After listening to Rose Marquis's words, Lei Xiao nodded slightly and motioned for the other party to continue speaking.

"Lord, although we have nine cities in total within our sphere of influence: Kongqing Town, Mailan Town, Magnet Town, Red Arrow Town, Shuiyue City, Fenglong City, Fanyin City, Shanjing Principality, and the following Lanleng Castle. , the overall strength is quite good, and the total strength is close to 40,000."

I saw Rose Marquis bowing slightly and saying with a stern expression: "However, compared with the eldest prince and the second prince whose power has been clearly demonstrated in the eastern region of Cold Flame, they have an extremely fatal disadvantage."

"Tell me."

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao first took a sip of steaming fragrant tea, then put down the tea cup and said again.

"That's because our forces are too scattered, and we can't mobilize our forces without the other party noticing, and then take the initiative to start a large-scale battle."

Nodding to Lei Xiao, Marquis Rose still maintained a respectful posture and responded: "As for the south of the territory in the Demonic Shadow Forest, the eastern area of ​​​​Lengyan is close to the border battlefield, with Songluo City as the center. The eldest prince's faction.

Still in the west of the territory in the Demonic Forest, in the center of the eastern area of ​​​​Lengyan, the Second Prince's faction centered on Iron Gate Castle. The power of both of them is very concentrated, and they can easily in a short time. Assemble a huge army. "

"The Marquis de Rose is right, it is true."

Hearing this, Bert, who was also extremely tall, had a look of approval on his wrinkled old face.

Then he said thoughtfully: "The territory located in the Demon Shadow Forest is only Kongqing Town due west on the other side of the river, Magnet Town due north of Kongqing Town under the Baibu Mountains, and Mailan due south of Kongqing Town." The town, a total of three cities, forms a defensive barrier.”

Gently rubbing his chin, Bert continued: "The total number of defenders in the three cities is only close to 10,000 people. This is compared with the two princes who have at least 60,000 or more." Compared with the military strength, it is indeed a bit stretched."

"Senior Bert is right. If you include Red Arrow Town, which is located southeast of Mailan Town, there are at most four cities."

On the other side, a pensive expression also appeared on Orange's fair face, and he added: "However, there are only a mercenary team of 2,000 people in Red Arrow Town now, headed by Donna.

In the absence of formal collaborative combat training, the defense of the city is acceptable, but if they attack head-on on the battlefield, their combat effectiveness will probably be far inferior to that of the garrison troops in each city. "

"What the two kingdom generals said is absolutely true."

Rose Marquis, who was standing respectfully next to Lei Xiao, added: "However, the situation is not that bad. After all, the territory located in the Shadow Forest also has 19 squadrons of elite second-level soldiers directly under the lord."

Holding the orchid and smiling, Marquis Rose continued: "Moreover, there are two tribes that have surrendered to the lord, and they also have a total of nine second-level elite squadrons with considerable strength."

"In addition to the three cities of Kongqing Town, Magnet Town, and Mailan Town, there are a total of 9 second-level elite squadrons newly trained by the Lord, and the second-level Princess Guards brought by Her Royal Highness Princess 2.

This second-level elite force of nearly 4,000 people, plus 10,000 ordinary garrison troops, and the main powerful men under the lord, are enough to protect the territory without worries when facing the full attack of a certain prince. "

After finishing speaking, Marquis Rose bowed and gave Lei Xiao a cup of hot tea, and then said: "Of course, this is the worst case scenario. After all, so far, no opponent knows the specific location and strength of the territory.

The most important thing is that in the eyes of our opponents, we only have one city, Kongqing Town, and on the surface we only have more than 3,000 ordinary defenders.

What our opponents cannot see is exactly how we can win by surprise. "

After a pause, Marquis Rose said to Lei Xiao again: "Lord, even so, if the eldest prince and the second prince attack from both sides, the situation will undoubtedly be critical.

