Chapter 641 Deployment Before the War

As the lord said, judging from the current situation.

Although it is still unclear how these two huge opponents will act, on the surface, Kongqing Town, where the Lord Lord and Princess Ariel are located, has indeed become the target of public criticism in this battle.

As for the territory close to Kongqing Town, the degree of danger is self-evident. Once discovered by the opponent, it will only be worse than the former.

And if we forcibly divert the opponent's attention, not only will we expose more strength and suffer greater losses, but it will also imperceptibly illustrate the importance of the territory, which is easy to be self-defeating.

With our troops dispersed, the most direct consequence of doing so can at most only delay the time for the opponent to attack the territory, but it cannot save the territory from danger.

Therefore, using the lord's territory as bait is indeed the most suitable solution at present.

Thinking of this in their hearts, all the subordinates showed a sudden look of enlightenment, and there was a little more admiration in the eyes looking at Lei Xiao.

At the critical moment when the soldiers were pressing down on the border, the lord, as the commander in chief, was still able to maintain such a clear mind. Perhaps this was the biggest reliance of the territory.

Among them, Ariel, in particular, was full of reverence.

It has to be said that under the current situation of the enemy and the flames of war are about to break out everywhere.

There is nothing more reassuring than seeing a calm and calm leader.

And the commanders opposite Ariel also had an expression of admiration that couldn't be restrained.

If they were in this position, they would have already been restless.

Although there is no fifth-order powerhouse in the opponent's camp for the time being.

However, the combat power of more than 15 fifth-order powerhouses in general is enough to completely make up for this gap.

Furthermore, once the mysterious organization shows up, the advantage of our fifth-order powerhouse will immediately disappear.

Just thinking about this crisis situation is enough to make people shudder.

Sensing the fiery gazes cast by the subordinates, Lei Xiao remained calm and composed.

But this is only a superficial phenomenon.

In Lei Xiao's heart, he was already in a state of panic.

At this moment, Lei Xiao, who was in a panic, understood clearly.

The difference from the previous fortress offensive and defensive battles is that this time, the main battlefield will definitely be around the territory, and there is no room for negligence.

In other words, there is no chance of error tolerance.

Once one step is wrong, it is very likely that the whole game will be lost, and then the territory and itself will surely usher in a catastrophe.

You must know that your opponents are not mobs, but high-ranking nobles who have received elite education and stand at the top of power in this area.

That cruel ruling method would not spare even the civilians in his own fiefdom, let alone himself, the alien lord who was regarded as a heretic?

Therefore, in this life-and-death situation, even a victorious general who has experienced many battles cannot be calm.

What's more, before time-traveling, he was just an ordinary migrant worker who was running around for a living every day?

"However, once I show a little cowardice, it will greatly affect the morale of my subordinates."

"Perhaps this is what a leader must bear alone. The other side of this tension must not be revealed."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao, whose hands were already soaked in sweat, started to walk towards the throne at the top again.

Sitting calmly on the throne, Lei Xiao felt himself relax a bit, and then focused his dignified eyes on the subordinates in the lower position again.

"Everyone, now that the combat policy has been determined, it's time for us to make specific operational deployments."

Lei Xiao first took a deep breath full of solemn air, and then said: "Before that, let's estimate the fastest time for the opponent to attack."

"At this stage, neither the eldest prince nor the second prince's forces have yet set out from their bases, and since the frontier cities within the sphere of influence of the two opponents are not very far from Kongqing Town, logistics support is easy."

"The opponent can completely ignore the supply line issue and abandon the luggage for a rapid march. Therefore, the opponent's forward army can reach Kongqing Town within a day and a half at most."

"That is to say, if it is the fastest, tomorrow noon will be the moment when the war begins."

Lei Xiao's more solemn eyes swept over the subordinates one by one, and said solemnly: "The time left for us to prepare is running out."

Hearing Lei Xiao's words, all the subordinates nodded solemnly.

"As for the specific operational deployment before the war, it is very simple, mainly divided into two aspects."

Lei Xiao took the third-tier maid standing by, respectfully handed over the tea, and continued to make arrangements.

