As Rodrigo reappeared in front of everyone and swore to accept his new responsibilities and identity, the operating rhythm of the Free Army and the national salvation government seemed to accelerate all of a sudden. First, there were anomalies reported one after another from various parts of the kingdom.
Climate and corresponding disaster events.
For example, there have been heavy rains in many places in Provence, which lasted for several days to more than ten days. The excessive rainfall caused by heavy rains not only turned the area into a swamp and blocked traffic, but also caused flooding and washing away by the surging rivers.
Roads, bridges, ports and docks have been damaged; water transportation has been seriously affected.
However, in the coastal and Rhône estuary provinces further south, large-scale red algae/blood tides broke out in many ports, including Marseille, as well as intensive fishing floods and stranding deaths, as well as subsequent accumulation and decay.
, a serious regional pollution called "Stinky Harbor".
However, in the cities of Orange and Montpellier, which were being rebuilt, large hailstones suddenly fell; the dense hailstones ranging from the size of eggs to the size of fists almost caused serious damage to people and animals who were moving on the streets at that time.
Among them, there were hundreds of dead and countless injured.
As an important rear area of the Free Army and one of the three major granaries, the Toulouse region/Garonne River Basin is about to face the autumn harvest in this midsummer; suddenly, multiple large areas of frost and cold rain occurred overnight.
; Many vineyards, farms and livestock farms were affected.
There is also news in overseas provinces that the annual dry season there is far longer than usual, and the rainy season has not been ushered in for a long time. It can be said that most of the results of the Free Army's operations and reclamation in the south over the past few years, and construction,
All are inevitably impacted and affected.
Although all regions are doing their best to carry out disaster relief and relief, trying to minimize losses and subsequent impacts. However, local harvest failures in the areas controlled by the Free Army, or even large-scale production reductions, seem to be imminent. Many ongoing
The project has also been greatly affected.
Although the private army has accumulated a considerable amount of food and material reserves over the years. However, as expected, with the obstruction of transportation lines and the gradual shrinkage of frontline supply scale, even if the rear can provide production capacity and materials, they may not be able to be sent to the Northern Expedition in time.
Go to the frontline battlefield.
Under such circumstances, someone finally couldn't help but stand up. At the meeting of the special committee, he took the initiative to propose to postpone the attack on the northern region; or even to consolidate and defend on the spot. Instead, concentrate manpower, material resources and other resources to use all-out efforts.
Respond to these unusual weather disasters in the rear.
However, some people have pointed out that since the situation in the central and southern parts of the kingdom is not optimistic, the situation of the Burgundian Dynasty, which only has a small province in the northern part of the kingdom, will only be even worse; therefore, it is better to take advantage of the current impact of abnormal weather and disasters
It hasn't spread yet, so be the first to step up the offensive momentum.
According to the least optimistic scenario, if the need for additional disaster relief and refugee accommodation is not considered at all, the current military reserves on the line from Reims to Lyon can sustain at least five to seven months of combat needs. After all, these supplies are for
Eventually, they took over the Capital Region and gathered.
Therefore, only a small part of it is allocated to support the cities and towns along the way where military stations and transfer points are set up in the rear, so as to temporarily maintain basic order and stability. Then other armies will pass through the epidemic area at a certain cost and use all their strength to
A radical plan to go straight to Seine City.
However, for these two voices that were obviously at odds with each other, Jiang Tian did not express his position immediately, but just sat silently and watched their continued dispute. He waited until the right time to announce the intermission. He also asked people to add one after another at the next meeting.
and provide more reasons and evidence;
Therefore, this impromptu meeting, under the auspices of Jiang Tian, rarely lasted for two days and one night; it also made everyone present exhausted and unable to dwell on trivial matters and personal likes and dislikes.
position; only the most pragmatic core issues/disagreements remain.
At this time, Jiang Tian finally received the prayer from Paulina in the distance. Immediately, he put some energy into the vision panel and started this short-lived and expensive void chat mode. As expected,
A situation also occurred in the direction of the Bolina Legion's attack.
In many areas of the Central Plateau and the Central Region, there have been vicious incidents of beasts of varying sizes rushing out of the mountains and forests to attack villages, towns and cities; and the tributaries of the Seine River across the Capital Region have suddenly surged and
It broke through the embankment and created flood areas.
Therefore, most of the overseas legions under the Polina Corps have lived in deserts, oasis and grassland areas for a long time, and have no experience in encountering such situations. Therefore, they were caught off guard and hurriedly caused a lot of losses;
Mainly the heavy equipment and supplies were flooded.
