Chapter 1535: 1522. Battle plan
Chapter 1535 1522. Battle plan
The heavy armored infantry regiment of the West Route Army has been stationed in the Dak Valley, indeed because Suldak did not issue an expedition order.
The Moyunling Highland is surrounded by mountains on all sides, but the center of the whole highland is flat, and there are no criss-crossing mountains. The only North Senland Mountain Range looks extremely gentle, like a pile of hills stretching for hundreds of kilometers. There are not many rivers on the ground, almost all of which are small rivers formed by the melting of surrounding snow mountains and glaciers, and an inner lake is formed in the Moyunling Highlands.
Most of the vegetation on the highlands are low shrubs and bitter-leaved grasses that are resistant to cold and drought. This place is simply a natural pasture.
The magician reconnaissance team of the West Route Army spent several months flying around on a magic scorpion almost every day, exploring the entire terrain of the Moyunling Highland.
The magicians have almost flown over the entire highland. After their investigation, Suerdak obtained the most detailed map of the Moyunling Highland. This map includes the distribution of resources in the Moyunling Highland mine, mountains, rivers The trend of the lake, the various stations of the evil ghost army, etc.
Suldak let the infantry regiment of the West Route Army stay in the Dak Valley. The biggest reason is that the Moyunling Highland is too flat.
These ghost warriors run no slower than war horses. On such a flat and open battlefield, the only arms of the empire that can contend with the ghost warriors head-on are the heavy cavalry and the constructed knights.
The province of Bena is the hometown of swordsmen in the Grimm Empire. Most noble lords don't like to form knights, so the heavy cavalry is particularly important when fighting against the ghost army. The Bena in the hands of Duke Newman The Legion has a large number of heavy cavalry regiments.
In fact, this is also the main reason why the evil ghost army on Moyunling has never captured the forest camp.
In flat places like the Great Meadow or the Moyunling Highlands, the heavy cavalry regiment is stronger than the ghost army. If it is in a mountainous area where it is impossible to charge, the heavy cavalry regiment will be suppressed by the ghost army.
This is also the reason why the Bena Legion has not been able to capture this valley at the southern foot of Moyunling for so long.
If Suldak had a powerful heavy cavalry regiment in his hands, then as early as two months ago, Suldak would have led the heavy cavalry straight into the battlefield on the Moyunling Highlands.
However, the main arm of the West Route Army is heavy armored infantry. Once these heavy armored infantry enter the Moyunling Highlands, they will be at an absolute disadvantage when facing the evil ghost army.
It can’t be that every battle happens to be at night…
Suldak wants to find some suitable battlefields for heavy armored infantry to fight, or areas near valleys and rivers. Only by using the special terrain on the high ground can the heavy armored infantry regiment fight against the evil ghost army.
Of course, he originally wanted to borrow a few heavy cavalry regiments from Duke Newman, so that he could fight on the high ground at will. It’s just that the Bena Legion has fought in the Warsaw plane for eight years, and now it has finally captured Kornberg County. The plane battlefield has achieved a phased victory. Most of the soldiers are eager to return home. When Dak opened his mouth, a group of heavy cavalry regiments had already returned to the Roland Continent in the form of garrisoning in turn.
The remaining heavy cavalry regiments are still driving out the evil spirits along the Kampato River...
Before the magician reconnaissance team explored the Moyunling highland, Suldak began to formulate a highland battle plan, and this battle plan has been continuously improved...
Now there are four routes that can be determined to send troops all the way to Mount Horsens.
The first road, which is also the optimal marching route in Suldak's entire battle plan, is to follow the south bank of the largest river from the southwest bank of the inner lake to the highland, and advance all the way west. Suldak intends to use the ghost warriors He is not good at swimming, and if he wants to build some boats in the inner lake, the only troublesome thing is to go out to the mountains at the southern foot of Moyunling to transport large timber to the high ground.
Because of the Battle of Buruin River as a reference, Suldak believes that the West Route Army and the Evil Army can have more advantages in fighting by the river.
The second road is all the way west from the North Senland Mountains. This marching route is the shortest among the four routes. However, the heavy armored infantry regiment needs to rely on the ant cavalry regiment to maintain its combat advantage in this mountainous area. The mountains may not be a hindrance to the army of evil spirits.
The third road goes from the foot of the mountains on the South Road, around the edge of the mountains for hundreds of kilometers, to Horsens.
The fourth marching route was prepared by Suldak for the aboriginal warriors of the Aegrod tribe. It was to march westward along the edge of the northern foothills, forming a north-south encirclement with the West Route Army, and completely wiped out the evil spirits. The Legion was eradicated from the Moyunling Highlands.
Suldak is going to divide the West Route Army and the Aigrod Tribal Alliance Army into four groups, and at the same time march towards Horsens on the west side of the highland, but this battle plan has been delayed due to the arrival of reinforcements from Handanar City.
Now the reinforcements from Handanaer City can't wait to enter the Moyunling Highland battlefield. Although it disrupted Suldak's battle deployment, it can also be regarded as helping Suldak to test the combat effectiveness of those evil spirits on the highland.
Suldak even planned to assign a westward route to the reinforcements in Handanal City, but thinking that they might not have this plan at all, Marquis Heller didn't mention this when he left.
In addition, he didn't want to have too much contact with the reinforcements in Handanal City. Their heavy armored infantry regiment was equipped with excellent weapons and horses, but he still thought too much if he wanted to defeat the evil spirits with just these.
He didn't want to be questioned by the noble lords in Handanal City when the reinforcements were defeated.
As for how the Marquis Valentine Heller led the reinforcements into the highlands, that was his duty as a commander. He naturally knew the saying 'War is risky, and you need to be cautious when marching'.
At present, the only legions in the West Route Army that can enter the central area of the Moyunling Highlands are the Constructed Knights and the Ant Cavalry. It will also be violently counterattacked by the evil ghost army.
Actually, this is not a conspiracy specifically aimed at the reinforcements of Handanal City. I hope that the reinforcements of Handanal City can withstand the counterattack of the evil ghost army.
Suldak felt that the Constructed Knights and Ant Cavalry were not strong enough, so he was still contacting some large adventure groups when he returned to Dak Valley this time.
The reason for finding them is not to organize them together and form a motley army to fight on the battlefield.
These adventure groups enter the Moyunling highlands in units of combat squads to exert their maximum combat power, and the combined combat power is even inferior to the heavy armored infantry regiment.
Suldak hopes to organize the magicians in the various adventure groups to form a large wave of magician combat groups, and attack the evil ghost army that cannot fight in the air.
The Evil Ghost Legion has some flying troops, but the number is smaller than that of the Evil Ghost General, and it has not been able to form a scale...