"First, based on the combat policy of adapting to all changes, that is, except for the remote Shuiyue City and Fenglong City, each territory must gather the civilians in the surrounding villages as soon as possible to ensure that the population is not affected by the war as much as possible. spread."

"Secondly, from now on, the territory and all the territories will be put on the highest alert. The city will impose a curfew, increase the number of guard posts by at least five times, mobilize all reserve forces, and suspend all trade activities."

Lei Xiao pondered for a while, and then said to the city owner Fanyin on the other side of the conversation: "Auer, especially you, must control the goods and materials in the city, and stop them from leaking out before the end of the war."

"Obey, please rest assured, my lord."

Orr's steady voice came out immediately: "Earlier today, my subordinates have sent troops to blockade the eight large storage areas and airports in Fanyin City. Merchants can go out of the city, but the goods must not go out at all. .”

"very good."

After listening to Fanyin City Lord Auer's report, Lei Xiao first took a sip of steaming black tea, and then said: "In addition, Kongqing Town is the same, if we control these two commercial hubs, our hope of victory will obviously be Add one point."

"Obey! Your lord!"

Lin's sassy voice came through the reading.

"By the way, between Kongqing Town and the Great Prince's forces, there are two towns, Mailan Town and Chijian Town. Needless to say, Chijian Town, which is poor and white, is unlikely to be attacked by the other party at this stage, and it is rich in food. The town of Mailan may be coveted by the enemy."

Lei Xiao put down the teacup in his hand, and thoughtfully said: "Once Mailan Town is attacked, I will personally lead the main force to support it, so don't worry, just raise your alert normally."

Mailan Town is not far from the territory, which is not difficult for Lei Xiao to do.

Taking a step back, even if the territory is attacked during this period, they can quickly return to aid.

"Obey! Thank you very much, Lord Lord!"

Xuan Yue's grateful voice immediately passed into Lei Xiao's ears from the words.

"As for the issue of soldiers taking the initiative to attack when the time is right, you only need to follow the three basic requirements for combat that I mentioned earlier."

"I will also make proper arrangements based on the situation in various places and the real-time dynamics of the war. If necessary, I will send the main subordinates to support."

After speaking, Lei Xiao picked up the teacup again and drank the remaining fragrant tea in one gulp.

"The lord's approach is indeed the most appropriate."

When Lei Xiao finished dispatching all the subordinate territories, Bert's old voice sounded.

I saw this veteran who had experienced many battles, his wrinkled face was full of excitement and he said: "Comprehensive alert before the war is a routine operation for any neutral city. The higher-ups found a clue of our hidden strength!"

"Okay, let's talk about the snow wolves and half-elves guarding the territory."

Nodding to the gray-haired old general next, Lei Xiao went on to say: "Except for the warriors who built the dam, the rest of the Snow Wolf Clan, the old and the young, have temporarily moved to the territory. The Snow Wolf Clan can contend."

"Obey! Your lord!"

The resolute voice of the patriarch Shi Feng came over immediately.

"As for the half-elves in the barrier, there is no need to change it for the time being. As far as I know, except for shamans of special races such as half-orcs, and strong people who master forbidden spells, ordinary human powerhouses cannot forcibly break into the barrier. .”

Lei Xiao, who was sitting on the throne, spoke again.

"Obey! Your lord."

Chuan Gu's old and firm voice immediately came out through the words: "My lord, the Yuebai clan is willing to shed the last drop of blood for my lord and the territory at any time!"

"My lord, our Xueyu clan is the same!"

Shi Feng's fighting voice followed closely behind.

"Understood, I will fight with you until the moment of victory."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly, stood up again from his seat, and encouraged his subordinates: "Everyone, I believe that the courage of each of us will surely be gathered into an invincible sword, and deal a fatal blow to the enemy! Bury it under your feet!"

"Bury your enemies under your feet! Bury your enemies under your feet!"

A uniform voice sounded, and the subordinates at the lower position and the other side of the conversation said with fighting spirit.

Next, Lei Xiao briefly summarized the recent work in the territory.

