Real Cthulhu Running Game

Chapter 733 Crisis

The reason why Liu Xing and Ding Kun were sent to persuade Bolin City, the home base of the rebels, to surrender was because Liu Xing and Ding Kun's speech skills were relatively high, and one of Liu Xing and Ding Kun was in close combat and the other was in long range. If they encountered some emergencies, If so, we can cooperate better.

Of course, Chen Zixuan also sent Rodriguez with a hundred soldiers to protect Liu Xing and Ding Kun, and when they parted, he specifically reminded Liu Xing and Ding Kun that if they encountered danger in Bolin City, they would take them directly with them. As these soldiers retreated, if anyone dared to question the matter, Chen Zixuan would also stand up and take responsibility.

In addition, I don’t know if Louis did it intentionally. He actually asked the two brothers Cowens and Kewen to bring 500 recruits to "protect" Liu Xing and Ding Kun. This was unexpected for Liu Xing. Unexpected.

As a result, Liu Xing and Ding Kun inexplicably had 600 more soldiers under their command, although these soldiers may not obey the orders of Liu Xing and Ding Kun.

But what really made Liu Xing and Ding Kun happy was that Louis arranged for Wellington to be responsible for the attack on Bolin City, and also temporarily appointed Liu Xing and Ding Kun as Wellington's generals. This meant that Liu Xing and Ding Kun can participate in military decisions, have more contact with Wellington, and increase Wellington's favorability.

Because Romantic City is not far from Bollinger City, and the terrain between the two cities is basically plain, Liu Xing and Ding Kun still have three days to "talk" with Wellington and strive for Able to join Wellington's forces.

If Wellington is still indifferent after these three days of chatting, then Liu Xing and others will decide to turn against Bonaparte first, so Yin En and others will also go to Bonaparte to exchange feelings.

Liu Xing and Ding Kun were sitting in a carriage fighting the landlord with Rodriguez, while the two brothers Cowens and Coven were on horseback guarding the carriage.

Moreover, Cowens also brought bad news to Liu Xing and Ding Kun. When Louis arranged for them to "protect" Liu Xing and Ding Kun, he specifically mentioned that if something happened to Liu Xing and Ding Kun, then they Don't even think about living.

Therefore, Liu Xing and Ding Kun both thought of a possibility, that is, that damn guy Louis will be detrimental to the two of them in the subsequent battle, so that they can justifiably kill the two brothers Cowens and Kewen. !

This is a poisonous trick. After all, swords have no eyesight on the battlefield, and anything can happen. Therefore, it is not impossible for Liu Xing and Ding Kun to die on the battlefield. If Liu Xing and Ding Kun can be "broken into pieces" "That would be perfect.

As for the possible condemnation from the empire, Louis should still feel that he can continue shamelessly. In the end, he can deal with the death without proof and punish himself with three cups. After all, although Liu Xing and Ding Kun are said to be "brave", they In fact, it cannot be compared with Zhang Jingxu, a real brave man.

But more importantly, the empire is also very willing to see such a scene happen, because then the empire can legitimately let Chen Zixuan lead the imperial mercenaries to help Wellington capture Skaven in the name of revenge for Liu Xing and Ding Kun. The throne of the kingdom!

As for the two "brave men" Liu Xing and Ding Kun, they only need to be granted an official position and hold a grand funeral.

Therefore, if Louis really intends to be detrimental to Liu Xing and Ding Kun, then the empire, which knows the truth, will also choose to side with Louis.

Even from the perspective of conspiracy theory, the empire may even use Ding to deal with Liu Xing and Ding Kun.

Liu Xing and Ding Kun, who want to understand this, both know that they are in a very dangerous situation now, because apart from each other, there are people nearby who may want to harm them, and there are tens of thousands of them. . . .

Both Liu Xing and Ding Kun wanted to find a chance to have a good chat, but they didn’t know if Rodriguez had received the order of “personal protection” from Chen Zixuan. It was almost Liu Xing and Ding Kun who were there, so Rodriguez It must be nearby.

