Chapter 1128: One Trick Eats All Over the World (15/18)
Avila's reply put Uace in a dilemma.
"From this point of view, Great Xia is really ready to fight on two fronts." Uace had a headache, and keeping Luzon and Australia was not only because of the alliance, but also because of the strategic security of Java.
Among the few remaining countries in Southeast Asia, Pyu and Johor no longer dare to confront Bactria and the only allies of Java are Luzon and Australia.
Once the two places fall, the state of Java will definitely be lonely and will be consumed by Great Xia sooner or later.
"Let's support a wave first, and adapt to the situation." Uace made up his mind to prepare to send 100,000 troops to Melbourne City and Ilo City respectively, and whether to increase troops in the future depends on the subsequent development of the war.
Both armies are teleporting.
The waters near Java have been firmly blocked by the Great Xia Fleet, and Wu Aisi does not dare to take the sea route, once he is intercepted by the Great Xia Fleet at sea, it will really be wronged.
…………
The arrival of 100,000 reinforcements from Padang City made Avila breathe a sigh of relief for the time being.
According to front-line intelligence, Great Xia currently only sent two Janissary Field Corps, with a total of 140,000 troops; The Australian side contains 200,000 royal forbidden troops, 100,000 territorial troops, and 100,000 reinforcements.
If you include the combat pros, the odds are quite good.
It's just that when I thought that Great Xia sent the most elite Praetorian Guard, Avila was bottomless again.
Fortunately, as the lord, Avila is also quite decisive, preparing to reorganize the army early tomorrow morning, and lead his troops to the royal city of Canberra to join forces with the royal forbidden army to jointly resist the invasion of the Great Xia army.
On the other side, the Great Xia Praetorian Guard was not idle.
The first formation of the Indian Ocean Fleet immediately returned to Australia after the successful landing of the Praetorian Guards, preparing to transport the remaining three field regiments of the Janissaries, together with the Auckland Corps.
For Australia, Great Xia is inevitable.
Although with the establishment of Liaojin Province, the shortage of iron ore in Daxia has been solved, Ouyang Shuo does not mind taking Australia and plundering more iron ore resources.
This lesson to Australia is also a demonstration to the Silver Hand, so that those members in the lower echelons of the Silver Hand will realize what the consequences will be if they rashly provoke Great Xia in order to cater to the organizational strategy.
When the fleet returned, the First and Fourth Legions of the Praetorian Guard, which had already taken Sydney City, were not idle.
The First Route is the First Army, also known as the First Division of the Rock Army, which is responsible for sitting in the city of Sydney. There are two responsibilities along the way, one is responsible for receiving the follow-up troops, and the other is responsible for cooperating with the Black Snake Guard to carry out the purge of Sydney City.
The purpose of the purge was precisely to cover the follow-up troops and not let Avila detect it in advance.
The second road consisted of an elite cavalry division of the Fourth Army, with Sydney City as the center, to sweep the surrounding cities, villages and towns, with the same purpose as the first army.
Finally, there is the third road, which is also the main force, which advances directly to the royal city of Canberra.
…………
November 9, 9 a.m.
The army of 100,000 territories in Melbourne will form a vast army with 100,000 Javanese reinforcements, set off from the city of Melbourne, and advance to the royal city.
In the face of the invasion of Great Xia, Melbourne declared war!
The players of Wangcheng got the news that although they had complicated senses about the arrival of Java and their self-esteem was hit to a certain extent, they still did not hesitate to praise Avila, the lord of Melbourne.
"Enough guys!" Everyone gave Avila a thumbs up.
Seeing that 200,000 troops came to help, the players in Australia suddenly became full of confidence and high morale, shouting the slogan of "Defeat Great Xia, protect my rivers and mountains".
Some anxious players even took the initiative to go out of the city, preparing to riot the Great Xia army along the way.
This is indeed a good sign.
On the other side, almost at the same time that the Melbourne army left the city, the second legion of the Praetorian Guard, that is, the tiger and leopard cavalry, and the third legion, which was the dragon's blood war cavalry, as the second group of expeditionary forces, quietly landed twenty miles outside Sydney.
The Fifth Janissary Regiment and the Oakland Corps remained in Oakland as the third expeditionary force.
The two cavalry units did not enter the city at all, and after landing, they quietly disappeared into the vast wilderness without any rest, because of the deliberate cover of the Rock Army, and the people of Sydney were kept in the dark during the whole process.
…………
In the blink of an eye, another day passed.
By November 10, despite harassment from players in the Australian Zone, the Praetorian Third Army had successfully reached 20 miles outside of Canberra and set up camp.
Canberra is halfway between Sydney and Melbourne, but it's by no means the centre.
In contrast, Sydney City is a little closer to Canberra City, and it is already a day late, and the Melbourne army at this time is still a day and a half away from the royal city.
No matter how much Avila asked the army to move quickly, it would be to no avail.
When the Great Xia Praetorian Guard arrived outside the city, they were not in a hurry to attack the city, after all, Canberra had a full 200,000 forbidden troops stationed there, and hundreds of thousands of combat professional players assisted.
If you rashly attack the city, you will capsize in the gutter.
Once the siege is in full swing here, the Melbourne army over there suddenly arrives on the battlefield, and it will be even more finished.
A tense day, fleeting.
By the morning of the 11th, the Melbourne army was only half a day's way away from Canberra, and the lord Avila was surrounded by the army in the middle, both preoccupied and faintly high-spirited.
"To be able to lead such an army, what more could I ask for."
Up to now, Avila has not received the news that there is a second batch of reinforcements in Great Xia, which makes him more confident, if he can really defeat the Great Xia army in one fell swoop, it will be an unprecedented feat.
Just as Avila was dreaming about victory, something happened.
First, the scouts in charge of the perimeter issued a warning, and then the outlying troops were in chaos, but before the main force could recover from it, the sound of horses' hooves rumbling on the distant horizon shook the earth.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”
The military formation, which was on the march, suddenly became in a commotion.
Avila's heart trembled, and a bad premonition rose, and he rode on a high-headed warhorse, and tried his best to look around, but saw the sound of horses' hooves rumbling in all directions.
Leaning slightly, I saw a black line, like a wave quickly crossed the horizon, towards the Melbourne army, and the momentum brought by the cavalry all charges made people's hearts chill.
In the blink of an eye, the black line turned into a black tide, intending to engulf the Melbourne army.
In the midst of the black tide, the red battle flags were particularly eye-catching, and the golden dragon flags fluttered in the wind, showing their noble and invincible identity.
Avila's heart was cold, and she muttered to herself: "It's the Great Xia cavalry, where did they come from?" ”
