It was the afternoon of October 4th when Prince Wedelek escaped from Amys City. It was already evening when Major Gibson figured out the truth of the matter. Claude led the security squadron to the entrance of the mountain pass in the Odin Mountains overnight.
A division dispatched by the Nasseri Kingdom Army arrived at Amis City in the middle of the night. Because the scouts found that the city was well-defended, with bright bonfires and artillery arrays. Secondly, because the troops were tired from traveling long distances, the commander decided
Rest one night and wait to see the situation tomorrow before deciding whether to attack the city.
If it weren't for the capture of several soldiers of the Chaniyalar Corps in the morning, and their confessions said that Amys City only had one division of its own army, then the Nasseri Kingdom might not have sent a division to Amys City. The main reason was that
In the soldier's confession, he heard that there was also a battalion of the Blue Feather Legion and a battalion of the Guards Corps stationed in the city. This made the interrogator feel a little strange. After asking more carefully, he learned that Sterling X's
The second son, Prince Wedelek, lives in the city of Amys and serves as a warden.
It is not uncommon for supervisory troops to be three to four hundred miles away from the front line, but this news caused a dispute between the commanders of the two standing legions of the Kingdom of Nasseri. Some officers thought that they should change their plans and turn to Amis City to first remove this
If the second prince seizes it, perhaps this will become a prerequisite for forcing the Kingdom of Ovilas to cease the war and sue for peace.
But the other commanders were firmly opposed. They demanded that they ignore this episode and go all out to complete the predetermined strategic plan to surround the three legions of the Principality of Ovelas on the front line. For the anti-Austrian Five-Nation Alliance, encirclement and annihilation
An ace field regiment in the Kingdom of Overas is much more important than capturing a prince alive.
There are three main reasons for the opponents. One is that the two standing legions turned to attack Amys City. Let alone whether they can capture Amys City, it is inevitable to alarm the Blue Feather Legion on the front line. When the Blue Feather Legion turns around and attacks in the opposite direction,
If the city of Ames is not captured, then the two legions will face the danger of being attacked from both front and rear. Not to mention encircling and annihilating the Blue Feather Legion, they will be in good luck if they are not encircled and annihilated.
The second reason is that they did not completely annihilate the battalion of the Chania Lal Legion that came out to collect taxes in the morning. Several officers on horseback ran away. They must have gone back to report the news. The two legions of the Nasseri Kingdom outflanked the camp.
News about the three legions including Lan Yu on the front line has been leaked. We must rush to the planned deployment location as soon as possible to intercept the retreat of the Blue Feather legion instead of turning to attack Ames City. Because Ames City will definitely improve its defense and defense after receiving the news.
Defense, that Prince Wedelek might have run away long ago...
The third reason is that even if we catch Prince Widrick, it will be of no use, because there is a precedent for this. Decades ago, Sterling IX attacked the Kingdom of Nasseri, and his eldest son led an army to attack the Principality of Berkeley.
.But in a battle, his eldest son was brave and fearless. He charged too hard and was injured and captured. When the Duke of Berkeley saw the eldest son of Sterling IX, he thought he had a rare commodity, so he opened his mouth and proposed
There are many harsh conditions for the armistice.
At that time, many ministers of the Kingdom of Overas persuaded Sterling IX to endure the humiliation and rescue the eldest prince first. However, Sterling IX killed the envoy from the Duke of Berkeley, tore up the armistice agreement, and took the
The troops turned to attack the Duke of Berkeley, directly destroying the Duke of Berkeley. Because of the murder of the eldest prince, they killed all the Duke's family. Even most of the nobles of the Duke of Berkeley were killed, and few survived.
Therefore, Sterling X, as the second prince, can successfully take over the throne, otherwise the throne will not be his. Opponents brought up this past incident to show that it is no big deal to capture a prince of the Kingdom of Orvelas.
If you don't use it, it will attract all the offensive spearheads of the Overas Kingdom to your side. And the captured prince must be well fed and entertained, so as not to kill him and endanger all the nobles in his kingdom.
To be honest, it would be better not to catch them. If you catch them, you are asking for trouble. This is a hot gourd...
