Chapter VII(1/2)
It is impossible to verify what kind of uproar the General Staff Officer's words caused in the Liaison Department, because all the abnormalities that occurred there that day were not recorded. And in the distant southern war zone, "the dude who peeked at the big girl taking a bath" did not immediately become a
Rumors spread for a while because the secret order was torn into pieces by the person involved, Major General Roman, in front of everyone, chewed up piece by piece and swallowed it.
Then, the major general asked like a normal person: "What's going on with the nearby Nanshang regiment?"
"In terms of changes, the steps of transporting logistics supplies have been accelerated. But I have calculated that their increased number cannot keep up with the needs of the Huayu Gorge battle." The intelligence officer replied, "In Regenburg and Huayu Gorge, the Merchant Corps Army is
The battle losses in Japan are considerable. If they want to maintain the offensive, all their magic teleportation arrays will be used to transport soldiers... Will logistics materials fall from the sky?"
"It's possible in the sky, but they don't have the ability." Roman actually considered this possibility, "Map."
"The departure point for supplies is here, here and here." Of course the intelligence officer knew what Roman needed, and immediately pointed out some transfer hubs on the map, "The one passing through us is here, and then we will follow this line to the front line. But to
So far, this is their first regular transportation, and the forward group of the Merchant Corps consumes the first supplies accompanying the army."
"Have you already calculated it?" Roman raised his eyes.
"We have counted it three times." the intelligence officer replied. "They are shipping according to actual consumption, but the quantity that will pass through us has not changed."
"It's a trap set for us." Roman straightened up with a happy face, "But this is what I've been waiting for!"
"Is our entire legion waiting for this?" the combat staff officer squeezed over from the table next to him, "Sir, how do you say this?"
"Think about it, now that the fake one has appeared, is it really far behind? This is a fighter opportunity, but it is also a crisis. The young boy from the Merchant Corps is an intelligence professional, and he is capable of plotting against people secretly."
A sneer appeared on Roman's face, "I bet this is a series of tricks. We will discover the real logistics transportation line next, and then, when we attack the real logistics line, this blatant decoy force will appear before us.
Give us a fatal blow from behind."
"Why don't we just kill the decoy troops." Regarding the commander's inference, the combat staff thought more realistically, "Aren't they afraid that we will turn around and attack the real logistics line after we kill the decoy troops?"
"It's said in the textbook that the troops used as surprise troops are not large in number, cannot fight for a long time, and have limited supplies. Son of a bitch, the book is right! The number of bait troops and their marching method must be such that we can't eat them all in one bite.
"." Roman looked at his old partner who had been deep in thought, "Then, the stupid troops will be fooled, and they will be so surprised that they turn around and attack the real logistics line, and everything will end."
"It makes sense." Under Roman's expectant gaze, the staff officer raised his head and said, "I think we can arrange it according to this idea."
"Send out all the reconnaissance forces. The two hundred-mile flank range of the decoy troops is the focus. We need to pull up the net for reconnaissance! I think about it, a place suitable for gathering our troops and suitable for the enemy troops to rush to rescue..." Roman walked back and forth around the dining table, and suddenly realized,
"River! The key is here. Only shipping rivers can meet the transportation volume! Check the rivers near the bait. The merchant army must have formed a shipping fleet!"
"Yes, sir!" The reconnaissance officer in charge was excited and quickly ran out to make arrangements.
Roman looked at the other officers and glared: "What are you doing standing still? Why don't you get ready!"
The restaurant was suddenly filled with people, and the officers who had been waiting for a long time finally knew that a fight was about to begin, so they ran out like a swarm of swarms.
After the noise outside the window gradually subsided, the staff officer took a sip from the water glass and said slowly: "If the merchant army wants to complete this trap, it must have a reserve force. Why didn't you tell them?"
"What are you talking about like that? Can it change anything?" Roman sat across from his old partner, "Do you remember what a certain commander taught us? In this war, nothing is insurmountable. Even the wishes of the alliance's subordinate countries
The army has said that 'Sibiya lacks a spirit now', shouldn't our army, which has not yet appeared, be more decisive?"
"How are they?" The staff officer was silent for a moment, "That volunteer force."
