Power and Empire Chapter 1656: Grid (1)
"No, there must be something missing! The other party's arrangement cannot have no support point"
In the dark legion office, Gaul’s Eighth Legion commander Hebery was bent over, looking wildly at the crossed maps of the two warring sides, looking for something crazily, as an experienced commander of the large legion. Heberi’s Eighth Army, along with the Sixth Army, known as the "Tiger Army" of the Empire, was favored by the Emperor Gaul at the same time. As a strategic force to suppress the southwest and northwest, it showed that the Eighth Army was not superficial. It looks so vulnerable,
Although he found that he was passive, Hebery still noticed something from the enemy's fierce attack. Is it Dutru?
Hebbery's gaze suddenly stopped. It was the birthplace of the Northwestern Rebels marching straight forward. It was the culprit that caused his Eighth Army to fall into a disadvantaged situation before the war, according to the current split by the enemy. In the situation, if you are still deploying with the mentality of a full battle, then you must be a place to die. The current situation is like this. There are 110,000 people in the Gaul Eighth Army, but it is formed by the enemy's 60,000 troops. The dividing net is cut open, like a giant beast trapped by countless ropes,
"In the grid-like dividing line, it makes people feel embarrassed, and calmly integrates local superior forces with ease, and finally eats one of my infantry regiments and one infantry regiment! This should be the opposite military **** Think about it!"
Hebbery whispered to himself, looking at the area marked Ditru Highland, suddenly a trace of calmness appeared in the corner of his mouth, careless! Hebery let out a triumphant smile, "Come here, inform Ma Yesuk of the 4th Infantry Regiment and Roy Gayn of the 5th Infantry Regiment to come to me" Hebery yelled to the guard at the door
Soon, two young infantry regiment leaders appeared in front of him. Because the regiment headquarters were removed, the two infantry regiment commanders had to be temporarily transferred back to the regiment headquarters, and their troops served as the regiment reserve. At present, all infantry regiments are fighting independently and have no time to take care of it. On the contrary, the two infantry regiments that were accidentally transferred back did not appear in the ranks of the Falcon cavalry continue to attack, giving Hebery a chance to turn the tide of the battle. /
"Lord of the Legion!" Roy Gayne and Ma Yesuk stood up neatly and saluted Hebery. The faces of both of them looked a little embarrassed, who would say that they weren't. Before the battle was fought, their regiment was turned upside down. A quarter of the casualties, this has become a joke of the Eighth Army. Before being transferred to the Western Front, the Eighth Army had the nickname "Leather Army" on the eastern battlefield, which was described by the Chinese people. The combat power is not the most prominent, but like a piece of leather, it always makes the opponent think that it has been defeated, and still stands tenaciously there.
The current situation is the same. The Falcon Army made a strong advance with a total of 60,000 troops. The fierce general Saran led 20,000 cavalry troops to the dust, and broke through the regiments of three infantry regiments in a row. Later, a 40,000 army headed by the fat man personally attacked. If it were an ordinary opponent, even if they had the same strength, they would have long been beaten out of control under the cooperation of the two monarchs and ministers who had a tacit understanding.
However, the Eighth Army of the Cowhide Army can still form a staggered situation with the Falcon Army even when it is scattered.
To some extent, the self-help operations of the Infantry Regiment of the Eighth Army miraculously blocked the frontal attack of the fat man named as the God of War. Although it was only short-lived, things on the battlefield were ever-changing, and no one. I dare say that the dawn of the goddess of victory will not come to me just because of a short few minutes. For example, the Lord will be shè in the stream and the battle flag will be blown down by the strong wind. Because of such a sudden change, the army will be defeated. There are not a few in history.
"How's your two troops rested?" Hebery looked up at the two infantry commanders standing in front of him with helmets in his hands.
"Of course, there is no problem at all, I can go to the battlefield at any time!" Roy Gayn, who likes to show off, said vigorously in front of Ma Yesuk.
