Power and Empire Chapter 1914: Who is the bait (5)
In the lobby of the Congolese Military Affairs Department in Besuka, the southern city of Congolese, the spring breeze blew across the windowsill with a bit of chill, and the bright sun shined through the colorful glass of the Military Affairs Department’s combat hall, shining on the Congolese Military Affairs Minister Marcos’ body, the old man who presided over the turbulent imperial ship, has revealed increasingly obvious powerlessness. His white temples are like snow, and his loose eyes are still piercing. He stands on the basis of Gangfei. In front of the giant sand table set up on the southern coast, the mark representing the Gangfei Southern Fourth Cavalry Regiment was dignified and placed on the place where Valenya Port was. Zoupi's hand retracted, and his eyes trembled slightly. With something difficult to explain
"How is the situation with the Fourth Southern Cavalry Regiment?" Marcos asked looking at the sand table
If you look from above the huge sand table in front of them, you will see within a hundred miles semicircle radiated by Valenya. Except for the 4th Cavalry Regiment, the 9th Infantry Regiment of the South is on the left, and the port is located. It is the 11th Infantry Regiment, on the right is the 7th Regiment, and the position of the backup is the mark of the 13th Infantry Regiment.
jagged signs, the total force of 57,000 troops from the Congo and African army, gathered in the direction of the Port of Waria, which is the main attack of the Falcon Empire fleet,
"There are heavy casualties!" The one who answered him was a middle-aged general with two golden stars on his shoulders. The Marquis Sterling, who had just been appointed as the combat officer of the Congolese Military Affairs Department, looked at his commander tired. Face, couldn’t help feeling in his heart, and said in a deep voice, “Why don’t you let the 4th Cavalry Regiment take down first? In just one day, the 7,000-strong corps battle damaged more than 5,700 people. Now the morale is low and it has not continued. It is necessary to continue the battle, and the fastest Ninth Light Infantry Regiment has arrived in Flora 20 miles away from Valenya Port. If necessary, it can be put into battle within three hours. Watermark advertising test Watermark advertising test makes the ninth light Come on the infantry regiment"
"No way, let the 9th Infantry Regiment go up now, it will arouse the suspicion of the opponent!"
Marcos frowned slightly and shook his head. Ning Sheng said
" guides the opposing fleet to force the decoy of Valenya Port. It is the most critical part of the entire combat plan. If the Ninth Infantry Regiment is replaced during the day, it will cause the entire combat plan to be exposed to danger, and we cannot risk it! Because this is the last chance for the Falcon Empire Navy’s tragic blow.” Marcos turned his head pale, rubbed his temples, and straightened his waist. Raise your head and look at the colored glazed light above your head
"Since the battle has begun, there is no possibility of stopping it. This is a battle between the empire’s life and death. The opposing army’s stalemate is waiting for the outcome of the southern coast war. If we can win, or can Eliminate the possibility of the opponent launching a land-based attack.
" At least you don't have to worry about being in the jī battle, and the rear is already in an embarrassing situation than the landing forces of the Falcon Empire!" Marcos smiled bitterly, every word, on the uniform. Gray hair, eyes full of bloodshot eyes that have not slept for a long time, with a heroic sorrow,
" But my lord, the Southern Fourth Cavalry Regiment is the elite guarding the south of the Empire, and even the Northern War did not mobilize. This time, in order to consume the Falcon’s naval ammunition, it had to be the fastest maneuver. With troops thrown into the deadly battle, thinking of the brave imperial cavalry braving the rain of artillery to charge towards the enemy, the hearts of the subordinates are bleeding." The voice of the combat officer Marquis Sterling was trembling with a hint of weeping,
" The imperial power is already stretched. Winter has passed. The spring breeze is not only the beauty of the recovery of everything, but also the aggressiveness of the two empires from the north and the south. In the south, the Falcon Empire Chen Zhongbing In the Phu Tau area, warships attacked the southern coast of Congo. In the north, the dominant 300,000 army of the Istanian Empire, with great strength, might look for opportunities to go south at any time. "Marcos glanced at him and said, "At this time, I can say. , As a soldier, sacrifice is loyalty. This is a gamble. In fact, as an ally of the Strands, when I received the combat plan sent by the Strands, I also felt a sense of improvement from my heart. It's so unfair!"
