Chapter 383: Surprise Attack (2)

The main task of the assault operation is to attack and harass, so that the enemy's rear is full of fire, and it is not the main point.

After defeating the small tribe of war pigs, all those who resisted were killed, and the imprisoned human slaves were freed and weapons and food were distributed...... They have two choices, one is to wait in place and become slaves again; The second is resistance, like a guerrilla rebellion. Most of these slaves were natives and were very familiar with the local geography.

……

Compared to the commandos' frightening strikes, the Cordillera City Defenses seemed too slow.

With the help of magic, the army secretly assembled in Lancais, carried by more than twenty large ships, quietly avoided the orc-controlled city along the coast of Buchar and appeared in the hinterland of Zimbwe Province.

This kind of lone deep attack, but providing and supporting, seems to be based on lightning rush, but Hathaway commanded the army to avoid all large and medium-sized cities, just like a military parade.

Out of dependence on Hathaway, all the officers and soldiers of the city defense army did not question it, even the barbarian warriors who had just joined the city defense army sequence, did not ask why, their loyalty to the divine envoy seemed to be unlimited.

Of course, Hathaway won't be idle. Prior to this, thanks to the effective intelligence work, the layout of the orc empire in the occupied areas had already been marked on the marching sandbox. As the army moved, small units were sent out to strike at the orc forces in the areas they passed, and the strikes were continuous.

Although the Orc Empire invaded this time, large-scale city massacres rarely occurred. But there were still many civilians who were killed, and being sold as slaves was the best outcome, so the orcs were also purged wherever the troops passed. Moreover, the liberated human beings, although their individual strength may not be as good as the city defense army, their combat effectiveness is not lower than that of ordinary armies, and those who have been insulted and whose relatives have been killed...... All kinds of pain turned into rage, and when they were armed, they were more murderous than the city defenders, and these people formed a very special team.

To the surprise of Hathaway and the others. While cleaning out those orcs. The troops met with resolute resistance, especially in the early days, when the tribes, which were originally thought to be weak, showed great combat power, and caused great losses to some of the despised officers and soldiers of the city defense.

Later, after interrogation, a group of prisoners were interrogated. Hathaway and the others only knew. This time the Orc Empire is waging war at the same time. Strategic migration, of which the tribes were allowed to enter the occupied areas, migrated from the bitter cold. The folk customs are extremely strong, and the combat effectiveness is certainly stronger than that of ordinary orc tribes.

Fortunately, this news was grasped in a relatively timely manner, and the city defense army changed its combat mode, which was able to realize the operational intention of the command headquarters in accordance with the law, and the operational efficiency and results were greatly improved.

What is the purpose of the battle?

In addition to demonstrating personal prowess, there are tangible benefits.

In the process of preparing for the battle, Hathaway and the lord's mansion formulated a series of rewards and punishments, including the "Spoils of War Distribution Management Plan", "Military Merit Statistics and Reward and Punishment Regulations" and other documents, and sent special personnel to the grassroots level of the city defense army to explain these plans and regulations to the officers and soldiers. Among these programs, there are also the "Measures for Guaranteeing the Livelihood of Disabled Officers and Soldiers" and the "Measures for the Trial Management of Pensions and Aftermath of Fallen Officers and Soldiers."

It must be admitted that after the introduction of this series of documents, the combat effectiveness of the officers and soldiers of the city defense has skyrocketed, and this is the source of their motivation. In particular, the distribution of the spoils of war and the statistics of military merits have greatly aroused the enthusiasm of the officers and men. As a very necessary means of encouragement, every day there was a mobile bulletin board and a radio broadcast passing by the team to report the statistics of so-and-so's military exploits and trophies, which further stimulated those officers and soldiers, so that everyone in the team enthusiastically hoped to get the opportunity to 'go on a business trip'.

According to the decree issued by the lord's palace, the spoils and military exploits of all officers and soldiers during the war were transferred to the heirs, even if they were killed in battle, which greatly protected and encouraged the enthusiasm of the officers and soldiers.

A series of incentives were transformed into dispatched actions, and within a radius of a hundred miles of the troops' movements, the orc immigrants were ruthlessly attacked, and in this series of high-intensity operations, the soldiers and combat effectiveness of the city defense army increased rapidly...... If when they first left the Cordillera Collar, they were still milk dolls, now these people have become men with a fierce temperament.

Women will degrade men, and war will make men mature!

Although this sentence will make women feel very uncomfortable, it is actually very reasonable. Today's city defense officers and soldiers only have the obsession of fighting, fighting, and fighting again in their hearts, and as for the terrifying combat power of the orc warriors, they have been selectively forgotten.

……

"Return!"

Flying at the forefront of the Flying Knights' squad leader Mike. Jordan, playing a series of eye-catching hand ...... Sign language training was originally reserved for special combat teams. Later, taking into account the peculiarities of the flight squadrons, they were also trained. The original flying squadron consisted of only fifty men, and the captain was Sicconi. Sheldon. However, after the Second Battle of Salem, another group of cadets from the base graduated, and the flight squadron was replenished, with a total of more than 200 people joining the flight squadron. The squad leaders are all soldiers of the original flight squadron, and they have rich combat experience.

