"Since this place becomes the control area of the Chinese territory, it is not convenient for us to disturb us." Admiral George knew that the land of the Saar Empire was too far away from here. Once he faced the Chinese territory head-on, he would not get any benefits. How could he not break up or not?
It was well broken, so he decided to change his course and head towards the port of Aden on the Aberdeen Peninsula of the Persian Empire.
"This group of Saar bastards always go against us. We should teach them a lesson." Wan Yong punched the map table with a punch.
Sun Xiaohu smiled and said, "Our main goal is the Persian Empire now. It will not do us well to avoid being involved in such a powerful country."
Sun Xiaohu fought wits and courage with the Saar Empire navy on the sea, but Zhang Zhonglin advanced rapidly on land. Because the Southern Ocean Fleet provided cover from the sea, he did not have to worry about threats from the sea, and he could concentrate his troops to attack westward.
In order to speed up, Zhang Zhonglin collected horses and camels along the way, and at the same time, the 12th Army of the Defense Army divided its troops to defend important strongholds. The Second Army of the Guards and the 11th Army of the Defense Army advanced lightly, aiming directly at the important city of Ba, the central Persian Empire, the important city in Ba, the Persian Empire.
Dela.
The Persian Empire is vast, and Zhang Zhonglin's tens of thousands of troops are not enough to use. Moreover, most of the Second Special War Division has to defend the Batan area and dare not use it easily. Therefore, Zhang Zhonglin attacked westward while sending Fang Xiaoyu a chance.
Ask for help telegram.
After receiving the telegram, Fang Xiaoyu immediately ordered the 15th Army of the Defense Army, the 17th Army and the 21st Army to go to support. In order to speed up, Fang Xiaoyu asked the soldiers of the three armies to take a train to cross most of the Lanfang Empire and go directly to the Batan area.
Of course, it is very taboo to enter the country with fully armed troops, so Fang Xiaoyu ordered the three armies to give up their weapons, and all of them boarded empty-handed, and the weapons were teleported over through Xiaofeng. This can be considered an explanation for the royal family, so as not to be ashamed of their face.
nice.
Because of the train, although the journey was long, the reinforcements led by the Chinese arrived in the Batan area within six days. After two days of rest and regaining weapons and replenishing supplies, the 21st Army was left to station in Batan.
Region. The other two armies and the Second Special War Division went to the Persian Empire together to support Zhang Zhonglin.
Compared with the speed of the Chinese leader using trains to mobilize troops, the Persian Empire's movements were much slower.
As there were no railways or even decent highways, the only main forces drawn by the Persian Empire from the Western Front could rely on were horses and camels. With such transportation conditions, even the fastest maulla cavalry divisions had just arrived in the capital.
Puka Town, a hundred kilometers west of.
Of course, this speed of travel has exceeded Zhang Zhonglin's expectations, mainly because the Istanese army suffered heavy losses in the previous attack. Faced with the pressure of the opponent's counterattack, the Istanese army was forced to retreat completely and did not reunite with the Persian army again.
The large battle allowed the Persian army to return so quickly.
At this time, Zhang Zhonglin had no idea that the Istanese Empire was so idiotic. He was leading the troops to advance day and night, hoping to capture Badra in advance and use this as a base to launch a mobilization operation on the inland continent of the Persian Empire.
The vanguard of the Chinese leader was temporarily converted into a draco cavalry by a brigade of temporarily using logistics pack horses to become a draco. It has arrived near Badra, only more than 70 kilometers away from the capital of the Persian Empire.
The commander of the Royal Gordon Legion of the Persian Empire, who was first reinforced to the front line, knew very well that his army was not very powerful and was no match for the Chinese army.
Therefore, he did not dare to take the initiative to face Zhang Zhonglin's advancement. He rationally chose to join the Eastern Front defeated troops and huddled in Badra City to build fortifications, hoping to stop the Chinese leading troops from attacking the capital and from the west
The large troops drawn back from the line are fighting for time.
In order to speed up the marching, the 211th Brigade of the Second Army of the Guards, as the vanguard, gave up all heavy equipment.
The soldiers of the Guards have all conducted horse riding training. After temporarily reorganizing the pack horses from the logistics department for riding, the entire regiment only slept for three hours a day. After three days of rapid march, they rushed to 200 kilometers for a long distance. They finally arrived.
At the city of Badra, fortunately, the main Persian force was defeated and there was not much resistance along the way, which allowed the 211th Brigade to arrive smoothly.
Seeing the Persian army waiting for battle, brigade commander Hong Tao knew that his raid would not be successful. He could not capture this strong city by himself, exhausted and lacking heavy equipment.
What he has to do now is to monitor the enemy here, collect intelligence, build positions, and make preparations for the follow-up troops. So he set up a camp and excavated fortifications, and sent a telegram to Zhang Zhonglin to report on the situation here.
Zhang Zhonglin called back and asked them to immediately find out the enemy's troops deployment, and at the same time accelerated the march to advance towards Badra City. Hong Tao sent out all the reconnaissance troops. The military confidentiality work of the Persian Empire was extremely poor, and these reconnaissance troops were very
You can easily get the information you want.
The deployment of troops in the city was quickly found out, and Hong Tao also received unexpected news that nearly 80,000 Persian cavalry were rushing towards Badra City, which was less than 100 kilometers away.
When Hong Tao heard this news, he was shocked and sweated. Unexpectedly, the Persian cavalry marched day and night and arrived here so quickly.
If they were attacked by a large number of Persian cavalry without any precaution, the more than 3,000 Chinese vanguard troops would soon be submerged.
With this news, Hong Tao immediately ordered the troops to move to nearby Azaro Mountain to rebuild fortifications.
In order to prepare for a long time, Hong Tao ordered everyone to fill the army with a kettle, and asked some carpenters to cut down trees, create simple buckets, and store fresh water as much as possible to solve the problem of water shortage in the mountains.
In addition to building fortifications, Hong Tao also sent a report to Zhang Zhonglin again to report the current situation. Seeing this telegram, Zhang Zhonglin found that his plan was a bit rash, and he actually overestimated the combat power of the East Empire army and allowed him to
The vanguard troops were in danger.
The combat effectiveness of the Persian army is poor, but their number advantage is obvious. Such a light army is simply sending more than 3,000 advance troops to others. But it is too late to regret it now, so Zhang Zhonglin had to pray for good luck in Hong Tao's troops.
, while speeding up the marching speed.
Hong Tao is an old man from the Guards. He has followed Fang Xiaoyu since the 9th Brigade of the Garrison Battalion and participated in all the wars of the Chinese leader. He is experienced and has studied in the Army School several times, and his abilities have been greatly improved.
