Chapter 21: Mutations

readx;? That's it, the expeditionary force of the Visigothic Republic continues to grit its teeth and insist, and the toughness of these guys, even William can't help but sigh when he sees it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

Powerful, even very powerful.

At the beginning, William only thought that these guys were just a short period of blood and bravery, and after being encouraged by the opposing commander, he was excited to find the north. As long as you give the other side continuous, constant, continuous and effective blows, you can make those guys frustrated, their morale quickly drops, and then they all collapse.

However, at this stage of the war, William finally realized that he was wrong.

On the other hand, the resilience of the expeditionary force of the Visigothic Republic far exceeded his thoughts.

In front of the defense line of the Russian Gothic Empire Expeditionary Force, the corpses of the opposing soldiers had been laid on the ground, and thousands of soldiers died of almost no value.

Even the hardest-minded veterans of the Empire would feel terrible and terrified when they saw this scene. However, the expeditionary forces of the Republic on the other side were still optimistic, still excited, still happy, still as if they were not afraid of death, desperately, like moths to a fire, launching round after round of charges towards the defense line of the expeditionary force of the Russian Gothic Empire.

"If this continues, if the other side is really an idiot in command, maybe these soldiers may really die in front of our defense line......" William couldn't help but think. William couldn't help but think about it-

What kind of price does it take for an army like this to defeat him?

Or to put it another way, what kind of price will it cost a country like this to defeat him.

How many people died in William's anti-French coalition in his previous life to defeat revolutionary France? If things really came to that point, what should he do?

"In any case, the Bretons are isolated overseas, and now, the mainland faction of the Bretons has been dealt a heavy blow, if this continues, then these guys may come up with such a strange policy as glorious isolation because of the island mentality. If that's really the case, then the Russian Gothic Empire will have to face such a monster opponent alone. ”

William couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

How many such Visigoths would have to be killed in order to win this war?

One million, two million, three million, five million?

How many soldiers would the Russian Gothic Empire need to die and how much would it cost to kill so many Visigoths?

As soon as he thought of this, William felt a very headache, a terrible headache.

If that's really the case, then there is still no possibility of realizing one's great dream of conquering the world and the great goal.

Although the vitality of the current Briton people has been greatly damaged, the Briton Islands, as the mainland, have not been harmed in any way. In this case, if the people of Briton really watch the play, then with the strength of the Briton Islands, they can still sit firmly in the Diaoyutai.

If it reached that point, then the Russian Gothic Empire would have to fight with the terrible revolutionary Visigoths, and the two sides would have to fight hard. Millions of people and untold wealth will be lost.

And in the end, even if William can defeat this opponent, the energy and money spent will exhaust the great empire.

At that time, the people of Briton who nested in the Briton Islands can take advantage of the situation and go down the mountain to pick peaches lightly.

If that's really the case, then ......

"It's really bad. Am I really unable to unify the whole Gothic world?" thought to William - even though he had become such a great man and created such a great feat, William still did not forget the original goal. Integrate, unify the entire Gothic world, and build a true Gothic empire.

But......

"No, there must be a chance, there must be a chance!" William said to himself, "In any case, it is enough to let the Britons still have a great deal of interest in their continental empire - in fact, they still have a great deal of interest in the Old World. Under these circumstances, the Bretons would never be willing to give up so many interests, population, territory, and resources! Therefore, the Russian Gothic Empire still has the possibility of an alliance with it!"

Thinking so in his heart, William somewhat recovered his spirits: "Of course, these things can be talked about later, and the most important thing now is to defeat the other party." ”

"Does the other party really have any strategy, or do you really have any ideas?" thought to William's heart—why hasn't there been any change until now?"

After thinking about this, William made a decision - if nothing has changed after a while, then he will launch his own trump card and end the battle as soon as possible.

Perhaps, for General Leopold, this battle was of great significance, and it was very important to him. But not for William.

