Chapter 338: Chishui Offensive and Defensive Battle

Seeing that the front line was advancing smoothly, at this time Luo Zhengdao's suspicious problem began to attack again, and he touched the stubble on his chin on the battleship, and muttered:

"Goblins are too lax!"

Brando Scarlet, who served as the commander of the fleet, was cheated by the Redstone Brigade, and his vigilance had increased significantly, and he immediately chimed in:

"Yes, Your Majesty the King, those greenskins are likely to have a conspiracy!"

Zola Hegel, who was once again pulled by Luo Zhengdao to be the captain of the flagship, poured a large sip of rum from his neck, pursed his lips with his hand, and said in a nonchalant and playful tone:

"What can those greenskins do? I'm really not at ease, send a few reconnaissance planes out for a spin! ”

Hearing this, Luo Zhengdao was deeply convinced of this, he nodded, turned his head and said:

"Brando, you can arrange it!"

Brando Scarlet didn't care about Luo Zhengdao's suspiciousness at all, for a commander, it was better to be suspicious than negligent, he patted his chest and said:

"Yes, I immediately ordered the reconnaissance plane to take off."

For many years, Will Needham, the most wanted criminal, has been at the top of the goblin Second Empire's must-kill list, although for the entire country, it is the time of the fall of the main continent. Under the circumstances, the value of this disgusting-stirring stick is insignificant. However, if the goblin generals who are eager to make a name for themselves have the opportunity to kill the country's public enemies and the human aristocratic leaders in exile who have brought countless shames to the goblins, it is still a shortcut to get ahead quickly. Just imagine, a difficult task that no one else can do, but you do it as soon as you make a move, no matter what time it is, it is an excellent performance worth boasting about. Therefore, the number of goblins who wanted to lift someone's head to ask for merit and reward was far more than Luo Zhengdao expected.

Today, the goblin general with the idea of waiting for the rabbit is none other than the brigade commander Dedu Hongshi, who was once stationed in Qiongzhou, and it can be regarded as Luo Zhengdao's old acquaintance.

A few years ago, Luo Zhengdao and his gang once infiltrated Qiongzhou to rescue Captain Brando Scarlet, and then led the sheep to loot the small treasury of Haijiao City, and finally incited the local resistance in Qiongzhou to wreak havoc. finally looked forward to the routine change of guard, and the Redstone Brigade was sent to a rural place like Chishui to squat, naturally because of the negative impression. Even if Dedu's brain is not enough to use, the brigade commander can taste something, and the military department is disgusted with his incompetence, so he simply threw it to this turtle place to retire.

Self-abandonment is not a national characteristic of goblins, goblins have always been known for their tenacity. If the race is beaten to the death, it is like a rat crossing the street by the human army, and it can only survive by drilling the ravine, they should have killed themselves early on, and the goblins who have always been very persevering will not be defeated lightly.

Dedu Redstone was familiar with the situation in Qiongzhou, and naturally he was also familiar with the human resistance army based in Qiongzhou, and after judging that the human army occupying the island was likely to launch an offensive against Chishui, he sent a report in advance to the goblin army headquarters to deal with this stubborn enemy. Needless to say, the record of many defeats against Will Needham made the military department lose face, and they had long lost the confidence to completely solve the problem in World War I, knowing that there was little hope for Dedu's ambush plan, and the military department did not take over, but instead pushed the boat to meet its request in a comprehensive way.

In a word, the army for the army, for the equipment, the second goblin empire is not short of resources, if you ask whether this plan can succeed, it is estimated that when the facilitation conditions are given, the military department is already mentally prepared to reap the bad news of failure again.

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, those who do not. The hairy monkey came ashore. ”

Putting down the binoculars, Dedu Redstone's hideous smile added a little more gloomy to it, and said:

"Where are our reinforcements?"

"The Baisha Division is still a day away from us, and the Black Rock Division has not been able to contact them for the time being, and it is estimated that they are about to arrive."

Hearing these messages, the commander of the Redstone Brigade immediately puffed up his chest and said confidently:

"Oh, just hold the pirates for a day, and they'll be dead. Now is the time to convey my order to launch a counterattack. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency."

The brigade establishment of the Goblin Second Empire is roughly equivalent to the divisional structure of the Old World, and if you count the miscellaneous troops such as those local garrisons, the cards in Dedu Redstone's hand can barely be seen, however, what makes it difficult to determine is Luo Zhengdao's strange movements. The goblin generals had all seen the summary of the staff officers in the bulletin of the military department, this pirate king was a fierce and cunning character like a wolf, and he slipped away as soon as he turned his head.

The goblin army has repeatedly set up ambushes, and eight out of ten times have fallen into the air, even if they fall into the trap, the pirates who have risen up to fight are not necessarily soft persimmons that the goblins can eat, and this thing makes people scratch their heads when they mention it!

Luo Zhengdao, who claims to be a professional plucker, has always been in line with the perfect quality and professionalism of not bald, and has been dehairing the brute bull of the Second Goblin Empire for several years. Sensei said that he plucked two roots today and three roots tomorrow, although the damage caused to the goblins by each war was not large, and the goblins felt the pressure as the days went on.

