On April 7, 603, in the Holy Light Calendar, the expeditionary force of the Kingdom of Morosik won a great victory over the Milankda River, annihilated nearly 80,000 Pamigal rebels, and prepared to quell the Pamigal war in one go. When people are rioting. Its left-wing army was suddenly attacked by unknown armed forces. After a fierce battle for a long time, the left-wing army collapsed and the entire army was defeated. In the end, less than a thousand people escaped...
The two legions sent by the Kingdom of Morosik to the colony this time were not the two local standing legions, but one standing legion plus a temporarily recruited reserve legion. In order to ensure combat effectiveness, the expeditionary force headquarters deliberately split the standing corps, using a standing division and a reserve division to form the left and right wings of the expeditionary force. The troops were divided into two groups to launch an attack on the Milankda River defense line held by the Pamigal people, and Get a big win.
Although the expeditionary force of the Kingdom of Morosik achieved a great victory over the Milankda River, it suffered considerable damage. Nearly half of the standing divisions on both wings of the vanguard also suffered casualties and needed a period of rest. However, the expeditionary force headquarters did not care about this. After all, the Pamigal rebels suffered more casualties. They lost about 80,000 people in the first battle. The remaining 50,000 to 60,000 horses had been killed and their courage was shattered. They would be wiped out in ashes and annihilation soon. The remaining The only thing is to recover the lost towns.
After the victory, the Morosik Kingdom Expeditionary Force Command had to consider how to deal with the plundering of the neighboring colonies of the Kingdom of Resnia and the Principality of Vasilko. There is intelligence claiming that the two neighboring colonies have each stationed a division of troops on the border. It is very likely that when the overall situation is decided, they will send troops to capture the towns adjacent to the border that are occupied by the Pamigal rebels. , by then the Three Kingdoms will be in a mess again...
Just when the expeditionary force headquarters decided to rest for a few days and let the left and right teams recover the border towns of the two adjacent colonies first, leaving the two adjacent colonies with no opportunity to take advantage of them. Suddenly, news was received that the left-wing army was attacked by unknown armed forces. The enemy also divided its troops into two groups and penetrated directly into the ribs of the left-wing army. The left-wing corps is composed of a standing division and a reserve division, divided into two parts, the front and rear. The enemy's move is hitting the weakness of the left-wing corps.
The reserve division behind collapsed first and was unable to withstand the enemy's surprise attack. The standing divisions with stronger combat effectiveness could still resist with the help of their camps, but they only lasted half a day longer. The expeditionary force headquarters urgently ordered the right-wing regiment to go to the rescue. As a result, the reinforcements were ambushed and intercepted by a division of the Pamigal people. News from the front line said that this Pamigal division was as powerful as our own standing division...
When the left-wing legion was annihilated and the escaped soldiers brought back the news that the unknown armed forces were all white officers and soldiers, the Morosik Kingdom's expeditionary force headquarters was immediately in chaos like a headless fly. Who was behind the scenes? The Kingdom of Resnia or the Principality of Vasilko? Are they going to start an all-out war with the Morosik Kingdom again
However, for the expeditionary force command, the top priority is to save the right-wing army first. After the right-wing legion went to rescue the left-wing legion and was ambushed and intercepted, the unknown armed force that destroyed the left-wing legion once again divided into two groups and attacked the right-wing legion. After joining the blocking Pamigal armed force, the right-wing legion of the Morosik Kingdom's expeditionary force was besieged by three enemy armed forces in the camp. The entire army's destruction was close at hand...
Envoys sent by the Expeditionary Force Command appeared in two adjacent colonies, angrily scolding the two countries for ignoring the moral principles of the alliance and secretly sending troops to help the rebellious Pamigal people sneak attack the alliance army. It turned out that the officials of the two adjacent colonies were also inexplicable. They I also don’t know where that powerful white armed force came from. However, they were able to pry information from the Pamigal people, and soon learned that the white armed force was composed of Hicks' captured soldiers.
So the envoy from the colony of the Kingdom of Morosik immediately went to the overseas autonomous territories, and he lodged a solemn protest to the autonomous territory parliament and the military region. However, Marshal Claude of the Dominion Military Region stated in parliament that overseas autonomous territories have always been peace-loving and pursued an independent defense policy. When the colonies on the west coast issued trade bans against overseas autonomous territories, they did not use strong military force to fight back. Instead, they made major reductions in the armed forces of the autonomous territories...
