"Boom!" A cloud of black smoke rose from the horizon. The officer of the Lines Empire put down the telescope in front of his face and handed it to the adjutant beside him proudly: "Rebel Empire? The Tang Empire hasn't come yet!
I want to see how long these rip-off things can last!"
Along with his voice, there was another explosion in the distance, black smoke rose into the sky, and a queue of countless soldiers from the Lions Empire had begun to move forward.
They were ordered to attack in the direction of Bunas, who surrendered to the Tang Empire, and wipe out those bastards who betrayed the empire.
If these soldiers of the Lions Empire were to face the Tang Empire's army, they might be a little timid, but if they were to fight against the city guards, they really weren't afraid.
In fact, there are almost too many in all countries. The city guard is probably an armed police force, and its combat effectiveness is somewhat weaker than that of the field force. Therefore, if regular troops are used to attack the city guard, the victory or defeat can be almost determined before the battle begins.
As the shells fired by the Lions Empire's heavy artillery exploded one after another on the horizon, the prelude to this attack had also begun.
Densely packed soldiers of the Lions Empire swarmed towards the distant defense line, and scattered tanks with rolling tracks could be seen in the crowd.
No matter which aspect you look at, the Lions Empire's infantry-tank coordination is much more skillful than the so-called infantry-tank coordination of some African countries. After the formation was unfolded, the offensive momentum was immediately apparent.
"For His Majesty the Emperor!" Leader Lines' Imperial platoon leader waved his arms to encourage the attacking soldiers. And the soldiers who were staggering forward in the field also gave out an inspiring shout: "Long live the Empire!"
The Lanes City Guards deployed outside Jade City had just surrendered to the Tang Empire, and they didn't even have time to change their equipment. They just tied a red armband on their arms to indicate that they had changed their flag.
Of course, these troops are still equipped with Lions Empire equipment, use Lions Empire standard rifles, wear Lions Empire military uniforms, and wear their helmets. At first glance, one might think that they are still Lions Empire soldiers.
.
At this moment, the city guards of the Lines Empire have revolted. They no longer fight for the Lines Empire. Instead, they will fight for the Tang Empire.
But sometimes, combat effectiveness cannot be changed by subjective will: Although the Tang Empire was invincible, the combat effectiveness of the city guards of other countries that had just surrendered was not guaranteed.
So when dozens of artillery shells fell and the entire battlefield was filled with thick smoke, the Lions Empire City Guard soldiers who were originally stationed in Jade City were shaken.
Many soldiers put down their weapons and ran away, and some took their weapons with them when they fled. A hastily formed defense line collapsed instantly, and the Battle of Tamaki turned into a farce in which the Lions Empire troops attacked and the Tamaki defenders collapsed.
"This is a collapse? It's vulnerable!" After seeing his army break through the defense line of the Yucheng defenders, the general of the Lions Empire snorted disdainfully.
At this moment, he was very proud, because he had completed the first task assigned to him by Emperor Lions II. Taking Jade City also meant that he might be promoted to a higher position and become another member of the empire in the midst of the turmoil.
The mainstay.
"General! Yucheng's troops are retreating. It may be a bit troublesome for them to hide in the city and fight with us in the streets." The officer under his command warned.
Lines' general nodded and gave an order: "Order the troops to bite the opponent and not allow them to organize an effective attack in the city."
"Yes!" The subordinate immediately agreed, and then went to convey his order. The sound of artillery on the battlefield gradually stopped, and the victory of the Lions Empire seemed to be determined.
It only took one day for the defense line outside Yucheng to be broken through by the troops of the Lions Empire, and then both sides entered the city.
Immediately afterwards, the defenders of Yucheng withdrew from the city and retreated along the road towards Bunas Port. They retreated very quickly, after all, here is the best railway and highway system in the Eastern Continent.
The attacking Lions Empire troops were not aggressive. After occupying Jade City, they did not rush to pursue it. Instead, they celebrated vigorously in Jade City for two days.
