Chapter 260: New Beginnings: Hot Pursuit
One day after the White Wolf's speech, a battle plan was presented to the Emirate's top officers, which set out the strategic plan for the next campaign, their respective operational objectives, and the line of attack.
Immediately afterward, these officers planned in detail the tasks that each of their units should accomplish according to the guidance of this battle plan, and conveyed them to the next level of officers.
In this way, after layers of communication, the White Wolf's battle plan finally reached the ears of each soldier, and each of them knew their purpose and what strategic goals they were going to achieve.
At the level of specific tactical execution, people at each level only know what they should know, but at the strategic level, everyone in the army knows the purpose of this war, which is to completely eliminate the gray fog invaders, so that the white wolf twists the army into a rope through technical means, many units, and each individual moves in one direction, and at the same time carries out a coordinated division of labor, such a force is difficult for the enemy to stop.
At the same time that these battle plans were conveyed from top to bottom, the concept of why the army was fighting that the White Wolf had established in his previous speech also spread rapidly among the army, and among them, the priests of the Rune Sect also played a considerable catalytic role, and these ideas caused quite a stir in the army, and for the first time, ordinary soldiers realized that they were carrying out a great cause, and after a heated debate, this concept had a certain impact in the army.
The good thing is that the soldiers know that they are doing a just cause, and their families are behind them, so their morale is greatly boosted, and the bad effect is that the authority of the white wolf has decreased, and the army is no longer fighting for the white wolf, and the trend of evolving towards the white wolf's private army has also stopped, and if he wants to mobilize this army in the future, he must come up with a reasonable reason.
Of course, this disadvantage is for the unrestrained expansion of power of the White Wolf himself, but it is good for the overall interests of the Emirate, and even the long-term interests of the White Wolf himself.
During this month, the enemy did not honestly cooperate with the emirate's preparations, and the skirmishes on the border continued and never stopped, and there was even a medium-scale battle, the enemy tried to attack the goblin camp at night, trying to break through a concrete wall, but because of the warning in advance with the induction rune, the defending troops quickly reacted, turning the enemy's long-planned surprise attack into a bloody stalemate.
While the border guards were fighting bloodily, the white wolf was slowly accumulating strength in the dark, ready to deliver a severe blow to the enemy, and in the previous battle, he had completed the experiment of using the wind element to blow away the gray mist.
Facts proved his conjecture, these gray fog invaders really can't leave the gray fog, when they sense a strong wind, they will stop the offensive and start to retreat, like those who don't retreat in time, once they get out of the gray fog package, they will fall directly to the ground and lose their ability to fight, it can be seen that these gray fog invaders are indeed driven by the gray fog, and the white wolf believes that he has found a killer weapon to deal with the enemy.
After the success of the experiment, the white wolf told the black wolf and other relevant responsible persons the news, and then handed over all the government affairs to Momiji, and then went to find a few foxes working in the rune laboratory, and drew runes with them for a month, creating dozens of large blowers, which can be used to blow away the gray mist, at the beginning of the battle, this machine will be put into the battlefield and work until it is scrapped.
Under the persuasion of Momiji, the white wolf who originally planned to go to the front line to command had to set up the headquarters on the second line, which can be regarded as a battle that determines the future fate of the emirate, and the white wolf must personally participate, if the plan can be successful, in a long time, the emirate will no longer encounter any threat, and can engage in production and construction with peace of mind, if it can't be done, the consequence is that it will be mired in the quagmire of war, and it will miss this golden opportunity period for development.
Finally, the time of a month has come, the rations for the long battle, and the materials necessary for the operation have been transported in place, the blowers are in place, the army has also arrived on its own offensive line, the personnel at all levels have also clarified their tasks, and everything is waiting for the predetermined moment to come.
All the officers, their eyes widened, staring nervously at the top of their heads, and at the fluorescent moss on the walls.
At the moment when the brightness of the fluorescent moss turned from dark to bright, the word "go" sounded at the same time in dozens of different locations in the underground world, accompanied by the humming sound of the rune circle on the blower when it was running, and the sound of stepping on the ground when the army marched and the footsteps fell at the same time, the vibrations generated by these sounds reverberated in the crooked underground world, like a giant beast stretching for several kilometers advancing, shaking people's scalps.
