Chapter 295: Appetizers
The expeditionary force of the Totem Alliance, after entering the Warcraft Forest, marched very fast, and could march more than 150 kilometers almost every day.
More than two months later, on the morning of September 20, 3312 in the Ragnarok calendar, the vanguard of the Totem Alliance Expeditionary Force was already less than 50 kilometers away from Golden Dragon City.
However, the vanguard of the Totem Alliance Expeditionary Force has been unable to continue to advance at this time, and in the past two months, the Golden Dragon City Garrison Corps of the Han and Tang Empires has established a huge fortification group around the Golden Dragon City, and the vanguard of the Totem Alliance Expeditionary Force has been blocked by the fortifications built by the Golden Dragon City Garrison Corps.
The vanguard of the Totem Alliance Expeditionary Force is composed of 10,000 Blood Wolf Cavalry and 10,000 Eagle Warriors, the Wolf Clan's name is Frica Regadat, and the Eagle Clan's name is Tovic Feleged.
The Regadat family is the most powerful family of the wolf clan, while the Felegod family is the most powerful family of the eagle clan, and the current Great Elder of the Wolf Clan and the Great Elder of the Eagle Clan of the Totem Alliance are from these two families respectively.
Each beast clan of the Totem Alliance has its own elders' council, and these elders will be directly loyal to the royal family of the Totem Alliance, and have a very great influence and appeal within each beast clan.
"I didn't expect the humans of Golden Dragon City to build the fortifications here, Tovic, what do you think?" The Wolf Clan's Captain Frica Regadat asked.
Tovic Feleged, the captain of the Eagle Clan, shook a pair of wings on his back, "Since the two of us have been chosen as vanguards, we must stop if we can't touch the enemy's fortifications!"
Frica, how about the two of us cooperate with each other and defeat the human army on the other side? ”
"Tovic, that's exactly what I want to say to you.
The first merit of this expeditionary force, the two of us are decided!
However, before we can attack, we must report the news here to His Highness Nicolai and General Pao. ”
"Leave this matter to me, our Eagle Clan warriors are much faster than your Blood Wolf Cavalry."
Liu Erga, the commander of the Golden Dragon City Garrison Corps of the Han and Tang Empires, after receiving the report from the 19th Independent Brigade, couldn't help but say to Li Tianshun, the deputy commander of the army, next to him: "Those beast cubs are finally here!" ”
Due to the existence of too many high-level flying demonic beasts in the Warcraft Forest, the Royal Air Force of the Han and Tang Empires could not even dispatch reconnaissance planes to search for the army of the Totem Alliance.
Therefore, Liu Erga, the commander of the Golden Dragon City garrison corps of the Han and Tang Empires, in order to avoid being attacked by the Totem Alliance army, extended the fortifications directly to the outside of the Golden Dragon City for dozens of kilometers.
Li Tianshun, the deputy commander of the Golden Dragon City Garrison Corps, was just an ordinary soldier in Longshan City when the Zhou family annexed Longshan City in Fengwu Town, and now he has become a major general in the Royal Army of the Han and Tang Empires.
Li Tianshun said with a smile: "We have prepared a rich feast for the army of the Totem Alliance.
Now that they're here, let's give them an appetizer first! ”
Liu Erga nodded and said, "Order a few air divisions to dispatch bomber groups to serve an appetizer to those beast cubs."
The 27th Separate Brigade, the 28th Independent Brigade and the 29th Independent Brigade were ordered to immediately reinforce the positions of the 19th Independent Brigade. ”
Today's garrison corps of the Golden Dragon City of the Han and Tang Empires is so large that it is a little insufficient to describe it as strong and strong.
Under Zhou Rui's instructions, many army units and air force fighters stationed around the capital Tiansheng City were transferred to Golden Dragon City and incorporated into the sequence of the Golden Dragon City Garrison Corps.
At present, the Jinlongcheng Garrison Corps has 4 armored divisions, 8 air force divisions, 6 infantry divisions, 3 artillery divisions, 40 independent brigades and 1 military headquarters, with a total strength of more than 900,000, which is actually equivalent to a small military region.
The independent brigade under the jurisdiction of the Jinlongcheng Garrison Corps is actually a garrison brigade drawn from various military regions, with an establishment of about 10,000 people.
On the other side of Golden Dragon City, a two-way alternate time and space node, there are also 2 entire group armies stationed there, which can support Golden Dragon City at any time.
The 10,000-strong Blood Wolf Cavalry and the 10,000-strong Eagle Warriors quickly launched an attack on the position of the 19th Independent Brigade of the Golden Dragon City Garrison Corps, but this attack was quickly broken up by the 19th Independent Brigade of the Golden Dragon City Garrison Corps.
