In October of the 589th year of the Holy Light Calendar, the Supreme Commander of the Overseas Directly Administered Territory of the Nubisia Continent of the Kingdom of Ovelas, Honorary Baron Claude Hanfield, Major General of the Kingdom, led part of the Thunder Division, and together with Ai
The two main regiments of the Third Rock Division commanded by General Berendt, with a total strength of more than 20,000 troops, attacked the Vibato Colonial County of the Kingdom of Hicks, and swept across the Kingdom of Hicks, Torfield.
A border defense front guarded by standing corps.
The Thunder Division, which was dominated by light cavalry, first used its powerful attack power to storm an important defensive position defended by the enemy in the next battalion in less than half an hour, opening a channel to the rear of the border defense front.
.Immediately afterwards, with its flexible mobility, the three main regiments of the Torfield Standing Army, which came separately for reinforcements, adopted strategies of ambush, night attack, division and encirclement, and surrounded and annihilated the three main regiments of the enemy.
Then Claude commanded the troops to capture the enemy's three logistics supply strongholds and the legion command center, cut off the supply of grain and grass materials to all enemy strongholds on the border defense front, and forced the 20 main battalions of the Torfield Standing Corps on the border defense front.
Surrendered. With 20,000 troops, he took the initiative to attack the enemy's border defense front defended by a standing army of more than 60,000 troops. He completely annihilated the Torfield Standing Army with less than 3,000 casualties and captured more than 50,000 people. This battle report
Stunned the entire colony of the Kingdom of Hicks, Claude became famous.
The Zokoa Standing Corps of the Hicks Kingdom, which was guarding the port of Vibato, originally planned to send a division of troops to reinforce it. However, after learning the news that the Tofid Standing Corps was completely annihilated, they urgently reduced their forces and strictly guarded Vibato.
Hong Kong was unable to retreat, allowing the light cavalry of the Thunder Division to gallop outside the city, provoking and cursing...
On November 20th, Claude led two light cavalry regiments to the city of Vibato Port.
"It's a pity that we don't have many grenades left, otherwise we could still try to attack the port city of Vibato." General Albert put down his cherished gold-plated monocular telescope and looked at it from a distance.
Looking at the Hicks Kingdom soldiers on the city wall who looked like they were facing a formidable enemy, they said with regret.
Claude shook his head: "Throwing bombs are not omnipotent. In fact, we can't capture the Vibato Port even if we have a thousand throwing bombs. Don't forget that the Kingdom of Hicks also has a branch of the Sea King fleet.
The fleet stays in the harbor, and the large-caliber long-range naval guns can completely blockade half of the port city. But we do not carry heavy field artillery, which poses no threat to these warships. If we cannot expel these warships, we will not be able to capture the entire Vibato
port."
"I know I think too much, but now that we have arrived at the port city of Vibato, it is always disappointing to be unable to attack. If we can capture the port city of Vibato, then this colonial war will be over.
It's over. Maybe we can return to the kingdom with honor and enjoy peace, instead of staying here to continue this long war..." General Albert sighed.
"The end of this war is not whether we can capture the port city of Vibato, but whether the leaders and rulers of the Hicks Kingdom have the confidence to continue this colonial war. In my opinion
, it would be better not to capture the Vibato Port. We have annihilated three enemy legions this time, so the Kingdom of Hicks must transport a few more legions. When they come, we will come over to harvest a wave.
Not only did we have military exploits, but we also had prisoners and captures, just like killing pigs, fattening them and then killing them..."
"Hahaha..." Claude's condescending words aroused laughter from the officers of the surrounding divisions. The group of people pointed and pointed arrogantly from a thousand meters away from the city wall until...it was just Vibato Port.
The enemy guards on the city wall opened their eyes like blind men, pretending not to see it, and few soldiers opened the city gate in anger and excited to fight, leaving Claude and others to observe the defense of the city wall.
"Okay, let's go back. It seems that the enemy is determined to defend the port city of Vibato and not fight. We can't lure the enemy out. This time we came too late. There are more than ten enemies outside the city.
Ten thousand acres of fields have already harvested their second batch of potatoes, but we can come here before harvest next time, set fire to their fields and harvests, and let them continue to have food shortages." Claude looked at the endless horizon outside Vibato Port.
The farmland said.
"General, if you do this, then the Hicks Kingdom will only stay in the port city of Vibato if they send troops over. If they don't disperse, how can we slaughter them like fat pigs in the future?" A member of the Panshi Third Division
asked the regimental lieutenant colonel.
