Chapter 22: Back to the water 1 battle (on)

"Yes."

Colin wanted to deny it, but for some reason, he chose to be honest.

"What?" Vera widened her eyes, as if she had met the young knight in front of her for the first time, "So...what about the plan? The suspects made the illusion of crossing the river, but they were hiding in the most dangerous river bend... Didn't you say The most dangerous place is the safest..."

"That's all to lie to you." Colin looked into the eyes of the female mage, "Those wolf cavalry have been tricked by us before, how could it be so simple and fooled again?"

"You..." Vera took a deep breath and gradually calmed down.

She didn't lack courage, and she was a little gaffe because she was suddenly shattered because of her hope of escape.

"What are you doing this for?"

Vera has a complicated expression, and the glorious image that Colin has built in her heart is collapsing.

"We can't run away." Colin sighed, and his tone gradually became cold. "From the moment you made the decision not to abandon the rout soldiers, you should have this consciousness.

This is a life and death battlefield, which cannot tolerate kindness and innocence!

Even if my suspicion tricked the chasing soldiers and made them think we really crossed Hebei to go north, but how long can we deceive them?

They are wolf cavalry, but we are dragged down by a large group of infantry. When they find something wrong after crossing the river, it will only take a day or two to catch up after they cross the river.

This battle, we can't avoid it!

So, since fighting cannot be avoided, then the only thing we can do is to choose the most advantageous place for fighting. "

Colin pointed his finger to his feet, and said in a deep voice: "Here is the most dangerous, but it is also the place where we have the most chance of winning the battle!"

"Why?" Vera felt that she no longer dared to trust Colin.

Before Colin answered, Bliss had already spoken: "Because here, we have no way to escape."

"That's right!" Colin took a deep look at Bliss, "Only the rabbits that are forced to the corner will turn their heads and bite, and the same goes for the broken soldiers.

If we are overtaken by wolf cavalry in the open field, then there is no doubt that as long as the other side charges, the collapsed soldiers we gathered will inevitably collapse, and then fled around.

Therefore, there must be no way for them to escape.

Since we don’t want to abandon them, we must not let them abandon us!

Either win a battle, or die here together! "

Colin's loud and loud remarks made Vera upset.

She had no idea how to evaluate the young knight in front of her.

didn't know if what he did was right or wrong.

Whether it is the childhood spent in Winter City or the school career in Yevel Tower, everything Vera has encountered is simple and beautiful.

Of course, this is also because of her noble status and she is well protected.

However, Vera is not without understanding of evil.

But, she has never met someone like Colin.

The brave and fearless knight? A resourceful genius? Elegant and polite gentleman? The devil who plays with people's hearts?

...

She doesn't know which one is his true face.

Or, are these all?

Compared to Vera, who is not fully mature, Bliss's reaction is much simpler.

The battle-tested knight pays more attention to practical results: "The strategy you are sure of will be effective? You know, the Marquis Charles had a similar plan."

"You're talking about the Battle of Mirror Lake, right?" Colin seemed to have known Bliss would ask.

"That's right."

"Yes, I must admit that my strategy was inspired by the Marquis Charles." Colin said earnestly, actually rolling his eyes in his heart.

Fighting against the water, breaking the boat, setting the dead and reborn, etc., are not new strategies in another time and space.

But in this time and space, it hasn't appeared yet.

The arrangement of the Marquis of Charles in Jinghu does have the embryonic form of a last stand.

But from Colin's point of view, Marquis Charles's handling of details is terrible.

The details, however, determine success or failure.

is also a place of death and resurrection. Han Xin can fight the classic case of a lasting fight in Jingxing, but Ma Di can only defeat the street pavilion and become an eternal joke.

Colin is confident that he will not become another horse scorpion.

Bliss obviously did not have such confidence, and continued to ask with a cold face: "The strategy of Marquis Charles did not succeed in Jinghu. Why do you think you can use a similar strategy to succeed in the running river?"

"Because the Marquis Charles made two big mistakes!

First of all, his heart is not cruel enough! Although Jinghu Daying was backwatered, it was not truly a desperate situation. Just think about the defeated soldiers. Many of them escaped by jumping into the lake.

Therefore, I chose this bend of the rushing river.

It is surrounded by water on three sides, the current is rapid, and the downstream is the waterfall cliff, there is no way to escape, it is a real desperate situation.

Here, they can only fight to the death! "

Bliss's expression moved slightly, and he continued to ask: "Then what about the second mistake?"

"The second mistake of the Marquis was that he did not leave anyone in the Jinghu camp who could lead the soldiers to fight to the death." Colin waved his hand to Bliss, "I'm not saying you are not qualified..."

"I really don't have the qualifications, and I escaped." Bliss didn't mind.

Colin admired the Grim Rider more and more, nodded and continued:

"Under the circumstances at the time, Jinghu Camp needed a noble with sufficient prestige, a lord with a title, in order to stabilize the temporary conscripts, let them resist, and create enough for the trolls. Trouble.

In this way, the Marquis of Charles led his army to enter from behind the troll, and flanked by both sides, there is a chance of winning.

It's a pity, but the Marquis-sama did not leave enough figures in Jinghu Camp...

But we will not make such a mistake! "

Speaking of this, UU Reading Colin took a step forward, approached Vera, and stared closely at her eyes: "So this time, I will stay in the river bay as the first heir to the Baron Graycastle. , Live and die with those soldiers.

Ms. Vera, I don’t know you..."

"Of course I will stay." Vera said without hesitation.

At this time, she has decided to trust Colin again.

Of course, she has no other choice.

Everyone here has actually been calculated by Colin.

Colin nodded and turned to Bliss: "Knight Bliss, please lead the cavalry to stay away from the river bend temporarily. When the trolls attack us, you will lead the army to fight out from behind!"

Bliss's eyes flickered: "Why don't I stay in the river bend, you lead the cavalry..."

"No!" Colin immediately rejected Bliss's proposal, because he knew it was Bliss's temptation.

Those who stay on the frontal battlefield are the most dangerous, while those who lead the cavalry have the possibility to escape.

Therefore, in order to make the other party believe in himself, Colin can only choose to stay: "The people who stay in the river bend need to have enough weight. I am more suitable to stay than you. Moreover, those cavalry are your subordinates, and you are the ones who will stay. Only by leading can better exert their combat effectiveness."

Bliss's eyes changed slightly, as if it was only then that he recognized that Colin had passed his test, and nodded in agreement.

Then, Colin glanced at Vera again: "I know you are noble, so if you can reveal your true identity before the war, then it will greatly inspire those soldiers.

Of course, if you have concerns, I won’t force it..."

Vera was stunned and did not speak.

Just when Colin thought the other party was unwilling, he heard a clear and firm voice:

"it is good!"
