Otherworldly Castle Era

Vol 4 Chapter 96: Raid plan

   "See the general at the end." Early the next morning, Huo Qubing came outside of Li Jing's military account and happened to ran into Li Jing who was about to come out.

   "It's General Huo, let's talk about it." Li Jing came out just to get out of breath. Seeing that Huo Qubing had something to call for him, Li Jing returned to the military account.

   "Yes, General." Huo Qubing followed Li Jing into the military tent and took his seat in order.

   Li Jing Jindao Dama was sitting in the main seat, and said to him: "The general of the cavalry brigade has seen all the battles yesterday. Under the leadership of General Huo, the cavalry brigade won two games in a row. It was great!"

The two battles of the    cavalry brigade were all outnumbered, using less than 10,000 cavalry to defeat three times its own troops, and one of them was a duel between two cavalry, which was even more exciting.

   "The general has passed the award, and the general is just doing his best." Huo Qubing gave Li Jing a fist and said modestly.

   Then Huo Qubing explained his intentions to Li Jing: "Enlighten the general, and finally propose that the cavalry brigade take the lead and rush towards the capital of the enemy country."

   Xia’s expedition army just fought and won the battle yesterday, but it was still damaged. The best thing to do now is to let the soldiers repair.

   So Li Jing heard that Huo Qubing was here to call for battle, and was a little surprised, and asked: "General Huo, can you tell me what makes General Huo anxious?"

   Huo Qubing replied: "Going back to the general, the final admiral thinks that it is because of our victory yesterday that the enemy must have never expected that our army will carry out an attack at this time, and will definitely hit the enemy and rub his hands in a hurry."

   "Well, this is reasonable." Li Jing first nodded in agreement with Huo Qubing's words, but then he turned to ask: "Has General Huo ever thought that the cavalry brigade penetrates into the enemy's abdomen, where does the army's supply come from?"

   Li Jing means to say that although the idea is good, it is not practical. If the army has no supplies, no matter how powerful it is, there are limits.

   Unexpectedly, Huo Qubing didn’t feel embarrassed when he heard Li Jing’s question. Instead, he confidently replied: “Don’t worry, the general has already carefully researched it. You can still find food in the enemy’s country.”

   Grain, grass, forage, is food, forage, food is the necessities of soldiers, and forage is food for war horses. The fodder for a war horse is not as simple as a handful of hay, but sometimes it eats much better than humans.

   "Black beans, the staple food of North Barbarians, are not eaten by the people of the country due to roughness and gluttony, but they are a good horse material. If they are boiled, soldiers can use them to satisfy hunger..."

  Huo Qubing explained his research to Li Jing in detail. After talking about the supply problem, he briefly explained the battle plan of the cavalry brigade to Li Jing.

   "General, according to the intelligence, the capital of the enemy country is in the west of this plain. You can arrive at the speed of cavalry in a few days. As long as you prepare three days of dry food, it is enough for the cavalry brigade to come and go."

   After listening to Huo Qubing's words, Li Jing pondered for a while and made a decision: "Okay, now that General Huo has a perfect plan, this general agrees."

   The reason why Li Jing agreed with Huo Qubing's raid plan was not because Huo Qubing had a way to feed on the enemy, but because the capital of Baxter Kingdom was west of Muyuan, less than a hundred kilometers away from the place where Xia Guo camped.

   At such a distance, at the speed of the cavalry, one day is enough to arrive. If the dry food is prepared, even if the attack fails, three days are enough for the cavalry brigade to return safely.

   If this distance is longer, there is no need to rush, because it is really difficult to keep up with supplies, and the feeding of the enemy is not so taken for granted.

   Huo Qubing got the answer he wanted, and he clasped his fists very happily and said, "Thank you, General, General!"

   "Remember, you must do what you can!" Although Li Jing agreed to Huo Qubing's raid plan, he was still a little worried. He didn't want Huo Qubing to take the entire army to death for personal reasons.

  Huo Qubing is happy at the moment, but he still noticed Li Jing's worries, so he replied: "Please rest assured, General, I will know the priority at the end."

After getting permission to attack, after Huo Qubing and breakfast, he set off with more than 7,000 cavalry soldiers from the cavalry brigade intact, and rushed to a small town west of Muyuan that evening. This small town was Ian at this time. Where to stay-Stark Town.

  ------------

   After the defeat, Ian rode a wildebeest and took the guards all the way to the west. He escaped first and rushed to Stark Town that night.

   Under the strange gaze of the local dignitaries, Ian entered Stark Town in embarrassment. The first sentence he said was to issue an order: "Order martial law in the town and strengthen the guards."

   Ian ignored the doubts of the local little nobles, but continued to give orders: "Send a letter to the lord of the monarch and ask for support. It is said that Xia Jun has already attacked here."

   "What? Xia Jun is about to fight over?" When the little nobles heard this, they couldn't believe it at first, but it was an army of one hundred and twenty thousand. After only a few days, it was so defeated?

   But they saw Ian's embarrassed appearance, and the soldiers outside the city also lost their helmets and armor, and the number was less than 10,000, so they had to believe it.

   "Xia Jun is calling, what can I do? Or should I run for my life?"

   "Yes, I heard that Xia Jun arrested all the young and strong men~www.novelmtl.com~ and took them as slaves."

   "I don't want to be a slave. I'll go back and clean up and rush to Baxter City tomorrow."...

   But after believing it, the little nobles in these places were even more panicked. They didn't even think about fulfilling Ian's orders. Instead, they discussed how to save their lives in front of Ian. This made Ian angry.

"Okay, when is this, you actually thought of how to escape?" Ian roared loudly, his emotions were completely out of control, and he became very agitated. He has experienced great ups and downs today, and the accumulated emotions are finally in It broke out at the moment.

   "Come here, lock up all these traitors to this knight, copy all their homes to this knight, and see if they have already connected to Xia Country!" This is all Ian's vent.

   In the process of ransacking homes, as long as any store had the same product of Xia Kingdom, it was regarded as treason and was killed by Ian. All the copied property was distributed to the soldiers to improve morale, and the food was also confiscated.

   Ian in Baxter City has no face to go back. He is ready to gather the ruined soldiers here, conquer the strong, and fight hard. Even if he can't defeat the Xia army, he wants to buy more time for Baxter City.

   But who knows, it was just a day before the Knights of Xia Kingdom arrived outside the town.
