In front of the four princesses, the elder Prince Visu Keda received the report from the deserted coast. He stood up suddenly after just one glance. Then, in the suspicious eyes of the girls, he slapped the report heavily.
On the desk, a voice shouted: "Cohen wins!"
In normal times, the steady and steady Prime Minister would occasionally bang the table, but there would never be such excitement in his voice.
The report was immediately passed to the hands of Princess Feline Rona, and the other three princesses also gathered beside the soft couch, their bodies slightly bent, leaning on each other, and enjoying the emperor's husband's impromptu poem together.
After reading, Feilin stroked her chest to calm her excitement, then raised her head and said to Wei Su: "Father, if my husband wins, do we need to make some adjustments to our arrangements in other places? Taking advantage of this victory,
The momentum determines the overall situation?"
"That's for sure! Not only must we take advantage of the situation, we must also vigorously exaggerate it!" Prince Weisu kept circling around the desk in order to calm down as quickly as possible: "But we have to wait a moment. The emperor's poem
The poem just mentioned the news of victory. We don’t know the details yet, and we are probably still making statistics. We will revise the plan after a detailed and accurate report. The adjustment plan involves various systems, and we need to ask everyone from the staff department and the military department.
Let’s come over and discuss it together.”
"It is estimated that the second report will be sent soon." Feilin nodded and said to the maid behind her: "Go and prepare ten supper."
While these ten supper dishes were still being made by the royal chef, the general staff officer, who was holding detailed battle reports, had already arrived together with several other generals and Dean Lorenzo. Although everyone could still remain calm in words, they were still
The anxious gazes of the staff officers and generals over the past few days were replaced by a layer of splendor. Even the unsmiling dean had a somewhat erratic pace when walking.
A large table was set up in the room where the First Princess worked, and ten people sat down around it. The General Staff Officer first obtained the approval of the First Princess and the Prime Minister with his eyes, and then he carefully held up the battle report with both hands, fingernails
Pick it up and peel off the wax seal.
"Now, please allow me, General, to convey to you the latest battle report of our Sbia Expeditionary Force." Slowly opening the report in his hand, the General Staff Officer once again looked around at everyone around him: "After several days of preparations,
, this morning, under the personal command of His Majesty the Emperor, the 1st and 2nd Legions of the Expeditionary Force, together with the 3rd Dragoon Legion, started a decisive battle with the main force of the Demon Alliance at the third landing site on the deserted coast!"
"The day before, His Majesty the Emperor ordered the Guards who were chasing behind the Demon Alliance to launch an attack first, divide their forces at night, and surprise their logistics and strategic points." Lieutenant General Carlos's voice had never been so excited before: "It's night
, the dragoons arrived at the predetermined position, and with the help of the floating dock that was first transported by the three dragoon regiments, they successfully landed all the dragoons from afar in one night. His Majesty the Emperor then used the thick fog and sand wall as cover, and in the magic
The coalition forces gained time to deploy on the eve of their general offensive!"
"At the beginning of the battle, the dragoons were thrown into the battlefield. Taking advantage of the opening of the Demon Alliance's front line, the attack line composed of the Dream Legion first carried out a counterattack. In the first attack, it defeated the enemy's first offensive group... and then
, the Split Shadow Legion formed a diamond-shaped assault formation to continue the attack, and detached part of its troops to crush the enemy's heavy cavalry deployed on the flanks... After that, the Dawn Legion attacked to make up for the front line and clear it up..."
"Before the powerful attack of our dragoons, the enemy's various units collapsed one after another, causing the collapse of all fronts. Our expeditionary cavalry joined the battle in time, filling the gaps in the battlefield, and fundamentally eliminated the idea of a counterattack by the demon alliance!
The demon alliance was finally defeated... Except for some enemy troops who retreated in an organized manner in advance, most of the enemy troops left the battlefield in a disorderly rout."
"As of this evening, our expeditionary force has completely controlled a hundred-mile radius near the landing site on the deserted coast, and is continuing to pursue it! At the same time, the Guards are firmly guarding various strategic points, making it impossible for the enemy to retreat along the original route.