" Oh? "The combat officer Marquis Sterling was taken aback,
" It’s a shame for a commander to send his own people to death! Even for strategic needs! "Marcos sighed." I once questioned the Strands, since the two countries are united, why? Are we just off the army to consume the fleet of the Falcon Empire?"
"Do you know how the first lady of the Strand Sea State answered?" Marcos paused, and said helplessly, "She said, this is our Gang Fei war with the Falcon Empire. Spring has arrived, and the Istanbul people may go south at any time. If we continue to entangle with the Falcon Empire in the south, the end result will be divided and encroached by the two empires of the Northern Falcon and Istan, and in a sense , This is our war with the Falcon Empire, and the Strand Navy is willing to take action! If we can severely damage the Falcon Empire’s naval forces, we will only be able to deploy the southern forces to participate in the war with all our strength and get a more stable South. Ports, to make up for the supplies we lost in the north, so we have the strength to expand the army and regain the lost north!"
" That woman is really venomous! "Combat Officer Sterling’s tone is full of anger." No matter how high-sounding the reason, everyone knows that the Strands want to take advantage of this war to cut off the Falcon Empire’s navy. The penetration of the inland sea, and thus continue to maintain its dominance in the inland sea area, is like a charitable act to help us! It is a shame that a small island United Kingdom dared to raise its minions to us. Ah!
"You are right, this is a national shame! If there is a chance, we must "repay" the Strant people for their kindness!" Marcos raised his fist and slammed it on the wooden table of the sand table. , The voice revealed a sharp chill like a sword, and he said in a condensed voice, "But now, we can only blame Forbearance. We will consume the power of the Falcon Empire fleet, and then the Strand Sea State will complete the fatal blow. The people who made this plan are quite vicious. In order to allow the Strath Fleet to attack, the two countries have even secretly signed an agreement. His Majesty the Emperor will marry the Anji County Lord of the Strand Sea State after the war! It really kills two birds with one stone. It’s a good strategy. We and the Falcon Empire will suffer both losses. It is undoubtedly the best result for the Strands, so that they can take the opportunity to cut off the Falcon Empire’s navy’s aspirations to the inland seas, or use the southern ports as a threat. Control us powerfully. But we have no choice. What we can do now is to do our best to win, and then we have the opportunity to settle accounts with the Strands!"
" The Strands are really shameless. We fill it with a troop like this. The loss will be great! "The combat officer Sterling looks dim and his voice trembles" and the scene is only on the third day. In other words, we still need more soldiers to act as decoys to hold the Falcon Empire fleet for three days."
" Yes, three days, based on the calculation of five thousand people a day. That is, fifteen thousand emperors will die in Valenya." Marcos nodded, with a cold tone in his tone. "Now We can gather only 200,000 troops in the south, and one-tenth of our troops will be sent to death at once, just to consume the enemy’s fleet strength. Making such a decision requires more than courage and decisiveness. It’s even more necessary, because regardless of the final victory or defeat in this southern battle, the cost of the tens of thousands of shrouds always needs someone to bear it, just like Andia who desperately blocked the Istanbul army in the north, although loyal Unswervingly fighting to the death. Returning to the south with the few remaining troops, they were still besieged and blocked by the Istanbul along the way. To be fair, such people are the heroes of the empire!
