Roman Empire of Total War

People can deceive others, but they cannot deceive themselves.

——Kanagawa Ryusuke (Japanese novelist)

"General Dietrich, there are only more than 11,000 warriors left in your ministry, but the Deman army jammed in front of your ministry has 13,000 soldiers waiting for their work, and they have five behind them. Qian Jingqi and 7000 infantry are approaching quickly; the strength of the two of you is quite different. We still suggest that you give up the idea of ​​head-on combat and go south to bypass the German army before continuing to withdraw east."

After the elders of the Dragon Headquarters got the latest information from the Demands sent to him by the Demands, they found the Dessau commander Dietrich and began to persuade Dietrich to give up fighting with the Germans who intercepted them. Compared with the De Shao army fighting alone, the Deman army that the reinforcements are rushing to do has indeed a great advantage. This is an unfair contest.

Of course, the reason why the people of the Dark Council care so much about the survival of the Dessau Army is not because they really care about the Dessau Army, but because of their agreement between the Dark Council and the Dragon Empire. It was delivered to the Bryant area safely; in order to do this well, the Dark Council had already paid a great price, and they did not want to give up their efforts when they came to the door.

Faced with the persuasion of the elders of the Tianlong headquarters, Dietrich did not directly reject it. He just analyzed the matter: "Elder Elder, you and I understand that the seven thousand infantry in the two support troops of the Deman Army must be impossible to catch up. Arrived on the battlefield before the end of the battle; even if those five thousand elite riders could reach the battlefield before the end of the battle, how much role can they still play when they are exhausted during the journey?"

"Also, it's not just their Germans who are waiting for work. The soldiers under my command have always been waiting for work." Dietrich said with his whip, pointing to the soldiers who were sleeping on the bullock cart. : "In the more than a week from the rally from East Friesland to the retreat to the Bryant area, my soldiers rushed to take a break every day, and we are the one who really needs to work."

The elder of the Dragon Headquarters asked helplessly: "General Dietrich, I really don't understand, why do you have to fight the Deman army who intercepted your ministry on the way to retreat? Is it a smooth retreat to Bryant? Isn’t the area the result you want?"

"This battle was not what I wanted to fight. It was the initiative of the Deman army. I was just passively fighting." Dietrich denied Elder Tianlong's words, but he still did it in the eyes of Elder Dragon. Explained: "The previous destructive operations turned my soldiers from soldiers into butchers. Now I need to use a battle to wake them up and let them regain their military glory."

"Sir General, have you thought about the consequences of your defeat?" Elder Tianlong, who was almost speechless, continued with his discretion: "Once your ministry is unfortunately defeated, not only is your ministry more than 10,000 soldiers difficult Even if you escape from bad luck, you will soon be able to withdraw smoothly from the army of General Anjay and General Sikorsky in the territory of the Deman Kingdom, and you will be unsustainable because you lose your backbone."

The idea of ​​Elder Tianlong is very simple, that is, to use the life and death of two or three hundred thousand German army soldiers to force Dietrich to abandon his plan to confront the Deman army; unfortunately, Elder Tianlong only knows that Dietrich is a love Bingruzi's general, but did not know that he was an upright soldier with a very heavy military honor, so his approach to Dietrich was really difficult to play a valuable role.

The bitter-mouthed woman persuaded Tianlong Elders who had no effect for most of the day. Finally, he gave up his persuasion and turned to find a way to help Dietrich win the next battle that seemed to be evenly matched, but the Shaoxing Army was at a disadvantage. During the emergency consultations with the elders of Liege, the Tianlong headquarters once again changed from the Liege headquarters to 30 ordinary crossbow vehicles and 10 heavy crossbow vehicles, as well as six catapults at a considerable cost.

The addition of this batch of combat equipment allowed De Shaojun, who lacked long-range strike power, to have a more powerful long-range strike force than the Deman Army; the only Deman Army that did not carry various equipment and weapons because he was on the road The long-range strike force is the archer.

Archers with limited range can shoot arrows with limited lethality. Unless it is difficult to make armor-breaking arrows, it is difficult to affect the well-equipped Deshao army; on the contrary, it is the latest 30 ordinary crossbows received by the Deshao army Vehicles, ten heavy crossbow vehicles, and six catapults, these are heavy equipment weapons that originally belonged to siege weapons and garrison weapons. On the field battlefield, that is the real killer!

After receiving this batch of heavy equipment weapons, Dietrich divided nearly two hundred cows to drag these heavy equipment weapons, so that the marching speed of his army was not affected; so the time passed by one minute and one second The distance between the two armies is getting closer.

When noon was approaching, the moving Deshao army was only about five miles away from the intersection intercepted by the heavy German troops; Dietrich, who felt that the time had come, ordered that his soldiers be fully loaded The convoy of goods, the whole army on foot to the battlefield.

Dietrich began to slowly adjust the formation as his army advanced, and the elite two thousand soldiers of the whole army were deployed to the front of the army, followed by the combat strength of the whole army. The weakest crossbow and catapults operated by a thousand soldiers, followed by two thousand soldiers with medium combat strength. The Chinese army also has a flank unit composed of 1,500 soldiers on the left and right wings.

In addition to these eight thousand soldiers directly deployed in the front array, Dietrich also left more than three thousand soldiers in his hand, which was his reserve team; originally Dietrich did not intend to stay so many The reserve team, but the heavy equipment and weapons provided by the Dark Council gave him more confidence, allowing him to start the battle with a more relaxed attitude.

As the Dessaus advanced slowly, the horn of battle also sounded in the temporary camp of the Germans. A team of well-equipped German soldiers led down to the front of their camp under the leadership of the intermediate officers. On the open ground, the array began at a very fast speed.

Unlike Dietrich’s diamond-shaped battlefield, which attacked steadily, Blücher, who advocates offensive, initially listed an attack formation similar to a frontal attack; the most elite soldiers in the 5,000 German army formed a frontier Bilu's offensive spearhead, followed by a rifle of four thousand soldiers immediately after the offensive spearhead, with a thousand archers on both sides of the stab body and on both sides of the spearhead who could attack and retreat.

Even though the presence of the four thousand archers gave Deman's attack and defense arrays the ability to defend, the attack and defense arrays listed by Blucher were still full of offensive meaning; because the naturally warlike Blucher took him The guards are at the core of the offensive spearhead, and even the general is ready to lead the team to charge. What other reasons do the following Deman soldiers think about defending?
