1944 Counterattack (9)

In the brightly lit hall of the front-line war room, the fat man frowned slightly and looked at a detailed map of the Baruta area on the table, the map was made last month, and it was very detailed. On the opposite side of him, the two generals of the Varisian and Hukochili empires stood on either side of the map.

No one made a sound, the atmosphere was a little depressing, behind the two of them were six generals of the Imperial Central Army, the lights also shone on them, dragging out a long shadow like a sword in the hall, after a moment of silence, the fat man withdrew his gaze from the map with a somewhat solemn face, and rubbed his temples, "A strange sortie, do you understand the reason for the dispatch of the Sino-European Barrow alliance this time?"

Hu Keqili said with a respectful expression, "The Central European Baro Alliance, which has never taken the initiative, suddenly pressed the border in the direction of Baruta this time, which is indeed beyond everyone's expectations, the Central European Baro countries and the Congo African Empire signed a military defense alliance, generally speaking, as long as it is not a large-scale military invasion of the Falcon Empire, the Central Europe and Baro Alliance should not take the initiative to choose to attack, but this time, the coalition forces are indeed showing the momentum of going all out to seize Baruta." His subordinates were derelict in their duties, neglecting the intelligence collection of the coalition forces, and had already sent someone to contact the Besuka side, demanding that the reason for the coalition army's movement must be clarified at all costs!" Hukochili bowed his head with some embarrassment on his face and replied, "There is nothing to blame, a war with the Central European and Barrow countries is inevitable!"

The fat man's eyes stared at the landscape on the map, his black eyes were as sharp as an eagle, blooming with a light like a cold sword, and he rarely showed the meaning of punishment, his gaze swept over the nervous faces of the generals, and suddenly the corners of his mouth smiled slightly, and he said easily, "Actually, if the enemy is always so unchallenging, it will also make people feel unmotivated," from the fact that we won a great victory on the southern coast and pressed the Empress of the Gangfei Army that invaded Putao. There is a contempt for the people in the army, don't say that you are a little slack, think that the people of the people in the face of our army should not dare to take the initiative to attack, even I think so" The fat man's voice paused, and said, "Invisibly, everyone's eyes are more or less ignoring the side of the Central European Barrow Alliance, and this time it was taken by surprise, which can be regarded as a lesson"

"Tell me about the current situation!" said the fat man calmly

"Yes, Your Majesty!" said Hukochili, with beads of sweat on his forehead. Taking a deep breath, he began to introduce the situation, "At present, the strength of the empire in the Putau area is divided into three parts, the head of the Lisbonto Front is Lord Varisien, the head of the Baruta Front is the commander of the Second Southern Army, Sallton, and I am in charge of the border guards, with a total strength of 160,000 troops, and the forward strength of the other side on the Baluta side has been confirmed to reach 70,000, and there are more signs of troop build-up in the future, if you add the 100,000 Gangfei Southern Army on the border and the reserve force that may be mobilized. The opponent's total strength is expected to be close to 300,000" "The opponent clearly wants to take advantage of the time when our army has not assembled, and wants to eat Baruta in one fell swoop!"

Hukochili, an Imperial general who had been in Baruta, pointed to the map and said, "Defensively, Baluta Fortress is like a tower in the mountains. On both sides is gently undulating mountains, stretching about 10 miles from north to south, the terrain is steep, and the composition of the mountains is not dirt. Rather, it is a mossy granite, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and is the center of gravity for the defense of the inhuman hinterland. At the beginning, our army also took advantage of the paralysis of the Baruta defenders and attacked for hundreds of miles at a sudden speed, so as to occupy this fortress that is easy to defend and difficult to attack in one fell swoop."

"But considering that this fortress is a rigid hinterland, and it is not easy to transport, the fortress is not equipped with Thor!"

Hukochili's face was ugly, and his voice paused: "Stationed in Baruta is Salton's Southern Army, with 60,000 troops, including 30,000 Southern Army and 30,000 Central Army, which are neatly equipped, fully staffed, and relatively well prepared, but his subordinates think that although Salton is good at defense, the number of crossbowmen in the Second Southern Army is not large, and it is not equipped with Thor, even if the fortress trebuchet is complete, it may not be able to withstand the strong attack of three times the enemy! If you can't rescue in time, you are afraid of ......." Hukochili's voice stopped, but the situation was already obvious, if Baluta was not saved, 60,000 Imperial troops would die there!

