Give Me the Name of God

Longgesen used a short knife to outline the structure of the camp on the snow, and said slowly: "A dangerous pass can withstand twenty times the enemy force, a strong city can withstand ten times the enemy force, and a well-defended camp can withstand three times the enemy force. The enemy army, do you know the secret to holding a camp?"

Che Erdan looked puzzled: "I still know some tricks, but since we can withstand three times the enemy force and we have three thousand people, why don't we stay and hold on to the camp!"

"Because what I want is not to resist. What's the point of resisting? To stand in a stalemate with the enemy in the ice and snow, waiting for the Bayers to send reinforcements, to surround us heavily, and to push us to the end of the rope?"

Looking at the structural diagram drawn by Longesen, Che Erdan understood to some extent what he meant: "You want to use the camp as a bait and let Roma annihilate the enemy outside? But why would the Bayers be fooled? Now here and the sky There is almost no difference between the camps.”

"If the Bayers don't take action tonight, we will leave this place immediately tomorrow. I will not stick to an empty camp during the day. That would be stupid.

But if the battle starts tonight, the situation will be very different. Night battles are very special, especially on cloudy nights. You can make the enemy not know how many troops you have, and even make the enemy not know where the soldiers are. "

While talking, Longerson rubbed the short knife on his sleeve, cut a piece of bacon, and stuffed it into his mouth.

Che Erdan pursed his lips and said, "Is that knife never washed?"

Longerson shrugged and said, "I didn't use it to chop up any corpses today."

A soldier walked into the camp and reported in missionary language: "The enemy is approaching the camp."

Longerson laughed and said: "They must be freezing after staying in the snowdrift for so long. Let them warm up first!"

The Bayers were really freezing. If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't bear the cold wind at night, they wouldn't have taken the initiative to attack the camp. The safest option would have been to wait for an ambush on favorable terrain.

Rungersen's estimate was very accurate. The number of enemy troops was around 4,000. They were divided into two groups and quietly approached the camp from the west and north.

Longgesen also asked the soldiers to meet the enemy in two directions, and after calculating the distance accurately, he ordered the soldiers to launch fire arrows. The feather arrows wrapped with oil cloth and the clusters of fire balls were very dazzling in the night, as if a burst of fire rain was shooting into the enemy. captured the enemy's military formation.

"How come there are so many arrows?" Che Erdan's eyes widened. The three hundred soldiers were divided into two groups, with only more than a hundred people in each group. The arrows could not be so dense. He suspected that Longgesen was It's not using some kind of skill.

But after observing for a while, Che Erdan discovered the mystery. Most of the firelight came from the reflection of the snow, which gave people the illusion of a high density of arrows.

This illusion deceived Che Erdan, and naturally it also deceived the Bayers. Seeing that the enemy had been prepared for a long time, their military formation became a little loose.

Che Erdan asked in a low voice: "When will Roma take action?"

Longgesen said: "You have to wait for my signal."

"Now is the perfect time."

"It's still early." Longerson shook his head and ordered the soldiers to light the hay on the sled.

Setting fire to wagons filled with hay to attack tribesmen who sent servants was the most common tactic used by the Byers, and it was also a tactic that Lungerson admired.

But Longerson was very stingy about horse-drawn carriages. The camp was built on a gentle slope, so a sleigh was suitable. The lethality of this tactic is limited. It is not difficult for soldiers to avoid a burning sled, but it is very destructive to the formation and can cause great psychological shock.

There was partial chaos in the Bayer military formation. Che Erdan said with a surprised look on his face: "This is the best time, it's time for Roma to take action!"

"There's no rush." ​​Longgesen still shook his head, and he ordered a hundred cavalry to be gathered.

"What is this?" Che Erdan looked horrified.

Longeson said: "When I engage the enemy, you immediately light all the torches in the camp. General Sellers will arrive soon. Before she arrives, you must hold the camp."

"Are you going to leave the camp?" Che Erdan was completely stunned. "Are you crazy? You despise the enemy too much!"

"This is not contempt, this is respect!" Longesen stood up and said, "I bet my life on this battle to show respect for the enemy. They squatted in the snowdrift for a whole day just to get a chance to ambush. , such an enemy deserves respect!"

Longesen selected the best of the three hundred elites from Rome's army, with the purpose of completing the most difficult battle. One hundred cavalry quickly assembled and, under the leadership of Longesen, rushed from the north of the camp. go out.

The horse hooves were mixed with broken snow, making it difficult for the Bayers to judge the number of cavalry. They thought that the enemy was taking the initiative to attack, and immediately ordered to concentrate their forces to block the enemy's way.

Rungersen did not confront the enemy head-on. He chose the weakest spot in the military formation and fought through the enemy's siege. The Bayers thought that the enemy had abandoned the camp and fled, but they did not expect that Rungersen turned around and came back to fight. Shuttle back and forth between the gaps in the array.

