Chapter 995 Su Cheng's worries

After announcing the dissolution, Su Cheng took the lead in leaving the conference room.

It was already dusk, so after leaving the conference room, Su Cheng did not stay at the headquarters of the Knights of Michael for a long time, so he left the headquarters and returned to his home.

After Alisa and Kylor took Teresa to Pandragon, his home became much deserted.

When he got home, Su Cheng saw Alan lying on the sofa in the hall, playing with a strange toy.

"Brother, you are back...Hmm? Brother, what's wrong? Are you feeling unhappy?"

With just one glance, Alan keenly felt that Su Cheng was in a bad mood at this time.

"Yeah, yes." Su Cheng pinched his nose with exhaustion, "There is something big in the country now..."

After saying that, Su Cheng began to summarize the various major events that the empire has encountered now in Alan in the shortest sentences.

After learning that Isel and Albert's 300,000 troops were defeated in the Rhineland Plain and Ilsa led the Uriel Knights to march in person, Alan directly widened his eyes and sat up from the sofa.

"No way..." Alan murmured, "Issel and Albert actually defeated...are they two very powerful?"

"They are indeed very powerful, but that doesn't mean they are invincible. Today I win, tomorrow you win - this kind of thing is very common on the battlefield."

After saying that, Su Cheng sighed lightly and continued:

"I'm a little worried about Alisa now..."

As soon as Su Cheng finished speaking, Alan nodded quickly:

"When my father encountered such a disaster, anyone would feel very anxious..."

Speaking of this, Alan paused for a moment, then raised his head and asked Su Cheng:

"Brother, your Majesty now leads the Uriel Knights to attack the Frank army entrenched in the Rhineland Plain. Can your Majesty and the others win?"

After hearing Alan's question, Su Cheng fell silent.

After a long silence, he finally spoke:

"……have no idea."

"It's hard to tell who wins and loses on the battlefield."

"Weather, terrain, the morale of the generals of the two armies, the level of the commander... these factors will affect the outcome of the war."

"However, just from the comparison of the forces between the two armies, the Franks have the advantage."

"According to information, the Frank army, now entrenched in the Rhineland Plain, the army, and the fleet's sailors, have about 350,000 to 450,000 military forces."

"The Uriel Knights who went to fight had only 150,000 troops. The troops were seriously less than those of the Frank army."

"However, even if the knights have the right command, there is still a chance to defeat the Frank army."

Speaking of this, Su Cheng became silent again.

Su Cheng's silence this time was a bit long, so long that Alan began to doubt whether Su Cheng was dozing off.

Just when Alan was planning to "awaken" Su Cheng, Su Cheng finally broke his silence:

"... Actually, I think His Majesty and the others used the wrong tactic."

"If you don't defeat the Farrow fleet first, it will be quite difficult to defeat the Frank army troops entrenched in the Rhineland Plain."

"Hmm?" Alan looked at Su Cheng with confusion, "Using the wrong tactic? What does it mean?"

Su Cheng sat next to Alan.

Dip it into the black tea that happened to be placed by the table, and then draw it on the table.

"This is the fleet of the Frank Empire, now entrenched in this Isu River."

Su Cheng used tea to draw a waterline for east-west direction on the table.

“This is the Rhineland Plain.”

Su Cheng drew a big circle in the north of the "Yusu River".

"The army of the Frank Empire sieges heavily on this Rhineland plain, besieging Dad and Albert's remnants."

"If His Majesty led the Knights of Uriel, and went by land to the Rhineland Plain, guess what would happen?"

Su Cheng drew two small circles in the large circle symbolizing the Rhineland Plain. These two small circles represent the army of the Frank Empire and the Knights of Uriel led by Ilsa.

Alan looked at the simple map drawn by Su Cheng and pondered for a long time, but did not think about what would have happened if Ilsa only brought the Knights of Uriel to rescue Issel.

And Su Cheng didn't expect Alan to give any reliable answer.

Before Alan could express his opinion, Su Cheng gave the answer himself.

"If His Majesty only leads the Knights of Uriel... that is, only leads the army, then the fleet of the Frank Empire will harass His Majesty's troops without any obstacles."

"The reason why Dad and Albert were defeated was because the Frank Empire fleet seized their retreat and landed a large number of troops behind them."

"If this fleet of the Frank Empire is not defeated, the threat posed by this fleet will be too great."

Seeing that Alan still didn't understand what he said just now, Su Cheng pondered for a while, and then decided to give an example to explain to Alan.

"Now assume that your Majesty successfully led the Knights of Uriel to the Rhineland Plain in time and engaged in a war with the Frankish Army."

Su Cheng poked the simple map that he had just drawn on the table.

"Just as the two armies were fighting fiercely, the Frank Empire fleet suddenly took their landing troops and started landing here."

Su Cheng casually pointed to somewhere in the "Yusu River" that had just been drawn on the table.

"Then, this landing force that successfully landed ashore will be able to attack the flanks of the Ullir Knights, or directly detoured to attack the rear of the Ullir Knights."

"When the opponent in front of me was fighting fiercely, a new enemy suddenly came from the side or behind me - can you imagine how bad it was?"

After listening to the example given by Su Cheng, Alan finally showed a sudden enlightenment on her face.

"Oh, I understand, that is, if we don't manage to get rid of this fleet of the Frank Empire, then this fleet that can carry a large number of landing troops can land in any place on the Issu River and then harass our army, am I right?"

"That's right." Seeing that Alan finally understood, Su Cheng's face finally showed a look of relief.

"If we want to avoid harassment from this fleet of the Frank Empire and their landing troops, there are only 2 ways."

"The first method is to send a large number of scouts to monitor all parts of the Isu River. Strictly prevent the landing troops of the Frank Empire from landing on the flanks or behind the army."

"But this method is very inefficient. The Isu River is too wide and too long. How many scouts have to be sent to see every corner of the Isu River?"

"So, the easiest and most effective method is the second method - to summon our country's navy and fight to the death with the Frank Empire fleet on the Issu River!"

Su Cheng said in a strong tone:

"As long as the Frank Empire's fleet is annihilated, their landing forces will be useless. They will only become ordinary army."