So both Liu Xing and Ding Kun started to get a little anxious.

During the card game, Liu Xing and Ding Kun had a tacit understanding of each other, and they finally determined that Rodriguez would not be detrimental to them.

This was also expected by Liu Xing, because Rodriguez had some friendship with his group no matter what, so to be on the safe side, Chen Zixuan would definitely not let Rodriguez attack Liu Xing and Ding Kun. , not to mention Rodriguez is not Chen Zixuan’s confidant.

Therefore, Liu Xing pretended not to care and said: "Rodriguez, are you protecting us or spying on us these two days? I can see you just by turning my head these two days."

Rodriguez chuckled and replied seriously: "Isn't this General Chen's arrangement for me to protect you personally? After all, we have now entered the territory of the rebels, and those rebels should already know about Liu Xing's trip. purpose, so General Chen feels that the rebels will definitely find a way to cause trouble for you, and the most straightforward way is definitely assassination. And Liu Xing, as a priest, you lack melee capabilities, so I must protect you personally. .”

Sure enough.

After receiving the expected answer, Liu Xing said with a look of disgust: "Rodriguez, you look down on me a little too much. You must know that we pastors have long expected that someone will be detrimental to us, thinking that someone will be unfavorable to us." As long as we can get close, we are like fish on the chopping board for them to deal with. Therefore, we priests have specially trained a set of random cloak staff techniques before learning to use the Holy Light. This set of random cloak staff techniques is from the berserker. I brought it in, so with the iron rod in my hand, I am still confident to knock the heads off those assassins, so Rodriguez, you better stop following me. I can feel the people around me looking at you and me. Something’s wrong with my eyes.”

At this time, Ding Kun on the side also stood up and said: "Liu Xing is right. What's more, there are 600 soldiers around us to protect us. We usually keep a certain distance from other armies when we camp, so those assassins Anyone who wants to sneak in and harm us is tantamount to seeking death."

There was a sound of dice hitting the ground.

"Liu Xing, what you said seems to make some sense..." Rodriguez seemed hesitant.

Seeing this situation, Liu Xing of course took advantage of the situation and pursued him: "Rodriguez, I think you should be smarter. Don't just do whatever General Chen tells you to do. After all, you are already a commander, so you have to learn how to do it." It’s up to you to judge the situation and make a decision.”

Liu Xing's words made Rodriguez frown. After a moment of silence, he said, "Liu Xing, you are right. I was indeed a little too careful."

Liu Xing felt happy, knowing that he could finally get rid of Rodriguez's "protection".

At this moment, Cowens's voice came from outside the carriage, "Wellington just sent someone to bring news. He wants to hold a pre-war meeting after setting up camp tonight. I hope Liu Xing and you can attend together."

"Of course." Ding Kun said with a smile.

After the army camped by a river, Liu Xing and others came to Wellington's tent.

Soon, a group of lords and middle- and high-level generals in the army came to the tent.

Although Liu Xing and Ding Kun were not of high rank, Wellington wanted to show his respect for the empire, so Liu Xing, Ding Kun, and Rodriguez were all placed close to Wellington.

The meeting begins.

According to the intelligence brought back by the scouts, the rebels had indeed recovered most of their troops outside Bolin City, and had built many defenses outside Bolin City, as if they planned to fight to the end.

As for the strength of the rebels, they are close to 50,000. However, according to the intelligence obtained during this period, more than half of the 50,000 rebels are newly recruited, but among them, 10,000 The soldiers are Bahamut believers who came from all over the world, so the combat effectiveness of this unit cannot be underestimated.

"Although the rebels have 20,000 more troops than us, they are just a bunch of rabble, so I think we should be able to defeat them easily. But if these guys retreat to defend, then we will have to fight in Bolin City I've been staying abroad for a long time, so do you have any ideas to solve this problem?" Wellington asked seriously.

The lords and generals looked at each other and discussed in low voices for a long time, but no one dared to come forward and offer advice.

