After being on the run for many days, the soldiers of the Fourth Division finally had a full meal today thanks to their teammates.
Holding the fragrant rice, the soldiers of the Fourth Caribbean Division couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and some even had tears in their eyes: they could finally have a full meal and no longer had to starve to death.
These soldiers were also very hungry. None of them used knives and forks, but just grabbed the hot meals and stuffed them into their mouths.
Although everyone was grinning and screaming because they were burned, they still kept moving their hands. They were afraid that if they took a step too slow, others would take away all the food.
Seeing them devouring their food, the riders driving the cart next to them were secretly wondering: When did the demon clan's bastards become so embarrassed?
These gentlemen have not always been of the upper class, so who dares to starve them?
What surprised them even more was that the Semitic soldiers were so good at eating. They were all like rice cans. In the blink of an eye, they had consumed nearly 30,000 kilograms of food.
The soldiers of the Fourth Division were really frightened of hunger. They didn't stop until the food was piled in their throats.
They patted their swollen bellies with contentment, then picked up a few straw sticks to pick their teeth, and lazily lay down on the dry grass beside the road, crossing their feet and taking a nap in the warm winter sunshine.
After eating and drinking, you can bask in the sun and light a cigarette. It's a fairy-like enjoyment.
Just as they were enjoying the afternoon sunshine comfortably and all of them were falling asleep, a puff of smoke and dust appeared in the distance, and a large group of cavalry rushed over quickly.
The rumble of horse hooves shook the earth and woke up the dozing Caribbean people.
‘The human race is coming so soon?’ Everyone was startled at first, jumped up from the ground quickly, and prepared to escape. However, in the next moment, they saw clearly the big flag carried by the opponent.
That blue tulip flag was almost exactly the same as the one played by the grain transport team just now.
Everyone suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: It turned out to be those Japs again~!
The soldiers' sense of Semitic superiority suddenly exploded.
Someone jumped up immediately, pointed at them and cursed loudly: "Why are you making so much noise? There is no morality at all. I didn't know the gentlemen were sleeping there."
"We can talk about it after we wake up."
"Grandma, I'm just riding a horse. Can't you be gentler? It scares people's hearts and makes them jump."
"Show me how awesome you are."
"Kill them, kill them..."
"..."
These Caribbean soldiers used them as a punching bag and hurled curses at them.
The Caribbean people had been frightened all the way, and they had been holding back their anger for a long time. At this time, these people from the De Rossi Empire came to their door, and naturally they couldn't let it go.
The soldiers kept yelling and swearing, and for a while the noise reached the sky.
The menacing appearance of the soldiers of the Caribbean Division really frightened the officers led by the De Rossi Empire.
Although they are both under the leadership of the high priest, and there is no lack of official publicity, the great and long-standing historical and traditional friendship between the Semitic people and the human race, as well as the great and long-standing historical and traditional friendship between the Semitic people and the human race under the leadership of His Majesty Emperor De Rossi, have been forged between the Semitic people and the human race.
An unbreakable, sacred alliance.
There is so much unity, unity, and common hatred... But in fact, the relationship between the Semitic people and the people of the Derosi Empire has always been at odds.
The Semitic guys are all extremely brutal and brutal, and they act without scruples. Although they have repeatedly lost battles against the human coalition forces, they are extremely ruthless when it comes to their own friendly forces.
In private, very disharmonious things like saping, attacking, and shooting cold arrows... etc. happen from time to time.
To the Semitic people, they, the people of the Derosi Empire, were second-class citizens.
Moreover, His Majesty Emperor De Rossi also played the role of "people annihilating traitors" very well.
Once something happened between the two parties, His Majesty Emperor De Rossi would jump out first and calm the matter. He would even severely punish his own men.
Over time, these puppet soldiers of the De Rossi Empire were all beaten to death. When meeting the Semitic people, they could only humiliate and compromise.
Seeing the commotion on the Semitic side, the leading officer, De Rossi, was far away and hurriedly jumped off his horse. In order to show his sincerity, he also deliberately asked the cavalry behind him to retreat a little further, taking only a few people with him.
Came over.
The guards brought him to General Melun.
The officer came closer, first looked at the dignified and majestic General Melun, then raised his hand to salute, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Colonel Colonel of the Second Division of the Royal Guards of the De Rossi Empire,
Lun, may I ask, General, who are you?"