The enemy troops in the north were in serious confusion. At the same time, Cherdan lit the torch in the camp and led the remaining soldiers to desperately resist the enemy troops rushing up from the west.

Rome received the signal in the distance, blew the horn, and led the soldiers to launch a counterattack.

The Bayers had the illusion that the enemy had reinforcements outside the camp, so their generals made different decisions. The Bayers in the west chose to attack desperately and strive to capture the camp as soon as possible, while the Bayers in the north tried their best to encircle them. The cavalry that blocked Longgesen.

This was the most perfect result. The enemy troops from the west quickly entered the camp. At this time, the structure of the camp played a special role.

All the tents are in an unsightly position, and there is not a single spacious passage in the entire camp. Che Erdan and his two hundred people can shuttle between the tents calmly, but the more than two thousand Bayer army is not so lucky. They do not understand the conditions of the camp. The structure is like walking into a maze. Between guessing and squeezing each other, the formation is in a mess.

Before the Bayers could surround Cherdan, Roma had already attacked from behind and began a ruthless bloodbath against the Bayers who rushed into the camp. The Bayers trapped in the maze once again showed their fighting tradition. When the battle losses exceeded 30%, they did not flee, but chose to surrender.

Roma divided half of his troops and went to the north to support Longesen. The surrounded Longesen led his cavalry to dismount, and used their horses as cover to form a circular formation and set up a solid defensive formation.

This is the razor tactic Longgesen is extremely good at. He attracts all the Bayers to his side. Roma in the outer circle is like a razor, shaving the Bayers' military formation layer by layer.

…

In the early morning, Horna braved the cold wind and scanned the land in the air. Although she knew the general direction, it was not easy to find an army in the snowfield.

When she saw the smoke billowing from the camp and the corpses piled on the ground, the desperate Horna swooped down and almost knocked over the sleepy Roma.

"Still alive!" Horna pinched Roma's cheek and smiled excitedly, "Great, you are all still alive!"

Roma smiled and gestured in sign language: We won the battle, and we have to admit that he is a respectable general.

Longerson walked up to Horna and said with a smile: "It turns out that Lord Claudesay is his wife."

After saying that, he saluted to Horna, turned to look at Roma and said: "She is Claude Sai's wife, General Cyrus, what is your identity?"

Everyone was quiet for a long time. Holna looked at Longson, blinked and said, "Have you always been so annoying?"

Roma gestured in sign language: The only respect I had for you has disappeared.

Holna took out Chuitt's letter, but something happened in a hurry. Chuitt repeated the original letter without adding his own thoughts.

After reading the letter, Roma gestured in sign language: The battle is over, we have defeated the Bayers.

Horna laughed loudly with excitement, and Longerson said from the side: "Can you give me a look at the letter?"

Roma returned the letter to Holna with a look of disgust, and Holna handed the letter to Longerson.

After reading the letter, Longgesen frowned and murmured: "This makes no sense."

Horna was startled: "What you said doesn't make sense? Is the letter from the Bayer people fake?"

Eudora looked puzzled: "We have already encountered an ambush. This letter is true. What is there to doubt?"

"It doesn't make sense, it really doesn't make sense!" Longerson stared at the letter for a long time, shook his head and said, "It would be great if Lessio was here, he must know what the problem is."

Cherdan read the letter and asked in a low voice: "Is this letter from the archbishop?"

Horna nodded.

Longgesen raised his head and said, "Do you understand?"

Che Erdan lowered his voice and said: "There is a spy in our army. The spy reported the news to the archbishop. The archbishop reported the news to King Bayer. King Bayer received the news and sent an army to ambush us here?"

Longsen nodded and said: "That should be the case."

Che Erdan continued: "But King Bayer should be outside the city. Why did the spy send the news to the archbishop in the city? Why not send it directly to King Bayer outside the city?"

Horna thought for a moment: "This spy is a subordinate of the archbishop."

Che Erdan shook his head and said: "No matter who his subordinates are, they should not send messages to the city. Doing so is too dangerous and will also delay the delivery time. The right choice is to send the message directly to King Bayer outside the city. "

Longgesen said in astonishment: "Unless there is a possibility..."

Che Erdan said: "King Bayer is in Bingyan City, in the cathedral, and right next to the archbishop!"

Horna trembled, turned to Roma and said, "It's time for me to go, Manda is in danger!"

Longgesen said: "Calm down first. Where is Manda now?"

"I don't know," Horna shook her head, "There is no one where he is!"

"When you fly back, his head may be on the ground," Longgesen said, "Doesn't he have a charm?"

"The spell can't find him. I've tried every method, and no one can find him!"
