The Battle of Georgetown that Shivano mentioned was a time when the original Griffin Empire was still a kingdom, and at that time the Turkic Empire was at its most glorious and it would be the time when it immediately fell into the abyss - a million Turkic cavalry army rode on the largest fleet in the history of the King Continent and landed in the middle of the Central Continent, where all the powerful forces of the King Continent wanted to fight, and the Battle of George Town took place on Wednesday of the third week when the Turkic army landed on the King Continent.

At that time, the Turkic army relied on the army configuration of pure cavalry troops to capture 1/6 of the territory of the central region of the king continent when the countries of the king continent had not yet reacted, and the defense capabilities of all the coastal lines of the king continent were in the weakest stage. The main roads connecting the various areas of the raiding area are also the coastal areas that the Turkic Empire first invaded: not to mention those important cities, as for the roads, the most basic and important facilities for the cavalry army of the Turkic Empire to quickly move in the various regions, and the landing area is the administrative center of the Turkic Empire connecting the central region of the Central Continent and the western region of the Central Continent - the Turkic Imperial City (and now the dense forest area of the Western Regions of the Central Continent inhabited by the bear monster clan), but it is worth mentioning here, At that time, the millions of armies that entered the middle of the Middle Continent were all gathered together, and those who so-called guarding the cities, coastal cities and roads were just slave soldiers belonging to the army of the great Turkic Empire.

Although the Great Turkic Empire developed very well in the early stage, with the passage of time, when all the countries in the Central Region of the King Continent reacted, the countries of the King Continent broke out with a counterattack ability that even the Great Turkic Empire was very frightened: It is no wonder, after all, the predecessors of the Central Continent and the Central Region were the central area of the Human Alliance, and here are all the essence of the Human Alliance. Although after the human alliance collapsed due to internal and external troubles, it was divided up by nearly a hundred large and small forces, but when these countries gathered, didn't these essences be gathered again to a certain extent? On the other hand, on the side of the Turkic Empire, the predecessor of the Turkic clan was just a famous cavalry general in the Human Alliance, relying on the luck and cohesion of the sky to create a strong empire in a short period of time.

So something that was almost unimaginable to the Turkic Empire happened: as the time of the Turkic Empire's invasion of the Central Continent reached the third week, the countries of the Central Continent almost all abandoned their previous grievances in a short period of time. In a short period of time, nearly half of the countries have been condensed into a monolith, and under the leadership of a prestige and talented general, the number of people equal to the Turkic Empire was raised in an instant, although the arms are very mixed, but the combat effectiveness of small warbands and individual combat effectiveness, including equipment, can completely destroy the army of any kind of army of the Turkic Empire, and the most important thing is that the countries in the Central Continent generally do not choose to destroy infrastructure in the battle (every inch of land in the Central Continent is extremely fertile, and it can almost be regarded as an inch of land, The powerful bosses of various countries will not be ruthless to let the soldiers destroy their own golden lands or be favored by themselves). Therefore, when the war began, the biggest advantage of the Central Continent countries over the great Turkic empires was. They have an extremely well-developed logistics line.

Furthermore. The countries in the middle of the Central Continent also use their own attributes of the terrain, of course, the most important thing is those potential allies who were invaded by the Turkic Empire and turned into slaves (the purpose of the Great Turkic Empire at that time was that non-Turkic people were their own slaves, so the Turkic Empire was already in a semi-paralyzed state before attacking the Central Continent, as for why the Turkic Empire chose to attack the Central Continent at such a moment, the reason is because the contradictions within the Turkic Empire have been irreconcilable, The only solution now is to use external forces to exert pressure on internal forces. And the most effective way is to start a war, a big war: a war can not only freeze internal problems temporarily, but most importantly, in a chaotic war, some hidden dangers can be removed, and the acquisition of territory can also suppress some hidden dangers. In addition, the deterrent effect brought by the war to the country can also have some effects, of course, from the results, the calculation of the Turkic Empire is wrong, and the hidden dangers within the Turkic Empire also make the Turkic Empire collapse when the original Griffin Empire counterattacked and landed in the Western Regions of the Central Continent, just capturing the Vadano Island in the coastal area, if it were not for the rise of the Celestial Dragon Empire at that time, the territory of the original Griffin Empire would have expanded to the Western Regions of the Central Continent)

