Power and Empire Chapter 2490: Thunderstorm (10)
Please enter the text." The scout reported that Fei Zejun had arrived on the opposite bank in the afternoon and was running along the river towards Kanyala. Does the river bank defense need to be strengthened? “Canyara is slightly dilapidated On the head of the city, Salton handed the report from the front scout to Ruthian Wick behind him, and his eyes fell on the defensive line by the bank of the Larry River in front of the rolling waves,
"I'm already very strong. To be honest, if we didn't know that the above only requires us to hold on for ten days, I really suspect that the above is going to trap the 200,000 troops of Fezer here." Shrugged his shoulders, it seemed that he didn't regard the approach of Fazer's 200,000 army as the same thing. It was surprisingly relaxed, but it happened that a famous general like Salton also vaguely agreed with this point, and sighed. With a loud voice, he expressed dissatisfaction with the complacency in his old friend's tone, and Salton said, "This is the kind of rich man who is qualified to say that. If you know that the Empire Flag team is treated so well, I should have recommended it myself!" /
"I knew that when I was selected, I must have something to do with you." The corner of his mouth glanced slightly at the corner of his mouth, and he looked towards the river bank ahead and said, "Imperial Flag Team is not the regular army of the Empire. In this sense, it can only be regarded as the armed forces of the business group. If it were not for the special guarantee from the Ministry of Supervision, I would not have chosen to join in the first place."
"Special guarantee? To be honest, can you tell me?"
Salton hesitated and asked. Although he recommended him, he knows very little about the following matters, only knowing that he joined after he came out of the supervision department. The imperial flag team, which is an irregular army, changed from a general of the regular army to a commander armed with a merchant regiment. This once caused quite a stir among the rude factions within the empire, and the princess still came forward. It didn’t spread out in the end
"In fact, there is nothing that can't be said about this matter. Even the Supervision Department did not deliberately keep it secret at the time. It just said it and no one believed it." Husianvik's eyes flashed with memories. Guanghui took a deep breath and said, "If I say, I met the Emperor at the headquarters of the Ministry of Supervision, do you believe it?"
"The emperor? What did the emperor say?" Salton nodded. Who is Husianvic? At the beginning, even if facing the former king of Germany, he dared to speak out. If you want to impress the heart of such a person, a small supervision department is not enough. On the contrary, it is quite possible that the emperor will appear because of the formation of the imperial flag team. The first one to be put on the battlefield was Paput, and then the empire used the battle of Cannyaro, which was the only one of the empire, which eventually led to the emergence of the Central Eight-Nation Alliance. Such a layout and such a method, it is said that there is no Emperor's Majesty behind. How is it possible,
"The emperor said that as long as I join the Imperial Flag team, he will give us German soldiers a truly unique opportunity." Husianvic held his hand on the cold crenellated brick of Cannyaro, and suddenly a touch of his mouth appeared. With a bitter smile, there is a bitterness in his eyes. The elite infantry who used to cross the mainland have now reached such a situation. As a German soldier, if he can use his reputation to redeem all this, there is no fear of sacrifice!
"It turned out to be like this!"
Salton was stunned, and his body trembled slightly. This guarantee is indeed a condition that any German soldier who wants to restore his moral glory cannot refuse. Yes, the German soldier is full of eager desires. To prove my chance, this time I led 30,000 cavalry to attack 200,000 Fei Zejun. Is it not so emotional in my heart? As the representative of the German military power in the empire, Salton has learned the situation is even more unbearable. As the last faction to surrender on the entire continent, the Rude faction has also experienced the cruel chaos of the traditional martial arts, the elites have been lost, the battle of Rude, the empire is crushed all the way
Therefore, for the conquered Ruud region, the emperor did not intend to conscript at the beginning, but later to calm the emotions of the disbanded soldiers, the emperor tried his best to form the second army of Ruud in the south of the empire. Called in the name of the princess, it was a product of the current situation from the beginning
How can the emperor value such a troop?
