Alien Empire Total War

, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the total war of the alien empire!

"Stop! Stop moving!"

"I'm a soldier at Elok Post, emergency military situation!"

The 7th Infantry Regiment of the 5th Division of the 2nd Army of the Hildi Kingdom was stationed. Two soldiers in green uniforms looked at the soldier who rushed into the camp on a fast horse. There was a lot of unease.

Emergency military situation!

The emergency military information from the border post, apart from the Lumen people declaring war on them, what else can be called emergency military information?

The knight who broke into the camp did not know the thoughts of the two soldiers behind him. He kept whipping the horse and shouted: "Emergency military situation! Emergency military situation!" Then, under the avoidance of the soldiers in the camp, he ran to the main hall in the center of the camp. The tent, he didn't have time to stop the horse, he jumped off the horse and almost fell, the guards guarding the main tent quickly stepped forward to support him.

"What happened?" one of the guards asked.

"War! The Lumontese are at war!"

The knight shouted in horror, and the guard who supported him quickly let go after hearing the words, and let the knight enter the main tent to report the military situation.

At the same time, the 2nd Cavalry Division of the 2nd Army of the Republic of Rumont, which maintained high mobility, also killed the perimeter of the 7th Infantry Regiment along the route of the knight. Soldiers spotted them and sounded the alarm.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

With the rapid warning bell, the entire infantry regiment was in chaos. The soldiers cruising in the camp quickly rushed back to their tents to get weapons, and then went to the quartermaster to collect ammunition. The soldiers near the gate of the camp worked together to drag the resisting horses to the middle of the road, and then closed the gate. After that, they climbed the wooden wall one after another, relying on the defense of the wooden wall to look at the rapidly approaching enemy cavalry in the distance.

Looking at the army composed of thousands of cavalry, the faces of the soldiers who climbed up the wooden wall to participate in the defense one after another showed solemn expressions. Everyone knew that the cavalry division in front of them was only the forward of the Lumen people, and it must be behind the cavalry division. There will be a larger number of infantry, how could the 2,000-strong seventh regiment be able to stop the enemy's attack?

After the enemy approached, when the Greek soldiers saw the artillery that was pulled by a carriage, the expressions on their faces undoubtedly became more difficult to look at. If the enemy was composed of pure cavalry, they would feel much more relaxed. No matter how powerful the cavalry was, they couldn't break through their wooden walls, but after they carried cavalry guns, their only recourse was gone.

What's more deadly is that the seventh regiment is not equipped with artillery!

Even after the artillery manufacturing competition with the Rumont Republic two years ago, the Hildi army did not effectively assign the artillery to the infantry regiment level, but was incorporated into the division-affiliated brigade artillery regiment for operations.

From the perspective of the senior cabinet of Hildi Kingdom, there is no need to assign artillery to the regiment level, which will only increase the pressure on logistics.

"Stop moving forward!"

"Unload the artillery and prepare for the bombardment."

Looking at the infantry camp surrounded by wooden walls on the opposite side, Keith Neville, the commander of the 2nd Cavalry Division, gave orders in an orderly manner. After his orders were delivered by the messengers, the 6-pound cavalry guns attached to the division were immediately placed on the gunners. Unloaded from the wagon under their control, these 6-pounder cavalry guns were the only cavalry guns that Charlie could recruit through the system.

The advantage of these cavalry guns is that they are light and fast. The artillerymen in each artillery team are equipped with a warhorse, so that they can move with the guns on horseback, unlike their counterparts in the infantry guns who can only forcefully follow behind the artillery.

Brigadier General Neville looked at the wooden wall that was gradually standing. It was not unrealistic to rely on his cavalry to destroy the infantry group in front of him. As long as the artillery knocked down the wooden wall in front of them, the cavalry could rush through the gap went in.

In his 2nd Cavalry Division, except for the cuirassiers, which had undergone a large-scale replacement in the past year, the rest were dragoons armed with carbines. The dragoons could shoot at the enemy infantry on horseback, and then draw their sabres to attack the enemy infantry. The enemy launched a charge, and a salvo shot before the charge usually disrupted the formation of the enemy infantry.

In addition, the cavalry division, because of its necessary mobility, did not follow the principle of assigning artillery to the regiment level promulgated by the War Department, but took a second step and assigned artillery to the brigade level (or division level if there was no brigade). , The Second Cavalry Division has three brigades, and the total number of artillery pieces of the entire division is twenty-four.

When Brigadier General Neville was thinking, the twenty-four 6-pounder cavalry guns attached to the division had been deployed, and the artillerymen were loading, adjusting and shooting Zhu Yuan, aiming at the opposite wooden wall.

"fire!"

Rumble-

White gunpowder smoke rose from the front of the artillery position. Twenty-four black artillery shells rushed out of the smoke and smashed into the Greek army camp a few hundred meters away. Because it was the first round of test firing, less than half of these shells hit In the middle of the wooden wall, or fly directly over the wooden wall into the camp, smashing over a tent.

The wooden wall surrounding the camp was not thick. After being hit by a solid bullet, a large hole was smashed, and the soldiers hiding behind were also affected. Running through the flesh and blood of the infantry, even if it was just touched, a large piece of flesh and blood would be scraped away.

Despite the inaccuracy, this first salvo took the lives of dozens of soldiers, and the officers quickly ordered the soldiers to leave the wooden wall and line up in the clearing behind the wooden wall.

Seeing this scene~www.readwn.com~ Neville suddenly thought of something, he immediately ordered to stop shooting, the artillery was reloaded, the whole division continued to advance 100 meters, and then set up a battle at a distance of about 200 meters, unloading the truck shooting.

This is the sadness of not having the artillery countermeasure capability. The Greek army huddled in the camp can only watch the enemy struttingly advance to 200 meters away to shoot in array. This time the distance is indented, and the artillery threat they bring also As it increases, the solid bullets that are shot will continue to fly forward without reducing the kinetic energy after penetrating the wooden wall, killing the lines arrayed behind the wooden wall.

Soon, the wooden wall between the cavalry and the infantry was finally collapsed by artillery for several sections, but Brigadier General Neville did not rush to order an attack, but continued to advance the artillery for 100 meters, and turned to use shotguns to bombard the gap. ...

Good guy, Neville really played the artillery advantage!

After a few shots, the Greek infantry lined up behind the gap fell to the ground by the cannonballs, and the soldiers around were also disturbed. At this time, Neville finally ordered an attack. Dragoons in fancy costumes and cuirassiers in cuirass drove their horses and marched toward the gap in squadrons.

Although the two sides have not yet faced the enemy, Neville has been able to foresee the victory in the near future!
