"Can't go!" Solandale grabbed Garrot's wrist and confronted him against the corner of the table, and said anxiously, "There are more than 100,000 people here, what will they do if I leave?!" ”

Garrot glared angrily and screamed in his heart, "I don't care! My only good friend here is dead, and I'm poisoned now, and I don't have the strength to avenge him. I've already failed an old friend, and I can't let another one down! I promised Perseus to protect you and bring you back to the royal city safely no matter what, and the others are blessed, and I can't help them! ”

Garrot dragged hard, Solandelle's small body couldn't resist it, she was so anxious that she bit directly on Garrot's hand, making him eat pain and let go.

Just as Garrot wanted to curse, Solandale was already looking at him angrily and shouted, "If I leave my compatriots behind and run away by myself, what difference am I from the Fagao you hate?!" ”

Garrot's eyes froze in place in a complicated manner, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Solandale calmed down for a moment, looked at him and said faintly: "Garlot, calm down, I am in a critical situation now, I need your help." ”

Garrot's mood seemed a little irritable: "How can I help you?" If I knew the Legion Command, of course I could stay here and replace you, but I used to be a Pioneer General in the Lionheart Legion, a Pioneer General! Got it? The kind that directly rushes into battle and slashes people, not the commander! I can't command these tens of thousands of people! ”

"You can't listen to my advice, Your Royal Highness Princess, don't be a hero here, sometimes the reality is very cruel, you have to make trade-offs, your life is more important than everyone here, you must not lose a big because of a small thing!"

"Well, if you think my life is more important than anyone else, then I should stay here!" Solandale walked quickly to the sand table, sorted out the war games placed on it, and said solemnly, "Garlot, you don't realize one thing, now our fate has been tied to the soldiers of the frozen fortress, assisting the soldiers and civilians to evacuate in an orderly manner, not only to save them, but also to save ourselves." ”

Solandel picked up his baton and shook it around the canyon area on the sand table: "The Frozen Fortress is located in the northernmost part of Dogurland, connected to the boundary of the "Tatawa Province", and the southern area is mostly mountains and hills, and you have to pass through the capital "Cold Valley" to enter the plains. ”

"The distance between the frozen fortress and the cold valley is more than 500 miles, the roads are icy, the mountains are stacked, and it would be good if we could walk 7 or 80 miles a day, and it would take at least 7 days to return to the inland area."

"But with the current state of the frozen fortress, if there is no one to command, the surviving soldiers may not be able to hold out for even one day under the impact of the remnants of the Six Kings."

"Those tribal warriors lived in the north all year round, and were very adapted to walking on glaciers, and even tamed saber-toothed tigers, so to speak, in the snowy regions. If we abandon everyone and run away, we may be able to survive for a while, but after 3 days at most, the army of the remnants of the Six Kings will catch up with us, and then we will have only a dead end! ”

Although Garrot didn't understand the command of the legion, as a former pioneer general, he still had military common sense, he frowned and looked at the sand table, silently made calculations in his heart, and realized that there was no problem with the data that Solandale said.

Garrot pondered for a moment and asked, "What should I do then?" ”

Seeing that Garrot's tone was somewhat relaxed, Solandel breathed a sigh of relief and explained: "It's very simple, if you run alone, you will definitely die, and the remnants of the Six Kings obviously want to fight a war of annihilation and kill us all, so we must organize an orderly retreat war, always preserve the living forces, and delay their offensive to the greatest extent." ”

Grain

"And our ultimate goal is to retreat to the Cold Valley—" Solandale said in four words, "reconstruct the defense!" ”

"Reconstruct the defenses...," Garrow muttered.

Solandel nodded heavily: "The reason why the Frozen Fortress fell so quickly this time is because of the ghosts inside, which led to the killing of all the high-ranking generals, the city gate was also damaged, and the offensive and defensive battles directly turned into white-knives battles. If the city gate is not broken, with the defense facilities of the frozen fortress, the four major legions can completely block the army of hundreds of thousands of tribes, this is the power of the fortifications! ”

"Therefore, our ultimate goal is the Cold Valley, we have to retreat there with the soldiers, rely on the fortifications of the Cold Valley to reconstruct the defense line, completely block the route of the remnants of the Six Kings to attack the interior, and crush their plot. That way everyone will be safe, and we will be safe. ”

Garrot muttered, "Cold Valley is a good fort, and the city defenses there are even better than the frozen fortresses. But the question is, as you also said, the frozen fortress is more than 500 miles away from the Cold Valley, how can we retreat back under the pursuit of the remnants of the Six Kings? ”

Solandale pointed his baton on the wargames of the frozen fortress and said without hesitation: "There is only one way, and that is to evacuate alternately - integrate the current soldiers into several units, one of the broken rear troops will stay to block the enemy's impact, and the rest of the troops will retreat to the advantageous terrain to establish a blocking position, and then the original broken rear troops will abandon their positions and retreat, and the original evacuated troops will become broken back troops, and so on." ”

When that image came to mind, Garrot couldn't help but nod: "That's a good way..."

Solandale whispered, "I learned it from a friend, I have only practiced on the sand table, I have not experienced actual combat, and now I can only try my best." ”

Grabbing the back of his head, Garrot paced back and forth in the room, and said in a complicated tone: "I still have to remind you that the sand table is different from actual combat. The battlefield is changing rapidly, and there will be many unexpected factors, especially the current absolutely inferior troops, if you take a wrong step, we will be finished. ”

Solandale smiled slightly, and deliberately said in a joking tone: "Anyway, inaction is the end, so it's better to let go and gamble on whether my grades in the academy are really talented." ”

Garrot sighed heavily and asked in a deep voice, "Have you already chosen the location of the blocking position?" ”

Solandale: "Picked. ”

Garrot: "Is there anything I can do for you?" ”

"Trust, Garrot, I need your trust, trust with all my heart." Solandale walked up to Garrot and held out his hand to him, his eyes full of sun-hot eyes, "Now, the fate of us and the soldiers of the Frozen Fortress is linked, and my power alone is too small to rely on your strength. ”

"I need you to trust me with all your heart, to be the sword in my hand, and even if I make any fatal mistakes, you must follow me closely without the slightest hesitation."
