Chapter 1,483: The General Headquarters of Bolu City (Part 1)

"Military genius brings Zizhi Tongjian to another world ()" Find the latest chapter!

The Frankish Empire was a country that paid the most attention to status and the difference between nobles and commoners. However, when the Frankish Empire was in the final life and death situation, the monarchs and ministers of the Frankish Empire entrusted the life and death of the empire to Allen, who was born in a commoner family. This is really ironic.

- A certain historian in later generations commented on the last period of history of the Frankish Empire.

Allen has not been home these days.

He moved all kinds of daily necessities such as bedding and washing tools from home to the headquarters.

Eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping - all are solved in the headquarters.

For about 17 hours a day, Allen is dealing with various military affairs.

Super busy man - this is Allen's state these days.

In these days, Allen's most concerned thing is the movements of the Britannia Army and the Hiran Army.

Under his instruction, all the most elite scouts of their Frankish Empire were dispatched to scout all the movements of the Britannia Army and the Frank Army.

The scouts closely monitored all the movements of the two armies, and then sent all the intelligence they had detected back to the headquarters of Bolu as quickly as possible.

The scouts who returned to Bolu to report military intelligence never stopped.

As soon as a scout finished reporting military intelligence and left Bolu to continue to scout the movements of the two armies, another scout returned to Bolu and informed Allen of the latest military intelligence.

In order to facilitate the scouts' military intelligence reporting, the door of the headquarters was always open.

The returning scouts could go directly to the headquarters and Allen's room without any reporting.

Allen was now bowing his head at the table, drawing the currently known marching directions of the Britannia Army and the Hiran Army on the map on the table.

Next to this long table, a group of senior generals headed by Rudolf and Erich stood around.

Under the instruction of Emperor Yu Xiade, Allen is now the supreme commander of the Battle of Bolu.

Rudolf and Erich are now Allen's subordinates and must obey Allen's command.

Rudolf and Erich were both marshals of orthodox noble origin, and they had always held a contemptuous attitude towards Allen, who was born in the commoner family.

Rudolf and Erich were naturally very unhappy about Emperor Shad's appointment of Allen and their current situation of being inferior to Allen.

But this was Emperor Shad's appointment after all, and no matter how unhappy they were, they could only endure it.

What's more, the two of them had just lost a battle, which put the Frank Empire in a more passive situation.

As the two of them were guilty, they naturally had no confidence or courage to say anything about Emperor Shad's new appointment.

When Allen was carefully drawing the marching routes of the Britannia Army and the Hiran Army on the map, anxious footsteps came from the gate at a very fast speed from far to near.

As soon as the footsteps entered the room, a breathless shout came from the direction of the footsteps:

"Commander! The Britannian army arrived at the gate of Gray Tower City yesterday afternoon!"

You don't need to see with your eyes, just listen with your ears, you can tell that this person is the scout who just returned to Bolu.

In order to save everyone's time, Allen had already told all the scouts that there was no need to make any fancy greetings. If there was any new military information to report, just go into the room and speak out the latest new military information.

As soon as the scout finished speaking, everyone in the room, including Allen, showed surprise.

"Gray Tower City... Has the Britannian army already attacked here...?"

"The speed of the march was so fast!"

"Damn... Even if a scorched earth war was adopted, it couldn't stop the Britannian army's front..."

"The defense of Bolu is about to begin..."

...

Everyone present was all the senior generals in their Bolu city.

These days, they have already read the map of Bolu and its surrounding areas hundreds of times.

They knew exactly where the Gray Tower City was.

Gray Tower City was the closest city to Bolu, located on the west side of their Bolu City.

In other words, the Britannian Army, which had successfully captured the Gray Tower City, would advance to Bolu next!

The Britannian Army was already within reach.

Allen and the others in the room had not yet recovered from the Britannian Army's powerful marching speed, when another scout rushed into the room.

"Report! The vanguard of the Xilan Army on the northern front had advanced to the Suyin Plain at noon yesterday!"

"Suyin Plain?!"

"The Xilan Army's marching speed was so fast...!"

"Suyin Plain... That means... the Xilan Army is less than 20 miles away from us..."

...

Suyin Plain - a plain 20 miles north of Bolu City.

Since the Xilan Army had advanced to the Suyin Plain at noon yesterday, it meant that the Xilan Army, like the Britannian Army, was about to arrive at the city of Bolu.

Two pieces of military intelligence that were not good news were delivered in succession, making the already heavy atmosphere in the room even heavier.

After a long while, Allen sighed softly:

"Su Cheng or El, both are worthy of the name of genius..."

Ever since El led the Far East Front southward and began to attack their Frankish Empire, he had only fought one field battle from beginning to end.

That was the strategic decisive battle with Rudolf and Erich.

After this battle, the Hiran army never fought any field battles again.

They just kept capturing cities, moving south, and approaching Bulu.

Not to mention the Britannian army.

The Britannian army's actions since crossing the Rhine River were easier than those of the Hiran army.

The Hiran army led by Er at least fought a strategic decisive battle with the Frank army.

The Britannian army led by Su Cheng really had nothing.

The 300,000 Britannian troops divided into four routes really just kept repeating the steps of siege, march, siege, and march.

Because the central government of the Frankish Empire implemented a thorough scorched earth war on the western front, there were no supplies left in the western part of the Frankish Empire, and no soldiers were left.

So from the Rhine River all the way here, the Britannia Army only had some casualties during non-wartime, and no soldiers died in battle.

At first glance, the Britannia Army's commander-in-chief Su Cheng was quite idle.

He didn't have to command any large-scale battles, he just had to keep commanding the soldiers to move forward.

However, this is only the perception of laymen.

Laymen like Allen, Rudolf, and Erich know that Su Cheng's military talent and ability were fully demonstrated in the series of actions in commanding the 300,000-strong army to move east.
