Chapter 125 Celebrating the defeat (1)
In the Ultraman Empire, the Silver Capital War has entered the countdown, and five legions on both sides confront each other closely on the border.
The number of people on both sides is over four million. So many people gather here, but there is no abnormal movement.
Although there is a solemn atmosphere in the air, without orders, these soldiers will never take action.
While waiting quietly, loud trumpets suddenly sounded from the Wilt Free Alliance Army. I saw cavalrymen wearing colorful branches, extremely conspicuously slogans, pulling the reins with one hand and blowing the trumpet with the other, and riding horses and running back and forth in the camp.
The officers lined up at the front immediately shouted: "Rise the gun and raise the shield!" There was a loud metal rapping sound, and the front line of the Alliance immediately stood in full swing, and the shields were like walls.
The officer drew his sword and waved it: "Go forward!" The loud sound of footsteps falling to the ground immediately rang continuously.
In the camp of the Ultraman Empire Army, Marshal Zotra Reinhardt personally directed the battle. Some people may say that he was competing for merit, but this is related to whether the Ultraman Empire can have the Yindu territory for two consecutive times. Even if Zotra is unwilling to come, the civil and military officials of the empire would force Zotra to come in person.
"Marrior, the Alliance Army did not dispatch cavalry this time, all of them were infantry, and five legions were pressing forward together. Do they want to solve this problem at once?" The staff officer of the Marshal's Mansion asked Zuotra while recording the data.
Zotra likes his subordinates to ask himself so that he can think of the issues he should pay attention to from these inquiries, and at the same time, it is also an opportunity to teach himself these advisers.
"Well, this is very strange. Aren't they going to attack with the Thirteenth Legion as their fists? Why did they attack the whole line?"
Marshal Zotra frowned and looked at the enemy in the distance, and suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "They don't have cavalry? The 12th Ace Corps of the Free Alliance is a cavalry legion!
There was an error in the intelligence!"
Everyone present changed their faces. They had already started the war and found an intelligence error. What's going on? What's going on? What's the food for the Imperial Intelligence Department? All the intelligence personnel who stayed in the command center lowered their heads with ugly expressions.
"The responsibility will be investigated at that time. Now you will find detailed information for me immediately!"
The marshal shouted angrily at the intelligence officials, and the intelligence officials immediately ran out as if they were amnesty.
At this time, Marshal Zotra shouted at the officers: "Don't panic. Although the enemy's real numbers do not match the intelligence, the number of people is still the same! With our elite legion, are we still afraid of fighting head-on with them?"
When the officers heard this, a proud look immediately appeared on their faces. Yes, no matter what legion he is, if you dare to appear in front of the Imperial Army, then there will be only one outcome!
"Marson, since the enemy does not have cavalry, can the cavalry on both sides of our army be sent out to harass?" asked a staff officer.
"Well, send them out and let them take on the alert mission by the way." The marshal nodded and said.
In this battle, the cavalry did not have much effect. Although it was transformed by the two countries and was very prosperous, no matter how it was transformed, it could not change the appearance of the mountainous areas here.
The cavalry fights in mountainous areas, which is amazing. Don’t think about head-on combat such as charging into battle.
With the succession of the messenger, when the cavalry drawn from the participating legions on both sides of the Imperial Army were dispatched, the Alliance Army had already reached a distance that could be seen in the number of Imperial Army soldiers.
The front-line troops of the Imperial Army did not know that these alliance troops were not the elite enemy troops in the original plan, but they still used all their strength to fight against these enemy troops according to the plan.
"Prepare for a strong bow!" With the order of the imperial officer, the strong men with dense vanguards pulled out strong bows that made people sore, and behind them were rows of longbowmen.
Behind the Longbowman were thousands of catapults, and the officer opened his voice and shouted: "Look at the Longbowman and catapults!" He waved his hand and said: "Let it go!"
