Section 28 Battle of the Tillman Region (IV)

Surrounded by mountains to the north, the northern part of Manwysburg is connected to the mouth of Manwys Gorge to the northeast and the fortress group of Bandara Fortress to the west.

More than 300 years have passed, the old empire has fallen, and a new war between humans and elves has not broken out, but the emperor of the new empire has to plan a grand battle here to break the war situation against the undead legions.

On the front line command platform of the Allied Army, Hades looked at the continuous military formation in front of him, suppressing the excitement in his heart, this was an opportunity for him, the best opportunity to climb to the decision-making level of the empire.

As a representative of the upper echelons of the army from a civilian background in the Empire, Hades had never dared to expect to enter the decision-making level of the Empire before, because the extravagant hope would make him fall into the political trap unknowingly, he had seen too many such things when he was a sergeant major, and he had acted as the executioner of some people several times.

So, during the time he followed His Majesty the Emperor, Hades tried to keep a low profile and never appeared at any banquets of the imperial nobility, he packaged himself as a real soldier, a reckless and politically unwise soldier.

The opportunity finally came in waiting, much sooner than Hades had imagined.

But at present, the first problem to be solved is that the mountains and forests in front of them are not entrenched in living creatures, and the task assigned by His Majesty the Emperor is completed.

"Boom... Boom..."

Between the tongues of the artillery, a continuous stream of shells pierced the dim sky, blasting through the barrier of the undead held up over the mountains and forests, and the loud sound woke Hades from his contemplation, and the grand battle scene in front of him suddenly became clearer.

"The undead barrier has been dispersed, and it's time to give the order for the army to advance, sir. Hades' chief of staff, Viscount Baron-Anto, reminded his boss that he could easily guess what his boss was thinking as he was born into a traditional aristocratic family in Crewe, and he tried to suppress the disdain and ridicule in his eyes.

Hades glanced at his chief of staff, "Let the boys get moving, and let the soldiers carry out the will of His Majesty the Emperor!" he picked up the pen he had with him and signed his name on the authorization form handed by Baron Anto.

After the more than a dozen heralds left, the flag bearers on the high platform began to wave the huge command flags in their hands.

After a few seconds, the sound of the horn became louder than before, accompanied by the sound of the galloping hooves of the herald's mount, and the rhythmic trumpets and organs rose and fell. In the next moment, an army of 100,000 marched at the same time, and the earth-shattering sound was like a giant hunting in the forest, and the rotten earth trembled.

In the sky, countless flares tore through the dim sky, and the flames emitted by the bombardment of gunpowder-scented shells in the belly of the mountain illuminated half of the sky, setting off waves of air that made countless high-flying battle flags fly.

In the violent explosion, the shrill screams of the undead echoed in the mountains and forests, and a row of huge rocks with green fire fell in front of the Allied army, and then there was a "click" sound from the inside of the rocks, and they began to shake and transform like squirming ooze monsters, and in the blink of an eye, they turned into a flame puppet with a height of more than five meters.

"Shoot!"

"With a magic musket!"

"Bang Bang Bang"

The soldiers, who had been preparing and practicing magic for two months, instinctively raised their magic guns in their hands at the sound of the officer's military order, and prepared in advance to draw bullets with frozen magic circles to cut through the void in the concurrent fire tongue and nail it to the flame golem.

The ice flower continued to spread, and in an instant, half of the flame golem was frozen.

"Heavy crossbow ready!"

The heavy crossbows dragged in the military formation stopped and turned their bowstrings at the sound of military orders, and a row of scorching flames in the dark sky was smashing down, and more than a dozen heavy crossbows that had not had time to open their shields and the surrounding soldiers were immediately evaporated by the scorching high temperature flames.

"Shield! Open the shield!"

"Pick up the pace, charge!"

The officers shouted at the top of their voices, and when the army of death rushed down from the belly of the mountain, the officers in the front row also began to charge with their swords raised and shouting "Your Majesty the Emperor".

A brutal war of attrition begins!

...

In just four hours, near noon, the Confederates had managed to break a line that had not been shaken for two months, and when the news reached the front command, Hades' eyes were red with excitement, and he sent the news back to the general headquarters as fast as he could, and at the same time ordered his headquarters to be pushed forward ten kilometers.

However, for ten consecutive hours, the Confederates could only stand still, and His Majesty the Emperor of the Manwis Gorge Fortress had already issued two orders in this hour, urging Hades to break the stalemate as soon as possible.

"We have the most powerful offensive ability, why can't we even attack a small high ground?" Hades suppressed the anger in his heart, pointing to the mountain peaks that were faintly visible in the night outside his improvised command post, "I need to take that damn high ground in two hours!"

"Sir, I suggest that the Baru be used as the vanguard, as they are more capable of attacking in the mountains than we do. Baron-Anto frowned at his boss's current performance, "Our soldiers are all heavily armoured, good at fighting in military formations, and cannot form combat effectiveness in the mountains and forests, His Majesty the Emperor has deployed the Balu people to us for this damn highland defense area, you shouldn't put them in the rear to carry supplies." ”

"Are you teaching me how to fight?" Hades certainly knew how to use the Baru, but he didn't want to use troops other than the Imperial army because it would make his file less perfect.

"I'm just giving you advice, and the decision is yours, sir!" Barron-Anto bowed slightly to show that he had no intention of challenging the Chief's authority, but then he added, "But don't forget Your Majesty's plan, you... It should be clear how important our battle is in His Majesty's plans. ”

"You..."

"Sir!" the military newspaper staff officer interrupted the argument between the two, "the latest order has come from the fortress station... His Majesty the Emperor must receive good news in two hours, otherwise he will change the commander of this campaign. ”

Although the bonfire in the command post was burning vigorously, Hades still felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar when he heard the words of the military staff officer, and the biting chill instantly hit his whole body.

"Boom"

At the same time as a loud explosion was heard outside the command post, and the sky-high flames rose, Hades took a step forward and looked at his chief of staff, Baron Anto, "Bring General Amdani, we need his help now." ”

The smile on Baron's face was uncontrollably revealed, "Yes, sir!"

...

On 3 December, the morning of the third day of the Confederate counteroffensive at Felder.

After two days and nights of continuous attacks, the Misa Kingdom and Felder led the combined forces to clear the defense line set up by the undead legion on the outskirts of Felder City.

At the same time, the battle in the mountainous area north of Tillmanburg has also entered a critical period!

To the west of the woods, the elven army had routed the undead legion's stronghold, while to the east, the Confederates had forced the undead legion into the last highland garrison.

Fort Tillman, inside the Supreme Headquarters of the main force of the Undead Legion,

The various legion commanders were arguing, and Enhi-Ella whispered to his assistant in the midst of the chaotic quarrel the battle reports from the front line.

Now, it's Enshi-Ella's turn to make the choice.
