Chapter 761: A Rapidly Changing Situation (4)

"Okay, let's solve the problem in front of us first, the Divine Light Empire is our ally after all, if the Divine Light Empire is finished, we will not be far from destroying the country, now let's discuss the matter about the Holy Light Harbor first." After breaking the silence around him again, Duke Yanshi said to everyone: "First of all, it is necessary to report the situation here to His Majesty, Chris, this matter is up to you, and at the same time, you must also convey the battle plan of the Sunset Fleet to all the surrounding coastal towns, especially Gryphon Harbor, I estimate that the Sunset Empire is likely to be the next target of Griffon Harbor." ”

"Okay Lord Duke, I'm going to deal with this matter right now." After saying that, Chris hurriedly left the conference hall to find the herald in the Demon Flame Castle, although it was impossible to transmit the news from the sea to Griffon Harbor, but the Griffin Empire has a unique intelligence transmission system established by the Griffon, and the transmission speed is even faster than the mature intelligence network of the Sunset Empire.

"So what we're going to talk about next is the most important topic, should we go to the port of Light now? I think we need to support the Holy Light Harbor, the sun never sets people have a saying called the lips and teeth, the Holy Light Harbor can be said to be a barrier to our Demon Flame Castle in the current situation, after all, compared to the Demon Flame Castle, this difficult bone Holy Light Harbor can be said to be much more delicious, and the Holy Light Harbor can be said to be a shield for us in a large way, you must know that if the Holy Light Harbor is not so rich, it may be our Demon Flame Castle or even Griffin Harbor that will be attacked this time, Add to that our current relationship with the Divine Light Empire. Therefore, I personally advocate going to support the Holy Light Harbor, and if you have any objections, please let them hear. ”

"I have." It was Willis, who discovered the conspiracy of the sun never set, who spoke: "Of course, I declare first that I myself hope that our army can save the Holy Light Harbor. After all, the Holy Light Harbor has too much influence on this battle, if the Holy Light Harbor is destroyed, our side may really lose this battle, and it is very likely that we will lose the troops deployed on the Maginot Line, but I also have objections to the rescue of the Holy Light Port, to be precise, we think that even if we can send troops to support the Holy Light Port, we may not be able to do it. ”

"What do you mean by Count Willis? Are you questioning the combat capabilities of our Griffon Empire warriors? One of the griffon Empire captains present said with a frown after hearing Count Willis's speech.

In this regard, Willis learned that the griffin Empire commander in front of him was a hoplite commander. He shrugged his shoulders slightly: "No, I'm not questioning the abilities of our Griffin Empire warriors, but I hope you don't underestimate the sunset navy in front of you." You must know that these troops, who are scarcely numbered in your eyes, who only rely on the sophisticated weapons of war in their hands, and are no match for the heavy troops on land, have not only captured the port of Holy Light, which we have not captured for hundreds of years. It is also necessary to prepare to raze the entire Holy Light Port to the ground. ”

"You .........." The griffin Empire Legion, who was sarcastically ridiculed by Willis intentionally or unintentionally, pointed at Willis with a look of shame, and even looked like I was going to duel with you, but Willis himself was not interested in this. And if you want to duel, you don't know who loses and who wants to fight. Although Willis is not a legion commander but an earl, he has never led troops to fight, and he has never done less duels to rob women, you must know that this is the scorched earth, and Willis is a nobleman.

"If you think what I said is wrong, do you think you can take the Holy Light Harbor with the same number of troops as the Imperial Navy on which the sun never sets? If not, shut up. After saying that, Willis directly ignored the griffin empire captain who interjected, and then said to everyone: "There are three reasons why I said this. The first point, I think everyone already knows, is the Xiyi Legion that blocked the strength of the 3 legions in front of us. For these 3 Xiyi legions, I have done my homework when I learned about the Sunset Empire before, and what is known is that these 3 legions are light infantry legions in the army of the Sunset Empire, but they are said to be high-mobility light infantry regiments that specialize in dealing with heavy infantry, and the combat method is as brave and fearless as the Xiyi people, so I estimate that if we want to fight these 3 legions, then we need regular heavy troops with the strength of 4 legions to compete with them, and we need at least 5 legions to defeat them. ”

"But! I want you to know that what I said before is that time can only be achieved without any distractions, but can I really be without distractions? Of course it can't be, not to mention far away, I estimate that as long as our marines leave the castle gate, the next moment they will all be aimed at us, and in addition to these terrifying war equipment, I hope you don't forget those Naga warriors lurking in the water, at least 20,000 Naga warriors are guarding the scorched earth shore with 30,000 Xiyi warriors and hundreds of warships, I believe that even the Yanshi Legion that went to support the Duke this time is estimated to not be able to complete the task. ”

"Then we can't make a detour, this time we are fighting against the navy of the Sun Never Setting Empire, it is impossible for them to fight far from the coast, even if those Xiyi warriors can Naga warriors, it is impossible for Naga warriors to fight far from the water, I think we just need to make a detour to the Holy Light Harbor." Duke Yanshi said with a frown.

