Chapter 539: Minor Cities

Great power rivalry.

The one who values love and righteousness is dead!

As long as they can get enough benefits, or let the war go to victory, let alone harm the allies, Vega is crazy but even his own army dares to bury the ruthless and unrighteous with his own hands.

Killing one is a crime, and slaughtering ten thousand is a hero.

Now that the nations only remember Vega's heroic warriors, who will hold Vega accountable for the mistakes he has made so far, human beings, are creatures that only focus on the result, not the process.

Therefore, taking advantage of this opportunity, Vega began to lead his army to attack the secondary strategic cities.

Near the city of Kareny, in the northern hinterland, there are thirteen sub-strategic cities, each of which now has about a division of defenders.

In the original defense system of the Empire.

No matter which direction you attack these sub-cities, even if you capture one of them, Kareni's air and army forces can arrive in a day and deliver a thunderous blow to the army that dares to invade the sub-cities. After all, the empire is almost invincible in conventional warfare, not to mention on their home turf.

This is Kareni's defense system.

This defense system is somewhat similar to the Saint Laurent defense system, which the dynasty is proud of, and the empire borrowed the Saint Laurent defense system of the dynasty to a certain extent when planning the northern cities.

But it's just similar in shape, but it's very different when you actually use it.

Because there is a fatal difference between this Careni defense system and the Saint Laurent defense system -

The location of the core city.

In the Saint Laurent defense system, the city of Saint Laurent is located in the center of the defense system, and is heavily defended by satellite cities, which have a strong army that can support the satellite cities at any time.

But in Kareni's defense system, we can see that the core city of Kareni City is placed on the outermost level, and once Kareni City is attacked fiercely, let alone let him divide his forces to support the secondary city, it would be good not to draw troops from the secondary city to support his core city.

So it looks similar, but it's actually very different.

And now is precisely the worst time for this defense system, with the containment of the kingdom, which means that all the secondary cities can no longer get the support of Kareni City, and the support of Rops City is far away and cannot save the near fire, Vega chooses to attack at this time, and almost no one can stop him.

Soldiers are fast.

In the evening of the same day, a military council was convened in Vega.

"General Rare Ka Rougin. ”

Vega looked at a middle-aged general in the third position on the right: "You are now appointed as the temporary commander-in-chief of the Air Force, responsible for the joint ground and air operations of this war." ”

"Your Highness, please instruct. ”

This is a new lieutenant general, he is one of the officers promoted by Vega from the colonel, and he is 100% loyal to Vega.

Vega nodded and said, "I need you to divide the three air forces into thirteen flying formations, and before the army attacks the secondary cities, first carry out magic bombardment of the enemy's defense line, and the specific details are up to you to operate independently." ”

"Yes, Your Highness, I promise to complete the mission. ”

As soon as Lieutenant General Riel sat down, another lieutenant general was called up by Vega.

He was the commander-in-chief of the First Army, General Balma Swelling, and one of the oldest generals in the army.

Vega did not pause at all, and commanded smoothly: "General Balma, you will be the temporary commander-in-chief of the army in this operation, and I will temporarily transfer the command of the second army to you, and now I ask you to divide the 200,000 soldiers of the two army groups into thirteen troops, and attack thirteen sub-cities head-on with the coordination of the air force." ”

"The subordinate officer received the order. ”

"I believe in the abilities of both of them. ”

Vega nodded, and then said: "But please allow me to say more, in the formation arrangement of the army, I do not recommend using the traditional formation of 2 magicians and 10 professionals in a regiment, I personally suggest that Bal immediately will draw out all the professionals and magicians in all regimental units to form a vanguard force under the condition that the brigade-level high-level armed forces units do not move, and open the breakthrough as quickly as possible after the magical bombardment of the air force." ”

This is the tactical theory of the Kingdom Blitzkrieg.

The kingdom believes that the traditional mode of warfare has seriously buried the mobility of the air force and the high-level armed forces, and the army cannot keep up with the high mobility of the air force to a certain extent, and the air force will often create an offensive fault after bombing, allowing the enemy to ease his mind and organize a defensive formation.

However, at this time, the high-level armed forces units can be completely connected to the maneuver of the air force.

If you let the high-level forces form a force alone, after the magical bombardment of the air force, you will have time to forcibly tear through the enemy's makeshift defensive line, break through the command behind enemy lines while splitting the formation, or simply turn around and cooperate with ordinary troops to encircle and suppress.

The kingdom is a battle-hardened battle.

Of course, this set of tactics of the air force plowing the ground, crushing the front row of high-level armed forces, and the ordinary troops coming from behind is not without natural enemies, and once the enemy takes advantage of the complex terrain of the city to conduct guerrilla warfare, this set of tactics will be completely ineffective, and will even pit itself.

Luckily.

The only one who has thoroughly understood the theory of Viga's guerrilla warfare, accepted the most advanced operational thinking, and applied this guerrilla thinking to actual combat is probably the chief of staff of the Cremans in the city of Kareni.

"Everyone!"

"As you can see!"

After making all the work arrangements, Vega stood up and said loudly: "The world war has officially begun, in which the million-strong army of the Free Alliance broke through the 19 cities in the southwest of the empire under the Sunset Fortress, and the Duchy of Baya was still able to contain the 150,000 elite of the empire in the northwest with a weak momentum, and the United Kingdom attacked Kareni City overnight, and even His Excellency Ocasus picked up the Imperial Elkia City by himself, only we ......"

"It's just us!"

Vega slapped the table and made a sharp voice: "It's just that we haven't won an inch of success since we started the war!" Therefore, in the battle for the secondary cities the day after tomorrow, I would like to ask the two commanders to take down the thirteen cities of the empire overnight in one night to strengthen the military might of our dynasty!"

"The next official will not be dishonored!"

The generals in the command room stood up and shouted, 'Long live the dynasty'.

Seeing that everyone had already realized the war, Vega said: "Please rest assured, two generals, I will personally lead the army to the vicinity of the small Balkan city to establish a defensive line, so as to block the imperial army from the city of Lops, and ensure that no air force and army will be spared to interfere with your operations." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness. ”

The two commanders glanced at each other, understanding that this war was a test of Vega's true strength, and if they made a mistake in even this kind of almost easy war, I am afraid that they would not want to command even one more war in the rest of their lives.

This is extremely cruel for an officer.

Therefore, the two did not dare to underestimate this war, but raised 100% vigilance to fight this battle that must be won.
