Chapter 1072 Coordination
readx;? Back at the location of his legion, Dipu was a little irritable. www.biquge.info Pen Fun Pavilion had just returned from General Gore's side, and he already knew the strength of the two armies, and with the eleventh army of Dipp, the human coalition army was also at a disadvantage of 600,000 to 800,000. What's even worse is that the demons are still attacking from both sides, and the deployment of troops is even more unfavorable.
The actions of the demons were very decisive, and for the completely abandoned defense line of the Guana River, except for the three main cities, they stationed a small number of troops, and the other abandoned castles turned a blind eye to them, concentrating their forces to confront the human coalition forces.
For the time being, the battle situation doesn't seem to be pessimistic, although it is more to fight less, but under the full defense, it is not something that the demons can swallow in one bite. Moreover, it also completely contained the demon troops who had crossed the river, and the full withdrawal of the Guana River defense line was also quite smooth. But just think about the consequences of the Guana River completely freezing and the demon army attacking in full force after ten days or so, it can be terrifying.
In the face of the swarming demon army, these four legions must be in danger. When this army collapsed, how could the fleeing soldiers and civilians who were slow to move survive and then violently broke down the border defense line with overwhelming force. So the current stalemate situation is not so much about working hard as waiting for death.
It seems that a dead end has been reached. It's hard to even give up and break away. Even if the demons were suddenly idiots, let these four legions retreat smoothly. Do you want to abandon all the millions of fleeing soldiers and civilians behind the defense line of the Guana River?
What is even more troubling is that these four legions still have their own opinions. The deputy corps commander Heideberg, who commanded the first part of the Fourth Legion, of course, was holding on and waiting for the return of Marquis Lev and the main force of his own corps. Tim Paladin, the head of the Knights of the Golden Bellflowers, proposed that the limited counterattack should be carried out with the tactics of active defense.
Well, what kind of tactics should be used now? It doesn't matter at all, it's already in a dead end, it's just a matter of dying sooner rather than later. And the Twelfth Legion is a tendon, and they are ready to defend until the last moment, wanting to fight for the great retreat to the last breath.
The mood of the Twelve Legions can be understood, because the territory of the Red Lion Principality and the last common people of the Red Lion Principality here are the only ones left. From the Guana River to the border, this is the last remaining territory of the Red Lion Principality. And in addition to the people who have migrated to the Black Eye Collar, the soldiers and civilians who have been evacuated this time are basically the last remaining population of the Red Lion Principality. If all of them were abandoned, then the Red Lion Principality would basically cease to exist. Is it that all the others are abandoned, and this last principality army is preserved? Is it that it will become a very sad rootless pine? If this is the case, then what is the need to keep the army?
As for the eleventh corps of Dipp, this is the other extreme. They are not interested in a hopeless war. I want to evacuate in time to ensure that I have the "fruit" in hand. On the way to the convergence, the 11th Legion has collected a lot of materials, and in the small-scale contact battle with the demons, it has also gained a lot of merit points. In fact, in terms of combat effectiveness, the Eleventh Legion is indeed considered elite, but it is too good at settling accounts, so they all have their own careful thoughts.
It's not that he disobeys Dipp's orders. is that every time I act, I am picking fat and thin, and I don't see rabbits and eagles. Especially in the face of the demon reconnaissance team that fights more and less, they are all in good spirits, but when they hear that it is the main force of the demon race, they escape happily. Even in the end, even Dipu couldn't stand it, but as soon as he said a few words, those officers were full of words and a lot of crooked reasoning, which made Dipu angry half to death.
Four legions, four hearts. It's especially funny, there is no unified command. Although it was the temporary agent of General Gore, his agent qualifications were very irregular, and General Gore was originally going to Viven City, but he suddenly turned around and came here. And this temporary acting is only temporary, and when the Marquis Lev arrives, he will definitely hand over the command, so ...... Just make do with it.
And the four corps commanders, Heideberg's qualifications are too shallow, so there is no need to mention them. And Tim Paladin's military seniority and status in the army are one line higher than that of the old General Gore, although both of them are imperial generals, but the importance of the main knights and other troops is a world of difference. And William Jr., as the heir of the Red Lion Principality and the future Grand Duke, is even higher in status than Tim Paladin. Not to mention, of course, Dip, the bewitching general of the Empire. In this way, the three corps commanders turned out to be higher than the old General Gore, and it was a completely top-heavy situation, how could they command smoothly?
So on this day, these people came to the old general Gore again and began the routine coordination......
......
This is the third coordination today, and although it is already evening, several people have already decided that they will never end until a result is discussed. Before the meeting began, however, Heideberg quietly approached Dipp and quipped with a smile: "Dipp, isn't it like you? Why haven't you said a word today?"
Dipu was also happy: "You are not the same, let's both listen with our ears!"
As the two youngest high-ranking Imperial officers, Dipp and Heideberg were self-aware, and they were auditors anyway. Whatever the final result, it is nothing more than an execution.
However, Heideberg still had his own thoughts: "Dip, not to mention anything else, our two legions will lean together first, watch and help each other, and wait for the Marquis to come." ”
Dipu smiled: "Okay! Willy is also here, our brothers are together again, and we will act together when the time comes!"
While he was laughing, the coordination meeting had begun, and the quick-tempered Tim Paladin was the first to say his opinion: "It is less than ten days before the Guana River is completely frozen, and our four legions can't stay in this radius of dozens of miles forever. Do you just stay where you are and sit still? I don't care about your legions, anyway, my golden bell is ready to fight back! I can't keep following the rhythm of the demons, that's too easy, right?" As soon as he spoke, Tim Paladin was very dissatisfied.
Then, the generals of the Red Lion Principality who assisted William Jr. also spoke: "Yes, a full-scale counteroffensive cannot deprive us of the honor of the last knights......"
The old general Gore secretly glanced at Dipp and Heideberg a few times, and found that neither of them had any intention of speaking, and with a slight groan, he nodded in agreement, and compromised: "Then counterattack, but a limited counterattack! We ask for your understanding and the need for you to restrain your soldiers and make them obey orders. ”
Hearing that the old general Gore finally agreed to counterattack, several generals of the Red Lion Principality discussed it a little and all nodded...... (To be continued.) )
