My name is Ren

Chapter 239 The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, and the greater the negative effects, how can everything go well

For three consecutive days, Heiman adopted the advice of the Byron Empire's staff, advanced layer by layer, and fought steadily, and surrounded Ortrenburg layer by layer.Looking at the city that may fall anytime, anywhere, whether it is the chiefs of those tribes or Charlie the Lionheart, they are all extremely satisfied with the current progress of the war.Almost 14 people besieged Ortrenburg, more than half the expected number, and the fall of Ortrenburg was only a matter of time.

Looking at the dark city wall, Charlie the Lionheart felt an inexplicable emotion in his heart.

During the reign of Orlando V, civil strife occurred in the Orlando Empire that spread across the country. The aristocratic groups raised a clear banner against the Golden Aristocratic Group headed by the Orlando family, and thus opened a war that could almost shake the foundation of the Orlando Empire.At that time, the Lord of the Byron Empire only hesitated for a few days and missed the opportunity. In the end, the two sides confronted each other here for a period of time and then returned in embarrassment.

It can be said that Ortrenburg was quickly built under the pressure of the Byron Empire. Without that confrontation, there would be no such a city, let alone today's war.

Just as he was looking into the distance, the sound of footsteps behind him disturbed his thoughts. He turned slightly and looked back. The huge lion's head suffocated the people behind him, and it took him a while to remember his mission.

"Master Charlie, the food delivery team has been looted by those nasty Desi fleas again..." The man was a little flustered. This job was not a good thing in the first place, and it was easy to be affected by the anger of the big man.At this moment, he was worried, and he lowered his head, not daring to look up at the lion's head in front of him.

Charlie was taken aback, and his erect pupils shrank slightly.This is already the seventh news that the logistics team has been robbed in the past two days.As Saul had predicted from the very beginning, the more people involved in the war, the heavier the logistical pressure would be. Without a systematic logistical support, it would be impossible to support this black man who claims to have 20 soldiers. barbarian army.There are no more prey to hunt in the mountains and forests near the Bell Grassland in the Salmei Mountains. The hunter team responsible for searching for prey must go deep into the jungle to obtain enough prey and food.They may not feel much now, but it won't be long before they understand that such a large-scale extinct hunting has brought destruction to themselves and themselves.

The prey in the mountains and forests are never herds of cattle and sheep. Basically, if you gather enough cars, you will send them to the front line.On such an extremely important transportation line, thousands or even tens of thousands of mercenaries are active.Compared with confronting the black barbarian army head-on, it is obviously easier to harass the supply line and gain more military exploits.The constant harassment has made Heiman's logistics team miserable. If there are more people in charge of escorting, fewer people will hunt.With fewer escorts, these Desi mercenaries will come to loot again.

In two days, seven teams have lost news, and more than a dozen teams arrived later than the scheduled time.These harassments and violations did not seem to have much impact on the course of the entire war, but in fact they were extremely deadly.The food carried by the black barbarian army has almost run out, and the rest can only rely on logistical supplies.This is why only 17 of the 12 black barbarian army served outside the city of Ortrenburg, and the remaining 5 people became logistics troops to hunt and transport food.

Each person has to hunt five people's food for a day to support the food consumption of the pillar army. This is definitely a terrifying and desperate number.

"Arrange people to sweep the supply line, and the safety of the supply line must be ensured." Charlie the Lionheart is not the leader of the coalition forces, but the chiefs all recognize his wisdom and ability. Unless it is a particularly important event, the chiefs are very happy Don't meddle in these seemingly complicated things. "Go and tell the chiefs, let them discuss it, allocate 2 people to be responsible for patrolling, and there must be no problems with our supply line."

The Heiman immediately bent down and turned around, and ran to send orders to Charlie. Charlie also had a particularly headache. The combat effectiveness of this group of Heiman was not bad, but their education level really gave him a headache.The lack of systematic knowledge required him to arrange for people to explain carefully for many common orders, and his efficiency was not even as good as that of a team composed of farmers, let alone fighting the Desi people on the opposite side.The only praiseworthy thing about these black barbarians is their individual quality and combat effectiveness.But the problem is that war is never a game for one person. No matter how powerful one person is, he can't do what a group of people can do.

He took it for granted at the beginning, but he didn't expect that after these powerful-looking black barbarians formed an army, they would behave so poorly, far less powerful than he had inferred.I'm afraid, that's the only way to go.Charlie glanced at the dog-like black barbarians not far away, and his eyes were filled with a kind of sarcasm. How could such a race want to contaminate the whole of Orlando?hehe…….

