Chapter 833: Red Sand
After receiving the news that the city of Canaan had been captured by Silver Ash, the Southern Coalition Army did not hesitate, and General Omon directly ordered the whole army to enter the Red Sand Plain and charge towards the whole army in the north.
However, the Central Army, which arrived from the west, was equally decisive.
Prince Witte, commander-in-chief of the Central Army, directly abandoned the city of Canaan, and the whole army moved eastward at high speed, striving to intercept the southern coalition forces in the Hongsha Plain.
Once upon a time, the Central Army that broke into the south was the sword of the Empire, and they chased the infected within their borders.
Now, the Southern Military Region has united its allies from many countries to replace the offensive and defensive with the Central Army.
....
Red Sand Plains.
It is a vast area located in the south-east direction.
Some people say that this area was once subjected to a natural disaster hundreds of years ago, so that until now, there is still no vegetation.
It is also said that the sand grains of the Red Sand Plain have been melted by high temperatures, which is not caused by natural disasters at all, but is the remnant of some unknown weapon of mass destruction swept by ancient times.
Of course, these are the after-dinner conversations of ordinary people, and no one knows what happened here.
Whether it was hundreds of years ago or tens of thousands of years ago, anything without any evidence was a fallacy that could not be found anywhere.
And what is about to play out on this plain at this moment is the real history.
....
Terra Calendar 1094 in the depths of winter.
The Red Sand Plain south of Victoria was the scene of the famous battle that later became known as the Battle of the Red Sands.
A few years later, a certain historian wrote this in his book.
[The Battle of the Red Sands is a rare large-scale war in the history of Terra, some people say that history is written by the victors, there is no real winner in the war, as long as the war starts, what is lost will never come back, but I personally feel that there are some things that are worth exchanging with sacrifices, which has nothing to do with justice or not, and has nothing to do with the gains and losses of interests, maybe no one could understand this sentence at the time, but, now please look at our homeland, can you understand it. 】
....
....
Red Sand Plains.
The sky was white, and when the morning breeze blew on the cheeks of every soldier, everyone smelled death in the air.
General Ormon walked out of the command headquarters and climbed onto the roof of a military truck.
In the line of sight, at the end of the plain, there was a sea of black oppressive people, and the main force of the Central Army, which exceeded 500,000, still intercepted them before they reached the junction of the north and south.
The two armies looked at each other, and the dead silence before the storm was all over the place, and the air seemed to tremble uneasily.
The flags of both sides fluttered in the wind in the positions.
The Southern Military Region Division is famous, and they are still fighting for the royal blood of the Aslan clan, so the military flag is still a mighty lion.
However, unlike the red and blue background of the Central Army, the military flag of the Southern Military Region has a black background.
....
The wind of the wilderness blew up the red sand, and every soldier clenched their weapons and held their breath.
At this moment, the king in their minds was with them, and none of them showed a look of flinching, and in a war of this scale, even if the first charge would be shattered, they were still determined.
General Ormon's hair has turned gray, but his burly figure still shows that he was a fierce general when he was young.
"Huh!" Read a book
Standing on the roof of the truck, he drew his saber and his powerful voice resounded through the sky.
"Soldiers, standing in our way is the Central Army, which is known as the strongest division of the Empire, oh, whether it is the weakest or the strongest, it no longer makes sense to me, because, they are destroying our country. It is they who turn the entire south into a battlefield, they are the ones who ruthlessly expel the infected, the farmers will still be grateful to the cattle who have been cultivated, but the empire will take revenge for this, regardless of human morality, there is no bottom line of humanity, in this regard, our king stood up, she did not choose to escape after surviving from the pursuit of the empire, but bravely launched a resistance, soldiers, for the sake of the loving king in our hearts, let us become the sword of the king, the husband is not afraid of life and death, the rotten empire will be overthrown by us! ”
"Ah!!h
General Ormon's pre-war mobilization was full of emotion, and his old face looked at death as if he were at home.
Infected by his emotions, hundreds of thousands of soldiers raised their weapons high, and the sound of battle cries resounded through the Red Sand Plain.
With the waving of his saber, General Ormon pointed straight at the enemy.
"Soldiers, give your life for Queen Vina, for the rebirth of Victoria, and sacrifice your soul, our blood will surely wash away the mark of decay, and our descendants will live in a new country!"
A ray of sunlight streamed through the horizon, and a dazzling hue reflected off General Ormon's saber.
Like a symbol, the officers and men of the whole army seemed to feel the divine breath at this moment, and for them, the meaning of this war has long exceeded life and death.
Everyone's eyes were burning with fierce fighting intent, and the aura of slaughter permeated the whole army.
General Ormon greeted the rising sun and roared loudly.
"Long live Queen Vena, Victorian Empire, forever!"
The morning sun bathed the faces of every soldier, and everyone roared with all their might.
"Long live Queen Vena, Victorian Empire, forever!"
.....
The Red Sand Plain, which had been silent for several years, was instantly broken by the hustle and bustle, and at the same time, there was also a roar of high fighting spirit from the camp of the Central Army in the distance.
Their slogans were likewise fighting for the Victorian Empire.
At different times, one side is loyal to the past and the other side believes in the future.
....
For the generals in command, this kind of million-man battle is rare in a lifetime, and the soldiers obey one military order after another, even if they know that they are sent to death, they are willing to believe that their death is meaningful.
As commanders, they don't want to disappoint any of the soldiers who trust them, and in the temporary command, both sides are constantly adjusting their tactics under intense pressure.
On the plain, the four integrated divisions and regiments of the Southern Military Region, as the main force of the charge, had rushed out in the face of death without hesitation.
The precious teams of spells and crossbows sat in vehicles, getting as close as possible to range under heavy cover, while powerful insertion points on the flanks were also contested.
The confrontation on the frontal battlefield is already visible to the naked eye, and the distance between the two armies is gradually shortening.
...
At 500 meters, you can already see the smoke and dust raised in the enemy formation.
At 200 meters, the deafening roar made the eardrums tremble.
50 meters, the cold light of the blade, the crimson of the tip of the gun, has come into view, and the same clearly visible, there are also faces that look at death as home.
"Ah!!!h
On the plain, two torrents of steel collided in an instant, and seventy percent of the soldiers in the front row had already lost their lives in the first place.
The resolute back in front of him falls, and the people behind him will immediately rise up.
The chaotic and tragic death match began.
