Chapter 944 946 The Forgotten Legion"There is no way for helicopters to reach all places, many remote villages, there is no suitable starting point Descending area!" In the headquarters of the 6th Army Group, Bourgeois' chief of staff was reporting the situation in the disaster area to the commander-in-chief Bourgess.
This headquarters is located on the outskirts of Shackburn, in a well-preserved castle. It is spacious and bright, and the furniture has been rearranged. The windows of the castle have been replaced. The bright glass windows cut off the coolness outside and let the warm sunlight pass through, making the entire Conference Hall comfortable.
It's really not extravagant. If even the headquarters of a large corps with more than 200,000 troops is very shabby, it means that the war situation has gone downhill-obviously, the Alanhill Empire is still far from downhill. There is a long way to go...
The 6th Army Group is trying to save the civilians in its own area, and now they are facing a situation even more serious than the expeditionary force fighting the demon in the Demon Realm.
Because of the shortage of troops, the chief of general staff of the 6th Army Group said worriedly: "The number of vertical paratroopers assigned to us by the General Headquarters is still too small, although we have sent two divisions, 2 The army aviation mobile unit of more than 10,000 people is still stretched."
Bourgeois was silent, and in the past year or so, his life has not been satisfactory.
Like Koriya, who was also on the Southeastern Front, he hadn't really fought a battle for over a year. As a military commander, this is absolutely ironic.
The Alanhill Empire is still at war, and the Demon Realm expedition is still in full swing with the devil, but he sits in the south, and everyday all can only do some work such as helping the local construction of roads.
If he was given a choice, he would rather replace Heidikanon to command an armored army than waste time and life here.
I don't know that Bourgeois is thinking about all kinds of things here, but his chief of staff is still introducing the rescue work in the disaster area: "There are too many places to be rescued, and our intelligence in the southern region is relatively It is relatively backward, which makes the rescue work several times more and spreads our strength."
"The map we got was made ten years ago, and the accuracy of the drawing can be imagined. We did a comparison with satellite images, and the problem is very serious." At the other end of the conference table, the commander of the 6th Panzer Corps, who was two years younger than Bourgeois, complained.
He had never encountered such a suffocating combat mission. His troops often spent a whole day looking for a non-existent village on the map, wasting countless gas and also Makes soldiers very tired.
From time to time, rotting corpses can be seen along the road, some demons and some humans, and some other creatures, towns with people and villages with no people are everywhere, which makes him very embarrassed.
Just listen to him continue: "We can't count the villages that are too small, and the temporarily drawn satellite map is not very accurate, and it needs to be corrected manually, which is a waste of our troops."
p>
There are rumors everywhere, some local civilians claim to have seen the eggs of demon dogs in some places, and some villagers suspect that they were eaten by giant snakes or other devil beasts that escaped from the battlefield.
It's a mess anyway, troops need to be vigilant in field operations, and the overwhelming majority's danger reports are actually wrong.
The reports of locals who claimed to have seen demon dogs were quickly confirmed to be just ordinary wild beasts, and even mutated devil beasts were of low risk.
After all, the entire southern region has been repeatedly cleared by Alanhill's Combat Unit, and the demons have no extensive guerrilla base in the human world, so it is unlikely to hide and threaten the security of the nearby area for a long time.
"In addition, some villages have long been abandoned due to the invasion of demons, and the buildings are empty. After we arrived, we found that there was no one there." The young commander was also experienced, but this This kind of task is not suitable for a commander like him.
After he finished this sentence, he continued: "There are other villages, which were all dead when we went... Everyone died, we wasted fuel, wasted materials, and Wasted soldiers' time, but not a single person was saved!"
"There are too few Osprey helicopters, and our UH-1 helicopters have limited capacity. UH-60 helicopters are very good, but unfortunately there are not many ... "The Army Air Corps commander who was reinforced looked much more mature, even a little bald.
It's just that this commander is only in his 40s, because he was an aviation pilot before, and he took too much pure oxygen, so he bald and looked a bit vicissitudes.
"The above means...let the Dragon Knight units try..." After talking about the difficulties of the helicopter unit, he offered a solution that sounds unimaginable.
"Dragon Knight?" After hearing this statement, Bourgeois was stunned for a moment. He knew that the magician army's trust in the above has been greatly reduced due to the assassination incident. At this time, magician was dispatched. The troops are really meaningful.
