Rise of the Overlord

Chapter 324 Everything is ready
Although the Ice Lion Army has not launched a second attack on Yueyang City due to the suppression of human rebels in the country, but in other battlefields within the territory of the Great Qin Kingdom, the Ice Lion Army is still invincible, and has captured a large area of ​​the Great Qin Kingdom. land.

And the troops of the Great Qin State in various regions, because of the lack of weapons and ammunition, were beaten back and forth by the Ice Lion Army, making the situation of the entire Great Qin State worse and worse.

As of the end of May in 2538 in the divine calendar, almost two-thirds of the land of the Great Qin Kingdom had fallen, and the area directly controlled by the Great Qin Kingdom's army had shrunk to about 400 million square kilometers.

At the beginning of June in the year 2538 in the divine calendar, the bigwigs of the Great Qin Army had no choice but to ask Su Yi for a batch of weapons and ammunition.

Su Yi did not refuse the request of the military bosses, and sent a large number of weapons and ammunition captured by the Ice Lion Army during the first Yueyang City defense battle to other Daqin army bases. It can be regarded as temporarily solving the problem of weapons and ammunition of some other Daqin Army troops.

Of course, Su Yi didn't give this batch of weapons and ammunition for nothing. With this large amount of weapons and ammunition, Su Yi obtained another 200 pilots from the Daqin Air Force, making the number of regular pilots under Su Yi's command break through [-] people.

During the eradication of the domestic human rebel army, the Ice Lion Army gathered hundreds of thousands of elite troops from the Ice Lion Army and hundreds of fighter planes from the Ice Lion Air Force. During the battle, the main force of the human rebel army was defeated, and the nine counties captured by the human rebel army were recaptured.

After this great battle, the remnants of the Human Rebel Army totaled less than 50, and more than 100 million officers and soldiers of the Rebel Army were wiped out or captured.

The remnants of the human resistance army were forced to withdraw into the mountains. The area originally captured by the human resistance army was brutally cleaned by the Ice Lion Army. Many civilians who were inclined to the Human Resistance Army were killed by the Ice Lion Army. However, more than 30 rebel officers and soldiers who were captured were massacred by the Ice Lion Army.

The mountainous area where the human rebel army retreated was not only vast in size, but also had a rather complicated terrain. It would not be easy for the Ice Lion Army to completely wipe out the human rebel army, especially the mechanized troops of the Ice Lion Army. Since they could not exert their due combat effectiveness, the Army Department of the Ice Lion Kingdom dispatched eight garrison infantry divisions composed entirely of orcs into the mountains to continue the siege, and the rest of the counter-insurgency troops were transferred to They entered the battlefield of Yueyang City in the Great Qin Kingdom.

On June 2538th, 28 in the divine calendar, the army of the Ice Lion Kingdom had gathered a Janitor tank and armored division, 42 Janitor mechanized infantry divisions, and [-] Orc-based infantry divisions in the east, west, and north directions of Yueyang City. A garrison infantry division composed of men.

On the evening of June [-]th, in the headquarters of the Ice Lion Army camp north of Phoenix Mountain, Field Marshal Kayano said in a deep voice to a large group of generals of the Ice Lion Army: "Those who participated in the second attack on Yueyang City The divisions have been assembled, and the Air Force has also stationed thousands of fighter planes at various airports around Yueyang City, ready to provide air fire support for our army at any time. The logistics department has also prepared sufficient supplies for each division through this period of time. ammunition and other supplies, and then it depends on the performance of your divisions."

As soon as Marshal Kayano's words fell, Vicor, the commander of the Third Guards Tank and Armored Division, said loudly: "Marshal, don't worry, we have gathered more than 170 million troops this time, and we will definitely be able to conquer the capital of the Great Qin Kingdom!"

Regardless of whether it was the dozens of divisions that participated in the first attack on Yueyang City or the dozen or so divisions that participated in the counter-insurgency in the country, after supplementation, they have now reached full strength, making the ice divisions that participated in the second attack on Yueyang City The lion country army has a total strength of more than 170 million.

Marshal Kayano immediately said in a deep voice: "Vikor, the Daqin army in Yueyang City is not comparable to other Daqin troops, otherwise we would not have failed in the first battle of Yueyang City before. The Three Guards Tank Armored Division joins the battlefield, and they must not underestimate the enemy. The Daqin army in Yueyang City is also equipped with a heavy tank, and there are quite a few of them. In addition, the Daqin army is also equipped with an individual anti-tank missile specially designed to deal with tanks. "

Vicor, the division commander of the [-]rd Guards Tank and Armored Division, smiled slightly: "Marshal, the Golden Lion heavy tanks equipped by our [-]rd Guards Tank and Armored Division can be said to be the most powerful tanks in the world. Anti-tank weapons should not pose too much threat to the Golden Lion heavy tank."

