Chapter 69 Strategy Master(1/2)

The Hudds were still siegeing the city, and the general suddenly arrived. Jeska was obviously panicked: "You...why are you here?"

"Me?" Sekler punched the lieutenant colonel's left chest and gritted his teeth, "I'm here to present you a grand prize!"

The general moved his hand away and everyone saw a golden medal on Jieshika's chest.

"Gentlemen!" Andre took the opportunity and raised his helmet and shouted: "Cheer three times for Lieutenant Colonel Jeska!"

"Long live!"

"Long live!"

"Long live!"

Other soldiers in the command center took off their hats and cheered in unison.

Only Jeska's smile was very reluctant - because the needle behind the medal hurts to penetrate the flesh.

Mason and Winters were also urgently summoned to the team headquarters, but Sekler did not get angry at the centurion and gave the two lieutenants a kind of medal.

Winters' ears were buzzing with cannons, and he didn't hear what Sekler was saying.

After receiving the commendation order tied with a red rope, he lowered his head and asked the general to hang the medal around his neck, and he hurried back to the fort wall.

The three sword medals, two silvers and one gold, symbolized by [Heroic and Fearless], were awarded by Sekler personally, to commend the Jeska Ministry's heroic raid on the Terdon Camp.

Whether it is gold and silver medals, they are tied with a blue ribbon, and there is a needle on the back, so they can be pinned on the clothes.

Although Jeska never deliberately gets close to his subordinates on weekdays, from his actual actions, he still loves his centurion very much.

The lieutenant colonel showed mercy when reporting to the headquarters, and did not write about "Lieutenant Richard Mason lost."

It was just said that in order to get rid of the pursuers on the retreat, the brigade was circling northward and accidentally discovered the enemy camp.

But there is a flaw in the story: according to the habits of the Heds, they would wear armor ten miles away from the battlefield, change horses, and skeletons on bows, so the camp was set at least ten miles away.

Take a detour? How can I go ten miles away?

According to Winters' idea, it was at least logically reasonable to say that "hid crashed into the Detective Hurd and followed him back all the way."

However, the quill pen is in Jeska's hands, and the Lieutenant Colonel does not want to brag too much.

In the report, the lieutenant colonel did not mention the issue of offering sacrifices to the golden man in heaven at all - because the golden man was still buried in a pit.

It was just said that it was to seize some sacrificial vessels and flags, and sent a few items to the headquarters as proof.

The sacrificial vessels and flags are all empty, and the most important spoils are the thousands of Hed horses.

The horse herd of the Terdun tribe was frightened by Winters with a powerful enhancement version of the [Shocking Beast], and most of them disappeared into the night, and only a small part was gathered together.

The captured horses were taken to the south bank of the confluence river, and there were hundreds of groups, and they could not be faked.

However, after Bard inspected the horse, the evaluation given was "unusual".

First, the best war horses have been taken away by the Hed cavalry, and the war horses left in the camp are of poor quality; secondly, the Hed horses are not tall enough, and according to the standards of the Paratu cavalry, these horses are a bit short even for light cavalry; finally, the most important issue: the season is wrong.

Behind it is a huge farming society as support. Paratu's war horses can eat food, while Hedma, who lives in the wasteland, mainly relies on eating grass.

It is difficult for Hedma to find food in winter, and it depends on the forage they have been harvested and the fat they have saved in autumn to spend the winter - this is also one of the reasons why Paratu specializes in winter and starts war in early spring.

Horses continue to lose weight in winter, and mares are approaching to produce foals in spring, which is the weakest time for the Hurd tribes.

[Note: Because the horse's pregnancy cycle is 11 months and the Hud tribes lack greenhouse stables, foals born in autumn and winter are difficult to survive. They will try to let the mares mate in the warm spring and summer]

The Terdun tribe gathered to fight this season. Although they caught Palatu off guard, they would never feel good either.

The clues can be seen from these Hedma: the captured Hedma's abdomen is shrunk, the ribs are bulging one by one, and even if they are put into the pot, they feel thin.

"These horses should either be found to be well kept and wait for the coming year." Bard had an absolute say in this matter. He advised the lieutenant colonel at the meeting: "Either eat them as soon as possible, and the fatter they will be less. In short, it is unusable and cannot even feed and fatten."

"Why can't you feed and fatten? "Winters was puzzled.

In order to siege for a long time, the Paratu army transported a large amount of food and fodder from the local area, otherwise Winters would not be here now.

"Hedma has been eating grass since she was a child, and eating food directly can easily have problems with her stomach." Bard explained: "If you want these horses to stay alive, you must let them eat at least half of the day."

Whether it is useful or not, being able to seize thousands of horses is a great achievement, and eating it as meat is also kept for the Heds.

A medal adds up to about 100 grams, and at least 80 grams of them are exchanged for those Hedmas.

I also have to thank Lieutenant Colonel Jeska for giving most of the credit to his subordinates, otherwise it would not be the turn of two small centurions to receive the [Knight's Sword Great Cross].

As soon as Winters went out, he tore off the medal, rolled the ribbon in a random manner, and stuffed it into his trouser bag.

