Under tremendous pressure, Alton's coalition forces had to organize their troops and set out to seek a decisive battle with the Dragon City army.
As the commander of the coalition forces, Gerald Eden is not so sure, or to put it more bluntly, he thinks that the best result is to be undefeated. Only in this way can he withdraw from the battle with dignity, hoping that Dragon City's army will
It is possible to be merciful. But this is undoubtedly a wishful thinking. Not to mention that Zhang Liao will miss this opportunity, even Jellal himself does not believe it. Placing hope on the enemy shows how far Alton has fallen at this moment.
There are many things that need to be done to move the army. The accumulated logistical baggage alone requires a large number of militiamen to transport it. Fortunately, the stations of the two armies are not very far away, and it does not exceed a five-day journey.
As an ideal place for a large army to fight, the area near Kadi City is very suitable. It has wide flat land and an unobstructed view of the plains. These are the conditions required for a large army to fight. Even so, Jellal still has a strong desire for the demonic army in Dragon City.
They were deeply afraid of the large cavalry army. From the moment the army set off, there was no team of less than a hundred people exploring the horse. Groups of exploring horses galloped around, providing eyes and ears for the army.
This is also the lesson that Gerald Eden learned from previous defeated armies. In the past, the expeditionary force relied on cutting off the enemy's eyes and ears first, and then relying on information from unknown channels to always take the strategic initiative first.
So Jellal was particularly careful this time, fearing that he would fall into the enemy's trap again.
In fact, he really thought too much this time, because Zhang Liao didn't want to use any conspiracy to defeat the enemy at all. He had a strong army of 100,000, and he could eat the enemy as long as he overwhelmed the enemy with an upright front!
Although the troops in the first theater of Longcheng, including the 10,000 naval soldiers of the first fleet, only number more than 90,000. The coalition forces on the opposite side have nearly 300,000 troops, but the morale, equipment, and arms of the two armies
If the divisions are included, Dragon City has the advantage!
This is the benefit brought by the two military reforms in Dragon City. In addition, Zhou Yunfei always implements technology first and emphasizes comprehensive strength. This is why an ordinary army in Dragon City today can face at least five times its own enemies without defeat!
Formal and systematic military academies are constantly supplying fresh blood to the Longcheng army, making the strength of the Longcheng army steadily increase. These professionally trained officers are no longer the same as in the past, who only relied on experience and force to lead troops.
.This is exactly the kind of professional soldier Zhou Yunfei needs!
Professionalism is different from those improvised armies. Professionalism is more powerful, just like the difference between a professional racing car and an ordinary car.
Not only the officers and front-line commanders in the army have to go through the academy screening, but ordinary soldiers also strengthen themselves in the professional reform. Taking the systematic recruitment training as a sample, and Zhou Yunfei integrated the military training methods known in his previous life, not only added
The quality of soldiers unites soldiers in the army.
Paoze, this word that comes from the Han Dynasty, has become the most sacred term in the hearts of every soldier in the Longcheng Army. If you want to hurt my Paoze, go ahead! Carry my body over there!
Even the civilian soldiers in the Fifty-first Army and the Fifty-first Army also understood the love between men in this strong affection between men.
"The love of comrades is one of the most sacred bonds in the world." Zhou Yunfei naturally knows how important the love of soldiers is in the military. This kind of love, which is not obvious at ordinary times, will explode into unimaginable emotions on the battlefield.
The will to fight!
The professional army will be Dragon City's sharpest weapon. Compared with the backward Ross Continent, Zhang Liao is naturally confident that he will defeat the 300,000 "miscellaneous soldiers" on the opposite side.
The Second Army of the Dragon City Army, after joining the former Expeditionary Pioneer Army, its number directly exceeded 60,000, becoming the largest army in Dragon City. The perfect configuration made the combat effectiveness of the new Second Army far exceed that of the average army.
Their power can be clearly seen from the weapons they carry.
As the only two A-type army infantry groups in Dragon City, the Second Army is equipped with more than 3,000 crossbow beds! What is the concept? Think about how Zhao Yun only used a hundred crossbow beds to break through the city of Lis.
Got it. Because this expedition does not require the newly formed Second Army to attack the solid city wall, the trebuchets used as siege equipment had to be left at home because the First Fleet was at full capacity. But there were only three thousand crossbows.
The bed is already terrifying.
As a comprehensive infantry group army, the newly formed Second Army has all-round strike capabilities. Excluding the pikemen who perform frontline tasks, there are a total of 5,000 archers, and of course, almost every man has a small hand crossbow.
After the sword and shield soldiers of Dragon City went through two military reforms, Zhou Yunfei broke through the constraints of the system and integrated and changed all the original armored soldiers and heavy armored soldiers, unified the non-equipped soldiers with more complete armor and weapons, and canceled the classification of these arms.
.
The configuration of the sword and shield soldiers is a little smaller than that of the cavalry. They have a composite shield and a stainless steel blade. They carry a very light simple hand crossbow and twelve crossbow arrows on their backs. This simple hand crossbow has poor shooting accuracy at short range, but
The most valuable thing is that it is very convenient to make and light in weight, making it easy for sword and shield players to fight.