Although the flight squadron has been expanded, it is still unable to undertake large-scale combat operations. Most of the time, the squadron is responsible for air cover and reconnaissance missions. They execute a tactical combination of three, like a main engine and two wingmen.

In the see Mike. Jordan typed sign language, Rico on the left. Johnny immediately commanded the vulture to descend on the other side of Richard. Rooney was not slow either, keeping an eye on his surroundings while following the descent closely.

Compared with the ground forces, the combat missions of the flying squadron are of course much less, and as a result, their captures and military exploits are much less, and compared to these, the high allowance of the flying squadron seems to be a bit of a chicken rib, so that many soldiers of the flying squadron are clamoring to apply for the abolition of the high allowance and increase the combat mission.

But. For flying squadrons, Hathaway was extremely cautious in its use.

In a world where there are no aerial vehicles, the significance of air power is clear to all military commanders. They must not be used as an army, otherwise they will be able to fight all in just a few battles. Even knowing that it was impossible for orcs to deploy a large number of flying knights in this area, Hathaway did not let go of increasing the combat missions of the flying squadron, which only special operations teams enjoyed. And in her hands, she always has a barbarian flying knight unit for mobility.

So, no matter how enthusiastic those flying knights were. Hathaway and Command refused to accede to their requests.

It must be admitted. Although the intelligence of the intelligence agencies was generally accurate, the battlefield was ever-changing, and it was precisely because of the reconnaissance and early warning of the flying squadrons that the troops avoided heavy losses. So outside of the allowance. Hathaway also gave a big reward. But. In the Titan world, which advocates personal bravery, the flying knights feel that the honor they get in this form is far less than the honor they get with a single sword.

After lowering the height. The three flying knights folded in formation, and Mike. Jordan takes off his helmet...... Although the vulture carries a heavy load, the armor that is too heavy will affect the vulture's mobility, so the armor of the flying knights is specially made and very light. Each Flying Knight will have a life-saving magic piece of equipment and will be equipped with a parachute, which will have a higher survival rate than other Flying Knights.

"It's still the fate of those guys in the special combat team, they can decide their own combat missions, and they can easily get military merit." Richard. Rooney said with some envy.

"Richard, the special forces team is not good fate, it is strength!"

Mike. Jordan said unceremoniously: "Many of the people who graduated in the same batch as you have entered the special combat team, why can people enter but you can't enter, is it just that they have no magical talent?" People train harder when you train, and people also train when you are resting, this is the gap, and it has nothing to do with life! ”

"Hey! Hey! "Richard. Rooney laughed dryly, but there was no embarrassment.

The ruler is long, and the inch is short. In terms of training and personal strength, Richard. Rooney is indeed not as good as his classmates who joined the special combat team at the same time, but he is quite good in learning to fly tactical command and organization and coordination, and he is also a reserve officer who has received key training. Mike. Of course Jordan knew this, and he just deliberately banged the teenagers so that they wouldn't get carried away.

Plumes of smoke suddenly rose from behind a forest in front of them, and a dozen snowy vultures rose into the sky and circled in the air.

"Hey, it's really a casual chatter, it's those guys from the special combat team!" Richard. Rooney shouted excitedly.

Sure enough, the flight was closer, Mike. Jordan also saw clearly that it was Alf's combat detachment that had just completed an assault mission, and on the ground, more than a dozen wagons loaded with trophies were quickly leaving the scene under the escort of a team of armed men.

"You're just a few of you, aren't you afraid of being caught up by the orcs?" Mike. Jordan asked from afar. The flight squadron and the special operations team have cooperated many times, and they are very familiar with each other.

"The orcs don't have much strength in this area at all, and even if we can't beat them, we can outrun." Alf didn't shy away from running away.

"Run? Don't want these loot? "Mike. Jordan pointed to the ground, although he was very righteous and awe-inspiring when he criticized the two players, but he was also a little hot when he saw the trophies.

"If they can grab it, we can grab it back, and if it doesn't work, we will burn it down, it's no big deal." Alf said nonchalantly, "Those who see have a share, today's harvest is as good as yours." ”

"Thank you then, do you need us to escort you for a ride?" Mike. Jordan asked.

"Then you don't have to. By the way, if you have time, go for a walk in the northwest direction, there may be some movement there. Alf shouted.

Moving?

Mike. Jordan's eyes lit up and he shouted, "Thank you, I'll treat you to a drink when I go back!" ”

After saying that, he flew in the northwest direction with two warriors.

According to the regulations, the flight squadron is not on combat duty. However, if there is an unexpected situation in the course of reconnaissance, it is possible to temporarily decide whether or not to join the battle. Mike. Jordan knew it was an opportunity, so he courted Alf.

At the same time, he motioned to the two soldiers behind him to be ready to enter the battle at any time, and he used his telescope to observe the surrounding airspace and the ground from time to time, looking for traces of the enemy. (To be continued......)
