Fifty-Six Drive Straight In
"Is it really good to fight undeclared like this?" At least 10 infantry regiments, more than 25,000 soldiers are gathering towards the border, and Des, who is still in Seris, looks at Chris, who is also in the castle. asked.
Chris shrugged and replied, "History is written by the victors, dear Des! As long as we can win the war and bring down those who stand in our way, then everything we do will be correct."
Within two hours of deciding to send troops in advance to start the war, the troops stationed in various places of Ailan Hill opened their barracks. From such a small detail, we can see the combat readiness of Ailan Hill's troops. how high the level is.
The war machine, which had poured in countless money and was piled up with countless gold coins, began to turn at this moment, and what was awe-inspiring was that this machine, which had just roared, had already demonstrated its power to everyone. .
"I don't think there is any problem! After all, when we went south to loot, we also sent you a notice." The special envoy of the Prairie Empire standing aside, Toxel, the minister of the Prairie Empire who was in charge of liaising with the trade between the two countries, smiled. said with an open mouth.
Ailan Hill did not act alone this time, but after showing his strength to the Prairie Empire, he tied the Prairie Empire to his chariot. The two countries have long signed a secret treaty and formed an alliance.
The Prairie Empire has always dreamed of revenge, so they were very supportive of Alan Hill's attack plan. They promised to provide troops when they went south to help Alan Hill win the war against the Arland Empire.
Therefore, on the third day after the main force of Ailan Hill began to go south, the troops of the Prairie Empire also began to gather south. They hurried southward under the restraint of their guide, miraculously not disturbing any of the commoners of Alan Hill along the way.
With 50,000 prairie cavalrymen and more than 40,000 Ailan Hill infantrymen, this war was doomed to not be a local conflict from the moment it broke out. In Chris's plan, the war could at least be seen as a preview of the fall of the Arrant Empire.
"First of all, the cavalry troops of the Prairie Empire will disperse immediately after breaking through the border defense line of the Arrant Empire, forcing the opponent's cavalry to gather in the main city." Chris repeated his old trick and took out his own attack on Maine. That strategic plan.
"Then attack these main cities with infantry and artillery. The 4 large cities near the border and the 7 defensive castles will be captured in the first time." He pointed to the map and introduced his attack plan to his allies. .
"The attacked cities are all cities that have been affected by us. The businessmen there are basically relying on our side. There are already many factories in the city, and we have secretly paid for the roads to strengthen them." Des After throwing away the entanglement of undeclared war, he said with a confident smile.
This is the attack plan he came up with. He sold some factory facilities to these cities in advance, and spread eyeliner in these cities, almost turning these border cities of the Arlant Empire into Alan Hill back garden.
In order to allow the southern troops of Ailan Hill to move forward quickly, he even built the roads in these places in advance, and built this place: according to his expectation, as soon as the war started, this place would be destroyed by Ailan Hill. Take it as quickly as possible.
"I think... When we were discussing tactics here, the war on the border had already begun, right?" Chris looked towards the south and murmured softly.
...
Yes, the war has already begun, and at the same moment, on the border of Arrant, the soldiers of Ireland Hill wearing M42 steel helmets, carrying their weapons, crossed the boundary marker symbolizing the border line. Behind him, a soldier next to the other passed by the Arlantean soldier standing beside him, but the funny thing was that the other party didn't have any intention to stop him.
"Thank you!" An Arlantean soldier in armor took a candy from the Alan Hill soldier who passed by him.
Smile and greet each other. The soldiers of the Arlantean Empire, who had long longed for a prosperous life in Alan Hill, quickly stood on the side they had long hoped to stand on.
No wolf smoke rose, no gunfire or gunfire. Everyone was in harmony, as if they were playing a rehearsed play according to the script. The imagined bloody slaughter did not appear at all, and with the gleam of gold coins, surrender became a matter of course.
"Alan Hill! Long live!" An Arlantean Empire officer holding a helmet pressed his long sword, looked at the rows of Alan Hill soldiers walking past him, and shouted something that made people laugh and cry. slogan.
