Macho Wars

In such a comparison between the two phases, these foolish people who have no concept of nation and country in their minds naturally choose to surrender to those who are better to them.

It is worth mentioning that Dragun also specifically suggested to Henry that when the administrative staff sent from the colony in the future arrive in the islands, schools and literacy classes will be built there to teach the islanders to learn Sidney and writing.

Afterwards, Dragon himself also recalled how these things he did were so similar to those that little Japanese devils did in the northeast, and he couldn't help feeling a very subtle discomfort.

In this way, a whole month passed without knowing it, and the last batch of troops and supplies arrived at the Zhibodan Islands smoothly.

So far, the Imperial Army has secretly assembled a mixed brigade, 36 transport ships and 15 combat ships on this island in the remote waters of the Northern Ocean, with a total of 13,000 navy and army troops.

And Lieutenant General Henry finally announced the full picture of the revenge plan for the first time at a combat meeting where all mid- and high-level officers were present.The most important confidential content is the landing site of this battle.

According to the original plan, the colonial military area that has completed the expansion and training will mobilize five divisions and an army of about 70,000 people in three months to head to the border of the colony of Wieland.

The initial task of the main force was to pretend to attack, try to restrain the attention of the Kingdom Army, so that the enemy's forces were forced to gather at the border between China and the mainland.The strike brigade secretly assembled in the Zhibodan Islands will go around to the enemy's rear to carry out landing operations three weeks after the main army Chen Bing's enemy border, that is, in the early morning of January 1, 8993.

The first landing site is located in the northeastern part of the Wieland Colony. There is a water area called Water Ghost Bay. Because of the dense reefs, large ships will not easily approach here.

The landing fleet will first come here. In a deep water area four kilometers away from the shore, one tank company and half an infantry battalion from the armored battalion will be put down and they will land on the beach in small boats with shallow drafts.

All tanks participating in the operation will be equipped with special floating equipment in advance, so that the tank can float on the water and move slowly at a speed of six kilometers per hour.

However, because the stability of these amphibious tanks on the water surface is not high, the landing must be selected in a calm time period, otherwise the enemy does not need to do anything, a little wind and waves can send these tanks to the seabed as a reef.

After the first troops landed in Death Bay, they had to move south to Harvey Beach, about eight kilometers away, within an hour to seize the second landing field for the large troops.

Judging from the situation sent back by the spies, there is a permanent fortification built by the Royal Army on Harvey Beach, and about two companies of coastal defense troops are stationed.

Although this group of people is not strong enough, it is absolutely impossible to stop the forcible assault of the strike brigade, but 17 kilometers southwest of the beach is the military center of the Royal Army—Tarona, where the third colonial division of Wieland is stationed. It is the garrison of the capital Kanswea. Unless the main force of the Imperial Army breaks through the fortress group on the border, this trump card will never take a half step.

That is to say, if the Strike Brigade cannot take down Harvey Beach quietly, just a phone call from the other side can call for reinforcements from a division.

Therefore, the leading forces will first send an elite SEAL team to infiltrate the enemy camp to destroy communication equipment, and then cooperate with the attacking forces to annihilate the enemy forces as quickly as possible.

If all goes well, the entire strike brigade can complete the landing before dawn and advance quickly inland.After landing, the troops will avoid the Third Colonial Division and go straight to the border fortress hundreds of kilometers away.

As the old saying goes, no matter how strong a fortress is, you are afraid of being breached from the inside, and a man with fierce rebirth can easily be attacked from behind.

Although the front of the fortress group built by the Kingdom Army relying on the mountains is difficult to break, more than 90% of the firepower points are on the west, and the inner east is not the focus of defense.

If all goes well, the strike brigade that successfully circumvents the back can hit the Kingdom Army by surprise, and quickly tore a hole in the line of defense, allowing the front main force to break through.

Once the fortress is broken, the Royal Army has no danger to defend anymore, and the Empire Army will sweep the entire Wirant colony like a flood.

However, in the plan, the Imperial Army did not intend to occupy the kingdom’s colonies. The task of the army was to rush into the opponent’s house, smash, loot, and burn, take back the losses previously looted by the Kingdom Army, and then retreat actively.

The reason for not occupying the land is that, on the one hand, it is because it spans the entire New World, and the long supply line is prone to encounter the same dilemma as the original Kingdom Army. On the other hand, it is to avoid the expansion of war.

We must know that the empire is currently in the stage of cultivation. The army suffered losses during the previous local wars. In addition, this year's growth was not good. Natural disasters occurred in various parts of the country. Agricultural production was reduced by nearly 20% compared with previous years. In terms of time, it is really not suitable for a big battle.

Therefore, the empire's senior officials understood that this was a disciplinary counterattack. It not only needed to hurt those damn Virants, but also controlled the intensity of the war within a range acceptable to both the enemy and the enemy.

If an endless all-out war breaks out between two of the best powers in the Old Continent, and both lose in the end, other countries are afraid that they will laugh out loud!