The Golden Lion heavy tank is the latest heavy tank equipped by the Ice Lion Army. It has a total combat weight of 43 tons, a crew of four, and a maximum road speed of 35 kilometers per hour. It is equipped with an 88mm tank gun, a parallel machine gun and An anti-aircraft machine gun, with a frontal armor of 85 mm and a side armor of [-] mm, can be described as a giant steel beast.

Among the heavy tanks equipped by the four major powers, the Golden Lion Heavy Tank has the best comprehensive performance. The Third Guards Tank Armored Division is equipped with a total of more than [-] Golden Lion Heavy Tanks. In addition, the Third Guards Tank Armored Division also has Equipped with more than [-] silver lion medium tanks.

Marshal Kayano frowned. He felt that Vicor didn't pay much attention to the Daqin army in Yueyang City, so he said, "Vicor, I'm going to start the second battle of Yueyang City tomorrow morning. You A heavy tank battalion was dispatched from the [-]rd Imperial Guard Tank and Armored Division to participate in the battle, and will cooperate with the [-]th Mechanized Infantry Division to participate in the attack on Yueyang City tomorrow morning."

The division commander of the [-]rd Guards Tank and Armored Division Vicker immediately said: "Marshal, why don't we let our [-]rd Guards Tank and Armored Division directly serve as the vanguard, our third Guards Tank and Armored Division..."

Before Vicor could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Marshal Kayano, "I want to see the performance of that heavy tank battalion first, and then decide how to use your third guard tank and armored division."

Vicor shrugged and said, "Then follow the Marshal's order! But I still don't think the tanks and anti-tank weapons of the Great Qin Army in Yueyang City will pose such a big threat to the Golden Lion heavy tank."

Just when Field Marshal Kayano of the Ice Lion Kingdom held a military meeting and was preparing to launch the second battle of Yueyang City in the morning of the next day, Su Yi also held a meeting of high-level military officers at the City Defense Command in Yueyang City. combat meeting.

In addition to Su Yi, the city defense commander of Yueyang City, the high-level military officers participating in this battle meeting also included Sun Guodong, the deputy commander of the city defense, Zhou Jianmin, the temporary commander of the First Army, Wu Youliang, the temporary commander of the Second Army, and the temporary commander of the Third Army. Chief Qian Rongli and Sun Peng, Commander of the Independent Division of the Daqin Air Force.

The family members of the three army commanders under Su Yi's command and other high-ranking officers have now been escorted to Yueyang City by the Ministry of National Defense.

Sun Guodong's hometown has long since fallen, so Sun Guodong's family members were not escorted to Yueyang City by the Ministry of National Defense. However, Su Yi has dispatched a capable team from the security regiment directly under the headquarters and sent them to Sun Guodong's hometown. Sun Guodong's parents and younger sister were brought back to Yueyang City safely.

The air force established by Su Yi in Yueyang City obtained the designation of the Independent Division of the Great Qin Air Force from the Ministry of National Defense, and Sun Peng was appointed by Su Yi as the commander of the Independent Division of the Great Qin Air Force.

Su Yi said in a deep voice to Sun Guodong, Sun Peng and the three temporary army commanders: "According to the information sent by the Ministry of National Defense, the Ice Lion Army has gathered a guard tank and armored division in three directions of Yueyang City. The 28 guard mechanized infantry divisions and 42 garrison infantry divisions, and the 42 garrison infantry divisions are all composed of orcs, and perhaps the second attack of the Ice Lion Army on Yueyang City will begin soon."

Sun Guodong, deputy commander of the city defense, said immediately: "Commander, the fortifications we built in Yueyang City have basically been completed, forming a three-dimensional fortification group from the ground to the ground, and some troops of the three temporary armies have also stationed in various urban areas. Even if the Ice Lion Army launches an attack now, we are confident that we can rely on the fortifications in Yueyang City to severely damage the attacking Ice Lion Army and firmly hold the capital of our Great Qin Kingdom."

Zhou Jianmin, the commander of the temporary first army, said immediately: "Commander, at present, the reorganization of all levels of our three temporary armies has been completed, and since June, each temporary army has successively formed twelve supplementary troops. The total strength of each temporary army has reached 65. In addition, each temporary army has sufficient weapons, equipment and ammunition. Our three temporary armies are fully confident of winning the second Yueyang City defense battle .”

