Chapter 548: The End of the Rebellion

The two air divisions in the second batch of reinforcements, the 3rd and 4th Divisions of the Iron Collar Air Force, officially arrived at Haksa Fort, the imperial capital of the Roland Empire, on the evening of the tenth day after Modo made the decision to continue to increase troops, under the leadership of the ten black dragons.

The rest of the slow-moving infantry, even if they took the horse-drawn railway, quickly arrived at the Blackstone Fort fortress group, the rest of the long distance, even if it was a rapid march, still took at least a month.

This is still the result of the training of the Steel-Collared Infantry Division, which has long insisted on marching and training, and it will take almost twice as long to arrive when it is replaced by soldiers from any other country, even the elite infantry of the three major military powers of mankind.

That night, the morale of the army under the command of Prince Eugen, who had witnessed the arrival of 20,000 harpies, suddenly dropped to the lowest level; that night there were large-scale deserters, and in the worst cases, there were even whole groups of soldiers, led by junior officers, who fled in whole formations.

Fortunately, the commander-in-chief of Prince Eugen's troops, that is, Marshal Andrew, who betrayed Roland IX, although his character is a little worse, he is still very good at military command.

It was he who dispatched the guards in time, and successively killed a large number of deserters in public, forcibly suppressing this wave of desertion before a larger wave of deserters appeared, but even so, when the number of people was counted the next morning, Prince Eugen's army of 400,000 was still less than 20,000 people......

Marshal Andrei, who had not slept all night, had just about to take a nap after breakfast to recuperate in order to cope with the worse and worse situation that followed, but unfortunately, as soon as he closed his eyes, the horn outside the camp sounded like a life.

When he rushed out of the camp, he was horrified to find that the 60,000 defenders of the city, escorted by the 30,000 Harpy Air Force, had divided into four teams, and instead launched an attack on the side of Prince Eugen, who had the absolute upper hand in the army......

The process of the battle was as simple as everyone on both sides imagined.

At the very beginning, Marshal Andrei overpowered a fist unit in the hands of Prince Eugen, a heavy cavalry division of more than 18,000 people.

The plan was to take advantage of the brief chaos when Roland IX's troops left the city to carry out a perfect surprise attack, killing and wounding a large number of Roland IX's few soldiers, and at the same time raising the morale of his own side, which was almost collapsed, otherwise it would be doomed to fail without fighting at all.

But in just ten minutes or so, a complete steel air division showed the two warring sides what kind of ferocity it must be when they had complete air superiority and plenty of bombs.

This heavy cavalry division formed by Prince Eugen with countless painstaking efforts and gold coins was originally planned to be a powerful force that could easily tear through the sharp knives of the opponent's army formation and destroy the enemy's will to fight, but they were bombarded directly in the process of charging, and finally completely collapsed.

Even those lucky ones who survived, in the eyes of the leading generals on both sides, their dejected appearance at this time is estimated to be caused by this encounter, causing a huge psychological shadow, and in the future, on the battlefield, these people are afraid that they will be abolished.

Then, in the charge of Roland IX's troops, Prince Eugen's army, without even the slightest decent resistance, most of the troops surrendered directly, and a small number of descendants, before Roland IX's ground troops engaged, became remnants of the army, and were finally easily annihilated.

Before lunch arrives at noon,. This great battle of hundreds of thousands of people ended the battle dramatically, and Roland IX's side only suffered more than 1,000 casualties, but won the brilliant result of capturing 340,000 enemy soldiers and destroying more than 30,000 enemies.

It's just that Roland IX feels extremely regretful, even after searching the battlefield and the prisoners back and forth several times, he still can't find the whereabouts of Prince Eugen and Lord Diggs, as well as a few of his henchmen.

It seems that since nightfall last night, Prince Eugen has decisively abandoned his army, with a retinue of thousands of people, and secretly left the camp of the army; this is also the key point that today's battle can be easily ended, without Prince Eugen's sitting, his already demoralized subordinates have little will to fight to the death.

Later, even Roland IX sent a large army to attack the fiefdoms of Prince Eugen, those provinces, and also did not meet any resistance, and easily occupied the entire territory of Prince Eugen's fiefdom.

Except for some of Prince Eugen's cronies in the realm, who had disappeared a few days before the arrival of the army, no one found out that Prince Eugen had returned......

Although Roland IX won the final victory in the battle for the throne, he was faced with the beaten and dilapidated imperial capital Haxaburg, and the millions of civilians who had returned to the imperial capital, and needed to be resettled, which kept him busy for a long time.

But there is more to him than this, just cleaning up the nobles in the empire who have colluded with Prince Eugen is a huge job.

There is also the reconstruction of the troops, which is a huge trouble; the gold coins of the treasury flow like a stream to the steel collar, in exchange for military materials such as muskets and iron ball bombs, and construction materials such as reinforced concrete; so that the fox financial officer of the steel collar is happy every day like a huge festival.

They even submitted a report to the Lord's Office, which stated that, given the Rowland Empire's strong ability to repay its debts, the Lord's House could consider providing a large amount of interest-free or low-interest loans for a period of time in the event of payment difficulties in the Lord's Empire.

As long as they ensure that these loans are used in the materials of the steel collar, then they pat their chests and assure Lord Modo that this year's trade income will definitely be very satisfactory to Lord Modo......

Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, Roland IX formed a new firearms guard regiment, which had three infantry divisions under its command, all muskets and iron ball bombs of the steel collar, and even the armor and other things were also imported from the obvious high quality points of the steel collar.

The first commander of this new Guards Firearms Regiment was the Marquis Leonardo, who had proved his loyalty to Roland IX in the previous battle, and the patriarch of his family was also named Marshal of the Empire, which meant that a new and wealthy family began to rise in the Roland Empire.

After this battle, Roland IX paid a great price, and the harvest was also abundant.

First of all, he no longer had any more threats in the Empire to his opponents, and after a period of time, after sorting out the Imperial army and civil affairs, even if Prince Eugen came out of the corner again, he could no longer pose any real threat to Roland IX.

Secondly, after Prince Eugen and the nobles who had taken refuge in him were raided, the treasury that was about to be emptied was instantly filled again.