In order to facilitate the march of the army, the concrete wall had been bombarded to pieces by the artillery an hour earlier, and the iron gate had been dismantled and transported away in advance, and the earth had been cleared.
According to previous exploration, there are currently a total of twenty-four roads from the emirate to the enemy-occupied area, and the army is divided into twenty-four units, marching in the direction of the enemy, the configuration of these armies is like this, at the front of the team, is responsible for maintaining the line, in the middle and front of the team is the newly built blower and its operator, on both sides of the blower are the long-range output artillery, these machines that can emit high-intensity fireballs can instantly burn the enemy's body, including internal organs and brains.
It is worth noting that the White Wolf equipped each soldier in these vanguard units with a Groundwalking Dragon, so their speed was several times faster than that of ordinary troops, making them ideal for storming the line and chasing down fleeing enemies.
Soon, the fastest troops came into contact with the enemy, and because of the presence of the blower, the troops in front were surprised to find that the enemy, who had always been mindless and would only rush forward, had miraculously begun to break and flee this time.
Seeing the fleeing enemy, the cruel nature flowing in the goblin's blood instantly prevailed, and many people couldn't suppress their excitement, wanting to rush forward, immediately expand the results of the battle, and ruthlessly kill this group of people who have been in trouble for a long time.
"Hold the front steady! Advance calmly! Those who leave the ranks without authorization will be court-martialed!"
The officers at the grass-roots level were all from the soldiers, they were keenly aware of the restless mood of the soldiers, and immediately launched a response, hearing that there was a possibility of being dealt with by military law, these soldiers no longer dared to act rashly, maintaining the original speed, the team did not appear disjointed, and the whole front was advancing in a steady and orderly manner.
Almost all goblin soldiers are afraid to hear the word military law, because this military law is formulated and implemented by the black wolf himself, after summarizing the reasons for each battle defeat, gradually, these rules and regulations become more and more complicated, and more and more strict, once someone is found to have violated these military laws, then the consequences must be extremely miserable.
The black wolf substituted the experience of the white wolf in formulating the Inquisition into the management of the army, and also set up a supervision agency in the army, which was responsible for arresting and punishing those who violated military law within the army, most of these punishments were inflicted on the violators, such as whipping, sticks, etc., the kind of bloody scene of being beaten, combined with the screams of the tortured, the performance effect was quite good, at least it scared most of the goblins.
In addition to whipping and sticking, there are more severe punishments, such as beheading or hanging, these punishments are generally aimed at those soldiers who escape, as well as those who leak military information, but so far, because there are indeed more than a dozen soldiers who have escaped, but there is no leak to report, this is because the goblins simply cannot communicate peacefully and effectively with the gray fog invaders, once they meet, they will start fighting, even if they want to sell information, there is no way to betray.
Twenty-four fronts advanced at the same time, such a formation was something the enemy had never seen before, it was obvious that the enemy was completely ignorant of the recent movements of the white wolf, coupled with the effect of the blower, the enemy on every road was routed, and they did not think about regrouping their troops, but the speed of the emirate's army was so fast that these troops were routed again before they could be assembled, and fled deeper ground.
At this time, some soldiers were full of doubts, although they had not received the education of the school, and their heads were not bright, but they still had doubts, if they kept chasing and the enemy kept retreating, then they could only complete the expulsion of the enemy, and it would never be possible to destroy all the enemies, how did the top brass plan it?
Although their hearts are full of questions, they don't dare to ask, they still have to rush forward, in the army, it is strictly forbidden to talk to each other, if this ban is lifted, while talking and fighting, it is easy to distract energy, lead to missing orders, and even shake the morale of the army.
Behind this military law alone, there are dozens of goblin lives, which is why the black wolf pays so much attention to order and discipline, the training is stricter in peacetime, and there will be fewer deaths on the battlefield, after all, if you want to train a qualified soldier, it still costs a lot of money, and the black wolf doesn't want them to lose in vain, at least not let the blood of their predecessors be shed in vain.