As the empire began to conquer Obalo’s war, the empire’s military was re-adjusted. In addition to the original system, even the soldiers of the Salander faction were added. Even the Doroks were integrated into the empire system. Many officers were recruited into the imperial army, and there was a more selective support for the Dorok forces at the top. On the other hand, the princess was noble as a princess, but could not be included in the list of powerful princesses, and the military’s heavy generals were also one. The lonely Salton. Over the past few years, the empire has conquered Gaul, defeated Gangfei, annexed Feshan, attacked Istanbul, how many **** battles, how many military achievements, how many dazzling military rewards, the Second Army of Germany It’s only for watching from the side, or arriving late as a reserve team, basically the battle is over.
There is almost no chance of platooning on the first line of combat. Where is the reward for military exploits? After years of this, even the elites have become ordinary troops. In the annual assessment, even the Imperial Military Affairs Department I once advised the emperor to request the cancellation of the Rude Second Army, which was originally formed in response to the form. It was in the name of the first-line legion, but its combat strength was still the pseudo-main force of the second-line legion.
And this time, the emperor suddenly transferred the Second Army of the Southern Empire into Paput, facing the pressure of the war between Paput and the Fazer Kingdom. Salton originally thought that the emperor’s transfer was only used to confuse the fee. According to Zeren’s illusion, the Second Army still only needs to stay quietly along the coast and wait for the end of the war to clean up the battlefield. Anyway, this kind of preparation team has done too much, and it doesn’t matter if you do it again. However, King Paput was destroyed, and the tragic situation of a country broken into mountains and rivers, dead mountains and blood seas, appeared in front of Salton, but the empire showed no signs of mobilizing a main army.
Hearing what Seanvik said, Salton was shocked in his heart. This time, the Second Army really participated in this tragic war as a blocking force of the empire, that is to say, the main force of the empire. The legion will not enter Paput in a short time, and Salton can already feel the emperor’s scrutiny gaze, looking over from the other side of the sea,
The rude fighters who have dominated the mainland for hundreds of years, either are reminiscent because of this battle, or are reduced to a historical term because of this battle. The second army of the rude must truly become the main battle of the empire. The Corps had to go through such a test of blood and fire. In this regard, the emperor’s ruthlessness is quite famous, even the emperor’s most beloved disciple, the flower of the empire’s military, and Berrant Bonnie’s Gangfei Second Army just Formation has suffered such a general test. It was also after facing the 200,000-plus Chinese and European coalition forces that entered the Gangfei army aggressively, and now it has the position to stand alone in the north of Gangfei.
" Don’t worry, this time I personally begged Miss Socutus Delan, who at any rate can be regarded as the senior commander of the Imperial Bank’s flag team. Miss Socutus Delan is also very concerned about our situation, so I promised to give With some assistance from us, "Roseanvic looked at Salton’s dignified face." The swelling caused by the heavy rain should disappear within ten days. The above should also be the same. There is no flood. Influence, the Fazers are likely to bypass the Kanyaro road, so we only need to guard for ten days."
"Are you sure it's just some assistance?"
Salton rolls his eyes when he hears it, and he can’t wait to kick this guy with his feet, fifty Imperial Ballistas, one hundred and fifty Imperial Heavy Ballistas, and sixteen merchant ships full of various war equipment, among them On the sides of the two merchant ships, there were imperial Thor’s muzzle baffles. Are they still merchant ships?
Seanvik said that it was an armed fleet of the Imperial Bank, so it was equipped with obsolete items from the Imperial Navy. The problem was obsolete items. It was also Thor. Weapons can make obsolete items. Those strong and skilled Thors The artillery is also a knockout? If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Salton would have never expected that the Ruthian Vic, who arrived later, would bring such a powerful force. How could this be used to stop it, it was simply used to kill! After the fleet arrived, instead of driving away, a bearded man wearing a navy admiral's hat came down and asked Salton to mobilize manpower. "My lord, I am Chekov, commander of the Second Squadron of the Imperial Navy. We need A certain manpower will be used to expand the port outside Kanyallo and serve as a docking point for ships"
"The ship’s docking point? Are you saying that the naval fleet is going to enter the inland river? Salton was really taken aback by the naval officer’s words. The Imperial Navy warship entering the inland river is not without precedent, but it is like this. Although the large river is wide during the high water period, once it falls into the water, it is difficult to move large ships. If the battleship can be driven in so easily, what is needed for the army to do so hard? Direct naval battleships to kill along the river.
