Chapter 167 167 Reinforcement"Woo..." The siren suddenly sounded in the calm barracks, and all the barracks were suddenly filled with become noisy.
Every soldier began to pack his luggage nervously. The weapons stored outside the barracks were picked up by one by one, and the helmets hanging on the weapons were also picked up by one by one. Down.
The gray uniforms are covered with tactical vests made of canvas, and Alanhill's infantry equipment has also undergone tremendous changes over the past year. The original armament belt has been simplified and replaced by a more rational tactical vest design.
The M42 steel helmet is still the classic standard configuration, but there is an extra layer of camouflage net like a fishing net on it. The soldiers walked out of the barracks one by one in silence, and formed a neat line in the open space outside the barracks door.
"Stand at attention! Take a rest! Stand at attention!" With the slogan one after another, the platoon commanders walked past the troops under their command. Every soldier was nervous and full of energy, and they looked at their officers with curiosity and longing in their eyes.
"The 9th Division is assembled! It can be dispatched at any time!" An officer walked up to a valiant and formidable looking female general, stood at attention and saluted, reporting: "General please give instructions!"
Cape Luna is not to old, even very young, but she is still the most admired commander of the 9th Army. She performed very well in the work of forming the 9th Army, showing extraordinary organizational skills.
Now, the female general holds her hands behind her back and raises her chin as she looks at the soldiers who have already lined up in front of her. Satisfied, she gives her order: "Go!"
A total of 4 armies are deployed in the Veronsa area, each with their own strategic mission.
In fact, the troops that were originally going to support Grecon were the Mechanized 1st and 2nd Armies, also known as the Alanhill 1st and 2nd Armies.
However, because the railway was not fully repaired, the 1st and 2nd armies were not suitable for reinforcements of Greken because of the highest degree of mechanization.
After all, what troubled Alanhill's army was not the enemy in front of him, but the supplies behind him. Therefore, after weighing it, the 9th Army, which was originally in charge of the rear of the palace, became the most suitable army to join the battle first because of its moderate size.
This unit has its own armored units, but there are also light infantry that don't take much logistical supplies, and it is a unit that can barely be maintained with half a railroad. And this unit is from Higgs. Under the organization of Luna Princess, the training is the best, and the battle strength is also quite strong.
In several railway stations in the Veronsa area, the tanks of the 9th Army are loaded on standby. All the tanks were loaded onto flatbed trains, secured with wire ropes. Beautiful rune is drawn on the armor of most tanks.
The soldiers were crowded in the passenger compartment, and everyone looked curiously at the comrades waiting on the platform, waiting for the time for the train to depart.
"The 1st Air Force, which is responsible for covering us, has already left, and the airport near Greiken has already been repaired... But the supporting facilities still have to be transported, so..." Walking out of the barracks, General Alfred, Chief of Staff of the 9th Army, who was with Cape Luna Princess, looked up at the sky and said, "The transport is not over."
Above their heads, there were at least 50 aircraft C-47 transport planes flew in formation. These transport planes were responsible for transporting the ground crew of the First Army of the Air Force, as well as various necessary maintenance equipment.
Grecon had planned to help Alanhill's reinforcements reserve gasoline before, so the transportation pressure was somewhat relieved, and at least the advancing troops had some confidence.
"We still have air support? Ha! It's good." Looking at the transport planes in the sky, a smile appeared on Cape Luna's face: " I thought we were going to fight alone over there."
"Impossible, at the same time, the paratroopers of the Air Force, probably a division, were reinforced for us." Alfred The general sat in the front row of the car, turned around and said to Luna: "A rocket regiment of the 1st Army has also been transferred to us, but when we go to Greken this time, the light infantry is still the main force."
"Higgs are never afraid of sacrifice and bloodshed!" Cape Luna looked at the grenadiers lining up on the road passing by in her car, and said proudly: "We are willing to fight for this world, Until the end!"
Following her car were trucks full of soldiers, towing a brand new 155mm howitzer.
The long army of soldiers has no end in sight. The 100,000-level army can be mobilized, and the grandiose can stretch for several kilometers. This kind of thing does not happen often, so the local civilians in Veronsa are also Curiously looked at these soldiers who were about to go west.
