Chapter 170: City and Point
The military vehicle made a thrilling journey through the wilderness and finally arrived at the expeditionary force base codenamed "Glorious Front", leaving only a few long ruts and winding its way back to the unknown.
The Glorious Front Base is difficult to define as a few cities or a single military camp, it is more like a unified union, but it is composed of expeditionary forces and expands into the dark forest in a deformed manner.
The Glorious Front was based on six cities, slightly smaller and more modest than those in the heart of the Bolton dynasty, but also quite large, and always maintained the characteristics of the war years—tight guards, a network of fortress guns, heavy artillery fire, and towering walls.
Among them, five acropolises numbered 12345 are in the shape of pentagrams, arching the main acropolis in the center.
Directly to the east of the acropolis, a barrier was erected from the north and south to defend against attacks from the wasteland, and on the west side went directly into the forest, in which a large number of outposts were scattered. The newly expanded outpost will stockpile large quantities of arms and combatants for further advancement, while the old site will become a logistical supply depot. From the beginning of the establishment of the Glory Front, there were three thousand two hundred and fifty-six sites on the record, like a burst of fireball, spraying countless sparks from the core.
Each acropolis and outpost was connected by road for military vehicles and horse teams to pass through, and supplies and combatants could travel from the main acropolis to a site at the forefront of the forest in five days.
I have to say that such a steady and steady way is also the experience accumulated by countless predecessors with blood for thousands of years. When Amos the Great exiled the remaining alien races, he only drove them into the deepest part of the forest, and the army was unable to return in the face of complex jungle warfare.
When Amos the Great passed away many years later, it became the long-cherished wish of all kings and popes to let the iron horses of the dynasty run through the forest and let the glory of God the Father descend into the abyss.
This was one of the few things that the royal family and the Holy See agreed upon, and they were more concerned with the forces that threatened their dominance than with the Glory and the Path of the Precursors, as well as the rumored secrets of Amos the Great in the Dark Forest.
It is precisely for this purpose that, after many games, such a superficially neutral existence as the "Expeditionary Force" can justifiably appear in the public eye.
Look back at Francis's group.
A total of fifty-four army felons, all of whom had been sentenced to exile, were taken to an acropolis, where they did not know what it was at the time, and they did not know where their first close encounter with the Glorious Front had taken place.
In fact, the five acropolis are almost identical in terms of structure and personnel arrangement. If there were no numbered and different numbers of troops carved out of the city gates, it would be difficult for veterans who fought to the death on the glorious front to distinguish the pain of several acropolis.
The rigor and composure of the builder can be seen.
The military vehicle passed through the long street, and the faint noise of bustling on the road surprised the newcomers, but then they were relieved. Time is the perfect solvent to dilute everything, and after thousands of years of continuous fighting, danger and alertness have taken root in the hearts of the glorious fronters, just like drinking water and eating, there is no need to deliberately create a tense atmosphere.
The military vehicles drove around to the receiving place of the expeditionary force here. Physical examination, identity verification, interrogation again, verification again, and finally divided the fifty-four people into different squads, without stopping much, directly sent to the outpost where the personnel were missing, and let the commanders of each battalion teach them the rules and discipline on their own, everything seemed mechanical and concise, the same thing had been done I don't know how many times, and the receiving office had already mastered it.
Here, each acropolis is stationed with a division of 10,000 people, and there are battalions below the division of 100 to more than 200 people, and each battalion is under the jurisdiction of a commander, who is directly responsible to the division commander.
The selection of the commander is also very simple, one is to advance to the sixth order and automatically serve as the commander of the first battalion, and the other is to defeat the original commander. Therefore, although most of the battalion commanders are fifth-order superpowers, there are also many ruthless people who can overthrow sixth-order transfer people with fifth-order abilities.
The new arrivals were randomly assigned, and Francis couldn't help but feel a chill when he got the destination he had drawn—the Iron Blood Lion's Tooth Battalion.
The Iron Lion's Tooth Battalion, also known as the Stormtroopers or Striker Battalion, is privately nicknamed the "Death Squad." ”
Each division has a varying number of Iron-Blooded Lion's Tooth Battalions, and establishing outposts is their main job, and they are the first line of work when they find remnants of alien races or beast tides in turmoil. Compared with other teams serving as transport teams or security teams, the Lion's Tooth Battalion has an annual casualty rate of more than 50 percent, and its style is particularly fierce.
Someone has to do some things, and instead of letting the troops have a fluke or resistance mentality, it is better to fix the personnel, which is the original intention of establishing the Lion's Tooth Battalion.
Once assigned, Francis was sent along with the five brothers to a supply depot in the forest, where their commander would greet them.