Compared to his world empire, compared to his global strategy, this battle is actually nothing...... Although it cannot be said that it is "nothing", William really does not want to spend too much experience and practice for this battle.

"So, let's get it done as soon as possible. ”

Meanwhile.

"Damn, bastard, am I going to lose?

If His Majesty the Great Emperor of the Gothic Empire of Russia could see from this battle that he was about to face a formidable enemy, the Visigothic Republic, and even affect his great plan to unify the world, and become a great stumbling block to him, then General Leopold on the other side was more important, heavier, and more impatient.

He regarded the Russian Gothic Empire as the biggest obstacle, and could even be said to be the terrible Great Demon King who threatened him with everything.

"Could it be that even this can't defeat the Russian Gothic Empire?!"

Although before that, he had also fought against the Russian Gothic Empire - that is, during the White Army in the New World. At the same time, I heard about various military deeds of the Russian Gothic Empire.

However, in General Leopold's mind, the strength of the imperial army was still numerous, to follow, and even to be defeated.

He felt even more so when he had the Visigothic Republic, an army inspired by the ideas of the Enlightenment and full of excitement.

Like the generals and commanders of most eras, General Leopold was extremely interested in morale. It is believed that morale is one of the important criteria for measuring the combat effectiveness of an army.

If there is a question of the highest morale of the army in the world today, then General Leopold will not hesitate at all, and will think that absolutely, it is the morale of the army of the Visigothic Republic that is high.

The morale of the army of the Visigothic Republic is unparalleled in the world, so the army of the Visigothic Republic should naturally be unparalleled in the world. It is natural that it should be the first in the world, and it is natural that it should be won, and it is also natural that it should not be killed like a chicken cub with a five-to-one, seven-to-one, or even higher exchange ratio.

However.

Things didn't seem to be the same as he imagined.

"Damn, damn it, in that case, you can only ......"

After a slight hesitation, he made a decision immediately. Soon, after receiving the signal, a force lurking on the east bank of the canal killed the troops of the Russian Gothic Empire as fast as possible.

“...... Oh?!"

After hearing the report of the scout cavalry, a cavalry unit suddenly appeared on his flank, the number was about three thousand to five thousand, the corners of William's mouth turned up, and a pleasant smile appeared: "Well, yes, that's right." In this way, the law of war is in line - the enemy really has a card. And this card is barely a trump card.

By some means - either by sneaking across the river at night, or by looking for weak links in the canal, or by simply sending a cavalry to cross the river before the Russian Gothic army reached the canal. Of course, there is another possibility, that is, those people were originally on the east bank of the canal. ”

"Enemy...... What kind of cavalry?" asked William, who then got a natural answer.

Levantine style desert cavalry, as well as desert camel cavalry units.

Sure enough, it was the people of Nirosia who lived on the east bank of the canal. They were inspired, instigated, organized, and, at this time, wanted to strike a fatal blow at William...... Merely......

"If I were the enemy, then this blow should not be used until our troops on the frontal battlefield were in a state of panic, or if I could not resist and send more troops to the west bank of the canal...... Oh, indeed, the other side should also see that the other side has no possibility of achieving this tactical advantage at all. But ......"

"It must be successful, it must be successful! I will put all my hole cards on this, and I must succeed - flanks, cavalry, launch a surprise attack, the army of the Russian Gothic Empire must be taken by surprise, it must be in a state of chaos, only when the commander of the other side is threatened, the troops crossing the river of the other side will be shaken, and only at that time will I have the possibility of turning defeat into victory!"

General Leopold was shouting in his heart, one might even say roaring, expecting a change in the tide of battle in his favor. But......

"If that's the hole card, then ...... I was a little surprised, but not to the extent of being amazed. Is that all...... Or am I looking forward to it a little too much?" William sighed, and then:

"In that case, then you can also take a look at my hole cards, the Visigothic commander......"

Then, after William's signal, a cavalry moved as fast as possible towards the main force of the Visigothic Expeditionary Force......

Of course, they were on the west bank of the canal. (To be continued.) )