In view of the characteristics of the Totem Alliance army, all units of the Golden Dragon City Garrison Corps are equipped with a large number of anti-tank rifles, machine guns and anti-aircraft guns.
The Blood Wolf Cavalry belonged to the light cavalry, and the wolf warriors and the blood wolves they rode were equipped with leather armor.
Although the leather armor is made of monster skin and has good defensive power, even the MG-34 general-purpose machine gun or MG-42 general-purpose machine gun of the Royal Army of the Han and Tang Empires can easily penetrate these leather armor, not to mention that the 19th Independent Brigade is also equipped with hundreds of anti-tank rifles and dozens of machine guns.
The 10,000-strong Blood Wolf Cavalry, in the face of dense fire, could not even get close to within 100 meters of the front of the position of the 19th Independent Brigade.
Comparatively speaking, the situation of the Eagle Clan warriors with a team of 10,000 people is much better.
The anti-aircraft firepower of the 19th Separate Brigade was so strong that even the MG-34 and MG-42 general-purpose machine guns, which were propped up with long tripods, could act as anti-aircraft machine guns.
However, the Eagle Clan warriors are very flexible in the air, and many Eagle Clan warriors shuttle through the dense anti-aircraft fire, and can also use crossbow arrows and javelins to attack the human officers and soldiers on the position.
Of course, no matter how flexible the Eagle Clan fighters were, they could not dodge the anti-aircraft fire composed of hundreds of machine guns and hundreds of anti-aircraft guns, and the Eagle Clan fighters were shot down by the anti-aircraft fire of the 19th Independent Brigade when they attacked the ground.
After seeing the terrifying firepower of the other side, the wolf clan captain Frica Regadat and the eagle clan captain Tovic Feleged had to order to stop the attack and wait to join the main force of the Totem Alliance expeditionary force.
However, the 8 air divisions of the Golden Dragon City Garrison Corps quickly dispatched thousands of long-range bombers, and under the cover of hundreds of fighters, flew directly over the marching team of the main force of the Totem Alliance Expeditionary Force and launched an air attack on it.
In the face of long-range bombers at an altitude of several thousand meters, the ordinary Eagle Clan warriors in the Totem Alliance Expeditionary Force could not fly that high at all, and only the Golden Eagle Warriors could attack the long-range bombers of the Royal Air Force of the Han and Tang Empires.
In the previous battle with the Totem Alliance army, the dive bombers were easily attacked by the air soldiers and wizards in the Totem Alliance army after diving down, so the bombers equipped with the 8 air divisions of the Golden Dragon City Garrison Corps are all American B17 long-range bombers.
The fighters that escorted thousands of American B17 long-range bombers were all American P51D fighters.
At present, in the Royal Air Force of the Han and Tang Empires, the American P51D fighter is second only to the jet fighter in all aspects of performance.
After several thousand tons of aerial bombs were dropped on the heads of the Totem Alliance Expeditionary Force, they caused very large losses to the Totem Alliance Expeditionary Force.
However, in the face of the fierce Golden Eagle soldiers, the 8 air divisions of the Golden Dragon City Garrison Corps also lost more than 100 American B17 long-range bombers and more than 80 American P51D fighters.
The Seventeenth Prince, Nicholas looked at the sky with trepidation, and then said to the Lion Clan General Pao Rovarig: "General Pao, the enemy's flying machine is too powerful, what should we do next?" ”
Pao pondered for a moment and said, "Your Highness, although the enemy's flying machine is indeed very powerful, our expeditionary force is not powerless, at least the Golden Eagle Warriors have also knocked down a lot of enemy flying machines.
Next, I plan to let the soldiers build a camp first, and then crush towards the Golden Dragon City step by step. ”
"General Pao, what if the enemy sends another aircraft to attack the camp of our expeditionary force?"
"Then we will have to rely on the Golden Eagle Warriors, but we can build some fortifications in the camp to protect against explosives dropped by enemy aircraft."
Knowing that the 8 air divisions had lost more than 100 long-range bombers and more than 80 fighters at once, Liu Erga, the commander of the Golden Dragon City Garrison Corps of the Han and Tang Empires, frowned and said to the deputy commander Li Tianshun: "It seems that the strength of the expeditionary force of the Totem Alliance is much stronger than we estimated.
Although it is not yet possible to determine the specific strength of the expeditionary force of the Totem Alliance, its size is definitely more than 300,000, and it is possible to even double it. ”
Li Tianshun said helplessly: "The intelligence power of our Han and Tang Empires in the Continent of the Gods is almost a blank slate, and we can basically only rely on the intelligence obtained from the Star and Moon Alliance.
In addition, there are too many high-level Warcraft in the Warcraft Forest, and the reconnaissance aircraft will not play a role.
