A crescent moon, like a shy girl, quietly poked her head out in the sunset.
"What a beautiful moon." Donna looked at the distant sky and sighed, "It's a pity that its light is destined to be obscured tonight!"
"Who would have thought that the new star of Tianmeng Federation would rise on the land of Lanling?" Vincent, who was standing beside her, also sighed.
Donna turned to look at him and said with a smile: "It seems that you have great confidence in him, Vincent?" The Strong Soldier from Another World 174
"Aren't you the same, instructor?" Vincent smiled bitterly, "From the moment he appeared on the Lanling battlefield to today, he can be said to have left no stone unturned. Although I don't know how he did it, I must admit, He is definitely not a madman, but a commander with amazing wisdom, and the Lanling War is completely under his control."
"Facing such an outstanding young man, do you feel jealous or disappointed?" Donna asked.
Among the many students at the Federal Military Academy, Vincent is one of the few who can make her look at him differently. This has nothing to do with family background. She likes his diligent attitude, broad mind and lofty ambitions. She wonders how Vincent will react in the face of a powerful competitor that could determine his future success.
"No, instructor." Vincent shook his head calmly, "I'm just a little worried."
"worry about what?"
"His magnificent turn gave me a premonition: a turbulent era is about to come. Every great era has heroes who will be remembered forever, and every powerful country has a commander who is powerful all over the world. He made me We see hope, because he has such potential. However, what his strong rise will bring to the federation, and whether he will be lost in the ocean of power and corruption, are all unknown, which is really worrying."
His words surprised Donna because they had similar views on Link. This time, she is willing to accept Link's command and lead the army to participate in this battle. I just want to see what other amazing performances this talented boy will perform. certainly. The soft words of the handsome young man who made her dead heart skip a beat when she first saw him were also an important factor.
"I hope Link can prove to be outstanding in your eyes. I also sincerely hope that someone can complete Marshal Langton's unfinished business!" Donna said with enthusiasm.
At this moment. A lieutenant colonel hurried over from a distance.
"Report to the division commander. The vanguard of the 3rd Division of the Sunset Empire has arrived at Tianyue Hills. The other two regiments of the 3rd Division are following up from both wings of the vanguard. Among them, the 4th regiment is expected to enter the ambush area of ??our division in one hour." The lieutenant colonel said in a low voice. .
"Using His Highness as bait, it's a shame he figured it out! But, it looks like it really works!" Donna sighed.
"Pass my order. After the enemy enters the ambush area, all units will attack according to the predetermined battle plan! Tell the regiment leaders to complete the division and encirclement of the 4th regiment within two hours at all costs to reduce the pressure on the independent regiment!" A strong murderous intent appeared on Donna's face. Since the commander dares to make a bet, as the general who leads the battle under his command, he must use actions to prove that his decision is wise.
"Yes!" The lieutenant colonel took the order and left.
"Let's go, Vincent! Be our supporting role and let our general star shine brightly!"
The two of them strode toward the battlefield.
The 3rd Division pursued all the way and soon reached the edge of the Sicilian Plain. A large number of hills appeared in front of them. In the night, they looked like giant beasts lying in the wilderness, waiting for their prey to be brought into their mouths.
"Send the order, the troops will rest where they are!"
Sirhan looked at the hills ahead, frowned, and decisively stopped the pursuit. This kind of terrain is an excellent ambush area, so he must be extra careful. His 3rd Division was like a scarred beast that could no longer withstand any unexpected blows.
However, according to the intelligence brought back by the scouts, the hastily retreating enemy has already entered the hills. He will never give up the prey easily. The temptation of Prince Mok makes him unable to resist in his eagerness to achieve meritorious service. If the 3rd Division wants to regain its prestige, it must win tonight's battle and capture Prince Mok in one fell swoop. Strong soldiers from another world 174
"Commander of a regiment, you lead a battalion to explore the road ahead! Be careful of ambush!" Sirhan called the commander of a regiment and ordered.
"Yes, Commander!" The regiment leader nodded.
??
"If you are ambushed by the enemy, don't fight hard, just delay." Sirhan warned. Even if the enemy has an ambush, at most one of his battalions will be eaten. As soon as the two regiments on the flanks arrive, the 3rd Division can complete the encirclement of the enemy, and none of Mock and others can escape.