…
Tiger had already gone south at this moment and chose Rewind Port, which is further south, as his headquarters. The conditions here are obviously better than those in Everwinter Port.
In fact, he was planning to go to Osa. Unfortunately, it was just occupied there and the security environment was poor. At the same time, the communication and other facilities were not intact, so it was not possible to place the headquarters there for the time being.
Tiger looked tired when he got out of the car, because he really hadn't had much rest in the past few days. The situation changed too fast, and he, who was very cautious in everything, always had to deal with emergencies personally, so he never got a good night's sleep.
Good sleep.
"Long live our Emperor!" The senior generals of the Tang Army standing on both sides of the car door stood at attention and saluted. Tiger grabbed the gorgeous marshal's scepter with his hand and shook it gently, completing the return salute.
He was wearing a straight military uniform, which was covered with various medals. Officials at all levels standing around to greet him were densely packed for several hundred meters, but most of them could only watch from a distance.
The photographers holding the cameras kept pressing the shutter. Because of the need to take care of security, everyone could only use the new cameras provided by the relevant departments of the Tang Empire. There was no way, if people used ancient explosive spotlights to take pictures.
, maybe something serious will happen.
As soon as he stepped out of the car, the Imperial Marshal cast his eyes on the Air Force liaison officer in a blue military uniform among the crowd.
He walked up to the other party, ignored the warm applause that broke out from the crowd in the distance, and asked directly: "How is the situation? We have taken enough risks this time."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! For him, the commander-in-chief, this action plan is indeed too hasty and too risky.
Because no one could have predicted in advance that the Tang Empire would have such a great influence on the entire Lanes and parts of the Sussus Empire, the Datang Empire’s General Staff was not overly optimistic about drawing up any exaggerated plans for integration.
.
As a result, such a thing really happened, and everyone was caught off guard: no one expected that the Beiling and Bunas areas would actually surrender, and they would surrender so early.
In order to prevent these places from being repeatedly ravaged, the Tang Army's frontline command system immediately started operating quickly. While verifying the accuracy of the information, they began to work with the intelligence department to formulate a complete set of action plans.
Finally, the entire action plan includes three very exaggerated parts: The first part is the response plan in the Soussas area. This plan is relatively feasible. The operation includes the use of paratroopers to control some areas and respond to the surrendered North Ridge.
.
The second action plan is also very reasonable, which is to immediately dispatch a naval fleet to reinforce the Bunas area and provide support and cover.
What made Marshal Tiger nervous was the third plan: the army urgently mobilized a division of troops, including some tanks and armored vehicles, and the air force mobilized various types of transport aircraft for emergency transportation to the airport in the Bunas area.
This plan is extremely bold from every aspect: first of all, the situation in Bunas and Tamaki is very unclear, and dispatching so many transport planes to transport soldiers there is an adventure in itself.
Secondly, the conditions of those field airports are unclear. It is not easy to determine whether the large transport aircraft have the conditions to land, and whether the landing transport aircraft has the conditions to refuel and return. If not, the Tang Empire may lose hundreds of aircraft in one operation.
Expensive transport aircraft.
Finally, it is also an extreme risk to send tens of thousands of people to an unfamiliar area and immediately go into battle: these people will not have any air reinforcements in a short time, and they lack heavy firepower. The early stage of the fight will be very difficult, and it will be very difficult for the entire army.
It's all a test.
"Marshal! The news just confirmed is that the first batch of transport planes has approached the sky above Bunas. There is good news and bad news." The Air Force liaison officer lowered his voice and reported to Tiger's ear: "The good news is,
The intelligence personnel in Bunas have confirmed that the airport there meets the conditions for landing, and our ground engineers have brought many tools and spare parts with them. As long as there is a slight modification, refueling and simple maintenance, there should be no problem."
"Moreover, after repeated investigations, it was found that both Bunas and Tamaki truly surrendered." After he finished telling the good news, he continued to talk about the bad news: "The bad news is that the news I just got is that Tamaki has been lost."
