Chapter 254: Loopholes on the Eastern Front

July 17, 290 in the Imperial Calendar of the Britannia Empire.

10:25 am.

Luo Lin's Army, Western Front.

Denis and Leo, who are fully responsible for the western front and responsible for resisting the Britannian Army's Western Route Army, are standing on a high ground in the camp, looking at the position of the Britannian Army's Western Route Army in the north. .

The 53,000 troops commanded by Allen and the 70,000 troops commanded by Denis and Leo were very close to each other. As long as they stood at a slightly higher place, they could overlook each other's military camps.

During these ten days, Allen led the Western Route Army to launch fierce attacks against Denis and Leo again and again.

In just a few days, Allen launched five large-scale attacks.

As for Denis and Leo, they were indeed the best generals in the Rollin Empire. They calmly arranged their defenses and blocked one after another fierce attack launched by Allen.

Thanks to the abilities of Denis and Leo, Allen has yet to break through the defense line set up by them.

The two armies faced each other in a stalemate between the north and the south.

Allen was unable to break through the defense line set up by the two, and Denis and Leo had no intention of launching a counterattack.

Denis and Leo are very satisfied with the current situation of North-South confrontation and mutual stalemate between the two armies.

After all, their mission on the western front is only to support the "Operation Headless Snake" on the central front, to hold back Allen's Western Route Army, and to prevent Allen's Western Route Army from going south and affecting Barr's On the central front, "Operation Headless Snake" was implemented to annihilate Albert.

Denis, who was standing on a certain high ground in the camp, looking at the Britannia Army's Western Route Army position not far to the north, suddenly said quietly to Leo, who was standing next to him:

"Leo, don't tell me, Allen's military use is still limited."

"Well, yes." Leo nodded with deep understanding, "He is indeed a general who is famous for his offensive skills. In the past ten days, Allen has launched five large-scale attacks, and he was almost defeated several times. Breaking through the defense line.”

"Yeah..." Denis sighed, looking frightened. "Looking back now, I still feel very scared. I really don't want to defend against such a general who is good at attacking."

Having said this, Deni paused for a moment before continuing:

"It's just that after the failure of the fifth large-scale attack three days ago, Allen has not launched a new attack until now."

The camps between the two armies were very close. Standing on a small high ground, Deni and Leo could easily see the position of the Western Route Army commanded by Allen in the north.

Looking at the tens of thousands of flags fluttering in the wind in the Allen Army camp in the north, Leo said in a deep voice:

"Yes... He has finally stopped in the past few days. If possible, I really hope that he can stay like this until the Central Front completes the 'Operation Headless Snake' and annihilates Albert."

"This Allen may have discovered that it is difficult to break through the defense line set up by the two of us with a strong attack." Denis said calmly, "So I plan to stop and think of new ways to break through."

"Huh, let him attack however he wants." Leo's tone was full of confidence, "No matter how he attacks, the two of us will hold him back."

"Haha, that's true. But there is one thing I care about."

Speaking of this, Denis frowned, and then continued:

"According to the intelligence sent back by spies before the war started, Allen brought a secretly trained elite force from Pendragon."

"But it has been more than ten days since the war started, and we still haven't seen Allen put the elite troops he brought into the battlefield..."

After hearing what Deni said, Leo also frowned, and then said:

"Could it be that the spies' intelligence was wrong? Allen didn't bring any secretly trained elite troops at all?"

"No, the possibility is very low.

"Deni replied without hesitation, "The information sent back by the spies should be credible. Allen has not put the elite troops he brought into the battlefield until now. Maybe he wants to put them on the battlefield. It is used as a secret weapon, and this elite force is not deployed until the most critical moment..."

As soon as Denis finished speaking, an atmosphere called "silence" surrounded the two of them.

However, the two did not remain silent for too long. After a while, Leo broke the silence and said:

"Forget it, no matter what, we just need to continue to strengthen our vigilance and strengthen our defense lines."

"Well, that's true." Deni sighed slightly, and then continued, "It's useless to think about it so much. We just need to continue to be vigilant."

Just as Denis finished speaking, an urgent shout suddenly came from behind the two of them:

"Two generals!!"

After hearing this loud shout, both Denis and Leo turned their heads away.

Found out to be a messenger.

Judging from the dusty appearance of this messenger, he must be a messenger from one of the fronts.

Before Denis and Leo could ask which front the messenger belonged to, the messenger took the lead in reporting his family background:

"Two generals! I am the messenger on the central front! Here is the battle report sent to you by Commander Barr!"

After saying that, the messenger quickly took a few steps forward, then took out a piece of parchment from his arms, and then handed it to Denis and Leo respectfully.

"Central Front?" Denis raised his eyebrows, and then took the parchment handed over by the messenger, "Well, thank you for your hard work, please step back first."

"yes!"

After the messenger left quickly, Deni slowly unfolded the parchment in his hand and carefully browsed the battle report sent by Barr.