"Yes!" the leader of the regiment ledHe left and soon led a group of cavalry into the hills.
Soon after the first regiment leader left, faint shouts of killing came from the front.
"Division Commander, the enemy we were chasing was out in full force, and the first battalion was surrounded!" Soon, an officer covered in blood, escorted by several cavalry, galloped out of the hills, bringing news from the front. .
"How long can the first battalion last?" Sirhan asked with a frown.
"The enemy came from all directions, and they were desperate as soon as they came up. The first battalion suffered heavy casualties. Now it has withdrawn to a high ground to defend it. It is estimated that it can hold on for half an hour." The officer said anxiously.
"Half an hour is enough." Sirhan said indifferently.
"Brothers, hold on, as soon as the division commander arrives, they will all be killed!" A regimental commander stood on the high ground, looking at the Lanling soldiers coming like a tide from all sides, and raised his arms and shouted.
From the moment he received the order, he knew what kind of fate might be waiting for him and the first battalion. If the enemy has an ambush, they must be like a magnet to attract the enemy and cooperate with the main force to complete the encirclement of the enemy.
Only by dying from the fire can we be reborn. This is the sacrifice that the 3rd Division must make in this battle. This is their glory. Even if this glory has to be exchanged for their lives, they have no regrets.
Both the enemy and ourselves started bloody killings around the small high ground. Blood soaked every inch of the highlands. The sunset soldiers showed amazing fighting power in a desperate situation. Blocking the charge from Lanling's army again and again, he firmly controlled the position in his own hands.
The soldiers of the Independent Regiment were also red-eyed. They ignored the sight of death, stepped on the corpses of their comrades and enemies, and rushed towards the high ground. The terrain advantage of Sunset Army was soon filled up by the corpses in front of the high ground. More and more Lanling soldiers rushed to the high ground, and the two sides fell into a melee.
Richard looked at the high ground calmly, with a hint of deep pain flashing in his eyes from time to time. If the officers and soldiers of the independent regiment have undergone systematic military training. If the officers and soldiers were better equipped. Many young soldiers might have survived the battle. However, they have nothing now. All they have is a strong body and full of passion.
However. It was gratifying for him. Him and his troops. The courage to fight has been gained in the bloody battles for days.
What is courage? Even though he is afraid of death and knows that moving forward is hell, he still strides forward when the bugle sounds! Groups of officers and soldiers who have been sleeping for a long time. It is the first page of the glorious history of this army.
Suddenly there was a loud shouting from the front.
"coming!"
"coming!"
The main force of the 3rd Division has arrived! The first regiment leader and Richard couldn't help but feel happy at the same time. The difference is that there are only about twenty soldiers beside the first regiment leader at this time. But behind Richard, there were thousands of people.
"Brothers, kill us!" Strong Soldiers from Another World 174
The two men issued the same order at almost the same moment, but their fates were completely different.
The troops led by Richard quickly came into contact with the main force of the 3rd Division. But when the regiment leader and the soldiers around him were fighting their way out, they were suddenly overwhelmed by a blue sword light and turned into flesh and blood flying across the sky.
"Your Highness, always remember these lovely soldiers, and don't let their sacrifice become insignificant!" Jeff looked at the corpses of Lanling soldiers lying on the ground, and said solemnly to Prince Mok beside him.
Mok said nothing. His sad eyes passed over the corpses of the soldiers, and his heart quietly accepted the baptism of blood and fire on the battlefield. The young prince felt that he and these fallen soldiers had merged into one, and the blood in his body was flowing out from the bodies of the soldiers, nourishing the land that gave birth to him. And this heavy earth is like a mother hugging her children tightly, crying and moaning in pain, looking forward to the day when she can protect her beloved with a steel body.
"Warriors, don't go far! Lan Ling will stand up again from where you fell. I will not let the enemy's iron hooves set foot on the land where you sleep!" A voice echoed in Mok's heart, Qiang Guo The dream of a strong army became hot and intense.
"Defense!" Looking at Lan Ling riding madly, an officer next to Sir Han shouted loudly.
