64 Big and small characters

"41 soldiers were killed and more than 4,700 enemy troops were annihilated..." Modell was sitting on a chair in the city hall, listening to the report of his subordinate officers. All the furniture in the city hall came from Eiland Hill.

Products, even candlestick ironware.

Although not very beautiful and elegant, the industrial products of Alain Hill destroyed the local handicraft industry in Arant, making countless people unemployed and poorer, and made countless people begin to resent the Arant Empire that exploited them...

"The consumption of bullets has increased exponentially. The effect of heavy machine guns is really... amazing. However, their consumption is also very terrifying. A total of 6,000 rounds of bullets were used up in less than ten minutes..." An officer led

He said to Mordelaire with a little awe.

"It's not much." Modell waved his hand and said to his subordinates: "If we fall into street fighting, the losses will be greater and the consumption will be greater. In fact, the enemy can be annihilated at the crenel.

This is something to be thankful for.”

Two machine guns, fired for ten minutes, can pour out an average of 300 rounds of bullets per minute! Such firepower was unimaginable a year ago, and it is definitely a miracle of industrial civilization now.

The Ailan Hill troops, which lacked the last shortcoming, can now be said to be invincible. The only thing they need to face now is the final test, the magic legion from the Holy Demon Empire.

"Deploy anti-aircraft guns on the top of the city. Place two machine guns in the gap, and scatter the remaining machine guns to the four walls! I want to form a complete air defense network here! Don't let the dragon knights get close to the city!" The victorious man

Mordelair was not happy at all and ordered himself.

On the one hand, the victory at this moment was an outcome that he could have guessed a long time ago, so he couldn't get excited at all. On the other hand, the dragon knights of the distant Holy Demon Empire were like a nightmare.

Before the victory or defeat, Modler was worried.

Another reason is that Modler has just received the exact news that the defender of Wolavo City, the man who fought to the end, is his acquaintance, the man who has worked with him before, and is an upright and elegant man.

The old man.

Franky... this name made Mordeler feel heartbroken. He felt that such an outstanding person should not die in such a battle. He even felt that Franky could serve for Alan Hill. If he

If I had been there at that time, I would have had a good talk with this old man.

Unfortunately, when Modell arrived at the gap in the city wall, the second battalion had already occupied the city head, and the first battalion had also taken control of the city hall. The soldiers who stayed at the gap to maintain order simply attacked Modell.

After introducing the situation of the battle, Mordeler saw the long sword still stuck on the ground.

The long sword Mordelair can be said to be quite familiar. It has Franky's personal emblem on it. It is also a very famous long sword in the empire. But now it is stuck alone on the pile of corpses, covered with blood.

It's hard to see its original appearance anymore.

After Modell walked over, he saw Franky's body. The old man who had taught Modell swordsmanship was lying peacefully on the ground. His body was covered with dried blood and there was no more blood gushing out.

of holes.

The old general with invincible swordsmanship was finally killed by a group of farmers who had only practiced assassination for a few months. The way to kill the old general was not a desperate fight, but a calm aim and a fatal shot.

Even though he saw corpses all over the ground, even though he had seen the live firing of cannons, and had long witnessed the ferocious firepower of heavy machine guns and anti-aircraft cannons, Modell still really felt the moment he saw the body of General French.

I truly feel that times have changed.

"Go and send a telegram!" After signing his name on the battle report for the capture of Wolavo City, Modell suddenly felt that he was a little less like a general. He felt that he was more like a clerk, a useless person.

A thief who can taste the fruits of victory by charging into battle.



Also having the same feeling as Modellaire was Bourjos. After his troops advanced to Maritsa, they only fired two cannons before the opponent surrendered: not everyone is as stubborn as Franky, especially

After witnessing the power of cannons, the timid guard not only surrendered the intact city, but also brought a total of 20,000 prisoners...

In this way, Eiland Hill has actually almost completed their offensive goals. They have captured most of the cities they want to capture, and have obtained many of the resources they want.

The many stories they heard from the great magician of Frunzberg gave Eiland Hill a very clear goal for this southward attack. They hoped that through this attack, they could master the magic of Arant.

Concentrate!