Claude laughed: "If the Kingdom of Hicks ships a few more legions, even if they stay at Vibato Port, it will add a lot of burden to their ocean transportation capabilities. Without these farmlands outside the city,
Food replenishment, the responsibility for food replenishment rests entirely on their Sea King Fleet and Combined Fleet. As long as this continues for a few years, the two fleets will inevitably collapse.
Therefore, the military leaders of the Kingdom of Hicks will definitely not let the subsequent legions stay in Vibato Port and sit there in vain. They will force these troops to go out. As long as these subsequent troops leave Vibato Port, they will become here.
If they are blind and unfamiliar with the place, our light cavalry can completely block their battlefield reconnaissance vision. At that time, these later legions will become fish under our knife and fork, and we can cut off any piece we want...
..Hahaha......"
In the evening, Claude finished approving the official documents in the big tent and was about to wash up and go to bed. He would break camp and set off tomorrow morning. This time he led the Thunder Division to attack. Although there were some heavy casualties, he had annihilated three enemy legions in one fell swoop.
It was a great victory. After returning to the Amphiston Territory, we had to replenish our troops, reorganize and train them, and also deal with the reorganization of the 3rd Rock Division commanded by General Albert into the 2nd Thunder Division.
We need to negotiate and finally submit it to the Kingdom's Ministry of War for approval. There are a lot of things to do and it is very troublesome.
At this time, Major Anders, his personal adjutant, came in and reported that the elders and leaders of the rescued Nikancha people requested Claude to receive him.
What kind of tricks are these Nikancha people doing? They haven't escaped yet, and they are still gathering in the place where they were forced to cultivate fields not far from the camp. It seems that this nation is really low-class, and they are used to being slaves.
They don't know what to do if they are given freedom, and they deserve to be oppressed and tortured by the Kingdom of Hicks.
After Claude led the Thunder Division to attack the colonial county of Port Vibato in the Kingdom of Hicks, he first broke through the border defense line, annihilated and forced the landing of the enemy Torfield Standing Army. Then he marched straight in, and the troops reached the wall of Port Vibato
Under this situation, the Zokoa Standing Corps of the Kingdom of Hicks, who was defending Vibato Port, was so frightened that they could not retreat and defended tightly. So the light cavalry of the Thunder Division galloped through the Colonial County of Vibato Port, breaking down every farm.
Forest farms, as well as military garrison areas set up by the Hicks Kingdom, rescued hundreds of thousands of Nikancha people who were treated as slaves and oppressed.
Of course, Claude did not come specifically to rescue these Nikancha people. This was just a matter of convenience. Moreover, after completing the task of capturing those military camps, the officers and soldiers of the Thunder Division only packed up guns, ammunition and valuables.
He left all the potatoes and other coarse grains to the Nikancha people, and at the same time warned them to flee far away and not to be caught by the Hicks Kingdom army again and become their slaves again.
For Claude and the officers and soldiers of the Thunder Division, everything they have done has been extremely kind to the Nikancha people. Although they look down on the Nikancha people, they are not as prejudiced against them as the Hicks Kingdom.
They were captured and treated as slaves. So they basically turned a blind eye to the Nikancha people and ignored what they were doing together, even though more and more Nikancha people were gathering in a farm not far from the main camp.
, the soldiers of the Thunder Division still ignored them.
Claude was a little puzzled. What did these Nikancha elders and leaders want to do when they came so late? I didn’t want to see them at first, but then I thought about it and thought it would be better to meet them and ask them what they wanted to do. Anyway, their life and death are not just
own business.
As the squadron leader of Claude's security squadron, the big man Germi very responsibly led two guards to bring in the four Nikanchas. He first searched them, and then stood behind Claude after confirming that there was nothing wrong.
Adjutant Anders and two guards stood at the door of the tent, waiting for Claude's instructions.
Among the four Nikanchas who came in, there were three old and one young. The first of the three old Nikanchas had gray hair and beard, and he was probably over sixty years old. The second one was younger, about four years old.
He is in his fifties, has a mustache, and looks very strong. This is relatively rare among the hungry and thin Nikancha people. He probably has a high status among the Nikancha people, so he can still eat.
The last one was very thin, but the expression on his face was very peaceful, which made Claude involuntarily think of the old priests in charge of the temples.
Following these three old Nikanchas was a person who was completely covered in a black linen burqa and had her face covered. Judging from her figure, she must be a woman. No wonder the big man Gemmi searched her body.
He let out an angry groan.
The four Nikancha people bowed to Claude, and Claude waved his hand to let them sit down, and asked Adjutant Anders to serve them wine. This is the most basic hospitality courtesy. For the Nikancha people
They said that wine is better than tea, and they like drinking wine rather than tea. But what surprised Claude was that the old Nikancha man who looked like a charlatan asked for tea, and even the man next to him who was completely covered in black asked for tea.
