Rise of the Empire Total War

Dig deep here to strengthen the earth wall in front of you.

Check the ammunition stockpile and clear the battlefield!

There are wounded here! Military doctor! Military doctor! Come!

On the temporary position of the Second Regiment of the Second Brigade, all kinds of shouts were intertwined in the mid-air of this place. Looking around, you could see many soldiers who took off their military formations and exposed their white underwear wielding shovels and other tools, digging out a A man-high ditch. Among them were some soldiers carrying stretchers that had been rushed in, and carried the dying wounded soldiers to the direction of the military doctor (the so-called military doctor is the chaplain of the army. At the request of Richard, all the chaplains of the army must learn medical skills , whether it is internal medicine or surgery, you must have a skill anyway).

In addition, some soldiers also dragged the wreckage of the supply carriage whose flames had been extinguished to the front of the position under the order of the officer. As part of the fortification, the self-destruction of the artillery caused the supply carriage connected to the artillery to also die. Some of them were broken into fragments, and only a small part was not seriously damaged and could be dragged over for waste utilization.

As time progressed, all kinds of bad news also reached Edward's ears, because the supply carriages were all killed, and the soldiers also consumed most of the ammunition they carried in previous battles, so the remaining ammunition is only It is possible for the soldiers to fight another small-scale battle. If the remaining ammunition is exhausted, they can only hold up their bayonets and fight the enemy hand-to-hand.

Fortunately, they can still find some unused ammunition from the dead soldiers, and the grenadiers in the regiment can throw their own grenades at critical moments, which can turn the tide (hopefully) . Every soldier still has hope, in their opinion, the brigade commander Butters will come to save them with invincible reinforcements.

However, the imagination is very full, and the reality is very skinny. The reinforcements in their fantasy have been turned into dead bodies and buried in a hastily dug pit. After pickling and embalming, it was collected by the leader of Kurban as a spoil of war. And the small group of carbine cavalry they sent was also called one by one by the chasing barbarian cavalry, and all died on the road. It can be said that the Second Regiment has fallen into a desperate situation, and their demise is doomed, and it is only a matter of time.

In the anticipation of the soldiers of the second regiment, the reinforcements still did not arrive after all. Instead, they were replaced by the enemy's main force, which was a mixture of aggressive barbarian cavalry and King Lumi's army. Looking at the enemy that almost occupied the entire horizon , the Winster soldiers on the ground fell into deep despair. They are not fools. Since they are not reinforcements, but the main force of the enemy, it means that the friendly forces still in Iluberis are in dire straits. .

After thinking about this point clearly, the soldiers also had a small-scale riot in despair.

Enter your respective posts, don't panic!

See those soldiers in confusion,

Officers at all levels hurriedly spoke out to appease, but under the threat of death, how effective would the officers' appeasement be? Although those soldiers were calm on the surface, the despair in their eyes and trembling limbs revealed the extreme fear in their hearts.

Seeing all this, Andre Karen was also in the desperate group. Before he could give an order, the adjutant beside him spoke first, and said in a trembling voice: Break out, sir, we can't fight the enemy.

Yes, sir, let's break through! Before the main force of the enemy army arrives.

Swallowing the saliva accumulated in his mouth, Edward took a deep breath, suppressed the fear in his heart, and responded to his adjutants pretending to be calm: Do you think we can break out now? The enemy's cavalry is dead Keep an eye on us, if we dare to leave the position, those damned cavalry will rush over without hesitation and hack all of us to death.

Then are we going to wait here to die? An officer questioned. Edward glanced at him and found that his legs were shaking violently. If I remember correctly, this is a little noble who just graduated from a military academy. never faced such a predicament.

The officer's words aroused the echoes of the others. Seeing them, Edward couldn't help but smile a few times. Now, except for those veterans with rich experience and achievements, most of the middle- and lower-level officers in Wang's army are from the army. The airborne young people who graduated from the military academy, they talk about military affairs on paper, have rarely participated in wars, and have not seen the battlefield so thoroughly. It takes time for them to accumulate experience, but these unlucky officers have no chance to accumulate experience. experienced.

Break out, we must break out, but we must first deal with the enemy cavalry in the distance. Edward said to several officers, his eyes flashed with determination, as if he had made up his mind, and said: Leave two brigades behind. The remaining troops will stay in the position to block the enemy's pursuit, and the rest will take advantage of this time to speed up and evacuate to the south!

What?! Everyone was shocked. Before they had time to say something suspicious, Edward stared and scolded: Don't hesitate, go and deliver the order immediately!

... Several officers hesitated for a moment before agreeing in unison, each passing on Edward's order. They are all graduates from the military academy, so they naturally understand Edward's intentions. , still no objection.

Soon, Edward's order was spread throughout the army, and the two brigades with the least damage were voluntarily left to serve as the docked tails of the geckos. In order to allow them to last longer, almost every evacuated soldier will wear All the ammunition was left to them, and those grenadiers who represented the elite of the brigade also stayed with their grenades. The tenacity of the system soldiers was vividly reflected at this moment. It is very unbearable, but now, in order for more comrades in arms to retreat safely, they all swear to God that they will take root in this position.

Next, under the gaze of the barbarian cavalry, most of the infantry of the second regiment moved to the south under the leadership of Edward as a company. There were hundreds of people standing behind the retreating infantry. Seeing this, the leader The commander was afraid that they would run away and that he would be punished by the leader of Kurban, so he hurriedly sent someone to report to the leader who was about to arrive, and at the same time personally led the cavalry under his command to march towards the Wensters' position.

The large group of cavalry rode their horses and galloped at the same time, and the originally calm ground shook again. Even though the retreating infantry knew that there was someone covering behind them, they subconsciously fell into chaos!
