After retreating to Fort Tobrook, the army in King Bemon's hands stood firmly in the fortress. No matter how we provoked, we would not leave the protection area of Thor's Hammer to come out for a decisive battle. The war was in a stalemate
The Northern Legion stationed in the Machuan Plain, looking at Tobrook Fortress at a distance of 70 kilometers.
Unlike the empire, the Bruce continent has a semi-arid climate
From May to July, there will be basically no rain
Due to the influence of climate, the vegetation on the Machuan Plain is mostly short heat-resistant shrubs and cracked yellow land. Only after the rainy season arrives in August and September will green grass grow.
For the imperial army stationed in the Machuan Plain, it is not wise to start a war in this season
The number of cavalry in the Northern Legion reached 50,000, plus the mules and horses transporting artillery, ammunition and providing food and supplies, the total number of animals reached 70,000.
People eat and horses eat grass, and finding enough for these 70,000 animals has become the primary problem before the army.
The orcs have never been defeated in this land since Hannibal. I thought the orcs would be proud of it and ignored the work of clearing the world, but both Ovimas and I were wrong.
Before the Imperial army entered the Bruce continent, King Bemon ordered people to set fire, destroy, burn mountains and forests everywhere, and died seven Hetao pastures suitable for grazing in the Great Triangle area. Six of them were destroyed in advance by him, and the only one that stayed...
If you don’t want horse plague, just boldly lead the horse here to grazle!
If Robin hadn't been careful and careful, plus the reminder of several Western Amateur scientists who accompanied the army, the Imperial Army almost suffered a big loss there.
After careful search, we found a large number of dead animals in the water source of the grassland.
If we really grazed here, for less than a month, most of the mules and horses in the army would die.
There is only one polluted grassland, but it has caused the imperial army to be full of plants and trees, and even the small matter of drinking water for mules and horses has become extremely cautious.
This time the Empire is in the Death Triangle. In an environment where magical treatment cannot be used, military doctors with traditional medical skills as the main treatment method are particularly important.
Before the war, almost all the students trained in the Medical Department of Sage College over the past few years were recruited into the army, and all the professors and teachers of the Medical Department fought with the army.
These scientists in West China brought a large number of advanced instruments. In order to deal with the poisonous plan of King Bemon spreading the plague, West China had to go to various water sources every day to retrieve samples and carefully inspect them. Only after confirming that there was no problem can the people dare to drink with confidence.
Despite this, the Imperial Army stationed in the Machuan Plain for a month, and several small-scale plagues occurred between the mules and horses. Although they were controlled in time by isolation, slaughtering and burning, they were already extremely embarrassed.
The Dragoon plan was extremely detailed, and the problem of forage supply had been considered before the war
Before the war, Solomon Fortress stocked up a large amount of hay and black beans for mules and horses.
At the same time, a month before the war broke out, the empire deliberately planted grass in a large area of artificial grass in the Imperial-controlled area outside the Pamela Plain outside the Solomon Fortress. This work is now done by the reserve team under the old Red Ankylosaurus. Before going to the expedition, the soldiers of the reserve army who temporarily lived in the Solomon Fortress called themselves grooms and sheepmen.
Because King Bemon shamelessly used bacterial warfare, the forage for 70,000 horses had to be transported from Solomon Fortress in a truckload, and the rations for soldiers and ammunition needed for muskets and cannons were also required. In this way, the pressure on logistics supply can be imagined.
In order to shorten the supply line, almost while capturing Modanna City, Ruyue transferred the 13th Legion, which served as a reserve, to the entrance of the Bruce Continent, to establish a temporary food storage site in a place called Cardin.
The Northern Legion used the newly occupied Modanna City as the food supply transfer station for the front line
The security of the supply line from Solomon Fortress to the entrance is the old Red Ankyloss, and the important task of transporting food and grass to the Machuan Plain falls to the 13th Legion.
