Memorize Chapter 043
The so-called three armies have not moved, food and grass go first.
Although Bran's military edict stated that the gray-clothed army should be wiped out immediately, it will take time to deploy soldiers, transport combat equipment, and rush to the rear. So it was not until the early morning three days later that the Zichen Legion rushed to the gathering place for this extermination operation.
This is a gentle mountainous area, which has been martial law by soldiers. All kinds of military flags were flying over the camp, including flames, plants, monsters... Counting carefully, there were six of them. The troops sent by the two legions and the four lords were all there, and the Zichen army was the last one to arrive. .
After setting up the camp, a large group of people came out from the big tent of the Zichen Legion and walked towards the center of the camp.
Walking in the front is a soldier with a straight body and a deadpan face. Oh, judging from the style of his armor, he should be a general. Next to him was a middle-aged man like an adjutant. As for the group of people in the back, their clothes are mixed. They are generally younger, some wear armor, some wear military uniforms, and some simply wear gorgeous fleece robes.
This group of young people seemed to be quite curious, and they kept pointing around the camp.
The general in front just walked in silence, ignoring them. But the adjutant seemed to have a good temper, and said to everyone with a smile: "All the outstanding students of Branland's First Military Academy, this is the barracks where the troops are stationed. You need to observe carefully, there is a lot of attention here Yes. Don’t disappoint the marshal’s thoughts.”
"Don't worry, Brigadier General, we will live up to the Marshal's expectations!" A young man stood up and said loudly.
"Hehe, that's good."
It turned out that this group of young people were military academy students who had visited and studied in the Zichen Legion. Zi Yi handed them over to Ralph before the troops set off. I want them to see what the actual combat of the troops is like in this extermination battle.
At this time, a young man who was quite arrogant came out and said: "Master General, what is our mission this time? I wonder if we can personally lead the troops to fight a battle?"
After a pause, Ralph turned his head and remained silent for a while: "Say less, watch more!" After speaking, he continued to walk forward.
Uh... Everyone was silent, and the young man's face flushed even more.
"Ahem, in fact, the meaning of the general is..." The adjutant came out to save the scene as if he had been prepared.
Not long after, this group of people came to the center of the camp, where a huge marching tent was pitched.
"Haha, just now we guessed who the Zichen Legion would send this time, but we didn't expect it to be General Ralph, the Silent Eagle." Amidst the loud voice, a burly man with a black beard greeted him with a smile on his face. out.
Immediately afterwards, another middle-aged man with a gloomy face lifted the curtain and walked out, saying in a strange tone: "Hehe, in fact, it doesn't matter who comes. Who knows the prestige of the Zichen Legion? I'm afraid even a small soldier is better than us." People need to be strong, but fortunately we have waited here for a whole day."
"General Barlow." Ralph nodded to the strong man, ignoring the middle-aged man who came out later.
"You..." The middle-aged man stared and was about to get angry.
"Eh, this is in the back?" General Barlow immediately stood between the two of them and changed the subject.
Ralph remained expressionless: "Student."
"Uh... students?"
The adjutant immediately stepped forward and saluted: "Two generals, this is an outstanding student from Bran's First Military Academy. This time, he came to visit and study with us."
Then he turned around and made a false quotation, "Students, let me introduce you. This is General Barlow, the battle mad general of the Thunder Legion. This is General Gary, the Northern Wolf of the Blue Flame Legion."
"Hi, general." "I met the general..."
"Haha, everything is fine, everything is fine!"
...The Silent Eagle, the Crazy General in Battle, the Northern Gray Wolf... The famous generals who can be called are naturally not small characters. In fact, they are the main force of each legion. From this, we can also see that Branland Pay attention to this encirclement and suppression.
With Ralph, an expert in the cold, there was naturally no pleasantries, and everyone entered the tent together.
After sitting down, the three generals exchanged information. The Zichen Army led 8,000 soldiers, the Thunder Army led 10,000 soldiers, and the Cangyan Army led 10,000 soldiers. A total of 28,000 soldiers were dispatched from the three major armies.
While chatting, four more men in armor walked in and saluted Ralph one after another. Needless to say, these four people are naturally the generals sent by the four northern lords. Since then, all the generals who encircled and suppressed the Gray Army have arrived.
Next came the formal military meeting, but in fact the meeting didn't last long. Several generals gathered around a giant map and decided their respective areas of suppression like dividing cakes.
As for cooperation? Do not make jokes. Who will be the head? Who will obey whom... The range is certain, Ralph stood up and nodded slightly to everyone, then turned and left. The adjutant saluted the generals with a wry smile, and then led the group of military students away.
In an instant, the big account was emptied a lot. The generals were a little dumbfounded. Although the discussion is over, at least you have to be polite to each other and have a dinner to connect with each other... You really deserve to be the legendary general with facial paralysis and cold field... Outside the tent, a student suddenly said, "General, I have a question to ask."
Ralph turned around: "Say."
"How many people are there in the Gray Army?"
"Twenty thousand."
"Uh, only 20,000?" The student said in amazement: "Our three major armies have nearly 30,000 people, and the four major lords have another 30,000. Is there still a need to fight this battle? Uh, why did so many encirclement and suppression before fail? ?”
"That's right, isn't this just a waste of the empire's supplies and not doing anything?"
"No wonder the empire has never attacked the Northern Wilderness tribe for so many years..."
Ralph gave the person who asked the question a fixed look, turned around, and walked west: "Come on!"
... "Ahem, follow up everyone, you will soon know why." The adjutant calmly came out to explain.
The students looked at each other in blank dismay, then followed Ralph's pace.
The camps are naturally planned, and each army has its own territory. Before they had traveled far, they saw a fluttering wolf-headed battle flag.
"Hey, isn't this the camp of Lord Solomon?" The students of the First Military Academy were all from prominent families, and most of their families were hereditary nobles. They naturally knew the battle flag of the Grand Duke Solomon, one of the four northern lords.
In fact, it is a camp. If it weren't for two listless soldiers guarding there, you wouldn't even know where the camp gate is.
And it stands to reason that if a stranger approaches this important military site, someone should immediately come up to stop and interrogate him. But the two soldiers looked up at Ralph and his party who were coming down, leaned against the wall again and continued to doze off.
So, everyone walked smoothly to the center of the camp gate.
Looking inside through the gate, there are no guards patrolling, no soldiers practicing... Weapons are scattered on the ground, armor is piled up next to it, and most of the soldiers in groups of three or four find a leeward place to gather together, or happily yell for money. Yes, or gleefully talking about huge breasts, white thighs, etc... This...is a military camp? All the students were dumbfounded.
At this moment, a group of ashen-faced, blue-eyed and swollen soldiers walked to the gate of the camp from a distance, supporting each other.
"Brothers, hurry up and help, our people have been beaten by rabbit mouths!"
Uh... the soldiers turned their gazes over.
"Damn, what?"
"Are you looking for death? See if I don't cut them to death."
"Hey, I won this, don't steal money..."
... There was a period of turmoil, and I saw these soldiers put on their armor in a hurry, and then they didn't know where to take out wooden sticks with thick arms, and rushed out of the camp to the south in a swarm.
Rabbit mouth flower? The teams that came this time, so to speak, are flowers, that is Lord Hogan's three-leaf flower battle flag... Sanye? Rabbit mouth... Seeing the group of hooligan-like soldiers whizzing by in front of them, the students were once again speechless.
"Understood?" Ralph asked calmly.
"Uh, I understand!" The student nodded in despair. With such a companion of soldiers, why worry about being undefeated... "Very good." After speaking, Ralph turned and walked towards the camp of the Zichen Army.