The longbower immediately loosened the strings, and the caster slashed the ropes. The buzzing sound of bees leaving the nest and a series of whistling sounds immediately. Arrows and gravel flew past the heads of the strong archers in the front row and fell on the heads of the Alliance Army like rainstorms.
The Alliance Army's screams echoed through the sky one after another. From a distance, the Alliance Army fell to the ground. However, compared to the entire Alliance Army, these fallen soldiers were just a drop in the bucket.
The dense alliance troops quickly blocked the vacancy. Except for the front row soldiers still raised their shields to advance, everyone else put their shields on their heads.
If it weren't for the occasional unlucky person who was hit by a stone directly or the exposed gap was hit by arrow rain, they could be said to be very safe.
The officer smiled grimly: "Strong archer, let it go!"
The strong archers who remained in the state of pulling the bow immediately let go, too lazy to care whether they shot or not, and immediately began to move their hands. Although their arms were strong, it was a bit sad to maintain the state of pulling the bow for such a long time.
The powerful metal arrow easily penetrated the shields in the front row of the Alliance Army and strung the shield hands together with the shields.
The number of people killed by this strong bow is definitely not as high as longbows and catapults, but their effect is very shocking. Just look at all the shield players in the front row of the Alliance Army fell down and you will know what happened.
Seeing the shield player fall, the strong archer fired again. This time the effect was better. The Alliance Army holding the shield was easily strung into a gourd with the robes behind him.
Of course, when the Imperial Army shot and killed the Alliance's vanguard, the Alliance's mid-range, that is, the Longbow Formation, also threw arrow rain on the Imperial Army. Countless longbow soldiers and stone throwers were shot to the ground. The Imperial Army also didn't care about these casualties at all, and continued to shoot in the shower of the arrow rain.
The two sides shot at each other in this way, but the Imperial Army defended on the spot, while the Alliance Army slowly advanced.
Except for the lack of strong bows and catapults, the Alliance Army's offensive was not inferior to that of the Imperial Army.
As for the loss of the vanguard infantry, it is essential for the attacking side. In the past, when the Imperial Army attacked and the Alliance defended, the Imperial Army rarely enjoyed the treatment of such strong bows and catapults.
I don't know what round of the attack, the archers of the Imperial Army suddenly gave up their gaps, and the Imperial infantry, which were similar to the Alliance vanguard, rushed out hula.
"Charge!" An Imperial Army Major General waved his saber with one hand and a shield with the other, and rushed forward with the first shout.
The one who led the charge was not a major general like him. Almost all the major generals of the infantry and the brigade commanders jumped out to take the charge.
When the soldiers saw the brigade commander himself taking the lead in charge, they were immediately excited and blushed with excitement, and they roared: "Kill!"
Hundreds of thousands of infantry soldiers rushed towards the slowly coming Alliance army like a tide.
The rear formation of the imperial infantry was densely packed with archers, and under the command of the officer, he collected his bow and ran and followed the infantry. Now that the infantry had charged forward, the crime of murdering friendly troops would be enough to make these archers miserable.
The Alliance Army, which was launching an attack, obviously did not expect that the Imperial Army, which was defending, would dare to charge against the counterattack. The formation paused for a moment, but then almost everyone saw dozens of major generals who were leading the charge in the team, and the Alliance soldiers immediately had their eyes red.
Although the reward for military merits of the Wilt Free Alliance is not as generous as the Ultraman Empire, the reward for killing a general is enough to make these soldiers a rich man!
The officers of the Alliance Army also noticed the hot eyes of their soldiers and yelled with a smile: "Brothers! Kill the generals of the Imperial Army for me!"
These officers were not surprised by the major general's charge. Major generals are worthless in the Yindu battlefield. Both countries even officers at the level of generals died here, not to mention generals, lieutenant generals, etc., what are the mere major generals?
Under the leadership of the major general, the Imperial Army rushed into the Alliance Army's infantry camp, and the sound of fighting immediately rang out into the sky. The upper class watching the battle from a distance between the two sides could see the strength comparison between the two sides.
