In this day and age, the concept of the beacon is not original to Sean.

Within the territory of the Chainas Empire, beacons, post stations, and military post roads constitute a huge intelligence network that covers all corners of the entire empire, and this huge intelligence network also allows the entire Chainas Empire to completely control all situations inside and outside the country. To some extent, the Chainas Empire did not believe much in the power of magic, and it was certainly unlikely that such a method would be adopted by other magic-loving countries.

Sean just chose a compromise.

This kind of compromise is the favorite and best way for all players.

Of course, the setting of the beacon tower will actually have many obstacles, not that the effect of the beacon tower is omnipotent, this is also for the establishment of military post roads and post stations in the Chainas Empire. But fortunately, Sean's territory is not very large at the moment, so he doesn't need to consider other obstacles for the beacon, he just needs to draw a gourd in the same way.

The sky was fairly clear.

The campfire in the beacon tower was as bright as a lighthouse, and even though it was a sunny morning, thousands of miles away, you could still see the glittering light on the newly built tallest tower in Void City.

A very young-looking man looked surprised when he saw the light burning on the tower: "Why did the beacon tower be lit?" The timing is wrong, right? ”

Another young man, who had been holding a stick of grass in his mouth and was closing his eyes to recuperate, heard the words of his companion, and he jumped up with a carp and spat out the grass that was still chewing in his mouth, while looking sideways into the distance.

At this distance, of course, he couldn't still see Void City, and likewise he couldn't see the tower and the beacon. But. Because the fuel used in the beacon tower was not ordinary fuel, he could also see the orange-red light in the distance at this distance, and he vaguely seemed to have seen the raging flames in the beacon tower.

"It's really not right at this point in time." Another young man, who was slightly older than the two, also frowned and said in a deep voice, "According to Lord William's instructions, we will have more than two months of recuperation. Now the beacon is suddenly lit, and I am not ready for it, and those recruits obviously can't fully integrate into the team......"

"We're not the same." The man who was still holding a green grass in his mouth sighed, "Although it is a good thing that we have expanded our army in order to cope with the war. However, many of them are new recruits, and they have not been trained in war at all, and if they are about to go to the battlefield at this level, I am afraid that they will suffer heavy losses. ”

"If the three of you join forces, you won't have a lot to lose."

A female voice suddenly sounded.

The three men on the plain were immediately startled. Quickly stood up and straightened up as she saluted Rena, who was walking towards them.

Today, Rena didn't wear that set of angel armor. Instead, he wore a black and red military uniform.

This is a new masterpiece that Sean and William have recently concocted. The shape of the military uniform is a template for the modified design of the military uniforms of the Chainus Empire and the Millennium Covenant Empire, and is not the military uniform used by the military headquarters of the Principality of Lane.

The uniform was clearly tailor-made for Rena, with long trousers that made her legs appear more slender and a pair of black mountain boots on her feet, a white shirt underneath and a dark black tunic on the outside. The cuffs of the outer shirt are about three millimetres shorter than the cuffs of the inner shirt. The cuffs of the white shirt were revealed, and although the front of the blouse was six gold buttons on either side, Rena did not button the blouse at this time, as it would make her breasts appear fuller. This made Rena a little uncomfortable. In addition, there are red lines on the cuffs, neckline and placket of the jacket.

Rena, who is dressed in a military uniform, is not as awe-inspiring as wearing Angel Armor, but the whole person is more charming and heroic. The uniform was originally equipped with a long trench coat, but apparently Rena didn't wear it today.

Military uniforms, this is the work that is currently on the itinerary in Sean's territory. It's just that at present, due to the tight war, although an order has been placed with the workshop in the Void City, only a dozen sets have been temporarily produced for the commanders of each legion to change their outfits, and the soldiers under his command have not yet been equipped.

Basically, it is a set of clothing that can be used for any occasion in a non-war situation, and at the same time can symbolize status. After all, it's impossible to let Rena wander the streets every day wearing that set of angel armor that weighs dozens of pounds - the same is true for other soldiers.

"Although we have not yet received any definite news from Lord William, it is certain that the war has begun." Rena glanced at the three people standing in front of her, and then said in a deep voice, "You don't need to think too much, just take care of your own work." ”

"Yes!" The three of them responded in unison.

