Chapter 726: 400-Mile Raid (Part 1)

Morning, 9:05.

Bishui Port, a temporary meeting place for the knights.

Willy chose an open high ground in Clear Water Port and held a temporary meeting that all knights had to attend.

Mulder and Blaise, who are the commander-in-chief and deputy commander-in-chief of the navy, also attended the meeting.

"This is the march plan drawn up by the regiment leader himself."

Willy smoothed the map spread out on the table.

"Everyone must have seen this march map thousands of times."

Some knights, including Raymond, Samuel and others, nodded.

After the Michael Knights successfully landed, Su Cheng planned the attack route for the Muhawicz Fortress.

Before the Muhawicz Fortress is fully prepared for defense, completing this attack route is the most difficult part of this "Northern Great Turn" battle.

If the attack is carried out according to the march route planned by Su Cheng, the total distance from Bishui Port to Muhawicz Fortress will be nearly 400 miles.

This battle has a total distance of 400 miles, so you must be fast!

The sooner you arrive at the gates of the Mukhavec Fortress, the more advantageous it will be to attack the Mukhavec Fortress.

If it were delayed for too long, it would be difficult for the defenders of Mukhervitz Fortress to know that the Knights of Michael were coming across the sea and make sufficient defense preparations to capture it.

Therefore, in order to speed up the attack route, Su Cheng planned an advance route that bypassed all the cities along the way.

To put it simply, it means not occupying any city, avoiding all the cities, and going straight to Muhawicz Fortress.

Therefore - this transport team requires a large number of horse-drawn carriages, which are responsible for transporting the daily grain, fodder and other baggage required by the 80,000-strong army.

During the troops' attack, the horse-drawn carriage team responsible for carrying the baggage had to follow them closely throughout the entire process. All the daily supplies needed by the troops depended on this transport team to provide them.

This way of marching can prevent the supply line from being cut off by the enemy city behind, because there is no supply line at all in this way of marching, and all supplies are carried with you throughout the whole process.

This "Northern Great Turn" operation has been prepared for more than half a year.

A large number of carriages and pack horses were raised, but the number of carriages was still not sufficient.

The number of carriages brought across the sea was only enough to carry 80,000 troops for seven days.

In other words - they have to complete the 400-mile journey within 7 days at the latest!

After 7 days, they will run out of food.

Within 7 days, they ran from Bishui Port to Muhawicz Fortress and captured Muhawicz Fortress.

There must be so much material stored in the Muhawicz Fortress that even if it is burned, it cannot be burned out immediately. As long as the Muhawicz Fortress is captured, there is no need to worry about supplies.

The task was very arduous. This assault was the most difficult part of the entire battle. In terms of difficulty, the Battle of Bishui Port early this morning was nothing compared to this.

"Gary." Willy raised his head and asked Gary, "How much baggage is there that has not been loaded on the truck?"

Supervise the loading of baggage off the transport ship and onto the truck - Willie gave this task to Gary.

"There's still about half of it," Gary replied. "It won't be until 13 o'clock this afternoon that all the baggage can be loaded onto the truck."

"Is it 13 o'clock in the afternoon... Well, okay, I understand." Willy nodded, "Then - 14 o'clock in the afternoon!"

Willy announced loudly to the knights in front of him.

"At 14:00 in the afternoon, the entire army began to attack!"

After Willy's order came down, the expressions of all the knights present became more solemn.

"After launching the attack on Muhawicz Fortress, Lord Mu De, you and the naval fleet will be stationed at Bishui Port."

"I will leave some of my soldiers to help you guard Bishui Port."

"If the attack fails, Bishui Port is our only retreat to the Britannia Empire."

"However, if the attack fails, the possibility that we can safely retreat to Bishui Port is very low."

"So don't let your guard down just because you think we still have a way out."

“I hope everyone understands this and cheers up.”

Several of the less senior knights swallowed.

"That's all I have to say. Let's all disperse and take some time to rest. There must be many people like me who didn't sleep all night last night, right?"

"While you still have some time, get some sleep."

"After 14:00 in the afternoon, we will not have the opportunity to have a good rest for several days in the future."

…

…

at the same time.

There's a place in the Eghar Mountains where birds don't shit.

"Hey, El, you called me here and asked me to climb the Eghar Mountains together. Are you just trying to use me as a substitute?"

Gabriel said in a very dissatisfied tone to El, who was lying on his back.

At this time, Gabriel was carrying El on his back, walking on an extremely rugged mountain road.

"That's right." El, who was being carried by Gabriel on his back, laughed. "This kind of mountain road is not walked by people at all. How can I possibly walk on it? So I need someone with super physical strength like you to carry me." walk over."

After taking over this task from Dominic, El asked Gabriel from Dominic.

Gabriel's injury has almost healed, and it is no longer a problem to participate in this surprise attack on Avalon Fortress.

After leading the 2,000 elite troops in the army, they officially began to cross the Eghar Mountains, but whenever they encountered a difficult road, El would ask Gabriel to carry him across.

The two were as close as brothers. They lived together in the slums outside DìDū when they were young. Gabriel would not refuse his brother's request.

But over time, Gabriel gradually found something wrong.

He felt like he had become El's "human transportation tool".

So he couldn't help asking El just now.

After hearing El admit that he really used him as a transportation tool, Gabriel pretended to be angry and said:

"You bastard! Do you believe me? I'll throw you off the cliff!"

There was a steep wall at his feet, and Gabriel pretended to throw El down.

"Okay, okay!" El, who was frightened, said immediately, "I was just joking. Using you as a means of transportation is only part of the reason! The main reason is that I want to get a helping hand from you!"

"Gabriel, you are very strong and brave. We need your help in the sneak attack on Avalon Fortress. If you act as the vanguard, your bravery will definitely boost the morale of the troops, and the success rate of the sneak attack will also increase slightly."

"Let me be frank in advance. I can't help much."

Gabriel interrupted.

"The Knights of Michael are full of powerful generals, and there are too many powerful generals who can fight. Last time, I was knocked down the wall by Samuel, the commander of the 2nd Army."

"That's because you are not familiar with how to deal with enemies who are good at chain magic." El comforted, "When you are familiar with how to deal with chain magic, you shouldn't lose so badly when facing Samuel again."
