Chapter 719: Counterattack
"The arrangements for officers at all levels of the 10th Army Corps shall be selected by Takara at his discretion and reported to the General Staff for the record. Lin Can continued: "The logistics supply will be solved locally for the time being, and when everything is stabilized, the General Staff will pay the relevant expenses." ”
"Yes. Takkara nodded happily, feeling like she had a backer again.
Previously stationed in Thurston, the rebel headquarters also asked the Black Panthers to raise their own food and grass supplies, but did not promise to pay for them. Therefore, the Black Panther Army was forcibly requisitioned locally, which has caused quite a backlash.
This time, the Black Panther Army returned to the royal legion sequence, and naturally resumed the royal family's supply to the legion, which also completely solved Takara's worries.
Takara has also heard of the royal family's strategy of collecting logistics grain and grass, as long as the royal family is willing to issue a receipt, there will always be a day when it will be cashed in the future, which is equivalent to a large amount of money to purchase logistics materials in the people, which is completely different from the previous clever and lavish grabbing.
"The garrison and subsequent tasks of the Tenth Army are tentatively to be reorganized at Thurston and to assume responsibility for the defense of Thurston. Lin Can continued: "The Second and Third Legions, which have moved five kilometers north around Thurston City, have selected a suitable position to camp and prepare to attack Wilk City. ”
He looked at Takara: "Soon there will be four more royal legions, the sixth through ninth legions. At that time, the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Legions will increase their troops in Thurston City, and join up with the Second and Third Legions to form an attack legion to point at Wilk City!
The 1st, 7th, and 8th Legions would take up camp in Svaud in preparation for an attack on Svaud. The Ninth Legion and the subsequent legions continued to maneuver to the right in the north, and eventually joined forces with the Left Army under the city of Belins!"
This is the core strategy of the General Staff, and Lin Can did not hide his secrets or precautions, so he explained the whole plan to Takara and his important generals.
Takara's heart was shocked, and he was deeply infected by Lin Can and the royal family's heart. He nodded at Lin Can and said, "Takara fully carries out the orders of the General Staff and does a good job in Thurston City.
Also, I have a good relationship with the rebel commander in Sveau, St. Ma, and I can do his work, and maybe it will work well. ”
"This is great!" Lin Can nodded happily: "If General Takara can persuade Svo City to surrender, he will be the hero of the royal family's rebellion!
"I'm really ashamed~" Takara said ashamedly: "Although I also have to suffer, but after all, I participated in the actions of the rebel forces, which is a great sin. His Majesty does not blame me, I will definitely atone for my sins and do my best!"
The situation changed dramatically because of the change of hands in Thurston City. Like a sharp knife in the chest and abdomen of the rebels, the five royal legions quickly assembled north of Thurston, ready to advance northward.
However, this was all a feint, and Wilk was not the next target of the royal army. While the Wilk defenders were all in the woods, Lin Can's special operations team had already protected Takara to secretly move south and reach the outskirts of Svo.
At this time, the 1st, 7th, and 8th legions had already joined forces under Svo, and 6,000 men surrounded Svo. The 4,000 defenders of Svo were terrified, not knowing what the future lay for.
At this time, the appearance of Takara gave the garrison a life-saving straw.
After a little contact with the supreme commander of the defending army, Shengma made the decision to surrender. Similarly, it is necessary to cut off the supervisors in the army sent by the internal affairs system, as well as those officers at all levels who have close ties with the top echelons of the rebel forces.
On a dark night, the city of Svo was filled with murder. After a local skirmish, Swo was completely in the hands of St. Ma.
Early the next morning, Shengma personally went out of the city to greet him, led Lin Can, who was the king's envoy, into the city and held a meeting of great significance.
According to King Kama's deployment, the 4,000 troops under Shengma were reorganized into the 11th and 12th Field Legions, and another general sent by Shengma and King Kama became the commanders of the two legions respectively.
St. Mart led the Eleventh Legion to defend Svo, and the Twelveth Legion crossed the Ranges of Aclyde to escort Thakara back to Thurston, and then joined the attacking legions north of Thurston, ready for any northward attack.
The city of Wilk was garrisoned with eight thousand rebel troops, which served as the outer barrier of the city of Belins. Because of the importance of Wilk City, Rennie, the former commander-in-chief of the Black Wolf Army, personally sat in Wilk City, preparing to fight to the death with the kingdom army.
This is an unavoidable tough battle, and it is also a moment for the field legion of the new kingdom to make contributions. There is no war without war at all, and there is no peace that is easy to obtain. Two days after Swo City's change of flag, Wilk's battle officially began.
The six kingdom field legions took turns to fight a decisive battle with the descendants of the 8,000 Black Wolf Army troops stationed in Wilk.
On the heights of El Heights, at least two legions of men and horses can be exported every day, and reinforcements are constantly being sent to the Wilk area. The logistical supplies and weapons received from the right army were continuously transported to the Wilk front, effectively supporting the siege of Wilk City.
The Wilk garrison, on the other hand, had no effective reinforcements to provide, and they were empty, running out of bullets, shells, and food.
After three days of fierce fighting, the besieging royal legions paid the price of 4,000 dead and wounded, and wore out 5,000 defenders of Wilk's garrison.
There is only one way to die. In the darkness of the night, Rennie and his less than 3,000 men secretly withdrew from the defensive positions of Wilk City, and fled in the direction of Belins on a hurried march.
Early the next morning, the people of Wilk City sent representatives to the front of the army, informing them that the rebel defenders had all withdrawn and that the royal army could be stationed.
Since then, the royal army has regained four-fifths of the kingdom and has pushed all the rebels into a corner. They could only retreat in the city of Belins, and fight to the death against the kingdom's army.
The momentum is like a rainbow, and the soldiers are in full swing. Eighteen field legions belonging to the royal family marched in unison, like a huge chariot, to advance all the way to the city of Belins.
As long as the last stronghold of the rebels is taken, the entire territory of the Kingdom of Bari will be liberated, and the war can end in a complete victory for the royal family!
In the boiling war, King Kama came to the city of Belins, setting off another frenzy of angry war.
The dense siege of Belins by the dense army of the kingdom was a repetition of the spectacular scene of the rebel siege that day, only this time the siege was also larger and the shock to the rebels was more violent.
At the same time, the army inside and outside the city was regrouping to prepare for this final battle. The General Staff held a pre-war meeting under the city to determine the operational strategy and the timing of the general offensive. Six agents from Huaxia also gathered under the city of Belins.