Most of the 12th Corps, which could not be moved, was scattered during the march; another regiment was cut off by the flood and temporarily lost contact. At this time, the Dynasty Army in the north, which had always performed mediocrely, suddenly rose up to counterattack, taking advantage of the
On a rainy night, a reverse surprise attack was carried out;
These imperial troops with chaotic flags, riding a large number of small boats and floating objects, almost broke through all the way along the river. Most of the defense lines and formations of the Polina Corps were disrupted by the flood;
It was blocked near Limburg.
Then, the two sides broke out in a brutal meat grinder-like battle outside the dilapidated Fort Tufulin. The focus of the battle was around the initiative to stand up and raise the battle flag, providing confidence and stability to the soldiers in the darkness and chaos.
Help Paulina, who also became the enemy's main target.
Therefore, when Jiang Tian used his consciousness to temporarily project it, what he saw was a dark storm, with countless people fighting in a melee regardless of friend or foe. And Paulina stood on the top of the castle holding the battle flag high, shrouded in light.
, like a sharp arrow piercing the darkness.
Inspiring the surrounding soldiers to risk their lives and bravely rush forward, even if they were bleeding and injured and fell to the ground dying, they still used their last strength to drag down the enemies around them. But they also attracted seemingly endless surges in the darkness.
The enemy is like a moth flying into a flame, attacking desperately.
Various layers of corpses entangled to death even formed a circular low wall of flesh and blood around her. However, in the legion headquarters, almost all the firelight and shooting movements were swallowed up by the huge darkness;
There are fewer and fewer soldiers around her.
Looking into the distance in the void, Jiang Tian even saw some obviously non-humanoid beings; for example, the body was covered in mucus or the scales were wet and reflective, or the face was protruding with long canine teeth, or there were several fins on the back like blades, or there were
The joints of its limbs are covered with spurs, or it may have broad fleshy wings.
Driven by some kind of force, they were fighting and squeezing each other. The light range formed by the battle flag knocked down and dragged away the soldiers who had lost their shelter one by one, or tore them to pieces on the spot. Next
For a moment, a huge ray of light appeared in the sky above Polina.
It was the projection radiated by Jiang Tian through the strange object. Although it did not have any direct lethality, it successfully caused the attacking enemy to panic and stop the offensive, and even scrambled to retreat in a large circle. According to this,
Many monsters and monsters hidden in the darkness emerged.
At the rear, surrounded by a group of special knights who were all covered in plate armor and barrel helmets, but whose thick manes could not be concealed; another old woman with a wrinkled face and a pitch-black horn could not help but cover her eyes and scream in agony;
And the pitch-black horn in her hand continued to emit billowing smoke.
And where the smoke dispersed, the rekindled fires and lighting fixtures would quickly dim and go out. Obviously, it was this strange thing that covered this surprise attack from the dynasty's army.
Action. Then a dim light passed through.
In an instant, the pitch-black horn, together with the old woman, shattered into pieces and exploded into pieces of flesh and blood flying in the sky. The abnormal knights who were illuminated and contaminated by the dim light screamed and collapsed on the spot.
The plate armor on his body was removed, and it burned abnormally on the spot.
And at the moment when the pitch-black horn collapsed, the dim smoke that spread around the battlefield seemed to have lost its subsequent support in an instant; it quickly dissipated, revealing the battle line with corpses lying on pillows, as well as those on the battlefield.
Back to back in the darkness, they shouted to the soldiers who formed formations to protect themselves.
Then, it turned into earth-shaking cheers, and everyone rushed forward to attack and kill. In the blink of an eye, these enemies and aliens who broke into the camp were turned into a furious wave that was being torn apart.
Several isolated islands that split apart and shrank rapidly...
When the situation reached this point, the crisis was basically resolved, and there was no need for Jiang Tian to do anything more. Then he came to his senses with his eyes closed and fell into a nap in the middle of a debate, but he only felt mentally abnormal.
Fatigue, obviously this is the price of projecting power through the air.
Then, he took out the yellow bead condensed by the little lake spirit. Less than half of the accumulated spiritual energy inside was quickly consumed by such a round of long-range projection and on-the-spot burst operations; the surface looked like sardonyx.
The pattern has faded visibly to the naked eye.
"Duh duh duh..." Then, he knocked on the handle of the chair with a short stick, and the voices on the large conference table slowly fell silent: "After everyone's repeated discussions, I have understood it clearly.
, to make a decision on this, the national salvation government will adopt two options at the same time."
That’s all for now, we need to conceive of a decisive battle and the evolution of the internal and external situation.
