*****************

"What, my lord, you want to go to the Northern Expedition?"

Everyone in the conference room was stunned after hearing Xiao Feng's thoughts. This proposal is really too bold. Going out of the city to make a northern expedition, and go out in the wild with half-orcs?

For a while, all kinds of pictures flooded into the minds of the leaders present, Kyle, Bloom, Friday, Charlize Mann, Keira, Vieruodis, Groin, Dean, etc. Everyone was caught in a moment of confusion. A strange state of silence, as if someone hit his head with a hammer, and he didn't know how to respond to Xiao Feng.

Although under Xiao Feng's leadership, they had established a firm foothold on the Pennyville Peninsula and established their own territory, but this was all under the protection of the high city wall of Riverrun.

They were able to repel the incoming half-orcs one after another before, relying on the high walls and thick walls, and relying on defense, but now they want to go out of the city to fight the half-orcs, they don't have much confidence, even under Xiao Feng's leadership under.

After all, they have personally experienced how powerful half-orcs are in field battles. In the wild, without the protection of city walls, fighting with half-orcs in the wild is no different from sending them to death in their eyes.

Although they had won several consecutive victories against the orcs before, they were all obtained by hiding behind the tall city walls, and a large part of the factors were due to the advantage of the location here, and the fact that the city walls were covered by the surface. The battlefield prevented the orcs from investing too many troops at one time.

It's different in the open field. Those half-orcs have advantages in strength, speed, etc., and there is no terrain restriction. Just thinking about the scenes of hand-to-hand combat with half-orcs makes everyone feel shuddering.

"My lord, although we have confidence in you, isn't it too hasty to decide to go out of the city to fight the orcs?"

Xiao Feng had built up a lot of prestige in everyone's hearts, so even though everyone had deep doubts about his thoughts, no one dared to show it easily. The meeting room was silent for a while, and finally it was the mature and prudent Kyle who spoke first.

"Haha, no, this plan is not hasty. In fact, I have been thinking about it for a long time. I have learned before that, in the last winter, including this spring, half-orcs have never appeared near our city walls, and our The scope of investigation has even spread to ten miles north of the city wall, what does this mean?"

Xiao Feng knew that these people present,

Most of them are defeated by half-orcs, and they have been defeated by half-orcs in the wild many times, so if you want them to agree with your ideas, you have to convince them, otherwise when the time comes, your thinking will not be unified. Something went wrong.

The people present had never learned anything about Sun Tzu's Art of War, so they didn't know much about battlefield psychology, and Xiao Feng knew much more about this aspect than they did.

Looking at the bewildered expressions of the crowd, he smiled and explained to them: "This shows that in the previous wars, we have already hurt and frightened the orcs, so they will take the initiative to shrink their sphere of influence. , Otherwise, do you think that these beastly people who rely on instinct to do things would shrink back like this?"

As soon as he said this, everyone present was lost in thought. It is true that in the Orc Alliance, only the generals at the top know some strategies, and some of them can be regarded as masters in tactics, but in terms of strategy, they are really not very good.

If they thought Riverrun was easy to bully and it was no big deal, they would have put Bingfeng under their noses long ago, which is what they did last year.

But when the ape-man general led the army and suffered a loss at the city of Riverrun, their sphere of influence shrank rapidly and retreated. This must be because they were afraid.

"It can be said that the last battle of defending the city was a turning point between us and the orcs in this area. In the spring of this year, not only did the orcs not come to provoke, they didn't even see a single ghost, or they chose Either they have entered a state of strategic contraction, or their main force is fighting elsewhere now, and they don't want to pay attention to us for the time being. In any case, in my opinion, they are definitely in a state of insufficient troops in this area now .”

Xiao Feng's words caused everyone present to fall into deep thought, and he continued.

"With the half-orc nature, what do you think will happen to them after they regain their strength or complete the conquest of other regions? Will they continue to sit back and watch us grow stronger?"

"Of course not!"

Keira replied, everyone present at the scene has basically been guided by Xiao Feng's thoughts. Indeed, what your lord said is correct. Once the half-orcs recover their strength, they will inevitably come to take revenge based on their character. How many people will they send?

A thousand people came the first time, more than 10,000 people came the second time, and more than 30,000 people came the third time. What about the fourth time? I'm afraid it will appear in the form of thunderbolt, right?

Thinking of the scene of overwhelming orcs charging on the battlefield, everyone present felt a chill down their backs.