Liu Xing understood this very well, because Liu Xing could not think of the clever plan Wellington wanted.

Whether in ancient or modern times, at home and abroad, siege warfare has always been a difficult problem, because most cities are easy to defend and difficult to attack. The defender can rely on the height advantage of the city wall to fight with various defensive props, while the attacker Fang wanted to attack the city without protection, so the gap between the two sides was clear at a glance.

Therefore, in many siege battles recorded in historical data, even if the siege force was several times, or even dozens of times, stronger than the defenders, they had to spend a year and a half under the city and the defenders before they could rely on food and grass. advantage to defeat the defenders.

For example, the city of Xiangyang guarded by Guo Jing in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was historically defended by the Mongolian army for six years.

Therefore, Liu Xing felt that if nothing unexpected happened, Wellington's attack on Bollinger City this time would have to go from summer to winter at least to achieve results. . . Of course, winter here may refer to next year's winter. . .

This made Liu Xing feel a little desperate. After all, sitting in a city for such a long time felt very boring just thinking about it.

Now Liu Xing has begun to miss his mobile phone and computer.

Just when Liu Xing was thinking wildly, Wellington sighed and said: "Sure enough, you, like me, can't come up with a feasible siege plan. It seems that we have to be prepared for a long siege this time. .”

"General Wellington, you are right. Although the enemy is a bunch of chickens and dogs, they have 20,000 more recruits than us after all, and they can recruit more recruits from Boleyn City at any time. Therefore, if the enemy cannot hold on, it will be difficult for us to end this battle early... And as far as I know, His Majesty Louis transported a lot of military supplies to Boleyn City before Merlot's rebellion..." Cowens Said with some embarrassment.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Hearing what Cowens said, Liu Xing's heart froze again. He didn't expect that Louis guy really gave it for free. We haven't prepared to send troops here yet. Why did you transport the military rations in advance?

Now Liu Xing has postponed next winter to the winter of the year after.

Liu Xing suspected that after he finished this module and returned to the real world, he would forget how to use his mobile phone and computer. . .

But at this moment, a sidekick lord suddenly said: "This depends on the performance of the two brave men. If the two brave men can talk about lotus and successfully instigate a group of enemy troops, then it is still possible for us to cooperate internally and externally." , capture Bolin City in advance.”

Liu Xing was confused. He didn't expect that someone would blame him at this time.

Just when Liu Xing was still a little surprised, Ding Kun retorted: "With all due respect, we can no longer successfully instigate these 50,000 rebels with just a few words, because now they have no way out. We can only fight to the end with determination, not to mention those Bahamut believers as supervisors, so we can no longer guarantee that we can convince those enemy forces to turn back."

The sidekick lord wanted to say something more, but was directly forced back by Rodriguez's eyes beside Liu Xing.

At this time, Wellington stood up to smooth things over and said: "Master Ding Kun is right. Those soldiers who still dare to serve the rebels are determined to fight against us to the end, so I don't expect those soldiers to be able to We have to rein in the situation, but Mr. Liu Xing and Mr. Ding Kun still have to say a few words, because this can at least shake the morale of the rebels."

Then, Wellington began to change the subject and began to assign offensive tasks to various lords and generals.

After the meeting, Liu Xing and others were left behind by Wellington.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect Hart to embarrass you Liu Xing at this time." Wellington said with some embarrassment: "Hart's family is located on the border between the Skaven Kingdom and the Empire, so Hart Many of Hart's ancestors died in the battle between the Kingdom of Skaven and the Empire, so Hart's family is one of the most hostile to the Empire in the Kingdom of Skaven, and Hart grew up with His Majesty Louis, so Hart He is becoming more and more proud of his favor."

Liu Xing frowned, knowing that if that guy Louis was really unfavorable to him, he would probably let Hart attack himself and Ding Kun.

So, is Wellington reminding himself in disguise?

Liu Xing looked at Wellington, who had a normal expression, and was a little undecided for a moment, because Liu Xing was still not sure whether Wellington was an enemy or a friend.
