The Rise of the European Emperor

The ace spies are all out, and Marin is almost a big bet this time. Therefore, the relevant false information, naturally, cannot be done badly. Otherwise, if you take the life of an ace spy, but fail to fool the old fox of Frederick III, you will lose a lot.

So Marin locked himself in the room and started racking his brains to devise a disinformation that seemed very plausible. At least, the cunning "Zhuge Trie" should be fooled.

And a fake information that can fool the old fox, his main point is to be reasonable, so reasonable that people can't jump out of any problems. Otherwise, there will be a lot of loopholes, not to mention "Zhuge Trey", and even the stunned young man of Joachim I may not necessarily believe it. If that's the case, Jim, the king's spy, will probably be pushed out of the camp gate and beheaded before he has time to flicker...

Therefore, for this information, Marin has broken his head and thought a lot...

First, the information had to be sent to Hamburg. Otherwise, the route that does not pass through the west may not be discovered by the scouts scattered by the Bursa coalition.

Second, the intelligence needed to mention the fact that Hamburg recruited 10,000 troops. Originally, Marin intended in this letter to suggest that Heisenberg, the Chancellor of Hamburg, start recruiting 10,000 people to pretend to be reinforcements.

However, Marin suddenly thought that it would take a long time to recruit 10,000 troops. If you wait for this letter to start recruiting, it will be too late.

Moreover, the "true" information in the mezzanine will leak the news that the 10,000-strong army in Hamburg is fake. If this is the case, the spies and scouts of the Allied Forces of Boza around Hamburg City may not necessarily enter the city to inquire about news, nor can they be trapped in the city by Hamburg. At that time, these spies and scouts outside the city will easily find the traces of reinforcements.

Therefore, after thinking about it, Malin decided to immediately write to Heisenberg, the Chancellor of the Grand Chancellor of Hamburg - let him start recruiting the people now. Even, to send troops to the surrounding countryside to catch the strong men.

In this way, the spies and scouts who were originally lurking in the surrounding villages would be shocked. At that time, they had only two choices - to leave or to enter the city...

However, due to the intelligence officers' thirst for intelligence, most of them will choose to go to the city to further inquire about the news. It may even be disguised as a captured strongman and infiltrate the army for the purpose of inquiring about the intelligence...

However, Marin will not give them the opportunity to pass the information on. Because, Marin told Heisenberg—once 10,000 people were strong enough, the city of Hamburg would be in closed mode, and there would be no access. At the same time, there is also a curfew.

At that time, it will be difficult for those spies and scouts to pass the information on. Because the whole city is closed. If you want to go out, once you are found, you will be killed on the spot. Moreover, the city of Hamburg will also prohibit any horses from leaving the city at that time. Without horses, even if people leave the city,

It is also difficult to deliver information in a timely manner.

Not only that, but when the time comes, Hamburg will send cavalry squads to go out of the city to inspect nearby villages and confiscate all the horses to prevent spies from using these horses to report out of the city.

At that time, Sauer's 200 musket cavalrymen specializing in intercepting scouts will also bring another 500 cavalry soldiers, under the banner of Hamburg City, to conduct inspections in the villages north of Hamburg City, and temporarily detain all the horses to avoid. Used by those hidden enemy scouts.

If you find any good horses of the warhorse level in the village, immediately investigate them. After all, those scouts can disguise themselves as commoners and mix in the village. But their horses must be different from the draught horses used in the village. At that time, Sauer's scouts confiscated all the horses and strictly inspected those riding horses of unknown origin. Even if the enemy scouts cannot be caught, the spies and scouts can still be blinded by taking away the horses of all the villages near the landing area of ​​the army.

At that time, even if they discovered the landing army, they would not be able to spread the information immediately. Because they have no horses...

And if you go to report the news on foot, when the army is landing, patrolling the nearby light cavalry, it is not blind, and seeing passers-by running wildly on the road in the middle of the night, they will definitely arrest or kill them directly...

Moreover, Hamburg is only 35 kilometers away from Lubeck. Hamburg is southwest of Lübeck, and the straight-line distance is shorter when landing from the north of Hamburg. Moreover, the main battlefield must be in the west of Lübeck, closer to the landing point. If you land at night, march quickly all night, and arrive just before dawn. And this time is the time when people are the most sleepy. If a sneak attack is launched, the effect is the best...

This was the real plan, but the plan that was deliberately leaked to Frederick III was like this-Marin took the initiative to make an appointment with the Allied forces of Bossa in order to protect Hamburg, and made an appointment for a head-to-head confrontation in the west of Lübeck.

The Bursa coalition has an advantage, and will definitely not refuse this opportunity for a head-to-head confrontation. Then, after the battle between the two sides, Marin's army of 20,000 tried to hold the position and resist the enemy's attack.