"Mother, mother! Are they going to fight the Holy Demon Emperor?" A little girl asked while holding mother's arm, shaking her mouth.
Her mother looked worried, lowered her head to comfort her daughter and said, "Mother doesn't know either, I hope the war will never break out..."
While they were talking At that time, an M4 tank covered with rune rumbled past them, and a group of Alanhill Grenadiers armed with STG-44 assault rifles overlooked the civilians of Veronsa.
Some of them had stern faces, while others showed their white teeth and smiled at these ordinary people. Their tanks and cars swept up the dust, making the crowd involuntarily take a few steps back, covering their noses.
On top of these tanks, a giant dragon whistled past, and this time the Velonsa area also assembled its own troops. After Alanhill's mobilization order was issued, the Velonsa area will also dispatch a team. The troops fought with the 9th Army.
This unit doesn't need much logistical supplies, or the more they move westward, the stronger they become - this magical unit will serve as an auxiliary force and participate in the combat operations of the 9th Army , in order to test the feasibility of the cooperation between the Magic Arms and the Mechanized Corps.
Just as the 9th Army grandiose began to mass west along the railway line, far to the west, in Graken, in a quiet cemetery.
A girl with big eyes is sitting on her knees in front of a mottled stone tablet, she wipes her tears, she is weak and lovable.
"father...you gave your life 300 years ago in exchange for 300 years of Gricken's peace...yesterday my teacher and my senior launched a magical forbidden spell together , they, like you, gave their lives..." The girl was in front of the tombstone, weeping and telling her sadness intermittently.
"You succeeded, but we failed... The magic eye is still active, 10 magicians stronger than me, just sacrificed in vain." Her tears fell. In the dirt in front of the knees, crystal clear and near-transparent one by one.
"Tell me, what else can we do? What can we do?" The voice of the question drifted through the air, but no one answered.
"Vivian... If this is our destiny, then we have to accept it, don't we?" A white giant wolf squatted behind the girl and spoke human's words with pity.
"father, I'm going to fight, for Gricken, for the weak people behind us. Please give me strength..." She got up from the ground and put her hand on the tombstone, What passed to her heart was only coldness.
A magical lightning fell in the distance, and the magical atmosphere in the cloud-covered Greken area was already very chaotic. Countless terrifying demonic creatures are scattered in the eyes of magic, and the once beautiful Greken has changed greatly.
The slender figure swayed in the wind with the mask that Chris had seen on his face. For the first time, Vivian became reticent, as if she had really grown up overnight.
"Mr. Wolf, regroup our army on the ground! Protect the magic capital Grissom! Our reinforcements are already on their way, as long as we persevere, we will be able to attack the Eye of Magic when they arrive. Counterattack."
"You are so optimistic about those mortals?" giant wolf got up from the ground, his tall figure was comparable to that of an elephant. When he spoke, the sharp teeth in his mouth flashed with a cold light, and at first glance, he was a very difficult guy.
"There is no news from the puppet empire, and the reinforcements of the elves and giant dragons do not know when they will arrive...maybe they will never come...so, we can only count on those An army of mortals." Vivian replied as she walked forward.
The magic robe on her body was shaking in the wind, and the light of the magic inscription exuded a peaceful breath in the gale: "And, if you have seen those mortal weapons with your own eyes, you will know mine. Meaning. They don't rely on magic to fight, which makes them more suitable for war of attrition."
"When you say that, I have a bottom line. If they can help us defend the flank, attack the magic Eyes have a chance." Giant wolf step by step followed behind Vivian, fluffy white hair fluttering in the wind.
"I have a lot of confidence in them...Come on, go meet the Great Archmages, we must now protect those civilians from the War Zone, and protect those important oil depots and airports...
" There's a lot of work."
"Those mortals...it's really troublesome...they are fighting, why do they need so many things?" giant wolf complained angrily when he heard Vivian's words.
"Don't complain! When they come, you will find that they are a group of interesting little fellows." Thinking of the interesting emperor Your Majesty, the face behind Vivian's mask , showing a faint smile.
