Chapter 134: The Bombing Ends
The magic bombardment continues.
But despite the earth-shattering sound of the explosion outside, this bomb shelter did not move.
By understanding.
Vega probably knew the basic situation of the commander of the 5th A87 Brigade and the 2nd Regiment of the 2nd Division, Wolf Eide.
The A87 Brigade and the A91 Brigade, where Vega is located, are both newly built standard brigades.
There were 1,500 ordinary soldiers in the regiment, a squadron of directly professional officers, and several professional officers.
The reason why they came here was because the 2nd Regiment participated in this combat mission to the General Administration of Law Enforcement, but before receiving the order to charge, they waited for the bombing of the magic airship.
Due to the backward position of the 2 regiment, he immediately ordered a retreat.
It was also because of the timely retreat that the 2nd Regiment withdrew from the bombing area with almost zero casualties.
Wolfe's war mind is still quite sober.
He understands that if he wants to survive the bombardment of the war airship, he can only survive by going to the bomb shelter.
So he went to the bomb shelter with his troops.
But as soon as he arrived at the bomb shelter, he found that the bomb shelter had been occupied by the enemy's airborne troops, so they were instantly surrounded by the enemy, and the enemy army also had magicians who could provide fire support at any time, and the 2nd Regiment could only be forced to be taken prisoner.
After becoming a prisoner, Wolf did not expect that the Kingdom Army had violated international conventions by not only executing the entire squadron of professionals, but also killing all the officers of the professions, and taking him alone for interrogation.
Wolf's mouth was tight.
Even after extremely miserable torture, and even lost two fingers, he did not explain how many secret air defense points the Third Army had, and among these secret air defense points, the commander-in-chief Foster may be hidden.
Vega gave Wolf Ed a standard military salute.
His eyes were full of admiration, and being able to persevere under the torture of the enemy required great perseverance in itself: "A91 Brigade Professional Brigade, Captain Vega, salute you. ”
"Captain Vega is serious, it's just a defeated general. Wolf smiled wryly.
Vega hurriedly comforted him, and then instructed the military doctor to bandage and treat Wolf, and when everything was done, Vega and Wolf began to discuss the follow-up plan.
"Captain Vega, you came out of the front, what is the current situation?"
"The Wizard and Profession units have been bombarded with a high level. ”
Vega glanced outside the door and said: "My army originally had 120 professionals, but now there are less than 40 left, and I'm afraid that the other professional brigades are not much better, not to mention the magician troops, which is the most important object of care." ”
"So we don't have any reinforcements?" said Wolf, frowning.
"That's right. ”
Vega affirmed: "Not only are there no reinforcements, but I have only repelled the airborne troops of the Kingdom Army that occupied here, and when they regroup, I am afraid that they will come to retake the bomb shelter, and we can only stay until the end of the bombing." ”
"What does Captain Vega mean?"
Vega said categorically: "I mean, when the bombing is over, go to the general headquarters, I think His Excellency the commander-in-chief will not die under the magic bombardment, and the number of military bomb shelters is all over the barracks, if there is still a large-scale counterattack force in Kareni, it must be the general headquarters." ”
"Your lord may be right. ”
Wolf groaned for a moment, then glanced at the glazed civilians outside the door and said, "But what about these civilians? We are soldiers of the Empire, do we want to abandon the civilians and run away alone? If the Kingdom Army kills them......
"Captain Wolfe!"
Vega slapped Kareni's map: "Now that we can't protect ourselves, staying here after the bombing is over will not only not protect the civilians, but will also cut off the troops, and the enemy didn't hurt the civilians before, right?"
"That being said......"
Wolf hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Okay, I agree with your plan, as soon as the magic bombardment is over, we will immediately move towards the general headquarters. ”
"A smart move. ”
Vega nodded: "Then I won't bother your officer to sort out the troops, and I will let you know before I prepare to leave." ”
Squeak –
Closing the door, Vega let out a sigh.
Taking a huge risk to take the bomb shelter finally paid off a little bit.
As long as there is this regimental force, the chances of breaking through from this central area all the way to the northern sector are more than one percent, and as for whether the situation of the general headquarters still retains a large number of counterattack forces as speculated, this is not a concern at all.
He's just fooling Wolfe.
Because the headquarters is the closest place to the city gate, as long as he can reach the headquarters of the northern district, then even if the headquarters has lost all the force to counterattack, with his shadow mage ability, he can find a chance to escape from Kareni.
Stay in Kareni?
Even if the Third Army did retain the counterattack force, under such a sudden and intensive magic bombardment, I am afraid that there would not be many counterattack troops left, not to mention that even air supremacy had been lost.
This battle has already been lost, and there is no capital to turn defeat into victory.
The enemy's airborne forces will only grow more and more over time, and there is no other possibility of staying in Kareni except for a dead end, and he will have to flee here anyway in order to survive.
If even the safety of life is not guaranteed, what kind of power position can we talk about, and what kind of smooth sailing life can we talk about.
Only by escaping from Kareni, or even from the Northern Front, with the honor he has obtained, no matter which unit he goes to, he can be immediately trained as a high-ranking officer, because the defeat of Kareni and even the Northern Front is not his fault.
And his Imperial Wings is only frozen, but the honor is still on him, plus the city-level surname of Kareni is enough for him to make a comeback in any army.
To this end.
Even if he deceived Wolfe and pulled 1,500 people as cannon fodder, he did not hesitate, and in fact there was only such a way out, to continue to stay in the central area, just to delay the time of death.
The magic bombardment continued until 4 a.m.
As Vega and Wolf walked out of the bomb shelter, the haze over Kareni finally lifted, and through the bleak moonlight, Vega could see the devastation and crackling fire all over the ground, and ...... The smell of corpses in the air.
Kareni is finished.
The former northern city has been burned to the ground in less than 8 hours.
There's no time for that.
Vega said to Wolf: "Without further ado, while the bombing has just ended, the airborne troops of the Kingdom Army have not yet started a sweep, we must rush to the northern district as soon as possible, otherwise when they come to their senses, we will definitely fall into an encirclement." ”
"All forward. ”
Wolf didn't talk nonsense, he shouted behind his back, and the whole army began to march in the direction of the northern district.
Walking through the dilapidated alleys and the potholed streets, the whole team marched fast.
After about an hour and a half of walking, we are almost on the edge of the central area.
As you can see, there was no massive magical bombardment in the vicinity, the basic buildings were well preserved, and they didn't encounter a single enemy along the way.
If all goes well.
At this rate, it will soon be possible to leave the central area and return to the northern district of Kareni.
