In the next few days, I finally learned from the local villagers that the Ao Long Castle had fallen. Although I was mentally prepared, I still didn't expect this sturdy castle to fall so easily.
"If that's the case, we'll truly be a lone army. We'll just be a team that will only decrease in number and not increase in number. The life of a soldier is extremely precious to me.”
I thought to myself.
"Fortunately, this is a land we are familiar with. There are people here who have been ravaged by the Beastmen but have not surrendered. They are full of confidence in the counterattack of the Tyrone Empire and believe that victory will come one day.
In their eyes, all the soldiers in our team are heroes, giving them hope. These simple people provided us with detailed information, which allowed me to clearly see the situation on the battlefield.
Although the beastmen had achieved a great victory, they had also suffered many losses. Facing the endless reinforcements of the human race, they temporarily did not have the strength to continue advancing eastward. They were now defending the Ao Long Castle.
The human forces gathered in Meliya, and a counterattack was about to begin. The old man, Altais III, would not easily admit defeat.
Looking at the overall situation, my not-so-powerful army would definitely be able to create a lot of trouble for those stupid Beastmen here. For example, we could attack their grain transport team and occasionally attack their patrol team...
However, all of this wasn't enough to shake the foundation of the Beastmen. A crazy plan began to form in my mind. As the saying goes,"hit the snake seven inches"
If we can hit the vital points of the beast army, they won't be able to stay in the Ao Long Castle. Then, where was the beastman's seven inches? It should be…
When I told my plan to the generals under me, everyone was stunned. In fact, even I felt that this was a crazy plan, but if it was successful, this would definitely be a battle that would go down in history.
I was deeply tempted by the fruits of victory. Those who achieved great things must have extraordinary strategies. If they wanted to obtain great rewards, they had to bear unimaginable risks.
My plan is to launch a surprise attack on the sunrise City.
It was no wonder that the other generals were shocked. To them, this was an impossible plan.
In the sunrise City, 150,000 orc troops were guarding the place tightly.
It was built according to the standards of the orc army. It was famous for being sturdy. He wondered how the human army had defended it back then. How could it have been broken through so easily? Now it's an obstacle to our attack
Without engineering tools, no amount of troops can break in, let alone a few thousand cavalry who are not suitable for attacking the city.
After the initial shock, my plan was met with intense opposition.
"We are not afraid of death. As members of the Imperial Dragon Knights, we can sacrifice our lives for the Kingdom of Tai Long without hesitation.”
"However, we are not willing to commit suicide. A meaningless death is not in line with the spirit of a knight. "I believe that you must have your reasons for setting up such a plan, Commander Constellation. However, we think that the chances of such a plan succeeding are too low. Please consider it carefully!”
Silence, I began to fall silent.
This kind of reaction was within my expectations. What they said was very reasonable, but if the plan succeeded, it would mean too much to me and the Tai Long Empire.
After Dongfang Yun sent his troops to attack the small town that was used as bait, the orcs had a big problem with their insufficient rations. If they could not destroy Dongfang Yun's cavalry as planned and seize the Ao Long Castle, they would have to retreat to the desert in a month.
After occupying the Ao Long Castle, they obtained a batch of rations and supplies that the human army could not burn when they retreated. They received some replenishment, but a large portion of the rations were still stored in the sunrise City.
This " sunrise City " was no longer just a military fortress. It was a logistics base for the orcs to maintain control over the occupied areas and advance in the future. Its status was similar to the most important city in the east, Meria.
I want to destroy the Orcs 'logistics and supplies, so that they will have no choice but to give up the land they have occupied with great difficulty without fighting.
I knew that if I didn't convince the generals present, my plan would never be able to proceed. I closed my eyes. Everything around me was quiet. The generals were also confused by this strange silence. Their eyes were focused on my face.
I suddenly opened my eyes. I didn't directly explain the military issue. I only asked them one question."Do you believe me? Do you believe that I can create miracles?"
If I said this a month ago, I would have thrown them out. Who do you think you are? Why should I believe you?
However, things were different now. After that battle, I created a legend in the army. I had an unprecedented influence among the lower-ranking officers and soldiers.
With just one sentence, their originally firm gazes wavered. They were shocked by the incomparable domineering aura that I was emitting at this moment.
"My thoughts are just the thoughts of ordinary people. Is the commander of Constellation an ordinary person?”
"Can a normal person take out 30,000 wolf riders? Since the commander of Constellation is confident in doing so, what are we still doubting? We just have to do it. Anyway, our lives were saved by the commander. At most, we'll return our lives to the commander.”
After a moment of silence, their gazes became firm again, but their thoughts had completely changed.
"Commander Constellation, give the order. We all believe in you. You will definitely lead us to obtain the highest honor! Please give us your orders. Whatever you want us to do, we will definitely complete it.”
I thought that I would have to spend a lot of effort to convince them. I didn't expect my influence to be so strong. It's only been a short while, and they're already submissive!
Actually, I still hadn't noticed that I often unconsciously emitted a domineering aura that said," Who in the world can compete with me?" This was also a phenomenon that only appeared after experiencing the calamity of life and death.
Because of that stimulation, an unknown powerful force was awakening in a place deep in my heart. Although it only revealed a little bit of energy, it also caused a qualitative change in my aura.
Of course, I wasn't a reckless fool. According to my analysis, the Orc soldiers would definitely feel proud after the victory, and the defense of the sunrise City in the rear would also relax.
All we need to do is to find the right time to use the high mobility of the cavalry to charge into the city, burn the stored food, and then use the chaos to kill our way out.
It was easy to say, but it was very difficult to implement. Under everyone's advice, each key point had a detailed plan. After that, everyone used the time to prepare nervously.
