Chapter 700: Chapter 700: The Third Corps
At dawn, Aslan entered the city under the escort of the knight guards, and Shani also went to the square of Dylan City under the leadership of Lancelot to prepare for today's speech.
Shani now has to give a speech wherever he goes, and each time it is a huge success, making it easy for Aslan to take over the city.
After half of the Snow Fox Legion was wiped out last night, the other nobles reacted. After learning that Duke Durandal had surrendered, except for a few loyalists who surrendered with Duke Durandal, they sent troops to attack the Lord's Mansion.
It's a pity that in the face of the unified army that has already entered the city and the city defense army that has lost its morale, except for the noble private army that barely has the will to resist, the other city defense forces are almost collapsed at the touch of a finger.
These nobles who finally resisted were slaughtered by Alfonso who entered the city. He was a slave who hated the nobles most in the world.
The nobles who were slaughtered also brought huge wealth, which made all the soldiers of the United Army smile.
Although the wealth of the nobles must be registered and turned over, everyone can get one-tenth of the collected wealth.
Of course, if anyone dares to reach out and enter a civilian family, they will all be executed.
During the speech in the square today, four United Army soldiers who went crazy and snatched ordinary people's homes were about to be executed.
Completely executed by public trial.
In the lord's mansion, Duke Durandal looked secretly at the unified army that had already taken control of the entire main city.
The burning, killing and looting that often happened in the past did not appear.
The main city is in order.
"Your Excellency, the Marquis Aslan is here."
The butler's voice rang in his ears.
"Please come in, the Marquis." Duke Durandal said, straightening his collar at the same time.
In the reception room, Duke Durandal leaned on a cane and stood upright, waiting for Aslan's arrival.
"I haven't seen you with Marquis Aslan for a year, and you have become more stable and mature."
As soon as Aslan entered, Duke Durandal immediately gave Aslan a warm hug.
"It's only a month and a year. I'm relieved to see the old duke in such good health." Aslan said.
After the two were courteous, Duke Durandal asked directly: "I don't know where I will settle down in the future?"
Aslan took out a map of Merlot, pointed to an open space between Merlot City and Changfeng City, and said, "I've already found out for the Duke. When the time comes, we will build a manor here for the old Duke. The former manor will go to Merlot City." It takes less than an hour to go to Changfeng City, and Changfeng City is about the same. When you have nothing to do, you can also go to Alliance City to experience the exotic customs."
The corner of Duke Durandal's mouth twitched. He was sick, so he went to the dirty and messy place of the alien race.
Obviously, Duke Durandal's attitude towards alien races is still the same as that of the old nobles before.
It never occurred to him that today's Alien Area has been developed into a key tourist attraction by Aslan.
"The Marquis of Laoslan is here." Duke Durandal said helplessly.
Anyway, it's not far from Merlo City, and he bought a house in Merlo City a long time ago. He can go to Union City for vacation, and naturally he can also go to Merlo City for vacation.
While Aslan and Duke Durandal were discussing other surrender nobles, the Kyoto Council was already in chaos.
The Duke of Durandal surrendered, Yashian Province fell, and the 50,000 elite of the Snow Fox Legion were buried in Dylan City.
Without Yashian Province as a barrier, the unified army can go straight to Cleveland Province and even approach the city.
"That old bastard, Duke Durandal."
"It's been said for a long time that the old guy Durandal can't be trusted."
For a while, the entire conference room continued to curse.
After Patrick and Uzmi looked at each other, they nodded in unison.
"Silence! Now is not the time for us to continue to quarrel. Our army has just not left the province of Cleveland, and it is just right to meet the United Army on the border. The United Army is rushing continuously and quickly. Our army is waiting for work. It is not without the power to fight. "
"That's right, for this expedition, I will lead the Iron Wall Legion as the vanguard, and the Snow Fox Legion will be in the rear. I will be able to keep the unified army at the border. As long as I persist for three more days, the reinforcements from the Magic City will definitely arrive." Uzmi shouted.
With these two military leaders speaking, the meeting room calmed down a little.
"That's right, if you don't want to fight, you can only flee. Are you willing to give up the territory you have operated for many years?" Duke Rumsfeld shouted.
"You put it simply, the north is in danger, so what about our south? The United Army has already occupied most of the province of Buyik." Duke Azrael said unwillingly.
"The current territory of Melox Province is indeed very large, and it is only a little smaller than the Federation Kingdom, but its population is not even one tenth of ours. They have as many troops as they can, and some of them will stay in the area. The southern provinces After all, the offensive will not be too big, the main force must be in the north, as long as Kyoto is conquered in one go, the Commonwealth of Cleveland will definitely fall apart." Patrick calmly analyzed.
In the meeting room, there were constant quarrels for a while, but in the end the northern nobles had the upper hand, and the capital was above everything else.
The 500,000 troops that had originally reinforced the southern provinces were also transferred back, and the garrisons in various places also quickly assembled a million troops. In addition to the temporary assembly of the private army of the nobles who were training, there were also millions of troops. Nearly 3 million troops finished Cleveland province. At the border, they confronted the Third Corps of the United Army that had just arrived at the border.
Looking at the marching tents of the Cleveland Federation Kingdom all over the mountains and plains, Concas said with a livid face: "If you have summoned more troops, the Cleveland Federation Kingdom is already dying. No wonder there is a famine, let alone a reduction in production. How many fields along the way are deserted. Are those nobles pretending to be full of shit?"
Concas did not have any fear, but camped calmly, built the positions into a ring, and specially established three lines of defense. Their third corps did not choose the easy-to-carry Merlot A-type 75mm electromagnetic infantry gun. Luo D-type 150mm howitzer, the ammunition used by this howitzer is not the double-base gunpowder that can only be imported from Kanglai World, but the single-base gunpowder produced in mainland China.
Because the initial velocity of the single-base gunpowder flame enters the double-base gunpowder, although it has a caliber of 150mm, the maximum range is only 15 kilometers, but this heavy artillery is completely self-sufficient, and it is the main artillery of the heavy artillery unit of the United Army today.
The Artillery Wing of the Third Corps is equipped with 20 Merlot D-type 150mm howitzers, and each wing is more or less equipped with four to six 100mm caliber guns. As for the 80mm mortars, it is even equipped to the squad level. .
The artillery equipped by their corps is basically self-produced artillery, so when shelling, there is no need to cherish the shells at all. As long as the logistics troops can keep up, they dare to blast to death.