Marshal Zotra touched his chin with some confusion and said, "Wilter Free Alliance's ace legion is so unbearable?"
Seeing that his side had the upper hand, a staff officer smiled happily and said, "Our Imperial Legion is also ace, and it is better than them."
However, seeing the old officers who participated in the last Silver Capital War, all of them had frown and thoughtful expressions. Knowing that they underestimated the Alliance Army, they shut up and said nothing.
"The cavalry corps with the flag of the 12th Legion has few cavalry. The 13th Legion, which is known as the strongest melee battle, was suddenly broken through by us. The performance of the remaining legions is also uncharacteristic. This..." The marshal frowned and muttered, suddenly stood up suddenly, and ordered with his eyes lit up: "Send the whole army, and the whole army will assault!"
"ah!"
When everyone heard this order, they were stunned. After making so many plans, they completely abandoned it. Although the frontal battles of millions of people could not cause any conspiracy, wouldn’t it be too insulting the wisdom of the officers who were fighting directly in the face-to-hand combat?
Wouldn’t it be a waste of time to make plans and preparations that have been hard for so long?
"The plan cannot keep up with the changes, execute the order!" The marshal glared at him, and the officers with opinions immediately went to execute the order obediently.
The Imperial Army, who was waiting on the front line, was stunned after receiving the latest order, but they were used to fighting and were still very happy to accept this order.
So, horns rang out, and the entire Imperial Army roared loudly, and millions of people rushed into the enemy camp with shouts.
In the main camp of the Wilt Free League, the Marshal of the Free League did not come to command it in person.
The supreme commander of this Silver Capital Battle was a young man with three Venus stars hanging on his shoulders, a round face, and a thirty-year-old.
His name is Ochi Jimmett.
Although he looks inconspicuous, he still has a duke. Of course, the duke in the Liberty League is not valuable, he also has a valuable one, Jimmett Merchant, which makes his net worth over 100 million gold coins.
The military system of the Wilt Free Alliance is similar to that of the Ultraman Empire, but among their officers, there are more warrant officers and captains in the lieutenant class, and there are more brigade generals and first-class generals in the general class.
The brigade general is just a Venus, most of whom serve as deputy brigades, while the first-level general is five Venus, which is equivalent to the deputy commander of the army, and the general is six.
After the soldiers, there are third-class, second-class, first-class, upper-class, upper-class, upper-class, upper-class, upper-class, upper-class, upper-class, upper-class, upper-class, upper-class, upper-class, lower-class, lower-class, and lower-class, and then the rank of corporal.
Compared with the Ultraman Empire, it took many times more time for the privates of the Wilt Free Alliance to be promoted to an officer than the Ultraman soldiers.
As for why a mere lieutenant general can command five legions, the biggest difference between the Wilt Free Alliance and the Ultraman Empire is here.
Ultraman Empire society recognized successful people as first-ranked titles, second-ranked money, second-ranked position in the army.
The recognition of successful people by the Wilt Free Alliance society is that it is the first in money, the second in title, the first in position and the second in military rank.
It is conceivable why the commander-in-chief of Ochi, the three-star lieutenant general, can command a large number of officers with four or five or six Venus stars.
"Report to the commander, our army's front has begun to collapse. Please give me instructions." An officer quickly stepped up to report to Ochi.
Aoqi played with the wine glass in his hand and said with a smile: "Let the heads of the legions fight on their own. I will take the responsibility for them."
The officer was stunned for a moment, but he still saluted and turned to convey the order.
Looking at the melee scene in the distance, Ochi smiled: "Haha, I didn't expect that the old guy from Zotra was discovered after a while. I have worked so hard to make a plan. Well, no matter what flag an ordinary soldier hangs, he can't become an elite. He can't see the appearance, and he will be clear as soon as he starts fighting.
"What a pity, if I could win by surprise, I might be able to make a fortune for my business group."