"Is there really any problem?" Hebery got up from his seat, flashing his gaze over the two tense infantry captains. This time, he thought that he would reverse the unfavorable situation in one fell swoop and would go deep into it. The Falcon Army in his hinterland swallowed it in one bite. The impossibility formed invisibly makes him rise infinitely
"Except for some troops attrition due to illness and equipment rusting in the rain, really...no problem!" Roy Gayn felt the heavy pressure from the legion commander and lowered his head in embarrassment. Ma Yesuk also quickly stated that they are all minor problems. If the army headquarters has an order, his infantry regiment will not shrink even if it fights to the last person.
"If this is the case, I will issue a combat order!"
He Baili’s face turned serious, and the two infantry regiment commanders hurriedly stood up again, with overjoyed gods on their faces. I didn’t expect to be able to return to the battlefield so soon. This time, it’s better. Roy Gayn almost laughed out loud after his performance was overturned and took back all the face he had lost before. It should be that the guys on the front line can't stand it anymore. The commander of the army has no choice but to send the last reserve team. , Everyone said that they are heroes before, so don’t call for reinforcements if you have the ability.
"Order, the Fourth Infantry Regiment and the Fifth Infantry Regiment set off immediately, two days later, I want to see you take down the Dutru Heights!" The voice of Hebaili has a cold taste.
"What, Dutruh Heights?"
Roy Gayne is stupid, the first thought that flashed through his mind was that the legionary commander was only taking revenge privately.
He quivered and said, "My lord, if you want me to apologize for death, just say it straight. There is no need to let tens of thousands of soldiers die with us. It is impossible to win Dutrou in two days. Tens of thousands of Northwestern rebels were not killed from the gap in Ditru Highlands. They are now at the risk of being surrounded and blocked by the Northwestern rebels and marching toward the dangerous Dutru Highlands. It is tantamount to being in front of you. All the Northwestern rebels yelled, "If you don’t kill me, I’m not a man", the entire Northwestern rebels will rush forward!
"My lord, is this order too hasty!" Mark Yesu, who doesn't speak much next to him, also has a timid look on his face at this time.
"Are you two idiots?" He Baili saw that his wonderful plan was misunderstood in this way. He was suddenly red, and he put his hand under the heavy hammer on the map on the table, and said sharply, "Our No. The Eighth Army is scattered, so why not the enemy! The enemy wants to use inferior forces to eat us through interspersed tactics. For them, our army is distributed like sand. Isn’t it a huge grid that can strangle the enemy, our army’s Therefore, it is so passive at present because all the troops are thinking about defense, but did not expect that in such a staggered situation, proactive attack is the best way to regain the initiative, and the mesh that can pull this big net is actually always there. Before my own eyes
"That's Dittru Heights!" As long as the outlets of this entire campaign are regained, all the intruding Falcons can be completely blocked! "Hebei Liben wanted to finish all the words in one breath, but watch The two dumbfounded subordinates could not help but show a helpless wry smile at the corners of their mouths
"Two infantry regiments. An army of forty thousand people, when I'm full, take you to death? To tell you the truth, as you approach Dutruh Heights, I will also order all eighth The army began to launch a counterattack. In this way, the Northwestern Rebels’ ability to return to Dutrou’s troops will be held back at the same time. Dutrou is simply a glory at your fingertips! If it weren’t for the burden of the entire legion, I’m here. Bai Li has already personally implemented this plan! Why are you still looking for you two idiots! Do you share the credit!"
"What the lord said, it seems to make sense! The subordinates are going to prepare... I didn't say anything just now. Oh, the weather today is really good." Roy Gayne was full of guilt. Thinking of my misunderstanding, I was a little at a loss, and quickly pulled Maek Yesu, who hadn’t recovered from his side, and left quickly
"Escape, so fast!" He Baili looked at the back of the two leaving. Taking a deep breath, he took a sip from the water glass on the table, and a little bit of cold water flowed into the dry throat. Sweeping his gaze over the intersecting battle map, although he had already asked for help from the Sixth Army in the same territory, the reply from the Sixth Army was "The army is gathering, and I asked the Eighth Army to insist, "It's just a jerk-like answer. Obviously, while waiting for him to fight with the Northwest rebels, another tiger came down the mountain. Because of this reply, Hebery was very angrily concealing the problem of the regional grain depot from the other party.
