Alien Empire Total War

On the evening of November 11 in the mainland calendar, the siege against the remnants of the Enkelan First Army finally came to an end.

After the failure of the second wave of offensive, the first and second divisions of the En army had no chance to launch a new wave of offensive. Soon after, the imperial army chasing up from behind blocked their back road and ordered them to Trapped in the predicament of the enemy.

The morale of the 1st and 2nd divisions of the En army had already dropped to the bottom under the influence of several debuffs such as being surrounded and attacked. Both divisions were routed, and a catastrophic rout unfolded on the battlefield.

Seeing that the defeat was set and the front-line troops were routed, Ramsey, the commander of the first division of the En army, put the pistol to his chin without hesitation, pulled the trigger, and committed suicide. He chose to resist Rubio, the commander of the second division, together with him. However, he did not have the kind of determination and belief to die. He looked at the corpse of his colleague who committed suicide, but still could not make up his mind to follow to die, and finally took the initiative to order his subordinates to lay down their weapons and surrender to the imperial army.

…

"The battle is finally over, and we should be able to rest for a while."

Looking at the battlefield full of corpses, Captain Arpad Paley held the hilt of the saber inserted in the scabbard at his waist with one hand, and said with some relief, beside him, Lange, who was promoted to lieutenant Nodding in agreement, the young lieutenant's face was blackened by smoke, like a tabby cat.

The two have survived since the outbreak of the southern battlefield, and Lange has grown from a ignorant recruit who still wets his pants on the battlefield to a qualified lieutenant officer. Now he sees those new recruits who have come in. At times, he occasionally lamented his unbearable performance on the battlefield.

At this moment, a group of prisoners of war were passed by several heavily armed Imperial soldiers. Those Enkelan prisoners of war were all downcast, their hands tied with ropes, one after another, so embarrassed, Paley. Looking at them, I couldn't help but compare them with the captives of Enkelan who surrendered. They were all captives, and they were obviously treated better than them when they surrendered.

boom-

A sudden gunshot interrupted Paley's thoughts. He and Lange subconsciously looked in the direction of the gunshot. He thought it was a soldier who accidentally let the gun he picked up while cleaning the battlefield go off, but he didn't expect it. , It was a soldier not far from them who opened fire, killing a prisoner of war who was pulled out alone and on his knees.

Paley and Lange looked at each other, then strode forward, and when they reached a few meters away, Paley shouted and asked, "What are you doing? Who gave you orders to shoot prisoners of war without authorization?"

The soldiers who were asked by him did not show any guilty conscience, and the soldier closest to him first confirmed Paley's rank with the light from the torches, and then saluted him and said, "Captain, we The general has previously issued an order that all prisoners of war with branding on their bodies will be shot on the spot, which is the proof that they have been captured by us."

As he said that, he pointed to the black brand on the arm of the prisoner of war who was shot. Paley took a closer look, and the brand did exist.

After thinking about it, Paley asked, "Which army are you from?"

"Report to Captain, we are from the Seventh Division of the Fourth Army," the soldier replied.

Hearing that the other party was from the Fourth Army, Palai couldn't help but feel a sense of closeness in his heart. He said, "I am also from the Fourth Army, and I am from the Tenth Division. I heard that the enemy's First Army can be surrounded and wiped out. All three divisions have made great contributions."

Seeing that the captain in front of him was also his own, the soldiers let go a lot and started talking with Palai. Kneeling on the ground, he was shot by soldiers from behind.

Those prisoners of war who were pulled out of the queue were indeed prisoners who had been previously released by the three divisions of the Fourth Army, but they still chose to return to the army. After they were captured again, they had to make mistakes for themselves. The decision pays a price—as Hernan Parker, commander of the 7th Division, said that if they were captured again, they would be shot dead on the spot.

…

The bad news of the annihilation of the First Army of Enkelan was soon sent back to Enkelans City, the capital of the Republic of Enkelans, and caused another uproar in the city—this was a distance from the last shock caused by the defeat of the Second Army. The interval between them is less than a month.

In less than a month, two legions were severely damaged, and one of them was even wiped out, which caused a feeling of pessimism in the hearts of many Enkelans, and was full of fear for the imperial army. .

Those are two legions. There are more than 100,000 soldiers in total. Even 100,000 pigs cannot be defeated in less than a month. Among them, 50,000 or 60,000 are even wiped out. prisoner of death.

The fiasco of the two consecutive armies also curbed the wave of Enklan's enthusiasm for joining the army, and made those who had not had time to sign up to retreat, no longer muttering about joining the army.

In the national parliament of Enkelan, the Lord Peace faction also quietly raised its head after two fiascoes. The members of the Lord Peace faction demanded to send envoys to negotiate peace with the Borsland Empire immediately. I apologize for the act of provoking the war before, and make compensation, and only hope that the war can be stopped now.

The members of the Lord Harmony faction knew very well in their hearts that the predecessor of the Borsland Empire, the Rumen Republic was no match for the Enklan Republic, and now the Rumen Republic has annexed the northern part of the country. The Hildi Kingdom, which merged into the more populous and powerful Borsland Empire, compared to the Enkland Republic, can almost be described as a mouse versus an elephant.

With such a large gap in strength between the two sides, if the war continues, the powerful army of the Borslan Empire will likely hit directly outside the city of Enkrans, and even if they have an advantageous navy, they will have an impact on the war situation. Without any help, after the enemy's army came to the city, the new emperor of Ankerton wanted to incorporate the Enkelan Republic into his empire's territory, and there was no one who could oppose it.

The demands of the Lord Peace faction were not suppressed in the parliament, because the war had progressed to this point, and most of the members in the parliament had seen the situation clearly and were willing to send envoys to try to make peace with the enemy. At this time, they were still shouting. If you continue to fight, your brain will be sick.

However, the enclave's request for peace was unquestionably rejected, and their messengers were thrown out without even stepping into the camp of the imperial army, but the messengers also brought back a terrifying sight to the council. Reply -

"The war will never end unless the Republic of Enkland is fully incorporated into the Empire's borders."
