Chapter 417: The Demise of the Western Alliance!

"Damn, these people can really escape!"

Under the Alps, Qi Yuan, who has always had a very good temper, couldn't help but scold his mother when he saw this environment.

Today, half a year has passed since the battle of Wangxiong Mountain.

Just yesterday, the New Year of Daming officially passed and entered the 5th year of Yongxing.

In the past six months, without the containment of the main forces of the West, the Ming Army has been advancing all the way.

The two fronts on the eastern front were divided into two parts, and Zhu Gao led the Beiju Luzhou Front army all the way south from Vienna to completely settle the Ottoman Empire without a king.

Jiang Huai led the Dongsheng Shenzhou Front to advance to the northwest, encountering cities and villages along the way, and then marching north with the cooperation of the navy to launch an attack to the more remote north.

The Southern Ganbu Continental Front, which landed from Bruges, first attacked in the northwest direction, taking France first, and then, with the cooperation of the Marines, attacked Spain on both sides.

Having solved the countries near the coast, the armies of the two fronts, in coordination with each other, began to advance to the middle.

On the side of the Western Alliance, the Ming Army was forced to jump left and right.

From jumping a few times at the beginning, to almost fleeing from the wind.

The two sides chased and killed all the way, and occupied the land all the way.

In the end, the Ming Dynasty directly forced the forces of the entire Western Alliance to this three-regardless region, that is, the Switzerland of later generations.

The environment here in Switzerland is very complex, with the exception of the Alps, most of the interior is semi-plateau.

It can be said that in the ancient environment, it was a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

As the last base of resistance of the Western Alliance, the Western Alliance has built this place almost like an iron bucket.

"It's a bit hard to fight!"

The chief of staff of the Southern Ganbu Continent observed the situation on the other side in the telescope, and a sad look flashed in his eyes.

The environment here is too complicated, and if the Ming Dynasty launches an attack, he will have to face the enemy from the bottom up.

In addition, the Western Alliance was also beaten by the Ming Dynasty, and when stationing fortifications, not only the ground defense was taken into account, but even the heavenly defense was taken into account.

Although they don't have a way to attack the sky, they can still dodge them.

In order to avoid the bombardment of the Ming Dynasty and the desperate shelling, they built almost all of their defensive positions in the mountains.

In this way, the main offensive force of the Ming Dynasty was weakened by half.

"It's just this trembling, no matter how hard it is, you have to fight."

Qi Yuan retracted his binoculars and turned to the headquarters.

"Report, Camp Agni reports to you."

No sooner had the two returned to the headquarters than an officer wearing a flame badge on his chest raised his hand to salute them.

Qi Yuan returned the salute and asked suspiciously: "I don't have your battalion under me, you are newly sent." ”

The officer stood up and replied in a loud voice.

"Report to Qi Shuai, we are the newly established army of the imperial court, and the emperor learned that you were going to attack the enemy's fortress, so he sent an airship to send us over to assist you in the battle."

Qi Yuan nodded, and he didn't care too much about it.

What he can't do with more than 100,000 people, he doesn't think a small battalion can do it.

Qi Yuan didn't care, but the chief of staff was interested.

In his mind, the emperor sent this army over at this time, and it was definitely not as simple as sending them a few reinforcements.

"You call it the Agni Battalion, is the equipment you use related to fire?"

"Yes, Chief of Staff, we are equipped with the latest weapon of the Ming Dynasty, the flamethrower."

"Our battalion's flamethrowers can spew fire for up to 10 meters, which can cause great damage to the enemy behind the fort and bunker, and can also greatly damage the enemy's morale and morale."

"Oh, that's what you say!"

Qi Yuan, who was drinking tea with a teacup, became interested, and walked directly to the door with the teacup.

"Let's go, let's take a look!"

Soon the group came to a camp.

There were not many soldiers stationed here, only about a hundred.

But they did not wear long spears, but like officers, each of them was armed with a short spear.

When the three arrived, the soldiers were fiddling with some oil drums, or fiddling with some bottles and cans.

"Stand upright!"

The commander of the Agni Battalion shouted, and the soldiers, who were doing their own business, immediately stood in place under the conditioned reflex.

"Take a break!"

Qi Yuan raised his hand and saluted the soldiers, walked over to a soldier, looked at the big bottle fiddled next to him, and asked the commander of the Agni Battalion who followed next to him.