As for the Hicks prisoners, Marshal Claude said he was helpless. After all, these Hicks prisoners had completed their labor service and were now free men. Just because the Hicks Kingdom has not signed an armistice and peace agreement with the Ovelas Kingdom, nearly half a million Hicks prisoners are still stranded in the overseas autonomous territories and cannot return home. They are running around everywhere, which has increased the security of the local authorities in the autonomous territories. Order hazards and work pressure.
Therefore, although the authorities of the Dominion had heard about the Pamigal people coming to the overseas Dominion to recruit these Hicks prisoners to form a volunteer division, they were unable to stop it. Because there are no laws and regulations that prohibit these Hicks prisoners from leaving the overseas autonomous territories to help the Pamigal people fight. That is their freedom.
As for the military supplies such as matchlocks and muskets provided by the overseas dominions to the Pamigals, that is simpler. The dominion government has always advocated freedom of trade. As long as it does not hinder the security of the overseas dominions and as long as there is money, anything can be traded. If the Kingdom of Morosik wants to purchase weapons, ammunition and other military supplies from overseas autonomous territories, it will pay the money and deliver the goods first-hand. The autonomous territory government guarantees that the goods provided will be of high quality at low prices and of high quality...
The envoys from the colony of the Kingdom of Morosik did not receive a satisfactory reply and could only leave in anger. On the day he boarded the ship, news of the complete destruction of the right-wing regiment of the Morosik Kingdom's expeditionary force was published in the newspapers of the overseas autonomous territories. The dominion officials who saw him off sympathetically persuaded the frustrated envoy not to go back. He would also become a prisoner of the Pamigals when he returned to the colony, but the envoy still left on the colony's light sailing warship.
On May 23, 603 in the Holy Light Calendar, the right-wing legion of the Morosik Kingdom Expeditionary Force, which had been besieged for more than half a month, with more than 40,000 troops, was defeated by the Pamigal armed forces and two Hicks volunteer divisions. Under siege, they finally ran out of ammunition and food. After receiving assurances of personal safety, the remaining 30,000 or so officers and soldiers of the Morosik Kingdom laid down their weapons and entered the prisoner camp holding white flags.
At this point, more than 100,000 troops from the two Morosik Kingdom regiments sent to quell the chaos in the colonies were completely wiped out, leaving only the senior officers and generals of the expeditionary force headquarters in the rear. When the news came, local officials and immigrants from the Morosik Kingdom in the coastal areas of the colony and those towns recaptured by the expeditionary force were immediately thrown into chaos. They took their wives and children to the seaport towns, hoping to get a ticket to return to the kingdom. Ferry ticket...
The situation of the Morosik Kingdom's colony was decided. At this time, President Tezzinger Nora Taganem of the Pamigal National Liberation Front issued a public statement. He declared that the national liberation cause of the Pamigal people had been achieved. With the support and help of righteous people all over the world, the officers and soldiers of the two Hicks Volunteer Divisions have made indelible contributions to the independence of the Pamigal people. On behalf of the Pamigal people, he expressed deep gratitude for this.
The people of Pamigal will always remember the martyrs and friends who made heroic sacrifices for the cause of national liberation and independence of the Pamigal people, as well as the support of all the oppressed and exploited ethnic groups on the west coast for the just cause of the Pamigal people. On the eve of the freedom and liberation of the Pamigal people, he hoped that all the Pamigal people would unite as one and use the autumn wind to sweep away the fallen leaves and drive the ugly and ferocious colonists of the Morosik Kingdom out of the Nubisian continent. West Coast, to make greater contributions to the national liberation and independent establishment of the Pamigal people...
Claude walked into the conference room, and all the senior officers in the military region stood up and saluted him. Claude returned the greeting and pressed his hands to signal everyone to sit down.
General Fodeles, director of the Military Intelligence Department, was the first to speak, first introducing the current war situation in the colonies of the Kingdom of Morosik: "The Kingdom of Morosik now only has two ports: Port of Filimz and Port of St. Nicholas. The seaport town is still in control, with less than 3,000 garrison troops, and more than 100,000 immigrants from the Morosik Kingdom and their relatives are gathered in the town. The price of a ship ticket back to the kingdom has increased more than ten times, and demand is still in short supply. .. ...
