Black Iron Crown

Chapter 383 Frant's Guess

After the contract was submitted, the rebels outside the city quickly agreed, and they couldn't wait to have a decisive battle with the judging army.

But Sir Frante didn't think so, because she knew that besides the south, the lords in the west had also rebelled. If she waited for others to continue to delay, then the lords in the west could break through the line of defense, and maybe they could fight all the time. to the imperial capital.

Sir Frant thinks it is not very wise to have an appointment with the enemy while having the advantage of time.

But seeing that all the lords agreed and clamored one after another, Frante didn't say much. If he talked too much, these lords would not only not listen, but would think that they were too cowardly.

For these lords, Frante already had a deep understanding.

At the same time, the light cavalry under Leiner's command also began to cruise around, checking the distribution of the enemy's cases and checking their food storage locations.

Reiner is very confident about his plan.

Cutting off the food and grass of the Liangdao branch is a common tactic used by the Celestial Dynasty, but in this world, Reiner has not seen any records about this tactic.

Tilihan took the cavalry archer and his soldiers back and forth between the enemy's camps, and their footprints were everywhere within a ten-kilometer radius.

Lena sat in the middle of the room, frowning. Two days had passed. The cavalry almost dug three feet into the ground. They searched every place carefully, and they were even shot by the enemy.

But even so, they still haven't found the location of the enemy's food and grass.

"Food and grass are indispensable for an army. It is absolutely impossible to be too far away. If they are too far away, there is no need for them to hoard food and grass like this..." Reiner said looking at Tilihan.

"Increase the scope of the search to 30 kilometers around. Most of the surrounding areas are plains. I don't believe where they can hide the food!"

Reiner made a decision, and Tillihan left the room after saluting.

The rebel camp was already busy.

The sentinels patrolled around the camp, fearing that the anti-rebel forces in the city would launch a surprise attack on them, as was the case with the Grand Duke Mabula.

Listening to the endless sound of grinding weapons, Frant thought carefully in his heart.

"If it's just to inquire about the composition of the troops, there is no need to mobilize the troops like this..." There was a constant sound of horseshoes outside the camp. It was the light cavalry under Leiner's command.

They have been cruising around the rebel camp almost all the time. After the rebel knights attacked, they turned around and retreated. After several times of such pursuit, the rebel knights finally gave up and let the group Light cavalry shuttled back and forth.

"The purpose is not just to detect the strength of the troops... Could it be that their goal is..." Frant looked at the top of the tent.

Suddenly, he stood up from the ground.

"Food and grass?" Frank bit his lower lip lightly.

She was about to rush out of the camp to inform the other lords to be alert, but she sat back.

It's useless, the lords have already set up sentries near the hoarded food and grass for defense, even if they are reminded again, it may be difficult to attract their attention.

Thinking of this,

Frante already had a plan in mind.

"What's the matter, Frant?" Baron Lindauer and the other two barons lifted the curtain and walked into Frant's tent.

Farrant stood up from the ground and said, "After three days, we won't go directly to the frontal battlefield for the decisive battle. The food storage in the rear is our real goal!"

Hearing this, Baron Lindauer first frowned and asked questions: "But, haven't we already arranged guards where the food is stored? What's more, the enemy doesn't know where the food is, so where are we going to do it?"

"Have you heard the sound of horseshoes outside?" Frante didn't answer him directly.

"Of course, those are the enemy's sentinel cavalry. They have been spying on us all day long. I really don't know why..."

"That's right, but they're not here to spy on us. Their real goal is actually our food and grass. The letter of engagement sent by the enemy is likely to confuse us!" Frank nodded.

"So, you mean they don't actually want to fight us?" Baron Lindauer asked with his eyes wide open.

"No, the decisive battle is real, but they will definitely send some elites to attack our granary. Once successful, our soldiers fighting in front will face collapse, and all we have to do is wait here to destroy them!"

"Will... the people from the Moreland family be so smart?" Baron Lindauer was a little disbelieving. If it wasn't for Frant, he would never have thought of it anyway.

"There will never be a shortage of smart people in this world. If we hadn't been able to hide the granary, I wouldn't have been able to deduce the opponent's plan from the enemy's cavalry who kept cruising around!" Farrant shook his head, feeling a little scared in his heart. .

If he didn't guess this point, I'm afraid he will face a catastrophe. He can't imagine how his family will be treated if he loses this battle.

"Okay..." Baron Lindauer nodded, feeling a little lost.

On weekdays, he thinks highly of himself, but he hasn't even noticed the slightest sign of a plan that even a woman in Frante can guess, which inevitably makes him a little disappointed.

That night, Tillihan came to Reiner's room.

The dim oil lamp illuminated the small room dimly and strangely. Reiner's vassals gathered in the room, making the already extremely stuffy room even hotter.

Tillihan said: "Lord Earl, we have found a place where they store grain 27 kilometers south of the enemy camp. I have drawn a topographic map of the vicinity and marked the location."

"Very good!" Reiner said with a smile: "Tomorrow you will take someone with me to raid their granary!"

"Baron Ryland, you are in charge of directing our infantry to hold back the enemy, but be careful not to show off deliberately, just keep the formation in order..."

After finishing speaking, Reiner turned his attention to the rest of the vassals: "My most loyal vassals, you must obey the command of Baron Ryland, his orders are my orders!"

"At the same time, I need you to temporarily lend me the knight who swore allegiance to you, and go behind the damned rebels and attack their granary!"

"Follow the Earl's order!" All the vassals replied in unison.

These vassals have become submissive after a series of measures taken by Leiner during this period, especially the last time they disobeyed and fled, they paid a lot of money, and they have already obeyed him.

What's more, Reiner's many victories have given him great prestige, and the vassals are also extremely convinced of him.

Time flies, and three days have passed in a blink of an eye.

This is the day the two sides agreed to carry out the final decisive battle.
