Chapter 584: Newman
There was nothing to say all the way, and when Wang Yong returned to the Fifth Army station with the light spirit on his back out of breath, Wang Yong didn't say a word, first ordered to prepare food, and then sat on the chair and drank a large glass of boiled water, which was a sigh of relief.
After the commander of the legion Fuller waited for Wang Yong's breath to even, he came over with a smile and asked about the Shenlong Pass, and Wang Yong walked for a few hours with a light spirit on his back, and he didn't even eat breakfast, and now he was so hungry that he was concentrating on his back, how could he be in the mood to say that, he found something to eat casually, stuffed it into his mouth vigorously, and finally drank a big bowl of hot noodle soup before he hiccuped comfortably.
Needless to say, Shadow Dance and Light Spirit, along the way, the two of them were not hungry, the fruits were eaten one after another, although Wang Yong also ate a few, but his traditional stomach, if there was no staple food at the bottom, he would not be able to eat enough.
Wang Yong put down the empty bowl and asked Fuller with a curious expression: "I see that the war horse has arrived, didn't Matthew tell you about the Shenlong Pass?"
Fuller pouted and said, "Don't mention those three guys, since they came, they were dragged away by Harvey and them before I could ask, how long has it been? ”
Wang Yong smiled and said, "They smell the same." Then, Wang Yong simply told him about the battle for the Shenlong Pass, and Fuller, who was also extremely belligerent in his bones, listened to it for a while.
Wang Yong smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's time for us to play next." ”
Fuller was overjoyed: "Really?
Wang Yong pressed his hand and motioned for Fuller to sit down, and then said unhurriedly: "How can you be so impetuous as the commander of the legion, sit down, I look dizzy when you turn around, tell me about the situation here, how is the recent training?"
Fuller smiled embarrassedly and said, "Since you left last time, the soldiers have been training hard every day in the wing, from physical fitness to queues. There are also some combat techniques that everyone learns quickly, but it will take at least a few months to form initial combat effectiveness. ”
Wang Yong nodded and said, "You can not consider the others first, but you must pay attention to physical fitness." By the way, how are the soldiers riding? Is there a queue to train cavalry?"
Fuller shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Matthew and the three of them only arrived last night, and they only officially started training riding this morning, but the effect is not very good, most of the soldiers are not very good at riding, and several have been seriously injured in less than a morning." ”
Wang Yong also knew that this was not a matter of urgency. Relieved and said: "It's good to practice more, anyway, we still have a few days." ”
The corners of Fuller's mouth twitched when he heard this, and he asked cautiously, "How many days?"
Wang Yong smiled and said, "There are probably three more days." ”
Fuller sighed with a bitter face and said, "Boss, how can three days be enough?"
Wang Yong shrugged his shoulders and said innocently: "I can't help it, the enemy is coming soon, so you have to strive to make all the soldiers learn to ride horses in these three days, as for the queue, forget it, we are not a cavalry unit." ”
Fuller nodded helplessly and said, "I'll do my best." Boss, what's going on outside now?"
Wang Yong thought for a moment and said, "According to the scout's report, the troops of the Eternal Empire have finished resting on the border of the West Asia Province and have entered the West Asia Province early this morning. However, their commanders were more cautious, and did not drive straight in, but left men to defend every certain distance, ready to fight a protracted battle with us. ”
Fuller asked puzzledly: "The Shenlong Pass has been lost." They don't have any concerns, and they dare to invade the provinces of West Asia?"
Wang Yong shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands and said, "I don't know what's going on?" According to Chris's analysis, either they don't know about the Shenlong Pass yet, or they have absolute confidence. ”
Just as Chris guessed. Newman, the commander of the Eternal Empire's West Asia Provincial Front, did not know that the Shenlong Pass had been lost, because all the Eagle Legends sent by Hurt were intercepted by the air scouts on the seashore, and the Eternal Empire had now lost contact with the Shenlong Pass. Newman and other commanders of several fronts contacted Hurt and Shenlong Pass several times without success, and they finally decided to attack at the time originally planned, although Newman was strange, but he didn't worry much about Shenlong Pass, because with Hurt's 20,000 cavalry, the entire pass was defended by 40,000 people, and according to Newman's knowledge, even if the enemy concentrated all his forces, he did not have the strength to capture Shenlong Pass.
As for the temporary loss of contact with Shenlong Pass and Hutt, it is normal in times of war, so Newman didn't think much about it, thinking that Hutt, a greedy guy, had already entered the Seaside Province first, and there was no time to reply, as Hutt had often done in the past.
Newman is about fifty years old, with a standard Chinese face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, slightly thick lips, dark skin, and a face of righteousness and loyalty. From his neat armor, meticulously combed blonde hair, and shiny leather boots, gentle tone and elegant manners, it is easy to see that he is a very cultivated nobleman. In his thirty years of military life, Newman has always adhered to the aristocratic manners, which makes him special and unusual in the three-class army, and has also formed his own style.
Newman is cautious, never greedy for merit, and is a defensive military talent, this time his task is to occupy the province of West Asia, firmly hold the southern border of the coastal province, cut off the back road of the seashore, and then slowly advance, cooperate with the Hutt Front to occupy the coastal province and establish a defensive line to consolidate the results of the battle, and prevent the army of the Aier Empire from counterattacking.
According to the battle plan, the province of West Asia is just a springboard, but Newman is still the same steady and steady, although he has explored the empty province of West Asia many times in the past few days, but he has not received security information again, and Newman will not take a step forward.
During the lunch break, Newman, who had just eaten lunch, drank fresh juice, pointed to the map and said to the herald beside him: "The number and types of defenders sent some scouts to explore the border between Falk and Vado, as well as various fortifications, the more detailed the better." The herald repeated the order and saluted away.
A man dressed as an officer in his thirties said impatiently: "Your Excellency, Commander, is our marching speed too slow? The West Asian Province has already been inspected several times, except for the civilians who have not had time to leave, there is not even a single soldier of the Aier Empire, I think it is better to hurry up and go to the border of the Haibin Province to rest and set up defenses? Anyway, this West Asian Province is not our target, even if it is taken back by the Aier Empire, it is nothing. (To be continued......)