Perhaps the opponents' reasons were so strong that the officers who proposed to attack Amis City had nothing to refute. In the end, the supreme commander of the Nasseri Kingdom's army decided to implement the original plan and first attack the Blue Feather Army and
The other two second-line legions of the Kingdom of Overas were surrounded and annihilated. However, in order to prevent the garrison of Ames City from sending troops to meet the three legions on the front line, the commander of the Naseri Kingdom army decided to allocate a division of troops.
, to contain the defenders of Amys City.
The commander of this division was repeatedly emphasized by the supreme commander when receiving the order. His mission is to contain the enemy and prevent the garrison of Ames City from leaving the city. If it is found that the garrison of Ames City is too strong, then he can
Decide independently whether to retreat.
It's just that the closer we get to Ames City, the more soldiers of the Chania Lal Corps who came out to collect taxes were captured. In the end, the division commander finally got the exact information. There were only three battalions of garrison troops stationed in Ames City.
The division commander was also one of those officers who advocated turning to attack Amys City. He was immediately moved. The strength of his own division was enough to capture Amys City.
So the division commander urged his men to hurry up and finally arrived at Amis City before three o'clock in the night. He found that Amis City was so heavily guarded that the division commander wondered if the captured soldiers were lying. In addition, his men were really tired from traveling.
Panic-stricken, the division commander finally decided to rest for the night and test it out during the day tomorrow to see how strong the defense force of Amys City was...
Sometimes, inadvertently, the fighter plane just disappears. If the division commander of the Nasseri Kingdom launches an attack as soon as he arrives at Amis City, then no matter how tired his soldiers are on the road and how heavy the casualties are, they can still capture Amis City.
.That would be a disaster for all the armies of the Kingdom of Ovelas in the Principality of Sidings.
Because for those soldiers of the Chania Lal Corps who went out to collect taxes, if they happened to encounter the army of the Kingdom of Nasseri launching an attack when they returned to the city, then they would definitely not enter the city, but would throw away what they had collected.
The property fled directly to the entrance of the mountain pass in the Odin Mountains, hoping to return home from there.
As a result, the Nasseri Kingdom's division did not launch an attack, but camped to the north of Amis City to rest. This was good news for the soldiers of the Chania Lal Corps who were rushing back outside the city.
Bypassing the north gate and returning to the city through the east and south gates, they accepted the reorganization by the officers sent by the 11th Field Battalion. So in just one night, Ames City had an extra regiment of troops.
At about ten o'clock in the morning on October 5th, the army of the Nasseri Kingdom finally launched an attack on the city of Amis. However, because this division was traveling lightly and the artillery they carried were lightweight, they could not compete with the defenses deployed on the city head.
The artillery competed with each other, causing the soldiers to be violently bombarded by the city's artillery during the attack. At the same time, when they entered the musket range of the defenders, they were fired upon by a volley of guns led by the 11th Field Battalion.
After an hour's attack, the Nasseri Kingdom's army not only failed to get close to the city wall, but suffered four to five hundred casualties. This result was beyond the expectations of the attacking Nasseri Kingdom's army division commander, so much so that he believed that the defense strength of Amys City was not enough.
As the few captured soldiers testified, he suspected that the garrison strength in the city was about three regiments, and it was impossible to capture Amys City with the strength of his own division.
So the division commander withdrew his troops back to the camp and no longer launched an attack. Instead, he strengthened the camp and set up defensive lines, preparing to carry out the containment mission to the end. The defenders of Ames City were relieved when they saw that the enemy was no longer attacking. Just now they were
All the defensive forces were mobilized to repulse the enemy's attack...The attack and defense of Amys City ended in an anticlimactic manner.
At noon on October 5th, two seaport cities in the Principality of Sidings newly occupied by the Kingdom of Ovelas were attacked almost simultaneously by the anti-Austrian Five-Nation Alliance fleet. Chaniala was blinded by the fleet's artillery fire.
