Ultimate Weapon of Magic and Science

The deployment of front-line field troops such as the "Prince Eugen" brigade to the border is not a conclusion made after a whim, but a decision made after fully dialectic and calculation based on the actual international political environment and objective needs.

The rise of the elf camp is a foregone conclusion, no matter whether the countries like it or not, it cannot change this established fact. What makes the countries more depressed is that in front of someone strong enough to foul, even the option of flipping the table to show off is unrealistic. Even if the determination is the same, the result will only be a unilateral slaughter. It was the party that was ravaged and massacred.

There are no suicide volunteers in the upper echelons of various countries. In the face of the harsh facts, they can only choose to bow their heads.

However, as many historical allusions have told the world, many times things cannot be seen on the surface. When a country or a person bows their heads to show obedience, you can’t see a deep expression on the face, let alone Make it clear what kind of calculations there are under those faces. There have been too many cases in history because conquistadors lost their lives because they were cheated by the submissive appearance of the conquered nation. The elves did not want to be one of them.

So the "Prince Eugen" brigade was sent to Evian to take charge of border control and to eliminate the Charlemagne's remnants.

In the Battle of Rhein, the main forces of the Royal Charlemagne Army were completely destroyed, but this does not mean that the Charlemagne army and armed forces disappeared. Some surviving troops that did not participate in the Battle of the Rhine were either disbanded on the spot or transferred to the ground in large numbers. At the same time, a large number of weapons and ammunition flowed into the people for various reasons. For a time, various armed groups have sprung up everywhere in Charlemagne. Among them are hard soldiers who are reluctant to accept failure, private armies of speculative groups, armed escorts of landlords and nobles, and village villages as units. Ministries and home escorts. These organizations are not affiliated with each other, and their ideas conflict with each other. In order to grab territory and resources, they are even more aggressive. During this period, the elves were busy fighting economic warfare and had no time to control the Charlemagne. When the dust of the economic war was settled, the defensive army that no longer stood by and watched quickly moved. The majestic "encirclement and suppression" quickly swept the entire territory of Charlemagne, and countless armed organizations overwhelmed.

The progress in the border area has been somewhat less satisfactory than that of the indiscriminate Qing Dynasty in the Mainland.

Especially in the mountainous area bordering Serres, the bandits' progress has not even reached unsatisfactory progress.

Since ancient times, the harsh geographical environment has given birth to sturdy folk customs, and the so-called "poor mountains and evil rivers bring out people" refers to this situation. The Swiss, Serbs, Afghans, and Caucasians of another world are all mountain people who are known for their good guerrilla warfare. Many regular empire of powerful empire in history have suffered from these unruly mountain people. The residents of the Charlemagne mountain zone may not have good individual soldiers, but the influx of a large number of weapons and former soldiers quickly complemented the lack of combat effectiveness of the mountain people, coupled with the hard-working style of all the soldiers and dead fights, making the defense army also I dare not underestimate the difficulty of this siege. What's more troublesome is that the people in the area bordering Charlemagne and Serres were relatively indifferent to the national consciousness. For them, the long border line is just like the existence of road signs. The blood on both sides of the border line is interlinked and the relationship is closely related. Not uncommon. Once the combat is unfavorable, after the guerrillas are in a low tide, they are likely to go to the relatives at the other end of the border, or they may go underground to lurk to receive assistance from abroad (may be spontaneous, or officially authorized by Serres), slowly After regaining strength, chaos again. This complex situation will inevitably make it more difficult for the Qing to suppress. It is not always possible to send Cyrus directly to fight the bandits.

The General Staff once wanted to solve the trouble by blocking the border, but they soon discovered that this was not practical at all. First of all, they did not have so many troops on hand. Now in order to control the occupied area, the Imperial Defence Force has invested the vast majority of the mobile troops on hand. The domestic second-line garrison troops have also been adjusted almost. Even so, they have only barely reached their goals. If we then deploy troops to blockade the border, the Imperial Defence Force can only deploy garrisons in some key cities along the road, railway and river supply lines, and hand over the land outside the city and the transportation line to the Charlemagne. This is obviously that they cannot Accepted.

Is it possible to launch a large-scale siege operation and invest a large number of troops at once to completely eliminate these troubles? What is more, you can also issue orders to intimidate the people who assist the guerrillas, for example, every casualty will be made up of 50 to 100 local defense forces. People’s lives to pay for it; any action by local civilians to help the guerrillas will result in their own immediate execution; if someone is confirmed to have joined the guerrillas, all family members and relatives will be hanged; As the Castilla's occupation experience shows, no matter how heavy the troops are, the use of guerrillas in the mountains is always lacking in strength and means. As for trying to spread terror to stop resistance, it has proved to be counterproductive countless times.

After research and discussion, the General Staff determined that in the current form, whether it is to mobilize the army to siege or to mobilize the troops to block the border, it is an impossible goal~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Then the feasible means to replace it can only be invested on a small scale The special operations unit launched a raid on the guerrillas' garrison and core figures-in the military terminology invented by the emperor, it was "beheading operation"-with a violent raid, the guerrillas were suddenly plunged into a chaotic situation with no heads, and then each Break it down and wipe it out. The entry of the "Prince Eugen" brigade is the outpost of this combat operation code-named "Rosselsprung" (meaning a powerful and unexpected blow on the chess board).

According to the action plan, the mission of the "Prince Eugen" brigade in the initial stage of the plan was to attract the sight of the guerrillas, familiarize themselves with the local combat environment, and provide an important basis for the second phase of operations. This unit is already specialized in mountain combat, and its ability to adapt and familiarize with the mountains is much faster than that of ordinary army troops. It also has a say in the use of various equipment in mountain warfare. They provide first-hand information. It will inevitably have a major impact on the success of subsequent operations. At the same time, as a mountain combat brigade, the entry of the "Prince Eugen" brigade in a border distribution center like Evian will inevitably attract attention, and the guerrillas who are also good at mountain warfare will certainly pay attention to the movement of the force and spare no effort To attack the supply line and try to undermine the preparations for the "Prince Eugen" brigade. In this way, most of their intelligence eyeliners and military forces are contained, and intelligence agencies can more easily avoid the sight of the guerrillas and collect the intelligence that is essential for beheading operations.

In short, the "Prince Eugen" brigade is a guise, a decoy used to attract sight and bullets, and is used to cover up the Imperial Defense Force's real combat intentions. For the officers and men of the "Prince Eugen" brigade, this means that they are destined to spend a depressing time.
