Chapter 555: The Battle of North Carol (4)
An army without baggage simply did not hold out for long, and the pride of the soldier absolutely did not allow him to lose to a group of private armed men.
In the middle of the night, Montani quietly led the 7th Infantry Regiment to the town of Conrivo...... The village of Benjamin, the stronghold of the resistance.
While they were besieging the village, the nobles were still celebrating the day's capture, and the 7th Infantry Regiment immediately attacked, and the panicked nobles fought their way out of the siege, leaving behind a lot of corpses and all their baggage.
Montani, who had recaptured his baggage, was in a good mood, and although the 7th Infantry Regiment also suffered many casualties, victory was victory after all, and the enemy was just a private army of nobles. After a brief clearing of the battlefield, he looked at the tired soldiers and ordered to rest on the spot, although the enemy threw their baggage everywhere, but fortunately the house was not damaged and could still be inhabited.
He should have been happy to have won the battle, but for some reason, Montani felt a faint sense of unease, as if something was wrong.
An hour later, waking up in a nightmare, Montani was in a cold sweat, and he finally figured out what was wrong.
There are baggage and enemies in Benjamin's village, but there is one thing that is inevitable - all the civilians are gone!
It's a village of death with a death trap set up, waiting for the 7th Infantry Regiment to throw itself into the net!
The previous aristocratic armaments were nothing more than bait, and Montani made an unforgivable mistake.
Fate sometimes doesn't give people a choice.
Before Montani could raise the alarm, a terrible siren sounded from the sentry of the 7th Infantry Regiment in Benjamin's village.
Fire!
Blaze!
Bi Lin. Hegel carefully prepared for the 7th Infantry Regiment a fire large enough to burn Benjamin's village to the ground!
The 7th Infantry Regiment led by Lord Montani completely withdrew from the North Carolina Army at dawn that day.
……
No one cared about the outcome of Lord Montanie, and all eyes were on the city of Yolan at this time, and taking it would mean the end of the Rochester family's rule in North Carolina once and for all.
Through the binoculars, countless North Carolina troops and men in civilian clothing were busy in the fortified area of the fortified fortress...... This kind of defense was used by the Cordillera City Defense Army in the northwest battlefield, but I didn't expect it to be promoted. These men were so enthusiastic and focused that they didn't take the Cordillera city defense in the distance seriously.
"Ahh
Someone let out a sound of surprise...... He was one of the minor North Carolina nobles who were invited to watch the battle.
Many of the Cordillera city defense officers had disdainful looks on their faces...... These little nobles call for wind and rain on weekdays, and they seem to be quite powerful. To put it bluntly, they are just some local tyrants, just sitting in a well and watching the sky. If the city of Yolan is not even strong at this point, does it need the main force of the Cordillera city defense to break through?
"The Bukharin army is massing, but they are frighteningly slow. It seems that something is waiting for. "Petro. Hughes laughed and said, "The garrison is bored there, so I have to train every day to pass the time. ”
"They are indeed waiting, waiting for the news that we have conquered Yulan City." Barthes. Willie said confidently.
"Hah! Ha! Ha! ”
Many of the officers of the Cordillera City Defence burst into laughter.
Originally, after the main force of the Cordillera City Defense Army landed in the port of Madanton, the North Carolina Army made the wisest choice. It should be to gather all the troops, retreat in the direction of Yulan City to preserve the strength, and leave it for the decisive battle.
Mikhalin, the commander of the North Carolina Army, was well aware of this and quickly drew up a plan for concentrating his forces and retreating.
It is a pity that Archduke Joshua, who is now at ease with anyone, vetoed Mihrim's battle plan. He believes that the strength of the North Carolina Army has not been greatly damaged, and it is not time to admit defeat. If all the troops were to be concentrated in Yolan City now, it would become an isolated city, trapped here by the enemy...... In other words, Joshua was determined to keep gambling until he had lost the last carat in his hand.
Of course. Joshua was only decisive in the general direction of strategy, and tactically, he still believed in Mihrin's leadership.
