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

Hildy Kingdom, Whitney Region.

This is the largest agricultural grain-producing area in the Hildi Kingdom. It provides nearly 36% of the country's grain storage and agricultural tax to the center of the kingdom every year. Standing on a higher ground, you can see the surrounding farmland. Boundless green, what a thriving scene.

However, with the outbreak of the war, most of the farmland in the Whitney region was abandoned and overgrown with weeds, robbing the stubborn crops for nutrients. The local residents also fled to other areas in fear of the war and defected to their relatives. Or simply become refugees with nowhere to settle.

This place has also become one of the frontal battlefields of the Hildi coalition and the Rumen army. The second army of the Hildi kingdom and some mercenaries are deployed here to build a defense line and resist the Rumen people's pace northward. In front of them It was the Fourth Army of the Lumont Army, which was Charlie's direct army, and it was the most elite army in the country in terms of equipment and personnel.

Although the Fourth Army is the ace troop in the Lumont Army, the Second Army, which has been in the limelight since the outbreak of the war, is a well-deserved ace troop in the eyes of the Hildi people, so the Second Division is deployed in the main attack direction. Instead of focusing heavily on defense, this gave the Fourth Army a chance to break through.

The southern city of Langtontell in the Whitney region became the headquarters of the Fourth Army after it was occupied by the Fourth Army. In the city hall, the Fourth Army commander General Greney Baldwin He and his staff and generals gathered around a long table covered with a military map. After a closer look, there were some gadgets on the map to represent the locations of the enemy and our army.

Holding a baton in Reni Baldwin's hand, he pointed to the main positions of the Greek army marked on the map after the scout's investigation report, and said, "It is all thanks to the excellent performance of the Second Army that the enemy will be ahead of the pack. We lost a lot of troops in the battle, and it also attracted the attention of the enemy, but instead gave us a chance to beat the enemy by surprise."

"The commander of the Second Greek Army opposite us is also a veteran, Earl Arianne Rollins, who had defeated our friendly army in the battle four years ago. This is not a good deal to deal with. opponents, so we have to be careful.”

"The main forces of the enemy are deployed on the main road leading to Whitney, the capital of the Whitney region. This main road is surrounded by a vast farmland, which benefits from the terrain of the Whitney region. We don't have to worry about it. Terrain has an impact on the fight because it's fair to both of us."

"General, our cavalry division can also play a great role here," a staff officer mentioned.

The cavalry divisions in his mouth are the 1st cavalry division formed by Charlie and the 2nd and 3rd cavalry divisions that were formed later. Among these three cavalry divisions, except for the first division, which also has hussars and lancers, the rest are all cavalry divisions. The combination of cuirassiers and dragoons.

"Yes, fortunately, the enemy's cavalry divisions have all been transferred, so the only cavalry we will face next are the Lancers composed of the Antanians they hired." Baldwin nodded, said.

The Antarian Lancers are the more famous cavalry on the Marnes continent. Although the Antarians completed feudalization centuries ago, they still maintain the tradition of cavalry. It can be said that every Aner The Tanyas were all excellent cavalrymen.

Although the Anriania lancers were famous for their viciousness, Baldwin was not worried about this. The Greek army hired only more than 1,300 cavalrymen, and the cavalry divisions under his command totaled more than 8,000 people, several times the number of cavalry divisions under his command. The gap can kill them even with human sea tactics.

Baldwin coughed lightly and brought the topic back again, saying: "The Greek army dug several trenches on their positions, filled bags with soil and piled them into chest-level bunkers, and deployed another one at intervals. Infantry artillery. Their preparations can be described as comprehensive, even if our army is fully equipped with rifled guns, it is not an easy task to conquer the enemy's defense line."

"In terms of artillery, our artillery is more than the enemy's, and the artillery is better than the enemy. We can completely destroy the artillery deployed in its defense line with artillery, reduce the threat, and then launch an attack." Another staff officer suggested.

"The Brigade Howitzer Regiment of the 7th Brigade can also play a good role." Lawrence, commander of the 7th Brigade who attended the meeting, said, "The howitzer can cross the obstacles and hit the enemy hiding behind, and the power of the explosive bomb cannot be underestimated. Look, there is a precedent in the previous battle of Nawa Mountain."

Baldwin nodded and agreed: "What I mean is this, first focus the artillery to launch artillery fire on the enemy's position, and then use the cavalry as the vanguard to open the way after the enemy's position is blown up, and the infantry will follow up, tearing open the enemy's position in one battle. main base."

After a pause, he added: "The enemy's troops deployed on other fronts will not watch us break through, and will definitely split up for reinforcements, so the troops in charge of other fronts must bite the enemy in front of them and prevent them from letting them. There is an opportunity for reinforcements"

When his words fell, everyone in the conference room agreed aloud, and then they looked at Baldwin eagerly, waiting for him to distribute the offensive task. The eyes of the division commanders at the same time involuntarily glanced at Lawrence, the seventh brigade commander, who was the president. 's direct line of troops, almost every time they can grab the top score, if nothing else~www.readwn.com~ This time they should also be the main attackers.

Sure enough, after Baldwin distributed the offensive task, the task of launching the main attack fell again on the 7th Brigade and the 1st Division. After the shelling ended, the 1st Cavalry Division was also selected as the vanguard, and the other divisions received feints respectively. and other tasks.

In addition to regret, the teachers have no resentment or jealousy. The reason why the seventh brigade is the main attack has been stated at the meeting just now, and the status of the president's direct line will not be their smooth sailing. Goldfinger, the most important thing is the Brigade Howitzer Regiment owned by the Seventh Brigade.

As the only well-established howitzer regiment, the seventh brigade does not serve as the main attack, who else can be the main attack?

However, the highlight moment of the Seventh Brigade will soon pass, because after the outbreak of the war, Charlie and the War Department have received many requests to be assigned to an organic howitzer regiment. During the attack, the existing sporadic howitzers in the army It is no longer possible to meet the firepower requirements, and it has become the hope of many division commanders to assign an organized howitzer regiment to each division.

For the requests of the division commanders, Charlie also wanted to satisfy them as much as possible, so the domestic armament factory upgraded from the artillery foundry was put into operation again and began to manufacture 7-pounder howitzers with all their might.
