The King of Knights in a Different World

The Twelve Knights who originally guarded the south have been killed, and grass has begun to grow on the graves.

when such news came.

All the generals froze in place, and their minds went blank for a moment.

Have absolutely no idea what's going on.

After a long time, Charlemagne was the first to react.

"Southside...Sea"

He simply spit out two words.

"Judging from the current situation, this is the only possibility.

Lord Marshal, the south of France has been completely occupied, and the route of retreat has been cut off. The current situation is very unfavorable to us, please make plans early."

Henry spoke at this time to advise.

"Not only that.

There are worse things."

Richelieu's expression became a little ugly.

He thought of something more deadly.

"What's the meaning"

Dion asked immediately.

At this time Henry said something that Richelieu did not say.

"Empire.

Archbishop means king city.

Now the defense force of Wangcheng is only 10,000 people.

We are stuck here again, if Britain attacks the royal city at this time..."

They don't have any doubts about... the entire fall of the south.

If Lucifer leads fifty thousand people here, it is entirely possible to flatten the south.

After all, most of the noble soldiers in the south were taken away, and the remaining troops encountered Lucifer's army.

If you don't want to die, you can only surrender.

Although the royal city is strong, it doesn't have much defensive force.

They don't know exactly how many people there are in Lucifer now.

The price for Verdun is 50,000, but for other places, there is not much more. It is a pity that time does not allow them to think too much.

"Master Marshal, please let me immediately lead the troops to counterattack Verdun."

Na Mo immediately stood up and begged for his life.

"That's right! Counterattack! Must counterattack."

Monteban also spoke at the same time.

"How many people are you going to take to counterattack?"

Flores Matt asked back at this time.

With just one sentence, the two people next to him completely lost their temper.

Judging from the current situation, at least 100,000 people are needed to counterattack.

Success, this is still based on the premise that the British army on the opposite side does not act at the same time.

"..."

The people around fell into silence.

Although it is said to be a counterattack, it is also a siege.

If it is not captured, the army going out will have nowhere to go.

"Counterattack we have lost the best time.

Compared with the counterattack, I think the tactics of the King of Knights to capture Verdun are somewhat familiar."

Richelieu didn't immediately talk about the issue of counterattack, but focused on Lucifer's tactics.

He looked at Flores Matt.

At this time, Flores Matt naturally understood what the other party meant.

"That was the tactic Marshal Lothar used to deal with him, but he saw through it.

Unexpectedly, he is now using it on France."

he said calmly.

When he heard the news before, he felt a little familiar, until now he has fully confirmed it.

"The despicable King of Britain who stole the tactics of the late Marshal!"

Monteban cursed Lucifer's despicable methods loudly.

He can only vent like this now.

"That's why I think the timing is wrong.

Judging from the current situation, the King of Britain knows France very well, very well.

Even use our tactics appropriately.

But we don't know much about him."

"Knowing that there is a fart, only those who have been beaten will know."

"Facing an unknown enemy, how do you fight? If you counterattacked immediately yesterday, you would have a chance.

But today, we have no chance.

Lord Marshal, may I ask how many days we can still eat the food we have now?"

Richelieu then changed the subject.

What he said just now is to give him face. He didn't say that you should counterattack now. If there are fewer people, you will be... killed.

There are too many people, and the British side will follow you, and it is still written on your face.

For this reason, he can only shift the topic to the most serious problem at present.

"For me, if there is no replenishment, the stored grain will last less than a month."

Dion immediately spoke of their situation.

During this period of time, he has been managing food, and he knows these things very well.

Another bad news, causing yet another burst of "..."

"Why is there such a big difference.

I remember that the food stock in this important fortress is usually half a year."

Roland asked at this time.

"Because there are more people.

Originally, the food bank here did not consider the amount to support nearly 400,000 troops.

Before that, Verdun sent food every ten days, but if it didn't.

We probably won't last a month."

Flores Matt spoke about the current situation.

Originally, there were only 200,000 troops stationed here at most.

It's good now, suddenly doubled, and it's still long-term.

No problem at all.

"..."

"How long can the King of Britain last"

Charlemagne looked at Richelieu seriously.

"have no idea.

But the south has fallen, and he can be replenished, plus the stock of Verdun before, if he only has 50,000 people, it will definitely last longer than us.”

Richelieu had the answer.

There is no need to think about Lucifer's lack of food at all.

Not to mention the current situation, the south can support him, even the food in Verdun is definitely enough for him for two months.

"One month! What should I do now?"

Afu said with some despair.

His words spoke out from everyone's heart.

Before, they could wait for the opponent's attack, but now, if they continue to stay, they will run out of food after a month.

Then there's no need to fight at all.

"It's terrible.

The King of Britain occupies Verdun, and if he does not take it back, the grain cannot be sent in at all.

But now no one can take it back."

Oliver said the key point in front of him.

Their rear was cut off and their food was cut off.

The route of retreat is also blocked, if you don't take it back, defeat is only a matter of time.

But none of them could take it back.

"Not necessarily! In the north, how about letting Ganelon go south? If it was him, he might be able to lead the army in the north..."

At this time, Roland expressed his opinion.

But it was immediately overruled by Charlemagne.

"Letting Ganillon go south is like letting Rome go straight into France."

"..."

At present, their side has not been defeated by Britain, and it is already troublesome enough.

Now if Rome enters France again, it will be... one country will fight two countries.

The pressure is much greater than it is now.

What's more, if they fight Britain to the death, Rome directly captures the royal city.

They have nowhere to cry.

"It will take at least half a month for General Ganelon to move his army south.

What happens during this time is beyond our control.

His strength is simply not enough."

Richelieu also disagreed with this proposal.

If Britain is a wolf and Rome is... a tiger, it will be hard to let anyone in.

As an archbishop born in a church, he especially understands the nature of Rome.

Because of historical reasons, Rome is very hostile to the church. The most powerful period of the church was...developed in Rome.

As a result, the mad king Romulus II at that time was dissatisfied with the church's interference in Rome's internal affairs, so he directly dispatched five 55 regular Roman legions to smash the church to pieces.

The most powerful armed holy knights of the church at that time were bloodbathed in that disaster, and no one survived.

If the pope hadn't stabilized the mad king with a secret chamber and the previous oath, the church might have disappeared directly.
