Chapter 625 Launching a General Offensive
"I need you to attack this target!"

"I need you to attack this target again!"

"You must attack this target!"

……

In the command center, Eugene gave combat orders to everyone next to the sand table.

The results of this morning's battle have been confirmed. The gunpowder explosion and a rapid fire from a base caused the death of King Dos of the Kingdom of Madeira and several nobles. The Royal Mage Corps was behind the artillery position and half of them were killed.

The pieces of armor with remains picked up from cleaning the battlefield were barely enough to piece Doss back together.

A large number of people were stunned and captured, including those lucky Gallic instructors.

After identification by the captives, it was confirmed that a grand duke, three dukes and seven earls had also died and their identities were confirmed. The identities of two earls could not be confirmed because their bodies were too broken, and their titles were judged only from the material of their armor.

Now the defeated soldiers were retreating around the Sampaio Castle, and Eugene asked the captured nobles to bring back the bodies of Dos and others in the evening.

Just as Eugene expected, the enemy's morale dropped to zero.

The next step is to completely devour the entire legion.

Eugene pointed to a bridge over a river and said, "Sir Dennis, please destroy this bridge completely."

This is an important bridge for the Madeira army to withdraw to the interior of the country, more than 30 kilometers away from the front line.

This task was easy for Dennis. It was just a matter of smashing the bridge pier with a few sword strikes.

Then Eugene pointed to a castle and said, "Sir Dickson, please cooperate with the Air Force to destroy this castle and make the enemy lose their stronghold."

Dixon nodded and said, "No problem, I will destroy the walls and gates."

The castle has a complete defense system, which would be very difficult to defeat if deployed, so a sneak attack is the best option.

As long as the walls and gates of the castle are destroyed, the defeated soldiers will no longer have the desire to defend the castle, and it will be easy to capture them.

Eugene said to William, the commander of the 31st Regiment: "William, the 31st Regiment is the spearhead of the attack this time. We must seize these strongholds and bridges as soon as possible!"

He then said to the commander of the 32nd Regiment, Erwin: "The 32nd Regiment and the 31st Regiment will attack together, occupy these key points, and block all the enemy's retreat routes!"

William and Erwin immediately stood at attention and shouted, "We must complete the mission!"

The two regiments and the scattered mage regiments will occupy a series of important traffic routes and form a huge encirclement network.

When the headquarters issued the order, the grassroots officers and soldiers were having extra meals, and all food and drinks were freely available. There was an order to set off at midnight.

Many people looked at Metzger with envy. He was the one who made the first contribution in commanding the killing of Doss. No one knew what kind of reward he would get this time. Maybe he would be promoted to a higher title.

Some company commanders and platoon leaders were envious and regretful. They didn't want to go up the mountain and feel the cold wind, so they made many excuses.

This time, the biggest credit would be to have eyes, but I just missed it.

Orders from the command center were passed down layer by layer, and the 31st and 32nd Regiments set out at midnight, taking a detour to occupy key points on the roads.

The soldiers who set out at midnight took the time to rest after dinner.

At the same time, the soldiers around Sampaio Castle were in low spirits, and the small and medium-sized nobles ran to the merchants accompanying the army a few kilometers away to suppress their fears with alcohol and women. Everyone was anxious and fights broke out one after another.

In the woods, two knights were drinking together.

The young knight took a sip and said, "What if an enemy attacks now?"

The old knight shook his head and said, "This is a forest. No cavalry will come. If it is infantry, we can escape to the city."

The young knight thought it made sense, it was a fool to leave the cavalry in the woods, and he couldn't help but look back at the castle to determine the direction.

In the castle, the nobles were already quarreling.

Dos died with no clear heir to the throne, and the worst injury suffered by his nine sons was just a sprained foot.

A country cannot live without a ruler for a day.

The eldest prince was the first to be targeted. Even the incident of him touching a maid's butt when he was four years old was dug up. As for how his younger brothers knew about it, it was probably groundless.

Amid the noise and bustle, it was already three o'clock in the morning of the next day.

Eusebio sat quietly in the corner, watching a group of people quarreling, feeling tired.

He is the god of dark magic. He went with the army this time, but he didn't expect to receive the order to defend the castle today.

This person was obviously marginalized by Doss. The reason was that he was not from the Kingdom of Madeira, but came from the southern continent and was employed by Doss. Recently, a rising star in the Kingdom of Madeira emerged who had reached his level.

Eusebio couldn't help it, so he stood up and said, "Everyone, take a rest first and prepare for defense tomorrow."

He didn't care whether others paid attention to him or not, and went straight back to his room. Now that the original boss was dead, the future bosses each had their own backers, and no one paid attention to him after arguing all night.