Then, "10,000 reinforcements" will be launched in the direction of Hamburg, and at the same time, the "10,000 reinforcements" from the north will also arrive...

However, Hamburg's "10,000 reinforcements" are fake, they just need to show their faces, and then build a stronghold to protect themselves. At the same time, the "10,000 reinforcements" in the north are also not suitable for really assaulting the enemy because half of them are recruits. Therefore, they will also build a village to protect themselves in a place close to the Bosa coalition.

At this time, the Bursa coalition forces, who are not clear about the situation, will definitely divide their forces to block the reinforcements in these two directions for the sake of safety. Marin will estimate in the intelligence - 10,000 people will be sent to the west and the north to resist...

At this time, Marin's army of 20,000 was facing head-on, and only 30,000 main battle troops were left. Then, Marin will fight hard, use 20,000 people and 30,000 people to fight hard to defeat these 30,000 people...

When the enemy's main force of 30,000 is defeated, even if the two 20,000 people who were tricked to leave will return to help, it will be useless. Because, as long as the morale is vented, the soldiers will have fear, and the soldiers will be unable to control their defeat. Otherwise, how can you say "the army is defeated like a mountain"...

And then, of course, Marin won... In the face of the chaotic enemy army, when would it be better to not pursue and kill at this time?

...

To put it bluntly, the core idea of ​​this intelligence is to use fake reinforcements to deceive the Bursa coalition forces into dividing their troops, reducing their frontal force to about 30,000. At this time, there was not much difference in the strength of the two sides. If you fight to the death, you may not be able to win.

...

Of course, this plan is the most suitable plan without real reinforcements. And, can't pick out any faults.

It seemed that, without reinforcements, this was Marin's best bet and the only one that could win.

Anyone who sees this plan will think it is very reasonable. Moreover, these old-fashioned European generals will be convinced by Marin's bold plan. As for doubting its authenticity? Europe, who has rarely been tricked and deceived, will slam the door, and I am afraid that it has not yet been able to see the problem...

After all, the plan was too perfect and reasonable. Use suspicious soldiers to divide the opponent's troops and weaken their frontal forces. Then, taking advantage of the small gap between the numbers of the two sides on the frontal battlefield, let the elite of the headquarters fight to the death... This is too reasonable, and it is unreasonable not to do so...

As for the issue of reinforcements, because the land and sea were blocked, I am afraid that Frederick III and Joachim I did not expect that the Danish army of 20,000 would be defeated so quickly. After all, they didn't expect Marin to bring back 10,000 troops from England. Moreover, it is unpredictable that Prince Christian was poisoned in bed. Under normal circumstances, the intelligence that Marin had deliberately revealed before, said that on the northern battlefield, it was reasonable for the Principality of Schleswig to leave half of the main force to take the people's strength to resist the attack of the Danish army...

Therefore, in the face of such perfect and reasonable "true" intelligence, the best choice for the Allied Forces of Bursa is to allocate part of their forces to intercept the "10,000 reinforcements" that "has half the veterans" all the way to the north. After all, if the army of 5,000 veterans really doesn't care, when the two sides are fighting fiercely, this army suddenly rushed out from the flank, and its destructive power is extremely great...

But neither Frederick III nor Joachim I knew that the intelligence of "5,000 veterans out of 10,000" was also false...

However, with the prudence of Frederick III, he certainly did not dare to gamble. If there are really 5,000 veterans among the 10,000 people, that would be a decent fighting force. If they are attacked on the left wing, it is easy to have an accident. Therefore, it is definitely necessary to send a large army to resist.

As for the west... Since Hamburg's 10,000 reinforcements are all pretended to be civilians. At that time, we can send fewer people to defend in the west. In this way, there will be more people on the frontal battlefield. At that time, if Marin fights to the death, he will face double the main force of the enemy, and they are all elites, even if he tries hard, it may not be useful...

...

In short, Marin threw out this seemingly perfect and reasonable fake plan just to convince the old fox Frederick III that it was true. Then, let them abandon the key defense to the west, so that the pressure of the real reinforcements is relieved. At the same time, before Frederick III and Joachim I got the "true" information, the spies who were originally densely scattered around Hamburg were deceived into the city of Hamburg by Hamburg's behavior of recruiting strong men and catching strong men.

At this time, the real reinforcements landed in the dark, and then went straight to the enemy camp to make a surprise attack. There is no reason to win...

And the role of the ace spy Jim is to deliberately be caught by the enemy with this double-layered parchment intelligence. Then, after being beaten, he deliberately pretended to be mutiny, and instructed Frederick III and Joachim I to tear open the double-layered parchment to get "real" information...and convince them that it was real information... …

With this perfect and reasonable disinformation that Marin has racked his brains for, it seems difficult for Frederick III and Joachim I to believe it or not...