After quickly reading the content of the battle report from Barr, Deni suddenly burst into laughter, and then handed the parchment in his hand to Leo beside him.

"Hahahaha! Leo, take a look, the situation is slowly tilting in favor of our Luo Lin Empire!"

After hearing what Deni said, Leo couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, then quickly took the parchment handed over by Deni, and then read it quickly.

After quickly reading the content of the battle report on the parchment, Leo also let out a series of laughs like Denis:

"Hahahahaha! 'Operation Headless Snake' seems to be going very smoothly! The first phase has been completed! Albert has already joined his vanguard troops and is driving straight towards Coach Barr!"

"Hehe, yes."

Deni chuckled, his face full of uncontrollable joy.

"Now the first phase of 'Operation Headless Snake' has ended successfully." Deni said, "This battle report was probably sent in yesterday evening. According to the content of this battle report, it was probably in This afternoon, Albert’s center army will come into contact with the main army led by Coach Barr!”

At this time, Leo on the side answered:

"As long as Coach Barr comes into direct contact with Albert, the second phase of 'Operation Headless Snake' will begin."

"I hope the second phase of 'Operation Headless Snake' can be as successful as the first phase." Denis said in a half-joking tone.

"Hello."

Leo slapped Deni angrily, and then continued:

"Don't say that you have no fighting spirit. You should say, 'It will be as successful as the first stage', right?"

"Haha, sorry, sorry."

Denis apologized to Leo several times in an unapologetic tone, and then continued:

"Since the 'Operation Headless Snake' on the central front is going so smoothly, then we on the western front must also provide good support to the central front."

"Ah, yes."

Leo continued enthusiastically:

"Even if we risk our lives, we must drag Allen and his Western Route Army here! We must not let Allen and his Western Route Army interfere with the 'Headless Snake Operation' on the central front! "

"Yeah, that's right."

The corners of Denis' mouth turned up slightly, and a smile full of confidence gradually appeared on his face.

"The success of the 'Operation Headless Snake' on the central front is related to the trend of the entire battle. So Leo, what you just said is right. Even if it costs our lives, we must hold back Allen and His West Route Army! We must not let him interfere with the 'Headless Snake Operation'! Whether our Luo Lin Empire wins or loses this time depends entirely on this 'Headless Snake Operation'."

Speaking of this, Deni, who originally had a confident smile on his face, suddenly seemed to remember something, and the smile on his face froze.

Then, the confident smile on his face slowly turned into a bitter smile.

"Sigh." Denis smiled bitterly, "I don't know what's going on on the eastern front."

"Deni..." A wry smile appeared on Leo's face at this time, "Are you still worried about the Eastern Front? Don't worry, give those young people more confidence. And the Eastern Front was not busy a few days ago. Have there been any battle reports? In the past ten days, the East Route Army led by Su Cheng has been silent. I guess that Su Cheng's East Route Army may only be responsible for a feint attack and will not actually launch an attack. Attack south, so stop worrying about things on the eastern front."

After listening to Leo's consolation, Deni was silent for a while, and then said in a deep voice:

"...Rather than worrying about the Eastern Front, I am worried about Simeon and Gil."

"Simeon and Gil?" Leo asked strangely, "What happened to them two?"

"Leo, you also know, right? The Eastern Front is now in charge of those five young people. I am quite relieved about the three of them, Luo Xie, Eugene, and Ode."

"The ones I worry about the most are Simeon and Gil."

"Simeon is the youngest among the five of them. He has just celebrated his 20th birthday and has the least combat experience."

"And I have seen his combat history. So far, he has only fought against the wind and never fought against the wind."

"In other words, Simeon lacks the experience to face adverse situations and emergency situations."

After listening to Denis' words carefully, Leo nodded, and then asked aloud:

"What about Gil? What's wrong with Gil? Why can't you worry about Gil? Isn't Gil the one we recognize as having the most potential and ability? If it weren't for the fact that the combat experience was not as good as Luo Xie's, we would have put Gil in charge of the Eastern Front instead of Luo Xie. Take responsibility."

"...Gill is indeed the most capable and potential among the five. But...Gill is also a somewhat conceited person..."

Denis sighed, and then continued:

“Although Gil has great talents, he is too confident in his talents, so he has several records of disobeying his superiors’ orders and acting according to his own ideas because his superiors’ ideas are inconsistent with his own. "

"It's just that because of his several private actions, which have achieved good results, and because the top management prefers Gil, Gil has never been punished."

"So...I'm very worried that Jill will disobey Luo Xie, the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Front, and act privately like before..."

"If Gil's private actions can bring huge results, then I'm afraid that his private actions will have a negative impact on the battle situation on the Eastern Front..."

"I just hope... that the Eastern Route Army led by Su Cheng can continue to stand still as before, so that the eastern front can remain so 'quiet'..."

After saying that, Deni sighed again.