Eusebio thought that he was out of work and had to find another job.

Where to go next?

A thought came into his mind.

As the saying goes, as soon as the thought of joining Wei Sen came to mind, the world seemed so vast.

Eusebio read every issue of the Duchy of Wessen's academic journal on dark magic. There, dark magic that temporarily weakens the properties of materials is used in metal processing to reduce processing difficulty and cost.

Eusebio thought that the Principality of Wessen seemed to be facing the problem of difficulty in processing elemental alloys and temporarily weakening their strength. He had some experience in this regard, so why not give it a try?

He was thinking intently, and when he came to his senses, Eugene was handing him a cup of hot tea.

Eugene was now trembling in his heart. He had never heard of the existence of a magic god on the opposite side before. The two sword masters, Dennis and Dixon, had already left, and this great god suddenly appeared at the door of the headquarters.

Eusebio took the tea, took a sip, and asked, "Do you have emperor's water?"

Eugene immediately said, "Yes, please wait."

He immediately went to the refrigerator next to him and took out a bottle of happy water. When he saw Eusebio holding up two fingers, he took out another bottle.

Eusebio drank two bottles of happy water in one gulp, burped, and sighed: "This is the enjoyment of an emperor."

Eugene asked cautiously, "Excuse me, what brings you here so late at night?"

Eusebio said: "Don't be nervous, I just want to know something..."

On the other side, in the dark forest, Mary asked the signalman to ask Eugene if he needed Marshal Hicks' help, and the signalman quickly replied that he didn't need it.

Mary breathed a sigh of relief and asked someone to check the time. It was one minute to four in the morning.

She ordered the entire army to prepare and lower their helmet visors.

There was a sound of metal colliding in the woods.

At this moment, a deafening explosion was heard in the distance. The artillery's 33th Miss, the rd Regiment's mortars, and various rocket launchers opened fire at the same time.

Amid the continuous explosions, flares slowly fell from the sky, like angels of the God of Light bringing down divine punishment, and the believers of the Earth God Cult trembled in fear.

Mary drew her saber, swung it forward, and shouted, "For the glory of the Empire!"

She took the lead, with the sound of horse hooves rumbling behind her.

Most countries would not place cavalry in the woods, but the Osmaga Empire had access to all kinds of terrain, and its proud hussars could gallop on horseback anywhere except in the water, appearing where the enemy least expected.

The two knights holding bottles of wine stared in amazement as they watched a black warhorse gallop past them, and in the distance were countless cavalrymen.

Mary took the lead and rushed into the chaotic crowd in the woods.

She was furious. The Osmaga Empire had declined, and she had heard a lot of sarcasm from outsiders in the past two years.

Now, we need sabers and the blood of pagans to tell everyone that the fire dragon that once dominated the world is just taking a short rest.

Behind her is a group of young people eager to achieve success.

They are children without inheritance rights in aristocratic families and are backups for their older brothers and sisters. When they grow up, they can only get a sum of money to go out and make a living, or spend the rest of their lives in a manor.

Now, an opportunity, an opportunity to start a family genealogy book by yourself is right in front of you.

Behind the cavalry, the infantrymen holding pea-shot rifles ran to catch up. Right in front of them were military merits and rewards!
They followed the Rose Armor in front of them, thanking the great Grand Duke Wessen who proposed building a new army, and chopped the heads of the pagans with their sabers.

Mary was the first to rush out of the woods and arrived at the castle. The enemy's blood dyed her rose armor and horse red. Under the light of the flares, she was like a devil appearing in the darkness!
Without stopping, she led her best troops to rush towards the city gate and attack the castle. The rest of the hussars scattered through the camp like a comb, and the infantry set up a defense line at the edge of the woods.

In this battle, the new army of the Osmaga Empire was the main force attacking from south to north. The 33rd Regiment of the Wesson Army established defense lines on the east and north sides of the woods to prevent the enemy from escaping. On the west, except for the 3rd Cavalry Regiment that raided the camp of merchants accompanying the army, the rest of the army allowed people to escape.

The city gate was so crowded with people that the drawbridge could not be raised.

The magician behind Mary released magic spells at the fastest speed, blowing off the iron locks of the drawbridge and bombarding the people at the city gate.

The people on the city walls and near the city gates trembled as they watched the cavalry gallop away, leaving behind a long trail of blood.

When Mary reached the castle gate, someone remembered that there was a great god in the castle and shouted, "Quick! Quick! Go and invite Eusebio!"

At the same time, Eusebio said to Eugene in surprise: "Converting knowledge into productivity is so profitable?!"

"Then I will go back tomorrow and take my family and students to Weissenburg."