"Well, those guys who are almost forgotten! The Dragon Knight unit has always been in charge of regional security, and now in large and prosperous cities, even the mounted police have been eliminated... So, maybe there is only one left. At this time, the role of Dragon Knight can be reflected!" The commander of Lu Hang gave his opinion purely from the point of view of rationality.
"Hey...that's really a solution!" Bourgeois, who had come to think about it, understood what Chris meant.
After all, he was also a veteran general who followed Chris in his early years, and of course he knew Chris's temperament: the emperor Your Majesty, sometimes not so many twists and turns, can be said to be a model of straight character.
It's hard to say, this time to mobilize the Dragon Knight troops is really a matter of consideration from the perspective of practicality, and there is no deeper strategic intention-since the helicopter is not good, the dragon has become a Good option, at least this huge reptile doesn't have to worry about crashing or something like that.
If you want to understand the key, the rest will be easy to understand. As a courtier, just do what the emperor Your Majesty wants, and you don't need to think about so many twists and turns.
"Dragon Knight and magician are not restricted by the field. They can easily land in the woods or rugged mountains without worrying about any accidents." The Army Aviation Commander continued.
"The only drawback may be the load problem..." Bourgeois, nodded, agreed to the plan in principle.
"That's not a problem, use Osprey, or UH-60 helicopters to transport the supplies to the selected staging point, and then these Dragon Knights will transfer them to various villages... take less at a time, fly more Will the problem be solved next time?" The commander of Lu Hang has rich experience in this area and directly gave a solution.
With the Empire's powerful engineers, it is certainly not difficult to build several front-line airports. In the southern region, the field airports that have been built and the first-class roads that can be temporarily requisitioned are almost enough. .
"It makes sense! It seems that the Dragon Knight Legion of the Empire was transferred to the epidemic area, and it really wasn't here to join in the fun!" At this time, the chief of staff also felt that this method was not bad, and praised.
Bourgeois asked, "Where have they been?"
"At this time, it should have been over the epidemic area, right?" After a little calculation of the time, The commander of the army aviation, not very sure of the replied.
......
"Huh!" On a huge floating transport ship near the clouds, a lesser dragon spread its huge wings. It was like a carrier-based aircraft, jumping up on its own mothership, and then diving into the white clouds under its feet.
Then, another lesser dragon spread its wings, stretched out its long neck, roared towards the sky, then kicked its feet and rushed into the clouds.
Dragon Knight stepped on the pedals and did not wear armor. He was wearing a black short shirt, and was covered with a fitted leather armor. He looked extraordinary. You know, after being hit hard by the Alanhill Imperial Air Force and Air Defense Forces, this unit was once ignored.
Organized Dragon Knight units can only be seen during the Alanhill Empire Celebration. They are generally similar to the float team, and most of them perform in nature when they are on the stage for review.
It's like a cultural tradition, banning them makes magicians uncomfortable, but keeping them is pretty much useless on the battlefield.
Therefore, in addition to some special mounted police in some tourist cities, the entire Alanhill empire retains only one Dragon Knight Legion as a reserve, headquartered in the Velonsa District, and prepared 3000 people.
If it weren't for this plague, even Chris would have almost forgotten that among his tens of millions of troops, there is such an army whose existence is infinitely close to zero.
Now, this troop has been transferred to the southern region, and finally found its place in this plague disaster.
When the first giant dragon flapped its huge wings, hovered in the sky, slowly descended in height, then broke through the low bushes, smashed a short fence, and landed on the ground. In a village, the locals saw this magical creature on the noble murals for the first time.
This Fire Dragon, covered in scales, only appears locally in Myths and Legends. If it hadn't been for the previous demon invasion, the people here would have been terrified by the dragon's roar.
Fortunately, the people here are already elites who escaped from the mouth of the devil, and they are suffering from the plague, so they are not even surprised, just staring at this giant. The dragon stopped in front of him.
The tusks that are about the length of a dagger, and the unpleasant smell in the breath of giant beast, made the locals realize that a creature that is only a few meters away from them is absolutely Not a kind of good.
"Magic, big magician, my lord... We really don't have anything of value here. If you come here to find food, we have some dry bread..." An old man like the village chief , tremblingly leaned forward and spoke to Knight who turned over and jumped off the giant dragon.