General Melun held his command knife in both hands and sat on a horse with a straight face, looking as if he was very dissatisfied. In fact, he was indeed extremely dissatisfied.
In his ideal state, the meeting with junior officers from outside should be done in his barracks, sitting high behind the desk, with rows of people on both sides holding big swords, fat and strong, showing a palm-wide chest of hair.
of strong men.
General Mo was sitting in the big tent. He shook his body slightly, spreading his domineering aura. The frightened officers were so pale that they lowered their heads and bowed.
Instead of like now, he can only sit on a small pony. And the other person is standing, so he has to raise his head to look at the other person, which makes him lose all momentum.
At this time, the guard next to him raised his head and said proudly: "This is General Melun of our Fourth Caribbean Division."
"Caribbean... Melun..." Colonel Lauren muttered silently in his mind. He had never heard of it, but it seemed that this division commander couldn't be fake.
Moreover, there are almost tens of thousands of soldiers around them. If you take a serious calculation, they should still be a full-strength main division.
"I wonder where your Excellency General Melun is from?"
"Let's go from the east..." Melun quickly shut up, regretting in his heart that he almost told the truth.
If he said he came from Fantino in the east, the other party would immediately know that he had been defeated, and this should never be revealed.
"Reinforcements are coming from the mainland." General Melun paused for a moment, then vowed.
Colonel Lauren's face suddenly lit up and he said happily: "That's great. Our Majesty has been looking forward to reinforcements."
He regarded the Fourth Division as a new force coming from the west for reinforcements.
After so many days, the news of Fantino's defeat has reached Emperor De Rossi.
Because the Semitic officials tried their best to cover it up, the people had no way to get clear information. However, this did not restrict them, but instead stimulated their imagination, causing all kinds of gossip to fly all over the sky.
Some people say: Humans are still in Fantino. Although they won the battle, they also suffered heavy losses. Lorraine was unable to advance westward at all.
Some people also say: Hundreds of thousands of human coalition forces have completed their assembly in Fantino. Under the leadership of Lorraine, they are rushing towards them. If they don't run now, they will have no chance.
Others say that the High Priest of the Undead has used dark magic to summon as many as nine million undead legions, marching eastward to take the Maple Leaf Danlin.
In addition, some people say that the Semitic war fortress raided the city of Ruman and razed the entire city to the ground. The morale of the Ruman Empire was greatly reduced... Count Lorraine carried a small book with the names of people annihilated on it.
.Anyone who has helped the demons or done bad things for them will record a black bean. If he has done a good thing, he will record a red bean. Once there are enough black beans, it will be counted as his general ledger.
...But no matter how the news spread, one thing is certain: the Semitic navy and the reinforcements carrying more than 100,000 troops were completely wiped out, and Veraplani was defeated.
And after so long, they still haven't been defeated. It's possible that they have been completely surrounded and annihilated by Lorraine.
The war initiative on the Western Front has been transferred to Lorraine, and he may come over at any time~!
The soldiers of the De Rossi Empire were frightened three times a day. At the slightest sign of trouble, they would jump up several feet in fright. Deserters had begun to appear in the camp.
Although De Rossi personally led the patrol and killed several deserters, he could only temporarily stabilize the situation.
Although he wanted to evacuate, he didn't dare.
The high priest personally ordered De Rossi to stabilize the defense line.
In desperation, His Majesty Emperor De Rossi could only desperately write letters for help to the rear, three letters a day, eagerly hoping that the High Priest of the Undead would send him troops.
Looking to the stars and the moon, the reinforcements finally arrived, and they were the main Semitic divisions, a real force.
Even though General Melun had a very bad attitude, Colonel Laurent still wanted to hug him and give him a kiss. He knew what he was doing, and he followed De Rossi's hardcore people to annihilate him, and he often did bad things. He was probably in Lorraine.
There are almost enough black beans in his name in that little book.
What if that scumbag came with his troops and calculated his general ledger... The consequences would be absolutely disastrous.
Therefore, when he saw the Semites coming for reinforcements in such a dangerous time, he was so excited that tears filled his eyes.
After all, no one knows whether hundreds of thousands of joint [***] will suddenly appear on the horizon at the next moment and make dumplings for them all.
"But one division is a bit short." Colonel Lauren felt a little regretful in his heart.
There are only tens of thousands of people at the moment, what can we do?