This is the biggest disadvantage mentioned by my subordinate just now. After all, apart from the four cities mentioned above, including the subordinate Blue Cold Castle, the other five cities are far away from the territory and cannot do anything. to timely reinforcements. "

"That's what I've been worried about."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly and frowned slightly, while picking up the exquisite white porcelain tea cup again.

While continuing: "At the beginning, I didn't expect that the power of the eldest prince and the second prince would be so deeply rooted in the eastern region of Lengyan, where the mountains are high and the emperor is far away. I have to say that it is indeed quite troublesome. "

Taking a sip of the steaming fragrant tea, Lei Xiao smiled slightly again and said: "However, since Marquis Rose has said this, there must be a solution, right?"

"That's right, Lord Lord, I happen to have a plan here that can turn this disadvantage into an advantage, or it may be our next course of action."

On the other side, Rose Marquis smiled and bowed slightly.

"Very good. I just happened to think of a good solution. Let's each do a simple deduction and see if each other's answers are consistent."

Having said this, Lei Xiao also smiled lightly, and then ordered the subordinates around him to move the two exquisite mahogany square tables to the left and right in front of him.

Next, Lei Xiao put down his tea cup and walked straight to a table. With a wave of his hand, a row of blue soldiers and a row of red soldiers appeared on the square table.

These were all gifts given by Bai Lao when Lei Xiao left the mountain fortress. There were thousands of soldiers of different colors and shapes and various markers.

Lei Xiao first picked up a blue soldier and placed it slightly lower in the upper right corner of the table.

Immediately afterwards, four more blue soldiers were placed in front of the first soldier in a vertical column.

Seeing this scene, all the subordinates on the side nodded thoughtfully.

Needless to say, what this represents is naturally the territory located in the forest, and from top to bottom are the four cities of Magnet Town, Kongqing Town, Mailan Town, and Red Arrow Town.

Next, Lei Xiao first placed ten red soldiers in a cluster below the blue soldiers representing Red Arrow Town.

Another ten red soldiers were placed, also in a cluster, to the left of their blue soldiers, near the middle of the table.

Therefore, surrounded by two groups of red soldiers at the bottom and left, the only five blue soldiers were obviously quite weak.

"Those two clusters of red soldiers represent the power of the eldest prince and the second prince, right?"

Staring at the square table that had turned into a simple sand table, Yi Chaoyan blinked his signature big eyes, tilted his head and asked.

"That's right, you girl has made quite a lot of progress."

With a faint smile, Lei Xiao picked up another five blue soldiers representing his own city and distributed them in various corners of the square table.

Among them, the one in the lower right corner of the square table represents Shanjing Principality, the one slightly closer to the left of the second prince's power represents Fanyin City, and the two upper and lower ones on the far left side of the table represent the nearby Shuiyue City and Fenglong City. .

The last one, a little further to the left of the great prince's forces, naturally represents the Blue Cold Castle where everyone is currently located.

All in all, just like what Rose Marquis said.

The other five cities are scattered all over the table. Except for the adjacent Shuiyue City and Fenglong City, the others are far apart. It can be said that they form a sharp contrast with the dense power of the two princes.

"The lord is indeed extraordinary. It only took a few seconds to clearly display the distribution of enemy and friend situations in the entire eastern region of Leng Yan."

When Lei Xiao's arrangements were completed, Marquis Rose's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but flatter him sincerely.

"Okay, let's arrange that table in the same way."

Smiling slightly, Lei Xiao waved his hand again, and the same number of red and blue soldiers appeared on another table.

"As ordered, Lord Lord, my subordinates will do it now."

After hearing this, Rose Marquis immediately came to another table and began to make arrangements.

After a while, the simple sand tables on the two tables were exactly the same. Lei Xiao first picked up a blue soldier that was idle on the table.

Then, facing another table, the Marquis of Rose, who was also holding an idle blue soldier, said: "Okay, let us each implement our response plans on this table first. .”

"As you command, Lord."

Bowing slightly to Lei Xiao, Rose Marquis immediately started to take action, while Lei Xiao also started to make arrangements.

In this way, it didn't take long for Lei Xiao and Rose Marquis to complete the next action deployment.