As King Bemon avoided the war, the conflict between the two sides on the Zhengmina battlefield almost stopped. Because they feared the power of muskets and cannons, the scheming King Bemon did not conceal all his troops in Tobrook Fortress, but keenly transferred the combat target to the empire's fragile supply line
Since the fall of Modanna City, the supply line of the imperial army has been very unsmooth.
On the long supply line of the Imperial Army
The distance is within the Death Triangle, which is 200 kilometers long, and it also passes through a large number of hills and mountains.
The empire attached great importance to the security of the supply line. The escort army that escorted the first batch of supplies was as high as 13,000, of which 1,000 were dragon spear soldiers, and there were more than a dozen artillery pieces. One thousand armored cavalry followed the army. The strength of the guard can only be described as luxury!
This supply army, armed to the teeth, was still three days after entering the demon suppression area.
The orc attack troops were completely destroyed, and less than half of the 13,000 people escorted with the army escaped.
Although muskets and cannons are terrifying killing weapons, their own weaknesses are also very obvious, that is, they have strict requirements on the combat environment. Night battles and mountain battles will restrict their power, and mountains are also not suitable for cavalry combat.
According to the return of the food protection army who fled back, the grain transport convoy camped on a mountain overnight at that time.
The warning at night was already quite tight, but the orcs who had attacked the sneak attack sent a small group of troops to climb down from the cliff and kill the guards who were patrolling the night.
They set fire in the camp to create chaos, and they cooperated with each other and broke through the camp in one fell swoop
In close combat, muskets and cannons have almost become useless decorations
The escorted army suffered heavy losses
Enough of 300,000 troops to eat supplies for half a month, and then turned into ashes overnight
After the war, we calculated that the orcs dispatched at least nearly 10,000 troops in this battle, and the number of Bemon beasts participating in the battle was more than fifty. As for the Thunderbird troops, they were even more deployed.
When the strategic focus is shifted from the front battlefield to the logistics supply line, the safety of the Imperial Army supply line becomes the key to determining the outcome of the entire battle
The Northern Legion drew a large number of main forces from the front line to the rear, and fully recovered the attacking troops sent by King Bemon, but the effect was not good.
The Death Triangle area is vast, mostly mountainous and hilly, and it is easy to hide its whereabouts.
Orcs fighting locally have the advantage of being familiar with the terrain, and supply is not a problem - according to some captured orcs, King Bemon reserved thirteen secret supply locations on the front line before the war, specifically for these attacking troops.
Before the war ends, enough for them to consume
The Empire racked its brains and only found one place to be destroyed
In terms of tactics, the orc attack troops slipped like fish, usually moving in mountains and hills, hiding in Tibet during the day and dispatching supply convoys at night, but they refused to fight head-on with the empire's pursuit troops.
When the way of fighting changed from traditional positional warfare to running warfare, chase warfare, sneak attack and anti-sneaking warfare, the disadvantages of the imperial army gradually became exposed
In the Death Triangle
The traditional infantry of the empire could not defeat orcs, and the armored cavalry had no advantage in hilly areas and orcs, and they were not the opponents of wolf cavalry. Meeting the Behemoth is no different from suicide.
As for the new firearm troops that I have great hope, they also have their own shortcomings. The dragon spearmen can beat orcs and infantry, and the bulky cannons are inconvenient to move, so it is impossible for horses to pull the ravine to chase orcs. The cannons are the only weapon that can restrain the Bemon beast.
Light-mounted dragon cavalry equipped with muskets and excellent maneuvering is the most effective army in this pursuit battle, but the existence of the Bemon Behemoth greatly reduces the use of this army. The rear-mounted musket in the hands of the dragon spearmen cannot cause damage to the Behemoth no matter where it is.
Even if the orcs are discovered, the orcs can easily get rid of the pursuit of the dragon cavalry and break through the encirclement by simply using the behemoth beast to break the back or break through.
