulting the coat of arms, it was found that it was indeed not an empire. After that, he began to thoroughly investigate the identity of the other party.

　　 Finally, after quietly catching the opponent's soldier who was urinating one night for some torture, it was then realized that the enemy was from the south.

In fact, the original King Irmaru was a little flustered when he heard that the imperial capital had sent a large army to the west to attack him. Although the news of the empire’s weakness has not stopped, this point of the boss empire still brought him a great deal. pressure.

　　Although the current empire can no longer achieve the emperor's command at its peak, there are 100,000 army flags gathered in the imperial capital to fight against the courage, but the army of more than 15,000 people still makes him lack of confidence.

This is also the reason why he chose to enter the castle to stay firmly. Although he also brought more than 13,000 soldiers here, there are only more than 7,000 people who are truly powerful and armored. Most of the rest are some. Serfs who make up the count.

　　 Although these serfs have been tempered by the environment, they are equally fierce, but there is a huge gap between their combat effectiveness and the regular army.

　　 When he heard that the empire could still gather 15,000 troops to conquer himself, he was also very confused.

　　 However, through the investigation of Qingqi during this period, he has already understood the combat effectiveness of this group and the identity of the opponent.

　　 After dispelling the doubts and worries in his heart, King Elmaru began to think about the way to retreat from the enemy.

　　He is very confident now, because he only saw the royal family's flag and a small number of lords' heraldic flags among the opposing coalition forces, not even the flags of the royal lords.

　　 And this is what made him most fortunate. Reiner, his northern army, and the northerners of the empire are capable of fighting. This kind of information is known even to King Elmaru who is thousands of miles away.

　　He knows that there are no avatars under the prestigious reputation, and the Northern Army, which is so praised by the entire empire, will not be weak in combat power anyway.

　　 If they appeared on the battlefield, King Elmaru might return directly to the Kingdom of Bazaran with the looted food and gold and silver treasures.

　　 Now that the enemy's identity is confirmed, King Elmaru's mind has come to life.

　　 After discussing with his vassals for a while but there was no result, King Irmaru returned to the largest room in Innzburg, which was his temporary bedroom.

　　 The leader of the light cavalry he sent out entered the Inzburg through the hanging basket before being prepared to accept the question of King Irmaru.

"Yes, your Majesty, after observing the marks of their carriage for a long time, and observing the ruts but the depth and wear, I have already guessed the number of the opponent's grain transport team and the time of arrival, and after my inspection, I finally confirmed it. Target!"

　　 This hussar knelt on one knee and looked at King Irmaru sincerely, hoping that he could see his own value because of this.

"The enemy's food transport team will come every fifteen days, and the food they transported each time is just enough for them to eat for fifteen days. I took my subordinates to track their direction according to their rut and found them The source of logistics has changed from the lord of the West at the beginning to a person farther away. This is the map I drew at the time!"

　　 The leader of the light cavalry respectfully handed a piece of parchment to King Irmaru, and looked at his king with expectant eyes.

　　 "I don't know who they are, but it is clear that the lords of the West can no longer provide them with more food."

　　 This light cavalry told King Irmaru everything he knew. He knew everything he could say without saying anything. He hoped that his merits would be valued by his King, and then he would reward himself with a title.

After listening to the hussars, King Elmaru nodded in satisfaction, and took a look at the map in the opponent’s hands. After confirming that the map was indeed accurate, King Elmaru stood with satisfaction. stand up.

　　 "You will get the rewards you deserve!" The rewards and punishments are clearly one of the reasons why so many people are willing to serve him allegiance to him in such a cruel situation.

　　 After King Elmaru sent away the light cavalry leader, he looked at the map in his hand very excitedly.

　　 Although the map is very rudimentary, the enemy’s food path and surrounding environment are clearly depicted.

　　 King Elmaru checked the terrain during his self-study, and then recalled the last time the opponent delivered food. He decided to give the enemy a ruthless trick.

　　The practice of losing food is not without, but it is indeed very rare.

The lords on the mainland rarely have wars of more than 10,000 people~lightnovelpub.net~ but the army of less than 10,000 people can prepare their own food in advance and plunder them once they reach their destinations, which is enough. The food munitions of the war are gone.

　　Where has such a food road to support a small army appeared, except for the ancient emperor’s formation of a huge army, and the old emperor Kafet only went to the food road to transport it during the war of unification, it basically disappeared from the mainland.

　　 King Elmaru found out that the enemy had a logistical food channel. This was also what we thought before. The enemy’s inventory is not large. This is a well-known thing. The need to transport food from the rear is all too normal.

　　 After confirming the plan to attack the enemy’s grain road, intensive preparations began in Inzburg.

　　 The knights fed their horses with fine beans, and the candidate to lead the troops in the battle has not yet been determined. The knights and even the vassals are arguing, wanting to get this great opportunity for meritorious service.

Soon, King Elmaru forced but ended the wrangling of the gang, and dispatched the baron who thought he was prudent, led two hundred knights to raid the enemy’s food passage, cut off the enemy’s food supply, in order to relieve Roer. The siege of the fort.

　　Baron Sander, he was one of the early vassals who took refuge in King Elmaru. He was more trusted by him. In addition to his maturity and stability in normal days, he was not radical, so he was appointed as the commander of two hundred knights.

　　 So just like that, Baron Sand led a full two hundred knights to leave Innzburg, bringing the map and the light cavalry to the food road of the imperial capital and the Allied forces of the Kingdom of Bukerdern.
