The moment a large number of enemy troops were discovered, the border patrol team undoubtedly dispatched the soldier with the best riding skills at the first time, and rushed back to the Arcas Fortress as quickly as possible to report.
After hearing the report, the expressions of the three generals in charge of this border fortress all changed.
"The strength is close to 50,000? Are you sure you read it right?!"
"Report to the three generals, it is confirmed!"
After getting this answer, Bai Ze, Brigude and Liu Meng all felt a burst of pressure in their hearts.
Within the Arcas Fortress, only 30,000 troops were stockpiled, of which cavalry still accounted for a large proportion. If 50,000 troops on the opposite side pressed the border, it would be a difficult day.
Before he had time to think about it, the entire fortress suddenly sounded an alarm, and at this moment, the dragoon troops of the Europa army had already appeared in the outer area of ??the Arcas fortress.
"It's troublesome, there are also a lot of cavalry on the opposite side."
At this moment, both Bai Ze and Brigude's expressions were not very good-looking.
Originally, although the opponent's strength is superior, the cavalry troops under their command still have the advantage of mobility, and they can fully rely on this to deal with the opponent and consume their strength.
However, this tactic is obviously difficult to work under the premise that the opponent also has cavalry.
Not to mention that due to the previous big move by the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs, the cavalry and war horses allocated to the major fortresses were basically transferred from them.
In other words, the strength of the cavalry in the eastern border is not as good as before.
The number of rangers under Burigude's command is six thousand, while the number of light cavalry under Bai Ze's command is five thousand.
Facing the dragoon troops of the Europa army, their strength advantage is not great.
"Send the order, Arcas Fortress has entered the first-level state of preparation!"
Amidst the sound of the siren, the soldiers of the Arcas Fortress moved quickly.
It is worth mentioning here that Luo Ji had already mobilized a large number of badger and dwarf engineers in advance to set up semi-permanent trenches outside the border fortresses, knowing that he would definitely be picked on. Outside the Arcas Fortress, the same is obviously true.
Different from those temporary trenches, every barrier in this trench is poured with reinforced concrete. The defense capability exceeds those temporary trenches by many levels, not to mention the quality assurance of the dwarves. Said to be quite reassuring.
At this moment, in the trenches, a large number of garrison soldiers are obviously already in place. The cannons on the fortress and the mountain cannons placed behind the trenches have also adjusted their angles and can fire at any time.
In the distance, the dragoon troops of the Europa army did not approach easily, apparently waiting for the main force behind to arrive.
Under this premise, Bai Ze and Brigude undoubtedly need to leave early before this war starts.
When Luo Ji set up the Arcas Fortress, he was very particular about its location. He was almost stuck at an important pass in the Eastern Territory, which can be said to be the only way to enter the civilization of the Ten Thousand Realms. A long barbed wire fence was stretched around.
And if you want to bypass this pass, it will probably take a month or two, and then you will soon find out that there is also a sentry camp of the Myriad Realms civilization there. Yes, the camp fortress on the entire border, There are more than one place at all, but the Arcas Fortress is the outermost one.
Now let¡¯s get back to the topic, at this time, the Arcas Fortress has long been surrounded by a semi-permanent trench. In other words, there is such a trench blocked there, and the cavalry troops cannot freely enter and exit at all. This can be said to be a trench. One of the downsides of the campsite.
So and so, in order to avoid cheating their own people, the cavalry troops on the border have actually been stationed in another hidden camp outside.
Not long after Bai Ze and Brigud left quietly, the Europa army led by Alan Ballard officially came under pressure.
The military force formed by the 50,000 army is quite amazing. Standing in the Arcas Fortress, Liu Meng is already facing a formidable enemy at this moment.
However, the opponent didn't seem to be in a hurry to launch an offensive. They should be observing the structure of their trench camp.
To be honest, at this moment, Alan Ballard's mood can be said to be even worse.
Relying on his many years of experience in the South and North Wars, he can clearly feel the strength of that trench just by looking at it.
Alan Ballard is now wondering if he can bypass the trench.
However, according to his observations, I'm afraid it's no use. Looking at it from a distance, it canIt is obvious that the trench fortress is completely stuck at a pass, which should be the only way to pass.
Even if there is another way, I am afraid it will take a long time to go around, and their attack time limit is only one month, whether it is enough for them to go around is a problem.
It would be too ridiculous to spend all the limited attack time on detours, and it might even become an indelible stain in his entire military life.
"In short, let's take a look at how many troops the opponent has deployed in this trench"
With this in mind, Alan Ballard waved his hand, and the army behind him immediately moved into action.
Regarding the 50,000 troops behind him, he is obviously quite confident.
The horn of attack sounded soon, and the army began to advance.
Alan Ballard, who was still holding a telescope in his hand, could clearly see that the cannons installed on the turret opposite the fortress were already adjusting their attack angles, and it was estimated that as soon as they entered the range, they would open fire directly.
However, this is an unavoidable process, unless the range of the cannon on your side is farther than that on the opposite side, otherwise, the priority attack right of the cannon is often held by the defender.
Amidst the roar, the cannon on the fortress of the Arcas Fortress fired first.
After long-term improvement by the Ordnance Research Department, it has a range of more than a kilometer, and Alan Ballard, who is behind, sees his heart twitch.
It seems that the range advantage is hopeless, the range of the opposite cannon is almost the same as theirs
While quickly ordering to signal their own artillery to fight back, the infantry units of the Europa Army directly lined up in a square formation and advanced towards the enemy's trench fortress.
The flames of war were instantly ignited. In the hail of bullets, facing the strong firepower of the Europa army, the disadvantage of the Arcas Fortress was exposed in a short period of time.
This is a fact that can't be concealed at all. Alan Ballard, who realized this, was overjoyed. Even he didn't expect that his own force advantage was so great!
According to this momentum, this battle, he only needs to rely on his strength to force it.