He naturally knew that these great chiefs were blinded by the superficial fighting power of the black barbarians at this time, thinking that the black barbarians alone could conquer the Orlando Empire.They don't even think about it, how can they traverse a country with a diameter of thousands of kilometers without even cavalry?Run on two legs?They are very good at running!
Lionheart was watching Ortrenburg, and someone in Ortrenburg was watching them.

The black barbarian army that is approaching and starting to rub against each other makes Renn have to devote more energy to observe the opponent. There is absolutely no problem with Sol's strategy and tactics. At least from his perspective, he can't find any obvious problems.The mercenary regiments operating outside constantly harassed and invaded the opponent's supply line. As the black barbarian army approached, their supply line became longer and longer. The mercenary's victory was very remarkable.But even with such a guarantee, Ren still can't completely relax. After all, this is a big war, a war in which more than 25 people have been invested by both sides, and the number of troops of one's own side is obviously not as good as that of the other side.

Standing on the top of the wall, the flag above the head fluttered in the wind blowing from the plain, looking at the Heiman in the distance, it was like standing on the seashore and looking at the reefs that appear and disappear from time to time.Saul was standing beside Ren, and Blair was protecting Ren with a long sword.

Compared with the seriousness on Ren's face, Saul was obviously much more relaxed.

After a few small frictions, all the troops supporting Ortrenburg became more honest, and most of them accepted the unified command of Ortrenburg and began to obey the arrangement.A small group of cavalry is naturally delivering food to the opponent, but a team of tens of thousands of cavalry is enough to form a huge combat force to destroy the opponent's defense line.The reason why there has not been a large-scale battle between the two sides is that this is a tactic Sol wants to achieve the greatest results with the lowest loss in order to reduce his own losses.

Although you may not lose if you fight hard, you will definitely win very badly. It is better to wait for the opponent to collapse first before going out to harvest.

Otherwise, just two ballistas and a power grid generator would be enough to make the black barbarians cry and howl in front of them!
"After all, they are beasts that walk upright. Even if they are armed, they are just beasts with weapons." The contempt in Sol's tone can't be hidden at all. Facing these black barbarians who have no chance of winning, he even thinks Not much pre-war excitement. "My lord, within five days at most, they will have riots."

"Oh?" Ren looked at Saul in surprise, "Why do you say that?"

Sol smiled slyly, "Because they will run out of food in two days at most." He pointed to the black army camp that was as dark as a dark cloud. Taking the camps as a whole, they are "stacked" together in a haphazard manner.The weather is so hot, and there are no woods around Ortrenburg, so it is impossible to use local materials. These black men all use the ground as a bed, or sit huddled together, or lie on the ground, watching It looks very funny.

"During this period of time, we can let the black barbarians get closer, so that the ballista and grid generator can have a stronger lethality. At that time, we will first destroy the opponent's will to resist, and then the [-] knight group will directly tear the opponent's body from it. Formation, divide these black barbarians into three parts, and the infantry will come out together, and the war will end in three days at most."

Hope it!
After a few days of calm, the situation that had been maintaining its rhythm suddenly became faster, and Heiman also attacked the city several times to no avail.This sudden change confirmed Sol's guess from the side, that the black man was short of food.

Part of the reason for the lack of food was the harassment of the supply lines by mercenaries, but more of the reason was that the climate this summer was too hot, which was already abnormally hot.Those fruits and stems are easy to handle. They are packed in baskets made of grass and vines and covered with fresh grass leaves. Although they are a little dry when they are transported to the front line, they are at least edible.On the contrary, meat occupies a large part of the Heiman diet. Because of the hot weather, it is often slaughtered in the morning, and it starts to stink in the evening, and it rots and deteriorates the next day.

There are no rivers and streams between the Salmy Mountains and Ortrenburg, so there is no water to cool and keep fresh, and it also prevents the black barbarians on the front line from getting meat supplements.It's like a Chinese on Earth, who occasionally skips the staple food for a few meals and only eats vegetarian dishes.But it's like this, and sometimes even if you can't even eat the leftovers, it will kill you.

Heiman, who could not get meat supplements and could not eat enough, began to get anxious. In addition to the lack of fruit stems, there were already signs of chaos, and the Heiman had to speed up the speed of the war.