"Now we have more than 60,000 people in Riverrun City, and more than 30,000 people in Twin Towers City. We already have 100,000 people on the entire peninsula. But these, in my opinion, are far from enough. We need More manpower, to develop the peninsula behind us, to accumulate more strength, to prepare for the confrontation that will appear in the future? So now is a good time, taking advantage of the lack of strength of the half-orcs on the opposite side, we should take the initiative to liberate more human beings!"

As soon as Xiao Feng said this, no one objected anymore. It is true that their tribe is already becoming a nation, but the only weakness is the lack of population.

Now is not a time of peace, and they can hide quietly in a corner of the mainland to recuperate, but there are half-orcs on the north side of the city wall watching over them!

Therefore, if you want to develop and grow rapidly, there is nothing that can bring greater help to the tribe than to go out and liberate more humans and capture more half-orcs as slaves.

Seeing that the people present were no longer voicing objections, Xiao Feng immediately said: "Then this matter is settled, Kyle, Bloom, Friday, Vieruodis, Dean, follow me to the north, Riverrun City The 3,000 regular army, plus 3,000 auxiliary soldiers, will go to battle together. Keira, you, Charlizeman, and Groin, together with the 3,000 soldiers brought from the Twin Towers, will be responsible for guarding Riverrun and organizing the logistics. Maintain order at the base and prepare to accept refugees and prisoners."

After all, Xiao Feng's status is special, and what he said just now convinced everyone. At this time, his decision was finalized, and no one objected to it anymore.

The matter of the Northern Expedition was finalized in this way, and the mobilization order was issued. The logistics preparation methods that Xiao Feng had given to Kyle and Charlizeman had also played a role at this time. Various weapons, equipment, and food began to be transferred from It was carried out of the warehouse and distributed to the soldiers.

In fact, just like modern wars, even in ancient wars, logistics were fought, but in ancient times, not many people noticed this.

In the modern world, it was not until the appearance of the book "On War" summarized by Clausewitz, a German military scientist, that the importance of logistics to a war was mentioned for the first time.

Later, countless of his disciples carried forward the idea of ​​this book, and after countless wars, they tempered and concluded, and finally came to the conclusion that war is the importance of logistics!

If you want soldiers to play their due role on the battlefield, you cannot ignore the impact of logistics on morale.

And Xiao Feng brought this theory to this era. It can be said that this idea is very advanced.

Prior to this, in this world, ordinary soldiers, except for knights, were considered cannon fodder in the eyes of military nobles from all over the world. Knights are real soldiers. In war, only after having considerable war experience and corresponding achievements can one be named a knight, that is, a minor nobleman.

Ordinary soldiers, that is, gray livestock, usually cultivate and graze, and when the war comes, they are temporarily caught as mud legs. The only role of these soldiers on the battlefield is to strengthen their courage and complete various missions of filling holes.

As for the life and death of these ordinary soldiers, the nobles don't care at all, let alone weapons and equipment supplies, hehe.

According to Xiao Feng's understanding, when a war breaks out, ordinary soldiers in this world must obey the call-up orders of those noble lords, and even bring their own weapons and equipment and dry food to join the lord's army, complete combat missions, and fight with Hua Hua. There is no difference between slave soldiers and slave soldiers in ancient China.

The only advantage is that if the war wins, they can share a certain amount of spoils, but if they fail, then hehe.

Therefore, such soldiers can play some role when they are fighting with the wind on the battlefield.

Xiao Feng didn't need such soldiers. What he wanted were elite soldiers who dared to fight. This was also the main reason why he hadn't expanded the size of his army. Three thousand elite soldiers were much more powerful than thirty thousand miscellaneous soldiers.

For these 3,000 elite soldiers, Xiao Feng has never been stingy about the inclination of resources, which can be seen very clearly in the weapons and equipment.

Almost everyone is equipped with iron armor. Although the slightly rough iron armor made by Groin and the others is enough, these armors may not be very effective against orcs, but at least they can provide the soldiers with a very strong defense. A sense of security can greatly boost their morale.

All the soldiers were equipped with well-equipped spears, and the 2.8-meter spears gave them a relatively long enough attack range when facing tall and strong half-orcs.

Moreover, the spearheads of the spears were all three-edged bayonet-shaped spearheads that Xiao Feng asked Glooyin and the others to craft carefully.