Chapter 156

When the strike brigade on the archipelago began targeted amphibious landing training, at the same time, on the side of the Virant colony, the third prince Charles was standing in front of the French windows of the Governor's Palace, looking at the scenery outside the window with great attention.

A few months ago, after three years of preparations, the Kingdom Army in the colony assembled 120,000 troops to launch an invasion of the Imperial colony.

In the early stages of the war, the well-prepared Royal Army was indeed in a state of failure, pushing all the way to Port Pandora, almost pushing the colonial troops of the Imperial Army into the sea.The result was at the final moment when the victory was about to be achieved, but because the logistics base was destroyed by a small group of guerrillas composed of remnants of the Imperial Army, the victory was ultimately defeated.

As a last resort, Charles could only withdraw his troops to the homeland in a hurry, full of unwillingness.

After returning, Charles was soon criticized and criticized by political enemies from all sides in the country because of his defeat in the war.Those big people who are used to standing and talking without pain condemned him for commanding incompetence and underestimating the enemy's aggressive advances, and wasting a lot of resources provided to him by the state.

However, if it is reasonable, Charles's performance in this war is actually quite good, and it can be evaluated as excellent.The actual losses of the troops under his command were not high. The 120,000 army only killed more than 8,000 people, but they wiped out nearly 30,000 imperial army.

It's a pity that Charles was exhausted, but after all, he was a hundred secrets. The logistics base was bombed, and he also lost his brother who came to the front line to take credit.

Therefore, the "artillery fire" directed at Charles by a faction headed by the Minister of the Army was particularly fierce.

We must know that the current Minister of the Ministry of War of the Kingdom of Wieland is the grandfather of His Majesty the King's father-in-law and mentor and the sixth prince Durham.Not only does his old man have a high position, but the family behind him is even more powerful. It is a decisive political power in the upper echelons of the kingdom.

This is also the main reason why Durham's personal ability is very mediocre, but it can also become a strong contender for the next King of Wieland.

In contrast, Charles's mother was just a court lady who was fortunate enough to be favored by the king. Although she was also a nobleman, her grade was not even worse than that of the sixth prince's natal family.

After the Sixth Prince Durham was captured by the Imperial Army, the kingdom was shaking up and down.Other contenders for the throne are gloating, and the Minister of Military Affairs thinks that Charles is doing a ghost. The so-called imperial army guerrillas may be the dead soldiers raised by Charles, in order to get Durham out of the throne competition. .

Therefore, the resentment minister of the military has been tirelessly trying to impeach Charles for several months.

King Wieland couldn't stand the other party's persistence. Even if he knew that the fault was not entirely on Charles, he still gave an edict to let Charles go back to his country to report on his work.

Looking at the recall message sent from the local area, Charles felt mixed for a while.Looking at the prosperous and busy port outside the window, he couldn't help but return to eight years ago.

Eight years ago, Charles left the mainland and traveled across the oceans to the colony of Wieland on the east coast of the New World as governor.

At that time, the Wilant colony had a total population of only four to five million people. The source of income mainly relied on plantations and mineral development. There were almost no industrial facilities, and there was no factory. It was even located in Kanswia, the capital of Lavin County Both are still in the planning stage.Everything awaits you.

So Charles, full of ambitions, began his own struggle in this wild land.

Relying on his ingenuity and outstanding skills, the colony flourished under his governance and developed rapidly in just a few years. As a result, he was appreciated by his father and king. From a transparent prince who was not favored by anyone, he became a throne. competitor.Unfortunately……

"Bangbangbang..."

A dull knock on the door brought Charles' thoughts back to reality from the memory, and his secretary opened the door and walked in, his expression seemingly hesitant.

"he came?"

"Yes, Lord Governor, the ship of the Fourth Prince still has 20 minutes to enter the port, are you..."

The secretary in his early forties lowered his head. He was a little afraid to look at the prince who had served him for eight years, for fear that he could not hold back the tears in his eyes.

Eight years ago, he was one of the twelve entourages of Charles. He witnessed the development of the colony from dilapidated to prosperous, without any difficulties or obstacles that could defeat the prince.This also made him believe from the bottom of his heart that Charles is the best candidate for the next king.

But the big figures in the country treated Charles too unfairly. Just because of one failure, they wanted to step on 10,000 feet.

Just last month, the king issued an edict to remove Charles from the post of governor of the colony, to call him back to the mainland. His successor was Muratou, the fourth prince of the kingdom.For the colony, this is tantamount to changing the ranks.

The big figures in the homeland seem to think that the hot part of the war is over. The empire is bargaining with the kingdom for the hostage of the six princes. Next is the time for diplomats to show their skills.

Although the empire has strengthened their army in the colony, its strength is only 80,000, which is still not as good as the Kingdom Army, which has 100,000.Coupled with the impenetrable natural defense line, it is completely unafraid of the imperial attack.

Charles didn't say anything about it, because he knew it was useless to say anything at this time.

With a group of colonial government officials, Charles came to the port by car. At this time, on the sea not far away, a majestic and majestic ship was slowly entering the port area under the tugboat.

The military band that had been preparing for a long time at the pier immediately played a cheerful welcome song.