Under such circumstances, the army of the Great Turkic Empire was soon besieged on 3 sides by the million-strong army of the Central Continent countries that counterattacked, and its retreat was almost cut off by those rebellious slaves, and the most important thing was that the area where the Great Turkic Empire was located at that time was a mixed terrain of dense forest areas and hilly areas plus farmland areas, which was very unfavorable for the Great Turkic Empire with pure cavalry troops (at that time, the attack time of the Great Turkic Empire was just after the spring farming season, and the farmland was full of renovated soil, which was easy for the horse's hooves to sink in, So at this time, the farmland area was a dangerous place for the Turkic Empire, and by the way, in the Battle of Agincourt, which made the longbow troops world-famous between England and France, the longbow troops relied on a small number of longbow troops to defeat the French heavy cavalry with stakes and high ground in front of the farmland area), in addition, the soldiers in the army of the Turkic Empire at that time were all soldiers who fought for several weeks in a row, and they were more or less wounded, or they were also the kind of people who were tired and vomited blood, The Turkic soldiers in such a state could not fight with the soldiers of the Central Continent and the Central Regions who were in good condition, so the situation of the Turkic army at that time could be said to be extremely unfavorable.

But under such circumstances, the war that seemed to be inevitable defeat was turned into victory by relying on the army formed by the pure cavalry troops against the large army formed by the countries of the Central Continent under an extremely crazy decision of the Turkic king, the Battle of Georgetown.

Under the leadership of the Turkic king, the light cavalry troops of the Turkic side relied on the fighting method of fighting and retreating, and while slowly retreating backwards, they relied on the forests they passed through on the way to hide batch after batch of Turkic light cavalry, and left after leaving with the spearhead of millions of lions in the Middle Continent. Maybe it's because of the existence of the Turkic king, or because the Turkic king is letting these Turkic light cavalry evacuate in small teams without interruption, so the troops composed of the countries in the Central Continent who were overwhelmed by the fruits of victory did not search those dense forests, of course, the main reason is because the Turkic king, who was extremely ruthless at the critical moment, actually let all the heavy cavalry, including the heavy archers, kill his war horses, and abandon the corpses of these war horses on the way with the baggage. So that the Central Continent side did not have any doubts about the dwindling number of the Turkic army. Eventually, when all the heavy cavalry of the Turkic Empire arrived at Georgetown, all the Turkic light cavalry had already withdrawn and began to assemble in the rear of the armies of the Central Continent.

Lions VS Golden Phoenix

At this time, the elite troops of the Turkic army, which had lost all their mounts and a large number of baggage, also entered the final withdrawal point of this army under the leadership of the Turkic king, which was also the point of their counterattack - Georgetown: The area around Georgetown was very flat, but it was not easy for cavalry troops to fight on it. The reason is simple, because Georgetown itself is a grain production base, so the land around Georgetown is extremely soft fields left after spring ploughing. Of course, it is precisely because of this terrain full of fields that the 100,000 elite foot of the Turkic army were able to withstand the crazy attack of millions of lions from the countries of the Central Continent for nearly half a month.