" The fleet can’t enter such a river. "Bearded Chekov is a real man. He scanned the river after the flood and shook his head, but said with certainty." But the merchant ship can, if it can be built here. Starting from the supporting point, it can be connected to the sea entrance. In this way, the movement of various materials will be greatly increased. I heard that it will take at least ten days to reach here from the northern coast. However, it only takes us to get here. It’s been less than four days!"
" So that’s the case. I understand that "Salton has also been the Minister of Military Affairs of the Germans anyway. He is quite clear about the importance of war transportation. The empire is really a good calculation. Take advantage of the war and drop by the Paput River. Establish a support point. As the battle line goes on, whether it is the trophies ahead or the late-launched materials, they can operate at a speed that doubles, just like the fleet that suddenly arrives in front of you, so many materials and weapons, if it is It’s too late to come by land anyway, but now coming from the waterway, I rushed directly in front of Fei Zejun,
Fei Zejun thinks that what will stand in front of them will be a long-distance raid but lacking in materials. How can they not think that there is enough material here to kill all 200,000 Fei Zejun. Because of the abundance of materials and the coastal pontoons constructed by the fleet, the earth fortifications built one after another are like building a city wall over the extension of the river channel overnight, and the imperial soldiers looked down on the opposite side one hundred meters away. On the river beach, the flood from the upper reaches hits the wide and thick soil barriers, suddenly turning up a large white foam whirlpool, the sound of rumbling faintly resounding like the muffled thunder in the sky, on these soil barriers, an imperial heavy ballista Pushed up, the huge metal arrow cluster flashed with chills in the twilight, turning the only stone bridge still holding on to the river surface into a murderous area
Amidst the rushing sound of the "rumble", there was a faint sound of smoke rising from the riverbank in the distance. On September 24th, the Fifth Army, Sixth Army and Eighth Army of Fei Zejun went south, totaling ten. The Chinese army, composed of 30,000 troops, first appeared densely on the opposite side of the Kanyaluo Stone Bridge.
The army of mixed steps and riding drove continuously out of the forest on the opposite side of the mountain, the rumble of hooves and footsteps lifted up a yellow dusty fog
"My lord, the Imperial Army has taken control of the bridge" A scout ran from the front
"It looks a little tricky!" Ome stopped the horse. Although it was farther away, he could still see the earth fortress on the opposite side, and several ships docked on the opposite bank made his eyebrows tighten. Twisted together, these ships should have come from upstream. This faintly made him feel a little worried. It is not a secret that the imperial army transports the army by water, but I did not expect that I will encounter this situation, but it is just a few transport ships. Thousands of reinforcements can be transported to the sky~ IndoMTL.com~ For more than 100,000 troops on my side, what is the use of this little reinforcement?
"My lord, order an attack"
General Fezer can't bear it anymore. The imperial army on the opposite side has a strength of at most 50,000 or 60,000. The reason why the army is late was to build offensive equipment. With an order, it was three hundred. A simple catapult for temporary work was pushed up, and huge stones with water chestnuts were put into the shooting basket. Each piece was more than a hundred kilograms. The opposite soil barrier was simply the best target, Feize people. There was a hint of red in his eyes, an officer raised his hand, and the spring of the catapult gurgled when it was compressed, waiting for the order to throw the catapult.
Just as everyone was nervously waiting for orders, a cold shadow suddenly erupted on the opposite bank of the river in front, and I saw more than a hundred high-speed objects like white lines crossing the 100-meter river, towards Fei Zejun’s sling The location flew, and at the same time, Fei Zeren felt that the sky above his head suddenly darkened. When he raised his head and saw, he was almost scared and pissed. It was countless black dots flying in the air.
"Arrow attack" A Fazer soldier's horrified shouts were not dropped, and a white line pierced his body, and he heard the sound of bone cracking. The soldier's corpse was like fluttering straw. Driven by the huge impact, it flew and slammed into the wooden frame of the sling behind the soldier, rumbling, the front end of the metal crossbow made a turn under the collision, and the smashed sawdust flew horizontally, already waiting tightly. The launched catapult collapsed suddenly after the impact.