If the Pamigal National Liberation Front launched an attack immediately, it would only take three or four days for these two towns to be recaptured. However, Colonel Bockal suggested adopting a slow-attack strategy in order to delay the attack so that he could calmly deploy defensive forces to prevent surprise attacks from the colonies of the Kingdom of Resnia and the Principality of Vasilko. Judging from the current situation, although the colonial authorities of both countries have declared neutrality, they are still gathering troops... "
"How many troops have been assembled in the colonies of the Kingdom of Resnia and the Principality of Vasilko?" General Netas, the head of the staff department, asked.
General Fodeles, director of the Military Intelligence Department, replied: "Originally, the two colonies only assembled one division of troops on the border. But after discovering that two Hicks volunteer divisions were helping the Pamigals fight, Resni The sub-kingdom colony continued to mobilize troops from another colony, and now a legion of troops was already assembled at the border.
The Vasiliko Principality Colony is still a division, but they began to recruit immigrants in the colony to form a reserve corps, and are now undergoing short-term military training. The division at the border began to build a defensive line along the border. It seemed that it would not participate in this war and only wanted to defend its colony... "
General Netas, the head of the staff department, laughed: "Perhaps the two Hicks volunteer divisions destroyed the two regiments of the Morosik Kingdom's expeditionary force. The powerful combat power frightened the colonies of the Kingdom of Resnia and The local authorities of the colony of the Principality of Vasilko. Now they are gathering their forces just to protect themselves and will not invade the country established by the Pamigals."
Claude nodded: "If that's the case, that would be great, and it would save us some trouble. But whether the Kingdom of Resnia and the Principality of Vasiliko will take advantage of the Pamigal country is not to see whether they are in the colony. How many troops have been assembled depends on whether the two countries have mobilized troops to recruit young men and women to form new legions...
If the Pamigal people establish an independent country, it is impossible for the Kingdom of Resnia and the Principality of Vasiliko to let go of this piece of fat. The Kingdom of Morosik is isolated and helpless. The two legions of the expeditionary force, plus the garrison legion in the colony, have already wiped out three legions and more than 200,000 troops. Even if they are unwilling, it is impossible to immediately dispatch a legion to make a comeback in a short period of time.
At least within eight months to a year, the Morosik Kingdom will be powerless against the colonies because it takes time to recruit new legions. The Kingdom of Resnia and the Principality of Vasiliko will not miss this opportunity. They can immediately dispatch one or two legions from the mainland to join this feast of carving up the country of the Pamigals... .
Therefore, tell Colonel Bockal that there is no need for him to worry about the forces gathered in the colonies of the Kingdom of Resnia and the Principality of Vasilko. Before their local troops arrive, regardless of whether the Pamirs have recaptured the two seaport towns, the Kingdom of Resnia and the Principality of Vasiliko will not send troops to the Pamirs. Let the Pamigal people establish an independent country and then prepare for the Patriotic War. "
"Yes! Your Excellency, Marshal, I will convey your opinions to Colonel Bokhar and President Tezzinger Nora Taghanem." General Fodeles responded.
General Netas stood up and walked to the map of the west coast and said: "According to our original plan, once the Kingdom of Resnia and the Principality of Vasiliko send troops from the colonies to invade the Pamigal country, we will instigate the Swiss The Rusmans of the Kingdom of Sinia, the Skolos of the Principality of Vasiliko, and the Gisdes rebelled, causing their troops on the front line to lose sight of one thing.
The Skolos and Gisdes, who are now the principality of Vasiliko, are envious of the liberation and independence of the Parmigals and are ready to imitate the Parmigals. However, the Rusmans in the Kingdom of Resnia have been hesitant. It is said that the chief we contacted did not give us a definite answer and was unwilling to agree to our request to help them establish an independent country. Under such circumstances, I think we should replace the candidates for the founding of the Rusman state... "
General Fodeles replied: "Chief Unemas Dia Modrigos is the most prestigious Rusman in the colony of the Kingdom of Resnia. We have tried our best to persuade him to follow the example of the Pamigals. Lead the Rusmans to establish an independent Rusman state.