Hundreds of soldiers with shields rushed forward and formed a shield wall in front of Sirhan. Groups of soldiers holding spears quickly stepped forward and hid behind the shields. Their spears poked out from the gaps in the shield array, waiting for the arrival of the cavalry.
"Archers, prepare! Shoot!"
The archers, bending their bows and drawing arrows behind the spearmen, rained down rounds of arrows towards the enemy.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? sunsetThe team's attack quickly achieved results. The Lanling soldiers who were at the forefront were hit by arrows and fell off their horses. And most of the cavalrymen who were lucky enough to survive also failed. However, the pace of the charge did not stop.
The cavalry roared angrily, waving their swords and slashing at the horses without knights around them, causing a rain of blood. The war horse was in pain, letting out a shrill scream, spreading its hooves and rushing towards the Sunset Empire's shield array.
Seeing such a bloody scene, Sirhan couldn't help but feel awe-struck. War horses are the most loyal partners and most reliable comrades of cavalry, and are the fabric of their lives. Half of their glory belongs to them. He has never seen cavalry treat horses so coldly and ruthlessly, and would use such cruel methods to drive horses away to death.
"These people don't deserve to be called cavalry at all. Of course, the soldiers of the Independent Regiment never considered themselves so-called cavalry. Link's teachings to Richard turned them into lunatics who would do whatever it takes to win on the battlefield.
After many war horses approached the shield formation, they were stabbed by the spears behind the shield formation. The pain of dying caused them to unleash the most powerful force in their bodies, knocking the shield formation into pieces. Those soldiers who fell out were hit hard by the dead weight of their horses before they even had time to get up.
The cavalry that kept coming up continued their deadly charge amidst the rain of arrows. People who survived. Trampling the corpses of the soldiers and horses in front, constantly crashing into the shield array and consuming the gun array, the first line of defense of Sunset Army gradually began to collapse.
"Withdraw the formation and kill!" Sirhan frowned and shouted angrily. When we meet on a narrow road, the brave one wins. He wants to teach his opponents a lesson and make them understand the truth: As a member of the Imperial Army, no one from the 3rd division is afraid of death starting from him!
Two troops with high morale. Soon there was a massacre. Two domineering forces. They hit each other hard, causing a huge wave of blood. Immediately, swords and swords were slashed, and the soldiers of Sunset and Lanling were fighting passionately.
Torre and Jeff led the Condor players. Hidden on a high ground in the rear of the Independent Regiment. His eyes were constantly searching the battlefield.
"Go and take a look. What are the 4th and 5th regiments doing? Why haven't they entered the battle yet?" As he was beating, Sirhan realized that something was wrong and yelled at the adjutant beside him. The opponent is still attacking his group with all his strength. The two flanking regiments obviously failed to follow his orders to complete the outflank of the enemy and enter the battle.
"Come here, protect the division commander!" the adjutant shouted, and together with another officer, led a group of soldiers to withdraw from the battle and ran separately towards the direction of the 4th and 5th regiments.
Soon after, the two officers came back with expressions as pale as dirt. The news they brought back hit the commander of the 3rd Division like a bolt from the blue.
"What did you say? The 4th and 5th regiments were all ambushed?" Sirhan asked in a trembling voice with cold hands and feet.
"Yes!" the adjutant nodded heavily, "the enemy's strength even exceeded ours, probably around 40,000 people. The two regiments tried to move closer to us, but they failed."
"How is this possible!" Sirhan said with a pale face, "Where did Lanling come from so many troops?"
"They are all regular troops from Lanling, and they are most likely the main force among the 50,000 reinforcements that have just arrived in Cole City recently." the adjutant replied.
"God Lord, with 40,000 people, plus Mork's troops, wouldn't Cole City become an empty city? Is that bastard Link a lunatic?" Sirhan was going crazy. He never expected that when His Highness Duis was besieging the city with heavy troops, the guy who provoked His Highness would actually withdraw all the main troops outside the city.
"What kind of battle are you fighting? If you're going to die, you don't need to use my 3rd Division as a backing!" In the wind, Sirhan's heart was completely messed up. This guy who doesn't play cards according to common sense, His troops were destined to become the biggest tragedy in the entire Lanling War.
