Chapter 456: Arriving at the William War Zone (2)
Hearing this old man say this, although Guo Yi's expression on his face remained unchanged, there was already a trace of gloom in his heart.
Although what the old man said is reasonable, but this is a battlefield, if everyone picks and chooses, then how can this war be fought?
Of course, Guo Yi would not be stupid enough to say these things, and he also understood that it was very difficult for this special operations legion composed of major families to truly integrate.
What Guo Yi can do now is to do his part.
Guo Yi set his eyes on the map of the William War Zone, at this time, the entire William War Zone had been occupied by the Noxus Legion.
The entire war situation began in the south of the Boke Sea and extended to the northernmost Siju River, and the entire front was 500 kilometers long.
During these 500 kilometers, the armies of the two sides were intertwined and fought inextricably.
Especially in the middle of the William Theater, the Second Marine Corps of the Noxian Empire, and the Fourth Army just formed by Ionia, the total number of troops invested by both sides has exceeded 200,000.
In the face of the Noxian Empire's step-by-step approach, although the Fourth Army has continuously closed its defensive line, it still paid a lot of casualties.
After all, they are still a newly formed army, and they cannot be compared with the Noxus Second Marine Corps in terms of combat effectiveness and equipment.
Of course, Ionia's side is not a soft persimmon to be manipulated.
Because five days earlier, the Fifth Army, with its 50,000 troops, had been drawn to the Sjuan River, adjacent to the Wilhelm theater. and the Fourth Army, against the Noxian Second Marine Corps, formed an angle of tension.
As long as the Fifth Army is fully equipped and has logistical assistance, it can launch an attack on the Noxus 2nd Marine Corps.
If the Noxian Second Marine Corps does not retreat at that time, I am afraid that their flank army will be captured by the Fifth Army.
It can be said that now both sides are rushing for time, and the Noxus side is fighting for the defeat of the Fourth Army before the Fifth Army is completed. The Fourth Army, on the other hand, was as long as possible.
When Guo Yi saw the entire war situation clearly under the explanation of the old man in Fez, his eyes were on the 500-kilometer defense line, constantly scanning and looking, and choosing the most suitable place for their Blood Flame team to play.
Although Guo Yi is very confident in the combat effectiveness of the Blood Flame Clan, he will not be stupid enough to really pull the Blood Flame Clan to the place where the confrontation is most intense.
If on the frontal battlefield, when encountering the enemy, there is an army of thousands of people at every turn, although the more than 100 people led by Guo Yi are all fourth-order martial sects, they will definitely be crushed, and there is not even a scum left.
The old man from Williamsburg also seemed to understand Guo Yi's thoughts, and he pointed to the left flank of the Fourth Army, near a place called Hatch Hill in the Fifth Army.
"It's a steep terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. However, in the past few days, the Second Marine Corps on the Noxus side suddenly sent two regiments of troops to attack here. ”
"The Fourth Army has not been able to mobilize troops for a while, and it has also asked our special operations regiment for help, I think with your numbers, it is a good place to go here for reinforcements."
"With your cultivation, coupled with the cooperation of the guards there, and the rugged terrain, I think it will not be a problem to hold on for ten days and a half months." After the old man from Fez City finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Guo Yi and waited for his reply.
Guo Yi only glanced at the map slightly, compared it with the strength of the two sides, and immediately nodded in agreement.
Since the Fourth Army has asked for assistance, as long as it is not clear that they will be sent to death, then Guo Yi has no reason to refuse.
Seeing Guo Yi agree, the old man in Fez City suddenly showed a smile on his face, this is the third time that this old man has told others about the situation in Hatch Mountain.
And the first-class forces who came the first two times, after hearing that place was the place that was focused on by the Noxus Marine Corps, immediately shook their heads and refused.
Now that Guo Yi agreed, no matter how Guo Yi and the others behaved, he could be regarded as being able to give the Ionian military an explanation.
After Guo Yi handed over these things, he immediately went to Hatch Mountain.
However, before leaving, the old man of Fez City kindly reminded, "When you go over there, if they have a bad attitude, bear with it first." ”
Guo Yi was slightly stunned when he heard the old man's words, but Guo Yi saw that he didn't mean to continue, so he didn't ask more, nodded and led the team away.
The distance between Marifort and Hatch Hill is 100 kilometers. Such a distance, if it is an ordinary army, it will take at least four or five days to walk.
However, Guo Yi ordered the Blood Flame Clan, which must arrive within half a day.
In order to achieve this goal, the marching speed of the Blood Flame Clans must reach more than 20 kilometers per hour.
It would be impossible for an ordinary army to maintain such a speed for five hours, and only this kind of team composed entirely of cultivators would be possible.
In fact, this is also the original intention of the formation of the special operations corps, with the strength of the members of the special operations corps, they can go to every war zone that needs rescue at a very fast speed.
It can even quickly form a force advantage in the local area and complete the strategic mode of breaking the surface with points.
However, it is obvious that the gap between reality and imagination is too far away, not to mention that the military wants to mobilize the special operations regiment to cooperate, and even the special operations regiment does not have a unified voice.
Of course, for these, it is not something that Guo Yi can change, he can only do everything he does as much as he can.
Guo Yi and the others arrived at the Second Division near Hatch Mountain in the afternoon.
At this time, in the barracks tent of the second division, Baddeley, as the division commander, and his staff officers were staring at the sand table in front of them, frowning.
His staff officers were constantly looking at the sand table in front of them, pacing anxiously, but no one could come up with a good solution.
"Division commander, if you really can't do it, just send the brothers of the third regiment over! We can't afford to lose this Hatch Mountain. Suddenly, a staff officer gritted his teeth and spoke.
"No, if the brothers of the three regiments are sent over, then the position of Oak Village will be dangerous." Division Commander Baddeley decisively vetoed.
The strategic location of Oak Village is no worse than that of Hutch Mountain, and it is only a village, which is more conducive to attacking, and if there are few troops, it will definitely be dangerous.
What's more, due to the sudden deterioration of the battle line on their side, there are still a small number of old and weak women and children in the Oak Village, and they have not had time to move.
Therefore, the 3rd Regiment stationed there was even more immobile.
Just when these people couldn't think of a good solution, suddenly, a guard ran in.
"Report to the division commander, the special operations corps has sent people to reinforce it." The guard, after giving a military salute, immediately reported loudly.
Hearing the guard's voice, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Baddeley, who is the head of the regiment, also slapped the table excitedly at this time, "His grandmother is a bear, and the special operations regiment has finally done a decent thing this time." ”
