Chapter 910 The Great War Begins
At 3:00 pm on December 2nd in the fourth year of Tianxuan, the naval forces led by Sylvia Ocean and Fuer Swanpu had already launched an attack on 18 ports or cities along the coast of the Jilihou Kingdom in advance.
Even though the purpose of the navy's operations at this stage was to contain the army of the Geely Marquis, destroy the coastal defense facilities of the Geely Marquis, and consume the expendable strategic materials of the Geely Marquis, the Geely Marquis was suddenly formally attacked by the fleet of the Yicheng Territory Navy. It is also panic throughout the country.
Before the start of the Main Continental War, Sylvia Osher had led the Yicheng Territorial Navy to carry out a more than three-month raid and harassment exercise on the coastline of the Jilihou Kingdom, so the expedition fleet is very familiar with it now.
The more than three months of training is not only to make the naval fighters familiar with this combat method, but also to achieve some practical results. None of the ships remained.
Based on the combat purpose of the navy, although Sylvia Ocean kept sending battle reports to the Wucheng intelligence distribution center twice a day in the morning and evening, the pace of naval battles was not fast at all, and it was impossible to gain too much substance in a short period of time. Sexual results.
However, it is also based on this kind of combat purpose. Apart from consuming some expendable strategic materials, the navy has no actual losses.
The coastal ports or cities of the Marquis of Jili, which have been ravaged by the Yicheng territorial navy for more than three months, have basically no ability to resist, and the coastal defense facilities only occasionally shot a few arrows to symbolize resistance at the beginning. Already lying flat, Sylvia Ocean and Fuer Swamp led the Yicheng Territory Navy's expedition fleet, which was as easy as training on a fixed target.
As for attracting the attention of the 1.5 million regular troops of the Auspicious Marquis, since there is no resistance at sea, the Geely Marquis naturally dare not send out the 1.5 million regular troops on land, otherwise the coast of the Geely Marquis is basically equivalent to attacking Sir Via Ocean and her naval expedition fleet opened the door.
After the evening of December 2nd in the fourth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao did not appear nervous because the navy's expedition fleet had already begun to fight. Of course, Qu Mao did not appear too relaxed. I feel very boring.
After arranging Liu Sansi to catch up with the troops of the army and the garrison to send soldiers advanced certificates, the original meaning of Qu Mao's stay in Wucheng was only to boost morale before the start of the war.
After the navy kicked off the war, Qu Mao could have returned to the Holy Land, but seeing Xinping's busy appearance, Qu Mao was too embarrassed to ask to return to the Holy Land.
Nothing more than nothing to do, Qu Mao had no choice but to silently set a time limit for himself, that is, after the news of the war between the army and the garrison came back to Wucheng, he would consider returning to the Holy Land.
Xinping's intelligence agency has reported that the Yicheng Territory has such a large military operation in Wucheng, and the surrounding neighboring countries have long been alarmed. The Marquis of Napoleon has gathered 250,000 regular troops on the border to build a defense system.
This information did not cause much shock to Qu Mao. A mere 250,000 third-tier fighters and fourth-tier fighters, even if there is terrain to use, there are at least 1 million troops facing the Yicheng Territory Army and Guards The expedition troops of high-ranking fighters must also be ruthlessly shredded like paper.
On December 3rd of the fourth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao spent the whole day in more than 20 military factories in Wucheng, watching the technicians in the military factories use lathes to produce arrow shafts. Qu Mao is one of the inventors of lathes , to put forward some suggestions for the application of the car factory to the mechanics who operate the lathe.
As for whether these suggestions are useful or not, Qu Mao’s idea is very simple, that is, to pass on the thinking on the application of lathes first, and the optimization and innovation of lathes cannot continue to be copied by oneself. After all, there is a lathe field in another world. Qu Mao didn't understand either. Perhaps the lathe technicians in the military factory would have some insights when they actually used the lathe. In this case, the optimization of the lathe is the closest to the actual needs.
Qu Mao said in astonishment: "Damn it! Xinping, today is much earlier than usual. Did the army and garrison arrive at the border of the Marquis of Napoleon? Or did Zhao Pan and the others directly lead the troops to break through the border of the Marquis of Napoleon?" The border defense of the 250,000 regular army?
According to my understanding of the itinerary of the army and the garrison, the army and the garrison should not arrive at the border of Napoleon until noon today. "
Xinping said: "My lord, stimulated by the intelligence of the navy's attack, Master Zhao Pan and Master Zhang Da accelerated their marching speed, and the army and garrison troops arrived at the southeast border of Napoleon at 3:00 this morning.
According to Mr. Zhao Pan’s letter from Feige, the army plans to launch a frontal attack on the border defense troops of the Marquis of Napoleon at 7 o’clock this morning. The 250,000 army is not expected to stop our army from going out for too long. "
Qu Mao took out his pocket watch, looked at it, and said, "It's less than 25 minutes before Zhao Pan plans to launch an attack. It's impossible for the 250,000 regular army to stop Zhao Pan and Zhang Da's 1.5 million army. We wait for the army to attack." And the good news for the Garrison is.
According to my understanding of Zhao Pan, maybe he will launch a battle in advance like Sylvia. "
Xinping nodded and said, "Yes, my lord!
Subordinates think the same way, after all, Mr. Zhao Pan can flexibly adopt countermeasures according to the strength of the enemy and our troops.
In addition, Mr. Zhao Pan also thanked you for providing the fighter advanced certificate in the Feige biography sent back, and Mr. Zhao Pan has notified the core heroes of the army that a total of more than 7,000 fighter advanced certificates are used as battlefield incentives. Morale was very high…”
"Oh?" Qu Mao was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "How come there are only more than 7,000 copies? Shouldn't it be 8,000?"
Xinping smiled and said: "My lord, this is what was written in the letter sent back by Mr. Zhao Pan. I am afraid that Mr. Zhao Pan gave all the overlapping fighter advanced certificates to Mr. Zhang Da.
After all, everyone felt that the presence of the Guard was not strong, and Mr. Zhang Da seemed too low-key, and his subordinates heard that Mr. Zhao Pan and Mr. Zhang Da had a good personal relationship. "
Qu Mao nodded, and said: "The two of them have a good personal relationship, and they used to sleep in the same room.
It seems that there is no need for the two of us to stay in Wucheng any longer. Let's go back to the holy place of Yi Island. "
Xinping said: "Master, we have to wait for another day or two. Master Liu Sansi is on his way back to Wucheng. We will return together when he returns."
Qu Mao nodded and said: "That's fine, we can go back after the war gradually kicks off."
