Alien Arms Empire.

Chapter 280 Chapter 280
With the counter-offensive of the Kingdom of Wright, the melee between 11 countries seems to have fundamentally changed the situation.

But soon, conflicts broke out in other areas, which suddenly made the outcome of this war confusing.

In the north, a war broke out between the Elm Kingdom and the Poplar Kingdom, and the two sides fought on the border.

Compared with the battle situation in the eastern part of the Wright Kingdom, the state of war here is a bit different. The two sides are still using the tactics of two years ago to attack each other, but the weapons they use are advanced needle guns and breech-loading guns.

This instantly increased the bloodiness of the war to an unbearable level. Within 3 days after the outbreak of the war, the two sides lost more than 3 people.

The poplar kingdom has an absolute advantage in machine gun firepower, but the elm kingdom has an advantage in the number of troops and artillery, so the two sides are tied, but the losses are rapidly escalating.

The Pinewood Kingdom also had to withdraw its troops from the border of the Poplarwood Kingdom in response to the attack from the Redwood Kingdom.

However, the Pinewood Kingdom recharged its energy and equipped it with some Tang Dynasty weapons and equipment, so it gained a certain degree of advantage on the battlefield.

They invaded the territory of the Redwood Kingdom, but because of lack of follow-up, they could only fall into a hard fight, and honestly stabilized the front line in an area about 50 kilometers deep into the Redwood Kingdom.

For a while, they attacked but were unable to attack, and they were a little bit reluctant to retreat, so they could only stick there and consume their troops little by little.

The Kingdom of Susas and the Kingdom of Falak also broke out in war. Because the tax reform of the Kingdom of Susas caused small-scale civil strife, they also fell into a passive state on the battlefield.

With Tang Mo's support, although Suzas stabilized the line of defense, it was impossible to expect them to counterattack.

Moreover, a large amount of Tang Mo's supplies had been transported to the eastern theater of the Wright Kingdom, so he had no spare energy to support another large-scale counterattack in Susas.

Now, the greatest pressure on the Datang Group is actually the Dorne Kingdom in the south - a coup has just taken place here, and the Dorne Kingdom has to face the attack of two neighboring countries alone. The situation is quite dangerous.

The Kingdom of Tarun assembled 3 troops on land, and cooperated with the more than 5 troops of the Kingdom of Helen, launched an attack on Dorn from two directions.

At the beginning, these troops were in full swing. The troops of the Kingdom of Hieron in the southeast had already approached King Dorne, and the troops of the Kingdom of Tarun in the southwest had also approached Rewind Harbor.

Most of the troops on Dorn's side were scattered over the vast territory because they wanted to control the occupied area, and they were completely unprepared for gathering to deal with war.

Therefore, although Dorne has 7 troops on paper, it is unable to parry the sudden attacks of the two neighboring countries and has been retreating.

However, they have been defeated and retreated to the key areas, and the commanders of the Dorne Kingdom also knew that they had no way to retreat.

Therefore, in the direction of the king's city, the new commander-in-chief of Dorn led a barely assembled 2 troops to meet Hieren's 5 troops.This young general named Bolton, who graduated from the second phase of the Datang Military Academy, is 27 years old this year and was a blacksmith two years ago.

In the direction of Rewind Harbor, the young commander of the Dorn Navy led 1 soldiers against the 3 troops from the Tarun Kingdom.The young general named Strauss, who also graduated from the second phase of the Datang Military Academy, is 28 years old and the son of a fisherman.

These two battles are almost the decisive battle that will determine the fate of Donne, or the fate of the Datang Group.

No one is optimistic about Dawn, because Dawn has really been extremely passive.It is not a famous general who commands the battle, and the number of troops mobilized is too small.

But what no one knew was that Dorne was not fighting alone. Almost at the same time as the coup, the Datang Group responded.

The world's only steam-powered transport ship made entirely of steel has just been put into use, and its mission is to transport a battalion of the 1st Regiment of the Datang Group to Refeng Harbor.

At the same time, Strauss, as the commander in the southwest direction, unexpectedly ordered the troops to retreat, and even rushed back for more than 100 kilometers in one breath, and retreated to the vicinity of Refeng Harbor before setting up a defensive position and starting to build a defensive position.

His retreat cleverly avoided the edge of the troops of the Tarun Kingdom, and the opponent's supply line had to be extended by more than 100 kilometers.

Then, after the troops of the Tarun Kingdom arrived at Refeng Harbor and rested for a day to prepare for the attack, the battalion of the Datang Group also arrived on the battlefield.

The ratio of troops between the two sides has indeed not undergone any earth-shaking changes, but each infantry platoon of the Datang Group's infantry battalion has two heavy machine guns, and the Datang Group's security force has a company plus an independent machine gun group of the company headquarters. There are 7 machine guns, and a full battalion has 23 heavy machine guns.

