Chapter 200: Start the "Xia Feng" Offensive! (Down)

"Divided into three armies? Why?" Ge Zewen asked doubtfully.

After hearing Gozevin's question, Bancro also patiently explained:

"Because, in the sixth southern offensive, that is, this 'Spring Awakening' offensive, our purpose is to disintegrate the northern defense system of the Rollin Empire, so the goal of our 'Spring Awakening' offensive is Capture the northern defense line of the Rollin Empire."

"To put it simply, the purpose of this 'Spring Awakening' offensive is to attack cities and seize territory."

"Now that our 'Spring Awakening' offensive has ended successfully, there are no longer any cities or fortresses of great strategic value in the north of the Luolin Empire that must be captured, so our next goal is no longer It should not be about attacking cities and plundering territory, but about killing and injuring the Luolin Empire’s effective forces to the greatest extent possible! Destroying the Luolin Empire’s war potential!”

"Destroying these 250,000 troops is more valuable than capturing 25 cities in the Luolin Empire!"

After listening to Bancro's explanation, Ge Zewen nodded gently and said:

"Well, I understand. Continue to explain. Tell me why we divided our 150,000-strong army into three armies. How do you plan to use these three armies to kill Luo Lin's army?"

"Yes. First of all, divide the 150,000 soldiers of the Rachel Knights who are currently at the forefront in the south into three armies: West, Central and East. The West Army has 50,000 people, the Center Army has 60,000 people, and the East Army has 40,000 people. "

As Bancro said, he divided the 15 small black squares on the map into 3 parts, 5 small squares in the west, 6 small squares in the middle, and 4 small squares in the east.

"These three armies are responsible for the main attack, auxiliary attack, and feint attack respectively."

"Among them, the Central Route Army with 60,000 people is the main force and is responsible for the main attack, the West Route Army with 50,000 people is responsible for the auxiliary attack, and the East Route Army with the smallest number of only 40,000 is responsible for the feint attack."

"The Central Route Army advances southward towards Lixi City, the important town of the Luolin Empire. Lixi City is an important place of great strategic value in the Luolin Empire, so we will never sit back and watch our army attack this place. Everywhere is important."

"Attack the place where the enemy must not give up to lure the enemy over for a decisive battle in the wild."

As the middle-aged man spoke, he fiddled with the six small black squares in the middle and slowly moved the six small black squares southward.

"The middle route army slowly marched towards Lixi City, attracting the main force of the Luo Lin Empire to encircle them. After attracting the main force of the Luo Lin Army, they started a decisive battle in the field with the main force of the Luo Lin Army."

"The West Route Army was responsible for the auxiliary attack, approaching Lixi City from the west. During the decisive battle between the Central Route Army and the Luo Lin Army, they launched a surprise attack, cutting off the Luo Lin Army's retreat, and jointly attacked the main force of the Luo Lin Army with the Central Route Army."

"The East Route Army started to advance from the east. The East Route Army did not have a specific and fixed strategic goal. Their mission was to feign an attack. The main goal was to act as a suspect to attract and distract Luo Lin Army's forces and slow down the Central Route Army and the Pressure from the Western Route Army."

"The above is the general strategy drawn up by the seven of us after discussion."

After saying that, Bancro straightened up and leaned over the map.

The seven people at the table looked at Ge Zewen quietly, waiting for his reply.

Ge Zewen looked at the map on the table in front of him in silence.

After a while, he said in a deep voice:

"It is indeed a perfect arrangement and plan."

After saying that, Ge Zewen straightened up and said seriously:

"Okay, I officially authorize the launch of the seventh offensive against the south!"

"Do you think this seventh offensive to the south should be given a better code name?"

"How about naming the offensive 'Xia Feng'?" Jacob, who had been silent just now, suddenly said, "It's already June now. By the time the seventh offensive to the south officially starts, it will probably be July. , it’s already summer time.”

"Since this seventh offensive to the south is launched in the summer, how about naming it the 'Summer Wind' offensive? It means the hurricane in the summer."

As soon as Jacob finished speaking,

The other six people standing beside him all had surprise and joy in their eyes.

"Xia Feng..." An old man muttered the word several times, "It's a good name."

"Yeah, a nice name."

The rest of the people also smiled and nodded.