In front of Lei Xiao, I saw a simple sand table that had been redeployed.

The two princely forces that were originally surrounded by the general's territory and the four own cities have been surrounded by a new group of blue soldiers, combined with other blue soldiers that were originally extremely scattered, to form a larger encirclement. Tightly wrapped in it.

The layout of the desktop on Rose Marquis' side is almost exactly the same as that of Lei Xiao. They have changed from the original small encirclement to a new situation of a large trap and a small circle.

Seeing this scene, the other subordinates nodded thoughtfully.

At this point, the answer is naturally very obvious.

"Lord, you are truly extraordinary, just like you have seen with your heroes..."

At this point, Rose Marquis, who felt that his words were a bit imprecise, quickly changed his words and said: "No, it is undoubtedly my greatest honor for you to be able to think of being with the lord!"

"If that's the case, then it's up to you to plan our next actions and briefly explain them."

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao said to the enchanting man with a look of reverence on his face.

"I understand, Lord."

After clearing his throat slightly, Rose Marquis took light cat steps and came to the table where Lei Xiao was sitting again.

Then he said to the subordinates around him: "Dear colleagues, the Lord's next plan is actually very simple. That is to occupy the neutral city on the periphery, so that the inside and outside can bloom at the same time, and the forces of the two princes will be sandwiched in the middle!"

Having said this, Rose Marquis stretched out his orchid finger and pointed at the two newly placed blue soldiers at the upper edge of the square table.

What they represent there are two cities under the Baibu Mountains that we have not yet taken under our control.

Then, Marquis Rose continued: "Especially under the Baibu Mountains, the two cities of Luolong and Gelin still seem to be neutral. As long as we occupy these two cities, plus the cities already in our hands, Fanyin City.

Once the second prince sends troops to attack the territory, as long as the elites of these three cities are deployed, whether it is attacking from the rear, making it difficult for the opponent to look at each other, or taking advantage of the emptiness in the opponent's city to attack the city and seize territory, they will give the opponent a fatal blow! "

Nodding to the other main subordinates, Rose Marquis smiled again and said: "And those who can backstab the great prince's forces are naturally part of the defenders of the Mountain Castle Fortress and the soldiers of the Shanjing Principality."

"Qing Shuanghua, you mean General Bai's mountain fortress?"

Hearing the sound, Ariel couldn't help but have a look of doubt on her face.

However, when she looked at the location of the mountain fortress, she found that there was indeed a blue soldier with his back swung up.

"Go back to your highness, Princess, and read a book. That's exactly what it is."

Picking up the blue soldier that Ariel was looking at with his orchid fingers, Rose Marquis played with it in his hand and explained: "Of course, what the lord and I are referring to is not Bai Lao's fortress army.

It is conceivable that with Bai Lao still loyal to the old king and the important task of guarding the border fortress, it is naturally unrealistic for him to send troops to backstab the eldest prince's faction. "

Smiling, Marquis Rose continued: "However, among the other 20,000 defenders, many are from the defenders of the city we control. This part of the force is undoubtedly loyal to us."

"In addition, the lord and the princess are kind to General Bai. Even if General Bai cannot take action personally, there is still no problem in turning a blind eye. If necessary, this also applies to General Bai." Let the elite troops from Jing Duchy come in."

After finishing speaking, Rose Marquis used his orchid finger again to gently return the blue soldier to his original position.

"So that's it. Before this, the First Prince's faction did not send troops to reinforce the Mountain Fort Fortress. Instead, they used the Mountain Fort Fortress as a tool to weaken the Holy Night Army, even if they allowed it to fall and the entire army to be annihilated."

Nodding slightly, Ariel's starry eyes flickered, and she said thoughtfully: "From this, with Old General Bai's clear love-hate character, it is indeed not impossible to do this."

"In addition, Fenglong and Shuiyue Cities, although they are the farthest apart and are located on the edge of the eastern region of Lengyan, in a sense, they have the greatest effect."

At this time, Marquis Rose pointed to the leftmost area of ​​the square table and smiled mysteriously again.
