Corrine offered his opinion.

"The plans you made are indeed good, but if the war ends quickly, digging drainage ditches and building simple toilets will be a complete waste of time and energy of the soldiers."

Luo Ning understood what the other party meant, which was nothing more than charging forward with his men and attacking them directly.

He motioned to the two deputy captains, Philip and Thorstein, to take a look at the contents on the paper, and asked, "Baron Correan, you just said that the outcome can be decided within a day. I wonder if we will win or lose?"

"Of course we win!"

What Corian said was beyond doubt: "We have gathered so many troops now, how can the Porte Thieves fight against us?"

"So my suggestion is that we take a break today and tomorrow, and then we will attack them the day after tomorrow and take down Chishan Town in one fell swoop!"

Luo Ning really wanted to ask the other party what would happen if he failed, but considering his position as a commander, it seemed inappropriate to admit defeat before the battle even started, so he did not ask.

"I'd like to hear why the Baron is so confident. Also, we don't know the current strength of the Polante Thieves Group, so I'd like to trouble you to introduce it to everyone."

"My confidence comes from the gap in strength between the enemy and me!"

Corian's tone was very firm, which showed that he had enough confidence in his own side.

"Amycus, the leader of the Portal Thieves, is a golden knight. He may be a little stronger than Sir Toru, but as long as I cooperate with Toru, it won't be a problem to deal with him."

"Except for Amycus, there are only two silver-level members left in the Portal Thieves Group. One is their deputy leader, Holden, and the other is their capable general, Gilbert."

Corian's eyes swept across several silver knights in the hall.

"We have Marvin, Philip, Thorstein, Talen and my subordinate Briso, a total of five people, and they are all well-known Silver Knights. They are more than enough to deal with Holden and Gilbert!"

After he said this, the eyes of everyone in the hall lit up.

"The Baron is right!"

Brisso echoed, "Our current high-end combat power completely exceeds that of the enemy. We will have no problem defeating the enemy head-on!"

"Yeah~"

"Yeah~"

Many people nodded secretly.

"What do you think?" Roning looked at Marvin and Toru.

As these two were deputy commanders, he wanted to hear their opinions.

Viscount Marvin thought for a moment and said, "If the situation is really as Correan said, we can indeed attack head-on if we have a great advantage."

Toru added a comment: "As far as I know, the defenses of Chishan Town are basically arranged in the south to resist the enemies coming from Kasir Town. There are basically no defenses in the north."

Chishan Town was previously under the jurisdiction of Corian, and to its north was the Stone Territory, so naturally there was no need to set up any defensive fortifications.

"After the Polante Bandits took control of Chishan Town, they didn't have time to set up any defensive fortifications in the north. If we attack head-on, we have an advantage in personnel and no disadvantage in terrain."

Marvin continued, "I think we can follow Ronin's method to organize and form the noble coalition forces. This will facilitate battlefield command. We can simply handle the logistics. As for the time of attack, we need to discuss it again."

It can be seen that when it comes to offense, they prefer direct frontal assault.

In fact, if there is enough high-end combat power and a lot of middle-level combat power, Roning is also willing to attack head-on. The sooner the battle is resolved, the better.

But is this war really that easy? "Corian, let me ask you, how much do you know about the enemy's losses in the battle that night when Chishan Town was captured?"

Corey was stunned for a moment, his expression slightly hesitant, and after a while he shook his head.

"That night, the battle ended before the team I led reached Chishan Town. I don't know much about the enemy's casualties."

Luo Ning immediately said, "As far as I know, among the five knight squads stationed in Chishan Town, in addition to Deputy Captain Haan, there are two bronze knights, one of whom is at the peak of the bronze level and has half a foot in the silver level."

Corian's face suddenly turned ugly, perhaps because he felt that Roning was going to hold him accountable in public, which made him feel embarrassed.

"These three of them lead five knight teams, with more than sixty professional knights. With the terrain advantage and defensive fortifications of Chishan Town, even if the enemy has a golden knight, it is impossible for them to be defeated so miserably!"

They had just followed Corian's line of thought to compare the difference in troop strength and power between the enemy and us, but they had forgotten the disastrous defeat of the five knight squads of the Fifth Knights stationed in Chishan Town.

Deputy Captain Hahn is quite capable.

“It’s a bit strange indeed.”

Marvin's expression became serious. "The enemy was able to defeat Hahn and his team so quickly. There should be more than three top professional knights. Corian, your information is wrong, right?"

"impossible!"

Corian refuted firmly, "Although we have been enemies with the Polante Thieves Group over the years, we have also had trade exchanges during peacetime. We know their combat effectiveness very well!"

"According to the soldiers who were lucky enough to escape, the reason why Hahn was defeated was that they drank too much at night and neglected to defend. When the enemy crossed the defense line and killed them inside, they finally reacted, but by then it was too late."

"How credible are the words of the escaped soldiers?"

Luo Ning spread his hands and said, "But what you said is indeed one of the possibilities, but there is another possibility."

He paused for a moment, and seeing that everyone was listening quietly, he continued:

"That means the Polante Thieves have hidden their strength, or a stronger professional knight has joined recently. Hahn and his men are no match for them at all."

“It is possible.”

Everyone nodded.

"If the intelligence is incomplete, we do need to be more cautious."

With Ronin's hypothetical point of view being put forward, the following discussion shifted to "what to do if the enemy hides his strength."

Although no good solution was reached after a long discussion, Ronin's arrangement had to be implemented.

Because everyone knows that it is unlikely that the battle can be resolved within a day or two as Corian said.

After another round of discussion, a tentative plan was finally decided: Marvin, Toru, and Redar were responsible for the reorganization of the coalition forces;

Tarun and McCann were responsible for the defense and security of the camp;

The two deputy commanders Philip and Thorstein led the cavalry to be responsible for the periphery patrol and reconnaissance; the Stone Lord was responsible for the logistics work.

The reason why Ronin's measures were able to reach consensus and be implemented so quickly was mainly due to the fact that Toru, Marvin and others always stood on his side.

This is also thanks to Lu Lans' arrangement.

If Negan had also come to the Rock, there would probably be a fight over who has more say.

The bustling Stone Fortress finally quieted down, and Corian sat in the chair with a frown on his face and did not leave.

"Brissot, do you think Ronin is suspicious of me?"

His subordinate, Briso, also looked serious. "I'm not too sure, but in several conversations, he did make everyone subconsciously exclude your suggestion."

At the beginning of the meeting, Corrine's words still resonated with many people.

But after Roning put forward that hypothesis, the effectiveness of his words was much less than before.

Even during the final division of tasks, when Corian took the initiative to take on the outer security and reconnaissance work, he was rejected by Roning.

The reason is that the Stone Lords undertake a lot of logistical work, so it is more appropriate to let them be responsible for logistics.

Corian let out a long breath, digesting the unpleasantness of the meeting. "I take back my previous opinion. This Ronin is really good at doing things. No wonder he regained the favor of the Marquis."

Brisso smiled and said, "This further proves the necessity of our action!"

"Yes, it is necessary..." (End of this chapter)
