Chapter 261: Fatal Blow
It was a young man who spoke. He is quite handsome, with thin and long eyebrows, thin lips, and the corners of his mouth are always slightly upturned unconsciously, giving people a sense of pride.
In fact, young people are indeed proud people.
In the Riga Empire, which advocated military expansion, there were countless young men with military talent and potential. Young people can stand out among them and counsel military affairs in this world-renowned war, and they really have capital to be proud of.
The adjutant was already desperate, and listening to his words was like a drowning man grasping the last straw.
"What can you do? Say it, say it! ”
The young man glanced at Marshal Banks, but saw that the old man was unmoved and unresponsive.
"The enemy's troops are strong in combat and very skillfully commanded, and we may not have a good chance of winning this battle."
As soon as the young man came up, he got straight to the point and said his conclusion. The adjutant listened and was greatly disappointed.
Without waiting for him to speak, the young man continued.
"The advance of the enemy is so strong and powerful that our army is simply powerless to resist. If I were the commander of the enemy army, I would definitely let the Chinese army slow down, and the left and right flanks would advance quickly together, forming an encirclement of the left and right pincers. In this case, we are afraid that we will be annihilated! But the other party didn't know why, so he just cared about letting go of the attack, but did not take into account the coordination and cooperation of all parts. As a result, the left flank attacked too quickly, and the entire front slowly tilted to the left. If our army retreats with the trend and pays a certain price, it should be able to retreat smoothly. Although the casualties are bound to be small, they can finally retain a trace of vitality, and then plan for the future. ”
The proud young man finished speaking in one breath and looked at Banksy with hopeful eyes, hoping to be recognized and accepted by the old man.
When the adjutant heard this, he was very disappointed, and thought that this rising star of the younger generation had some clever plan to turn the tide into victory. I didn't expect it, but it was such an idea.
Not to mention how Anthony intends to do so, whether it is as the young man said. It's just that now that you're at a disadvantage, it's so easy to retreat. "Pay a certain price" that the young man said, it is likely that he will lose all the old capital of the Riga Empire, and where is there anything to speak of.
Marshal Banks did not look back, but simply spoke to himself, his tone indescribably sad and lonely.
"It's useless, Anthony's purpose is to annihilate our army and settle the war in one battle. There could never have been such a glaring flaw that he would fall short. In fact, the remedy is not to start this general battle at all, but to slowly maneuver with the enemy and wait for a turnaround. Now in this situation, it is too late to do anything. ”
What the young man said, with the eyes of Marshal Banks, how could he not see it.
But as he said, with Antony's means and performance that even the god of Riga ** was amazed, how could he make such a low-level mistake.
It's like two top chess masters playing against each other, if the general trend is clear, there is no need to play to the last move at all, and the one who is at the bottom can push the table and admit defeat. If you continue to entangle, expecting your opponent to make a fatal mistake, you will already be stalking, and you will lose again.
"But ......"
The young man is in a hurry, and there is still a need to argue. But Marshal Banks didn't pay any attention to it at all, just watched the changes ahead, and looked sad and lonely.
Strictly speaking, Marshal Banks was not wrong. In his eyes, the battle was now a clear victory, and the Riga Empire was no longer able to turn the tables around. Anyway, he has already lost, and he can at least choose to be defeated vigorously and dignified, and die in battle. Instead of turning around and running away, being chased and killed by the enemy from behind. In this way, the last trace of dignity of the Rigati ** people can be preserved.
But young people are equally right. Until the last moment of war, no one can guarantee that there will be no accidents and turnarounds. Even if you survive, if you can wait for that opportunity, everything will be worth it.
The two have their own reasons, and it is difficult to say whether they are right or wrong, but they are just different choices.
Banksy just watched quietly, and the rest of the generals and staff also stood beside him, staring blankly at the battle situation ahead, like a log of wood.
Dino, Yashin, and Peter each led their own troops, commanded the battles on various fronts, and took a group of officers with them. makes the command post of the Chinese army look particularly sparse and depressed.
It is estimated that their current situation and state of mind are also extremely bad.
The all-out engagement that was originally discussed, blossoming in many places, and making Anthony unable to take care of each other, now seems like a joke.
Marshal Banks didn't know how to feel at this time, but the people around him had no feelings, and their brains seemed to be numb.
The fate of these people is now foreseeable.
Suddenly, there was a tremor from the left side of the Riga Empire, and the sand and dust rolled up into the sky!
"It's the cavalry of the glorious empire!"
Those with sharp eyes have already seen from a distance that it is a group of cavalry, looking at the banner, but it belongs to the enemy camp.
"It's Tang Feng's cavalry, when did they come to the battlefield?"
Tang Feng led the two major alien races of the Lizu and the Dwarves to cause trouble everywhere in the Riga Empire, wreaking havoc on the order and organization of the Riga Empire, supporting and helping the resistance forces, causing great impact.
Although Banks believes that the primary threat to the Riga Empire comes from the army led by Antony, if it were not for Tang Feng's fanning and encroachment, the Riga Emperor **God would not have hurriedly gathered an army and fought with Anthony. In order to defeat Anthony's army, he then pulled out his hand and slowly cleaned up Tang Feng who was scurrying around.
It can be said that the defeat of the Riga Empire in this general battle, Tang Feng, who was thousands of miles away, also played an important role in promoting.
But when Banks and Anthony were fighting, Tang Feng was still far away. Why is it that at this moment, he has already descended from the sky with two major alien races, and suddenly killed in front of him?
Extrapolating from the time, unless it was the time when the coaches of the two sides were confirmed, Tang Feng had already received the news and set off directly. Otherwise, he would not have been able to catch up.
It was precisely from this calculation that Marshal Banks and a group of middle and high-ranking generals did not take Tang Feng's threat into account at all when formulating the battle plan.
Even later, information came one after another, saying that Tang Feng's unit had escaped from the surveillance of the Imperial Line Eye and had lost his trace. The middle and high-ranking members of the army only regarded him as repeating his old tricks, and secretly sneaked to the next target, and did not care.
Due to the defeat in the war against the glorious empire, the strength of the Riga Empire gradually became tight, and the resistance forces in various places gradually became more frequent and fierce. The official institutions and staffing of the empire in various places have been damaged to varying degrees, and the control over the local areas has plummeted, and it is not too incredible that Tang Feng has sneaked away.
But how could he be on the battlefield of this general battle? And as if pinching the time, he suddenly came out at this moment!
The faces of the middle and high-level leaders of the Riga Emperor changed greatly, but Tang Feng, who was leading the army over there, had a cold face as always, and the long sword in his hand waved violently towards the headquarters of the Riga Empire in front of him, and a loud shout resounded through the sky.
"Assault of the whole army!"
