Alien Arms Empire.

Chapter 164 Chapter 164
"General, the 17th Legion is about to lose its hold! The opponent's weapons are quite powerful! They are much more powerful than Cyric's muskets before! If they are defeated, our frontal defense line will be breached!" The orc general in bright armor and a light-colored blouse said.

Facing the attack of the Poplar Kingdom, the army of the Orc Kingdom Gales seemed to be more passive than before.They have now had four legions completely defeated, and one main force is crumbling.

The leading orc general still didn't say a word, he was waiting, waiting for definite news from the troops on his two wings.The counterattack must be successful in one blow, otherwise, when the elves on the opposite side stabilize their position, the sharper firearms on the other side will come into play.

After a while, a black war horse galloped from a distance, and an officer wearing the same military uniform reined in the reins. The horse slowed down and stopped in front of the curtain of the Chinese army.

"General Mark reports that the enemy's army at the forefront is moving towards the various army units in front of me, and the formation has been fully deployed!" The horse stopped, and the person who came immediately reported loudly.

Many staff generals began to discuss, and there was some buzzing noise in the curtain tent. From time to time, someone was pointing on the huge map hanging up, and they deduced various possible combat plans of the enemy army.

Behind the many generals of the Chinese Army Command, a young general leaned on a chair, fiddling with a bloody K1 fast gun in his hand, brushing the dried blood on the rifle with his fingers, looking still Very serious.

Suddenly, the young orc raised his head, a pair of bright eyes gleamed on his ugly face.

He was wearing better-looking armor, but it didn't show half a bit of mighty aura. On the contrary, it still made him look a little different. Compared with a group of generals of the same clan who were five big and three thick, he was more like a student studying.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" The leading general who had not issued an order looked at the young orc, frowned and walked over, asking, "What do you think?"

To be honest, he doesn't like this weak Crown Prince very much, because this Crown Prince is too weak and has no orc heroic temperament at all.

However, the current king only has such a son, so this orc who looks more like a student is still the hope of the future of the entire Kingdom of Galais.

"Me? If I am in charge of this battle, I will order the troops on both wings to continue to stand by, and then attack at the same time after the opponent is completely overwhelmed, and destroy the enemy's follow-up artillery at all costs!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince held the The K1 quick gun leaned upright against the chair where he was sitting, stood up and patted the unnecessary dust on the armor on his body, walked to the front of the map, pointed to the sides and said.

As he spoke, he stretched out his other hand and pressed it on the map: "After we succeed, we will take advantage of our army's strength twice that of the enemy's, and use the simplest and rudest way to destroy the enemy army that has lost its artillery."

"If you do this, the elite 17th Army of our army will be finished! And not only the 17th Army, but even the other two armies on their flanks may suffer heavy losses..." The leading general asked again, frowning. One sentence.

"Your Excellency, we have recruited tens of thousands of troops, leaping horses and raising swords into the decisive battle area. We are sending them to die. What we want to achieve is victory! How to send them to die will not show our strength. Kindness." The crown prince said calmly: "All we can do is to exchange their deaths for victory, instead of letting them close their eyes with failure."

The leading general was taken aback for a moment, and then looked at His Royal Highness, the crown prince whom he had always disliked, as if he saw another appearance of the crown prince under the cover of his weak appearance.

Then he didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and he even opened his mouth to remind: "Although what you said is the truth, your highness, as the crown prince, you still have to be kind..."

In the past, he would not have said such a thing.But today, he said it, and he said it very sincerely.

"Actually, general...we are too backward. Not only do we not have a decent arms industry, but we also don't have a qualified intelligence agency...we don't even know anything about new weapons." His Royal Highness looked at the chair The captured K1 quick gun, said with some heartache: "This is wrong, and it is also the reason why we have suffered heavy losses this time and paid the price in blood! If we continue like this, the country may soon perish!"

Hearing the reprimand from His Royal Highness, many generals bowed their heads in shame.Frankly speaking, their news is indeed too closed, and they have never even heard of the news that the elves on the opposite side have installed new weapons.

Because the two countries have been in a state of war for a long time, it is almost impossible to send spies to each other.

After all, this is indeed an embarrassing problem: they look completely different from elves, so spying can't be done at all.

As long as the other party is not blind, one can tell whether the other party is an orc or an elf at a glance, and the poplar kingdom on the opposite side happens to be a "pure blood country" that extremely rejects orcs for a long time.

