Chapter 919

2014-08-16

It is hard to say whether the Titus military has the possibility of taking revenge against the Grey Cloth Armed Force and making preparations . .But right now, this army from Cang Yan Legion is definitely not ready. In just a quarter of an hour after the battle,

bang, bang, bang... Several large red signal flares exploded in series, instantly turning red. A large twilight night sky, extremely dazzling.

The fierce battlefield was paused, and for a while, the two sides in the entanglement subconsciously took a step back and separated slightly.

On the one hand, he is mostly yellow and thin, and he mixes and matches all kinds of old armor. Only its both eyes are bright and blood red, like a wild beast, and the violence in the eyes means that it is not reduced by half because of this short pause. One of them was wearing imperial armor, with a horrified expression on his face, looking towards the group of refugees in front of him with dazed eyes, as if he had seen an enemy that was familiar to him in the past, the crazy barbarian from the Northern Wilderness... They looked at each other, and immediately, more In order for the fierce fighting to resume in an instant, the two sides entangled again, screaming violently, or screaming at death...

In fact, there is no suspense in the battle situation. Those beams of signal flares from inside the fortifications were not for the purpose of seeking reinforcements, it was definitely too late, it was just to warn the rear blockade, lest this tragic scene be staged again.

As for the blockade line at the moment, if the Cang Yan army does not want to be wiped out here, the black-faced general may consider the strategy of the strong man breaking his wrist, leaving a part of his troops to break the back, and then let the others. Some of the soldiers fled...in fact, that's what he did.

Watching some bonfires gather behind the fortifications from afar, Joah withdrew his gaze, waved his hand to summon the messengers, and said calmly: "Order, go up and surround this place on the left and right flanks, don't worry about those who have fled, and wipe them out as soon as possible. Drop the remaining enemy troops...and also, let General Frey withdraw."

"Yes." The messenger responded nodded, turned Rapid Speed and ran down the mound.

"Hehe, you are doing this, Chief. Big Brother Lei is coming back to make a fuss. You must know that this is his last charge." With a chuckle, the young officer with freckles stepped forward. One step, shook his head, said with a smile.

It seems that they are very familiar. But in fact, looking at the right position half a position behind Joah, I also know that this young man is a smart man, and his proportions are excellent.

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and Joah also smiled and shook his head: "Ferry, Big Brother Lei likes the feeling of breaking the formation, and now the enemy's formation has already been broken by him, and the rest of the time is just cleaning. That's all for the battlefield, so don't blame me. And..." paused, sighed, "I still think it's too dangerous! Alas, the old Marshal Au Meng's health is getting worse, he can't let him work the military anymore, otherwise... um, now , Big Brother Lei is very important to this Grey Cloth Armed Force!"

It goes without saying that this young officer is naturally one of Tang En's few friends in the Grey Cloth Armed Force, Ferry ! Hearing Joah's slightly helpless sigh, Fei Rui's expression darkened slightly, and he couldn't help but be silent.

Logically speaking, with the Purple Artillery, the ultimate weapon, the current battle strength of Grey Cloth Armed Force is naturally much stronger than before. The actual situation is almost the same, but it must be pointed out that the current Grey Cloth Armed Force also has a very fatal shortcoming - only generals, no marshals!

During the Great Retreat of Dawn City, the old marshal Ou Meng suffered some injuries, but only minor injuries. Everyone, including Ou Meng, didn't care. After all, in the case of Oumeng's ups and downs on the battlefield for several decades, after thousands of battles large and small, a little injury is not worth mentioning at all, and at most it leaves a scar. This is also a unique medal for warriors!

But then the situation is completely different. Since ancient times, famous generals are like beautiful women, and they are not allowed to see white heads in the world. I don't know if it's because of aging and frailty that caused the body's various functions to take a turn for the worse, these small injuries on Ou Meng's body not only did not improve, but became more serious. In the end, the couch cannot afford...

The significance and importance of the old Marshal Aumont to the Grey Cloth Armed Force is self-evident. It is no exaggeration to say that the Grey Cloth Armed Force was brought up by Losa , also supported by Aumont. If Grey Cloth Armed Force is compared to an ocean-going battleship, Lothar is the rudder of the Proficient direction, and Omon is the bow of the sword that splits the waves!

But now, the bow of the ship has collapsed, and the old Marshal Aumeng has fallen...

