Chapter 875: Encounter

Simply having enough supplies was not enough to make the whole system work so efficiently, and the most important step in this was to isolate all other forces of Evta from Roddy from beginning to end.

If everything in this war had to be discussed with a great nobleman like the Earl of Rice, it would be impossible to avoid the infiltration of the logistics system. The huge and bloated administrative system is like a cancer to the logistics system, and Roddy didn't want to throw away a single gold coin, but in the end, only three copper coins were used for the war, and the rest were exploited by other nobles.

Therefore, on the third day after the war began, several nobles of the cabinet were still discussing the issue of grain transportation for which they were responsible in letters, not knowing that the eastern front had advanced more than a hundred kilometers.

Roddy was so happy that they kept them in the dark, continuing to practice Tai Chi in the midst of the letters and reading the war reports from the Temple.

"Prime Minister, our army is running too fast... In two days, more than 20 towns in four cities were directly laid, which can definitely go down in history!"

All this is consistent with Sodrol's plan, and it can even be said that there are no errors. But it did happen, and they still felt like everything was as dreamy as unreal. Duncan looked better, just flipping through the list of supplies page by page, heartache over the crazy consumption of gold coins.

"Going down in history? It's just getting started. ”

Roddy did not get carried away because of the momentary victory, he knew very well that he had forcibly created a "mechanized infantry division" through the improvement of magic technology, and the tactics he was implementing now were not his own initiative, because this was the famous "blitzkrieg"!

While others were still marching on their feet and pulling baggage with horse-drawn carts, Roddy used roads and trucks to directly increase the marching speed of the entire army, and at the same time used spar cannons to widen the "generation gap" in weapons and equipment.

So when Harrison's troops faced the Ivota Infantry Division, the situation was not much different from that of the Polish cavalry against tanks.

Although this mode of warfare is highly efficient and powerful, it has very big hidden dangers: the logistical pressure is far greater than that of ordinary warfare, and it can even be said that the load is more than ten times more than ten.

And once there is a disconnect in logistics, the consequences are absolutely unbearable!

"What we have to do now is to ensure the combat capability of the front-line troops at all costs, whether it is food, weapons or roads, all the resources of the whole Ivota will be supplied as a priority!"

Roddy was only responsible for strategizing and did not interfere with Sodrore's battle arrangements on the front lines. After all, the first half of the plan was successfully executed because the enemy was paralyzed, there were too many factors influencing the subsequent battle, and the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, all of which depended on Sodrore sitting in the temple and judging in time, and Roddy was thousands of miles away, needless to say, the result of forcible command.

Therefore, the only thing he can exert his strength is to stabilize the cabinet while not dropping the chain in logistics.

May 12th.

Bucky, a recruit of the 1st Infantry Division of Ivta, joined the army at the end of last year and has been training for half a year now.

He was at first a thin peasant like a hemp pole, but now he is a private dressed in tendon flesh and light metal armor. After the first battle on May 9, he took over the front troops as the second group of troops and participated in the advance battle on May 10, and after a day of rest on the 11th, Bucky was sitting on a bumpy and rocking truck with his comrades, continuing the advance mission.

The roads here are noticeably less paved than in the Ivota area. Because after the operation of the 11th, the advance of the troops can no longer be as unaware as before, and the road is built in advance at night. Therefore, the current mode of combat is that all peers - the road puppet is in front of the road as fast as possible, and the truck behind follows.

In such a situation, if they encounter an enemy, the soldiers in the truck can quickly adjust and fight immediately. Under normal circumstances, the forward speed is about 15 kilometers per hour. After all, the eight puppets in front of them pressed the road at the same time, and these drivers of the infantry division had already tacitly agreed, and this road, whether it was plains or hills, quickly planned a reasonable route, and the current troops set off from the town of Taki, 40 kilometers south of Dunkel City, aiming at the fourth-ranked city in the middle of the kingdom, "Soria City". If you succeed in taking the city, and then cross the Bordeaux River, you can directly target the territory of the former Count of Mirno, and look at the imperial capital of Charles II from afar!

Of course, these things are not something that Bucky needs to know, he just needs to follow the orders of the squad leader.

"Bucky, did you have breakfast?"

In the rickety seat, the squad leader opposite Entes asked.

Bucky swallowed and nodded, "Report to the squad leader, eat!"

In fact, he couldn't eat it, because after the battle the day before yesterday, the pile of rotten meat and scraps on the shelled position really made Bucky and his comrades have no appetite. But the squad leader said with a tiger face that he couldn't miss a bite of food, otherwise he would not have the strength to fight, and he would be looking for death when he went to the battlefield.

In fact, these infantry have never fought face-to-face until now, because after the shelling, the enemy will directly collapse and flee, all they have to do is rush over and directly occupy the town, and hold down the enemy who has not had time to run away and take prisoners.

