Alien Empire Total War - Chapter 237
revenge!
This is a belief that was deeply branded in Vitalig’s heart after the sacrifice of his elder brother Gokaj.
He couldn’t accept that his brother who grew up with him was killed in a shameless and despicable enemy attack, and he couldn’t accept that he had to regret leaving the navy because of the loss of an eye, so he had no chance to avenge his brother.
For this reason, he can only use his influence to wave the flag in public day after day, hoping that the government can reorganize the navy and defeat the enemy in the navy that the enemy is proud of.
And now his chance has finally come, because the experienced captains were basically killed in that naval battle, and the ability of those navy cadets who just graduated from the military academy, no matter how strong they are, will not be enough until there is a real combat. Serve as the commander of the fleet.
The newly launched warships are the ones that they have been building for several months. They hold the hope of the future imperial navy, and they also bear the responsibility of bringing shame on the main force of the navy that was annihilated in the sneak attack. If this fleet If the battle is lost because of the affairs of the new commander, the Imperial Navy will bear a shameful name in the early days of its birth and become the shame of the Empire.
Not only that, under the situation that the land battlefield continues to gain advantages and open the situation, if the Imperial Navy is also defeated this time, then they will probably never have the opportunity to wash away their shame in the future, and the development of the war will not wait for the Navy five or six. Months of construction time, in these five or six months, relying on the invincible Imperial Army alone is enough to directly conquer the Enkland Republic.
…
At the same time that Vitalig and Perrin rushed to the south, on the Enklan battlefield, the three divisions of the Fourth Army that went deep behind the enemy also successfully opened up the situation. They relied on the documents forged by the defecting staff and successfully defrauded the Enklan Third Army. The trust of the army, after a surprise attack, successfully won the number of strongholds at the junction of the third army and the first army.
At the same time as they launched the attack, the Imperial Fifth Army, which contacted them in advance and responded well, also launched a fierce attack on the defense line of the enemy’s First Army. In this battle, the defensive units of the First Army were attacked by the enemy. , only persisted for one afternoon before the whole line was defeated, a whole division plus a brigade of troops, and the death and escape were almost wiped out.
Almost at the same time that the joint operation of the Fourth Army and the Fifth Army was successful, the news of the destruction of the military headquarters also spread throughout the entire line of defense of the First Army of Enkelan, following the footsteps of the fleeing 5th Division messengers. , the first reaction of the division commanders on the defense line when they heard this terrible situation can be said to be almost the same – they do not believe that the enemy can break through the tight defense line and directly attack the safe army.
But then, they each sent scouts to the stronghold of the military headquarters, hoping to break the “rumour” conveyed by the 5th Division’s messenger who was suspected of being a spy, although at the same time, they were ready to accept the bad news. is the preparation for the fact.
After the scouts sent by the divisions reported the scenes they saw at the stronghold, the bad news was finally confirmed. The commanders of the divisions could not help but fall into a faint panic. When the front line was not broken through, what happened to the enemy? Reaching the safe rear and attacking their command center?
Soon they found answers – from prisoners of war who had been released by the Imperial forces, and although most of them chose to flee to the safety of the rear, many soldiers loyal to the country escaped. The front line, told all the information they knew to the front line troops, and this solved the mystery in the hearts of the people of Enkelan.
A few days later, news from the Kingdom of Todes also confirmed this. The Kingdom of Todes disclosed the protection agreement signed with the Borsland Empire and declared it to be a protectorate of the empire.
Combined with the sudden agreement between the Todes Kingdom and the Empire, the reason why the enemy troops could attack from the Todes Kingdom direction naturally made sense.
Even though this was straightened out, the Enklan division commanders were powerless to do anything about it. They could only curse the shamelessness and cowardice of the Todds, and at the same time made the decision to shrink the line of defense. Will they pass through the Kingdom of Todes again and attack their rear? They can only shrink the defense line while dividing their troops to defend the rear.
The question of whether there will be enemy troops in the direction of Todes Kingdom has not been resolved, and another big trouble has emerged – that is, the connection between the first army and the third army that was cut off by the enemy.
After the junction of the two armies’ defense lines was broken through, the Imperial Army cut off all the roads that the First Army could retreat at the fastest speed, and began to mobilize troops on a large scale, also shrinking the encirclement of the First Army of Enkelan, hoping to be able to In one fell swoop, this army of dragons without a leader was wiped out.
On the other hand, the Enkelan Third Army immediately noticed something was wrong after the connection was cut off, and quickly mobilized troops to support the lost friendly forces, but their troops were immediately blocked by the well-prepared imperial army. Progress was delayed, and instead it was counterattacked with heavy losses.
The development of the war situation went beyond the expectations of the commander of the Fifth Army, Victor Clos, and the commander of the Third Army, Radomir Warren, the two highest military commanders in the Enkelan region. The plan was to let the three divisions of the Fourth Army bypass the enemy defense line~www.mtlnovel.com~ and then cooperate with the frontal attacking friendly troops to force a gap in the enemy defense line.
But now… the unauthorized actions of the three divisions of the Fourth Army have brought them a greater victory and fighter opportunities. The Fourth Army finally succeeded in creating such a huge encirclement before the enemy could react, encircling more than 50,000 soldiers of the enemy’s First Army.
It can be said that the First Army surrounded by them now has no way to escape, and it is difficult to fly. Next, they have only two ways to go. Either they can resist and fight to the death, or they can take the initiative to surrender and become prisoners of war of the imperial army.
If the target of the besieged is replaced by the army of the Empire, then there is no doubt that no one will surrender, and they will all choose to resist stubbornly. There are not many people who are willing to fight stubbornly. Most of them still cherish their lives, but they have not yet reached the point where they must surrender, so they will choose to continue to resist.
Therefore, the first attempt to persuade the imperial army to surrender before the official offensive did not achieve much success. After the persuasion failed, Victor and Warren began to order a storm.