Let the pursuit troops achieve greater results!" After reading this sentence, the general staff officer felt relieved and raised his head to look at everyone.
"It sounds like a few simple sentences, but it is so dangerous that those of us at the rear can hardly imagine it..." The Prime Minister shook his head lightly: "If I remember correctly, our dragoons originally only had one legion, right?
"
"Yes, we have only one legion of official dragoons, totaling more than 1,400. The other two legions are actually not regular legions, but just training troops for the dragoons. Due to lack of strength, they have to complete the attack.
It was sudden and continuous, so these two legions were also brought up, bringing the total number of dragoons to more than 3,900."
The General Staff Officer nodded and answered the questions of the Prime Minister and everyone present.
"In order to transport this huge army, the Navy did its best. The first dragoon regiment actually arrived on the dock. Moreover, these combined floating docks are of early specifications, and some are even experimental specifications, so some things happened on the way.
conditions, especially because of the heavy damage caused by the collision."
"But there were reports before." Feilin asked: "These two troops are not suitable for the battlefield?"
"Yes, because of this, this part of the dragoons suffered considerable losses." The general staff officer replied: "In less than two hours of fighting, more than 1,700 dragon cavalry were injured. And half of them
, is a fracture of the hind limbs caused by excessive weight-bearing and high-intensity impact... Even if they are cured, these dragon-like animals will not be able to run in the future."
"So how many dragoons are left that are capable of fighting?" Princess Wensley was most worried about Cohen's safety: "Can the emperor rely on these dragoons to come back?"
"Among the nearly 4,000 dragon-like dragons in total, excluding the more than 400 sacrificed ones, there are still 1,600 that can fight, which is a full dragon cavalry legion. Under the current situation, it is more than enough to protect the existing results.
.But the expeditionary force cannot provide the logistics for the dragon knights, so only a small number will be left behind. The other dragon knights will return to the advance base along the original route. Fortunately, the voyage is not far."
"So, what are the casualties of our expeditionary force and the Guards?"
"The expeditionary force suffered a lot of casualties throughout the war." When asked about this, Lieutenant General Carlos paused for a moment: "The two legions of the expeditionary force totaled more than 70,000 people, plus the emergency troops from the Guards.
In addition, there are nearly 80,000 people... Excluding minor injuries, the number of killed soldiers is 21,000, and the number of seriously injured and disabled soldiers is more than 17,000. As for the Guards, the number of killed soldiers is 24,000, and the number of seriously injured and disabled soldiers is 24,000.
Eleven thousand people. The total number of the two armies was six generals above brigadier general, 26 colonel officers, 47 lieutenant colonels, 116 major officers, and 1,670 lieutenant-level officers.
, non-commissioned officers are not included.”
"This casualty..." The muscles on Dean Lorenzo's face kept twitching violently with the long number. Finally, he put the cup in his hand on the table: "Unprecedented! It's unprecedented!"
The faces of everyone in the room were very heavy and solemn. Although everyone had been mentally prepared, when such a casualty figure exceeded that of any previous war, everyone was still extremely sad. Although they were core officials of the empire, they were still extremely sad.
They are different from those successors of the empire who have no regard for life. Every soldier and general who sacrifices is a colleague who follows them to regain and strengthen the empire, and is not just an empty number on the battle report...
"The losses of the demon alliance can be divided into two stages." Another general quickly opened the document in his hand and reported another series of casualty figures to everyone: "After counting, we have obtained detailed and practical data.
"
"During the entire war, the Demon Alliance used all its available troops. Although the first troops put into the battlefield were only claimed to be 450,000, the actual number of troops was far more. And His Majesty the Emperor led the expeditionary force to land in Tulan, and even more
The Demon Alliance was forced to resort to violence." As he spoke, the general distributed a report to everyone: "During the first phase of the expeditionary force before arriving at Chase City, a total of more than 60,000 regular Demon Alliance troops were wiped out. Local armed and
There are countless garrison troops.”
