Alien Empire Total War

Chapter 206: new plan

The cooperation of the 2nd Division and the 1st Cuirassier Division successfully took the position of the 4th Division of Enkelan, defeated the enemy troops stationed here, and captured the only nearby hill that can be called a commanding height. .

Not long after they sent the good news back to the headquarters, the third division, which also shouldered the main task of attacking, also came back with good news of defeating the enemy. Many of its internal members are veterans who have retired from the front line, but it is only a little trickier.

Under the joint attack of the 3rd and 2nd Dragoon Divisions, the 8th Division of the enemy was defeated without incident. The infantry of the 3rd Division continued to advance behind the dragoons while capturing the defeated soldiers. Go to the enemy frontline supply station not far from here, and prepare to set up a defense line around the supply station.

The same is true of the second division that captured the hills. They did not pursue the fleeing Enkelans soldiers, but entrusted the task to the fighting cuirassiers. The infantrymen gathered the captured enemy soldiers to watch. The position, which had been devastated by artillery fire, was then re-fortified.

The artillerymen of the divisions in the rear were also transported to the hills after the artillery was loaded, and artillery positions were set up on the top of the hills. The second division's division commander, Vesto Ackerman, and his adjutants and staff headed to the hills first. After walking up the hill, they were able to see the entire encampment of the Fourth Division of Enkelan built on the back of the hill. The camp of thousands of people could almost be described as spreading for several miles. The remaining guards raised their guns to resist, and non-combatants fled the camp screaming.

There are not only fully-armed soldiers in a camp, but also non-combatants like military doctors, laborers, craftsmen, etc., but they usually stay in the camp all the time and will not take the initiative to participate in the battle - they are not good at fighting. , after encountering the enemy, in addition to fleeing, the only option is to surrender.

"General, do we just have to wait?"

The adjutant, who was standing half a step behind him, asked, their eyes were on the cuirassiers who rushed into the enemy camp. The camp guards rushed forward, and after a panicked shot at them, the guards hurriedly turned and fled, only to be chased by the cavalry and chopped over from behind.

"Wait for the response from the headquarters. I have already handed in the new battle plan and the good news. As long as the follow-up troops come to take over this position, we can proceed with the next plan."

The rout speed of the enemy's 4th Division exceeded Ackerman and other officers' expectations. Before formulating the battle plan, they thought that the 4th Division would hold on until their reinforcements arrived, and overestimated the enemy's will to resist. Now it seems that their reinforcements will not be able to arrive in a while, so Ackerman has a new plan, that is to hand over the position to the follow-up troops, they will attack the north and attack the enemy from the side and rear. The enemy line of defense in the middle.

This plan requires the permission of the general headquarters to execute, and if possible, he also wants the third army to act together, attacking from three sides, and can completely annihilate the surrounded enemy forces.

Soon, Ackerman's plan was approved by the two commanders. Victor and Warren were not the kind of stubborn commanders who didn't understand flexibility. They unanimously agreed with Ackerman's plan and dispatched The reserve team that did not participate in the battle went to take over the positions of the second and third divisions, and at the same time sent the order to the third division commander, asking the latter to set off immediately after meeting with the receiving troops.

At the same time, the attacked Second Army headquarters in Enkland also received bad news from the front. The Second Army Commander Randall Lyman looked at the military map on the table and combined the fallen two The enemy's purpose was immediately guessed at the position: the enemy's full-line attack is probably just an illusion, their real purpose is to take down the two positions that have been captured, otherwise the Lumen people will only invest in these two battlefields. The cavalry unit is too abnormal.

He looked again at what was special about these two positions compared to other places, and soon, he discovered the clues.

Frontline Supply Station!

The rear of the Eighth Division's position is the front-line supply station that provides supplies to nearby troops. There is a large amount of supplies such as ammunition, parts and food stored there. If the supply station is captured, the nearby troops will be in a situation of supply difficulties!

Not only that, but he also realized the special features of the fourth division's station. The hill where the fourth division was stationed was a place with higher terrain nearby. After winning the place, the Lumeng people also occupied the terrain advantage.

Leiman was not in a hurry to send a reserve team to retake the occupied positions. He frowned at the two positions, thinking about what to do next. The lieutenant beside him also frowned, looking at the map, he suddenly shouted A sound interrupted Lyman's thoughts.

"What are you calling?" Ryman reprimanded in dissatisfaction, "Fizzy, and doesn't look like an officer at all!"

"No, General, look, are the two occupied positions sandwiching the positions of the 6th Division and the 1st Brigade?" The adjutant said anxiously, "If the Lumeng people choose to cooperate with the front from the side and the rear? The troops attacked them, and these two troops are likely to be annihilated!"

As soon as the adjutant reminded him, Laiman also noticed this. He stared at the gap that echoed the south and the north in astonishment, and the cold sweat broke down immediately.

"Not good!" he exclaimed, "Messenger, let the messenger send the order to retreat to the front!"

The adjutant responded and was about to turn around and run out, but before he could run a few steps, Lyman stopped him.

"Let the 10th and 11th Divisions in reserve go to meet up~www.readwn.com~ The 1st Hussar Division and the 2nd Lancer Division set off first, I have a feeling of unease, and this feeling of unease comes from Lumon Human cavalry."

"As ordered, General."

The lieutenant also knew the seriousness of the matter. After he responded, he strode out of the headquarters and conveyed Lyman's order.

The Republic of Enkelland is located on the southern coast. There are not many horses here. Coupled with the widespread promotion of firearms, they have not developed cavalry units. They only have one or two cavalry divisions in each army.

Because of this, their cavalry units were not very effective in combat. Lehmann sent out his cavalry divisions just to offset part of the threat of Lumont's cavalry and to delay the retreat of his infantry divisions. He didn't think he was weak. The cavalry can beat each other - unless they are truly blessed by the Holy Spirit.

He also did not dare to send troops from other fronts for reinforcements. He feared that once the troops were dispersed, those feigning enemies would soon turn into strong ones.