"Huh?" Tiger frowned and looked dissatisfied at another officer standing aside: "What's going on?"
"What Yucheng surrendered to us was part of the local field troops and almost all the city guards. Marshal, you know that the city guards...can't count on any combat effectiveness." The officer explained awkwardly: "Counterattack
It is the main force of the field troops gathered by the Lions Empire, and the combat effectiveness of the two sides is indeed not on the same level."
"I understand." Tiger waved his hand and led people into the office building prepared for him. A new plaque has been hung in front of the courtyard, which reads "Eastern Front Headquarters of the Tang Empire"
.
As an elf who had just been promoted to a city hall official, Charlie was standing in the crowd at this moment. He saw the majestic Imperial Marshal with a medal on his chest, and also saw the generals of the Tang Empire wearing straight military uniforms.
From these people, he saw the terrifying power of the Tang Empire. Every soldier here exuded an awe-inspiring aura. Standing together, the air even became thicker. Even from such a distance, Charlie could smell it.
The illusion of the smell of gunpowder smoke.
Of course, he also knew that it was all his illusion: in fact, the elven war was over, and there could no longer be any danger here.
A large transport plane with the dragon emblem of the Tang Empire painted on its wings roared across the sky. It was loaded with elite soldiers from the Tang Empire and was heading rapidly towards its destination, Bunas. In the dim cabin, the officer was conducting
All the soldiers were doing pre-war mobilization: "Warriors! Do you know where our target is? Bunas! That is the place where His Majesty the Emperor rose! We must hold it for His Majesty at all costs! Do you have confidence?"
"Yes!" Countless people answered loudly in the noisy cabin. Pairs of pairs stared at the officers with firm eyes, waiting for the moment when they would make great achievements.
Soon, the transport plane began to lose altitude and circled over a simple field airport in preparation for landing. Some staff could be seen running on the runway, and they had obviously seen the approaching aircraft in the sky.
The roar of the engine was deafening, but the soldiers in the cabin seemed unusually calm. Each of them had a resolute expression on their face, and their eyes revealed the determination to regard death as if they were home.
They are looking forward to the opportunity to sacrifice their lives for His Majesty. Death is the best medal for them, and victory is the best way for them to prove their loyalty.
For these soldiers, Bunas is just a legend. It appears in every story of the rise of an empire, and it was once so distant and mysterious.
Now, they are going to take back this land that has witnessed the history of the Tang Dynasty for their emperor. These soldiers have experienced hundreds of battles, and they have long been accustomed to war, but they have the desire for victory and the belief in protecting the Tang Empire.
, but there has never been any change.
They are fearless.
The landing gear hit the ground, and the plane began to tremble and bump. All the soldiers holding weapons swayed, and everyone was waiting for the moment the hatch opened.
The sound of the engine had not stopped yet, and the huge transport plane was still turbulently turning slowly, making way for the following aircraft to make way for precious runway. While shaking, the door at the tail of the plane slowly opened, and strong airflow instantly poured into the cabin.
It's so loud that people can't open their eyes.
The well-trained soldiers all showed excitement. Carrying heavy luggage and holding AK-47 rifles, they stood up amidst the deafening roar, filed out in an orderly manner, and quickly landed on the runway.
superior.
"You've finally arrived!" The Lord of Bunas, who was guarding beside the airport runway, saw the regimental leader from the Tang Empire leading troops. His legs went weak and he knelt on the ground.
He was really scared. He was afraid that the troops of the Tang Empire would not come, but the troops of the Lions Empire would kill him first. If something like that happened, he, the traitor, would definitely not get any good results.
So he looked forward to the stars and the moon, and finally the army of the Tang Empire arrived. But...the way it arrived made him a little surprised.
For him, the more troops from the Tang Empire, the better... But how many people can the plane bring? So he was a little disappointed, disappointed that the Tang Empire was beyond its reach and could not provide him with more.
support.
But soon, he couldn't understand what was happening in front of him: because he saw the transport planes arriving one after another, as if there was no end.
