"What, sir, do you want to go on the Northern Expedition?"

Everyone in the conference room was stunned after hearing Xiao Feng's idea. This proposal was too bold. Going out of the city to go on a northern expedition and working hard with orcs in the wild?

All of a sudden, all kinds of pictures flooded into the minds of the leaders present. Kyle, Bloom, Friday, Charisman, Keira, Bilodis, Groin, Dean, etc., everyone was caught up in it for a while.

There was a strange state of silence, as if someone had hit him on the head, and he didn't know how to respond to Xiao Feng.

Although under the leadership of Xiao Feng, they have established a firm foothold on the Pennivera Peninsula and established their own territory, they are all protected by the high wall of Riverrun City.

They were able to repel the incoming orcs one after another before, relying on the high walls and thick walls of the city and defense. But now they have to go out of the city to fight the orcs, they don't have much confidence, even under the leadership of Xiao Feng

under.

After all, they have experienced firsthand how powerful the orcs are in field combat. In the wild, without the protection of city walls, fighting with the orcs in the wild, in their opinion, is no different than committing suicide.

Although they have won several consecutive victories against the orcs before, they were all achieved by hiding behind the tall city wall, and a large part of it was due to the geographical advantages here, and the city wall was blocked.

The battlefield prevents the orcs from investing too many troops at once.

But it's different in the open wilderness. Those half-orcs have advantages in strength, speed, etc., and there are no restrictions on the terrain. Once they surge up from all directions, plus those half-orcs who are not afraid of death,

Style, just thinking about the scenes of close combat with orcs makes everyone shudder.

"Sir, although we have confidence in you, is it too hasty to decide to go out of the city to fight the orcs in the wild?"

Xiao Feng had great prestige in everyone's hearts, so even though everyone had deep doubts about his ideas, no one dared to reveal it easily. The conference room was silent for a while, and finally the mature and steady Kyle took the lead in speaking.

"Haha, no, this plan is not hasty. In fact, I have been thinking about it for a long time. I have learned before that in the last winter, including this spring, the orcs have never appeared near our city wall, and our

The scope of investigation has even spread to ten miles north of the city wall, what does this mean?"

Xiao Feng knew that most of the people here were defeated by the orcs, and had been defeated by the orcs many times in the wild, so if he wanted to get them to agree with his idea, he had to convince them, otherwise they would not be unified in their thinking.

, it is very easy for something to happen in the wild in the future.

The people present had never studied Sun Tzu's Art of War, so they didn't know much about battlefield psychology. Xiao Feng knew much more about this aspect than they did.

Seeing everyone's confused expressions, he smiled and explained to them: "This shows that in the previous wars, we have hurt the orcs and made them scared, so they took the initiative to shrink their sphere of influence.

, Otherwise, do you think these guys who still have their bestiality and rely solely on instinct to do things would shrink back like this?"

As soon as he said these words, everyone present fell into deep thought. It is true that in the Orc Alliance, the upper-level generals knew some strategies and some were considered tactical masters, but in terms of strategy, they were really not that good.

If they thought Riverrun was easy to bully and it was no big deal, I'm afraid they would have brought the Soldier Peak under their noses long ago, which is what they did last year.

But when the ape-man general led his army and suffered losses under Riverrun City, their sphere of influence quickly shrank and they retreated. This must be because they were afraid.

"It can be said that the last battle to defend the city was a turning point between us and the orcs in this area. In the spring of this year, not only did the orcs not come to provoke, not even a ghost was seen, or they chose

They have entered a state of strategic contraction, or their main force is fighting elsewhere now and they don't want to pay attention to us for the time being. In any case, in my opinion, they are definitely in a state of insufficient strength in this area now.

."

Xiao Feng's words made everyone present fall into deep thought, and he continued.

"Given the temperament of the orcs, what do you think will happen to them after they regain their strength or complete their conquest of other areas? Will they continue to sit back and watch us develop and grow?"

"Definitely not!"

Keira replied that everyone present now has basically been guided by Xiao Feng's ideas. Indeed, what you said is right. Once the orcs regain their strength, given their character, they will definitely come to retaliate. And when that happens,

How many people will they send?

The first time they came, a thousand people came, the second time they came more than 10,000 people, and the third time more than 30,000 people came. What about the fourth time? I'm afraid it will come in the form of a thunderous force, right?

