Chapter 519: The Marshal's Determination

Overthrowing the rule of the royal government over the lower districts of Westdum through the power of the Brotherhood and the mutated people is undoubtedly a matter of great impact on the entire kingdom's civil war.

For the Royal Government, this is nothing less than a salary from the bottom of the kettle.

At this moment, the connection between the Royal Government and the Eastern Border Army Group was completely severed. After the lower districts fall into the hands of the Brotherhood, the government forces in the east will no longer have any reinforcements or material support.

As soon as the news reached the eastern border, the government army was immediately moved.

"Your Excellency Marshal, the twenty-one officers of all ranks who plotted the rebellion have all been shot."

"Good work." Marshal Cavon waved his hand, looked at the adjutant in front of him who had lost his left hand, and couldn't help but sigh.

But in fact, Marshal Kavon himself was not much better. Although he is not missing an arm or leg, his condition is not optimistic, which is the trace left on him by the high-intensity fighting in the past period of time.

It's been a month since the Great Revolution broke out in the lower Sections of Westom and the gates were closed.

When Marshal Kavon learned of the upheaval in Westdom, he immediately decided to block the news.

However, with an army of more than 200,000 people, such a large number of people, and such a big matter, the news channels are also very complicated.

What's more, their opponent, the army on the Jinyang Pass side, will not let go of this opportunity that can strongly hit the morale of the army, and all kinds of news are transmitted back through various ways.

So, within three days, the whole army knew about the news that the lower sector of Wesdum had changed hands and that there would be no supplies until control of the lower sector was regained.

200,000 troops, from ammunition supply, to food needs, to the medicine needed for the treatment of the wounded...... All of this has become the most tangled and bad thing for Cavon and his staff team.

Fortunately, the army is moving, and it carries a lot of various supply resources, so it will not run out of ammunition and food immediately.

According to the statistics of the logistical staff officers, if the materials of the whole group army are to be distributed in a centralized manner, they can last for up to three months.

But this is an estimate of distribution in strict accordance with the rationing system, which, in fact, in a state of war, cannot be seen as such.

For example, when a war starts, the consumption of weapons and ammunition will suddenly increase dramatically. Besides, as long as there is a war, the soldiers must not be left without food. The result of eating openly is the consumption of a large amount of food and materials.

Now, a month has passed since the capture of the gates of Vestum, and the situation of Army Group Eastern has become very bad. The supply of all kinds of ordnance and materials is close to the red line, but the battle situation has not made much progress.

Kavon was a veteran of the army and had a lot of experience in warfare. He didn't know that the Eastern Frontier Army he led had reached a state where it could not be delayed.

In the past month, he has not thought of some other ways. For example, find some settlements nearby and search for resources. As for some towns and villages with grain factories, they will occupy them, exercise military control, and directly produce grain on the spot to supplement the use of the whole army.

However, opposite them, Duke Jiang Yunliang, who was pro-Zheng, was also old and strong. His Royal Highness the Duke, in the previous wars, adopted some strategies to clear the wilderness, and on the way to retreat from the 'Restoration Front', he planned to destroy many grain factories on the spot.

Although it was just a precautionary measure, it was not cleaned up too cleanly, but now, it has also played a good role.

Moreover, of course, the Jinyang Pass side also learned the news that the gate was captured. Jiang Yunliang also realized that the winner of the two sides must be in logistics supply.

Therefore, he issued a very resolute order, commanding the armies at all levels, on the basis of the existing basic plates, to defend to the death in all cities and towns, to resolutely fight against the enemy, and to fight as closely as possible, so that on the one hand, the opponent's war readiness resources can be greatly consumed, and on the other hand, the means of production will not fall into the hands of the other side.

And when it really comes to holding on, it is necessary to destroy all the means of production on the spot, leaving no trace of the opponent's means of obtaining supplies.

At the same time, some strongholds that had fallen into the hands of the Eastern Army Group were also sent to carry out strike strikes. Not occupation, only destruction. For this reason, Duke Jiang Yunliang did not even hesitate to dispatch the elemental powerhouses under his command with high frequency.

These measures dealt a very serious blow to the Eastern Border Army.

In particular, a special operations detachment composed of elite teams, led by the 'Condor' Milo himself, knocked out a storage point for war readiness materials in the Eastern Territory Group Army.

That place, already hidden very deep, was still detected. The protection situation is also very good, there are elite troops stationed, and the orientation equipment is also quite good, and at the first time it is attacked, it asks for help, and there are several strong elements to support the past.

However, it still failed to stop the success of Jinyang Pass.

The team led by Milo was not able to retreat in its entirety. Of the more than 500 fighters who infiltrated the battle, only a little more than 100 people came back alive in the end, and two of the elemental powerhouses were also killed in the battle. However, the Eastern Border Group Army also paid two elements of power, one of which was a kingdom general, and the other was the truth element of the 'Black-hearted Sword Demon' Wu Ruiwen.

And it is worth mentioning that the two elements lost by the Eastern Army were all slaughtered by Milo.

In addition, the loss of armaments and materials from the complete destruction of this warehouse was extremely high. Originally, Marshal Cavon planned a major counteroffensive, which was the storage base for war supplies, but it was destroyed before the battle plan could really be implemented. This led directly to the bankruptcy of a major counteroffensive plan.

In mid-October, the Fenglinbao Army from the north was also in position, forming a substantial two-sided attack on the Eastern Border Army with the Jinyang Pass. This has further led to the strengthening of the two sides. First of all, in terms of troops, Jinyang Pass is also approaching 200,000 people, and the most important thing is that in terms of the number of strong elements, it has directly reached the level of more than 20 people.

The morale of the Eastern Army Group is getting lower and lower as it fights, and gradually some deserters have begun to appear. A week earlier, there had been a defection or outright surrender of some troops.

These are very deadly situations.

In the last week, Marshal Cavon has carried out a rapid anti-rebellion (anti-insurgent) operation within the army, and so far more than 50 officers of all ranks have been arrested, all of them in quick trials and quick executions.

However, Kavon himself knows that although this can temporarily suppress some internal problems in the army, it cannot solve the fundamental problems.

After squandering off the adjutant who had come to report with money, Marshal Calvon locked himself in the operational conference room of the command headquarters for a full three hours before making the final decision.

This is the time when we have to make a desperate bet, and if we don't find a way to make a breakthrough, this war will not have to be fought.
