Chapter 840 Unknown Fear
Blitzkrieg!
This is a powerful tactic created by Guderian, the famous general of the Third Reich, in the previous World War II.
The core system of blitzkrieg is to seize air supremacy, storm strategic locations behind the enemy's rear, paralyze its logistics and command system, and use armored forces to storm the weak points of the front. During this period, there will be no stopping for dogfights, but a rapid advance in depth and tearing apart.
The enemy troops were deployed, and finally completed the division, encirclement, and annihilation.
This is a tactic that trades "time" for "space". In addition to the requirements for air supremacy and mobility of the troops, more importantly, the suddenness of the attack. As the saying goes, attacking an unprepared person by surprise can produce powerful combat effectiveness.
.
In modern warfare, blitzkrieg that relies on armored clusters and aerial firepower has long been outdated, and sophisticated information warfare has long replaced the torrent of steel.
However, Kino is not fighting a modern army now. The Doguland Kingdom army he faces is a feudal army. Although there are a large number of extraordinary people among them, their tactical system is still full of cold weapon thinking, and is even far inferior to those during World War II.
French troops engaged in trench warfare.
Blitzkrieg, which is backward in modern times, is definitely an unprecedented advanced tactic in this world. It can even be said to be a dimensionality reduction strike.
As long as the tactics are executed properly, how the German army blitzed Eastern Europe during World War II, the rebel army can now use the same method to defeat the Royal Army.
Kino introduced the tactical ideas of blitzkrieg to everyone. The baton kept stroking on the sand table, and finally clicked on a city with a laurel flag. He said: "Our main goal at this stage is here, the City of Sad Wind."
."
Sadwind City is a city built in a valley. It is located on the border of the Cardinal Province. It is located at an important transportation hub and is connected in all directions. This is the most important frontline base of the Royal Army, and according to scout intelligence, this is also where their headquarters is located.
If the City of Sadwind can be captured, the deployment of the Royal Army will be completely disrupted. The rebel army can also use this as a springboard. They can launch an attack on the Cardinal Province to threaten the Royal City, and when retreating, they can spread their troops to other provinces along the transportation routes.
, drag the enemy into your own war rhythm.
Of course, between Sadwind City and Beacon Fire Province is a defense line composed of one million Doguland troops. If you want to capture the city, you must first break through in depth, and this is exactly the tactical goal that the blitzkrieg needs to achieve.
Based on the characteristics of the Royal Army's front, Chino made arrangements in the command room:
First, the rebel army was divided into five groups.
Among them, Kino will lead Lorna, and Fitch will lead an elite force to launch a fierce attack on the "Blue Wolf Fortress" controlled by the Royal Army from the front, in a stormy breakthrough posture.
With the strength of the Royal Army in Canglang Fortress, it is absolutely unable to withstand such an intensity of attack, and the commander will definitely ask for reinforcements from surrounding troops.
Once the enemy forces begin to carry out rescue operations and their deployment changes from static to static, gaps will appear in the defensive front.
At this time, the remaining four rebel armies launched a breakthrough into the gap, using the mobility and air superiority of the armored forces to advance in depth, continuously dividing the enemy forces, and finally closing them with a pincer-shaped offensive to complete the encirclement of the enemy's main force.
Once the encirclement is formed, the main force of the Royal Army's front line is annihilated, and then the City of Sad Wind is captured, the entire situation will be revitalized, and the initiative will be completely controlled by the rebel army.
After listening to Kino's deployment, everyone was shocked by this unheard-of blitzkrieg surprise attack, and unprecedented confidence was ignited in their hearts.
That night, the sky in Beacon Province was as dark as ink, and the coming lightning would pierce the dense darkness.
...
"Boom, boom -" Blazing thunder suddenly appeared, splitting the black night, and the sky was as bright as day in an instant, and thunder snakes danced wildly in the sky, as if they were mocking human beings who were as small as ants.
Unlike the scorching front line, the weather in the Royal City tonight is not very good. Heavy rain is falling in the sky amid lightning and thunder, strong winds are shaking the windows constantly, and candle lights are flickering in the airflow.
It is early in the morning and dawn is about to break. It is also the darkest time and the easiest time to feel sleepy.
Andrei sat alone on the throne, with the empty hall in front of him. The civil servants had already gone back to the hall to rest. The generals were still suppressing the rebels on the front line. He was the only one here.
Andre stayed up all night, but his face showed no signs of fatigue. His eyes reflected the candlelight, staring directly at the closed entrance of the hall, as if waiting for something.
At this moment, the side door of the side hall was opened, and Lan Xian walked in from the outside. He closed his umbrella and shook off the water droplets on it. He came to Andre and bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you rest?"
Please leave this war to those invincible warriors. Our military strength is far superior to that of the other side. The slave uprisings in various parts of the province have also been suppressed. Those rebels are now just caged animals."
Andre did not look at Lan Xian, but still stared at the palace door, and said lightly: "Do you know what is the most terrifying thing in war?"
Lan Xian thought for a moment and gave his answer: "Dragon Knights? They ignore the land defense line and appear mysteriously. Many battles have been reversed because of the existence of Dragon Knights."
Andre chuckled, shook his head, and said: "Since you already know the characteristics of the Dragon Knight, there is nothing to be afraid of. Whether it is coercion or inducement before the war, or using the Dragon Prison Formation to set up an ambush in advance, there is always a way to deal with it.
them."
"In my opinion, the most terrifying thing in war is the unknown." Andre's eyes became profound. "The rebels led by Kino assemble extraterrestrial weapons on a large scale. We have little information about these weapons.
I don’t even know anything about the tactical system it can bring.”
"Have you never thought about it? Our current situation is very dangerous, because Kino is using a completely unknown tactical system to deal with our armies that have been thoroughly studied for a long time."
"I don't know how the frontline soldiers are feeling now. Are they high? Excited? Want to seize this opportunity to make contributions? I think this is terrible, because if I were them, I would only feel one emotion - fear, fear of the unknown.
fear."
Lan Xian nodded slightly to show humility: "Does your Majesty have any instructions to pass to the front line?"
"I'm waiting." The candle flame reflected in Andre's eyes flickered, "Waiting for someone to come and lift the veil of the unknown for me."
Not long after Andre finished speaking, the palace door that had been closed for a long time finally opened. A royal guard ran in quickly from the outside, knelt down in front of him, and handed over an envelope wrapped in waterproof paper.
Letter: "Your Majesty, flying book from Twilight City!"
"Boom!" The thunder outside the palace door surged like a tide, filling the entire hall and illuminating Andre's face.
He opened Feishu, read the content on it, and slowly leaned on the back of the throne chair, with a faint arc appearing on the corners of his lips...