The military structure of the Grey Cloth Armed Force is relatively simple. You can also choose one of the generals of the original army to be the top. But not now, don't forget that during the previous honeymoon between the Grey Cloth Armed Force and Titus, the Grey Cloth Armed Force dispatched a large number of soldiers into the front line in accordance with the agreement to resist the invasion of the northern barbarians together with the Titus army. Among them, there are the top generals of the First Army, Second Army, and Fourth Army of the original Grey Cloth Armed Force!

Needless to say, after the Northern Wilderness savages retreated, Titus broke the contract and brazenly attacked the gray-clothed reinforcements. In order to minimize the damage to the troops, the three generals made the same decision. He made the same choice - stay behind to attract the Titus army to attack, and let his soldiers flee as much as possible. In the end, I couldn't come back...

There are still the generals of the third army and the fifth army. Among them, the generals of the fifth army basically don't need to be considered. This is not to say that his military ability is not good, but the difference in tactical style. The generals of these five armies were extremely skilled in defense warfare, and even Aumen couldn't bear the accomplishments of defending the city. But the problem is that he is only skilled in defense battles, defending enough, but not aggressive enough, and his accomplishments in attacking fortresses are much worse. However, now the focus of the Grey Cloth Armed Force is on revenge, and the next step will be to play the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains and attack the hinterland of Titus, which is naturally out of reach for the generals of the Five Armies.

Without him, the only thing left is the generals of the three armies. He doesn't have a tactical style problem, but his other problems are more serious than this...

When Bosco was about to betray last year, the various forces that his family had infiltrated into the army worked together, including The situation of the three armies was the most serious. The one who opened the city gate of Dawn City and let in the enemy army was the Broadsword regiment of the three armies.

As a result, the three armies' reputation in Grey Cloth Armed Force is naturally not much better. As the top general of the three armies, the general was unknown, and he was burdened with a lot of guilt pressure. It seemed that a shadow had fallen in his heart. Although the strong man was never defeated, he was unwilling to take over as a marshal. Even though Joah and the others knew it had nothing to do with the general, strictly speaking it was a natural disaster[***], the Bosco family had been working in the Grey Cloth Armed Force for many years, even Lothar, Omon and the None of the others would have imagined that their family roots would be so deeply rooted, let alone this general.

But despite the hard persuasion of Joah, Ou Meng and the others, the general still failed to pass his psychological barrier and insisted that he would not accept a marshal...

In this way, the problem will be a big one. Au Meng obviously can no longer serve as a marshal, otherwise he is very likely to die in front of the military sand table. And those who are most qualified to inherit this position have either sacrificed their lives, or their tactical style is inappropriate, or they have psychological problems... A Grey Cloth Armed Force with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses is so large that there is no leader and no leader. Not to mention it's absurd!

In desperation, Joah and the others could only put aside the qualifications and look down. Fortunately, the new group also has the benefits of the new group. The current Grey Cloth Armed Force organization is relatively simple, and the people's hearts are also very simple. In the past, Luosha was respected, and now it is headed by Joah. As long as they issue authoritative orders, there is basically no objection. Or even if there is dissatisfaction in his heart, it is just dissatisfaction at the time, and it will not have any adverse effects... So when Joah decided to put aside his seniority and brainstorm a fair selection among the officers above the regiment. That is a fair competition for everyone. Those who do not have a position similar to a lieutenant general will feel that this method is humiliating their own status...

Of course, the candidates selected in this way are naturally impossible to be the marshals directly, always It will take a while to prove his abilities and convince Joah and the others that he will hopefully lead the army!

Although there are some limitations, the future is bright after all, so there are many people who are tempted for a while. It's just that although it is widely spread, there are very few goals that can really enter the eyes of high-level executives such as Joah.

No way, this is choosing a marshal, not a foreman. as the saying goes well, one general is incompetent, and the three armies are exhausted. The current Grey Cloth Armed Force can't stand any toss, so the conditions in all aspects are naturally harsh to the point of outrageous.

It was at this time that Frey entered the field of vision of everyone. If based on his qualifications, Frey, who just stepped on the level above the group and has the qualifications to participate in the selection, naturally has no advantage at all. In terms of loyalty to the Grey Cloth Armed Force, although there is no practical standard, Frey, who has only joined the Grey Cloth Armed Force in the past two years, is certainly not qualified...

But although this is not enough , that's not enough. But what I have to say is that Frey is very capable of fighting, very capable of fighting hard and winning battles, but it is an indisputable fact. In the internal training and confrontation of the Grey Cloth Armed Force, the long spear group led by Frey has a domineering record of complete victory and an undefeated golden body, which no one has ever broken!

