1723 Gallic Elegy (10)
The fierce battle in the city of Se, the sound of killing shook the sky,
In the direction of the city wall, the most cruel city walls of the battle, the long spear of the Falcon Army violently hit the defense line, layer after layer of corpses piled into small hills, blood flowed through the gaps in the city road to form a river, and even when stepped on it, you could feel the stickyness of human blood. The injured person was crushed in the pile of corpses and screamed for help, no one had time to pay attention to it.
Everyone was running for life, and the Falcon soldiers climbed onto the city wall like black ants, surging like a tide, and imposingly, a corpse that fell to the ground.
The Falcon Army was surfing the city wall, and the black armor was completely stained with blood, like a wall of steel, like monsters that were infected with blood and flesh, making people feel trembling and afraid from the heart to the soul. It was so terrifying that ordinary Gallic soldiers felt that their spirit was about to collapse.
"Oh my god, the other party is all monsters!"
Under the fierce attack of 20,000 Northwest Legion of the Falcon Empire, the 8,000 Gaul defenders showed a collapse after only more than an hour. Under the crisis of situation, George Wood, the commander of the 16th Gaul garrison of Nase City, personally led the guards to the top of the city. The number of guards was about 500.
It consists of the elite combat power General Guard and the Kyoto Imperial Guard. Its equipment and ordinary soldiers are completely different levels. It is not the light leather armor of ordinary soldiers, but the plate-shaped heavy armor with a whole body like a steel fortress. It looks like an iron can from head to toe, and its weapons are also Gallic heavy swords forged by fire steel.
"When you go back, the retreater is a deserter, and the fate of the deserter is to be executed! According to the imperial military discipline, your family will also receive the implicated "George Wood leads the guard to block the retreat of the defeated army, and wants to drive away the collapsed troops and continue to go up the city wall to block the Falcon Army's attack
But as soon as he finished speaking, the defeated army remembered the voice, "Don't listen to them, you will die when you go back! There are more people than them, and they dare not take action!" The defeated army has been broken, and George Wood is the commander of the garrison. When they saw that George Wood had only a few hundred people, they immediately shouted fiercely.
"Yes, they only have a few hundred people, and we have more people than them! Don't be afraid of them"
The defeated army group was in a stir, and there was a vague trend of mutiny. The garrison leader George Wood's face became more and more serious. Damn it! He knew that if he hesitated, the defeat would become an irreversible disaster. If he defended the seductive decisively, the Eastern Front would be completely lost.
"Supervisor team!"
He ordered the guard behind him with a ferocious expression. The Lu Empire itself is also a northern overlord known for its barbarity and killing. His military discipline maintains the unique strictness of the northern region.
According to the Gaul military system, if the commander of the front-line combat troops cannot stop the collapse of the troops under his command during fierce battles, the commander who leads the team will be sentenced to death even if he wins. Therefore, the commander's guard often plays the role of the troops in supervising the troops.
Hearing the orders of George Five Devils, the general guards quickly lined up
"brush!"
The cold light of the Gallic sword light was like waves, and it was like a sub-supervisor who used the Gallic heavy sword. These general guards were all real professional soldiers and had little hesitation about executing orders.
In their eyes, there is no difference between one's own people and enemies, only the difference between living people and dead people
They stood in front of George Wood, like an inbreakable steel barrier protecting George Wood. If the main general died, they would be executed collectively. The General Guard was not a regular soldier. They were all the generals' followers of the death warriors, they were the general's private guards, and they only needed to be responsible for their commanders, as for the others, they did not need to be considered.
Their cold eyes were shining with cold air, which made the Gaul army on the opposite side feel frightened and afraid to move forward, but what George Wood needs is not a stalemate. He knew that if these soldiers lose their fighting spirit and fighting spirit, even if they drive them back, they will only have a few more corpses.
"It seems that this must be!" George Wood gritted his teeth secretly
"Listen, if there is a dispersed and retreated, the outcome will be...!" George Wood said loudly as cold as ice, and suddenly stopped. The heavy sword raised up mercilessly at a Gaul soldier on the opposite side who was still shouting to rush over.
