Chapter 706 Cruel Means
"grown ups."
The two guards entered the study, knelt on one knee and saluted respectfully.
"Clean this place up."
After saying that, Irus looked gloomy, threw the knight sword on the ground, turned and left the study.
"Dobik, damn bastard, this guy got into power by selling his butt. After I get through this crisis, I must go to the king and report him."
There are more than 100,000 alien troops in front of him, and there are more than 100,000 enemy troops in the south. With 210,000 troops under his command, plus the two strong men of the Holy Seal of the Scrabst family, he has no confidence in defending the Soler Province. .
Three hours later, in the castle hall, Irus looked at Gref and walked towards him.
"Good afternoon, Marquis of Irus." Gref put his right hand on his chest and bowed slightly to show respect.
Irus signaled the other party to encourage him, invited him to sit down, and said straight to the point: "General Gref, that bastard Dobik first lost the province of Badako, and a few days ago he abandoned the county of Carrigos and took Soller. The barrier in the southern part of the province has been surrendered to the enemy. It has been occupied by the enemy and will attack our 10th Army Corps in the near future. What do you think we should do?"
Gref looked at the map hanging on the wall, thought for a moment, and shook his head helplessly: "Lord Irus, given the current situation, if you want to retake Karigos County, you must have three times the enemy's strength. ”
Hearing Gref's answer, Irus fell into a rage again and cursed loudly: "That guy who sold his ass to get high, I must take revenge on him, I must take revenge on him."
Looking at Marquis Irus who was like a shrew, Gref stood quietly aside and did not say anything to comfort him.
As a general of the kingdom, he also looked down upon this guy Dobik, but he had no choice but to have a higher military rank than him. If he discussed it in public, he might leave a few tongues wagging, so it was better to be cautious.
After the anger in his heart was vented, Irus took a deep breath, looked at Gref, and asked: "General Gref, you are the best general in the kingdom at fighting defensive warfare. With the current situation, do you think we How to deal with it.”
Gref pointed to several important fortresses on the map, then pointed to a river, and suggested: "The birthplace of the Soller River is located at the central peak, running through multiple regions, flowing through the Soller Province, and entering the Kingdom of Anza Sea Breeze Province.”
"We intercept the river in the middle and accumulate the river water. It only takes half a month to release the water to flood the earldom of Obra and the northeastern area of Sea Breeze Province, hindering the enemy's marching speed."
"Carriges County in the south is the southern gateway to Soller Province. It is basically impossible to take it back now, but we can deploy a large number of small troops in this mountainous area, destroy the roads, and let the Church of the God of Beasts The Beast Envoys help drive away the monsters and attack the enemy forces in the south."
"During this period, all young men and women in the province of Soller are recruited. They are distributed with weapons and used as cannon fodder. They are stationed in various cities on the southern front to strengthen the fortresses and consume the enemy's numbers and energy."
"In addition, around Soller City, destroy the terrain, deploy traps, and breed venomous snakes, insects, and ants. You can feed them with the old and the weak to increase the toxicity and aggressiveness of the snakes and insects, so that the wild beasts can use them to control their behavior."
"Finally, Marquis Irus, you can dig a tunnel in case of emergency."
After hearing Gref's plan, Irus fell silent for a moment.
He thought that he was a ruthless person who would do anything to achieve his goals. Unexpectedly, compared with Gref, he was still far inferior!
"Count Coleridge Obra, I have no choice but to suffer."
Irus pretended to look helpless and said sadly.
Seeing this, Gref echoed: "My lord, Marquis of Irus, I believe that Count Coleridge Obla will definitely forgive you if he knows about it."
"Of course, if he dies, he will definitely forgive you. If he lives, it depends on how you let him die normally." Gref said silently in his heart.
Irus pretended to be in pain and said, "General Gref, I leave the province of Soller to you."
Regarding Irus's words, Gref naturally heard the hidden meaning in his words.
In addition to the 50,000 troops and their families under his command, the entire Soler Province is at his disposal. As long as he can defend the Soler Province, he can pay any price.
"I respect your command, Lord Irus."
After sending Gref away, Irus walked back and forth in the castle hall. After careful consideration, he decided to send his family out of Sorel Province first.
On the second day, a large number of troops entered Soller City and the surrounding areas. With the cooperation of grassroots officials, a large number of young men were brought into the military camp.
There are more than two million people in the entire province of Soller. Excluding the families of the soldiers of the Irus Legion, as well as the families of other nobles and their troops, the number of strong men that can be recruited is about 600,000.
In other areas of the province of Soller, most of the troops used the action of arresting young men to plunder money and materials, rape and plunder, and committed all kinds of evil.
For this move, Gref directly acquiesced, and only needed to hand over 30% of the wealth plundered.
…
Carriggs County, Houston Province, Kyle looked at the information in his hand with some doubts in his heart.
He couldn't understand what was happening in Soller Province.
Kyle raised his head, glanced at the generals of the Black Rock Army and the Thousand Fort Army, and asked, "What do you think?"
After hearing this, Fei Rui walked out of the queue, beat his chest and saluted, and said, "Sir Kyle, the enemy wants to use ordinary people to consume the lower-level soldiers and combat energy of our army."
"Yeah?"
"Sir, when the Ansa Kingdom and the Geman Kingdom went to war in the past, both countries used similar methods in the mountainous and hilly areas."
"Although ordinary people are very fragile, dozens or even hundreds of ordinary people attacking a professional soldier may kill him."
Kyle nodded, waved his hand to signal the other party to retreat, and then said: "Three days later, the whole army will set out."
"Yes, sir." Everyone answered loudly.
After the generals of the two armies left the tent, Kyle looked at the terrain on the map, and then looked at the Soller River that was thousands of kilometers long, and suddenly understood something.
In the evening, a team of knights left the barracks with Kyle's letter.
In the city of Carrigs, after receiving Kyle's letter, Weilin carefully speculated and analyzed it, wrote a letter, and asked the guard knight to deliver the letter to Earl Russell, the commander of the 18th Army.
As for Earl Coleridge Obra who wanted to surrender, Weilin called a shadow guard and asked him to contact the earl to see if he wanted to surrender.
