Roman Empire of Total War

Death can solve all problems, no one will have no problems.

——Stalin (one of the important leaders of the former Soviet Union)

The temperature generated by the burning of fire oil is high enough to burn steel into molten iron, and ordinary city wall masonry will be burned to ash under such a fire; the reason why McGovern has no such worries is because he defends this The fortress barracks are specially constructed.

Bai Feng, who had considered a series of problems such as the use of fire oil at the beginning of the construction, sought help from the Westminster Chamber of Commerce when building four fortress-style barracks; Duke dedicated himself to finding the sunset for Bai Feng. Fire protection technology used in the fortress.

Therefore, from the perspective of fire prevention only, the fortress-style barracks stationed by the 45th Corps is not inferior to the strongest military fortress on the continent; the only way for the soldiers of the 45th Corps to be bold The use of kerosene.

The sea of ​​lilac flames formed by three thousand barrels of kerosene burned for more than six hours outside the wall of the military camp; except for the screams of the first ten minutes, there was no screams on the huge battlefield, because All orcs close to the city wall have been burned to death.

Even with the fire protection technology of the sunset fortress, the two walls on the edge of the sea of ​​fire are still red hot; the soldiers of the Second Division who can’t even get close to the walls can only use the wells in the camp after the fire is extinguished at night Slowly draw water to cool the city walls.

The first day of the orc army's attack ended in a fire; the defending soldiers who had not yet engaged in a head-to-head combat with the orcs, relying on their own advanced equipment and equipment, wiped out thousands of orc warriors in one battle. It's untouched.

After nightfall, the six brigades of the Second Division today remained in the camp, and the other six brigades were patrolled on the city wall to guard the night; McGonagall took the main officers under his command. , Went to the headquarters of the regiment leader.

McGovern’s second division left a coalition captain on the city wall to command the night watch patrol, as did Lennon’s first division; as a result, there were only sixteen generals participating in the proceedings tonight.

In addition to the division heads of the two divisions and their subordinate eight captains, the Eastern Crossbow Commander, Ballista Commander, and Archer Commander assigned to the two divisions were also ordered to the headquarters.

Seeing that the people had arrived, Assassis first asked Lennon, the head of the first division sitting at the bottom right of him, and asked, "Lennon, how is the situation of your first division today? How much is left?"

"General, our first division repulsed the orcs three times today and killed no fewer than 4,000 orcs. They killed 272 soldiers and killed more than 300 soldiers. You can restore your combat effectiveness by training for a day or two."

"In terms of materials, our division today used 1,500 barrels of kerosene and 240 enchanted giant arrows. Steel arrows, rolling stones, sapwood, giant arrows, rockets and other materials were also consumed enormously. The estimated supplies are only enough for seven days."

"Is it only seven days?" Asasis, who frowned suddenly, turned to McGovern and asked, "McGeven, how about you?"

"General, our Second Division killed about six thousand orcs today. Although there were no casualties, we consumed a lot of supplies. In today’s World War I used three thousand barrels of fire oil and three hundred enchanted giant arrows. The remaining supplies may only be enough for four or five days."

"No, absolutely not!" Assassis stood up impatiently, and said in a harsh tone: "Fire oil and enchanted giant arrows can never be used like this! Don't you know how many orc forces outside the camp? All supplies must be Control use!"

"General, it's not that we don't want to control the use of materials, but that the orc's offensive is too fierce; if we don't use a lot of fire oil and enchanted giant arrows, our soldiers will be killed and injured." McGovern explained helplessly.

"This is a war, how can there be no casualties? To reduce the casualties of your subordinates as much as possible, that is what the captain and the coalition captain should do; the commander of your division should consider how to keep this military camp as long as possible, No other!"

After reprimanding McGovern, the still-faced Assassis directly ordered: "From tomorrow on, your two divisions can only use up to one hundred enchanted giant arrows and five hundred barrels of kerosene, and other materials every day. Also control the use, I will add to you after ten days."

"No!" Lennon and McGovern could only accept the order with a bitter face.

A hundred enchanted giant arrows and 500 barrels of kerosene sound a lot, but what is enough? One hundred enchanted giant arrows are enough for the Eastern Crossbow to fire for two rounds. Five hundred barrels of fire oil can't even organize a large-scale fire attack. It can only be said to play some auxiliary role of blocking the orc's attack.

The sea of ​​flames formed by the pouring of three thousand barrels of kerosene can extinguish the ashes of two or three thousand orc warriors at once, which can make the orc army's one-day offensive come to an end. By comparison, 500 barrels of kerosene The effect is somewhat pitiful.

Knowing that Lennon and McGovern must be dissatisfied, Assassius explained: "I know that you can't bear the soldiers under your command, but this is a war between races, except for fighting to the last minute, We have no other choice."

"Think about the Eastern provinces behind us, where there are no natural dangers to defend and no strongholds to defend from. We must fight for as much time as possible here, so that General Lister can build more troops and help the Empire. You can come to the East."

"General, we understand." McGovern stood up, his voice low but clanging powerfully: "After the last war, and seeing the brutal orcs of our generals, we will not let the tragedy happen again, even if this It takes us to give our lives!"

"I hope each of you is ready to die here, because we are both the first and last line of defense in the Eastern Provinces!" Assassis solemnly said: "Our 45th Army, To coexist and die with this military camp!"

"Pledge to co-exist with the barracks!" All the commanders in the headquarters stood up and straightened their waists.

The meeting was held until near midnight. After the meeting, the commanders returned to their camps, and Assassis brought his general guard to the warehouse in the camp; then, he left the general guard in the warehouse. Outside, a man walked into the warehouse.

"Hades, I didn't expect you to come to supply us personally this time."

"You are already tightly enclosed by the orc's wolf cavalry. No one else can get in. I can only get out of here."

"How is the rear now? How many troops are gathered on the front line of Meng Dan, and how long will it take to come to support us?"

"The imperial capital sent two royal legions and eight standing legions, but they are still on the road, and it is estimated that they will be there next month; Bro Yangsong has sent us 100,000 reinforcements, which are weapons that are too weak. The equipment is not good enough, not even the cannon fodder.
