"Surprise attack... Huming city?"

A knight asked in an incredulous tone.

"Yes, raiding Huming city!" Iser replied with unquestionable firmness.

Everyone in the tent, except Ethel and Albert, looked at the map on the long table with a look of shock and amazement.

To be exact, they are all looking at the huge square marked "Huming city" that Iser is pointing to on the map.

People with a little common sense know how Huming city exists for the northern defense system of the Lorraine empire.

The general headquarters of the northern defense line of the Lorraine empire is located in Huming city!

The headquarters of the northern defense line of the Lorraine empire was in Huming City, just as pandragon was the capital of the britannian Empire, which was a matter of common sense.

As the establishment point of the general headquarters, it is naturally impossible for Huming city to be located at the forefront of the northern part of the Lorraine Empire, and Huming city is located behind each stronghold of the northern defense line of the Lorraine empire.

After hearing Iser's decision of "raiding Huming city", several older knights in the military tent immediately frowned, lowered their heads and looked at the map carefully.

These knights, in terms of combat experience, are among the best of all knights in the account.

So after hearing Iser's shocking decision, these older knights were the fastest to recover from their amazement.

Before long, a middle-aged knight with half white hair and Beard said to Ethel in a tentative tone:

"Commander... Do you mean... To use cavalry for a long-distance attack?!"

Although the middle-aged Knight's sentence is an interrogative sentence, the tone is an affirmative sentence.

Because according to his judgment, if we want to directly raid the Huming city behind the northern defense line of the Lorraine Empire, the only way we can use is to use cavalry for long-distance attack.

After hearing the middle-aged Knight's inquiry, Iser nodded with satisfaction and said:

"Yes, I'm just going to use cavalry for a long-distance attack!"

Having said that, Ethel took a small stick from one side, fell on the long table and told the people in the tent about his general strategy.

"The northern defense line of the Lorraine Empire looks very large and complex, but only by attacking their four important strongholds, this huge defense line of the Lorraine empire will collapse by itself."

"These four important strongholds are 'Zenger city', 'Anton city', 'alchi city', and 'Huming city', the general headquarters located in the rear of the northern defense line."

Ethel said as he poked four squares on the map with his small stick.

All the knights in the military tent listened carefully, and even dared not blink or breathe too much.

And Iser's explanation continues:

"The goal of our 'Spring Awakening' offensive is to completely destroy the northern defense system of the Lorraine empire. As long as we attack these four cities, the northern defense system of the Lorraine empire will collapse by itself. "

"So! Attacking these four cities is the goal of our battle! "

"If our 150000 troops come forward and attack, even if we double our number, we can't attack these four cities."

"So I decided to take a long-distance attack! Send an elite cavalry team to bypass all the strongholds of the northern defense line of the Lorraine Empire and directly attack the general headquarters of the northern defense line in the rear - Huming city! Directly paralyze the command system of the northern defense line of the Lorraine Empire and make all strongholds of the northern defense line lose their 'brains'! "

As soon as Ethel's words fell, everyone in the military tent couldn't help swallowing saliva.

Ethel's plan sounds appalling! Directly bypass all enemy strongholds and attack the city behind the enemy!

"Therefore, the general strategy of this' Spring Awakening 'offensive, in a word, is to raid the enemy's general headquarters, Huming City, paralyze the enemy's command system, and then break down the three strongholds of Zenger City, Anton city and alchi city one by one, and then end the operation."

"It's so simple, but it's also so difficult."

"So! I now announce the specific combat mission! "

Ethel straightened his waist as he spoke.

When hearing the announcement of the combat mission, all the knights in the military tent immediately straightened their backs and looked at Iser seriously.

"The surprise attack on Huming city is the first and most important battle of the 'spring wake up' offensive! If this war fails, there will be no follow-up war. "

"Therefore, this is such an important task that I decided to leave it to the deputy commander, Albert Evans! Albert, I've given you the best 6000 cavalry in the army! "

"Early tomorrow morning, I will also mobilize the whole army to the south. When the spies of the Luolin Empire lurking around see the trend of our army, they will find that the real goal of our 'spring wake up' offensive is the Luolin empire."

"In other words, the moment our army goes south early tomorrow morning, it will be the moment when the spies of the Lorraine Empire detect that they have been cheated by us."

"According to the information provided by us, it takes about five days for the spies of the Lorraine Empire lurking around kalannia to transmit the information back to the general headquarters in Huming city."

"It's March 7. In the morning of March 8 tomorrow, the spies of the Rowling empire will notice that they have been cheated, and then send the information back to the general headquarters of Huming city. Huming city will receive the information from the spies on March 13."

"So we should make good use of this time difference! Albert, you and the 6000 cavalry must rush to Huming city before they receive the information! "

"If Hu Mingcheng gets the information first, they are likely to put away their lax attitude and strengthen their defense. At that time, Hu Mingcheng will not attack so easily!"

"So, Albert, the 6000 cavalry I gave you, a total of 18000 horses! 3 horses per person, take turns! The distance from kalanya to Huming city is about 800 Li. "

"Albert, when the meeting is over, you will set out immediately! Leave kalanya at night and don't let the spies lurking around kalanya notice! "

"You must finish the 800 mile distance in 4 days! On the evening of March 12, be sure to arrive at the foot of Huming city! Before Hu Ming City receives the information that we cheated, take advantage of the night to attack Hu Ming City first! "

After hearing Ethel's words, Albert smiled bitterly and said, "can you run 800 miles in four days... That is to say, you have to run 200 miles a day... It's a real 'high-speed, long-distance attack'."

After hearing Albert's joking words, Ethel turned up his mouth slightly and said:

"One cavalry and three horses can reach this speed if they change in turn. Yes? Can't you? "

"Oh, commander Iser, are you kidding me?"

After saying that, Albert straightened his waist, touched his heel, gave a standard military salute, and then Lang said:

"I assure you - on the night of March 12, our britannian flag will float on the wall of Huming city!"
