Alien Empire Total War - Chapter 203
The suggestion of the division commander of the Second Division of the Third Army, Vesto Ackerman, was adopted, and the two Victors formulated a more detailed battle plan in response to his suggestion, and as the “original author” of the battle plan, Ackerman’s second division successfully won the main task.
If the main task is placed in the army of Enkelan or other countries, it can be regarded as a hot potato that everyone can’t avoid, but it can be said to be a good job that everyone is eager to do in the imperial army, although This will result in many deaths, but not only will they be rewarded handsomely, but they will also receive the honor that the warriors seek.
According to the battle plan formulated at the military conference, the official offensive will begin three days later, on September 31.
The 2nd Division and the 3rd Division of the 5th Army under the command of Division Commander Ackerman assumed the main task of attacking the defense lines of the 4th and 8th Divisions of the 2nd Enkelan Army, the 1st Dragoon Division and the 2nd Cuirassiers respectively. Divisions will also be involved in auxiliary operations. The other divisions and brigades are responsible for feinting, to contain the enemy forces on other fronts, and prevent the enemy from deploying reinforcements.
The two divisions in charge of the main attack had to occupy their positions as much as possible before the enemy’s reserves arrived for reinforcements, and rely on the positions to resist the enemy’s counterattack. This was not difficult for them. full of confidence.
…
The time soon came to the night before the attack. The main tent where Victor lived was still brightly lit. Victor, dressed as a general, sat at the desk and checked the preparations reported by various ministries.
At this moment, a soldier’s salute sounded outside, and then the door curtain was lifted. Victor looked up subconsciously, just to see Warren’s face appearing in his line of sight.
“Warren, you haven’t rested yet?” Victor asked in surprise.
“You didn’t sleep either.” Warren said with a chuckle, walked to the desk, and picked up a document, which was the report of the logistics officer. In order to ensure that there would be no logistical problems in this attack, the logistics officer had already Enough ammunition to support a large-scale battle was delivered to the troops in advance.
He quickly glanced at the contents of the document and put it back again. Victor watched his movements and asked, “How are the soldiers in the mood?”
“Emotionally stable, they are all looking forward to tomorrow’s battle.” Warren said, “The soldiers have been holding back for so long, and they have long been eager to fight, so you can rest assured that the military will be available.”
“That’s good.” Victor’s expression was also much more relaxed, and he was still in the mood to make a joke: “I think if the Enkelans knew that we were going to attack tomorrow, they would be anxious and unable to sleep tonight. , maybe it will be easier to win tomorrow.”
“Hahaha…”
Warren smiled cooperatively, and then changed the conversation, saying: “General Cross, you should rest earlier, since the battle plan was determined, you have not slept, and tomorrow’s battle will consume a lot of energy, I don’t think anyone would like to see their commander suddenly faint in battle.”
“I see, I’ll go to sleep in a while.” Victor said, but he didn’t mean to put down the report document in his hand. Seeing this, Warren reluctantly took the report document from his hand and said, “I’m here. Look, General Cross, you really need to rest.”
Seeing Warren’s actions, Victor’s heart moved slightly. He stood up and said, “I’ll go to rest now, General Warren, thank you very much for your kindness.”
“Good night, I hope tomorrow’s war can go smoothly.”
“Good night.”
…
Under everyone’s expectations, the day came soon. After breakfast, the imperial army began to leave the barracks in an orderly manner and marched towards their respective combat posts. The movements of the imperial army were quickly discovered by the Enkelans, and it didn’t take long , the enthusiastic warning bugle was blown, and the Enkelan soldiers in the camp ran out of the camp amid the officers’ reprimands.
“What happened?”
“Why did the bugle sound suddenly?”
“Could it be that the Lumeng people launched an attack…”
The soldiers talked a lot about the sudden bugle sound, and the officers all looked solemnly at the direction of the other side of the distant border. It didn’t take long for the messenger to take the order from above and ran to the camps of the various troops. inside, shouting loudly:
“Everyone is in a state of combat readiness, and the Lumon army has launched an attack!”
When they heard the enemy’s attack, the soldiers all looked shocked. Most of them were recruits who had only received short-term military training. When it really came, they were a little flustered, and everyone was in a panic, worried that they would die in the next battle.
“Move all! All move!”
The officers quickly reacted. They shouted loudly and ordered the soldiers to follow them out of the camp and into the previously constructed positions. The soldiers, in an uneasy mood, got into the positions one after another amid the officers’ scolding. into the trenches and enter their respective combat positions.
Due to the lack of heavy artillery weapons, there were not many artillery pieces deployed in the positions of the Enkelan army. The poor artillerymen lifted the cannon jackets covering the artillery pieces and poured a sufficient amount of black powder into the muzzles. Cannonball, ready to fire.
After all this was done, the soldiers hiding in the trenches looked anxiously at the direction of the enemy’s attack in the distance. Under their gaze, the distant horizon was gradually occupied by a long blue wave. As the distance of the blue wave continued to shrink, each soldier’s face showed a look of fear.
“Okay, there are a lot of people in UU reading www.uukanshu.com!”
“That’s really a group of elite soldiers!”
The latter sentence is the emotion of the officers in the crowd. Even if they are separated by such a long distance, they can still see it from the tight and dense queue and the monstrous murderous aura. Combined with the fact that they were beaten up before and had to escape from Beiwen. Provincial experience, officers and some veterans can not help but scalp tingling.
“Blessed by the Holy Spirit, if I can return to my hometown alive in this war, I will definitely buy a lot of tribute to the temple to worship you.”
A recruit kept swallowing his nervous saliva and prayed to the gods he believed in. He regretted that he responded to the draft when his brain was hot and came to this battlefield. He also remembered his father before he came. The dissuasion and the mother’s tears, the regret in my heart is a little deeper.
“Adjust the shooting angle and prepare to fire!”
The artillerymen were busy again, adjusting the firing angle of the artillery. After tens of seconds, following the order of the officer, the artillery lead was ignited, and several artillery pieces on the Enkelan position took the lead in roaring, opening the prelude to the battle…