In desperation, Mikhalini finally came up with a battle plan to defend the east and the west and annihilate the south. At the same time, Commander Mihalin ordered the dispatch of a large number of search teams to loot extensively within the province, and to concentrate useful materials and equipment, livestock, and young and strong laborers in the city of Youlan, and he wanted to build the city into a fortress of war.
Commander Mihrin anticipated a large-scale operation for the North Carolina Army. The Cordillera army will do its best to stop it, and it is very likely that without waiting for a complete rest, it will rush to the city of Yolan and press the entire North Carolina army to speed up the contraction.
It is said that Archduke Joshua looked at this battle plan for defending the east and destroying the west and the south. After a long silence, it was approved.
To be honest, the flaws in the battle plan for defending the east and the west and annihilating the south made by the Mihalin City Defense Army are so obvious that people with a little military knowledge find it incredible. The core of the entire battle plan was entirely based on the fact that the Cordillera would willingly stick its neck into the noose prepared for it by the North Carolina Army. However, such a battle plan was unanimously approved by North Carolina. It's probably because they have poor donkey skills, and they're just looking for a step. Under the city of Yolan, the Cordillera Army and the North Carolina Army were cornered together.
The winner wins, and the loser loses.
If the Cordillera city defense army could not defeat the city of Yolan in a short time, it would inevitably cause the other two lords in the north to counterattack, and eventually fall into a desperate situation due to casualties and the exhaustion of food and grass, and be annihilated by the commander of Miharim.
Once the North Carolina Army can annihilate the main force of the Cordillera Army, they can immediately draw troops to support the enemy forces in other directions, and the three lords can even lead their armies to counterattack the Cordillera City Defenses.
On the contrary, if the Cordillera army can take the city of Yolan in a short period of time, it will not only directly destroy the foundation of the Rochester family's rule, but also stifle the two guys' impatience.
Commander Mihalin wanted to scare off the Cordillera army by gambling on his life, but the Cordillera army did not believe in evil, so he really gambled!
Interestingly, in North Carlo, the higher the rank, the more confidence you have in Yolan City.
The fortification of the city of Yolan. The commanders and officers of the North Carolina Army all knew that the creation of the so-called battlefield miracle must first be based on reality.
The camp temporarily built by nearly 100,000 North Carolina troops is afraid that it will not be easily breached even if it is doubled, let alone the impregnable city of Youlan.
In the Mihalin command, many operational staff officers worked day and night on the subject. I couldn't find any tactics that could quickly take Yolan City.
Based on this, Narnia believes that the city of Yolan is his greatest reliance, so he sits here.
The vast number of North Carolina officers and soldiers do not have the insight and analysis at the top level, and they only believe in one truth...... So far, Hathaway has not been defeated on the battlefield once!
Not so long ago. The commanders had told the officers and men of North Carol that the Cordillera commander was moving straight into the city of Yolan. It is self-defeating, and it will be completely annihilated.
In fact, it was Hathaway who played the North Carolina Army command a monkey. The Cordillera army not only fought under the city of Yulan, but also became stronger and stronger. Under such circumstances, will the vast number of North Carolina officers and soldiers believe the words of the commanders?
It is conceivable that at this moment, the morale of the middle and lower ranks of the North Carolina army is very low, except for the high morale of the troops in Yolan City, the rest of the troops are almost unwilling to fight the Cordillera army head-on.
Even the large army of the Carsel Province did not get a bargain from the Cordillera Army, and the North Carolina Army was willing to easily go to the Cordillera Army.
Besides, since Mikhalin commanded the forced requisition of military supplies, no one has been in the mood to fight hard, vicious, bloody battles - many of those forced conscriptions are their fathers and elders, and it would be strange if such troops could win the battle.
Exactly the opposite of North Carolina military personnel. The lower echelons of the Cordillera Army, the more they admired Hathaway, believing that they would reap another glorious victory, even the Green Elves and Barbarians, and the Orcs worshipped her as a god - she was probably the first nobleman to treat the Orcs as a full citizen.