The woman in the linen burqa also asked for tea.
"What do you want to see me for so late?" Claude got straight to the point.
"Dear Sir, we would like to ask if you are leaving tomorrow?" The old Nikancha man with a gray beard stood up and asked respectfully.
Claude nodded. There was nothing to hide. The entire battalion of officers and soldiers were packing their luggage today. The Nikancha people next to the military camp could easily come to a conclusion.
"Yes, we will break camp and set off tomorrow. What is your name?" Claude asked.
"Dear Sir, my name is Mali. I used to be the elder of the Makek settlement, but now there is no Makek settlement. The despicable Hicks destroyed our home." The old man from Nikancha bowed and replied.
"Okay, Elder Mali, I sympathize with the situation of your settlement. But is there any reason why you came here tonight to ask us whether we will break camp and set off tomorrow?"
"Dear Sir, we poor Nikancha people who have lost our homes have a very humble request. When you set off tomorrow, can you take us Nikancha people to your kingdom colony and let us rebuild there?
A small shack as our own home? We are willing to devote our labor to this..." Old man Nikancha knelt down in front of Claude.
Claude laughed dumbly. This is simply impossible. The overseas territories now feel that there are too many Nikancha people. These idle Nikancha people have long become a factor of instability for each overseas territory. Almost all overseas territories.
The governor or the town supervisor wanted to drive the troublesome Nikancha people away to other places, leaving only the honest, hard-working Nikancha people who were willing to work hard.
Before I left for the expedition, I heard from Sir Bennett that two national parliamentarians from overseas territories were working together to prepare to enact a law in the overseas territories. Only Nikancha families who were formally employed would be allowed to stay in the towns.
All idle Nikancha people will be expelled from overseas territories. The National Assembly members who initiated this proposal believe that this law can reduce the number of Nikancha people’s disciplinary and criminal records and bring stability to urban residents.
Life.
Only when he was full and strong would he take these hundreds of thousands of Nikancha people back to the overseas territories. Although their plight of being treated as slaves by the Hicks Kingdom was very sympathetic, but it was none of his business? Could it be that he had rescued them?
Do we still have to be responsible for them to the end...
"This is impossible." Claude flatly refused: "Our Thunder Division rescued you and transformed you from a slave into a free person, but this does not mean that I must be responsible for your future to the end. I have always been
Strange, why did you not take advantage of the opportunity to fly away during this period after we liberated you, but instead gathered people to stay next to our camp. So this is what you had in mind?
It is impossible for me to take you back to the kingdom's colony. On the contrary, I hope that you will pack your bags immediately and hide in the mountains to the north. Because I am very sure that after we leave, Hick will be hiding in Vibato Port.
The army of the Kingdom of Sri Lanka will come out to capture you again. If you are willing to be slaves, you can stay here."
At this time, the younger Nikancha man stood up: "We will not be slaves. In fact, I do not agree with Elder Mali's idea of leaving with you. I came here to ask you, sir, if you can leave us a place."
A few muskets and ammunition, and we will take up arms to resist the Hicks' capture of us..."
Claude looked at him with interest: "Who are you and what is your name?"
The Nikancha man bowed his head: "Sir, my name is Kuka. I am the leader of Kumanli, the most powerful Nikancha settlement on the west coast. We have killed more than a hundred people who entered our settlement.
of Hicks soldiers, but then they sent thousands of Hicks soldiers..."
"Can you use muskets?" Claude asked.
"Of course, our settlement once bought more than two hundred muskets from the adventurers who came to explore, otherwise we would not have killed so many Hicks soldiers." The Nikancha man named Kuka answered confidently.
.
"It's okay to give you some muskets and ammunition, but these are all our seizures. What price can you pay?" Claude asked with a smile.
"Sorry, sir, the wealth of our Cumanli settlement has been plundered by those despicable Hicks, but I am willing to use my most precious treasure in exchange for your muskets and ammunition." Kuka said, beside him
The woman in the linen burqa stood up and unbuttoned her clothes...
"This is my little daughter Aimo, who is also the saint of our divine religion. I am willing to dedicate her to you, and let her take care of your daily life. I just hope that you can treat her better..."
This is a Nikancha girl about seventeen or eighteen years old. She is indeed very beautiful, with a slim and sexy figure. But Claude just glanced at her a few times and shook his head: "I don't need your daughter to follow you.
With me, you don’t need to trade your daughter for musket ammunition. I have a suggestion that you can consider. This may be the best solution for you..."