"This is the weapon you use?"

"Yes, Qi Shuai."

The Agni Battalion Commander stretched out his hand and lifted the bottles and cans, and began to explain: "This is filled with fire oil and high-pressure air, as long as we press the switch here, the fire oil will be sprayed out under the high-pressure blowing, and then ignited by the flame of the muzzle to achieve the purpose of killing and injuring the enemy." ”

"And this thing is very attached, once it is touched, it can't be extinguished, and the shelf can only be burned alive."

"Very good, very good."

Hearing the introduction of the Agni Battalion Commander, Qi Yuan nodded with satisfaction.

Then he said to the guards beside him, "Prepare a bunker." ”

Soon a simple bunker was made.

Qi Yuan took his officers and stood in the distance holding a telescope to watch.

Under the gaze of a group of people, a soldier with an oil tank on his back, somewhat clumsy and doing various tactical moves, approached the pillbox.

When the distance between the two sides was 20 meters, the soldier directly lay down, fiddled casually, and pulled the trigger at the mouth of the pillbox.

"Whew!"

As soon as the fire dragon rushed out, it flew straight for more than 20 meters and crashed into the pillbox.

In an instant, black smoke billowed from the bunker, and the flames were thick.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

Seeing the effect from the telescope, Qi Yuan smiled and applauded, and his eyes flashed with an inexplicable light.

At midnight, under the snow-covered Alps.

"Up!"

With a low-voiced order, the thousand soldiers who formed 10 squads, wearing white cloaks, slowly touched the defensive positions of the Western Alliance soldiers.

In a terrain like this, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is rare to use large legions to fight, and often this squad mode may bring greater effects.

Each squad has a total of 100 people, and all of them are equipped with uniform submachine guns, except for a few marksmen.

They formed a tactical formation, supported a few soldiers in the middle with large cans on their backs, and slowly touched the position in the distance.

They were cautious along the way, for fear of making a movement and attracting the attention of the enemy.

At the same time, the veterans in the team are also vigilant against any place around where people can be hidden, to prevent the enemy from arranging secret sentinels.

If something is wrong, the whole team will stop in an instant, and then a few veterans will go up and deal with the hidden outposts.

Walking and stopping all the way, it was almost dawn and they finally arrived, a hundred meters away from the defensive positions of the Western Alliance.

The team stopped, and everyone was panting slightly, adjusting their stamina.

The captain, who was lying at the front, looked at the luminous watch in his hand, made sure that he had reached the appointed time, and stretched out his hand to swing it back.

Receiving the captain's order, several soldiers slowly climbed forward.

The rest of the soldiers raised their vigilance to the apex, their eyes scanning the surrounding situation like falcons.

"Goo-goo..."

A few minutes later, a burst of bird calls rang out.

The vigilant captain breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand back, and the first one climbed over.

Soon a group of people climbed into the trenches of the Western Alliance.

In the trenches, in addition to the few people who had just come in, there were several corpses on the ground.

The topographical map had always been in the captain's mind, and he only made a simple distinction to determine his location.

"Mule, you take half of the people to that side, I'll take the rest of the people to this side, remember not to shoot if you can, and once you shoot, you have to attack with all your might."

The mule, which had been arranged by the captain, made a received gesture, waved at some of the soldiers, made a gesture to follow me, and led half of the men to the other side of the trench.

And the captain, on his side, also took the rest of the men and headed for the trench in front of him.

Along the way, they were all cautious, but this is the enemy's hinterland after all, and no matter how careful they are, it is useless.

When they dealt with a couple of sentries and crossed a bend, a gunshot suddenly rang out.

A soldier who led the way in front of him fell down without even snorting.

"Bang..."

The sharpshooter beside the captain, at the moment when the gun rang out, locked on to the enemy as fast as possible and pulled the trigger.

"Grass!"

The captain cursed and shook off the obstructive white cloak.

"It's exposed, attack directly!"

Under the captain's order, the team members threw off their cloaks one after another, divided into several teams, and moved forward quickly.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack..."

"Da Da Da ......"

"Boom, boom, boom......"

As soon as the mournful screams rang out, they were covered by a dense burst of gunfire and explosions.

The tranquil Alps are instantly shrouded in blood death, and the occasional fire dragon.

"Qi Shuai!"