When thinking of the overwhelming scene of orcs charging on the battlefield, everyone present felt a chill down their backs.

"Now we have more than 60,000 people in Riverrun City, more than 30,000 people in Twin Towers City, and we already have 100,000 people on the entire peninsula. But in my opinion, these are not enough. We need

More manpower to develop the peninsula behind us and accumulate more strength to prepare for future confrontations? So now is a good time. Taking advantage of the lack of strength of the orcs on the opposite side, we should take the initiative to liberate more

of human beings!”

As soon as Xiao Feng said this, no one objected anymore. It is true that their tribe is now on the verge of becoming a nation, but its only weakness is the insufficient population.

Now is not a time of peace, where we can quietly hide in a corner of the mainland to recuperate, but there are orcs on the north side of the city wall watching eagerly!

Therefore, if you want to quickly develop and strengthen your strength, there is nothing that can bring greater help to the tribe than going out to liberate more humans and plunder more orcs as slaves.

Seeing that everyone present had stopped raising their voices to object, Xiao Feng immediately said: "Then this matter is settled, Kyle, Bloom, Friday, Bilodis, Dean, you will follow me north to Riverrun.

Three thousand regular troops, plus three thousand auxiliary troops, went out to fight together. Keira, you, Charles Mann, and Groin, with the three thousand soldiers brought from Twin Towers City, are responsible for guarding Riverrun and organizing logistics.

Maintain order at the base and be prepared to accept refugees and prisoners."

After all, Xiao Feng's status is special, and what he just said has convinced everyone. At this time, his decision is final, and no one will object anymore.

The Northern Expedition was finalized, and the mobilization order was issued. The logistics preparation methods that Xiao Feng had given to Kyle and Charisman also came into effect at this time. Various weapons, equipment, and food began to be used.

They were transported from the warehouse and distributed to the soldiers.

In fact, just like modern warfare, even in ancient wars, logistics was fought, but in ancient times, not many people noticed this.

In the modern world, it was not until the appearance of "On War" summarized by the German military scientist Clausewitz that the importance of logistics to a war was first mentioned.

Later, countless of his disciples carried forward the ideas of this book, and after countless wars, they refined and summarized them, and finally came to the conclusion that war is the importance of logistics!

If you want soldiers to play their due role on the battlefield, you cannot ignore the impact of logistics on morale.

Xiao Feng brought this theory to this era. It can be said that this idea is very advanced.

Before that, in this world, ordinary soldiers, except for knights, were all cannon fodder in the eyes of military nobles from all over the world. Knights were the real soldiers, and they had to undergo many years of training and many trials.

In war, only after you have considerable war experience and corresponding achievements can you be named a knight, that is, a minor noble.

As for ordinary soldiers, they are gray animals. They usually farm and graze. During the war, they are temporarily captured to make up for their numbers. The only role of these soldiers on the battlefield is to strengthen their courage and complete various missions of filling holes.

As for the life and death of these ordinary soldiers, the nobles don't care at all, let alone the weapons, equipment and supplies, haha.

According to Xiao Feng's understanding, ordinary soldiers in this world must obey the recruitment orders of noble lords when a war breaks out. They even have to bring their own weapons, equipment and dry food to join the lord's army to complete combat missions and compete with the Chinese.

There was no difference between corvee service and slave soldiers in ancient China.

The only advantage is that if they win the war, they can get a certain share of the spoils, but if they fail, it will be a disaster.

Therefore, such soldiers can play some role on the battlefield when the wind is blowing.

Xiao Feng doesn't need such soldiers. What he wants are elite soldiers who dare to fight. This is the main reason why he has not expanded the size of his army. Three thousand elite soldiers are much more powerful than thirty thousand miscellaneous soldiers.

For these three thousand elite soldiers, Xiao Feng has never been stingy with resources. This can be seen very clearly in the weapons and equipment.

Almost everyone is equipped with iron armor. Although it is a slightly rough iron armor made by Groin and others, it is enough. These armors may not be of much use against orcs, but at least they can provide the soldiers with very strong protection.

A sense of security can greatly improve their morale.

All the soldiers were equipped with sophisticated spears, with spears measuring 2.8 meters each, giving them a relatively far enough attack range when facing tall and strong orcs.