Among all the campaign goals, this goal is placed first. Among the magic concentrates of the Arant Empire, the northernmost one is just east of Volavo. This is why after formulating the plan, it is placed on the front

The ones on the top are the 5th and 6th Divisions, and the one on the side is the 4th Division with a higher number.

According to the plan, the subsequent reserve regiments that enter the territory of Arant will basically fight in the direction of Volavo. What they have to do is very simple, which is to control the area east of Volavo and advance to the mountains.

, lay down that valuable mine.

As long as this piece of concentrate is available, Alan Hill can create a magic ball of knowledge. With the magic ball of knowledge, Chris can spread his knowledge and create more scientists and engineers.

With these engineers and scientists, the industrialization and modernization of Ireland will be faster, and the entire country will be on the fast track of rapid development, becoming an "industrial empire" that even the Magic Empire is afraid of.

Don't say silly things like the Magic Empire has forbidden spells or super magic. Industrial civilization is not half weaker than those powerful magics in the direction of destroying the world. Don't talk about those unreachable future technologies.

Counting only nuclear weapons, the ability of modern industrial civilization to self-destruct is already staggeringly powerful.

If you add in the scientists who wake up every morning and create the sun in their laboratories, then it really becomes clear whether the magical civilization will go faster or the industrial civilization will go further on this road of self-destruction.

It's hard to say.

Even the craziest magic spell cannot be powerful enough to create a sun, right? Think about those horrific chemical weapons and bacterial weapons... and even the future genetic weapons industrial civilization is constantly testing on the verge of death.

His courage is no less than that of the Magic Empire.

And war weapons are just a small branch among the many products of industrial civilization. What really makes industrial civilization take off is its incredible productivity and terrifying construction speed.

Of course, all this must be based on the fact that this war going south can withstand the attack of the Magic Empire. If the Magic Empire's army wins, then Elland Hill will fall into destruction, Chris

He will also become another "hero" written into history.

"All the Alant troops near Maritsa were wiped out. They surrendered as fast as our advance." Bourjos commented on the Alant soldiers and commanders in the combat briefing: "A group of people are not as good as

The peasant army."

In fact, his evaluation was very pertinent. The powerful Arantian border army had actually surrendered and was crossed by them. Those soldiers stationed on the border were the elite border armies of the Arantian Empire, but they chose to stand on the side of love.

Landseer's side.

The remaining elite troops have been mobilized south to join the battle against the Dothan Empire, so the remaining troops, especially those in the hinterland of the Arant Empire, are actually useless.

Therefore, before the reinforcements from the Arant Empire assembled under the command of Arant Hook arrived at the front line, the combat effectiveness of these guards defending the city was actually very limited.

What is more regrettable is that the reinforcements from the Arant Empire are still on the way, and all the places here that need reinforcements have been occupied by Ailanthir.

The only direction that is uncertain at present is the direction of Bude where Kolya is attacking. The battle there has not yet begun, and Bude is still in the hands of the Arant Empire.

There are many reasons for this situation. The most direct reason is that the border troops in the direction of Bude have not actually been weakened. Instead, they have been strengthened because Arant wants to beware of the Kingdom of Higgs.

These border defenders who were originally targeting the Higgs Empire have now become the biggest obstacle for Coria to attack Bude. The opponent has a total of more than 40,000 field troops, and there are actually 10,000 highly effective cavalry.

Kolya only has more than 5,000 people in his hands, which is almost one-tenth of the opponent's number. With this number, he still has to undertake the task of attacking Bude City. Counting the defenders in the city, Kolya's numerical disadvantage is even greater.

obvious.

But it's not without good news. At least the reinforcements from the Steppe Empire have arrived. These cavalry can offset the superiority of the Alante Empire's cavalry. After Kolya waited for 10,000 steppe cavalry to arrive, he finally started a tentative attack.

.

This battle, known as the Battle of Bude, broke out in the spring of 1743 in the Magical Calendar, but the scale was not large. The total number of troops invested by both sides was less than 80,000.

The commanders of both sides are very interesting: on Elanhir's side is Coria, the adjutant of the fledgling General Vagron, a small character that no one knew before this battle.

The battlefield commander of the Allant Empire is the famous general Allant Lombak. He is not only a famous contemporary general, but also happens to be the uncle of the Emperor Hook of the Allant Empire and a serious royal relative.