"Without Thor, can't resist three times the enemy's onslaught?" The fat man looked at the map noncommittally, sometimes, the number doesn't mean anything! The coalition army is so aggressive, do you really think that my 60,000-strong army of Baruta is an ornament!"

The fat man's hand rested heavily on the map, and there was a hint of hideousness in his tone" Although there is no actual survey of the terrain, but from this detailed map drawn last month, the strategic importance of Baruta is so obvious, this is the dividing line between the border and the hinterland, the empire and the Gangfei who control here, it is equivalent to lifting a cold and flickering sword, can carry out a military strike on the hinterland of the other party at any time, when Hu Keqili led 10,000 cavalry to raid and burn the granary of the Gangfei army, and then also fled from the direction of Baruta The fierce pursuit of the Gangfei army,

It seems that Gangfei people are unforgettable about this matter, and at the same time, they also see this, if we can't get back Baruta, the dominance of the war will always be in our hands, and no one likes the embarrassment of being completely unguarded in their own homes, and they want to chase the thief and be blocked by the thief.

"Varisian, how much ash do you produce?" The fat man seemed to think of something, and looked at Varissien, "Your Majesty, there are about sixty tons, the time is too rushed, even if you are in a hurry to work day and night......" Vasilien's body trembled slightly, and his face was a little crying and laughing, "What is the use of that kind of stone ash except choking people?"

"Sixty tons is enough"

The fat man rolled his eyes back and said, "Tonight, we will immediately transport them all to Baruta!"

"But Your Majesty, that's sixty tons, and it needs to pass through the enemy's area, Varisian was at a loss, and said with a somewhat embarrassed face, "The army of Baruta is pressing the border, and the Gangfei army should also take corresponding measures to cut it off, if there is no army to protect it, I am afraid that it will be difficult to pass through it!"

"The enemy is still gathering forces at this time, and it should not have formed a siege of Baruta, as for transportation, it is not a problem, if 10,000 cavalry, 60 tons, that is, 60,000 catties, the weight of each cavalry is 60,000 catties, it should be easy to transport overnight!

The fat man said in a calm tone. Flicked his finger on the large green of the Gangfei area on the map, and said to himself, "It's really uncomfortable! It's a good choice to dig it all at once!" "What the hell is this for?" Hukochili glanced at Varisian with a strange expression, using so many cavalry just to send a pile of useless stone ash, and Solton, who was looking forward to reinforcements, might be disappointed this time

"Let's do it, let's declare war on the whole of Obaro in another way," the fat man stood up from his seat in a high-spirited tone, and a malicious smile flashed on his white face. The generals all around them faintly felt the oppressive force of the air. Everyone nervously stood up straight, it was a feeling of a completely open position, and it was a feeling that I hadn't felt in a long time on the Falcon Majesty, who was dressed in black. Still flat and straight clinging to his strong limbs, it shows more and more lean and capable masculinity.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" the generals replied neatly

When night fell on the earth, 10,000 Imperial cavalry carrying lime set out quietly from the border led by Varisien himself, the horse's hooves shook the mountains and rivers, and the distance from the border to Baruta was eighty miles, even at the speed of cavalry, it would take a whole night,

This is also where Varisian felt hesitant and embarrassed at first. This road is not easy to walk,

Sure enough, a small number of patrols appeared in some areas along the way, and the amazing cavalry rush really caused these patrols to dodge. By the time the morning light of the next day illuminated the towering mountain tower-like fortress ahead, 10,000 cavalry had safely reached the Baruta fortress

"Lord Varysian!" Salton, the commander of the Second Southern Army stationed in Baruta, the former famous general of the Great Germany, greeted him with a happy face, and was about to jump up with joy. He swept his gaze over the cavalry that Varisian had brought with him, the bright droplets of water wetting their light chain mail and staining their gray-brown armor with mud. There was a paleness on the faces of the marching troops in the night,