The two garrison divisions of our army were simply unable to withstand the attack of the two armies that were transported by the combined fleet to land. In less than two hours, they escaped from the seaport city without their armor. The only ones who were able to reach the city of Amis were finally
There were less than two regiments. The remaining ones were lucky enough to be captured, but those who were unlucky were directly killed by the people of the Principality of Sidings who came out to capture them...
At about six o'clock in the evening on October 5th, four signal soldiers ordered by Major Gibson, the commander of the 11th Field Battalion in Ames City, finally broke through the enemy's blockade and sent the information to Philip, the commander of the Blue Feather Army.
In the hands of General Special, there were more than thirty signal soldiers, and only the four of them completed the mission.
General Philippet, who was dissatisfied with the progress of the day's battle, was wondering why the enemy's resistance had suddenly increased and strengthened today. After receiving the intelligence, he immediately understood that the three armies on his side were in crisis. As
The commander of the Blue Feather Army, one of the four major field ace armies in the Kingdom of Overas, General Philipt was a very good soldier. He immediately ordered the troops to retreat overnight and left a unit to attack the enemy at night.
The momentum of the defensive front is used to confuse the enemy on the front.
Although General Philipt's prompt decision bought the three armies a night to retreat, the enemy still discovered the fact that the Blue Feather Army and the other two second-line armies were retreating the next morning. More than 200,000 enemies immediately pressed forward.
came up, and the two standing armies of the Nasseri Kingdom behind had already outflanked them. The legions occupying the two seaport cities in the west also left one regiment each as a guard force, and attacked from the side.
For General Philippe, one night only allowed the three legions to return to the starting point of the attack, the low hilly area of the Amelia Plain. Although there are some defensive settings and positions originally arranged here,
It is not a good thing to be besieged here by an enemy with superior strength. Even if the Blue Feather Army is confident and capable of holding on here, time is obviously on the enemy's side. Once the siege lasts for a long time, the logistics will not be able to be supplied.
The only way out for the three legions is to surrender.
If the Blue Feather Corps surrenders to the enemy, it will be an unbearable lifelong shame for all the officers and soldiers of the Blue Feather Corps, and it also means that General Philipt will leave a very disgraceful mark in his military career. Even if
Even if he could return to his country in the future, he would not be able to see his descendants. So after a short military meeting, General Philippe and all the senior officers made a decision to take advantage of the enemy's just-established encirclement and unstable foothold to break out of the encirclement immediately.
The blood and lives of the soldiers fought to create a retreat to the city of Amys.
After eleven days of bloody battles to break out of the siege, the three legions were almost out of ammunition and food in the end. They broke through while resisting the enemy's advance and siege from the other two sides. But they finally broke through the siege. This was a road paved with the corpses of countless soldiers.
After exiting the retreat, less than 40,000 people finally arrived in Ames City, most of them wounded soldiers. More than half of the officers of the Blue Feather Army and the other two second-line armies died on the battlefield. Even General Philippe took the lead in order to boost morale.
He was hit by a stray bullet on the front line and seriously injured...
While the main force of the Blue Feather Legion and the other two second-line legions were working hard to break through the siege for their own survival, Claude was feeding mosquitoes at the entrance of the mountain pass in the Odin Mountains. After he arrived here with the security squadron, he asked the motorcycles to
Lieutenant Lieutenant Sturt took the squadron of the Chanyalal Corps up the mountain to take over the two defensive lines. He led the soldiers of the garrison to dig trenches on the hillside at the entrance of the mountain road, and then dug trenches from the defensive positions on the mountain.
Four artillery pieces were placed openly on the hillside.
After the brief offensive and defensive battle of Amis City started, only a few scout cavalry from the Nasseri Kingdom came to the entrance of the mountain pass. They immediately turned around after discovering the four cannons placed on the hillside.
I left and never came back again.
So the bored Claude counted the stars at night and stayed on the position to take a nap during the day. The enemy did not see him, but he captured nearly a hundred deserters from the Chaniyalar Army who wanted to run back home, and handed them over to Second Lieutenant Most for punishment.
and rectification. It was not until more than ten days later that the news came that the Blue Feather Legion successfully broke through the siege and arrived at Ames City...