If the imperial army was a ferocious lion, then the attacking troops sent by King Bemon were cunning leopards. They could not defeat but could escape. They could see the opportunity and bite the lion's weakness. In terms of tactics, the wolf pack tactics adopted by King Bemon's attacking troops also caused enough suffering to the Northern Legion. According to the information they have mastered, the attacking troops sent by King Bemon were about 30,000. These 30,000 attack troops were divided into dozens of small corpses ranging from 2,000 to 3,000 people. These small corps were spread out like pepper to disperse guerrilla warfare on a supply line of 400 kilometers from Cardan to Modan.!yJL5l{Because the orcs have control of air superiority, every move of the Northern Legion is under their surveillance. The pursuit and suppression troops sent, if the strength is strong, the orcs try their best to avoid the battle. Once the pursuit and suppression troops are weak and separate from the main force, these small corpses that are scattered like lone wolf will gather in groups at dusk under the guidance of the thunderbird.
After dark, they took advantage of the cover of night to break through the protective position with the Bemon beast as the vanguard. The werewolf and leopard man rushed up behind and tore it apart in one fell swoop (this tactic is also used to attack the supply convoy).
Without the threat of artillery, the Beamon beast once again showed off its might.
But no matter what, despite the huge advantages of orcs in tactics, geographical location, and intelligence, the appearance of the Fire Dragon Spear still caused them serious losses.
During the month-long hunting battle between hunters and beasts, both sides suffered heavy casualties.
The losses in the empire were mostly caused by the Behemoth beast, while the casualties in the orcs were caused by the Fire Dragon Spear
Although it was a loss-making ending, King Beamon almost achieved his strategic goal
Due to the unfavorable pursuit and suppression, the supply line of the Northern Legion was hit hard.
During this month, Ruyue sent three supply convoys, and the first two were destroyed by orcs on the road.
Compared to the first, the destruction of the second supply convoy is more dramatic and ironic.
The orcs armed themselves with firearms seized in the first battle. After learning how to use them from captured imperial soldiers, they set up an ambush in a valley with full territory.
When the Empire's grain transport convoy passed by, it was first bombarded with artillery set up on high places. The Empire's artillery transport was inconvenient and difficult to operate mobile combat in the mountains, but it was not a problem for orcs. The amazingly powerful Bemon beast can carry artillery like catching flies and run around the mountains and fields.
After the artillery bombardment, the beast wolf cavalry equipped with the fire dragon spear cooperated with the leopard man, werewolf warrior, and Beamon monster launched a surprise attack.
As the war occurred in the undulating valley, the fire dragon gun fire was affected to a certain extent, and the artillery convoy was suddenly in chaos (the imperial army did not expect that the orcs would actually bombard the artillery, and they also lacked the experience of preventing artillery attacks). Muskets and cannons were originally powerful tools for the imperial army to deal with the orcs, but this time they were used by the orcs to deal with the empire itself. The orcs successfully attacked the raid: more than two-thirds of the food and most of the ammunition were burned on the road.
The orc attack troops cannot be wiped out in a short period of time. The only way now is to increase the strength of the protective troops.
When the third supply convoy was dispatched, the granary of the Northern Legion had already reached its bottom
In order to allow this batch of food and grass to arrive safely, I specially sent Hu Te to lead all the dragon cavalry to respond. Ruyue even mobilized up to 30,000 escort troops, and at the same time, she herself personally took the horse to escort the formation.
Relying on combat effectiveness and military strength, the escort troops that were extremely luxurious, were finally sent to the Tsumachuan Plain. When the food and supplies arrived, hundreds of thousands of troops from the Northern Legion had been drinking porridge for seven days.
After learning that the food was shipped successfully, I almost cried because I was one day late and I had to let the army kill horses and fill my hunger.
And the moon, covered in dust and tired face, seemed to be much more beautiful in my eyes.
Hu Te quietly told me that on the way to Modanna through the Demon-Suppressing Area, Ruyue did not sleep for five consecutive nights, patrolling around the military camp every night to prevent orcs from attacking at night.
Lin!