Looking at the reactions of the three of them, Reina's gaze towards the three of them was filled with a look of ill will, which made the hearts of the three of them rise to their throats. Perhaps sensing their nervousness, Rena didn't continue to scrutinize, but said, "Next time, I don't want to see you dressed so sloppily. Lord William and Lord Lord's military uniform was specially ordered for us to consider that we cannot wear armor at all times, so you either don't wear this military uniform, but if you do, I hope you can take this military uniform more seriously! ”

"Yes!" The three of them looked a little embarrassed.

These three people, naturally, are Stalin, Aldolf and Nock.

As the new generation of generals under Sean who is second only to Alfred, Rena, Anno, and Clove, Stalin, Aldolph, and Nock also belong to the existence of a certain amount of influence in the military system, especially in the minds of the young people in several villages and towns in the Chirav Command, these three people are synonymous with "idols". At present, the reason why the army of these three people can be expanded is not only partly due to the permission and transfer from William, but also because these three people rely on their influence to pull new recruits from the Kiraf Territory.

When they retreated from Chirav, almost all the young men in several villages and towns followed these three people to evacuate. At present, those who remain in the villages and towns of Qirav are all old people who can no longer afford to make long journeys, and naturally there are no extra supplies left. Therefore, although the southern nobles of Dabion recaptured the Kiraf territory without a single soldier, their army has not been replenished in the slightest, and they still need to rely on military supply lines from the rear of the southern kingdom.

However, although these three have now grown to be able to take charge on their own, and can even command two or three thousand troops, they are still afraid when facing Rena.

This is not just because the personal strength of these three people is weak, but also because the three of them were also Rena's subordinates at the beginning, so they were also trained by Rena. When they saw Rena, the three of them naturally remembered the pain of being a recruit in the first place—but resentment. That's definitely not, on the contrary, while they are afraid of Rena, they are more grateful in their hearts, because if it weren't for Rena's strict guidance at the beginning, it would naturally be impossible to be where they are now.

Even today. In terms of rank and status, these three people can already be on an equal footing with Rena, Alfred and others, but when facing Rena. But they are still like the recruits of the year. There is no arrogance.

So in the face of Rena's admonition, these three people lowered their heads like good babies and didn't dare to say anything, and they didn't have the demeanor of being the head of an army at all.

"Mistress Rena!" While Rena continued to admonish the trio, an officer scurried up.

"What's the matter?" Rena turned around and asked in a deep voice.

"Urgent." The officer immediately handed the information in his hand through the magical teleportation to Rena.

When she saw the red mark on the note, it wasn't just Rena. Even the faces of Aldolf, Stalin, and Nock became solemn. Although they all knew that the lighting of the beacon would mean the early start of the war, they never imagined that the battle order that followed would be an urgent report marked in red. This was already the highest level of intelligence priority designed by William.

Unfolded the note and glanced at it, Rena's eyes had sharpened.

Without the slightest hesitation, she immediately turned to Aldolf, Stalin, and Nock and said, "You go back and prepare immediately, the war has officially begun, and there is no time for you to continue to grind slowly." …… Aldolph, your legion must be drawn before tonight, and I don't care what you do, within a week you must break through the first two lines of defense that Dabion has laid out in the Kiraf territory! ”

"Yes!" Aldolf saluted, answered in a deep voice, and immediately ran away.

Since his legion, as the vanguard of this counterattack on Kiraf's territory, must be drawn tonight, there is not much time left for him.

"Stalin!"

"In!" Stalin replied in a deep voice.

"You must get to the back valley in three days, and build a defensive line there to resist the enemy forces that might be led from Berbis, and buy time for Aldolph to attack the enemy's lines. …… At the very least, hold out for four days, and then you can evacuate and join Aldolph! ”

"Yes!" Stalin's face changed slightly, but he quickly answered and walked away quickly.

The Back Valley Hills is a hilly mountain area located in the northern part of the Kiraf Territory near the Burbis Territory, which is closest to the second line of defense laid out by the Kingdom of Dabion in the Kiraf Territory, so if the reinforcements of the Berbis Territory want to quickly reinforce the defenders of the Kiraf Territory, then they must pass through here. Otherwise, you will have to make a detour from the Valley of Falling Flowers to enter the Kiraf Territory, but then it will take half a month to send reinforcements.

