In the command headquarters of the second field army in the province of Yunzhong, the staff and counselors came in and out, each with a dignified expression.
Surrounded by a group of elite guard soldiers, Li Lang, the Lord of the Town, quickly stepped up the steps in front of the gate of the headquarters.
"I have seen the leader of the legion!"
The straight sentry standing like a javelin hastily stood up and saluted.
If it was on a normal day, Li Lang, the amiable Zhen Guogong, would definitely return the gift.
But now Li Lang didn't seem to notice the sentry's military salute, and quickly entered the compound of the command headquarters.
The staff, soldiers and counselors along the way all turned sideways to give way when they saw Li Lang's arrival, and saluted continuously.
"I have seen the leader of the legion¡ª"
After hearing the voice in the compound, Pang Biao, the deputy head of the Second Field Army, led a group of generals to welcome him out.
"What's the situation now?"
After Li Lang waved his hand, he turned his attention to Pang Biao, the deputy head of the army with a dignified face.
"We just got the news that Wu Sen and the others were surrounded by cathars in a place called Ama Town near Sirius City."
"Current intelligence shows that they are surrounded by Holy See cathars Blood Moon Knights and Scythe Knights."
Pang Biao, deputy head of the army, led Li Lang into the official hall, and at the same time reported the latest situation.
"Aren't the Blood Moon Knights and Scythe Knights stationed in Saint Thunder City? Why did they suddenly go to Sirius City?" Li Lang frowned.
Pang Biao guessed: "Master Legion, I suspect that the news leaked when Wu Sen and the others dispatched, causing the enemy to set up an ambush in advance."
"You mean that there are spies in our headquarters?" Li Lang's expression also sank.
"It's not impossible." Pang Biao said.
If there were spies in their headquarters, Li Lang was also aware of the seriousness of the problem.
It also means that all their military operations and defenses are controlled by the enemy.
Once the enemy has plans, they will appear very passive, which makes Li Lang's heart very heavy.
"Of course, this is only one possibility. Another possibility is that this time the Holy See took the initiative to attack us, and then induced us to retaliate. Then they set up traps to try to destroy our retaliatory army. This was premeditated by them."
Seeing Li Lang's unsightly complexion, Pang Biao, the deputy army commander, also mentioned another possibility.
"The Holy See is very hostile to us. If they knew about our defenses, they probably would have launched a surprise attack on us long ago, and it wouldn't be so troublesome."
"So I think there should be no spies in our high command, but let the intelligence and investigation institute's hidden troubles be sorted out, not afraid of 10,000, just in case." Li Lang ordered.
"I am more inclined that this is a premeditated action by them."
Li Lang looked around the crowd and said: "The most urgent task now is to rescue Wu Sen and the others. Time is running out, and we must come up with a proper solution as soon as possible."
"There are Scythe Knights and Blood Moon Knights deployed around Ama Town. If we want to rescue Wu Sen and the others, it will not be easy." Pang Biao, deputy head of the army, said solemnly.
"Now we only have two cavalry banner battalions, and the total strength of them is no more than ten thousand."
"But the Blood Moon Knights and Scythe Knights are their ace cavalry units. The total strength of the two knights exceeds 30,000."
"If we go to the rescue, maybe we will not only fail to rescue the besieged Wu Sen and the others, but also bring in the cavalry from our other two banner battalions."
Li Lang, head of the legion, naturally knew what Pang Biao said, that is, the number of cavalry in their field second legion was indeed too small.
After all, their Second Field Army Corps performed the task of reclamation and frontier defense, and most of their troops were infantry units.
The current two cavalry banner battalions were specially mobilized and formed by the imperial court considering the actual situation of their border defense.
However, when these two cavalry flag battalions faced the large-scale cavalry of the Holy See, they still seemed insufficient.
"Besides, once we cross the border to rescue, we will be regarded as an invasion by the Holy See, and it is likely to lead to a large-scale war between the two countries. This consequence must be taken into account." Deputy Army Chief Pang Biao reminded.
At the beginning, their village and fortress were attacked by cathars.?It is also disguised as a horse bandit.
And when Wu Sen and the others went to take revenge, they also pretended to be horse bandits, but they didn't expect to fall into a tight siege.
Now Li Lang and the others want to rescue them. Once a large-scale army crosses the border and enters the territory of the Holy See, the public opinion will inevitably be extremely unfavorable to them.
Li Lang walked to the side of the sand table, pointed to the situation of the enemy and us on the sand table, and said to the generals.
"The Holy See has been acting frequently in the border area recently, not only sending people disguised as horse bandits to attack our forts and villages, but their patrols are also constantly insulting and provoking our patrols."
"And in recent months, they have been transporting materials and troops to the border area on a large scale. Now the garrison in Saint Lei City has reached 150,000 people, and it is still increasing."
"I think that the Holy See is brooding over the previous defeat, so it has been looking for an opportunity to retaliate against us. Now it is just a small fight. Once their troops and materials are assembled, they will definitely launch a large-scale attack on us. attack."
After hearing the analysis of Li Lang, the head of the army, everyone nodded, thinking that what he said made sense.
"Hanhai has already taken action in the direction of my Baima Pass, and the Holy See is also dispatching troops on a large scale. Our situation will become more and more unfavorable." Li Lang said solemnly.
"This time Wu Sen and the others were besieged. If we only sent cavalry to rescue them, we might not be able to rescue them, but would be eaten instead."
"So what I mean is, since simply sending cavalry can't rescue them, it is better to dispatch all of them and take advantage of the trend to destroy the Blood Moon Knights and Scythe Knights of the Holy See. If possible, send them out of the Holy Thunder City The army will also eat them all!" Li Lang raised his voice.
"Hiss!"
After hearing Li Lang's words, everyone gasped, because Li Lang's plan was too crazy.
"Think twice, Lord Commander, if we take such risks, it is very likely to trigger a large-scale war." Deputy Commander Pang Biao persuaded.
"Now the church guards of the Holy See have threatened us. If we don't eradicate them, we will have trouble sleeping and eating. Maybe they will rush over at any time."
"As long as we wipe out the garrisons they have assembled in the border areas, then even if they want to take revenge, they still need to dispatch troops, and it will take time."
"Besides, we will be the victors at that time. Even if they want revenge, they have to weigh whether they can beat us."
"But if we take the initiative to attack, the public opinion will be against us, and we will be criticized by many people, and we will become the target of public criticism."
"What are you afraid of? They can accuse us of taking the initiative to attack. Can't we say that they took the initiative to provoke? They have a mouth, and we also have a mouth. We can refute it."