If he looked carefully, he would find that there was a circle of inscriptions engraved on the medal [Pro Patria], meaning [for the motherland]...

On the battlefield, everything is appropriate.

After the simple award ceremony, Seckler left Lieutenant Colonel Jeska for an interview alone.

Andre, who was driven out of the team, ran to the wall three steps and two steps. In the northwest prism, he found Winters.

Another round of siege was repelled, and corpses were everywhere outside the walls, and the Heds were reorganizing two hundred meters away - they now knew that the defenders had their solid bullets had been exhausted, so they were unscrupulous.

Bud led some soldiers into the trench quietly and was dragging the bodies to the river.

Winters is urging musketeers to take this opportunity to clean the chamber.

The musketeers were so tired that they didn't even want to lift a finger. Even with the centurion's supervision, they were still slow.

"Where is the medal?" Andre asked in surprise when he saw that there was nothing under Winters' neck.

Winters smiled bitterly, and he knocked on his helmet on his head: "There are so many archers outside the city, aren't you looking for death if you wear such a conspicuous thing? I even replaced the officer's helmet."

"show me."

Winters took out the silver seal from his pocket and threw it to Andre.

"Wow! It's still a big cross!" Andre couldn't put it down, his tone was extremely regretful: "Why didn't I go with me?"

"Don't mention it! Mason led the wrong way and almost brought us into the Hurds's nest. Fortunately, the Terdun tribe suddenly came out, otherwise it would be different whether we could escape without any hesitation."

"You've got two pieces, right?" Andre's mind was completely out of Winters' words.

Winters was puzzled: "Where did the two pieces come from?"

"The victory seal on Akei Island." Andre added: "Although I am keeping it for you now."

Winters snorted lightly, not answering the sentence.

"It's really good!" Andre reluctantly returned the sword chapter to Winters: "It looks good!"

"If you want it, I'll go back and ask my uncle for a hundred of you! I have something to ask you." Winters pulled Andre to a secluded place in the corner: "What is Seckler doing? What are the reinforcements?!"

When Winters questioned Andre, Lieutenant Colonel Jeska was also suffering from the storm of the general.

Seeing the expressionless appearance of the one-eyed Lieutenant Colonel, Sekler was so angry that he was not angry.

The Paratu army had only killing, killing and more killing strategies for the Hed tribes.

Late the night before yesterday, the Palatu army used tunnel blasting tactics to attack Bianli. The Bianli defenders set fire to the city.

Yesterday morning, the North Bank camp was attacked and the siege was stopped. The Jieshika Brigade stationed the Beiqiao Fortress.

When Sekler and Alpad learned that Hed reinforcements were attacking Beizhai, they were not panicked.

The most troublesome thing about the Hed tribes was never head-on. They wanted to fill the gaps with their lives, but the two generals couldn't help them.

The Beizhai blocked the entry and exit of Bianli City in the north. If the Heds wanted to rescue the siege, they had to conquer it.

Therefore, Sekler used six brigades of troops to support Beizhai, intending to use Beizhai as bait to catch Hed's reinforcements and annihilate them in one fell swoop.

As a result, the Seckler tribe encountered a hiding halfway through the road - unexpectedly, it was reasonable that the Heds were also fishing.

They used Beizhai as bait to lure Palatu's main force to attack and attack the aid of the points.

The plan has changed, but the situation is still controllable for Sekler, but technical adjustments are needed.

Whether it is using Beizhai as bait or his six brigades as bait, there is no difference as long as the strategic purpose is achieved.

By interrogating the prisoners, Sekler had roughly learned that the Heard reinforcements in front of him were actually composed of two parts.

The Hed army, which was besieging Beizhai, was led by the uncle and younger brother of the chief of Chihe tribe, Yasin, and can be regarded as the peripheral forces of the Chihe tribe.

The Hudd's army was the Terdun tribe, led by the leader of the fire-growing man himself.

In the past, whenever there was a war, the tribes of Hed not only refused to save them, but also happily annexed the tribes that were defeated by the Palatus people.

No one knew how Yasin used to convince the Terdun troops to send troops, but it seemed that the fire-growing people were determined to fight a battle with the Palatus.

But it doesn't matter, with the combat power of the Paratu army, I can still deal with it.

Unlike General Alpad, who is brave, has a passionate personality, and is always passionate, Sekler is a master of strategy. He is calm, cautious, and prefers to rely on meticulous pre-planning to win.

But the plan never changes quickly. Who would have thought that just last night, an inconspicuous pawn on the chessboard suddenly walked to a position beyond everyone's expectations.

Now the Terdun team is attacking the Jeska team like crazy, leaving the six brigades of Sekler aside.

The Heds' troops were dispersed as a result, and the Chihe tribe was feinting the Beizhai, while the Terdun tribe was attacking the bridgehead.

Isn’t it a good thing for the enemy to divide the troops?

If the bad one is bad, the forces of the Paratu army are also scattered.

Bridgehead - Sekler's tribe - Beizhai, these three camps are distributed on the north shore and look like a long snake.