"After the Chase City incident, in the second phase of the operation, the expeditionary force wiped out a total of 110,000 regular demonic coalition forces, 70,000 vassal troops, and completely annihilated seven legion-level organizations. And in the battles and pursuits from yesterday to today
, 120,000 demon coalition forces have been wiped out. As the pursuit and siege operations continue, the results will continue to increase in the next three days. Preliminary estimates indicate that the total number of people annihilated by our army is between 200,000 and 25
Ten thousand. These troops are the last elite of the demon alliance."
"Now it has been confirmed that our army killed thirty-three enemy generals above major general and above in front of the formation, and captured seventeen generals below general, nobles, and captain-level officers. It is too late to make statistics for the time being, and nearly 100,000 of them were captured by our army alone.
Thousands." At this point, the general finally let out a breath of bad breath: "The 150,000 enemy troops who escaped and our army had no time to pursue them will suffer a high proportion of non-combat casualties without logistics and command.
.In addition, there is still a part of the demon alliance force to contain the Guards on the front line from Camp to Wells, and the Guards are already requesting an attack order."
"Our entire military operation has consumed almost all the members of the Demon Alliance. In addition, the previous expeditionary force's logistics and people's livelihood attacks on the hinterland of the Demon Alliance, as well as the Demon Alliance's own reckless war overdraft behavior, it can be said that the Demon Alliance's
The coalition forces have been completely defeated by our Sibian Empire!" Finally, the general made a summary report: "At least for ten years, they will not be able to rebuild their basic organization; within thirty years, they will only have the ability to passively defend!"
After hearing this, the expressions of everyone here softened a little. It should be said that except for a few military generals, no one expected this result to be so huge, nor did they expect that the impact of this result would be so far-reaching.
The war left the Demon Alliance unable to recover for thirty years. What an outstanding achievement this achievement is!
"During the war from yesterday to today, some enemy troops were prepared and organized to escape in advance." After everyone considered the impact of this result, Lieutenant General Carlos began to speak again: "This part of the enemy troops
Their number is about 110,000, with complete troops and generals. Because their retreat is blocked by our Guards, they can only retreat to the mountains on the edge of the plain. It is estimated that they will accept more than 50,000 remaining soldiers. This is
From now on, the entire family of the Demon Alliance - His Majesty the Emperor's order is to ignore it and let them continue to exist."
"I don't want other forces to take advantage of the chaos to attack the Demon Alliance, so I made this arrangement." The Prime Minister nodded: "It seems that the emperor has a thorough understanding of the situation."
"Basically, this is the situation in the demon war zone." Lieutenant General Carlos closed the report in his hand and took another report: "This is a report on other aspects of the war."
"Actually, the focus of today is here. Please give us more details." The Prime Minister's expression returned to his usual calmness: "Don't worry, we will not interfere in the coordination and command of the entire war. We will not interfere in internal affairs."
"Yes." Lieutenant General Carlos nodded with understanding: "Then let me talk about Riva first."
"The battle in Riva is proceeding completely according to Lieutenant General Moya's battle plan, and it is going very smoothly. As of tonight, the 2nd Royal Guards of Riva has surrounded and annihilated the rebel alliance outside Kinshasa, killing them in front of the battle line.
There are nearly 90,000 rebels and more than 120,000 prisoners... This achievement is inseparable from the efforts of Lieutenant General Moya." The general staff said: "In three days, the troops led by General Winterhal Reni will begin
There will be no suspense in the battle to recapture Kinshasa, because Lieutenant General Moya has completed control of all of Kinshasa, including the Royal Palace."
"So far, the Liva rebel alliance has completely collapsed. The leaders of the four forces have been captured by three parties. Only a few stragglers are left and have fled. Our troops stationed in Liva can also directly threaten the rear of the Divine Alliance." Speaking of this, the general staff officer saw that
Looking at the princesses: "The only regret is that Princess Berni's brother was torn apart by a rebel car before."
"Princess Berni, everyone should send more letters to comfort her. Apart from her father, she is a relatively emotional relative." The Prime Minister first whispered to the concubines, and then asked the General Staff Officer: "How many of the prisoners have been captured?"
Leader Fang, has the emperor given any advice on how to deal with it? How will the emperor arrange for the leader who escaped?"