This number is about the same as the number of heavy machine guns in the entire Kingdom of Dorn, so Strauss surpassed the opponent in front of him in terms of firepower.

And then……

It even made the commander of Tarun Kingdom scold his mother.

Strauss came and did nothing, and directly released more than 300 sailors and officers from the Tarun Kingdom's naval fleet that were fished out of the sea.

Yes, let go!He released these captives before the formation of the two armies, and asked them to bring the news of the annihilation of the main fleet of the Tarun Kingdom back to their army officers and soldiers.

This move was the "besieged on all sides" he learned in the classroom of the Datang Military Academy, and it was a heart attack that could be called a critical attack, directly cutting down the army of the Tarun Kingdom.

The distraught commander of the Kingdom of Tarun desperately relied on his own soldiers to forcefully attack Rewind Harbor, and then he was in a tragedy.

The Refenggang defense line supported by naval artillery is simply a meat grinder that transcends the times. The troops of the Tarun Kingdom have tasted what is called despair here.

After a round of onslaught, 2000 soldiers died on the spot, and the attacking troops did not even touch the edge of the defensive position of Dorn's troops.

Afterwards, the unbelieving commander of Tarun Kingdom launched another crazier attack. He packed up 4000 people in one go, trying to penetrate the defense line of the Dorne army in one go.

This time he heard the continuous roar of the machine guns, the crossfire and the dense artillery fire directly shattered all his dreams of penetrating the defense line in an instant.

After the troops of the Kingdom of Tarun, whose morale had already been shaken, could only barely hold their ground after being frustrated in successive attacks.

The Tarun Kingdom commander who commanded this force tried his best to restrain the troops, but early the next morning, Strauss led all his troops to launch a counterattack.

This completely messed up the troops of the Tarun Kingdom whose morale had collapsed.They just made a symbolic resistance and retreated across the board.

Things became weird from this moment: the commander of Tarun Kingdom knew that nothing could be done, so he moved his own little mind.

While retreating with his troops, he plundered the people along the way, preparing to bring some benefits to the Tarun Kingdom to make up for the loss of this failure.

As a result, their robbery angered the local people.Comparing the two, the people who were not satisfied with the occupation of Dorne at first found that those who claimed to liberate them were nothing.

As a result, these people began to actively contact the Dornish troops scattered in the occupied area, who had not been assembled before, sent them information and news, and organized them to intercept the retreating Tarun Kingdom troops.

In the end, the rout turned into a group of Dorn's scattered troops scattered in the rear, who were already in disarray. They blocked all the way and finally pushed the main force of the Tarun Kingdom out of the border.

Then, everyone originally thought that after Strauss won the big victory, he should hunt down and kill the troops of Tarun Kingdom along the way.

But Strauss divided up 7000 troops and went to find the bad luck of the army of the Hellen Kingdom.

Just as the 7000 troops were rushing towards the royal city, Bolton led the 2 Dornish army, taking advantage of the terrain, dividing troops into ambush, and intercepting the supply line of the Hellen Kingdom.

After a bloody battle, Bolton led 2000 troops to victory, burned more than half of the food and supplies of Hellen's army, destroyed at least one-third of the ammunition, and then returned in triumph.

At the cost of 1200 people, he made the 5 army of the Hieron Kingdom unable to continue going north, ensuring the absolute safety of the royal city.

What made Cyric's contact person furious was that the Kingdom of Siren had to wait in place for a precious 5 days, and sent troops back to protect its supply line.

When this army began to creep forward again, in front of them were the three trench defenses that Bolton had built.

These lines of defense, which were harder than turtle shells, blocked the footsteps of Hellen's troops. After five days of fierce attack, the commander of the Kingdom of Hellen, who paid the price of 5 people, realized what kind of trick his opponent was playing.

Bolton has been constantly building fortifications. Every time a line of defense is repaired, he will voluntarily abandon a broken line of defense in front, maintaining a slow retreat rhythm little by little.

And these tricky lines of defense did consume the troops of the Kingdom of Hellen, which annoyed the commander of the Kingdom of Helen very much.

What's more, these lines of defense delay time!After so many days, Dorne is recovering from the blow of the coup d'etat, and the entire Dorne army is regrouping.

All fools know that if this consumption continues, Dorne, who has obviously recovered his national strength, will occupy the home field advantage and make the Kingdom of Hillen and the Kingdom of Tarun pay a heavier price.

As a result, the commander of the Kingdom of Hieron sent a messenger to urge the Tarun troops on the other side who were in charge of attacking Hotwind Harbor, hoping that they could attack quickly...

What he didn't know was that a whole army of 7000 people had already approached the battle zone of the royal city, and relying on the advantage of being familiar with the terrain, it was moving towards the side and rear of the Hellen Kingdom troops at full speed.
