Heart of Empire Chapter 484: Confrontation
Proud Victorians don't want to retreat without a fight. They have been fighting with the most elite army of the orc tribe for many years, so how could they put a newborn country on the wasteland in their eyes?
What's more, the main force of the coalition army is not composed of Victorians, so they are even less afraid.
It is always very simple to ask others to die.
But for the two Earls Sade and Sneijder, things are completely different.
If the decisive battle is really fought, and if the battle is lost, the Victorian knights can still break through with their own strong skills-and they are all cavalry-but the troops of Florence and Pudry , In this desert, how many people can escape to the sky is an uncertain thing.
Although, before starting the war, it is not a good sign to imagine the situation of defeat. But judging from the current situation, the two earls will not be blindly optimistic. They do have a rather pessimistic view on the upcoming battle.
As a result, the discussion between the three commanders of the coalition army turned into a dispute, and then into a quarrel.
In the end, Sneijder left 'I will never take Pudry's boys to die! ’ After such a sentence, he just turned his face away and left.
Admiral Mars also had a rather ugly expression on his face. He cursed secretly in his heart, and then turned his gaze to Sade.
Earl Sade is not as irritable as Sneijder, but this is because he still shoulders the responsibility of the commander in chief of the coalition forces, so it is not easy to turn his face directly. But he was also dissatisfied with Mars in his heart, and he only heard him say: "General Mars, if you want to continue fighting, it's okay, but we can't blindly fight with Schindler without intelligence. Our scouts can't take advantage of our opponents, and our air cavalry also suffered heavy losses in the process of scouting. If you really want to continue this war, then you can Do you want your Victorian knights to go out?"
Mars said: "You want us to be scouts?"
Thad shrugged his shoulders and said, "It seems that we don't have many other choices, don't we?"
Mars said angrily: "Stop joking! We are the Knights of Victoria. Haven't you heard of us? Hmm? How can you say that my heavy cavalry will be scouts?"
The president of the coalition forces spread his hands and said, "It seems that there is really no way for us to reach a consensus."
"Shit!" Mars cursed, turned and left.
…
"Those **** from the west have been staying where they are for three days. They don't have any conspiracy?"
The one who said this was Brigadier General Colthello. The elf officer who wanted to compete for the position of general two years ago finally got his wish and became a general—although it was only a brigadier general.
After the establishment of the Kingdom of Schindler, Dane felt that there seemed to be a missing link in his military system, a link to be promoted from a senior officer to a general. According to Dane's vision, the colonel should be at the top of the officer system, and the major general should be the one who can stand on his own. Generally speaking, a major general is qualified to command a front army, at least he should be able to lead an entire army.
However, the kingdom doesn't have so many legions that can be led by others. However, those veteran officers who followed Dane to the north and south had to have a way to be promoted, and it was not good to keep them in the position of colonel forever.
So, the rank of brigadier general came into being. Generally speaking, the rank of brigadier general is awarded to the commander of the garrison army in a region, or the deputy commander of the main army army, or the direct commander of the key elite troops.
Colthero has now reached the rank of brigadier general, and besides leading a unit in the Cormyr sub-corps, he also serves as the deputy commander of the army and has become Patience's right-hand man.
"I don't think so." Major General Airdell on the other side said, "I think these guys are afraid to move on."
Patience said: "That's right, I thought so too. Their scouts suffered heavy losses, and the air cavalry was also destroyed by Colonel Sebo's air formation three days ago. They should be frightened Already."
"Poor ghost." Colthello said, and then, with an eager look, he urged: "Shall we take this opportunity to launch an active attack?"
"I don't think so." Sacco said, now that he has the rank of major general, he has taken over the position of the head of the White Wolf Legion, and has become one of the high-ranking officials of the king's side. "Your Majesty's order is We are required to conduct defensive operations here. Don't forget our mission, we just need to ensure that the enemy will not continue to advance eastward from the barren land pass. Although the enemy does not look that difficult to deal with, looking at their barracks, it is obvious that There is still a certain risk in launching an active attack without following us."
Korthello curled his lips, and he looked at Patience. Admiral Patience is the commander in chief of this war.
General Elf said: "We really shouldn't take risks at will. Since the enemy has stopped moving, we don't need to start the war lightly. It's good to keep the situation like this. Colthello, we need to strengthen the scout troop's reconnaissance Strength, we must keep an eye on these guys. At the same time, you guys, don’t be too reckless and impulsive. Confrontation between scout troops is allowed. We must continue to implement the strategy of suppressing the opponent’s scout scouts. However, I absolutely don’t allow you to To launch an attack on the enemy's large forces, all important actions must be carried out with my consent, do you understand?"
Colselo said: "Understood, Madam Commander, you are the commander-in-chief."
"It's good to know ~IndoMTL.com~ In the following period of time, the border between Schindler and the Principality of Florence has been in a state of tension. The two armies confronted each other like this, Xiao Conflicts of large and small scale often occur and never stop.
However, the seemingly tense situation where a decisive battle may start at any time is actually quite stable. The coalition forces of Florence and Pudry did not dare to move a single step when they were suppressed in all aspects. And Patience didn't intend to take any risks. This confrontation seemed to last for a long time.
However, this does not mean that peace between the Kingdom of Schindler and the coalition forces will continue like this. Instead, a bigger storm was brewing further south.
That's the ocean.

Someone is talking about mercenaries, um...
The Mercenary is probably the first novel I read in its entirety, and it had a great influence on me. I still have a full set of genuine physical books of "The World of Mercenaries". (83 Chinese website)