Half a month, which was enough for Aldolf, who was the best at offensive warfare, to dismantle the second line of defense of the Dabiang Kingdom under the leadership of Qiraf two or three times.

So the real difficulty of the problem lies in the back valley hills.

Because Nock knew very well that there were still 30,000 enemy troops in Burbis's territory, and if all these forces poured in, it would be impossible for the First Rank Corps, which currently had only 4,000 men, to stop the enemy army - let alone four days, I am afraid that the First Rank Corps would be removed from it the next day. But now that Rena has given the death order, this shows that Stalin has no room for refusal and maneuver in this order, so even if he dies, he can only die in the back valley hills.

But for Stalin, who was the best at playing defensive battles, this task was indeed only entrusted to him.

"Nock."

"In!" Two of the three people left, and naturally only Nock was left.

"Let's go, too. Your 2nd Infantry Regiment is the least in terms of strength, and you're not really good at both offensive and defensive battles. Rena's voice was a little low, "But you also have things they can't reach, so I'm not going to put any hard metrics on you." …… You have a lot of freedom in this battle, so try to help both of them. I hope...... At the end of the war, I can still see the three of you. ”

Looking at Rena, Nock was silent for several seconds before saluting Rena. Then he said, "I know the truth, my lord." ”

With that, Nock left.

"Your Excellency......" seemed to see that Rena's mood was heavy, and the officer in charge of delivering the information was silent for more than ten minutes before finally couldn't help but speak. What do we do next? ”

"You immediately go back and give orders and get everyone ready. Our troops will also be mobilized tonight. Rena said in a deep voice. This war is still a tragic and bloody battle, because we are going to go deep into the Berbice territory and completely cut off the retreat of the enemy army in the Berbice territory and the reinforcements from other territories to the Berbice territory. ”

Hearing Rena's words, the officer's eyes widened in disbelief: "My lord, although we are cavalry troops. But...... But there are only a thousand of us......"

"I know it." Reina's hand holding the note strained slightly, and the entire note was quickly pinched and deformed or even shattered, "This is Lord William's order." …… We just need to expand and stabilize the results as much as possible during this week, and in a week reinforcements will arrive. ”

"I got it. My lord! When the officer saw Rena's appearance, of course, he also knew that Rena's mood was not very good, so he turned around and left without any more nonsense.

If anyone else dared to say that they would use a thousand cavalry to go deep behind enemy lines and try to inflict heavy damage and stop the enemy, the officer would have given him a slap in the face and asked if he had woken up. However, since it was said by their most trusted commander, Rena, he believed that their entire First Cavalry unit would not have the slightest suspicion, and that reinforcements would arrive in a week's time, which was undoubtedly a booster.

Looking at the officer's departing back, Rena sighed slightly.

As someone who had participated in several real military meetings, Rena was naturally very aware of William's overall strategic plan, but the current situation and orders were obviously completely inconsistent with the third phase of the plan she knew. Although the plan of the third stage is to let her, Aldolf, Stalin, Nock, and the upcoming Anno and other five people, a total of 23,000 people, eat a total of 70,000 enemy troops in the two places of Kiraf and Berbis.

However, in the original plan, after Anno's arrival, their side took the lead in attacking and directly ate the 40,000 garrisons led by Chiraf in one go, and it was also Anno's steel wings who were responsible for blocking the reinforcements led by Burbis in the back valley hills. And their thirteen,000 men, after eating the enemy troops led by Chiraf, circled behind the enemy from the Valley of Falling Flowers, and attacked Anno back and forth.

Although in this way, there will still be a certain amount of losses, and it may even lead to the withdrawal of two or three armies in the following war.

However, after eating up the enemy's 70,000 troops in one go, coupled with the success of the first and second phases of the plan, the private soldiers of Dabion's southern aristocratic faction were only 150,000 without counting the Boulder family, and this number could no longer pose any threat to Sean and others. Because in William's plan, when the war reaches this stage, it should be the official outbreak of the national war between the two countries, and for Sean, who has already occupied six territories, they only need to do a good job of holding on and wait for the fruits of the victory of the war between the two countries.

But now, the plan has changed significantly.

Reina knew that they had to win this battle no matter what, and that they had to do everything they could to expand the results within a week.

Because it's a counterattack from William.

It is the most fuse that forced the Duchy of Lane and the Kingdom of Dabion to officially break out into war! (To be continued......)