Georgetown is an unnamed town built on the mountainside, surrounded by flat fields, before that it was just a small and famous grain production base in the middle of the Middle Continent, and the reason why it was chosen by the Turkic army was purely due to its luck and a little peculiarity: although it was a town established on the middle of the mountainside. However, due to the fact that the surrounding area is fertile land, the mountain attached to Georgetown is also a relatively flat mountain in terms of terrain. So George Town is a town though. However, in terms of the scale of the building, it has reached the size of a small city or even a medium-sized city, which makes Georgetown fully capable of accommodating the settlement of less than 100,000 Turkic warriors; Secondly, the hill on which Georgetown is located is generally similar to the Crown, because Georgetown is built on a basin within the mountain, and is surrounded by hills that protrude slightly upward, albeit very low. It can almost be said that it was ignored by the counterweight trebuchet, but don't forget that there was no counterweight trebuchet as a mid-to-late medieval war weapon before the previous years, and even at that time, the so-called torsion trebuchet could be regarded as a man-made war machine in the hands of the major powers. At that time, the only weapons of war that could be used by the world were early ballistae with the ability to fire flat.

Therefore, due to the natural terrain of Georgetown, the war equipment of the Central Continent and the Central Regions of the Central Continent is considered to be abandoned in Georgetown, and the second thing that is abolished is the cavalry troops and hoplite troops of the Central Continent and the Central Regions: although they have lost the war horses under their crotch, the Turkic warriors are still good in terms of walking and moving, after all, these Turkic soldiers have a stronger physique than ordinary people, and the Turkic warriors are not lame, as for the O-shaped legs that those Turkic warriors have are generally not very influential, Moreover, the archery skills of the most important Turkic warriors were not lost after dismounting, and although the Turkic king had ordered his men to abandon the useless baggage, even the seriously wounded in the army, the children and the elderly who accompanied them, etc., he did not abandon the extremely sharp arrows that had been polished one by one. Now the Turkic army has 100,000 troops that can continue to pour arrows at the enemy, while the countries of the Central Continent have many heavy troops that will sink their horses' hooves or iron boots into the farmland in the process of advancing because of their own heavy size.

Although the archers of the Turkic archers are worse than the archers of the Great Empire who have been cultivated since childhood, in fact, they are not much worse, they just can't do the more exaggerated archery skills of the longbow troops of the Great Empire that say that shooting the left eyeball will never hit the left eyelid, but as a great Turkic empire that dominates the continent with riding and archery, when its riding and archery skills are transformed into archery, its archery ability has not lost anything at all. On the contrary, because the shooting method changed from the previous sports shooting to static shooting, the hit rate of the Turkic warriors was greatly improved, and in this case, the armies of the Central Continent and the Central Regions that launched one attack after another towards Georgetown finally did not even touch the outer wooden walls of Georgetown, and were shot back again and again by the rain of arrows that flew out in a parabolic way from Georgetown.

Under the influence of various factors, the best opportunity to capture Georgetown was lost. The cavalry units of the hundreds of thousands of Turkic armies located in the rear of the armies of the Central Continent countries completed the first merger after being dismantled, and according to the instructions left to them by the early Turkic kings, they formed a larger encirclement around the armies of the Central Continent countries, and at the same time cut off the logistical supply lines of the Central Continent countries on the weekend of the second week of the siege of Georgetown, they began to use the Turkic light cavalry to erode the million-strong army united by the Central Continent countries day and night.

Although the pure cavalry troops of the Great Turkic Empire are composed of warriors in many steppe tribes, because the predecessor of the Great Turkic Empire is the power of a cavalry general of the Human Alliance, compared with the warriors of the steppe tribes in the original world, the Turkic warriors of the Great Turkic Empire not only have the fierce fighting methods of the steppe people, but also have the unified discipline of the ordinary human imperial army, which is the reason why the Great Turkic Empire is better than the Mongolian Empire in the original world after its establishment. And this can be seen from the equipment of the Turkic light cavalry: although it is light cavalry, but as a branch of the Turkic army, the Turkic light cavalry is not only the most complete military system in the Turkic cavalry troops, but also the most well-equipped in the Turkic army that year: in terms of weapons, the Turkic light cavalry is equipped with two sabers that must be made by blacksmiths above the ordinary level and a composite bow made of animal tendons. Plus 4 pots of iron arrows, and in terms of armor. Except for a layer of leather armor. The Turkic light cavalry also had to wear leather clothing, hats, and other clothing suitable for all weather conditions, and the Turkic light cavalry at the officer level was most likely equipped with the earliest iron hoop armor at that time to strengthen their defenses; At the end, the war horses equipped by the Turkic light cavalry are among the best Turkic horses in the Turkic Empire, and they are also the predecessor of the Kirin Horse in the Western Regions of the Central Continent.