At noon, the 40,000 troops of the 4th and 5th Infantry Regiments moved towards the Dutrou area.
Standing on the tower, Hebery watched the dragon-like troops finally disappear into the horizon, feeling more or less apologetic. These young imperial soldiers will surprise Mesh Dittru by surprise, which will inevitably cause the Northwest. The strong resistance of the rebels must be very productive, but this can give other units of the Eighth Army a chance to counterattack. It is just that the Fourth and Fifth Infantry Regiments that were thrown out as bait can survive as much as possible. It’s really unknown,
"If you want to unlock this huge grid laid out by the opponent, someone has to come up and make sacrifices. The other infantry regiments are sticking to their positions. Only the fourth and fifth infantry regiments are the same. Helpless choice"
Hebbery withdrew his gaze from a distance, and looked up to see the sunken sky, countless white lines falling down like strings of pearls,
And to the southeast of Keyan Castle, the headquarters of the Eighth Army, a black army is silently walking through the white rain curtain
A black-clad messenger cavalry came galloping forward. Before he was stable, he jumped off his horse, ignoring the mud under his feet, and ran directly behind a fat figure standing on the top of the mound watching the terrain in front of him. Kneeling down on one knee, he sternly said, "Your Majesty, according to the following secret sentry report, the 40,000 troops sent by the enemy's headquarters to Dutrou have left"
"Pop!"
As if to foretell something, a shining red flash suddenly appeared, as if to uncover a piece of black cloud, revealing a large cloud of blood, and the soldiers kept their formation
"Oh, have you all gone far? Fortunately, I don't want to stand for two hours in vain." The fat man stood on a high place, his face looked a little absent, his gaze seemed to be floating in the air by the wind. The white clouds are the same as the previous costumes, a black domineering armor of the devil, without any obstruction, exposes himself to the attention of the soldiers, standing under the falcon banner that belongs to the most center of the legion.
Below him, the 15,000 people of the zhōngyāng regiment were scattered into slightly irregular quadrilaterals. The neatly arranged armors and spears could not see the end at a glance. If you want to defeat the 100,000 army in three days There is only one way, and that is beheading!
Just as Hebery saw that one end of the mesh was Ditru, but unfortunately he didn't see the other end of the mesh. In fact, it was himself, the commander of the Eighth Army of Gaul! The easiest and most effective way is to catch the horse first, and catch the king first. Actually, it was one day ago. The fat man’s 15,000 zhōngyāng guards were divided into more than a dozen stragglers, and in the form of interspersed, they have approached Keyan Fort where the Eighth Army Headquarters is located.
As the headquarters of the Eighth Army stationed in the Keyan Fort area, it has 11,000 direct troops, plus the 4th and 5th Infantry Regiment previously opened, with a total strength of 50,000. Because of the chaotic battle situation, he Baili had already been dazzled. There will be thoughts, the enemy directly hit the idea on his head,
"Enemy attack!" Ke Yanbao's stern shouts opened the prelude to the battle. Thousands of zhōngyāng army's crossbows were thrown into the air. The dense black spots even covered the sun's brilliance, and the strange and violent whistling sound broke The dream of the defenders of Keyan Fort,
The sound of "pupupupu" sharp weapon piercing in** and broken bones are like raindrops one after another
Three hours after the Fourth Infantry Regiment and the Fifth Infantry Regiment left Keyan Fort, the zhōngyāng army commanded by the fat man himself was sharp, and swooped at Keyan Fort, which was left with only 11,000 direct troops. There were 60 thunder gods lined up on a high place outside the city, and the world was immediately filled with terrible shocking sound. The 60 thunder gods violently bombarded the thick walls of Keyanbao, like waves slapped on the hard rock walls. Turned into splashes of scary scarlet,
"Asshole, what is this?"