This is a good opportunity to improve the relationship. I was about to take the opportunity to go forward and hold Ruyue's hand and say a few words of gratitude, but Ruyue was so energetic that she walked up.
Pull me to a corner of the barracks
In the corner, she reminded me extremely seriously: It is not a solution to drag on like this! You can’t drag on it anymore! The red plan must be implemented as soon as possible!
I looked at Ruyue for a long time, and my eyes became more and more bizarre.
Ruyue became unnatural by me and said suspiciously: What's wrong?
I asked: Red Plan? Do you know the specific content of the Red Plan?
Ruyue shook her head and said: Father did not tell me the specific content! He just told me before the war started that if the war was deadlocked, I would like to remind you to implement the red plan as soon as possible! I am not the front-line commander and will never interfere in your military affairs. I just want to remind you that our losses on the supply line are too great. Nearly 30,000 people have been lost in personnel! And there are countless losses in materials. You also understand that the current domestic situation, the empire cannot withstand such torture and consumption! The current situation must be found as soon as possible, and it is not a solution to this way!
King Bemon shifted the focus of the combat to the supply line. Although it caused great trouble to the Northern Legion, this sneak attack tactic can be either one or two or two. With the increase in the pursuit and suppression efforts and the strengthening of the strength of the food protection force, the safety of the supply line will gradually ease.
In fact, the biggest trouble for the Northern Legion comes from the domestic situation, maintaining the supply of hundreds of thousands of troops on the front line.
It is really a huge burden for the empire. The sooner the war, the better the better
As for the red plan?
In fact, there is no red plan at all. The red plan in Ruyue's mouth refers to the blood color plan, but Emperor Aola changed another name to deceive Ruyue.
Emperor Ola and I both understand that with Ruyue's character, we will never agree to implement the Blood Color Plan. He also discussed this issue with me privately. Emperor Ola repeatedly reminded me that when the Blood Color Plan is implemented, Ruyue must not be allowed to stay on the front line. This is not only a question of whether she agrees or not, but also for her reputation.
I avoided this question and shook my head and sighed: Now is not the best time to implement the red plan
You must wait another month. This time the supplies you transported are just enough for the army to spend a month. I will trouble you if the next batch of supplies can be shipped safely!
Ruyue stared at my face for a few seconds. After hesitating for a while, she finally asked me:
What exactly is the red plan?
I moved my mouth and smiled reluctantly: One month later, one month later is the best time to implement the red plan. Then Princess, you will understand!
Ruyue said suspiciously: What is the red plan? Can't even I know?
I laughed dryly
This, this is the highest secret, and it is related to the end of this battle... Your Majesty is still in Solomon Fortress. The prince wants to know, so he should ask him by himself!
Ruyue stared at me, and the doubts in her eyes became more and more. After standing quietly for a few seconds, she nodded and turned away without saying a word.
Looking at Ruyue's back, I sighed in my heart. It has been more than a year, and from that time to now, my relationship with Ruyue has not improved.
Although I have been handing out a reconciliation of olive branches several times, I have hit the wall every time
I knew in my heart that this was definitely not because of the incident in Yuedu World. Ruyue must have known something, so her attitude towards me plummeted. After all, I have too many secrets that I can't stand.
Ruyue only stayed in the military camp for two days. During this period, she inspected the military camp and understood the specific needs of the frontline.
Early on the third morning, she brought a small number of troops back to Cardan City to prepare for the next batch of supplies.
As soon as Ruyue left, I immediately called a meeting of senior generals from various legions.
There were only six people attending the meeting, I, Ovimas, Robin, and the highest generals of the other three Knights
A confidential document with the fire seal removed was circulated in the hands of three Knights Legion commanders. After reading the documents, their faces changed drastically.
After everyone had seen it, I took the file from Nayisoo and lit it and burned it.
Nayixiu's nose was covered with cold sweat and she said tremblingly: How could this happen? This is simply an inhumane plan!
Hu Te looked at me and didn't say much. General Bobble from the Sea Knights shook his head and said: This is ridiculous! The empire's army is used to protect the people, not executioners who slaughter women and children!