Faced with an army of more than 500,000 Turkic light cavalry. Any unit other than the War Behemoth will have a headache, after all, the light cavalry is like a loach, and anyone who sees it will have a headache, especially if they have some heavy cavalry units and heavy infantry units that do not move fast. In such a situation, with the passage of time, the powerful millions of armies of the countries in the middle of the Central Continent almost every day had to face the situation of thousands of soldiers being killed and wounded by arrows, and were finally worn to death by the light cavalry troops of the Turkic Empire, resulting in the final victory of the Turkic Empire..........

"Sivano, herald, what the two of you mean is that the reason why the sun never sets makes such a gap is actually to attract the attention of our troops, so that our army forces can fight to the death on the side where the sun never sets, and then the sun does not set will be able to form an even greater encirclement on the periphery of the ocean, and wipe out all of our five fleets, including which land forces, are here, right?" When the two of them nodded, Bruno pondered for a while and said: "But have you ever thought about what the Sunset Fleet has and what ability it has to get their two fleets out of the waters around the Lasman Islands and Enoch Islands, don't forget that the five fleets in our hands have now monitored all their two fleets, do you think those dozens of disappeared Hawk assault ships can do something about themselves?" ”

"Isn't there any Xiyi Fleet and North Sea Fleet in the Great Empire?" Shivano thought for a moment and said, "What if they send these two fleets here, and these two fleets are equipped with the same weapons that the sun never sets on the fleet?" ”

"I can tell you very clearly that this is not possible." Bruno said confidently: "In fact, before this, the intelligence department of our Holy Light Great Empire had already conducted a detailed understanding of the situation of these two fleets, and made some situations so that these two fleets had no time to take care of the King's Inland Sea. Among them, according to the intelligence, the most threatening is the Xiyi fleet, because the warships of the Xiyi fleet are also said to be equipped with the so-called artillery and powerful crossbows to defend the city, but because this fleet has been loaned to the Crescent Moon Empire by the Sunset Empire until recently, the so-called Xiyi warship is higher in threat than the standard warships of the Sunset Empire, but the movement speed is extremely slow, There are even some ships that move at the same speed as our Great Empire of Divine Light's Sea-Fixer ships. Therefore, these Xiyi warships are destined to not be able to engage the fleet of our Divine Bright Empire in a short period of time, as for the regular fleet of the Sunset that has not been sent to the King's Inland Sea before, I think as long as the intelligence department on the side of the Sunset is not stupid, he should know the relationship between our Divine Light Empire and some coastal forces of the King's Continent, if he transfers the King's Continent's offshore defense fleet such as the North Sea Fleet to the King's Inland Sea, then the sun will not set and he will face the situation of the coastal defense line being invaded. ”

"Then Lord Bruno, do you think that the army that never sets the sun will deliberately vacate this defensive vacuum for us, do you really think that this matter was caused by the side that the sun never sets until now is not aware of it?" The herald said suspiciously. In this regard, Bruno, after looking at the strategic map on the table, suddenly asked the herald, "Herald, I have a question for you. Do you know when the Great Empire began to build the Lower Maginot Line? ”

"At the earliest, the construction of the Bona Alliance will not begin until last year, when the sun never sets on the Great Empire." The herald thought for a moment and said, "According to common sense, if you want to start building a defensive line, you must inspect the construction area before that, otherwise if you build it without inspection, the built defensive line will definitely have great flaws. After all, the larger the defensive line, the more construction detachments and different lead builders will be built, if the lead builder has not communicated with other lead builders before. When different design concepts intersect, there is bound to be a gap. ”

"So that's what it is. The time for the Great Empire to start building the Maginot Line is only one and a half years at most, so I would like to ask everyone present, do you think that a giant coastal defense line that has such a situation in the external propaganda can really build this giant defense line in a short period of time even if the Sun Never Sets side has enough materials and all the manpower in the Western Regions of the Central Continent? ”

"Your Excellency, you mean .........?"

