Chapter 1247: Divide the Troops and March North

This person is worthy of being an envoy from the central government, and his business ability is simply outstanding.

The tone of speaking, the speed of speaking, the voice of speaking, and the degree of use of honorifics are all perfect.

But the content of what he said was really shocking, making Walter unable to recover for a long time after listening to it.

The central envoy had to use a doubtful tone and cautiously ask Walter:

"General Zimmerman? Are you okay?"

"Ah...sorry, sorry..." Walter raised his hand and rubbed his right temple, "I was distracted just now..."

Having said that, after being reminded by the central envoy, he came to his senses. After taking a few breaths of cold air, he said in a deep voice:

"I really didn't expect...the grassland people's direction of sending troops would be so bold..."

"He actually directly broke through the eastern defense line of the Holy Hiran Empire, passed through the territory of the Holy Hiran Empire, and attacked the northern defense line, which is currently the weakest defense in our country..."

"It seems... not all prairie people are reckless..."

After sighing again, Walter raised his head and said to the central envoy standing in front of the long table:

"I understand. I will immediately arrange for 50,000 troops to go north to reinforce the northern part of our country. Your Excellency, the envoy, please step back and rest for the time being, Johnson! Take your Excellency the envoy down to rest!"

"Yes!" the general known as Johnson responded loudly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will temporarily retire." The envoy also bowed and bowed out of the camp.

After the central envoy exited the camp's tent, the tent was filled with heated discussions.

Many generals in the tent asked Walter the next moment after the central envoy left the camp:

"Coach! Do we really want to divide 50,000 troops and go north to reinforce the northern part of our country?"

"Is it still too late to divide our forces for rescue?"

"Yes! The prairie people, whose main force is cavalry, are famous for their fast marching speed!"

…

In response to these questions from the generals,

Walter replied without thinking:

"Of course we have to divide our troops. This is His Majesty's order. Do you still want to disobey the Emperor's order?"

“As for whether we can catch up, that’s not something we have to consider.

"We just need to divide our forces immediately, and then do our best to enable these 50,000 troops to reach the northern part of the empire as quickly as possible - that's it."

"But..." At this moment, another general raised his question, "If we divide 50,000 troops and go north...then won't our military strength become weaker? With our military strength weakened, there are still Is there any way to destroy the Britannia Empire?"

The general's words made Walter fall silent.

The entire main camp also became silent.

After being silent for a while, Walter finally broke the silence in the tent:

"With only 50,000 troops, it should still be insignificant..."

"Even if 50,000 troops are separated, the encirclement net against Iser's remnant army can still be very tight, and no soldier of Iser's remnant army in the net will be allowed to escape."

In the decisive battle with the armies of Iser and Albert - the Battle of the Rhineland, the Frankish army, which originally had a strength of 500,000, suffered 100,000 direct casualties.

Although after several months of treatment, more than 30,000 of the 100,000 casualties have recovered and successfully returned to the army, there are still 70,000 people lying in the wounded camps waiting for treatment and unable to fight. Or simply fall asleep and never wake up.

Then, another 200,000 troops were divided—that is, the entire Royal Fleet. It was handed over to Otto to lead the 200,000 troops to fight against Su Cheng's combined fleet.

Subsequently, another 33,500 people were separated and handed over to Bazel, who was ordered to lead this army to lift the blockade of the East Lake entrance of Lake Anga by the Britannia Army.

If another 50,000 troops are now sent to support the northern part of the empire, then Walter's military strength will be reduced to only men.

Such a number of troops was already small enough to make the senior generals in the Frankish army feel uneasy.

"Even if 50,000 troops are separated, our siege network against Iser's remnant army is still unbreakable."

In order to stabilize the minds of his subordinates, all the generals in Walter's account continued to shout loudly.

"When General Ludendorff lifts the blockade of Zlukou and General Holweg defeats Su Cheng's troops, our army's total military strength will return to nearly 400,000!"

"This kind of military power is more than enough to destroy the Britannia Empire!"

"So don't worry!"

"Victory - it will only belong to us in the end!"

As the commander-in-chief of the entire army, these categorical words of Walter made some of the generals present who felt a little uneasy because of the weakening of their military strength calm down.

…

…

The envoys from the central government had just arrived in the morning, and the 50,000-strong army had been integrated by the afternoon.

If the 50,000 troops transferred to the northern part of the empire were weak soldiers of poor quality and were discovered by Emperor Shade, then Walter would definitely be punished.

Maybe Walter's enemies will use it as a reason to attack Walter.

Therefore, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the 50,000 soldiers who went north to reinforce the northern part of the empire were all elite soldiers in the army.

These 50,000 troops drove straight out of the military camps in the Rhineland Plain and towards the north of the Frankish Empire...

Until the 50,000 troops left the barracks, Walter still believed that even without the 50,000 troops, they could still annihilate the remnants of Issel's army, defeat Su Cheng's joint fleet, and destroy the Britannia Empire...

...

...

Walter was not the only one who received the order to mobilize troops from his monarch.
