Alien Empire Total War

(The previous chapter has been revised)

As the sound of gunfire intensified in the distance, the officers and soldiers of the 3rd Brigade of the 6th Division also gradually discovered this situation. Whether they were officers or soldiers, their faces showed worried expressions.

"Brigade Commander, we should enter Ankerton City as soon as possible to support the generals."

In the army formation of the third brigade, the officers surrounded the brigade commander Erich Pope. They talked a lot, and their suggestions were also to enter the city to support the friendly army, but they all knew that as long as the cavalry division opposite If the threat is not removed, they will always be blocked here.

The artillery that was previously unloaded and erected was still placed in front of our army, threatening the enemy cavalry and making them dare not approach easily. Although the third brigade only had eight poor artillery pieces, it still stunned the enemy and made them Don't dare to approach.

The mission of the 1st Cavalry Division was only to prevent and delay the entry of the enemy's 6th Division into the city. There was no need for them to charge the line of infantry in formation. Now there were some small flaws in the mission that had already made them very angry. Necessary battle damage, blame from the General Staff may be issued at any time.

Looking at the enemy cavalry stuck in the distance on their way to the city, Brigade Commander Pop gritted his teeth and said, "I don't think so, but you should all be well aware that the one deployed on the opposite side is fast The cavalry with the same number as our army, it is cavalry! If we continue to advance, without the threat of artillery, what do you think the enemy will do?"

"I don't dare to gamble on the lives of more than 3,000 soldiers in the entire third brigade, and I'll tell you the truth, just from the sound of cannons coming from the city, I can infer that the rebels are advancing and the National Assembly has failed. It's also a matter of time."

"What do you mean?" an officer asked unwillingly.

"Wait, wait until the noble rebels win, and when those congressmen are arrested and imprisoned, this civil war will end." The brigade commander sighed and said.

He was already a brigade commander before the Great Revolution. Unlike those young and vigorous officers, he was not very interested in attacking—what's the use of fighting so fiercely in a civil war, it is better to fight foreign enemies.

And he is also very clear in his heart that the key to the end of this civil war is the battle in Ankerton. As long as the rebels can occupy the capital and force the National Assembly to surrender, the troops in various places will be lifted from the state of war and returned to their original locations.

This is also the consensus of everyone. Except that the army in the Ankerton region is still working hard, the regular army in various places is not keen on civil war. Now, they are still dawdling on the road, it seems that they are waiting for the result of the capital battlefield.

The officers also realized this, they all fell silent, and looked at the war-torn city of Ankerton without the anxiety they had before. Since they were blocked from the outside, they could just follow the flow and wait for the outcome of the battle.

……

At the same time, the National Assembly in the city is not united to fight against the noble rebels. While the advancing troops of the Eighth Division are advancing towards the Parliament Building every day, the National Assembly is also divided into the main war faction and the main peace faction. The large number of artillery pieces equipped by the Eighth Division made many councilors feel frightened and pessimistic. They did not think that the sixth division that entered the city could compete with this powerful rebel army. It seemed that defeat was only a matter of time.

Therefore, some parliamentarians proposed to make peace with the rebels at the meeting. Instead of waiting for the enemy soldiers to come in and become prisoners, it is better to surrender before that. They do not believe that those nobles who are full of noble morality will dare to kill them all. , if they dare to start killing people, the civilians of the whole country will boil.

Compared with the main peace faction, the main war faction still has the upper hand in the parliament. They do not believe that the nobles will let them go. , the sixth division is also advancing towards the parliament building, as long as the sixth division can come before the enemy, their safety is guaranteed.

Although the main war faction has the upper hand, one of the biggest variables among them is Sandy, the number one undercover president in the National Assembly. Although this old spy who is at odds with the members of the parliament is superficially extreme The leader of the main war faction, but he has actually made preparations in secret.

The so-called two-handed preparation is to cooperate with the friendly forces inside and outside to end the war ahead of schedule.

The agents sent by Charlie last year played a role here. The mafia established by agent Gottlieb Weisberg with Charlie's behind-the-scenes funding and Sandy's cooperation had previously disrupted the order in the city and made many citizens Take up arms and take to the streets to fight. And after that, he retreated in the rapids, saving the main force of the mafia, and at this critical juncture, he once again cooperated with Sandy to plan a bigger conspiracy~www.wuxiamtl.com~ August 25, Eighth Division In the evening of the third day of entering the city.

Under Sandy's orders, most of the National Assembly's troops in the city were transferred to the front barricades, and only a few guards were still patrolling around the parliament building.

In the evening, a group of soldiers in military uniforms carried guns and escorted a carriage carrying heavy wooden barrels down the street. They avoided the route of the patrol and walked to the alley directly opposite the back door of the parliament building. Several people are waiting.

Seeing the soldiers coming over, Weisberg, who was waiting at the back door, waved his hand quickly, motioning the soldiers to park the carriage in the alley, remove the wooden barrels on the carriage, and push them into the building. The heavy wooden barrels rolled on the ground. The rolling sound was so insignificant amidst the roar of artillery in the distance.

The guards in the parliament building were all Sandy's people, and they were all concentrated at the front door by special arrangement, so the Weisberg people were able to boldly push the barrel to the room next to one of the chambers in the parliament, just in When they pushed the barrels, one of the barrels accidentally bumped, and the cracked wooden bar burst open, leaking the black powder inside.

Seeing the leaking black powder, Wisberg frowned, kicked the soldier pushing the barrel on the butt, and scolded, "Be gentle, you are so clumsy, don't ruin our big business!"

The "soldier" who was reprimanded hurriedly stopped pushing, and together with another "soldier" who came over, he lifted the barrel and moved it to that room with difficulty. When they moved in, there were already several barrels stacked inside, each Every barrel was opened, and the air was filled with a strong smell of sulfur.

Everyone is careful, for fear of generating a little spark and burying all of them here.