"His Majesty the Emperor's order is that both master and slave must be beheaded on the spot after the recapture of Kinshasa. General Winterhal Reni will judge and execute it to prevent the princess from being temporarily soft-hearted." The general staff replied: "Yes.
The rebels and their leaders on the side who escaped will not tolerate His Majesty's orders and must be resolutely destroyed! At the same time, the empires will also declare that whoever wants to take them in will become my old enemy!"
"That's good, that's good. It can advance and retreat in a moderate manner without losing the demeanor of a strong country." The Prime Minister pondered for a moment: "Now, please tell me about the battle against the Divine Alliance."
"Our combat mission against the divine coalition led by Karl Ulysses is still quite arduous. This coalition commander is very skilled in the use of troops, so we have never been able to find his weakness. We can only follow His Majesty the Emperor's original instructions
Make arrangements to deal with it." The general staff officer glanced at another general, who immediately stood up and spread a war zone map on the table.
"The current Divine Alliance Army has about 200,000 people. Although it is not large in number, it is a direct force cultivated by Karl Ulysses. In terms of equipment, combat effectiveness and loyalty, it far exceeds that of
What’s more worrying about the past coalition forces is that these troops have undergone rigorous urban warfare training. Moreover, Ulysses has equipped them with new tactics, not greedy for bigness, but only for stability.”
"Based on the analysis of the staff department." The Prime Minister asked with a slight frown: "What is his combat intention?"
"We analyze that Ulysses's combat intention is to firmly occupy the northern part of our country, thereby destroying our entire imperial defense system, gaining leverage for his post-war negotiations, and forcing us to make concessions." Lieutenant General Carlos.
Stand up: "There are two reasons for this. One is to maintain the military threat to our empire and gain an advantage in subsequent battles; the other is to use this victory to suppress the other empires of the Divine Alliance and let the Tansi country
Dominate."
"Today, the overall situation is pressing. I'm afraid this old bastard Ulysses will not let go easily." Dean Lorenzo asked with a gloomy face: "So far, what is the status of the Divine Alliance? What is our response?
how?"
"Currently, the Divine Alliance Army has advanced 220 miles out of Silver Frost Castle, with individual units more than 300 miles away. The battlefield area remains at about 300 miles..." The general staff officer pointed his finger on the map: "Emperor
His Majesty's previous plan was to allow them to advance another two hundred miles and keep their logistics line between four hundred and five hundred miles, reaching the supply limit."
"After that, can our army launch a general attack?" the Royal Dean asked.
"This is true in terms of big steps, but there are very complicated links." The general staff replied: "His Majesty the Emperor's ultimate intention is not to allow them to retreat. For the future development of the empire, this part of the enemy must be completely eliminated.
Elimination and simple defeat do not make much sense. In order to achieve such a goal, it must be divided into two fronts and integrate multiple combat modes. Therefore, compared with other battlefields, this battle is a comprehensive test of the imperial war system."
"How are the arrangements for command and troop allocation made?"
"First of all, His Majesty the Emperor and the General Staff will draw up a general battle plan. I will be responsible for the internal command of the theater. Major General Glens and Major General Scindia will be responsible for the external commander of the theater. The Guards and other arms will be commanded by Siv.
Prince Ta Keda serves as the commander, Prince Leke Keda serves as the chief inspector of the theater, and Major General Leighton is responsible for the overall logistics dispatch." Lieutenant General Carlos explained: "The reason why there are multiple commanders is because this battle is a long process.
, there are many troops participating in the battle, and the system is complex. The entire battle involves defense and offense at points, lines, and surfaces, and it requires full support from many aspects."
A general distributed the battle plan to everyone. The Prime Minister took one and looked at it carefully, then looked up at the General Staff Officer: "These are what we need to do, right?"
"Yes." The general staff officer nodded and said, "According to the emperor's order, the last general will go to the front line tomorrow to serve as an inside command."
"Okay, I wish you victory!" The Prime Minister stood up and said, "In addition, the elimination of the remaining enemies in the Holy City has been completed, and we have to arrange to return to the Holy City in batches. So, see you in the Holy City!"
"Goodbye in the Holy City!" Lieutenant General Carlos stood at attention and performed an exemplary military salute. (To be continued)