The fierce slashing is not like treating one's own soldiers, but rather treating one's own enemies.
"Blood splatters, red eyes burn,
The sharp heavy sword turned into a cold light in front of everyone's eyes and split the soldier's chest. "Why!" The scattered Gallic soldier opened his eyes wide, looking at the Gallic heavy sword that slashed from his shoulder to his chest, and looked like he could not believe that he had been killed by his own people.
"Fraudster, this is the end!" George Wood said in a deep voice. Before the soldier could die completely, the heavy sword in his hand had been pulled out of the soldier's body quickly, and it was cruel and ruthless. The soldier's red blood shot onto his face with the incision drawn by the heavy sword, with blood on his face.
George Wood looked calm, wiped away the blood from his face with his hands, and kicked the body heavily to the ground.
The soldier still couldn't believe the fact that he died in the hands of his general! He stretched his hands and looked at George Wood with his eyes bulging. His pupils quickly lost focus. Everyone could feel that something called life is moving away from this body at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"call"
The sound of sparks burning in the wind was silent all around. All the Gaul defeated soldiers were frightened by this scene. They didn't expect George Wood to really dare to kill them. Thousands of defeated soldiers were suppressed by George Wood's aura.
"Didn't you hear it!"
George Wood turned his head, his tone was sharp and murderous, and his vicious eyes were like a wounded beast, "Sweeping" the Gaul soldiers in front of him took a step back in horror. This madman, everyone had a chill from their hearts.
"Spang"
George Wood swung the heavy sword in his hand, and a line-like blood struck the ground. Then he raised the heavy sword and pointed it at the collapsed city wall. He shouted loudly to all the defeated soldiers in front of him, "See it! The escapee died, this is the military discipline. I know that most of you have never experienced such a fierce battle. The enemy is very fierce, and it can even be said to be much stronger than us."
"But we have no choice. As emperors, we will either be searched for the city like a coward and hanged one by one. Or we will be like an imperial warrior, fighting with our swords until the last moment, allowing our reputation to be passed down forever. This place is not far from Ike City, and reinforcements should arrive! Only when the reinforcements arrive will we all have a way out! Otherwise, if the color is lost, everyone will die!"
The Gallic soldiers looked at each other with pale faces, silently silent, but everyone's faces had changed.
Propaganda about the brutality of the Falcon Empire played a role in winter. A young officer covered in blood stood up first. He looked at George Wood with determination and saluted and said, "Mr. George Wood, I am Exxon, the deputy captain of the Fifth Squadron. My fiancée is Amy Reda of Slan County. I know that the adult is also from Slan County. If you are lucky enough to return to Slan County, please tell her that I died as an Imperial Warrior!"
"I will. If I can go back alive! I will tell your fiancée that you make the enemy tremble in the battle and stick to the last moment!"
George Wood nodded heavily, his eyes flashing. The soldiers of the Empire never lacked blood and the courage to die in battle. Even if 300,000 soldiers had already died in battle, they could still see these precious things, but these things were hidden too deeply. They even wavered themselves.
"Thank you, so I have no regrets"
The young officer smiled. He took a deep breath, turned around and walked towards the city wall behind him, and raised his head. The white raindrops were like long lines that were invisible, and they hit his young face coldly. In the white raindrops, there were clusters of arrows formed by countless cold lights.
The falling rock arrows exploded like a storm. The incendiary bomb dragging black smoke rose like bright stars from the low-lying part of the horizon below, drawing beautiful and cruel arcs representing death in the sky. It crossed the 200 meters ahead and hit the city wall heavily,
"Boom" series of violent explosions and fires like muffled thunder, like red light balls bursting on the surface of the colored city. The city walls were trembling and collapsed. The blown stones fell into the moat, and a large number of white water splashes appeared.