"Then my second question is Lord Duke, if we transfer some of the troops in the castle, then what if the Xiyi fleet of the Empire of the Sun Never Sets really attacks our Demon Flame Castle?" Willis asked: "I have calculated before, if the sun does not set on this side, if there are only 50,000 troops, then we can use the militia troops in the city to cooperate with some regular troops to garrison to defend the Demon Flame Castle, but in this case, our troops supporting the Holy Light Harbor are only 50,000 infantry and 4 auxiliary regiments of the Fire Lion Legion at most, but you must know that the Naga troops attacking the Holy Light Harbor are at least 60,000 or more, or even more, and the regular troops of the Holy Light Empire stationed in the Holy Light Harbor before were only a few legions, And this time it was the Naga troops who launched a surprise attack, so I estimate that even if our more than 90,000 reinforcements arrive at the Holy Light Harbor, it will be in vain, because if we want to compete with more than 60,000 Naga warriors, and the number of the two Sunset Fleets is not enough to rely on 50,000 regular troops and 40,000 light infantry, if we want to defeat them, we must at least send out all the entire troops in the Demon Flame Castle, and by the way, I would like to remind you here that the lack of time is not the sun does not set but us, if we can't reach the Holy Light Harbor within 1 and a half days, then in fact we don't have to go. ”

"What? 1 day and a half? "How is this possible, we are heavy infantry and not cavalry, and even if the cavalry is not light cavalry, we will not be able to travel 100 kilometers in a day and a half to reach the Holy Light Harbor!" A legion leader of the Griffin Empire couldn't help but say.

"So that's the third reason I'm going to say, a reason why we can't plan anything that works." Willis said with a wry smile: "I want to ask everyone, among the intelligence collected on the front line, what weapon do you think is the most terrifying in the Sunset Empire?" ”

"The new weapon that can quickly destroy a battleship?"

"Shoot through the Mo forging crossbow of the super-heavy infantry?"

"It's Greek fire!" Duke Yanshi seemed to have thought of something, holding his forehead and saying with a wry smile: "I thought that the sun never set, how could I come up with the idea of destroying a huge port, it turned out to be Greek fire!" ”

"That's right, it's Greek fire!" Willis said: "The properties of Greek fire look very similar to fire oil, but in fact Greek fire has one more property than fire oil, and that is the adhesion of Greek fire - according to the frontline war reports, we can know that Greek fire is very difficult to extinguish by water, and even if there is no flammable material, it can burn for a long time, so I want to say that you should know that the Holy Light Empire has recently had a batch of supplies to be shipped to the front line............ It is the soldiers' spring clothes and food. ”

“…… That is, it is highly likely that the sun does not set on the entire Port of Light with these things. ”

"It's not all." Willis sighed and continued: "After so many years of fighting in the Holy Light Port, I think everyone should know that although the building structure of the Holy Light Port is basically made of stones, it is because there is a military port, but in the commercial area behind the port area, of course, I prefer to use the word slave area to describe it, you know that the buildings in the slave area are basically made of wood, and the back few residential areas are basically made of wood except for some merchants and nobles. So what I want to say is that as long as the sun doesn't set on the harbor area, and as long as a flame reaches the slave area, we'll just be taking troops in there. ”

“…………… Send the Flame Lion troops around the scorched earth shore towards the Holy Light Harbor, at least our side as allies should pretend, so be it, and dismiss the meeting. ”

At the same time, in the conference hall of the Holy Light Port, the magnates and officers of the Holy Light Port had already entered the conference hall one after another, and the city lord of the Holy Light Port was sitting extremely haggard this time on his own actions.

"Strange, where has His Excellency Chris's Legion gone?" After all, Chris was the focus of everyone's attention before, so when the door was closed, when everyone found out that Chris did not appear in the conference hall, both the old nobles and the nouveau riche were slightly commotion, and the sound of conversation even made the haggard City Lord of the Holy Light Harbor frown.

At this moment, the screams that pierced the entire city hall echoed in everyone's ears. (To be continued......)
