Alien Empire Total War
Chapter 48: Task
"Victory! Victory! Victory!"
"Damn pariahs, run away quickly!"
Somewhere in the plains of Devon Province, a battle has just ended. The National Army holding blue and yellow flags throws away their armor and flees, and the flags symbolizing the Republic are abandoned in the muddy grass and are defeated. Ruthless trampling, covered with all kinds of filth.
Seeing the enemy fleeing in embarrassment, the morale of the soldiers on the rebel side was high. They laughed loudly at the fleeing enemy, and were glad that they survived the battle.
The air is filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke produced by the burning flames, which is also mixed with a faint smell of blood, which completely covers the aroma of the soil after the rainy night. After cheering, the rebel soldiers looked around to the battlefield. The front line was full of corpses of soldiers from both sides. Judging from the clothes of the corpses, most of them were national soldiers, and there were very few corpses belonging to their comrades.
Among those corpses, there are many people who are not completely dead. They lie in the corpse piles and let out a faint moan of pain and a subtle cry for help, waiting for the victor to find them and take them away from here when they clean the battlefield.
At the back of the battlefield, a young nobleman on a war horse looked blankly at the soldiers who spontaneously cleaned the battlefield. Beside him, the adjutant whispered to him the information sent not long ago.
"The National Assembly sent their last available regular army to support the Devon battlefield. That army was numbered the Seventh Brigade and commanded by Charles Cross, a rising star in the Ankerton Rebellion."
"Clos? He is from the Clos family?" The young noble asked rhetorically. Then, his adjutant nodded and gave the answer.
"He is the grandson of Marshal Debra," the adjutant replied.
"Marshal Debra's grandson? Interesting." A meaningful smile appeared on the young nobleman's face. "If possible, I would really like to meet him on the battlefield and see how strong Marshal Debra's grandson is."
"It's really tiresome to always fight against the rabble. Those so-called National Army are like inexhaustible bed bugs, killing one group after another. I hope that Charlie can live up to my expectations of him."
……
Charlie did not know that he had been targeted by the enemy. After his seventh brigade entered Devon Province, he rushed directly to the provincial capital city of Nava. Under the continuous attack of the rebels, the National Army withdrew all the way to Nava. The outskirts built a defensive line. Although they retreated again and again, there is no way out now. If Nava City falls, the rebels can enter Reed and Pad provinces without hindrance, and finally hit the Ankerton region.
The National Assembly also knew the importance of Nawa City. They sent a member of parliament to command the National Army around Nawa City long before Charlie's arrival, and integrated the National Army into the new Southern First Front Army. And his seventh brigade is also subject to the command of the congressman.
On December 7th, Charlie's department entered Nava City. Before they entered the city, they could vaguely hear the rumble of cannons coming from the other side of the city. Few residents dared to go out on the street, and all they could see was the only sight. National Army soldiers with rifles in their hands - they did not have uniform uniforms, so at first glance Charles thought of the armed citizens in the Great Revolution.
Seeing this regular army in uniform, the soldiers of the National Army consciously walked to both sides of the street and greeted the friendly army entering the city with their eyes. There was hope in the eyes of the army.
Not long after, Charlie met the commander of the First Southern Front who was sent here at the city hall of Nava City. To his surprise, the commander was actually an acquaintance of him and also had a relationship with him. Blood ties - Uncle Gunila Close, Undersecretary of the War Department.
Perhaps he had long expected that Charlie would be surprised by his presence here. Gunila, dressed in a gold-trimmed military uniform, walked around the desk, led Charlie to sit down, and explained to him:
"The military talents of the Santos Party have been distrusted by the National Assembly after the defeat of the Capital Division. The members of the National Assembly have more confidence in the Clos family, who came from the military. Therefore, I was jointly elected as the commander of the First Front Army and received the rank of brigadier general."
"I'm afraid it's not a good job." Charlie curled his lips and said: "The National Army is a group of untrained militiamen-to say that the militiamen praise them, they are a group of rabble, except for a moment of bravery. Nothing."
"That's true, so the council only asked us to stay in Nava City until the new reinforcements arrive. They have recruited two new divisions in the Ankerton region, but they will not be able to fight until April next year at the earliest. ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ How many troops are the enemies blocked outside the city?" Charlie asked
"Well... the enemy's second and third divisions have launched a double-team attack on Nava City from the east and the south respectively. The troops they invested are about 35,000 people. Judging by the scale of their shelling, They have deployed at least two dozen infantry guns. In addition to this, the soldiers on the front line have also reported that there is a high probability that a cavalry division has been deployed in the enemy army,"
After finishing speaking, Gunila's mood suddenly became a little excited: "We have more than 60,000 troops deployed in and out of Nawa City, twice as many as the enemy, but even so, we are still suppressed by the enemy in the city, only It's a shame to be able to passively defend!"
Charlie didn't feel much. He comforted his uncle a few words, and then said solemnly, "General Cross, please give an order. The enemy dares to be so arrogant, we must teach them a lesson."
Seeing that Charlie suddenly became serious, Gunilla's eyes flashed with relief. He nodded and said, "Very good, Charlie, come with me."
After speaking, he took Charlie to the desk where the military map was placed, pointed to the flag representing the enemy in the east of Nava City, and said, "As you can see, the enemy has been deployed on Mount Nava in the east of the city. An infantry brigade and six infantry guns, through the artillery positions here, the enemy can bombard our lines outside the city from a commanding height."
"Charlie, I hope you can capture the artillery positions on Mount Nawa within five days, build a defensive line along the mountain, and transfer the threat of artillery bombardment to the enemy. Can you do it?"
"As ordered, Nawa Mountain will be captured within five days, and the good news will be delivered to your desk."
Charlie gave a military salute, then turned and left.