You know, the Holy See Legion alone was surrounded by 100,000 people in Delong City.
"Excuse me, General, are there any reinforcements behind you?" Lauren asked with concern.
General Melun thought for a while and said uncertainly: "Maybe, there is more?"
At that time, most of the transport fleet chose to run aground on the beach, and he was not the only one to get off the ship.
When he was panicking at night, Melun also encountered many friendly troops, but at that time everyone was frightened and no one knew where to go. They could only run around like headless flies.
There should be others running out from behind.
Put it this way, Caribbean people seem to be the quickest to escape.
For a moment, General Melun felt a little proud.
Colonel Lauren was also overjoyed and said excitedly: "I will report the news to His Majesty immediately and ask the army to come to Delong as soon as possible. Your Majesty will welcome your arrival, General."
"Wait a minute," General Melun stopped Colonel Lauren who was about to turn around and leave, and said cautiously, "I heard that you are still fighting in Delong City?"
Colonel Lauren patted his chest and said confidently: "A few clowns are nothing to worry about. After our army's long siege, the enemy will soon collapse.
As long as the general's division arrives, our two armies will work together and we can easily capture Delong City."
Seeing the colonel's words of assurance and assurance, General Melun pondered for a moment.
"To go, or not to go? That is the question."
There will inevitably be a fight if you go, but if you don't go, you can't just run back to Ryder City with others.
There is no uncle to protect him there, and he might be chopped off by someone who doesn't like him.
This guy seems to be talking very relaxedly, how about... go and take a look?
If things go wrong, even if he continues to turn around and look for the "large army", Emperor De Rossi will not be able to control him anyway.
Melun turned around and looked at his men on the left and right. These officers were all close associates of the Caribbean city lord, as well as Melun's own fair-weather friends.
They knew everything about eating, drinking and gambling, but they didn't know about fighting. Their expressions at this moment were more confused than Melun himself.
"It seems that we can't count on them." Melun lamented in his heart. If he had known that this was the case, he would have asked his uncle to send him some people who knew how to fight.
After weighing for a long time, General Melun gritted his teeth and said: "Colonel, please go back first, our division will be here soon."
Colonel Lauren nodded happily, touched his heels hard, gave a military salute with a bang, and said: "Yes, I will go back and inform our Majesty right away."
He turned around and left quickly with his men, without even looking at the pile of food.
But he knew that if something fell into Semitic hands, it would be like a bone falling into a dog's mouth.
No matter what, they couldn't get it back, and Emperor De Rossi was not short of food. These supplies were sent east to Veraplani.
Anyway, it was the Semites who took it away. When Veraplani came back to investigate, he asked him to make trouble for General Melun, and let them go dog-eat-dog. He could just stand aside and watch the joke.
The 4th Caribbean Division was not in a hurry to leave at this time. They rested on the spot, had two good meals, and even had a sound sleep in the middle.
General Melun was cautious and did not immediately lead his army to Delong City, even though the distance was only thirty or forty miles away.
He sent a team of famously clever guys in the division to explore the way. If it was true as the Colonel of the De Rossi Empire said, he would move there and get some credit by the way, and send his letter, which was updated every day, to
Polish up the battle report.
If that guy is deceiving himself into giving up his life, he will just turn around and leave without saying anything.
The scouts returned soon. The situation in Delon City was just like what the people of the Derosi Empire said. The outside of the city was surrounded by a large army, and the inside was guarded by humans. The two sides were still confronting each other.
But he seemed quite calm and seemed unable to fight.
It was not until the third day of the second day that the 4th Division, which had had a good rest for the whole day, hit the road again with the grain truck and slowly headed north.
The soldiers, who had no sense of urgency, walked freely and leisurely along the way, stopping and stopping like tourists on a sightseeing tour.
It was not until noon that I saw the black figure of Delong City.
"Tents, blankets, brothers can no longer sleep on the ground. Camp beds, I need a bathtub, and by the way, there are also maps. Don't forget to ask for a complete set of maps."
General Melun was thinking in his mind that he would ask Emperor De Rossi for more supplies. If he came to help him fight the war, if he didn't want to do it, he would inevitably be embarrassed by him.
"Oops, there's a fight~!"
Just as he was thinking about it, someone suddenly shouted loudly in front of him, and the entire Fourth Division immediately stopped and looked to the north in panic.