"The flags shook the sky, the neat army rushed to the battlefield, and the earth under their feet rumbled and echoed..." The young officer's face was not afraid, and the loud voice came, "Fight to death, long live the empire!" Hearing the young officer's singing, everyone's faces were excited. This is the military song of the empire. In the past hundred years, countless emperors and men have sang such military songs to the battlefield and expanded the territory of the empire. At the moment when these soldiers turned from ordinary people to soldiers, they also sang this military song countless times. At that time, they just felt that it was a kind of heroic dying with pride. But now they felt that it was a kind of heroic dying.
Behind the young officer, some people began to turn around
"The flags shook the sky, the neat army rushed to the battlefield, and the earth under her feet rumbled and echoed. The warriors were burly and strong. The sharp swords shattered the sky. They were as hard as iron walls. In a depressing atmosphere, more people began to hum the military song of Gaul tacitly."
More and more people began to turn around, and the Gaul soldiers who had disintegrated their morale miraculously gathered again.
"Those who retreat before the battle will kill!"
"Downtown escapees, kill!"
"Long live the empire, kill! kill! kill!"
The scattered troops of Gaul were as if they were forced into a desperate situation and they ran back to the city wall and strangled them with the Northwest Legion that rushed up. This time, all the Gaul soldiers were like chicken blood and fearless. They fell in front of the Falcon Army's gun formation, and the bodies were covered with a red arc, but none of them retreated, which was a completely suicide counterattack.
The bloody and bloody wall made people shocked. The arrow clusters from the city hit like raindrops. "The heavy spears of both sides collided together, making a sound of metal friction tearing the eardrums. The shields of soldiers on both sides collided heavily, pressing one after another.
"Crack"
The metal armor on both sides made a friction sound. The eyes were close to each other, and bright red blood kept coming out of the bodies of soldiers falling down from both sides. The entire city wall turned into a muddy blood.
The fierce battle lasted until three hours, and the sky became blurry. Most of the eight thousand defenders in Gaul suffered losses, and the Northwest Legion suffered more than 3,000 casualties. In order to avoid the possibility of the troops attacking the city wall falling into the city due to darkness, Crolisart could only bear the pain and ordered the troops attacking the city wall to retreat.
The remaining fire was still burning on the city wall, and black smoke filled the sky. The battle report about the color was sent to the base camp of both sides at the same time.
"Miracle, that color has actually been kept!"
In Gaul, Hasen Lambo, who had just received the war report, was so excited that he felt like he was resurrecting himself.
From the opponent's warships attacking the eastern river channel, he already felt that the opponent had the intention of launching a full-scale attack along the river channel, occupying the Seine River upstream of the Eastern Front. Then he entered the inland river channel and pulled out the cities in the middle line one by one. The Seine, located at the Seine River pass, undoubtedly plays a crucial role. If you take down the Seine, the Falcon Empire's fleet can drive straight in and cut off the connection between the cities in the middle line with an irresistible momentum. At that time, even if the central defense zone has as many as 190,000 local guards, they will fall into an unfavorable situation of fighting each other, but the other party can calmly mobilize troops to form an advantage in the local area, and chew away all the groups in the mid-line area like dead biscuits.
Originally, Hasen Rambo had already made plans to give up the sequelae city
Because he knew that if the Falcon Army broke the Eastern Front, its main heavy troops would inevitably quickly approach the city of Nase
Nase City lacks defense. Most of the 8,000 soldiers in the 16th Guard Regiment were garrisons in some areas that had not experienced war. The 70,000 thought they were relying on collapsed early and caught off guard. Such troops. When they encountered the main force of the Falcon Emperor** who had been through a long battle formation, they would not have the strength to fight. They were afraid that they would completely collapse in less than two hours.
By then, before his reinforcements arrived, the color was lost. The main force of the Falcon Emperor** drove straight into the middle line inland river with the warship, threatening the cities on the middle line and cutting off the contacts of all parties. The reinforcements from all sides had to return in shame. Before the battle, the 140,000 troops on the middle line encountered heavy morale setbacks in advance and fell into a situation of fighting on their own. If you think about it, you can feel a chill on your back. The name of the Wikia Falcon God of War is indeed well-deserved. The last Battle of Rusty is so vivid that Hasen Rambo remembers it very vividly.