Robin said coldly: It is used to protect the people of the empire, not the people of the orcs!
Nayixiu retorted: You can't say that... If this order is really executed, it will become a shame that the Birch Dragon Knights will never be washed away!
Robin scoffed at the nose: What is shame! The definition of this word is also determined by the strong, and only the winner is qualified to say what shame is!
General Bobble glared at him and said: What do you know! Killing enemies on the battlefield is completely different from slaughtering unarmed civilians!
Among the senior generals of these three legions, Bobble, who was thirty-five years old, was the oldest elder. He was very disdainful of Robin, who had just appeared in his mouth. He always thought that he had climbed to his current position because of his brother's relationship.
Robin pretended not to see Bobble's disdainful eyes
He said neither arrogant nor humblely: Because King Bemon has always refused to go out to fight, our supply situation is not allowed to fight a protracted battle here. The blood-colored plan is the best way to force orcs to come out to fight!
King Bemon has been through the battlefield for a long time, so he won’t be unable to see this! What if he still refuses to fight if he endures the pain?
He had no choice! King Bemon is very smart, but the new Orc King Glea may not be as smart as him! One day, the emperor and one minister, according to the existing information, the Orc King Glea has always been in a row with King Bemon and has long wanted to replace him, but now there is only one excuse! After the implementation of the Blood Plan, if King Bemon refuses to fight, you can imagine how much pressure he will be under! At that time, the Orc King will be in a battle and the situation will be completely different!
Orvimas and I watched Robin and Poble debate quietly. We have been observing him all the time.
He was born for war. His cold blood and calmness, his cautiousness and subtlety, his ability to accept new things, his military literacy, and Robin's ability in all aspects have left a deep impression on us.
Orvimas and I didn't read the wrong person back then. This child is indeed qualified to become the third gecko.
Seeing that the two sides were talking louder and louder, in order not to cause conflict, I knocked on the table and asked the two to stop.
Your Majesty has approved it, and the Blood Color Plan must be implemented!
Everyone was indifferent
Then I announced: But don’t worry, the one who officially executed this order is the ghost legion that you have been unable to understand recently! The rest of the legions only need auxiliary support!
The Northern Legion stationed in the Machuan Plain, looking at Tobrook Fortress at a distance of 70 kilometers.

He just told me before the war started that if the war was deadlocked, I would like to remind you to implement the red plan as soon as possible! I am not the front-line commander and will never interfere in your military affairs. I just want to remind you that our losses on the supply line are too great. Nearly 30,000 people have been lost in personnel! And there are countless losses in materials. You also understand that the current domestic situation, the empire cannot withstand such torture and consumption! The current situation must be found as soon as possible, and it is not a solution to this way!
King Bemon shifted the focus of the combat to the supply line. Although it caused great trouble to the Northern Legion, this sneak attack tactic can be either one or two or two. With the increase in the pursuit and suppression efforts and the strengthening of the strength of the food protection force, the safety of the supply line will gradually ease.
In fact, the biggest trouble for the Northern Legion comes from the domestic situation, maintaining the supply of hundreds of thousands of troops on the front line.
It is really a huge burden for the empire. The sooner the war, the better the better
As for the red plan?
In fact, there is no red plan at all. The red plan in Ruyue's mouth refers to the blood color plan, but Emperor Aola changed another name to deceive Ruyue.
Emperor Ola and I both understand that with Ruyue's character, we will never agree to implement the Blood Color Plan. He also discussed this issue with me privately. Emperor Ola repeatedly reminded me that when the Blood Color Plan is implemented, Ruyue must not be allowed to stay on the front line. This is not only a question of whether she agrees or not, but also for her reputation.
I avoided this question and shook my head and sighed: Now is not the best time to implement the red plan
You must wait another month. This time the supplies you transported are just enough for the army to spend a month. I will trouble you if the next batch of supplies can be shipped safely!