Istani army attacked in two directions, and Andya continued to fight with weak forces until Kyoto fell, and was finally encircled by the Istani army before defeating, but as the minister of imperial affairs, I was able to make a decision. It can only be due to ineffective combat and misjudgment of the situation, which led to the fall of Kyoto and the shaking of the empire. Andya was deprived of the position of deputy chief of the military department by the emperor. The title was swept from the duke to the baron. Now it is said that every day is staying in a small mansion. He was banned, but everyone can tell that His Majesty still admires him very much, although he knows that the defeat in the Battle of the North has nothing to do with Andyia,
But two of the four major armies of the empire were annihilated directly in the northern operations. More than 100,000 soldiers were killed, and less than 30,000 people were left. As the commander, Andyah could not shirk the blame! But as the few remaining commanders in Congo with more than 100,000 troops, I have submitted a recommendation to your Majesty. "The tens of thousands of troops mobilized by the empire to the southern coast always require an experienced and combative army. The tenacious commander came to bear the responsibility. The northern faction was almost withered, and the southern faction was inexperienced. Andyah happened to be born in the southern army and had experience in fighting in the north. This is a candidate that can be accepted by both the North and South factions."
" Your lord, did Antya be the commander-in-chief of the southern coast? "The combat officer Sterling's face was slightly surprised,
As far as he knows, before Marcos became the Minister of Imperial Affairs because of the 1.12 Incident, his relationship with Andia was simply incompatible with fire and water.
Marcos was an iron rod who strongly supported the capitulationism of the former Minister of Military Affairs Rubin Sack, and the first thing Duke Andia took over as Minister of Military Affairs was to reverse the imperial policy and not only completely abolished Rubin. The strategies of the Thacker era, and the leader of the young and strong faction in the army, the second is to demand severe punishment for those who used to follow Rubin Thacker, and Marcos bears the brunt of it.
"The country is in such a critical situation, what factions are there! As long as the big fish of the Falcon Empire fleet can be lifted, it doesn't matter if Andia's position is restored!" Marcos waved his hand, his nose trembled, he clearly knew this What was the combat officer thinking, he said in a deep voice, "The navy of the Falcon Empire is sharp. Your Excellency knows very well that the army has not moved and the warships go first. This has always been the tactics of the Falcon Empire. It is the sharpest sword of the Falcon Empire. It is the spear that the enemy pierced our back. If the southern coast falls into the hands of the Falcon Empire, the entire southern part will be flanked by back and forth
"So we can't afford to lose this battle!"
Marcos rubbed his temples. "There is no general sitting on the southern coast. It is completely dependent on the Strands. After all, it is difficult to be at ease. Andia may not deal with me politically, but the situation is different. Now I and his office There is only one thing I think about, and that is to let the country of Gangfei continue to exist, instead of being swallowed by the Falcon Empire like the northern Gaul, if we continue to fight like this, Gaul will be our end. !"
Operation Officer Sterling nodded in agreement, this is an unfair war between the army and the navy
This side deliberately abandoned most of the ports on the south coast in order to set up an ambush in Valenia and consume the Thor bombs of the Falcon Empire fleet with army power. This is definitely a plan that normal people would not make, but In terms of feasibility, even I think it is invulnerable,
The only thing that needs attention. Just how to delay the Falcon Empire Navy in Valenya Port for six days, how to constantly replenish troops, how to consume the Falcon Empire fleet's ammunition and medicine, must not arouse the Falcon Empire Navy's suspicion. All you need to do is to deplete the Thor ammunition of the Falcon Empire Navy Fleet. The lurking Strand navy can launch a fatal blow to the Falcon Imperial Navy, just thinking of the fierceness of the Falcon Navy Thor. Combat officer Sterling’s face was like a layer of ice, his face would not look good,
After the war that defeated the Empire to the end, the humiliated Congolese and African soldiers were also studying the tactics of the Falcon Empire. It is concluded that part of the sturdiness of the Falcon Empire Army is its powerful range and overwhelming crossbow arrows, and the other part is the terrifying, lethal Thunder God Cannon known as the God of Destruction. Especially the Thor of the Falcon Army has a great psychological influence on most of the Congo and Fei troops that have fought with it. Think about it. The sight of Thor bullets madly hitting from the opponent like a torrential rain and hail,
violently exploded piece by piece like a flame covering the ground, destroying the solid ground into a trembling water surface with thousands of ripples.