Because of the agreement between Su Yi and the Ministry of National Defense, Su Yi not only recruited troops in Yueyang City and five counties controlled by his army, Su Yi expanded the scope of recruitment to several provinces around Yueyang City.

After completing the reorganization of the troops directly under the Yueyang City Defense Command and the three temporary armies at the end of May, Su Yi set up twelve supplementary regiments for each of the three temporary armies. More than 8000 people.

In addition, Su Yi also set up a garrison brigade of 8000 people in each of the five counties of Yuhong, Zhutian, Lanping, Danyan, and Huining. The strength has exceeded 210 million.

Of course, recruits accounted for the majority of such a large army, but relying on the weapons and equipment brought by Su Yi from the other two time and space, the combat effectiveness of each army unit under Su Yi's command is not weak.

Among the troops directly under the City Defense Command, Su Yi also formed three tank regiments, each with more than 69 Type [-] main battle tanks. These three tank regiments will become Su Yi's strongest counterattack weapon.

Then Sun Peng, the commander of the Independent Division of the Daqin Air Force, said excitedly: "Commander, at present, our Yueyang City Air Force Independent Division has equipped [-] Xiuniao fighter jets and [-] Goshawk dive bombers, which are distributed in Yuhong, Zhutian, Among the field airports in the five counties of Lanping, Danyan, and Huining, they are fully capable of competing with the Ice Lion Air Force for air supremacy in Yueyang City!"

The [-] Xiuniao fighter jets and [-] Goshawk dive bombers only refer to the fighter planes that have been delivered to the independent division of the Daqin Air Force. In fact, there are still hundreds of fighter planes that have not been spared in the aircraft assembly factory in Yuhong County. After completing the assembly, Su Yi moved a total of [-] Xiuniao fighter jets and [-] Goshawk dive bomber parts from the world on the side of the Tang Empire to the world on the side of the Great Qin Kingdom.

Su Yi nodded slightly and said: "Since all the troops are ready for the battle, I won't say much here. Anyway, everyone knows how important Yueyang City is to our entire Great Qin State. Once Yueyang City If we fail, we can even declare that our Great Qin Kingdom has been defeated in this war, so without my order, no army is allowed to give up an inch of land in Yueyang City, and those who violate the order will do so!"

After Su Yi finished speaking, the three commanders of the temporary army nodded, and Wu Youliang, the commander of the second temporary army, said next: "Commander, after the Ice Lion Army launched an attack, we must pay attention One point is to prevent the Ice Lion Army from cutting off the connection between Yueyang City and Yuhong County."

Su Yi agreed and said: "Youliang is right. We must guard against the Ice Lion Army. Now most of the troops of the three temporary armies are not stationed in the fortifications in the urban area of ​​Yueyang City, but are stationed in Yuyang City. In the five counties of Hong, Zhutian, Lanping, Danyan, and Huining, if the Ice Lion Army cuts off the passage between Yueyang City and Yuhong County, it will inevitably bring great harm to the troops in the urban area of ​​Yueyang City. Heart pressure."

In fact, Su Yi didn't care too much about the passage between Yueyang City and Yuhong County being cut off by the Ice Lion Army. You must know that Su Yi has three tank regiments equipped with Type 69 main battle tanks. The connection between Hong County was cut off, and Su Yi believed that with the assault capabilities of the three tank regiments, the connection between Yueyang City and Yuhong County could be opened again soon.

Su Yi then asked Sun Guodong, the deputy commander of the city defense: "Have all the people in Yueyang City been evacuated?"

In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, Su Yi ordered the transfer of more than 100 million old and weak women and children who were originally stranded in the urban area of ​​Yueyang City to the five counties of Yuhong, Zhutian, Lanping, Danyan, and Huining. The combat troops were left in the urban area of ​​the city.

Sun Guodong nodded and said: "Don't worry, Commander, the people in the urban area of ​​Yueyang City have all been evacuated and resettled in the five counties of Yuhong, Zhutian, Lanping, Danyan, and Huining."

Su Yi stood up, rubbed his hands and said: "It seems that we did a good job preparing for the battle before. Now everything is ready, and we are waiting for the Ice Lion Army to attack Yueyang City again, but everyone must remember, hold on Yueyang City is not our only target in the next battle, we want to use up the fortifications in the urban area of ​​Yueyang City to consume the vitality of the Ice Lion Army as much as possible and lay the foundation for a large-scale counterattack."