"'Summer Wind' Offensive... a summer hurricane..." Gozewen muttered the word several times, and then said in a praising tone, "'Summer Wind' Offensive, a good name! Okay, this is the third The code name for the 7 offensives to the south will be the 'Summer Wind' offensive!"

"Then, for this 'Xia Feng' offensive, the central route army will be commanded by Iser, and the west route army will be commanded by Albert..."

However, before Gozewen finished speaking, Bancro, who had just been in charge of the commentary, interrupted:

"Your Majesty, all ministers unanimously recommend that Iser is no longer suitable to participate in this offensive."

"Not suitable?" Ge Zewen frowned, "Why?"

As soon as Ge Zewen finished speaking, another older man immediately said:

"Because we detected something strange on the eastern front."

"According to the information sent back by the spies, during the rescue battle of the Kingdom of Lund last year, General Alan Jones, who was sent to support the Carolingian Kingdom, returned to our country. All 4,000 armored holy cavalry were wiped out. Even those who were supposed to The supporting Carolingian army was also completely annihilated by our country, so the emperor of the Frankish Empire regarded this as a great shame and a great humiliation, and promised that this shame would be washed away with the blood of Britannias."

"Therefore, strange things have begun to appear on the eastern front recently, and the Frankish Empire has slowly begun to increase its troops and supplies to its western front."

"So, we believe that the Frank Empire is very likely to be ready to cleanse the shame of the 'Lund Kingdom Rescue War'."

After listening to the old man's words, Ge Zewen's face darkened and he whispered:

"Is there any action on the part of the Frank Empire..."

"Well, it can be said that although I don't know if the Frank Empire really plans to attack in the near future, it is still necessary to prepare in advance."

"So, we recommend that Iser leave the southern front and return to the eastern front, let him sit on the eastern defense, and send additional reinforcements to the eastern front."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, Ge Zewen immediately said:

"Okay! That's right! Iser will not be allowed to participate in this 'Summer Wind' offensive. Iser will be sent back to the eastern front and let him sit on the eastern front. Jacob is still stationed in Pandera How many knights are there left in Gong?"

"All the 100,000 Rachel Knights soldiers stationed in Pendragon have been sent to the southern front." Jacob replied calmly, "And in last year's 'Rescue Battle of the Kingdom of Lund', there were about 100,000 casualties. There are more than 10,000 soldiers of the Knights of Gabriel, and the new recruits have not yet been replenished, so there are only about 140,000 soldiers of the Knights of Gabriel currently stationed in Pendragon."

"Are there only 140,000 troops stationed in Pendragon?" Gozewen smiled bitterly, and then continued, "Then first send the 80,000 Gabriel Knights stationed near Pendragon. Let the soldiers of the regiment go to the eastern front. "

"yes!"

"Okay, let's get back to today's theme." Ge Zewen turned his attention back to the map in front of him.

"Since Iser cannot participate in this 'Xia Feng' offensive..." Gozewen whispered, "then let Albert serve as the commander-in-chief of the Central Army."

"As for the West Route Army..."

Ge Zewen pondered for a while, and then said:

"Alan Jones will be the commander-in-chief."

"Alan will be in charge?" Jacob asked with a frown.

As soon as Ge Zewen finished speaking, seven people, including Jacob, looked at Ge Zewen in surprise.

Ge Zewen nodded, and then said:

"That's right, Allen will be the commander-in-chief of the Western Route Army. Since January this year, I gave him the task of training a heavy infantry unit that is not inferior to the Frank Empire's 'Holy Armor', more than five months have passed. It’s been a month, and it’s time to show off his achievements.”

"In this 'Xia Feng' offensive, the 3,000 heavy infantry trained by Allen will also be sent to the Western Route Army. I want to see how the effect of Allen's training is. Does this heavy infantry team meet the requirements? My expectations.”

"As for the coach of the Eastern Route Army..."

After deciding on the candidates for the coaches of the Central Route Army and the West Route Army, Ge Zewen began to think about who should be the coach of the East Route Army.

While Ge Zewen was thinking, Jacob suddenly said:

"Your Majesty, I have an idea."

"Ideas? Tell me."

"Now wars between our country and other countries are becoming more and more frequent. Jacob said eloquently, "In order to continue to maintain the combat effectiveness of our army, it is very necessary to continuously train and train young people. "

"So, I suggest that a young man should be the coach of the Eastern Route Army?"
