Chapter 444 Kahn's plan
As of now, only Hamburg Speaker Heisenberg and several major Hamburg MPs are probably the ones who know about the 18,000 reinforcements.
However, Heisenberg was not very clear about the real news about Marin's reinforcements, and only knew that he had borrowed ships that could carry 20,000 troops to the Duchy of Schleswig, who had borrowed ships to Marin's Duchy of Schleswig.
According to Heisenberg and several Hamburg MPs, it was probably because the Duchy of Schleswig sent 10,000 regular troops, plus 10,000 strong people, as well as various supplies and supplies, so so many ships were needed. What he didn't know was that most of these ships were actually used to load the main war soldiers.
According to Marin's design, if these 18,000 main forces can successfully lurk near the Bossa coalition and complete the raid on the enemy from behind, then the Bossa coalition will definitely be defeated, at least retreat.
By then, these 18,000 people will be able to join the main force, so there will be no need for so many people. Moreover, if you walk on the water, you won’t need too many people. Moreover, the sailors on the boat provided by the Hamburgers will be enough to play as a guest star.
Only long-distance marching on land requires enough civilians to pull carts and transport grain and supplies. If they all go through water, there are very few civilians to be needed. Because the supplies are all loaded on the ship...
After seeing off Speaker Tagfaht, Malin immediately attracted Schwartz, Schall and others to study the changes in the combat plan.
Obviously, after the Bossa coalition left the camp southeast of Lubeck, the previous combat plan needed to be pushed down and started over again. The reinforcements of Woolf Esbrand and Saccarat could no longer follow the original plan and follow the original plan. If they still walked that way, they would definitely collide with the Bossa coalition. Because the Bossa coalition is now moving slowly towards Hamburg along the "Ebei-Lubeck Canal". If the reinforcements ships still walk on this canal, it would be like they would meet the Bossa coalition head-on, and they would still attack P at that time?
However, if reinforcements land on the east bank of the Elbe River near Hamburg, the possibility of leaking is too great. Because Hamburg is a metropolis where people come and go. Here, if you want to walk 18,000 troops, you still want to keep it secret - dream about it...
Marin estimated that it would be no problem to lurk around Hamburg City at this moment. After all, the scale of this war is too large and may determine the direction of Germany in the future, so it will inevitably be highly valued by all countries.
Moreover, unlike Lübeck, Lübeck has been besieged by the Bossa coalition, and many scouts from the Bossa coalition have been sent out. Scouts from other vassal states may not dare to approach. Otherwise, they will easily be eliminated by the scouts of the Bossa coalition as enemies.
As for Hamburg, there were no cavalry responsible for cleaning up the scouts outside the city. It was normal for those who wanted to inquire about the news to sway around Hamburg. Even the Bossa coalition may have sent a large number of scouts.
Under such circumstances, even if Marin dispatched the 200 scout cavalry professionally intercepted scouts, he would probably not have time to intercept scouts from various countries near Hamburg.
After all, the hamburger in Hamburg City can help clean it. And the hamburger around it is more difficult to deal with... 200 people are definitely not enough...
If a scout ran away and reported it to the Bossa coalition, saying that nearly 20,000 troops landed in Hamburg. I'm a big shot, then I'll attack a P...
Therefore, Marin needs to divert the sight of scouts from Hamburg and outside the city, and cover the landing of reinforcements.
The best way is to make a big news in Hamburg City and attract all the scouts nearby. Then, the 18,000 reinforcements under his command will be selected to land not near Hamburg City, and go east overnight to attack the enemy camp...
"Make a big news in Hamburg to attract the attention of scouts from all over the world?" Schwartz asked back.
"Yes, Hamburg is a center of right and wrong anyway. It is easy to attract people to make big news there. As long as the burger people snatch the limelight, no one will notice our reinforcements."
Everyone was silent for a long time, obviously, they were all thinking of ways...
At this time, Kahn, who had been mascot by Marin in this situation, suddenly spoke:
"Young master, I have a way..." Kahn suddenly raised his hand.
"Do you have any other way?" Marin was shocked, and several other senior generals also looked at Kahn with surprise - Good, you are a thug with muscles all over your mind, and you still want to grab our job? Could it be that you are funny, right?
Kahn ignored the surprised gazes of the other people and said to himself:
"Young Master, you want to attract the enemy's attention from Hamburg. It's very simple - let the Hamburg Council recruit 10,000 troops on its own soon?"
"That's it?" Schwartz asked with a dull look on his face.
"What else do you want? It's just eye-catching. There are so many people in Hamburg City, just find 10,000 people to make up the numbers and scare the servants!" Kahn said indifferently.
Marin lowered his head and thought for a while, then slapped his thigh and said:
"It's indeed a good idea. The army of ten thousand can really attract everyone's attention. Even if you recruit 10,000 pigs, it will probably attract everyone's attention!"
The big scene is the most eye-catching. After all, no matter which era, most people like to watch the excitement. Hamburg recruits 10,000 troops with great fanfare, and it is difficult not to attract attention. What's more, Hamburg is an international metropolis with personal crowds.
As long as Hamburg City recruits soldiers with great fanfare, it will definitely attract the attention of scouts from all over the world. At that time, no one will pay attention to the rural areas outside Hamburg City. After all, something big happened in Hamburg City...
He pulled everyone near Hamburg and looked at the newly formed 10,000 troops in Hamburg City. The real reinforcements from Marin happened to land quietly, and then rushed to the camp of the Bossa coalition overnight...
At this time, in order to inquire about the news, scouts from various countries would definitely flock into Hamburg City. Hamburg City has now imposed a curfew. In the middle of the night, Marin's reinforcements landed in the countryside north of Hamburg. The scouts from various countries who flocked into Hamburg City to inquire about the news had no chance to come out to investigate the news...
At this time, it is absolutely enough to use the 200 scout cavalry professionally intercepted scouts to block the eastward intersection. After all, most scouts from various countries were attracted by the big moves of Hamburg City at this time and were trapped in the city by curfew...
Marin smiled and patted Kahn on the shoulder and said:
"I didn't expect that your muscles could come up with such a good idea! Tell me, how did you come up with this good idea?"
Kahn scratched his head honestly and said:
"I didn't think much, but suddenly I remembered that Woolf Esbrand didn't have that guy made 8,000 Minzhuang pretended to be reinforcements to deceive the Bossa coalition? I just thought, let's learn from that guy and let Hamburg get a fake army to attract everyone's attention. Isn't that okay? It's very simple..."
Chapter completed!