And it is worth mentioning that the old Marshal Aumont is also very optimistic about Frey. When Frey first joined the Grey Cloth Armed Force two years ago, Aumont moved him to be his assistant. The idea was also mentioned face to face. It's just that Frey joined the Grey Cloth Armed Force at the beginning and wanted to go up by his own ability, so he politely rejected Ou Meng's kindness.

As the saying goes, gold shines everywhere, and Frey's professional military literacy is no problem at all, not to mention his undefeated gold body in Grey Cloth Armed Force. Recounting the previous history in detail, the name of the long spear breaking the formation battalion that broke into the Titus army is also the name of the battalion of the three armies, and his legend is still circulating in the thunder Legion. In this way, Joah naturally shines among marshal candidates without asking about qualifications or background.

apart from this, in fact, there is a hidden reason. Not many people know it, but it also plays a very important role - Frey's relationship with Tang En's!

As I said earlier, Tang En is not really a friend in Grey Cloth Armed Force. Excluding Joah's own family, the first one will belong to Frey. Fateful friendship. Two years ago, Tang En pulled Frey and the others to join the Grey Cloth Armed Force.

Of course Joah is very clear about this, so it's definitely impossible to say that she has no selfishness. There are many things that seem to be coincidental in the world, but when you look closely, many of them are man-made. For example, the selection boundary that just made Frey eligible to participate...

Of course, this is not actually cheating. First of all, the starting point is for the Grey Cloth Armed Force, and it would be good to relax the boundaries to allow more officers to participate. Also, even with Joah's secret help, it's no use if Frey is disappointing himself. After all, things in the army still have to rely on true ability to speak!

An example of this is Ferry, who is now standing next to Joah, a friend who has terrible mental arithmetic skills and is praised by Tang En as a smart guy. Joah also gave him a lot of power, promoting him from a small soldier in the army logistics department to one of the powerful figures in the logistics department.

Fei Rui did not disappoint Joah at all. In this extremely difficult year, Fei Rui relied on his terrifying calculation and operation ability, almost used the limited food to the limit, and gave full play to the maximum. chemical effect. Although it ended up being nicknamed 'cheapskate', its abilities are truly amazing, and I can't accept it...

Well, let's get down to business.

The middle selection process of the marshal candidate does not need to be detailed, just know that Frey finally became that candidate! Soaring like a rocket, he formally formed the Sixth Army of the Grey Cloth Armed Force and became the General of the Sixth Army. Even though it was two years late, he still came to the elderly Au Meng and listened to him every day. It's just that the identity is no longer an assistant, but a successor...

Of course, as I said just now, the current Frey is not a marshal in the true sense, and is still in the investigation period. For example, the pre-war plan for the current battle, although it was completely proposed by Frey, still had to be reviewed and discussed by the highest level of the more than ten armies, including Joah, before the final decision was made.

On the battlefield, fighter planes are changing rapidly, and this slightly cumbersome and protracted mode is naturally problematic. But Joah and the others are also helpless. After all, this is a big issue that involves hundreds of thousands of lives and deaths. It can be said that they have given Frey the greatest freedom and rights, and the rest can only be verified slowly through time. And...

Condescendingly, watching Frey leading the old group of Old Brothers to withdraw from the fortifications in the distance, and striding towards this side, Joah sighed inwardly, and his regretful expression flashed for a moment. . In fact, there is one more important reason. No one knows about her except her...

The old marshal of Au Meng is not dead yet, so whoever chooses a candidate will naturally have a role in determining the surname. Among the many candidates, Aumont does recognize Frey the most, but this does not mean that Frey is perfect and without blemish...

Joah clearly remembers Aumont's regretful evaluation of Frey, which is a A warrior born for the battlefield, if there is no accident, at this age, he is enough to grow into a generation of handsome talents. It's a pity that he spent more than ten years in the mine space... This fault did not wear away his military talent, but greatly delayed and reduced his progress Time and Space. Now he has no problem at all to become the general of the first army, but there is still a long way to go before he is the commander of the third army... What a pity!

Shaking his head slightly, Joah's eyes flickered slightly as he looked at Frey who was chatting happily with Old Brother not far away.

Perhaps, Big Brother Lei also knows his own shortcomings and regrets. Therefore, when he asked him to come out to fight for the position of Marshal, he hesitated for a long time before he saw himself agreeing. This should be because of Tang En's face, and he didn't want to disappoint himself...

It's just that Come, the weight of a mountain will also be on his shoulders. So, this time, Big Brother Lei insisted on leading the team in person for the last charge, probably to relieve the pressure...
