"Sir, the bandits are only ten kilometers away from us." A personal soldier who served as the scout reported to Cons.

"What kind of troops do the other side? Are there any formations in the march?" Ida asked.

The personal soldiers shook their heads and said, "They are all infantry, there are no formations, and they are rushing towards them."

Ida was stunned when she heard this, looked at Cons, waiting for his decision.

At this time, Carlo said, "This group of robbers did not deliberately confuse us, but they were really a group of stupid mobs."

"Sir, didn't we know that before we sent troops, they all had military training? Then they set up such a chaotic formation, to confuse us." Ida hurriedly reminded him when he heard this.

Cons nodded, "That's right, no matter whether they confuse us or not, we should treat them as powerful enemies. Call the chiefs at all levels and we should study the countermeasures carefully."

"I think we should wait and hide our troops in the surrounding forests. When the bandits pass, we will destroy them in one fell swoop." Gna, the leader of the Big Sword Team, pointed to the woods in the distance and said.

The team leader of the spearman team said suspiciously: "Although this method is good, will the bandits pass through the woods? I think it is better to fight head-on. I don't believe that this 5,000 people cannot destroy the 4,000 mob."

"Only by surprise wins, we can effectively eliminate the enemy and reduce our own losses. We cannot engage in any frontal attack to consume power, because we are not only facing bandits, but also the city and territory who intend to be independent in the entire region." Carlo reminded seriously.

Only then did the team leaders realize that the real enemy was not the bandits, but the city lords with unknown strength.

One of my five thousand people sacrificed is less than one. It is too precious to be in this place where enemies and friends are inseparable. This is a sure thing that every war will minimize your casualties and increase the casualties of the enemy to the maximum.

These civilian officers began to worry about how to achieve this goal.

Seeing that Cons hadn't spoken and didn't know what he was thinking, I asked curiously: "Sir, what are you thinking?"

"I was wondering, if the enemy were to attack us. Even if they wanted us to underestimate them, I think some people with some wisdom would not do this.

"So what kind of reliance do they have?" Cons said in distress. If he did not understand the enemy's intelligence, his side would suffer major losses during the war.

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, yes, who would be so idiotful to attack 15,000 people with four thousand people? He just heard the bandits of four thousand people, became careless, thinking that victory must belong to him, and they all began to consider how to minimize their casualties.

Ida heard this and said to himself, "Did they have ambush?" But he immediately denied this idea, "This is impossible. Scouts were sent around to investigate, and no other enemies were found."

Carlo saw Cons's wry smile and shook his head. Although he didn't know what Cons was thinking, a commander was too cautious and sometimes it was not very good. So he reminded him: "Sir, the enemies around us can be sure that there are only those four thousand people, so there is no need to think so much.

"Even if the enemy really has ambush, in order to avoid fighting with two groups of enemies at the same time, we must first eliminate the bandits in front of us with all our might. Even if there is an ambush by the enemy, we can win the counterattack."

When Cons heard this, he was shocked. It was sometimes not good to be cautious. Now instead of caring about the enemy's abnormal behavior and guessing the enemy's intentions, it is better to consider how to eliminate them in one fell swoop. Then even if they have any conspiracy, they will hesitate after the sudden reduction of 4,000 troops of troops?

Thinking of this, Cons suddenly stood up and said, "Now don't care whether the enemy has ambush or not. Our mission is to destroy that group of enemies in the shortest time! Even if the enemy has any conspiracy, we can still take action to deal with it!"

When Cons stood up, the generals also stood up. When Cons said something, everyone nodded violently.

Now considering that the enemy you don’t know will only be distracted, or it will be better to deal with the enemy in front of you.

After some discussion, Cons and the others decided to combine a head-on decisive battle with waiting for the battle.

After the meeting, the army headed to the woods in the distance. At this time, the bandits were only five kilometers away from them.

Jante is not an idiot, so when he allowed the troops to move forward quickly without any organization, he also sent scout troops. He did not believe that the enemy would be too stupid to send people to investigate the whereabouts of the bandits.

At this time, the scout sent forward to investigate had not heard back for a long time. He did not feel heartbroken for the loss of several subordinates, but was extremely excited.

When the vanguard reported that the suspicious figure was surveillance around, he ordered the troops to run and advance. From these things, he judged that the enemy had discovered himself. Of course, he continued to send scouts to inquire about the news.

"King, will we move forward in such a chaotic manner..." the confidant beside him couldn't help but remind him worriedly.

"Hehe, the enemy must have investigated our chaotic formation. Seeing this, they will definitely think that the robbers are robbers, a group of mobs. When they are relieved, as long as I wave the flag, my brothers will immediately let them taste the robbers' power!"

Jant said confidently and excitedly, his excitement made the knife mark on his face even more prominent.

"King, although the enemy may be confused by us, they have 15,000 people, and we are only 4,000 people..." The confidant was still worried.

"Hehe, do you think I'm really stupid enough to believe that our four thousand people can destroy 15,000 troops? The idiot of the military advisor really thinks I believe what he said."