But he refused to agree to us, believing that the establishment of an independent country would subject the Rusmans to crazy revenge from the Kingdom of Resniya, and the casualties would be heavy, and it would even affect the Rusmans in another colony of the Kingdom of Resniya. tribe. So he is unwilling to listen to our advice and just wants to let the Rusman people live a nomadic life in peace and tranquility... "
"Are there no other good candidates?" Claude asked.
"There are several nephews of the great chief Unemas Dia Modriges and leaders of several Rusman tribes who are very ambitious, but none of them have Unemas Dia Modrigs. If they rebel, as long as Chief Unemas Dia Modrigos comes out to say hello, the Rusmans who follow the rebellion will abandon them. Resnia is not needed The kingdom's colonial garrison came forward, and the chief alone was able to pacify the Rusmans." General Fodeles replied with some embarrassment.
"Since he refuses to cooperate with our actions, can't we take decisive measures against this bullshit chief?" General Netas asked angrily.
"It's difficult. It's not that we haven't thought about it..." General Fodeles said: "We once decided to take some actions against the chief Unemas Dia Modrigues to prepare him. He was bedridden or allowed to die. But this great chief took very strict precautions for his personal safety. Even when he ate, he would have someone taste the food first. He was also accompanied by the highly skilled Rusman witch doctor and the agile and strong defensemen. We have no chance to take advantage of the death-fearing personal guard.
If we take the risk of assassination and fail to kill him with one blow and kill all the guards around him in order to silence him, it will expose our autonomous military region as the mastermind behind his assassination and arouse the hatred of the Rusman people. . So we can only bide our time. But unfortunately, until now, we still have not found an opportunity to act. Moreover, during this period of time, due to constant persuasion, he alienated the personnel we sent... "
Claude knocked on the table and stopped General Fodeles from speaking: "Okay, I know this is not the responsibility of your Military Intelligence Agency. It is expected that the chief will not cooperate with our actions. Many people They all made promises before the incident happened, but then turned away and denied it. Didn’t the Rusmans get more than 10,000 new matchlock guns from us, saying they were forming self-defense forces? It doesn’t matter, he doesn’t want to defend himself, we He can be forced to defend himself.
Our next plan is to wait for the Kingdom of Resnia and the Principality of Vasilko to send troops from their colonies to invade the Pamigal country. What we have to do then is to strictly guard the borders of the Principality of Vasilko's colonies and concentrate our forces to defeat them first. Armed by the Kingdom of Resniya, it swept through its colonies, and then made a big announcement that it was at the invitation of the great chief to help the Rusman people obtain national liberation and establish an independent country. "
General Netas pondered for a moment and said: "Your Majesty Marshal, although the Pamigal people promised to form three legions of 200,000 troops to defend the country immediately after the establishment of an independent country, these three Pamigal legions can withstand the destruction of the country. The attack of the Principality of Silico is very good. The only two Hicks volunteer divisions we can use in the colony of the Kingdom of Resnia. To complete your plan, we must send more troops... "
"Send the reorganized Third Division of the Rock Army and four local garrison regiments to reinforce, and change into the military uniforms of the Hicks Volunteer Division, designated as the Hicks Volunteer Division 3rd and 4th Division, and wait until Resniya is captured. We will withdraw our troops from the Kingdom and Colonies." Claude clicked on the map of the west coast, and then took a photo of the Rodex Bay Colony of the United Kingdom of Fox Islands:
"The purpose of our dispatch this time is to annex the Rodex Bay Colony, which belongs to the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands, to unite it with the Rocky Mountain State, and to obtain a naval base for our ironclad fleet on the west coast, so that The overseas dominions no longer had to worry about threats from the sea to the west.
At the same time, after acquiring the Rodex Bay Colony, the mineral resources of the Rocky Mountain State can be transported back by sea, without having to go through rugged mountain roads, wasting time, manpower and material resources. Therefore, after occupying the colony of the Kingdom of Resnia, directly let the Hicks Volunteer Division attack the colony of Rodex Bay.
After the Hicks Volunteer Division seizes the Rodkers Bay Colony, our Dominion Military Region can use the Hicks Volunteer Division to invade our Rocky Mountain State, send troops to counterattack, and annex the Rodkers Bay Colony. In this way, the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands will have no reason to pursue us. If they want to settle accounts, let them go to the Hicks Volunteer Division to settle the accounts... "