As a result, the long-range strike capabilities of the newly formed Second Army are terrifying and outrageous!
Of course, as a complete new group army, the Second Army also has its own 3,000 cavalry. After the second military reform, the cavalry of the infantry group army are all armored light cavalry similar to the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. Their role is only as outposts to recover.
And for the purpose of assisting in frontal decisive battles, the original heavy cavalry sequence was completely eliminated. However, the First Army, the ace of Dragon City, still maintained the configuration of three thousand Yanyun cavalry.
As a result, coupled with the dozens of officer trainees who came from the Longcheng Military Academy and the deployment of logistics and medical and other units, the combat effectiveness of the newly formed Second Army is several times higher than that of ordinary armies in the Ross continent!
Today is the day scheduled for the decisive battle. Zhang Liao stood on a simple high platform outside Kadi City early.
Looking at the neatly organized and high-spirited newly formed Second Army in front of him, Zhang Liao felt a sense of pride overflowing from his chest.
"Brothers! Today is the day when our Second Army goes out for battle!" Zhang Liao's loud roar spread throughout the entire army, and then he drew out the sword from his waist and pointed diagonally forward.
"In front, there are enemies from Dragon City! They are making their last stand! Tell me! What are we going to do?"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" The roar of the army declared that this war was about to break out.
As the army marched out in an orderly manner, Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun were riding on their respective war horses.
"Commander Zhao, I'll leave this operation to you." Zhang Liao's words made Zhao Yun nod heavily. Then he hit his chest with his right hand, performed a military salute, and rode away.
Following Zhao Yun, the newly formed First Cavalry Division of Longcheng also left. More than 20,000 cavalrymen rushed away again, making the newly formed Second Army that also set off became more confident. The soldiers shouted to the sky with proud expressions.
: "The Han army is mighty!"
Viewed from the air, Alton's 300,000-strong coalition army and Dragon City's first theater army were marching toward the center in unison. If there were no miscalculations in time, they would meet exactly in the early morning of the third day.
This also means that a decisive battle that attracts worldwide attention will begin in three days. For a time, countless people watching this battle took a deep breath and waited for the final result.
"Master, it's time to take medicine." A beautiful sound interrupted Zhou Yunfei's gaze.
Zhou Yunfei retracted his gaze from the window and looked back at Diao Chan.
"Can I not take this medicine?" Seeing the dark bowl of medicine in Diao Chan's hand, Zhou Yunfei's eyes twitched unconsciously.
He hated this medicine deeply, and perhaps because of this reason, Zhou Yunfei's resentment towards the Alton Empire became even stronger. If those madmen hadn't come to assassinate him, why would he need to drink this painful and fatal medicine!
Diao Chan smiled slightly, she was already accustomed to Zhou Yunfei asking this question every day.
Sure enough, Zhou Yunfei, who was just making a routine inquiry, could only sigh slightly and took the bowl of medicine after seeing Diao Chan's silent resistance.
Staring at the concoction in the bowl, Zhou Yunfei took a deep breath, and then like a generous warrior, he drank the bitter medicine in the bowl in one breath.
"Ah! Damn it, why is this medicine so bitter!" Zhou Yunfei, who had finally finished drinking the medicine, quickly took the towel from Diao Chan's hand, wiped away the remaining medicine stains from the corners of his mouth, and took a long breath.
"The young master often said that bitter medicine is a good medicine. Although this medicine is bitter, it is of great help to the young master's physical recovery." Although Diao Chan tried to make Zhou Yunfei feel better, it was obviously not easy for Zhou Yunfei to recover after having just experienced the baptism of bitter medicine.
of.
However, Jia Xu's arrival made Zhou Yunfei's attention shift to other places.
"Wen He, what's the matter?" Zhou Yunfei knew that Jia Xu wouldn't come here for nothing, so he asked.
Jia Xu first saluted, and then said in his eerie voice: "My lord, I just received the news that the army in the first theater of operations began to take action one day ago."
Zhou Yunfei straightened up and his eyes flashed, "Have we started! Very good! Very good! What about the other party's actions!"
"Lord, as we expected, they took the initiative!" Jia Xu curved the corner of his mouth in a rare move, thinking that he was very satisfied with the other party's "obedient" performance.
"Oh! It's really coming out! Haha, God help me!" Zhou Yunfei laughed happily when he heard this. In this way, this war that lasted for more than two months will end with the final glorious decisive battle in Dragon City.
"Well, let's start preparing our plan!" Zhou Yunfei stopped laughing and looked at Jia Xu.
Jia Xu nodded clearly, then clasped his fists as a gesture and left the room.
"Tsk, tsk, Alton is finished, then I should prepare for Bywister." Regarding the decisive battle in the first theater, Zhou Yunfei was not worried at all, because he knew that there was nothing surprising about a battle that must be won.
of.
This thought is shared by many people who received the action between the two armies. Perhaps, the war between the two sides in Alton Dragon City, which has lasted for more than two months, will come to an end in one day.