"What's going on?" General Melun exclaimed, looking around nervously and saying, "Where is it? Who is fighting with whom?"
The soldiers sent out to investigate ran back quickly, shouting all the way: "The fighting is starting, the fighting is starting in front."
Then he rushed to General Melun and said urgently: "Report to the general, a fighting has just started below the city. There are at least hundreds of thousands of people, and they are heading towards this place."
"Fuck~!" General Melun was dumbfounded, and his mind went blank for a moment. xxxxx Cardinal Sandos sat on the horse with a solemn expression, his eyes watching his cavalry roaring towards De Rossi's camp.
Following closely behind the cavalry, more than a dozen Holy See Knight Legions spread out in horizontal formation. The soldiers of the Holy See Legion shouted the slogan "For the Light" in unison, and charged at the enemy with high morale, advancing steadily towards Emperor De Rossi's camp.
.
The high-pitched drums and trumpets sounded louder and louder than the waves.
Behind Cardinal Sandos, the pure white golden cross flag of the Holy See swayed slowly in the wind - the Holy See's Bayer Legion took the initiative to attack the Drossi [***] team.
Opposite the Holy See Legion, the camp of Emperor Drossi [***] was in chaos, and they were running around the camp in panic.
The officers were busy gathering troops, and the soldiers were busy looking for weapons. The soldiers who found the weapons were busy looking for their officers, and then hurriedly ran out of the barracks to form formations.
None of them expected that the Holy See troops who had been surrounded in the city would suddenly come out after being peaceful for so many days, catching the officers and soldiers of the De Rossi Empire by surprise.
Originally, over this period of time, they had become accustomed to sit-down wars in which both sides stayed behind closed doors.
After several failed attacks, Emperor De Rossi had already given up his plan to attack Delon City.
Cardinal Sandos had sufficient troops and had grenades as a close combat weapon. Relying on trench defense, De Rossi's army suffered nothing but casualties.
Now for Emperor De Rossi, the more urgent threat is not Cardinal Sandos who is trapped in Delon City, but Lord Lorraine after the victory.
The frontline officers and soldiers of the De Rossi Empire focused their attention on Fantino.
After the defeat at Veraplani, Emperor De Rossi was worried about when the army led by Lorraine would come - he would definitely come, it was just a matter of time.
I heard that Lorraine has now gathered nearly 200,000 regular troops, as well as artillery, war fortresses, battleships and the assistance of the Elf Kingdom. The force is unprecedentedly powerful.
The hundreds of thousands of people on the front line of De Rossi will definitely not be able to defeat Lorraine. They are already prepared to retreat immediately if the limelight is not right.
Under this situation, they almost completely ignored the Bayer Legion that had been squatting in the city.
The whole De Rossi Empire unanimously believed that the Holy See Legion in the city would wait for Lorraine's large army to relieve the siege.
If it were them, they could win by just sitting still, so why go out and fight all by themselves?
Besides, the Bayer Corps didn't have as many troops as they did, and the commander was a notorious idiot.
Cardinal Sandos remained stationary for a long time and successfully paralyzed the enemy.
After receiving the news of Lord Lorraine's victory in Fantino, Cardinal Sandos knew that his opportunity had come.
Another important reason that prompted Cardinal Sandos to go to war was that he lacked enough food.
After the battle in Ruman City began, Sandos knew that he would no longer be able to receive airlift supplies from the War Fortress.
These war fortresses are all going to participate in the more important defense battle of Ruman City.
There are 200,000 to 300,000 people in the city, and the number of people eating horse chews is not a small number, and the food reserves are not enough to last for a month.
It seems that the defense battle of Ruman City will not end for a while. Between the Bayer Army and Lord Lorraine's Fantino, there is also Vera Planni's main Semitic force. Although they were defeated, they still have the strength to fight.
The wait for rescue will be endless. He must find a way to save himself.
To put it bluntly, the Delong City he was defending had no strategic value at all. Even if the big bosses at the rear were lost, they wouldn't feel bad.
Cardinal Sandos thought for a long time, repeatedly discussed tactics with his officers, and asked Lord Lorraine and the staff at the rear for instructions.
Lord Lorraine sent him detailed information within a few hundred miles. After learning that there were no Semitic troops around, Cardinal Sandos finally made up his mind to launch an initiative against Emperor De Rossi who was surrounding Delon.