"We previously contained a group of merchants and achieved some success, but the news we just received shows that they have been surrounded." Roman said, "It will probably be difficult to break out because they have to face Gironde.
"
"Farmer Gironde?" The staff officer's eyes flashed. For troops like theirs, there is no more terrifying opponent than this. Moreover, Gironde was the one who once forced Cohen Keda to a dead end.
"If we are lucky and can get out of this chain, the final opponent will probably be him!"
"It should be him. The decoy troops, the real decoy troops, the hidden soldiers, and finally Gironde...it's strange that I don't have any feeling of end. Have I become inhumane?"
"That doesn't matter, which one do you want to shoot first?"
"No one will be refused. Of course, we'll start with the fake bait. Anyone who comes out to be a bait will naturally have the consciousness to be swallowed up." Roman turned his head and looked into the distance with misty eyes, "I really want to have fun again.
…”
"Instead of daydreaming about peeking at celebrities taking baths, aren't there more meaningful things?" The staff officer pointed to the bulge on Roman's chest, "Don't waste others' trust."
"Yes, officer on duty!" Roman held down the package that never left his body, "When will the team from the front line arrive?"
"Sir, it's tonight, what are your orders?"
"I want to see them, you can arrange it, it's just a matter of a few words." Roman put down his hand and straightened his face, "I'm hungry, let's start dinner!"
Before the guests arrived, the independent army headquarters was about to hit the road, because the "real decoy force" had been found. It was really a shipping fleet, and the number of escorts was more than 20,000. The staff officer showed his extraordinary performance and looked at the map with a sullen face.
As mentioned above, an hour later, the Merchant Corps' ambush also showed clues - two reconnaissance teams that went to the area did not come back, which is already very clear about the problem.
In the middle of the night, the real decoy will arrive at the most suitable ambush position. By that time, the fake decoy will be ready for all battles. The war situation is extremely urgent and there is no time to waste. Major General Roman can only lead the team with full of regrets.
, the size of the fake decoy force is three legions, and the independent legion must use all its strength to eat it, and then face the other two enemy armies with a half-broken body.
It seemed that something was moved in the dark. Of course, it was more due to the conscientiousness of the star officer on duty that day. He actually brought the team from the front line to the temporary headquarters - at that time, Roman and the staff officer had already issued the order.
After receiving the final combat order, each unit also entered an ambush position, and the enemy's outpost cavalry was only one mile away from the hilltop where Roman was located.
When the leader of the guests walked to the temporary headquarters, the fearless Major General Roman's face changed drastically. He pulled down his helmet visor in a panic. As soon as the subordinates' surprised expressions appeared, they saw that the calm staff officer also had the same look.
Follow their example. Their behavior scared the guards so much that they almost arrested the guests on the spot!
The guest is a beautiful and dignified lady. To be precise, she is the widow of the governor of a certain city on the front line. Her husband has just died in a defensive battle, and her father, who is far away in the city, is critically ill. The general staff officer issued a special order to send the guest to the city.
The daughter-in-law of the imperial patriarch was taken back. But Major General Roman did not know that she was Fulan Xisuo, one of the aristocratic ladies who had a good personal relationship with His Majesty.
"Your Excellency, Commander, I am here at your request." Fulan Xisuo's petite body is covered with iron armor, with a few strands of long hair floating in the wind, and there is no trace of sadness or weakness on her calm face.
His face is white and pure.
"Dear Madam, I take the liberty of interrupting your schedule." The officers noticed that someone's voice changed shamefully, "If I had known earlier, I would not have made this reckless decision."
"Time is precious, Commander, please tell me your entrustment. I think it must be very important."
"I have something important to ask of you. This is something that Brigadier General Chatai asked Brigadier Slida, and Brigadier General Slida asked me to do." Roman thought about it and carefully took out a red cloth from his arms.
He opened the bag, revealing a piece of dark metal with a white stone inlaid in the middle. Then, he held the cloth bag in front of Mrs. Fulan Xisuo.
"Dear Madam, when you return to the city, please give this to Major General Malu of the Strategic Reconnaissance Bureau of the General Staff Headquarters. Please tell him that Chatai has been taught by him for many years and is determined to reconcile with him and wants to make peace with him.