As soldiers on the frontier, they have not been paid for months. The big men above thought that after the war in the south was over, they would move the funds to the north, supplement the army's salaries and boost morale, and then launch an attack on Elland Hill. It is a pity that Alan Hill did not give them this opportunity, and the war broke out when they least wanted it to happen.
On the far side of the road, on the wall of a small castle, dozens of Arlantean soldiers pushed a huge black golden eagle flag of Alan Hill down the crenel.
The rolled up flag was opened to the wind by gravity, and the Alan Hill soldiers who came to receive the castle from the city squinted, facing the sun and saw the huge flag of their country fluttering on the city wall like a huge poster.
Yes, posters - that's a new word, and recently Alan Hill is about to become a holy place for bards and opera troupes, because there are so many plays that are born there, new and interesting. Whenever there is a new play, a huge promotional poster is put up at the entrance of the theater.
"Sir! There are a total of 500 soldiers stationed in the castle, 10 war horses, 100 long swords, 550 long spears... all handed over to you." An Arlantean officer headed by this Alan Hill Behind the non-commissioned officer, he respectfully reported on the defense forces in the castle.
The non-commissioned officer of Ailan Hill withdrew his gaze from the flag on the city wall, smiled politely with the other party, and then turned to look at his subordinates: "Okay, I've seen the excitement, Go in and receive this castle!"
Beside him, the soldiers who were watching the fun also closed their eyes, and a dozen people walked into the castle where hundreds of people were garrisoned - this kind of thing was staged next to the castles in every border, receiving these castles , only one infantry squad is needed.
"Are we here to fight or travel?" Putting down his binoculars, he frowned and looked at the officer beside him. Coria complained a little depressedly, "Surrender again? I shot down 3 castles. Now, the ammo consumption is zero, how do I write a report?"
The officer beside him shrugged his shoulders, and teased his superior with a smirk on his face: "Our side is good, Bourges' side heard that because the advance was too fast, the three soldiers had their feet sprained... I'm curious how he writes the report."
"Pfft...Ahahahaha!" Koria finally couldn't help laughing out loud when she heard the news. Just now, he was worried that his report would not be easy to write, and that little melancholy was swept away.
The 6 main infantry regiments heading south had not yet been launched, and only relying on the 4 garrison infantry regiments on the front line, Ailan Hill easily penetrated the border defense line of the Arrant Empire. Those castles that should have been guarded at the intersection like nails have now become tourist attractions.
In Naru, the prosperous large city closest to the border, on the luxurious main seat in the city hall, a chubby man was teasing with two women in his arms. This plump man is the city lord Adam.
Although his name sounds good, his reputation in Naaru City is not very good. Nicknamed the Greedy, he is a complete cysticercosis. He was the confidant of Prime Minister Clark, and in fact it was precisely because of his ability to collect money that Clark pushed him to the position of Naru City Lord.
At this moment it should have been Adam's work time, but he has long forgotten his serious business, and prefers to tease these two women who have been conquered by his wealth and power. Just as his hands were swimming under the clothes of the two women, an officer rushed into his hall with a tumble and crawling.
"Get out!" Adam frowned as he looked at the subordinate who broke his Yaxing, and scolded in a long voice: "Useless thing! That's what I usually teach you? Have you forgotten even the basic etiquette?"
"Big! Big, my lord! It's not good! It's not good! The army of Ailan Hill is coming!" The officer didn't care that he was reprimanded, and mourned with a cry: "Now, now, now They may be out of town already!"
"What? What are you kidding? There are still 7 castles on the border! We are at least 100 miles away from the border!" Adam subconsciously pulled out his hand from the woman's clothes, staring at his small eyes and snapping .
"I, I don't know either..." The officer of the city guard could not explain why the other party would easily pass over those castles that seemed to be heavily fortified, but he was indeed on the city wall just now, and he saw it appearing on the horizon. of Ireland Hill's army.
Those grenadiers are very easy to identify. They have no armor, only steel helmets, shouting loud horns, and walking in neat steps, a little bit approaching the tall and thick walls of Naru City.
"Quick! Gather the troops! Our city walls are very thick and high! We can hold on!" Although Adam was greedy, he was not a fool. He knew that it was too late to run now, so he would stay here and wait until the reinforcements appeared before he could survive. So he gave orders loudly, trying to do a dying struggle.
