Chapter 4: Arrogance
"Captain Shurga, what is your team doing?"
When he arrived at the Forward Armored Regiment, Ayanami directly approached the regiment commander, Shurga, to inquire about the situation of the troops
"Report to Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, as you can see, we are advancing on the fast march of Landgoliz, the capital of Galia!"
At this time, the armored regiment, which was the vanguard of the sharp knife troops, had just finished cleaning the battlefield and broke through the defense line of the Gallian army, and began to advance to the southeast without stopping.
At this time, the main road to the southeast was full of soldiers riding in cars.
"It's lunch time, why didn't the troops eat lunch?"
Compared to his already arrogant subordinates, Ayanami remained awake, he knew when to do what not to do.
It's lunch time, so you should press lunch, that's what he thinks.
"Report to the brigade commander! I have sent the cooking squads of each squad to prepare three days' marching rations, and have ordered the whole army to march forward quickly, and when to take Landguliz and when to eat a hot meal. ”
"Order the troops to stop for lunch, immediately. ”
But Ayanami didn't care at all what the head of the regiment, who had already entered a delusional state, said
"But ......"
"If you have any doubts about my orders, go to Landgolids in your own chariot, give your troops to your deputy, and become an ordinary tankman. ”
For this kind of boundless commander who is proud after a few victories, Ayanami will never be polite.
"High morale and fighting enthusiasm are good, but officers must always keep their heads clear if you can't. ”
And then there's the intimidating look
"Just take a break. ”
"Report!"
Just at this time, the quartermaster also ran over
"Report to the regimental commander, we have sent three days of marching dry rations according to your request, and the troops can continue to ......"
"The order is canceled, let your people fire and cook immediately, and the vanguard troops will take turns on duty for lunch!"
Seeing that the brigade commander Ayanami was so resolute, Shurga could only obey the order.
"Yes...... But the front-line troops have ......"
"Let them stop and take turns eating lunch!
was reprimanded by the brigade commander in person, and the mood that had improved because of the victory fell back again.
It is true that he is the best soldier in the entire team who has a personal relationship with the brigade commander, but this does not mean that he is willing to work under the brigade commander for the rest of his life.
No one wants to be someone else's subordinate for the rest of their lives. There will always be the idea of wanting to get ahead.
Unlike Prince Ayanami, who was born into a royal family, Shurga was born into a family of military lords, and the title in the family cannot be hereditary, although he is the eldest son, his identity is not a noble child.
It can be regarded as a military family, but it is definitely not a noble family.
In the Empire, there are probably several more traditional ways for men to get ahead:
Find a good wife with a family background.
the thigh of a nobleman or prince on the list;
Achieve excellent military exploits;
For the second, he hugged Ayanami's thighs tightly since he was a child, and it was the way to get promotion and promotion from him, and as he expected, under the hands of Ayanami, who was outstanding in status, status and ability, he was a young man from a non-aristocratic background, and actually squeezed out countless noble-born nobles and became the head of the first independent mechanized chariot regiment in the history of this empire.
Our Lady is above! This is a chariot regiment! Chariot troops have been the domain of the nobility since their existence.
The position of captain of the chariot brigade, which replaced the noble position of the cavalry, was always held by the nobility.
And the commanders of such units of the mechanized infantry wing were invariably the domain of the nobility.
And he succeeded, taking the first step of his own success.
"According to the instructions of the brigade commander, let the soldiers on the front stop to eat, and after dinner, we will move forward. ”
After explaining the task, Sherga turned to his friend and looked friendly and understanding
"Brigade commander, although you are always very cautious, you don't need to be so cautious, do you? Our troops have not encountered a single decent combat unit since they entered Galia. The 4th Division, which was called the 'Devil's Gallia Regular Army' and the 'Grim Reaper's Tessa Testarosa Damon', did not even see a shadow. Seeing that we were about to hit their capital, they didn't show up. ”
The reason why Shurga marched to Landgolitz so desperately was for nothing else, but for his own military exploits.
With military merits, the one who captured the capital of the enemy country, as the commander of the troops, has this kind of military merit, and his title and nobility status are firmly established.
This is the fundamental reason why he has always advocated rapid progress.
"I think eighty percent of those rumors are arranged by the Fourth Division, the uninjured division, in order to shirk responsibility~"
For the news of the Fourth Division of the Empire, he knew about it from Ayanami. How can the words of the defeated general be believed to shirk responsibility? So he thinks that this kind of thing does not need to be taken too seriously.
“............”