"In my personal opinion. This is very likely to be a trick made by the side on which the sun never sets, and the fundamental reason for this trick is because the side that does not set on the sun has not completely built the line of defense of the lower Maginot now, and there are even many places where the foundation is just laid and there is no so-called giant wall. In such a situation, they will definitely not let our army land from any gap until these defensive belts are completed, so there are two fleets that never set up a sea defense line near the Lasman Islands and the Enoch Islands, and then deliberately leave a gap that can allow our army to break through, but in fact, this gap is indeed the most terrifying area of the defense capability of the Maginot side at present, if we really go at the pace left to us by the early day not to fall side, then even if we do not hit the head and break the bloodstreamEven if our army breaks through the most impregnable defensive strip of the Lower Maginot Line, our army will be wiped out by the sunset reserve army that counterattacks in the rear. ”

"In other words, the reason why the sun never sets aside a blank area for us is not to kill the fleet that transports our Divine Light Great Empire Army in this area, but to allow our army troops to attack from here, and be delayed by this gap that seems to be the best to break through, so that this nominal gap can become a huge grinding plate, and continue to consume the strength of our Holy Great Empire." Shivano gasped and said, "Good fellows, they can come up with this method to deal with the Confusing Side, so that we don't notice the rest of the weak areas of the Lower Maginot Line. ”

"Actually, even if you notice it, it's useless." After pondering for a moment, Bruno said with a wry smile: "According to the news from the Maginot Line before, now when our attacking troops on the Maginot Line are about to arrive at the second guard, they have encountered a strange miniature warship (the reason why this kind of warship is said to be very small is because the size of this miniature warship is only the size of a thousand fireships, of course, it can also be said that this kind of warship is a thousand fireships, but these thousand fireships are not equipped with paddle wheels, However, as the most important Greek fire jet device for a thousand fire ships, this kind of small warship also has it), although this strange small warship is small, it is a great threat to the warship, because these warships have the kind of Greek fire jet device that can shoot Greek fire under the battleship of the Great Empire, although at present, we can only confirm that this kind of warship appears in the Upper Maginot Line and the Sunset Xiyi fleet, but no one can guarantee that this thing will not appear on the side of the Lower Maginot Line, Therefore, if we choose to let those battleships that break through the blank area of the defense line attack other areas of the Maginot Line, it is very likely that we will encounter this kind of small warship that is afraid of the Holy Light ships, and even those battleships that are caught by us will counterattack. ”

"So what are we going to do?" Shivano said with an ugly face: "This will not work, and that will not work, do we really have to go on so passively according to the steps set by the early future?" ”

"Nope! Of course not! Bruno said with a serious face: "I've been thinking before, since the Maginot Line is as difficult to break through as a steel plate guarded by the sunset, then why should we let our troops attack the Maginot Line to attack the Western Regions of the Central Continent?" Can't we take a detour? Don't forget, the number of warships on this side of our Divine Light Empire is more than twice as many as on the side where the sun never sets! ”

"Your Excellency, what do you mean by that?" Shivano's eyes lit up: "Have you already thought of a way to break the current deadlock?" ”

"It's not a good idea, I just want everyone to think about it." Bruno waved his hand and said, "I just want to say that if we can't break through the Maginot Line head-on, then why don't we try to destroy the Maginot Line from the flank?" For example, a detour from the southern region of the Central Continent or something.........." (to be continued......
