Chapter 75 Inspiration

dawn.

Kingdom of Lund, Heron City.

In order to prevent the Carolingian Kingdom from attacking at night, the walls of Heron City will be patrolled and guarded by a sufficient number of soldiers no matter day or night, watching every move of the Carolingian Kingdom army outside the city.

Just yesterday, the king of the Lund Kingdom took out a large sum of money and rewarded the generals and soldiers of Heron City.

Inspired by the king's money, the morale of the defenders in the city of Heron, which had been somewhat low before, immediately rose and became more motivated.

The soldiers who were observing the movement of the enemy troops outside the city on the city wall also showed their full energy and carefully observed the movement of the enemy troops, not daring to relax or slack off.

At this time, the sun finally rose slowly from the eastern horizon.

The original pitch-black sky also began to fade slowly, and the first beam of sunlight finally penetrated through many obstacles and hit the earth, the warmth of the sun dispelled the coolness of the night.

Although they finally made it through the night, the soldiers on the walls of Heron City still didn't dare to relax, and were still obsessively observing the movement of the Carolingian Kingdom's army outside the city.

At this moment, the Carolingian Kingdom Army outside the city suddenly had a new movement——

"Quick! Go and report to the king!" An officer on the city wall anxiously said to the adjutant next to him, "The Carolingian army outside the city has lifted the siege and withdrawn!"

...

"What?" said the King in a trembling voice, "Say it again!"

"Yes!" An officer standing in front of the king said excitedly, "The enemy troops outside the city have lifted the siege! Withdraw!"

The king stood up abruptly.

"Really?!"

"Yes! It's true!"

The king immediately pushed away the officer standing in front of him, and walked towards the city wall, and the king's guards quickly followed the king.

After the king climbed the wall, he looked out of the city.

Outside the city, the flags that had been planted like a forest had all disappeared, and only a few isolated wooden fences remained where the Carolingian Kingdom's army should have been stationed.

"Really... have you retreated?" the king murmured.

Afterwards, the king raised his hands and rubbed his eyes vigorously, then looked out of the city again.

However, no matter how many times he looked at it, the scenery outside the city was the same.

"Your Highness! The enemy has retreated!"

"Your Highness! The siege of Heron City has been lifted!"

...

The generals and civil servants around the king surrounded him excitedly, and everyone had the same look of ecstasy on their faces.

And the king now had a dazed smile on his face. He still couldn't believe that the enemy army who had been defending their Heron City aggressively had retreated without warning.

At this time, the king suddenly remembered the letter sent by the Britannia Empire yesterday: [Our army encountered obstacles at the Ferry of Yiren. In order to rescue the city of Harun faster, we decided to change our strategy. Please continue to stick to it. , the siege of Heron City will be lifted soon].

"The siege of Heron City will be lifted soon" flashed quickly in the king's mind over and over again.

"The knights and soldiers of the Britannia Empire!" The king suddenly shouted, "Thank you for saving our Lund Kingdom!"

While the king thanked him loudly, tears glistened in his eyes.

Although the king didn't know what the relief army of the Britannia Empire had done, causing the enemy troops that had surrounded their city of Heron to break the siege and retreat, the king still thanked him loudly from the bottom of his heart.

It's a pity that Su Cheng is not here.

If Su Cheng heard the king's thanks here, he would definitely say mercilessly: "I haven't decided the winner with Allen yet, so don't be too happy.

"

...

At this time, the Britannia Imperial Army camp.

In the coach's camp.

Su Cheng, who took over the position of the commander-in-chief of the entire army, was quietly looking at a map on the table in front of him.

Since he became the commander-in-chief of the whole army yesterday morning, Su Cheng began to seize any spare time and repeatedly looked at the map of the border area between the Carolingian Kingdom and the Lund Kingdom and the map of the Carolingian Kingdom.

Read the map when riding on horseback, read the map when the army is resting, and read the map while eating.

From yesterday morning to now, Su Cheng has looked at the map for nearly 10 hours.

Both the Carolingian Kingdom and the Lund Kingdom are small countries as big as sesame seeds, so during these 10 hours, Su Cheng has already merged various places in the Carolingian Kingdom with the Carolingian Kingdom and the Lund Kingdom. The terrain, hydrology and other information of the junction area were firmly remembered in my mind.

But even so, Su Cheng was still looking at the map over and over again.

Su Cheng is 100% sure that Allen will definitely gather all his troops to stop him.

Therefore, it is not difficult to attract Allen to lead the army.

The most difficult part now is to find a suitable place to meet the interception of the Allen Army!

Su Cheng imagined finding a suitable place to ambush them on the only way Allen came to block them.

That's why Su Cheng looked at the map so frantically, the purpose was to find a suitable place to ambush the Allen Army!

However, the Carolingian Kingdom is too small, and the territory is full of plains. No matter how Su Cheng searched, he couldn't find a suitable place to use as an ambush site.

"Can't find the ambush point...it's not good..." Su Cheng muttered, frowning.

At this time, Alan's voice came from outside the tent:

"Brother! I'm coming in! I brought you some water!"

After hearing his sister's voice, Su Cheng's original frowning brows relaxed, with a faint smile on his face, he said:

"come in."

After getting his brother's consent, Alan lifted the curtain of the military tent and walked in with two glasses of water in his hand.

"Here, brother, drink some water and take a break." Alan said while handing Su Cheng a glass of water.

"Ah, I need to take a break."

Su Cheng was so tired that he leaned back on the back of the chair, and then took the glass of water from Alan.

After receiving the water, Su Cheng poured it directly into his mouth.

Alan gave him a glass of warm water very thoughtfully, and the warm water slid down his esophagus to his stomach, feeling the warmth from his stomach, Su Cheng felt as if his whole body had relaxed,

After seeing Su Cheng take the water glass and drink it down, Alan also raised the water glass he was holding in the other hand and started to drink too.

After taking a sip of the water in his glass, Alan said: "Brother, you should pay attention to rest, don't be too tired, I think you have been looking at the map since yesterday, and it is not good if you break your body gone."

"Ah, I'll try my best." Su Cheng rubbed his temples with a wry smile, "It's just that I'm the commander-in-chief of the entire army now, and I bear the lives of 86,000 people on my shoulders, so I'm thinking of a winning strategy and successfully implementing it to defeat the enemy." I can't relax in front of the enemy."

"Brother, have you come up with a good plan now?"

"No, I can't think of anything." Su Cheng said bluntly, "I want to find a suitable place to ambush the enemy, but no matter how I search, I can't find a suitable ambush point, so I'm thinking about it now. Do you want to change your plans?"

At this moment, a small bug crawled across the wooden table in front of Su Cheng.

And this little bug happened to be discovered by Alan.

"Hey, there are worms!" Alan frowned in disgust.

Alan, like most girls, has a natural hostility towards creatures like bugs.

Alan raised the water glass in his hand, and then threw it at the bug that was crawling on the wooden table.

The water in the glass slipped out of the glass in a beautiful parabola, and hit the bug precisely, flushing the bug off the table.

Looking at the bug washed away by the water, Su Cheng suddenly felt as if a lightning flashed across his mind.

He had an idea just now!

But this inspiration is fleeting like a flash of lightning, and Su Cheng recalls the sudden flash of inspiration just now, but he can't remember it at all.

And the more he thought about it, the more anxious he became. This inspiration seemed to be suspended in the air, floating flickeringly, no matter how Su Cheng jumped or tiptoed to reach it, he couldn't reach it.

You can see it, but you can't reach it.