Over the years, Luo Zhengdao has killed no less than 100,000 goblin soldiers in total, even if he can't talk about breaking his muscles and bones, at least it makes the military department feel painful, and they naturally have to be a little more cautious and cautious against this kind of tricky and cunning guy.

The Chishui ambush plan is not entirely hopeless, the goblins know Will Needham's usual style, this guy is an idle troublemaker, especially with an unusual dedication to cleaning, never tolerating the long-term presence of enemy troops near their lair, and it is a sure thing to pull a team out of Qiongzhou to sweep the surrounding area.

When will the human army run to sweep the Chishui, and how many troops will this king bring to the expedition, this is a factor beyond the control of the goblins, and it is not planned in advance at all! Anyway, from the analysis of the intelligence collected recently, someone is farming in Qiongzhou, and it is estimated that he will not be able to think of cleaning up the stubble of the Chishui Basin in the main continent for a while, and the goblin can't take the initiative to remind him, it won't be a startle, so the two sides are in such a stalemate.

Always holding his breath in his heart, trying to save his good future, the commander of the Dedu Redstone Brigade has made full preparations with perseverance, to fight a protracted battle with his new neighbors, in terms of probability, sooner or later Luo Zhengdao will have to come out of Qiongzhou to clean up the grass on the edge of the nest, right?

After reading it, the two bigwigs, the chief and deputy commander of the military department, unanimously expressed their expectation that it would achieve better new results, and the staff officers also believed that the combat plan was feasible after analysis. Although he didn't dare to hope that he could annihilate Will Needham in one fell swoop, as long as His Excellency the Brigade Commander could take it easy and not toss the Redstone Brigade into it, the military headquarters would already be very content.

"Your Majesty, the reconnaissance plane has sent a report that signs of activity have been found in the nearby area at the level of the Goblin Seat Wolf Cavalry."

After listening to the report, Luo Zhengdao twisted the corner of the white silk scarf hanging from his chest with his fingers, and said slowly:

"Does the local garrison have this structure?"

The wanderer who took the position of commander of the fleet was still not touched by the leaves in the flowers, but he spent part of his mind on doing the right thing, and the pre-war reconnaissance was personally deployed by Brando, and the goblin defenders had a lot of background, and the detailed Cheng DΓΉ he knew was not much lower than the commander of the Dedu Brigade. At this point, Brando replied in a very firm tone:

"No, absolutely not, I'm sure."

Hearing this, a smile appeared on his face, and Luo Zhengdao, who had turned his back to his hand, said softly:

"Well, the goblin has a pocket waiting for me to drill! Hehehehe, if we fight harder, they will have more time to go back to recuperate. ”

After that, Luo Zhengdao turned his head to look at Brando Scarlet and said:

"Command the attack! Let those greenskins tremble to the roar of our cannons! ”

"Yes, His Majesty the King."

In the past years, the goblin navy had the most dealings with Luo Zhengdao and his henchmen, followed by the few goblin armies that participated in the two Dongning offensive and defensive battles.

Garrisons such as the Redstone Brigade, which had long been in a second-tier position, were usually tasked with suppressing human resistance and escorting slaves to concentration camps, and their impression of human armies was largely that of a rabble that was on the verge of collapse at the end of the Bright Dynasty. No matter how much explanatory materials and intelligence the military department provides, the arrogant goblin generals will always habitually think that it is the negligence of their colleagues, or even the result of the incompetence of the commanders.

Dedu Redstone is undoubtedly a standard goblin general, brutal and cunning, murderous and feather-loving. When it saw that the pirate fleet began to extend its firing power into the inland area of the riverbank, it immediately understood that its plan had been seen through by the enemy, and with the temper of the goblins, the more stubborn the enemy's resistance, the more their fighting spirit burned, so the brigade commander issued a general attack order to his subordinates.

"Doodoo Dot ......"

The Goblin Military Department is indeed happy to see Will Needham, the Celestial No. 1 troublemaker, die, otherwise, they would not have approved the other troops adjacent to the Chishui Town Guard to fully cooperate with Dedu Redstone, and the question is whether the ratio between investment and income is appropriate, which is a matter that needs to be carefully evaluated.

The two battles of Dongning were fought one after another, and in addition to causing heavy losses to the goblins, it also reminded them to some extent that the speed of innovation in the weapon technology of the human army exceeded expectations.

At the post-war summary meeting, the goblin staff officers re-estimated the combat effectiveness of the human pirates with reference to the new number of battlefields, believing that even if the operation of the Restoration Army in the Chishui Valley was not a one-way outing, it would take 100,000 goblin troops to ensure the annihilation of this force, and in addition, the additional requirement of killing a specific character would require 200,000 goblin troops to enter the battle to ensure the completion of the mission. Converted into an army structure, the minimum standard is four regular divisions and regiments, or even eight divisions or more troops. This exaggerated algorithm undoubtedly exceeded the psychological limit of the bigwigs, so the plan finally approved by the top brass of the military department was that four divisions and three brigades would cooperate to set up an ambush.
