Alien Empire Total War

The position of the Second Division of the Imperial Army.

Looking at the brigade of infantry coming from the rear, division commander Vesto Ackerman had a look of joy on his face. He ordered the deputy generals and staff next to him: "Assemble the team and prepare to go!"

"Yes, General!"

A few seconds later, the bugle player blew the assembly horn, and the soldiers who were sitting on the ground to rest and replenish their strength stood up one after another, entered their respective teams with the shouts of the officers, and quickly formed a neat queue one by one. The cavalry of the 1st Cuirassier Division also turned on their horses, and their division commander ran over and asked Ackerman:

"General Ackerman, are you going?"

"Get ready to go, General Brennan." Ackerman nodded. "You will go first, and we will follow."

"Okay." El Brennan, the commander of the 1st Cuirassier Division, agreed, and rode back to his position, leading the cavalry who were still bloodied to march north.

The infantrymen of the second division also started to march, they did not take away the artillery that had been unloaded, so the infantrymen walked down the hills from Ackerman and the others in an orderly manner, followed behind the cavalry, At this moment, the division commander of the 9th Division of the Fifth Army who came to take over their positions also came to them and gave Ackerman a military salute, saying:

"Commander Ackerman, I am Toby Topland, Commander of the Ninth Division, and I have been ordered to take over your position."

"General Topland, the artillery of my division will stay here to assist you. I hope you will make good use of them." Ackerman also returned a military salute and said with a smile.

"Of course, don't worry," Topland said.

"Then let's go." Ackerman said, and then led the adjutants and staff to follow the marching infantry. After they left, Commander Topland ordered his subordinates to take over the troops established in Enke. A new position outside the Lan Barracks - this barracks will become the new camp for the Imperial Army when it falls into their hands.

On the other hand, although there was no common agreement, both the 3rd and 2nd Dragoon Divisions also made the same decision. The cavalry would open the way first, and the infantry would follow. The 6th Division of Enkelan and the rear of the 1st Brigade flanked the past, the latter had no idea about it, and their attention was all on the enemy who was constantly attacking in front of them.

One side feigned the attack, and the other side tried their best to resist, but they were evenly matched. The recruits hiding behind the trenches and parapets couldn't help but feel contempt for those veterans in the army. Before the war, the veterans had been preaching. How terrifying the Lumeng people are and how invincible they are, but now it seems that it is nothing more than that!

The commander of the 6th Division of the 2nd Army had experienced Bewen's great escape. He looked at the uncharacteristic enemy in front of him. He was also puzzled by the second monk. He was still wondering why the enemy's attack was so weak today. At this moment, the frontline command where he was staying suddenly broke into a messenger.

The messenger was panting and didn't care to wipe the sweat from his forehead. He handed the order in his hand to the adjutant with a shocked expression, and said, "General Leiman's order, please withdraw immediately!"

"Withdraw the army? Why withdraw?" Harper, the commander of the sixth division, asked suspiciously, while taking the order from the adjutant, he took off the red wax on it, took out the letter inside and checked it. After tens of seconds, his face appeared on his face. His expression was immediately replaced by the adjutant's stunned expression.

Immediately afterwards, he ordered in a hurried tone: "Quick, convey the order to withdraw the troops, and inform Brigadier General Mayne of the First Brigade by the way!"

"Ah? Yes!"

The adjutant was a little confused by his attitude, and he didn't bother to ask what happened. He ran out of the headquarters quickly. Harper then looked at the messenger and asked, "When will the reinforcements come?"

"Already on the way. The 1st Hussars and 2nd Lancers departed shortly behind me, and if nothing else, they will be there soon."

"Damn it." Harper slammed his fist on the marching table. After learning that the friendly forces on his left and right flanks had been routed, he was so shocked that he almost lost his soul, especially when he learned that the enemy army was likely to be in After breaking through the flanks and attacking them, he was even more afraid.

The order to retreat was quickly announced, and the soldiers still in the trenches listened to the sudden retreat order. The order to withdraw was not informed of the reason.

Although they didn't know the reason for the retreat, they still took up their weapons and withdrew from the position in an orderly manner. The Fifth Division of the Empire, which was still feinting, had already received the order from above. They also knew what was going on. Retreat, do not rush to pursue, deliberately slow down, take a break by the way, and give the enemy time to retreat.

Harper and the others did not know that the reinforcements they were waiting for were intercepted on the way. More than 5,000 cavalrymen from the 1st Hussar Division and the 2nd Lancer Division were halfway along with the faster 1st Cuirassier Division. Encountered, the battle between the two sides was about to break out. Even if the enemy was nearly twice as many as his own, Brennan and his cuirassiers were still not afraid and bravely charged against the enemy.

Compared with the Enklan cavalry, the cuirassiers wear half-body breastplates that can defend against bullets. The defense is incomparable to the cloth uniforms worn by the Enklan cavalry. After entering the age of firearms, Enk The Lan army completely abandoned the armor, which was useless on the battlefield. In their opinion, the armor could not defend against bullets, and would only become a burden on the soldiers. There was no need to spend the unjustly expensive production.

The Enklan cavalry was not clear about this, but they tried to repel the enemy by relying on their numerical superiority. After seeing the imperial cavalry take the initiative to charge, the Enklan cavalry of the two divisions also launched a counter-charge!

"Destroy those arrogant Rumont chops!"

"Crush them!"

The Enkelan cavalry shouted various slogans~www.readwn.com~ As they ran, they gradually formed a formation like a pocket, intending to swallow the imperial cavalry in their stomachs. The cuirassiers were not afraid, and rushed into about After a distance of fifty meters, they suddenly increased their speed and slammed into the enemy with all their strength!

"For the Emperor!"

The cuirassiers roared and crashed into the enemy's army. After the two armies collided and crossed, they turned their horses on their backs, and countless knights fell off their horses like dumplings.

The cuirassiers held high sharp sabres and easily cut the thin uniforms on the Enklan cavalry, leaving a ferocious **** wound. , slid away by the smooth surface of the armor - the advantages and disadvantages of armored and unarmored are undoubtedly revealed at this moment, the cuirassiers can slaughter the enemy with impunity, but the Enkelans can only cause damage by attacking the limbs and neck of the enemy .

This does not mean that their attacks are ineffective. When the two armies are charging, the lances pierced by the lancers can still pierce the armor of the enemy with a huge impact and knock them off their horses. It was also the main reason for the casualties of the cuirassiers in the early days of the battle between the two armies.