"Looking at the virtue of your face, those who don't know think that the army's food has been deducted. You should be glad that you didn't go out to war with the lords, but I heard that when they go out to fight, the only meat they eat is maggots in the bread. ”

It's disgusting, but it's true. Now that the temperature is rising, the decay of the corpses can easily cause the plague, so the orders of the troops are very strict. You have to wash your hands before eating, you have to go to the toilet in a unified dug toilet, open defecation will be punished directly, Bucky knows that a few guys have been beaten with military sticks, and now his back is still bruised...

"Bang dang!"

The truck jolted violently, and everyone grabbed the handlebars to stabilize their bodies. This is usually done on a road with tree roots, after all, the temporarily suppressed road is in a hurry, and it is usually too late to clear the debris underneath, and the tree trunk or other things are often flattened and run over directly.

However, the root was clearly causing problems for the team, as three trucks loaded with large hedron cannons in the rear had to stop for repairs after they crushed several tires as they passed.

The sappers of the armored division immediately went to solve the problem, but the troop trucks did not stop, and still followed the road golems in front of them, after all, they had to protect these road golems from falling into the hands of the enemy. Coincidentally, as soon as the team continued to march for a kilometer, a large figure appeared on the low slope in the distance...

"Prepare for battle!"

The horn sounded immediately, and the eight road golems immediately stopped and quickly clinged together. They joined forces in pairs to form two high walls. In the rear, soldiers in more than sixty trucks were rushing down, drawing their weapons and lining up.

The round shield was raised, the hedron spear was erected, and within ten minutes, the soldiers of the fifty trucks in front of them had lined up on both sides of the puppets to meet the formation, and the roads here were all muddy, but the soldiers stood motionless in the mud puddles, waiting for orders from their superiors like nails.

The rear artillerymen were assembling the hedron cannons, and the troops that appeared on the hillside had begun to dive down - they were dressed in colorful clothes, with all kinds of weapons in their hands, and the number of people who led the horses was about a hundred, and among these knights were also of different colors, and at a glance, only a third of them wore armor, and the rest were mainly leather armor.

This is still the equipment of the knights, and as for those infantry, there is basically no armor to speak of.

Bucky had already put on his helmet at this time, carrying a shield in his left hand and carrying the "Elondegar's Long Sword" in his right hand, in the dense infantry phalanx, this sword seemed to have a steady stream of power coming from the palm of his hand, making him inexplicably feel that his senses were much more sensitive.

But listening to the vibration of the horse's hooves on the ground in front of him, Bucky still felt the tension spread. The adrenaline made his body tremble slightly, and although the sky was cloudy at the moment, and the air was not hot, sweat still dripped down the edge of the helmet and fell to the ground. He looked ahead, stood up straight like everyone else, and listened to the words of the squad leader in his ear - "It's all for Lao Tzu to stand firm! I didn't let me move, no one can move! I said rush, whoever dares to fall behind will try!"

In fact, they have heard this 10,000 times, and they have heard it every day since they started military training half a year ago, and now, they have forgotten what "escape" is, and their brains are only left with "obedience".

The enemy seems to be advancing, but it is still more than three kilometers away. The current visibility is almost twenty kilometers, so it is simply impossible for such an enemy to surprise the Ivta Infantry Division. And when the artillery battery in the rear was ready to go and prepare for battle, the enemy stopped at a position almost two kilometers away and began to rest.

This is something that cannot be helped, and the soldiers on both sides are not robots with unlimited physical strength when fighting. After being armed, the horses that have run for two or three kilometers cannot continue to sprint, usually at this time the two sides will wait for a while, and then start to move forward almost at the same time, and start to fight the enemy. However, the Ivota Infantry Division remained motionless, as they waited for the three giant artillery hedrons and artillery that were being repaired in the rear...

But the armies of the lords in front of them didn't seem to know this, and after a brief correction, they divided into seven or eight teams, which looked like a lord with a group of men, and then began to march in this direction at the same time. The nobleman's flag fluttered in the wind, and Bucky looked at it for a long time, and found that he could only see the colors clearly, and he couldn't tell what the patterns were at all.

Whatever, just fight.

From a distance, the number of enemies seems to be quite large, and Bucky guesses that there are probably at least two thousand or so. And on their own side there were only 1,080 infantry, and the remaining more than 100 were artillery. There were only a dozen cavalrymen, and they were only responsible for reconnaissance rather than combat.

Hit head-on?

Bucky didn't know how the decision was made, he only knew that the battle he participated in the day before yesterday was "storming" - saying that he was going to capture the town, in fact, he was running over with his weapon and it was over. If you want to talk about real sword slashing, Bucky has never been.