The Eighth Legion with more than 100,000 troops was divided and surrounded by the enemy, and fell to death in the plains, and was inexplicably gnawed. If it hadn't for the voluntary abandoning the area that was not conducive to defense and using the city's center line to block the Falcon Army's advancement, the Falcon Army would have probably already broken into the empire's hinterland.
And this time, according to Nase’s report, the Falcon Army that attacked the Eastern Front and the troops under Nase’s city had only 30,000 troops. This was the biggest failure of the opponent. Such an excellent fighter opportunity had only invested such a little pitiful force. What would it be if it really occupied Nase?
The central line alone has an imperial guardian force of 140,000, and the base camp still has 80,000 reserve troops to be invested in the central line at any time, with a total of 220,000 troops. The opponent was so stingy that he wanted to invest 30,000 troops and shake the entire line. He really didn't take the soldiers of the Gaul Empire seriously.
If the force invested in the gap in the eastern line exceeds 100,000, or if you can really shake the center line as you guessed, and then break the entire defense line in one fell swoop, unfortunately, only 30,000 people... Sure enough, the gap in the military strength is the biggest weakness of the Falcon Empire. Under the strong pressure of the 400,000 emperors, the Falcon Emperor, with only 200,000 troops, is too limited to the force that can be drawn...
Hasen Rambo smiled coldly, "Come here, immediately order the fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, eleventh, and thirteenth garrisons stationed on the center line to move closer to Nase! I want to use the troops of 7 garrison regiments to encircle and eat this rushing Falcon Army unit." Hasen Rambo excitedly pressed the battle report in his hand on the table, stood up with a bright look, his eyes swept away his previous fatigue and decay, "Is the God of War of the Empire? Or maybe after this battle, I can really become the God of War of the Empire!"
At the Falcon Army Base Camp,
In the dark night, the horse's hooves were like thunder. An imperial cavalry rushed in from the camp gate in dust. Before the horse could stand firm, he jumped down quickly from the battle horse and ran to the brightly lit tent in the center of the camp. In the big tent, the fat man was leisurely flipping the Gallic troops deployment report of the mid-line city of the Rusti area in his hand.
This report is provided by the underground forces of the local Falcon Army. It describes the general forces of the Gauls in the mid-line city of Rusti, as well as the number of troops. It is written in detail. The central local garrison army cluster with a force of 140,000 troops gives people a dazzling feeling even if it is just a number. Almost one of the 24 provinces in Gaul has not been left behind. From the weapon configuration of the garrison regiments in various places, it can be clearly seen which region is rich and which region is poor. By reflecting this report with the report provided by Hu Keqi, you can get more detailed content
The fat man picked up his pen and circled the several garrison regiments reported. The officers of these garrison regiments were all nobles and came from rich areas, so they could focus on taking care of them!
"Your Majesty, Eastern Front Military News!" Hu Kochili walked in from outside the tent with a report and hurriedly walked in with a hurried look on his face
"East Front? Did Crolisart's Northwest Legion take that lust?" The fat man put down the report in his hand, looked up at Hu Keqili, who had just taken the main force of the Central Army from the southwest area a few days ago, and he rushed from the southwest area with the main force of the Central Army.
"No, Lord Crolisart encountered some trouble. That color's defense was very tenacious! The attack was hit again, because it was night, in order to avoid ambushing, Lord Crolisart's Northwest Legion could only temporarily stop attacking." Hu Kochili said nervously. He knew that His Majesty the Falcon wanted to use the battleship to sweep the center line, so he was also very clear about the importance of the battle of the color. Even he himself did not expect that the Northwest Legion would fall into the inconspicuous city of the color!
"Although I'm a little disappointed, it doesn't matter. "The fat man looked calm and could not see any joy and sorrow. He glanced at the report and put it on the table. He said unexpectedly because Hu Kochili said, "It has no effect whether the Northwest Legion can take the color. Since it can't be defeated, let the Northwest Legion retreat according to the original route! Fishing, fishing, I don't want to put down the bait I didn't catch the fish, but was swallowed by the fish!" (To be continued...)