Ruyue stared at my face for a few seconds. After hesitating for a while, she finally asked me:
What exactly is the red plan?
I moved my mouth and smiled reluctantly: One month later, one month later is the best time to implement the red plan. Then Princess, you will understand!
Ruyue said suspiciously: What is the red plan? Can't even I know?
I laughed dryly
This, this is the highest secret, and it is related to the end of this battle... Your Majesty is still in Solomon Fortress. The prince wants to know, so he should ask him by himself!
Ruyue stared at me, and the doubts in her eyes became more and more. After standing quietly for a few seconds, she nodded and turned away without saying a word.
Looking at Ruyue's back, I sighed in my heart. It has been more than a year, and from that time to now, my relationship with Ruyue has not improved.
Although I have been handing out a reconciliation of olive branches several times, I have hit the wall every time
I knew in my heart that this was definitely not because of the incident in Yuedu World. Ruyue must have known something, so her attitude towards me plummeted. After all, I have too many secrets that I can't stand.
Ruyue only stayed in the military camp for two days. During this period, she inspected the military camp and understood the specific needs of the frontline.
Early on the third morning, she brought a small number of troops back to Cardan City to prepare for the next batch of supplies.
As soon as Ruyue left, I immediately called a meeting of senior generals from various legions.
There were only six people attending the meeting, I, Ovimas, Robin, and the highest generals of the other three Knights
A confidential document with the fire seal removed was circulated in the hands of three Knights Legion commanders. After reading the documents, their faces changed drastically.
After everyone had seen it, I took the file from Nayisoo and lit it and burned it.
Nayixiu's nose was covered with cold sweat and she said tremblingly: How could this happen? This is simply an inhumane plan!
Hu Te looked at me and didn't say much. General Bobble from the Sea Knights shook his head and said: This is ridiculous! The empire's army is used to protect the people, not executioners who slaughter women and children!
Robin said coldly: It is used to protect the people of the empire, not the people of the orcs!
Nayixiu retorted: You can't say that... If this order is really executed, it will become a shame that the Birch Dragon Knights will never be washed away!
Robin scoffed at the nose: What is shame! The definition of this word is also determined by the strong, and only the winner is qualified to say what shame is!
General Bobble glared at him and said: What do you know! Killing enemies on the battlefield is completely different from slaughtering unarmed civilians!
Among the senior generals of these three legions, Bobble, who was thirty-five years old, was the oldest elder. He was very disdainful of Robin, who had just appeared in his mouth. He always thought that he had climbed to his current position because of his brother's relationship.
Robin pretended not to see Bobble's disdainful eyes
He said neither arrogant nor humblely: Because King Bemon has always refused to go out to fight, our supply situation is not allowed to fight a protracted battle here. The blood-colored plan is the best way to force orcs to come out to fight!
King Bemon has been through the battlefield for a long time, so he won’t be unable to see this! What if he still refuses to fight if he endures the pain?
He had no choice! King Bemon is very smart, but the new Orc King Glea may not be as smart as him! One day, the emperor and one minister, according to the existing information, the Orc King Glea has always been in a row with King Bemon and has long wanted to replace him, but now there is only one excuse! After the implementation of the Blood Plan, if King Bemon refuses to fight, you can imagine how much pressure he will be under! At that time, the Orc King will be in a battle and the situation will be completely different!
Orvimas and I watched Robin and Poble debate quietly. We have been observing him all the time.
He was born for war. His cold blood and calmness, his cautiousness and subtlety, his ability to accept new things, his military literacy, and Robin's ability in all aspects have left a deep impression on us.
Orvimas and I didn't read the wrong person back then. This child is indeed qualified to become the third gecko.
Seeing that the two sides were talking louder and louder, in order not to cause conflict, I knocked on the table and asked the two to stop.
Your Majesty has approved it, and the Blood Color Plan must be implemented!
Everyone was indifferent
Then I announced: But don’t worry, the one who officially executed this order is the ghost legion that you have been unable to understand recently! The rest of the legions only need auxiliary support!