This time, Ayanami did not answer immediately, to be honest, he had been worried and guarded against the miraculous 'Landobasa Legion' that was blown by the propaganda newspaper of the Fourth Division, "Osacask News".
By the way, since the defeat of the 4th Osaka Division, in order to exonerate their own people, the newspapers controlled by the Ossaka Syndicate have consciously or unintentionally exaggerated the combat effectiveness of the Gallian Army, and the purpose is naturally to regain some face for their lovely soldiers.
Since the Battle of Lando Basa, the Empire has gained a new understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Gallian Army.
Although the country is small, the army is very combative. ’
This is the conclusion reached by the military department under the pressure of the syndicate by asking and consulting various brick family beasts.
As a result, Galia entered the sight of the 1st Independent Mixed Brigade of the Experimental Force, which became the first testing ground for their newly formed unit.
What makes Ayanami care about this is nothing else, but the commander and troops of Lando Barça, who made the emperor lose face in small Galia.
"Report to the regimental commander, brigade commander, the troops have stopped, but the line of defense of the Gallia Army has been found directly ahead. ”
The adjutant brought a report from the front
"Do you still need to keep the troops eating?"
For a whole month and a half, Ayanami has been using troops to guard against this mysterious unit that ate the entire division of the emperor ** in one go, and hit Galia hard, ignoring the hints and advice of the conservatives and the emperor **, he resolutely served as the vanguard of the entire Galia expeditionary force and fought with his life. In order to get Gallia to send out the Lando Barça legion and the devil commander quickly.
But for a whole month, he and his troops tensed their nerves, and took every enemy they encountered in front of them for the mysterious Lando Barça army, but the results were disappointing.
"What is the other party?"
The 1st Independent Mixed Brigade was originally the prototype of a reduced version of the armored division that the empire had set up to experiment with this high concentration of armored forces. A suitable enemy and trial opponent are needed.
Such opponents and experiments should be carried out on a battlefield that is relatively easy for the emperor to control, so the place where the big waves of the Federation are washed is obviously out of place.
In the battle of hundreds of thousands of troops, the role of this rudimentary unit is too small and limited, and there are too many variables on the enemy's side, so it is natural that Gallia has become a testing ground for this unit.
Because there is a small opponent who can put the empire in trouble.
Lean but not too powerful, nor like a mob that can be crushed in one blow.
That won't be an experiment.
The Battle of Lando Barça showed the Empire the strength of Galia and believed that they were worthy of being the litmus test for this new force.
So Ayanami's troops came, like a little ** who was in love for the first time, he had to come to find his lover, but ...... The result of a month's wait was that the lover heard nothing......
All I came across were disgusting waste snacks that couldn't be more disgusting.
The army is poorly organized, undertrained, and equipped with problems, and its command is in a mess.
"According to the reconnaissance, in front of us were two battalions of the regular army of Galia, which appeared to be a blocking force trying to stop us from advancing towards Landgulliz. ”
The regular army, the regular army again, the garbage troops that made Ayanami so disgusted that they wanted to vomit.
Whenever I think of those regular army brigades that are incredibly chaotic after a few hits, whenever I think of those regular army soldiers who shoot indiscriminately when they see the enemy, and whenever I think of those who are frightened and urinate after being captured, you can't kill my fat pig-like officers and idiot generals with big bellies. A frown appeared on Ayanami's grim face that had not changed for ten thousand years.
It's disgusting, and it's hard to form a conceptual army to experiment with the opponent but it's a waste.
There is no point in such a battle at all, and it can be easily defeated against such an opponent, whether it is a new army or an old army, and the significance of innovation cannot be seen at all.
"The order remains the same, let the troops take turns to eat, and let the troops on duty eliminate this gang of Gallia pigs at the front. ”
As he spoke, he looked at his watch and felt that it was almost time for him to eat.
"Let the cooking squad also bring me and the regimental commander a lunch, the same as our wartime standards, one dish and one soup. ”
It doesn't take much effort to deal with 2,000 pigs.
Half an hour is enough for a third of the troops on duty.
Ayanami already had a sufficient understanding of his own troops and the enemy's regular army, and he trusted his troops when he had mastered the situation between friend and foe.
Knowing that his troops could run away and destroy all the pigheads in front of him in half an hour.
If you want to defeat the 1st Armored Mechanized Mixed Brigade composed of all elite veterans and elite new officers of the Empire, it is absolutely impossible to rely on the regular army, which is inferior to pigs.
No way!
"1st Brigade! Attack!"