Brothers of life and death - this forest essence stone is the eternal witness."
"Major General Maru from the Strategic Reconnaissance Bureau of the General Staff Headquarters." Fulan Xisuo took the cloth bag solemnly and held it in front of his chest, "I accept your entrustment."
"I'm extremely grateful! Madam." Roman bent down deeply, and this action made the armor plates "chirp" loudly.
Fulan Xisuo's eyes moved: "You...are Roman?"
"No!" Someone immediately panicked.
"You are, do you think I can't hear your voice? And the person behind is one of the companions who got into trouble with you, right?"
"Madam, we..." Roman struggled to say these words, "We have been punished. But if the anger in Madam's heart has not been eliminated, we are willing to bear more."
"Weren't you already punished in the park?" Fulan Xisuo shook his head, "General Roman, please look at me squarely. You are now a soldier of the empire. You, like my husband, should not show up to me."
No one bows his head except His Majesty."
Roman exhaled a painful breath, stood up, and the staff officer behind him also lifted his helmet.
"One thing you don't know is that the person who insisted on beating you in the park was none other than Your Majesty." Fulan Xisuo looked at the man with a guilty expression and said, "Your Majesty also said that you are good at singing, but the dude only knows how to sing.
Singing and peeping are not allowed, because Sibia's dandy has his own mission and responsibilities, otherwise he is a useless waste."
"That person is actually His Majesty..." Roman murmured to himself.
"Actually, the enemy you are worried about never exists, so please fight for the empire without any scruples! Commander, I take leave." Fulan Xisuo turned around and walked down the mountain.
"Madam, please wait." Roman raised his head and showed his first sincere smile since coming to the southern war zone, "Bring the horse!"
Roman said loudly: "Dandy has no other choice, but please allow me to do my best for my wife in my own way!"
"Bring the horse!" the staff officer shouted, "please allow me to march for my wife!"
The guards thought that the major general was going to see his wife off, so they brought in the horses. Who knew that the major general picked up his sword and mounted the war horse. The horse neighed and turned around, carrying Roman and rushing down the hillside.
The enemy cavalry left the outpost.
In the face of his subordinates who were almost ice-cracked, Major General Roman carried his sword and held his bow. A burst of wild and uninhibited singing rose up and resounded through the night sky: "The great cause of the empire - success in a hundred battles - there will be fewer heroes in the world!"
More than half a mile away, the outpost cavalry of more than two hundred merchant regiments stopped. They were surprised to find, under the moonlight, a horse riding from the hills on the roadside - the knight had silver armor and a bright red helmet.
Ying, and a pure black cloak. The leader of the merchant army showed a contemptuous smile, and led the people to greet them. On the way, all the people threw away their cloaks, and the golden armor was clearly marked with the mark of the Demon Palace.
"Thousands of armies are galloping - winds and clouds are surging - the Holy City will always be in my heart!" In the same heroic singing voice, the staff officer quickly caught up with Roman.
The same silver armor, the same bright red tassels and pure black cloaks, two knights with their bows fully drawn, flashed away with six points of cold light - there was a "rumbling" sound in the team of the Demon Palace Knights, and seven or eight people screamed.
Falling into dust!
"The frontier spans thousands of miles - the sun and the moon share the sky!" Followed by their personal adjutant, singing majestic and majestic, "The morning glow casts a sword! The mountains form a bow!"
In the temporary command post, all the officers who were from the First Front Army rushed out. Not one more, not too few. They were all the guys who were going back to the city to take charge of the crime. They struck the ice with their high-pitched harmonies.
The night sky: "The journey is long - the ruggedness is always the same - across the road, the dandy is the peak!"
The ghostly continuous fire started again, and the light flickered on the field bit by bit. There were only three strings in total. There were at least fifty people missing from the team of the Demon Palace Knights! Looking at the arrogant, arrogant, and arrogant enemy, the leader of the team
The Demon Palace Warrior almost burst his eyes!
"Blood - rushing!" Major General Roman, who was rushing at the front, raised his giant sword and slashed at the oncoming merchant knights! In the splashing rain of blood, his giant sword was raised again, with lightning speed.