Hearing the battle from the top of the mountain, in the Daming headquarters under the mountain, the officers all looked at Qi Yuan, who was holding a teacup and closing his eyes.

"Wait!"

Knowing that everyone was attacking, Qi Yuan spit out a word lightly.

The battle was fierce and did not stop from the moment it began.

This hit hit until dawn.

When the sun rose in the east and shone into the headquarters through the window, Qi Yuan opened his eyes violently and looked in the direction of the battle.

"Tsk!"

A green flare flew into the sky.

This is an agreement between the parties.

Green means that the position has been taken, red means that the attack is hopeless, and of course, there is another kind of notice, that is, there is no gunfire on the hill.

"Let's go!"

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Qi Yuan took a sip of the already cold tea and gave the order to start.

"Boom boom boom..."

Dense artillery smashed into a part of the area.

The thick snow on the mountain caused an avalanche under the impact of the artillery, and it rumbled down.

The avalanche came and went as fast as it came, and when everything had subsided, the trumpet of the attack sounded.

"Kill!"

A Ming soldier in winter clothes, shouting and holding a rifle, stretched out one foot in front of the snow, and launched an attack on the top of the mountain.

Yongxing 5 years, the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.

After two days of fierce fighting, the Southern Ganbu Continental Front completely took the northwest defense line of the Western Alliance.

At the same time, the Beiju Luzhou Front Army in the east also took the position on the other side.

The armies of the two fronts did not make any agreement and pressed inward as quickly as possible.

Both sides are fighting for this last game to break the enemy.

In order to win this glory, the commanders of both fronts gave the order to die, and at the same time gave the highest reward.

Which legion completed this task first, from the legion commander down to the ordinary soldier, was promoted one level on the spot.

The first meritorious officer, the front army will ask the court for the title for him.

All soldiers knew in their hearts that the war was coming to an end.

It will be difficult to become a nobleman in the future, and this is their last chance to fight.

Without the urging of the commanders, the soldiers almost all gritted their teeth and rushed forward desperately.

After several days of fighting, on the fifteenth day of the first month of the Ming Dynasty, the two sides gathered in Geneva.

The countries of the Western Alliance, which once governed the entire West, have also cowered into this small city.

"Old Qi, give my brother a face, how about giving me this opportunity."

"You also know that my brother has a special identity, and after this battle, I will resign, and I will not have the opportunity to lead troops to fight in the future."

"And as an important general of the imperial court, you are still young now, and you will have opportunities in the future."

Outside Geneva, the armies of the two fronts joined forces.

In a certain observation post, Zhu Gaosui put his arm around Qi Yuan's shoulder, looking pitiful, hoping that the other party would give him this opportunity.

"His Royal Highness King Zhao, what you said, our Ming Dynasty has unified the world, where do you let me go to war."

"I'll tell you the truth, after so many years of fighting, I'm also tired, and I'm thinking about going to the Naval Academy to retire after this war."

"So, this is also my last chance to go to war, I'm very sorry, I can't let this opportunity go."

Give up this opportunity, what a joke.

His brothers were all waiting with their eyes open, if he gave up this opportunity, he would not be blamed to death by his brothers.

Zhu Gao was speechless.

This guy doesn't seem to be 40 years old, and he's still retired, so in order not to let himself go, he even said such shameless words.

"If you have it, then since that's the case, then we will each have our own abilities."

Seeing that the other party refused to let go, Zhu Gaosui didn't bother to speak, waved his hand, turned around and walked out.

Qi Yuan put down the binoculars, glanced back at the distant back, shrugged his shoulders, and also walked towards his own front army.

At noon on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

With the order to attack from the imperial side, the two fronts launched a full-scale attack on Geneva.

As for persuasion to surrender, well, neither front army thought about it.

The battle has come to this, and the other party is still resisting stubbornly, obviously trying to resist desperately.

So those things that we know will not get results, everyone is too lazy to do them.

The shelling lasted half an hour.

Under such a wild bombardment, the few buildings in Geneva were all in ruins.

"Twitter..."

As three red flares rose into the air, the soldiers, who had been impatient for a long time, let out an excited cry and launched an attack on the ruins.

However, the imaginary resistance did not come.

When they stepped into the city, they were greeted not only by the ruins, but also by countless Western Alliance soldiers who stood up tremblingly and raised their hands.