He also focused on the commanders such as Finley who was in charge of moat drainage, Rogge and Bai Zhi who were in charge of digging trenches.

At the end of the meeting, Lei Xiao specifically asked Xue Ya and Fa Xia to continue working on the alchemy and potion without distraction, and strive to complete the work today.

At this point, it was announced that the meeting was over.

After all the subordinates left, Lei Xiao first came to the equipment warehouse in the territory.

All the equipment replaced by the two magician squadrons, five longbowman squadrons, and three spear warrior squadrons that had not been upgraded before were all upgraded.

In the end, 50,000 sets of corresponding Tier 2 equipment, 450 sets of Tier 3 equipment, and 50 sets of Tier 4 equipment were obtained.

"Not bad."

After all the upgrades were completed, Lei Xiao nodded in satisfaction.

After that, Lei Xiao first replenished the spare equipment in the warehouse, and then, accompanied by the logistics commander Ward, checked the number of arrows.

Currently, there are two types of arrows in the territory. In addition to more than 100,000 ordinary arrows, there are more than 80,000 magic arrows, which are obviously enough.

And in each territory, Lei Xiao has already strengthened the production of arrows, so there is no need to worry about it.

As for food and other materials, after deliberate replenishment all the time, except for the two warehouses that are already full.

The stock in Lei Xiao's storage wooden box is enough to feed the current population of the territory for more than a hundred years, and there is no need to worry about a single cent.

In the end, Lei Xiao left 1,500 third-tier storage rings in the warehouse and ordered Ward to distribute them.

In this way, all direct subordinates in the territory can obviously reach one person, which is convenient for quick change of equipment and storage of personal supplies.

After finishing all this, Lei Xiao ordered Lixia to send the potion produced by the Alchemist Guild of Gelin City yesterday directly to Su Rusumo's territory through private messages and words, and successfully traded it over for an upgrade. .

During this process, Lei Xiao also inquired about Zhuqi's embankment work, and after learning that it would be fully completed today, he assembled all the main forces in front of the city gate on the west side of the territory.

Accompanied by his subordinates, Lei Xiao first went back and forth to Kongqing Town, and upgraded the equipment of the two princess guards as planned.

Then he obtained 10,000 sets of Tier 3 equipment and 100 sets of Tier 4 equipment, and ordered Ariel to give some incentives, and gave them back to the main commanders of the Princess Guards. All members were equipped with Tier 4 equipment to further improve loyalty.

"Our destination this time is the Mountain Fortress."

Beside the grove on the outskirts of Kongqing Town, Lei Xiao looked at the respectful subordinates standing beside him, and said, "The importance of the mountain fortress in this battle is self-evident."

"Not only is it related to whether the Shanjing Principality and our 7,000-man force can successfully enter the battlefield, and then backstab the First Prince's force, but it is also related to whether the 13,000-man garrison force of the First Prince and the Second Prince can be restrained, so that they cannot participate in the war .”

Under the bright sunlight, Lei Xiao nodded to his subordinates, and continued: "Therefore, we must communicate properly with Bai Lao."

"What the lord said is very true."

Ariel with her ponytail took a step forward, bowed and said, "From the current situation and what my subordinates know about Old General Bai, although it is unlikely that he will be subdued directly, it should still be a good idea to let him make concessions." No problem."

"Then our goal has been achieved~lightnovelpub.net~ Lei Xiao smiled lightly, and then said: "Let's go! Target Mountain Fortress! "

After finishing speaking, under Lei Xiao's immediate lead, all the subordinates of the main force turned into phantoms and disappeared in place in an instant.

In the process of speeding, Lei Xiao opened the overview interface of the territory while feeling the oncoming wind, and began to check it.

Under the effects of Qi Condensing Pill and Rose Concentrating Pill, all the soldiers of the 13 elite squadrons in the territory, except the peasant squadron, have reached the second-order peak.

After the Half-Elf Squadron, the Werewolf Warrior Squadron also reached Tier 3.

"My ace squadron is finally born! This will definitely be a trump card in my hand!"

Aside from his joy, Lei Xiao continued to think.

"By the way, there is one more crucial thing."