Zhante continued with a cunning smile: "Last time, nearly 10,000 people in the Qihong Kingdom were wiped out. Do you think the princess in the royal city is an idiot? She must know that the city lord in this area has a strange intention and that our troops are no less powerful than rumors.

"If it were you, would you send a unit composed of five thousand new soldiers and eight thousand baggage soldiers under such circumstances? So the commanders and soldiers under this time must be elite soldiers."

The confidant might have known that his king was not as reckless as he usually showed, so he didn't look surprised when he heard this, but just asked strangely: "Why is the king still..." When he said this confidant suddenly thought of something, and showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

Seeing that his subordinates understood the meaning of doing this, Jant nodded in satisfaction: "Yes, since the enemy's commander knew that the lords in this area were ill-behaved, of course he would be wary of them.

"After they obtain our intelligence, they will definitely be proud of their combat effectiveness and beware of opening a city to block their backs, so they will only send troops with almost the same force as us to destroy us.

"And even if they see through our plan to confuse them, there is no need to be afraid. Our combat ability is not good-looking."

The confidant hurriedly praised Jant: "The king is wise, and the king's wisdom is invincible in the world."

"Haha, I'm just thinking about things from the standpoint of the enemy's chief general. The military advisor is still waiting to see me make a fool of me. No one would have thought that our rude heart is very delicate. Ah hahaha!" Zhan Te laughed proudly.

He had already imagined the look that appeared on the military advisor's eyelid after he took down the command of the alliance.

"King, the enemy troops were found one kilometer ahead, with a population of about 5,000. Now we have set up a square formation to prepare to fight us head-on." A scout who had discovered the information ran back to report.

"Haha, very good, what kind of troops are they?" Jant asked with a smile.

Although he knew that the enemy had fallen into his own plan, he still had to figure out the enemy's background, which would help him decide on the method of fighting.

"There are big swordsmen in front and spearmen in back." The scout hurriedly said, and this information could be known from a distance.

When Jant heard this, he was stunned for a moment, but then he hurriedly said, "The enemy is really a fool. How could he put the spearmen in the back formation? Pass the order down and continue to maintain the chaotic formation. After three hundred steps away from the enemy, he began to form a conical formation. The spearmen opened the way, and the archers followed closely behind the Great Sword Warriors!" Jant ordered with a bold and arrogant order.

He did not forget the words that the enemy was an elite soldier. He was because the enemy had been trapped and formed a head-on formation, and proudly believed that the enemy underestimated him and thought that the enemy believed that any battle formation could defeat bandits without formation.

At the same time, Jant also found the enemy's traces and did not find the reconnaissance troops he sent. Except for the scouts in front who ran back to report, no one from other directions came back.

As the troops advanced, Jant could already see the phalanx troops arranged in front of a forest. Seeing the phalanx, Jant was really stunned for a moment because he found that the other party's formation was very strange.

The two big swords were closely arranged, and the distance between them and the other big swords was separated by two people. Such big swords were arranged in five or six rows.

In the gap between the big swords and weapons, you can see the spearmen behind them. They were also standing tightly together in units of two people, with a distance between them also vacant.

After looking at it, Janter saw his eyebrows and said, "Haha, it seems that the enemy has set up this formation with scheming. The gap that was free will definitely allow the spearmen to advance and become the vanguard." Janter knew that the enemy was not as stupid as he imagined, so he couldn't help but put down the stone in his heart.

Just now, he heard the enemy put the big swordsman in front of him. Although he didn't say anything, he was still a little worried, but now this concern has disappeared.

Although I suspect there may be ambushes hidden in the woods, as long as I disrupt the opponent's formation, drive the chaotic enemy into the forest, and then set fire to solve all problems.

The bandits who had no formation began to change as they got closer and closer to the troops.

The bandits running around slowly began to gather. In just a short while, a conical formation was formed. The top of the pyramid at the front was composed of bandits holding spears. The tower body was an archer who was preparing to pull the bow and aim, and the bottom of the tower was a big sword weapon who was holding a sword and guarding.

Standing at the front of the formation, Carlo couldn't help but sigh when he saw this change: "Awesome, he can form a formation from the chaotic state in an instant. It seems that it is a group of troops with strict training.

"The sprinting power of the spearmen in front can easily tear open the formation to create a crack. The archers in the middle can continuously expand the tear open crack. The big swordsman that followed will show the strongest ability in melee combat while the enemy is in chaos.

"This formation cannot be used even by ordinary regular troops. This robber leader really has a trick. But... it's a pity."

Seeing the enemy rushing into a distance of 100 steps, Carlo raised his hand and shouted, "Bow!"

With Carlo's voice, he saw an incredible scene at the coming enemy. The first row of big sword soldiers turned around quickly, and two, two ran from the empty space left between them to the rear. The second row of big sword soldiers actually took the big sword back into the scabbard.

This is not surprising. What surprised the robbers even more was that the big sword soldiers who took out a bow from behind, not a long bow, but a crossbow!

Bow and crossbow! After seeing what it was, the robbers with good eyes began to sweat. They saw the archers pull out arrows from the scabbards next to their waists and start to lift the bow and aim.
Chapter completed!