The violent shock wave drove the dust and smoke to sweep through the sky, and the flames rose up into the sky with dense smoke, covering the sky and obscuring the sun. The strong light flashed back in the billowing smoke, the muffled sound of thousands of thunders, the artillery fire engulfed,
his companion was blown to pieces and flew into the sky. Large pieces of flesh and limbs smashed down and hit in the gravel dust. The blood mixed in the soil, sputtered radioactively on the walls, on the ground and on the sand, and the patches of dark red pulp were shocking.
Without an immersive person, it’s hard to imagine this end-time scene,
, let’s go and see, just the sound of the endless explosion can make the army that initiates the charge collapse. Under such circumstances, the southern army units that have never fought against the Falcon Empire are every day Suffering in hell
The battle of Valenya Port continued until the sixth day. On the left flank of Wasili Island, further north, the waves discharged a white line and slapped on the beach of a small island near the floating rock wall. A total of 220 Strand fleets lurking in the shadow of the cliff like ghosts. The waves hit the sides of these warships, forming patches of white blisters, making a grunting flipping sound, silent. The wind gives people a solemn atmosphere. In the center of the fleet, sixty huge hulls wrapped in metal with skin pain undulate with the waves. The tall roulette wheel, a hundred-meter-long hull, is on the ship. The relatively small inland sea area is simply the existence of Big Macs,
"Commander, it's the sixth day! Do we need to wait any longer?"
On the bow of one of the huge metal ships, a young adjutant approached the Sea State Fleet Commander Fulengia standing in front." According to the information returned, the Falcon fleet is still in Valenya, it seems Until the follow-up supplies arrive, the Falcon fleet will not be in Valenya Port! Once the Falcon fleet receives supplies, our plan will be wiped out."
"Du Stellenkai, a navy slayer, really is not a simple character!" Fulengia is tall and thin, wearing a carefully designed military uniform, a black flat hat, and a representative of Sri Lanka. The four blue star emblems of Trant Navy Commander, black collar, black short boots, eagle-eyed and fierce gaze,
"Order the fleet to anchor!"
Fulengia turned around from the front, his eyes swept across countless forest-like sails with a strong spirit and pride. It was only three-quarters of the naval power of the sea country, which could be regarded as a hectare. The power of the country, such a fleet, can definitely be regarded as a powerful fleet that can travel sideways in the inland sea area.
But this time the opponent is a more powerful Falcon Empire fleet. It is an honor for a navy person to fight against an enemy as powerful as a sea country during his lifetime.
According to the internal information of the sea country, the Falcon Empire fleet is about 120 ships this time, and the number of Thor has as many as 2,000. For several years, the Falcon Navy has dominated the open sea and possessed Thor, the weapon of naval combat, with a range of up to 500 meters , It is said that this fleet once fired a salvo of the capital of the Gangfei Empire. The sea is boiling, and the number of Gangfei is tens of thousands. It is really eye-catching. Every time I think of this, Fulengya feels excited, what is it? The navy, this is the navy, with a fleet that can be strong enough to make a land power tremble. This is the veritable power that a sea country should have~IndoMTL.com~ If the sea country can capture these Thors, even if it's only a tenth First, it is enough to improve the power of the sea country. At that time, the sea country is the real sea kingdom"...
"The fleet is anchored!"
There was a loud command sound, countless white sails rose from the mast of Rulin, the huge wheel began to rotate, and the sea was suddenly boiled.
"Naval battles are fought with courage, courage, confrontation of strength, wisdom and strategy! Navy slayer, hope not to let me down!"
Fulengia stood at the bow of the ship, looking at the morning mist-shrouded sea,
The battleship is like a cloud, the huge sails are swollen by the downwind, and the heavy bow of the battleship begins to slide on the calm sea for more than ten days,
The **** creak of a warship like a pack of wolves breaking through the sea is definitely the most beautiful war song in the world,
It takes one day from Port Vasili to Port Valenya, but if it is a tailwind and the special roulette of the Shanghai State Warship, the speed can be increased to the extreme,
This huge time difference is enough to cause the opponent to make a mistake in judgment,
When the sunset is twilight, the Sea State Fleet will rush like a wolf to the Falcon Empire Navy that has worn away most of its aura and ammunition in Valenya!