"Give me my order, the whole army will come forward, and destroy the enemy in front of you!"
Sirhan fell into madness, but did not lose his mind. Although the army under Mock is not afraid of death, its combat effectiveness is not strong. The situation was critical, and he had to defeat this army in the shortest possible time and free up his hands to rescue the 4th and 5th regiments. He believed that his two regiments would not suffer too much loss in the contest with Lanling's army. As long as they join together, the 3rd Division can still win the final victory in this battle.
The order was quickly passed on, and the Sunset Army's offensive became extremely fierce. Even Sirhan himself took a group of officers from the division and joined the battle group himself.
The independent regiment fell into a bitter battle, but no one retreated.
"The target is locked, it's our turn to take action." Leila looked at an open space in the battlefield and said to Jeff. The reason why there is an open space there is because there are more than a dozen sunset soldiers standing in the center.??, having killed all the soldiers of the independent regiment surrounding them.
"Sirhan!"
Just after Sirhan stabbed two Lanling soldiers to the ground, he heard a loud roar. How could anyone call his name in such a fierce battle?
He and several officers couldn't help but stopped and looked at the source of the sound with suspicious eyes. They saw two soldiers wearing black armor.
¡°You¡¯re so obedient, I¡¯ll know it¡¯s you as soon as I shout.¡± One of them glanced at him with a sarcastic look and sneered.
"Close the net!" another person shouted.
"Seeking death!" Sir Han looked at the two men, feeling extremely angry. Their teasing made him murderous.
Around him, there was suddenly a scream, and the expressions of several officers standing beside him changed. They saw a sudden wave of blue sword light among the soldiers fighting around them. Many soldiers in black armor waved their long swords, and the sunset officers and soldiers were cut down in pieces like grass. The Lanling soldiers suddenly burst into thunderous cheers and took advantage of the situation to launch a ferocious counterattack.
Soon, these black-armored soldiers formed a circle with a diameter of tens of meters, surrounding them. The soldiers on the outer layer easily blocked the sunset officers and soldiers who wanted to save them, while the soldiers on the inner layer were approaching them.
"Mr. Link, the leader of the Condor Mercenary Regiment, ordered us to say hello to the unlucky General Sirhan on his behalf and send the general on his way." Jeff walked slowly into the field with a long knife in his hand and gracefully greeted Sirhan said.
On February 3, 15o3, Continent, the Lanling Principality won the Tianyue Victory, an important victory in the War of the Roses. In this battle, the Lanling Army concentrated two divisions and one regiment with a total of 48,000 troops. They set up an ambush in the Tianyue Hills to the north of the Sicilian grassland to eliminate the 3rd division headquarters and 3 main regiments of the Sunset Empire, wiping out 18,000 enemies. The commander of the 3rd Division, Sirhan, and a group of senior officers were all killed in the battle, and the 3rd Division withdrew from the Sunset Emperor's army.
This battle was listed as a classic case in the textbooks of mainland military academies for many years to come. It is famous not only because it is a gorgeous counterattack by a weak country against a strong power, but also because it is full of weird flavor. The commanders on both sides of the enemy and us chose a completely yiyang tactic in this battle: using a troop as bait. Attract and contain the enemy's main force, and mobilize other troops to surround and annihilate the enemy.
The art of command shows great power in the collision of the same tactics. Military scientists' simulations proved that in a frontal battlefield battle, a main division of the Sunset Empire would not be at a disadvantage when facing Lanling's two divisions. The reason why the Sunset Army failed was that Sir Han met the genius commander Link. Taking risks to set up ambushes, using princes as bait, and killing unexpected soldiers, he relied on his courage and wisdom to firmly control the rhythm of the war and perform a flowing war movement.
Of course, many people believe that Link¡¯s victory lies in the fact that he has two extremely terrifying elite soldiers, the Anta Independent Group and the Condor Mercenary Group. The former's flesh and blood body and the latter's terrifying strength ensured that his battle plan could be executed flawlessly.
For Link, Tianyue¡¯s victory marked the beginning of his first wonderful performance from behind the scenes to the stage.