Hebbery stood on the window sill of the tower and looked towards the outside. The pupils in his eyes were constantly shining with the explosion of fire. "Boom!" An arrow tower was leaning at a speed visible to the naked eye. Finally collapsed, the entire fortress was trembling in a violent explosion, and rubble flew across the wall. The exploded fire regiment raged like fire dragons, and the soldiers howled miserably, all burning flames and jumping off the towering city wall. Below the city wall, ten infantry formations composed of black northwestern rebels discharged one. The huge trapezoidal queue, behind 20 tall siege vehicles, hundreds of battle flags clashed in the night breeze, and the strong killing intent was like the flames of a prairie prairie rushing into the sky in the dark,
"How is it possible that I want to attack Ke Yanbao!"
For a moment, Hebery’s unbelievable face was like dirt. He was still complacent about his wonderful idea, but at this moment, he held himself as if he had fallen into the other party and arranged it long ago. Dutrou was the bait to lure his last reserve army out. This seemingly impossible plan, however, seemed so natural.
"Asshole, fight!" Hebery felt speechlessly frustrated. In his ears, a bugle representing the attack of the enemy outside the city resounded across the sky. The heavy infantry consisted of falcons directly under the guards. The phalanx starts to move slowly forward
Several shield walls composed of dense shields, shining golden light in the morning sun, the towering spear clusters have been put down, and ten heavy siege arrow towers that took several hours to assemble are in the army. Showing a hideous face, slowly approaching the south wall under the **** of the military formation
"Quick! Line up!" The Keyanbao defenders ran out from the Tibetan soldiers' cave in the inner wall of the city wall, "Whoo!" The archer quickly began to counterattack the approaching Falcon army, and countless arrows fell on the Falcon On the guard’s head, there was almost no hesitation,
"Assault!" The Falcon Guards held the cluster of arrows, and instead of retreating, they rushed towards the gate. Numerous sharp and cold infantry spears, clamoring for killing, were like dense forests suddenly in the air. At this moment, the siege shields were raised up high, and the siege shields lined up a tight shield wall at the front of the army formation, followed by the heavy infantry responsible for breaking through the enemy’s obstruction, and then the light infantry responsible for widening the gap, and the crossbowman was the last of the army. Under the icy steel helmet, there are pairs of bloodshot eyes, full of thirst for blood,
"Attention, the left wing found the enemy!"
A chaotic sound suddenly sounded on the city wall, and a dense cluster of black spots rose from a distance. These black spots swept across the sky like a flock of crows, and then heavily drawn a downward arc~IndoMTL. com~Smashed into the cracked wall of Keyanbao with the force of thunderbolt, Gaul soldiers and soldiers were crumpled to death like slices of wheat seedlings.
"The right side is coming up too!"
The rocks screamed, the smashed building creaked, "Papa" After the loss of three siege vehicles, the huge siege vehicle finally leaned against the wall of Keyanbao, widening and thickening Blocking the food is like a big mountain lowering from the height of the battlement, slamming it on the mouth of the battlement, "crossbow shè!"
In a moment, countless white lines rushed out from behind the lowered baffle like magic. The Gaul soldiers were forming a queue at the interface, and they were immediately turned over. Then the crossbowmen retreated, and the falcon guards. The infantry unceremoniously rushed out with a shield, and the exit of the car was covered with densely packed heavy crossbowmen.
The Gaul archer on the opposite side of "shè" also turned to the siege tower at the same time. The clusters of arrows attacking each other crossed the sky like a swarm of locusts. The passage of the tower vehicle connected to the army formation below, and there were continuous soldiers coming from the tower. The car fell down, and immediately there were new soldiers to make up for it,
‘Kill’
The long and narrow corridors for cars have become a see-saw battlefield for both sides, just like monsters constantly devouring soldiers from the enemy and us.
As a unit directly under the legion, the Gauls are very tenacious in combat. Although they have been defeated several times, they are still strangling with the falcon guards and heavy infantry who rushed up. The spears pierced the chests of the soldiers on both sides, and the blood came from The battlements splashed down,
"Pay attention to the city gate" With a stern cry of despair, the wooden city gate of Keyan Fort, which was bombarded by Thor, crashed into fragments
