Clash of Lords: Civilization Game Comes to Reality - Chapter 607

c610 Besieged City (II)

The method of using troops is to surround them if there are ten of them, attack them if there are five of them, and divide them if there are twice as many of them.

The action plan of the Holy See is very simple.

The first step is to rely on a large number of holy troops to form a low-altitude interception force to protect the safety of the transport team. As long as the first batch of infantry arrives and deploys, it can ensure the safety of a large area.

The second step is to invest a large number of troops to dig out trench defense lines, cut off the enemy’s mobility direction with the open trench lines, and gather more than 600,000 troops on the front line.

The third step is to organize troops at a distance of 15 kilometers and destroy this standing fortress through wave-like offensives.

It’s just that plans will never catch up with changes. The ultra-long-range artillery of 30 kilometers is beyond their imagination.

This means that the coalition forces can touch the area behind their defense line without any effort, and they can’t use the ground to build their own supplies and logistics bases.

With the fortress as the center, any front-line material distribution center can be established within 30 kilometers.

This is also the significance of the existence of heavy long-range artillery. As long as it is within the projection range of the artillery, the enemy can only choose to reduce transportation efficiency to enhance concealment due to deterrence.

Either disperse and transport and store inefficiently, or wait to be washed by heavy artillery… Every front-line material distribution center is a target for heavy artillery.

In modern warfare, material distribution centers even have to retreat to a position more than 60 kilometers away from the front line. It takes a month to build a material distribution center, and the artillery group only needs a three-minute salvo to send the entire center personnel and materials to the sky.

Use heavy fortress artillery to suppress and counter artillery fire.

All surface operations are safer.

This was not in the Vatican’s plan. They had never thought that the coalition forces could bring out heavy artillery with a range of 30 kilometers. 15 kilometers was the maximum range of artillery fire they calculated.

As long as they hold this line, the enemy’s artillery will fall on the logistics transport team.

“What does Levins say…”

The priest wearing the divisional command armband looked at the messenger beside him.

A cross was inserted into the ground, and there were several low-level priests surrounding the messenger, chanting scriptures, and the incense floating in the air made people feel very comfortable.

With the help of divine arts, the priests can set up an altar to withstand great mental pressure to spread a small amount of information to a distance and hear replies from afar.

The division-level priest stared at the messenger, feeling anxious and bored. For a moment, he thought that the other party was dead here.

“He asked us to continue to implement the plan according to the original plan… 20,000 casualties are acceptable, and there will be more soldiers to supplement later…”

The messenger read out the reply from afar word by word.

“The first trench defense line must be established within three days. Those who fail to implement the plan will be punished by law on the spot.”

Kill.

“Is it just 20,000 casualties? The remaining 130,000 people can also complete the plan. The original plan was that 100,000 people could complete the work, and 130,000 people are more.”

The young priest who was airdropped into the Vatican troops didn’t care at all and stared at the military priests who came to communicate.

This group of priests belonging to the Levins faction were assigned to the troops just to make the troops loyal to the order… If they win, they have the credit, and if they lose, they have no fault.

Being blameless is more important than winning.

Everyone in their faction needs to take responsibility.

“You have to know that this is the order of Levins. Let go and do it. No matter what, complete the first step of the plan… By the way, remember to repair my underground command post better.”

The young priest waved his hand and asked the division commander to return to the team to continue their work.

“Sir, your car of decorations… was blown up by the previous artillery bombardment…”

The nun in charge of assisting said tremblingly.

“What a waste! Can you just let it go?”

The young priest cursed and turned to look at the military priests who were standing there and leaving to report.

“You find a way to deal with that group of dead men and heavy artillery. The Levinsian plan must be implemented. The Privy Council gave you so many resources just to make you a waste.”

“If possible… I hope the defense line will retreat… five kilometers…” The priest in charge of military affairs said: “As long as we retreat five kilometers, our logistics pressure will be much less.”

“Yes, we can retreat.” The priest of Levinsian paced: “If we retreat, then the plan cannot be carried out as scheduled? Did you use the Holy Army to conduct air assaults before? It was very effective? Just like destroying the small camp before.”

The military commander touched the sweat on his cheek and thought that the previous action was effective because they faced a small camp, and the troops could destroy the defensive positions instantly.

However, they had never touched the fortified fortifications.

There is no comparison between the camp and the fortress. Attacking the camp requires facing a concrete wall of more than eight meters, a large number of ambush barbed wire and spell traps, not to mention the enemy’s bunkers and towers.

You need to face the densely packed riflemen in the fortress group, and the monster infantry hiding in the bunkers.

The military priest took a deep breath, thinking about the possibility of air assault… This is the only way they can destroy the enemy’s heavy artillery now.

How many holy soldiers will die if the air assault wants to destroy the fortress and heavy artillery… But compared with maintaining the logistics line, this part of the loss of holy soldiers is also worth it.

“We have counted the artillery pits, and the enemy only has twelve super-long-range heavy artillery…” The priest continued with a stiff face: “We can try, there is still a batch of captured explosives… It is certain that this batch of fortress artillery can be destroyed…”

Use the Holy Army to replace the enemy’s fortress heavy artillery group in exchange for logistics security.

“Very good, very good, let’s do it!” The young priest sat back in his seat: “This is the will of the Privy Council, whether it means the death of 20,000 people, 100,000 people, or 200,000 people, it must be implemented… Then we can all sit safely.”

But whether it is him or the young officer sent by Levins to monitor him, they all need to go to the most dangerous front-line battlefield.