However, since the expeditionary force of the Totem Alliance has come to the door, it doesn't matter if they are 300,000 or 600,000, even if it is 3 million or 6 million, they will still be destroyed! ”
Li Tianshun's words immediately made Liu Erga's frowning brows stretch, "Shunzi, you're right, no matter how many troops they have, our Golden Dragon City garrison will also destroy them." ”
After a pause, Liu Erga continued: "However, the position of the 19th Independent Brigade is a little flat, which is not very conducive to defense.
I felt that the 19th Independent Brigade, as well as the 27th, 28th, and 29th Independent Brigades, which had been reinforced in the past, could be withdrawn to the defense zone of the 2nd Infantry Division, so that the three artillery divisions could also provide firepower support to the front-line troops. ”
"I think it's okay, and at the same time, let the peripheral troops in other directions also shrink towards our Golden Dragon City.
Now that the traces of the Totem Alliance Expeditionary Force have been discovered, there is no need to spread the troops so big. ”
In the palace of Star-Moon City, the king of the Star-Moon Alliance, Yagshan Rodfili, was lying on the bed, and his breath was a little weak, and he asked the commander of the Guards Legion, Gerde Colano, "How is Golden Dragon City?" ”
The commander of the Guards Legion, Gerde, said respectfully: "Back to His Majesty, the expeditionary force of the Totem Alliance has arrived at the periphery of Golden Dragon City, and the Han and Tang armies of Golden Dragon City immediately sent a lot of planes to bomb the expeditionary force of the Totem Alliance, and both sides suffered losses on both sides. ”
After King Yageshan coughed a few times, he said helplessly: "Gerde, you prepare, if the Han and Tang forces in Golden Dragon City can't resist the expeditionary force of the Totem Alliance, you will immediately lead the Guards Legion to aid Golden Dragon City." ”
Gelder asked a little puzzled: "Your Majesty, you also said that the Han and Tang Empires are not friends of our Star and Moon Alliance, why should we go to rescue the Han and Tang troops in Golden Dragon City?" ”
King Agsan then said, "Either way, they are human beings, and although they look a little different from us, they belong to human beings after all.
What's more, once the two-way space magic gate of Golden Dragon City was snatched away by the Totem Alliance, it might not only be a disaster for the humans of the Han and Tang Empires.
I'm afraid that it will be a disaster for the five human nations of our Continent of Gods, as well as the Rock Alliance for the Dwarves and the Forest Alliance for the Elves. ”
Gelder nodded and said, "Your Majesty the King is right, although I don't know much about the world on the side of the Han and Tang Empires, but at least it is certain that the world on the side of the Han and Tang Empires has a large amount of iron ore and silver mines.
If the Totem Alliance has a large amount of iron ore and silver mines, it will indeed be a disaster for our five human countries, as well as the Rock Alliance and the Forest Alliance. ”
In the Continent of the Gods, silver has a certain resistance to magic, and iron is indispensable for crafting weapons and equipment.
Therefore, silver and iron are strategic materials in the Continent of the Gods.
After the Captain of the Guards, Gerde Colano, left the palace and arrived at the Legion's headquarters in Star-Moon City.
"Big brother, how is the king?" The deputy commander of the Guards Regiment, Pav Colano, asked.
Puff was originally Princess Deberna's chief of guard, but after Delder took over as commander of the Guards, Delder asked Princess Deborna for his brother Puff.
Subsequently, under the arrangement of Gyrde, Puff was soon promoted to deputy commander of the Guards Regiment.
Delder looked left and right for a moment, then lowered his voice and said, "Puff, you have to calm down, now is not the time for us to be unscrupulous. ”
Puff immediately lowered his voice, "Big brother, now that the expeditionary force of the Totem Alliance has arrived in Golden Dragon City, the army of the Han and Tang Empires is equivalent to being trapped in Golden Dragon City.
I think now is the best chance for our family to make a difference! ”
Originally, the Gelder and Puff brothers were loyal to the royal family of the Star and Moon Alliance.
However, when the two brothers had great power, there was something called ambition, which took root in their brothers' hearts, and with the help of some people, their brothers' ambitions soon grew into towering trees.
Gelder hesitated for a moment and said, "It's better to wait a little longer, after all, many captains of the Guards Legion have not fallen to us yet." ”
After that internal conflict, with the full support of King Yagshan, the Guards Legion has not only restored the establishment of 200,000 troops, but even expanded the number of 50,000 troops, making the total strength of the Guards Legion more than 500,000.
Puff said viciously: "Big brother, for those who don't know each other, we must implement thunder methods.
Without the turmoil of the Han and Tang armies, it would be an easy matter for our brothers to completely control the Guards Legion and even Xingyue City. ”