In this world, there are countries that tolerate all races, and there are countries that simply insist on their own race. The Kingdom of Wright does not reject elves and dwarves, and even allows criminals to live there. However, the Kingdom of Yangmu is just the opposite. They almost only deal with humans, and their ancestors have hated them for generations. Orcs.

Of course, not all elves hate the orcs. Some elves have a good relationship with the orcs, and they have trade relations.

However, the poplar kingdom's rejection of the orcs directly caused the orcs of the Garais kingdom to not get first-hand information - if they want to know the changes in the poplar kingdom, they need to inquire from other elf kingdoms.

However, the efficiency of this kind of information collection in a circle is obviously seriously lagging behind. Basically, the Kingdom of Galais can only get the trends and changes of the elves half a year ago...

It was precisely because of this that the Poplar Wood Kingdom took the lead in attacking the orcs, using the new rifle that was secretly installed half a year ago, and gave the orcs a surprise.

The leading orc generals also knew that they had already lost one point in terms of intelligence, and their tactical disadvantage was doomed.

This directly led to the passiveness on the frontal battlefield, and also made those damn elves cut into his central battlefield like a bamboo.

Obviously, the opponent's forward force, which is the spearhead, is actually powerless to stop the orcs. If the opponent has enough ammunition, it is only a matter of time before they defeat their own side.

This result has nothing to do with the bravery of the orcs. Bravery only delays the collapse, but cannot change the outcome of the battle.

Therefore, the only thing that can influence the outcome of this battle is the decision-making judgment that is higher than that of the opposing commander.

As the commander of the orc clan, he must make the right choice and use more lives in exchange for the victory that must be in his hands!
……

The elves' central army headquarters, riding on a horse, with hair neatly combed behind his back, the old elves Earl Augustin Tural looked at his troops who were organizing an attack, with a contemptuous smile on his face.

Obviously, the orcs are at the end of their ropes!Their positions are crumbling, their blood has already stained the earth red!
Relying on his own 6000 brand new K1 fast guns, the outcome of this war is destined to belong to the elves in his opinion.

Those damn orcs will lose the Senna Plain... And he, the most prominent patriarch in the history of the Augustine family, will become the first person in the family to be conferred the title of Marquis by the king.

He will be the new Prime Minister of the Poplar Kingdom.And his assisted His Majesty the King will have twice the current territory!
In another year, the Yangmu Kingdom will have the strength to annex several small countries around it, and become one of the largest powers after the Elf Kingdom.

Even, at the moment when his own troops destroyed a phalanx of the opponent again, he thought of the distant and unfamiliar word empire.

"My lord! On the two wings of our army, the enemy's wolf cavalry has been active all the time. Are we..." A general riding a horse stopped beside Tular, wanting to remind him.

In fact, Tural also had his own calculations, so he interrupted the other party: "When our army rushes to the center and splits the enemy army, how much waves can their two wings make?"

In fact, it is not that he is ignorant of the danger on the two wings, but in fact, the elves are not without their own problems.

On the one hand, after all, they are the first to attack, and the accumulated ammunition is actually not very sufficient.The vanguard defeated 4 orc legions in a row, and the consumption was naturally very astonishing.

On the other hand, as he said, the sharp knives he slashed at the orcs were already about to cut through the lean meat of the orcs' central defense line. Once he knocked down the orcs in front of him, he could destroy the orc artillery positions behind. Victory was already in hand.

Instead of stopping now and dividing up the troops to find those orc wolf knights who don't know where they are, it is better to honestly defeat the enemy in front of them and win directly.

What's more, he didn't care about the safety of the two wings at all. At the beginning of this battle, he set up a very safe diamond-shaped formation, which was quite satisfactory.

Among the 11 legions of the elves participating in the battle, 4 legions equipped with new muskets were placed directly in front of them, giving full play to their superiority in firepower to maintain an offensive posture, and they were the spearheads of the entire elves' attack.

Two legions were deployed on the left and right flanks. Their task was to defend the flanks and resist the wolf knight troops that the orcs might turn around.

The remaining three corps were deployed last, serving as campaign reserves.If there is a problem with the placement, these troops can be deployed to support.In addition, this force also shoulders tasks such as escorting ammunition, transporting supplies, and guarding the back road.

It can be said that such a formation is basically the safest formation.