Although tired and wolf-bèi a little, anyway, it is also 10,000 cavalry, for Soldton, who is feeling that his troops are insufficient, it is really like a charcoal in the snow,

In front of him, Varisian dismounted from his horse and ordered behind him, "All right, all of you unload your things!" and the cavalrymen dismounted, and Salton saw that each of them was carrying a cloth bag, and he did not know what was inside, and the cavalrymen were very careful, and stacked the cloth bags together, and soon there were several large piles of cloth bags piled up on the vast flat of the fortress

"Alright, Lord Sallton, my mission is complete!" Varysian turned around, took out a letter, handed it to the happy Soldton and said, "This is your Majesty's order written by Your Majesty, reinforcements have been sent to you, we still need to rush back immediately!" "Go back?Lord Varysian, you're not kidding me!" Soldton's face was stunned for a moment, "If you don't go back, it is estimated that you will not be able to go back, and Your Majesty will punish me for delaying the fighter!" Varisien tidied up the armor on his body, wiped the dust on his face with his hands, and turned over his war horse.

"Everybody get on your horse!" there was a neat order, and the broken leaves of the armor sounded, and the cavalrymen stepped neatly on their horses

"Aren't these cavalry the reinforcements that His Majesty gave me?" said Toldton, stunned

"The cavalry is only here to send reinforcements!" Varisian pointed to the pile of cloth parcels with a sly smile on the corner of his mouth, "In fact, the contents of those parcels are the reinforcements that His Majesty gave to Your Excellency, and they have already been placed there for Lord Soldton!

"Lord Varisian, what the hell is going on......" Salton had an urge to cry without tears, 10,000 elite cavalry turned into what kind of ashes, even Salton, who has the name of a remnant lion, can't stand such a deficit "To be honest, I don't know!"

Varisien shrugged his shoulders, "Your Majesty just said that as long as Lord Salton executes it well, the first achievement in this battle may be Lord Salton! This is something that many people envy!"

After speaking, Varisien farted, and took 10,000 cavalry from the gate of the Baruta Fortress, and Salton stayed there completely, with a smile on his face, and a completely dazed Salton opened the order written to himself, his eyes swept over, and he blinked in disbelief. This...... Is it really possible?" Come on, get a plate of water immediately!" Salton looked nervous and walked towards a package, and soon, his subordinates called a basin of water, Salton picked up a cloth package, his face hesitated, and suddenly threw it into the basin of water, and the water began to overflow the package,

"My lord, who are you?" the subordinates looked at Salton, who was full of seriousness in bewilderment. It can't be that he is confused, "Oh my God, look!" Suddenly, I don't know who shouted, everyone was startled, only Salton's eyes became brighter and brighter when he looked at the basin, only to see that the basin was full of white bubbles, and the outer layer of cloth wrappers rolled rapidly in the white bubbles, shattering into strips, as if eroded by a strong poison, as the bubbles became more and more. Some white, muddy water gushed out of the basin and hit the ground nearby, and suddenly there was a squeak similar to the sound of something gnawing, and the white foam dissipated. Revealing the lime-corroded potholed ground "This ......" Talteron looked at the almost completely unrecognizable ground, and his body suddenly shuddered slightly when he thought of the method of use mentioned in the order, and everyone raised their heads to look at the whole pile of cloth bags like a small mountain. There was a sudden shock in his eyes.

Below the fortress of Baruta, the tents of the coalition forces were ten miles long, covering the original color of the earth. The scene of the flags fluttering in the military flags of various countries is very spectacular, and in the middle of the largest certain military camp, all the generals of the Central European and Baro coalition armies totaling 27 people are all here.

