Alien Empire Total War

The next night, the four generals gathered again. They gathered around the city defense map of the city of Ekar they brought, and discussed the mutiny plan before the departure.

Looking at the entire city defense map, you can clearly see that the 3rd, 5th, 2nd and 6th divisions led by four people are deployed in two military camps in the southeast and southwest of the city, except for these four troops of 18,000 In addition to more than a thousand soldiers, the second and seventh divisions of the Third Army and the newly recruited Eighth Division were also stationed in the barracks not far from the city.

In addition, on the map, the locations of the police station, city hall, armoury, and boot camp are also heavily circled with charcoal, indicating the importance of these locations.

"What can be determined now is that there are at least 600 police forces in the city, as well as recruits who are still training in the boot camp, and their threat to us is negligible. The most important thing is the Praetorian Guard stationed at the city hall. ."

Facing the other three comrades who were preparing to rise up together, Shipley talked eloquently: "I went to inquire during the day, and the armory was only guarded by two or three hundred soldiers dispatched by the Praetorian Guard. We have to divide our troops and attack the City Hall as the main force. Another group of soldiers will block possible retreats, and the other will attack the armory. As long as the armory is captured, we don’t have to worry about logistical issues.”

"Then there are the recruits in the boot camp. There is no doubt that they are also full of resistance to war. Finally, after occupying the training camp, we will try our best to mobilize recruits to join us and replenish our troops. We must unite this one that can take advantage of the power of."

After listening to him, the commander of the fifth division, Mires asked, "What about the second, seventh and eighth divisions? After the battle, these three units will definitely move to the city, if no one is there. Stop them, and we'll only be in a predicament of being attacked on the back and on the back."

"This is a problem, and the biggest problem we have encountered." Shipley said, his finger fell on the main road into the city, and he poked a few times, saying: "We must separate at least one division. The troops set up defensive positions on the main road into the city to block the troops coming to support, at least until we capture the city hall."

After speaking, he paused and added: "I'm afraid the strength of one division is not enough. For the sake of safety, I want to invest at least one division and Braray's second brigade."

"I'm fine." Braley agreed after thinking for a few seconds.

As soon as he finished speaking, Miris was about to speak, but saw another division commander stand up and said, "Let's leave it to the two of us. My third division has more than 6,000 soldiers, plus Brahma. Lei's more than 1,800 soldiers are almost a full division, and that's enough."

"Chapman, can you really do it?" Miris asked in a deep voice, he looked at the two at the same time, "This mission is very important, it is related to the success of this operation, and the 18,000 of the four troops. Are you sure about the lives of many soldiers?"

The two generals looked at each other, then nodded together, and said, "We will hold our ground until good news from you."

"good!"

Cipri and Miris cheered, they stood up one after another and gave a military salute to the two comrades, and then Cipri continued: "The eighth division closest to the city must be at least as fast as possible from assembly to departure. Half an hour or more, and counting the speed of their march, you have an hour of preparation."

"An hour should be enough," Chapman said.

Cipri didn't want to intervene in his command, he nodded and said, "Then Miris, let the two of us be responsible for commanding the battle in the city."

"My sixth division has more than 5,700 soldiers, and Myris' fifth division has more than 4,800 soldiers, and we are also very strong." He continued, "but the battle for the siege of the city hall will be very strong. It's a tough battle, and I'm going to concentrate the artillery of both divisions and put them into the fortified task, and I want to personally command the battle against City Hall."

As he said that, he looked at Miris and wanted to get a response from the latter. Miris nodded and agreed, saying: "I personally lead an infantry regiment to attack the armory, and after taking the armory, I will put the firearms in it. The ammunition was sent to the two battlefields to replenish the ammunition for you."

Seeing that Miris had already made up his mind, Cipri didn't talk too much. He changed the subject and said, "In order to avoid long nights, I'm going to start action tomorrow night. What's your opinion?"

"We have no problem," the three said.

When the words fell, Brigade Commander Braley of the Second Brigade thought of a question: "It's dark at night and the visibility is poor. How can we distinguish between enemy and enemy units? If two friendly forces collide and fight, it will be a big loss."

"Well..." Shipley touched his chin and said, "This is indeed a problem."

Chapman, who was standing on the side, had an idea, and he suggested: "Let the soldiers tie a piece of cloth to the right arm and set a password at the same time, so that the enemy can be identified, even if the enemy finds and follows the right arm. If they are tied with cloth, they will not be able to know the password of our army, and it will still be exposed."

This problem has also been solved, and the four of them looked at each other with smiles on their faces.

The smiles on their faces didn't last long, and soon faded, and the four were once again engaged in the perfect discussion of the plan.

...

The next day, the atmosphere in the barracks of the four troops did not become tense because of the imminent mutiny. Without telling anyone else, the soldiers were preparing for the expedition four days later.

Of course, the generals didn't just wait all the time. Under their orders, the logistics officers in the army went to the armory to get a large amount of ammunition in advance, and the officials in charge of the armory had no doubts. , after conducting routine inspections and accepting bribes from the quartermaster, he waved his hand and passed their collection.

The actions of the four troops to collect the ammunition in advance did not attract the attention of others. The only person who cared a little was the responsible official. Go, but quickly put it out of your head.

In the afternoon of the same day, the four troops ordered to close the camp on the grounds of preparation for the battle, and prohibited entry and exit, so that the soldiers could rest early and recharge their batteries for the night battle.

The soldiers talked a lot about this, wondering why they were allowed to rest during the day for the first time in the world. Some people ran to ask the officers, but the answer was that even the officers did not know.

No matter how puzzled they were, the soldiers still obediently went to sleep early.