……
Attacking the city of Youlan and attacking the city of Youlan are two completely different things in the eyes of the middle and high-level commanders and officers.
With the strong mobile combat ability of the Cordillera army, it is not a problem to get under the city of Yulan, but if you want to attack the city of Youlan. That's a lot of thinking.
At this moment, the city of Yolan was tight and loose, and Commander Miharin personally presided over the defense outside the city, while the defense inside the city of Yolan was commanded by Deputy Commander Nelson. Their smoke awaited the attack of the Cordillera army in silence.
The real is the real and the virtual, and the virtual is the real reason. By the time he arrived at the city of Youlan, he could no longer justify himself. Attacking the city of Youlan and fighting, the arrow is on the string, and it is impossible not to send it.
But the problem is that mid- and high-ranking commanders and officers have a broader perspective. Think more holistically. Yes, as is customary, Hathaway must have a miraculous means to treat the impregnable city of Yulan as flat ground, and can take it in three days.
It's just that the 100,000 North Carolina officers and soldiers guarding the city of Yulan will not be an ornament, and under the command, they are bound to fight until the last moment, bringing heavy casualties to the city defense army that is besieging the city.
If the fortifications of the city of Yolan were completely destroyed, the siege of the Cordillera city would have suffered heavy casualties. So, even if you occupy Youlan City, how can you solve the matter of those two great lords?
Therefore, some officers of the Cordillera army really lacked confidence and were very worried about the outcome of the decisive battle. However, after the battle began, all doubts disappeared, because the fierce fighting made it impossible to think about anything anymore.
……
The thick smell of blood permeated the vast outer area under the outer city of Youlan City, and the ground that had not been completely cleaned up could be seen everywhere with large blood stains, broken stones, scattered arrows and swords, damaged equipment parts, etc., and the large pits of magic bombardment could be seen everywhere.
For two consecutive days, the Panshi Corps swept the fortifications in the outer area of Youlan City day and night, and the battle was very fierce, with nearly 30,000 casualties.
Although the North Carolina Army knew that the hastily constructed perimeter defense system could not stop the Cordillera troops from attacking, they were entangled in peripheral battles, but they were only consuming their troops.
Of course, Commander Mihalin had an eye on the fact that the more than 20,000 North Carolina troops he deployed on the periphery were second-rate combat units.
Under the pressure of the enemy's main force, the Cordillera army should not dare to devote all its strength to attack the city of Yolan, and the more than 20,000 North Carolina troops should not have any major problems holding out for ten days with their backs, and if Hathaway is in a hurry, he is even interested in biting him back.
Due to the absolute control of the Cordillera army during the day, more than 20,000 North Carolina troops on the outskirts of Yolan City formed a melee situation with the Cordillera. This made Lieutenant General Nelson afraid to send reinforcements. Because the other side has the right to control and control, the perimeter defense system is not perfect. The main force of the Demon Legion has not moved, and hasty reinforcements will turn into a refueling tactic, allowing the Imperial army to consume a large number of Toray defenders on the periphery. Nelson did not dare to retreat the troops outside the city easily, because in the case of a melee between the two sides, one side hastily withdrew its troops, which was very likely to form a great collapse.
As a result, Nelson could only sit back and watch the more than 20,000 North Carolina on the periphery eat up with superior forces and air cooperation, and could not make any moves.
Joshua was pleased with this. He held that judging from the proportion of casualties, the duration of the battle, and the morale of officers and men, the outcome of the fighting in the outer areas was acceptable.
The depressed Nelson knew that after this battle, the North Carolina army on the city of Youlan completely lost the tactical initiative, and there was no possibility of going out of the city to counterattack, and the whole army had only one way to defend the city of Youlan.
Fortunately, Nelson did not expect much from Mihring's troops, relying on the city's strong defenses.
Boom! Boom! Boom......
The earth-shattering drums of war sounded, and the Cordillera siege troops, which had gathered in the sortie position, began to attack the city of Yolan almost as soon as it was dawn.
I am confident that I will *********** hit the water for 3,000 miles in 200 years***********