For the news that a large number of Falcon Army cavalry entered from the border last night, the faces of the coalition generals were frosty, and the strength of the Northern Falcon was like a shadow entrenched in the sky overhead for many Central European Barrow Kingdoms, not to mention that everyone knew that the invincible Emperor of the Northern Falcon Empire, His Majesty, was like stars in the sky

The rumors of the Falcon Cavalry's extraordinary combat power have been well known to Central European Barro, and the Falcon Cavalry's style of fighting surprise battles is also the most secretive to the generals, like an off-string arrow that brings the wind to the wind, everyone will feel nervous before they hit the target, and no one can be sure that they are not the target

"Lord Ra, since you know it's reinforcements from Baruta, why don't you stop them?" asked one of the coalition generals dissatisfied

"The number of opponents is unknown, and the combat power of the Falcon Empire's cavalry has always been the highest in the continent, even the northern Gauls have been swept away, not to mention a small country like ours, if Lord Fit's White Steel Legion has such an interest, I can provide the route that the other party has traveled!"

Another coalition general who was questioned replied lukewarmly

"Lord Rolla is too humble, isn't it true that the Wind Army of the Yi Yali Kingdom is known for being the best at mountain warfare?" the coalition general pursed his lips with disdain

"Aren't the white steel heavy infantry of the Rayla Kingdom also famous for being able to confront the cavalry onslaught head-on?" The questioner retorted very happily, "And didn't Lord Fett say many times in private that he wanted to compete with the cavalry of the Falcon Empire, and now the opportunity is in front of him, our Yiyali Kingdom naturally can't plunder people's beautiful things, these Falcon Imperial cavalry will be given to Lord Fett! Let us small countries see the power of the iron wall defense of the white steel warriors of the Reyla Kingdom, so that even if we return home, we will feel that the trip is worth it!" ”

The two coalition generals gritted their teeth in a quarrel, in fact, everyone knew very well that the war between the Yi Yali Kingdom and the Rela Kingdom had lasted for three years, and the generals on both sides had long been incompatible

"Okay, you don't have to quarrel anymore!No matter who the other party's cavalry target is, we just need to concentrate all our efforts to capture the fortress of Baruta" Leoper, the chief dispatcher of the Central European Barrow Alliance, stopped the two from arguing with some annoyance,

This time, the Central European Barrow alliance is composed of eleven countries, among which the national strength is not much worse than the Gangfei Empire, the second-tier power Rela Kingdom that has been rapidly raised in recent years, and there is also the mountain kingdom Yi Yali, where three-quarters of the country's territory is continuous mountains, and the chief dispatcher Leopold is from the beautiful Audis Woodland Kingdom, Leopold was born in the royal family of the Odis Woodland Kingdom, and is the duke, the highest status in the representative of the coalition, and the Duke of Leopold's generosity and fairness are very famous among the countries, and he is the best candidate to serve as the coordinator of the coalition countries。 "Actually, arguing won't change anything, it's better to launch an attack to better assess the true combat strength of the Falcon Army!" said an experienced coalition general, "Yes, let's fight once, anyway, our army currently has the advantage!" His formulation was echoed by most people, "Okay, launch a general attack this afternoon!" Leopold, the commander of the Central European Barrow, began to arrange the attack, and after the meeting dispersed at noon, the generals of the coalition army began to prepare their troops,

The general attack began at four o'clock in the afternoon, and the 110,000-strong coalition of Central and European Barrow countries pounced on Baruta "Attention, ah"

In the shocking impact of a coalition officer, the corpse was shot directly through the warhorse, and flew out several meters before falling, smashing into the mud below, the bright red human blood stained the muddy water in an instant, and the coalition infantry in front was mostly light infantry,

I saw a white cold light shooting out of the city wall in front, like a piece of bamboo that was broken by a knife, and the bloody half-moon front end passed from the body of the soldier in the front, and a bloody blood mark came out of the rear, and then shot heavily into the body of another soldier, like a string of blood gourds inserted into the ground, but in the face of an army of 100,000 people, this situation is just a few waves on the sea, "It's the arrow cart of the Falcon Army!"

The faces of the coalition generals who were observing in the rear were a little solemn, "The number of arrow carts on the other side is limited, but there are only about twenty of them, which is not enough to affect the entire siege battle" The chief dispatcher, Leopold, looked calm, and asked the adjutant behind him to record the other party's arrangement, and he wanted to break the mystery of the Baruta in front of him like breaking the petals of a flower (to be continued......
