Chapter 167： reinforce

"Woo..." The siren suddenly sounded in the calm barracks, and all the barracks suddenly became noisy.

Each soldier began to tidy up his bags. The weapons stored outside the barracks were picked up one by one, and the helmets hung on the weapons were also taken off one by one.

The gray military uniform was illuminated with a tactical vest made of canvas, and Ailan Hill's infantry equipment had also undergone tremendous changes over the course of more than a year. The original armed belt has been simplified and replaced by a more reasonable tactical vest design.

The m42 helmet is still the classic standard configuration, but there is an extra layer of camouflage net like a fishing net on it. The soldiers walked out of the barracks one by one in silence, and lined up in a neat line on the open space outside the barracks.

"Stand at attention! Take a rest! Stand at attention!" With a slogan next to each other, the platoon commanders and company commanders walked past the troops under their command. Every soldier was nervous and full of energy. They looked at their officers with curiosity and desire in their eyes.

"The 9th Division is assembled! You can start at any time!" An officer walked to the side of a heroic female general and stood up and saluted and reported: "Please give instructions!"

Cape Luna is not very old, even very young, but she is still the most respected commander of the 9th Army up and down. She performed very well in the work of forming the 9th Army and demonstrated extraordinary organizational skills.

Now, the female general held her hands on her back and looked at the soldiers who had lined up in front of her with her chin open. She nodded with satisfaction and gave her own order: "Go!"

There are a total of 4 armies deployed in the Veronsa area, and these units have their own strategic missions.

In fact, the troops originally prepared to support Gricken were the mechanized 1st and 2nd armies, that is, the famous Allan Hill 1st and 2nd armies.

However, because the railway was not fully repaired, the 1st and 2nd Army Groups were not suitable for reinforcements because of the highest degree of mechanization.

After all, it was not the enemy in front of the army that troubled Allan Hill's army, but the supplies behind it. So after weighing it up, the 9th Army, which was originally responsible for the queen, became the most suitable unit to take the lead in combat because of its moderate size.

This unit has its own armored unit, but there are also light infantry units that do not consume much logistical supplies. They can barely be maintained by half of the railway. And this unit comes from Higgs, under the organization of Princess Luna, it has the best training and its combat effectiveness is quite strong.

At several railway stations in the Veronsa area, the tank units of the 9th Army are loading vehicles on standby. All the tanks were loaded on the flatbed train and fixed with steel wire ropes. On the armor of most tanks, beautiful runes are outlined.

The soldiers crowded in the passenger carriages, and everyone curiously looked at the comrades waiting on the platform and waited for the train to depart.

"The 1st Army, which is responsible for covering our air force, has already set off. The airport near Gricken has been repaired long ago... But the supporting facilities are still to be shipped, so..." Walking out of the barracks, next to Princess Cape Luna. The 9th Army Chief of Staff General Alfred who followed looked up at the sky and said, "The transportation is not over yet."

Over their heads, at least 50 C-47 transport aircraft flew by in formation. These transport aircraft are responsible for transporting ground crews of the Air Force’s 1st Army, as well as various necessary maintenance equipment.

Before Greken had planned to reserve gasoline for the reinforcements of Ailan Hill, the transportation pressure was somewhat eased, and at least the advancing troops had some confidence.

"We still have air support? Ha! It's good." Looking at the transport planes in the sky, a smile appeared on Cape Luna's face: "I thought we were going to be there. Fighting alone."

"Impossible. The air force's paratroopers, probably a division, were reinforcements for us." General Alfred sat in the front row of the car and turned around and said to Luna, "First Army. A rocket launcher regiment was also transferred to us, but this time we go to Grecon, the light infantry is still the main force."

"Higgs are never afraid to sacrifice and bleed!" Cape Luna looked at the grenadiers lined up on the road passing by, and said proudly: "We are willing to fight for this world until the end. !"

Following her car were trucks full of soldiers. These trucks were dragging new 155mm howitzers.

The long army of soldiers has no end in sight. The 100,000-level army is mobilized, and it can stretch for several kilometers. This kind of thing does not happen often, so the local civilians in Veronsa are also curiously looking at this. Soldiers about to go west.

"Mom, mom! Are they going to fight the Holy Demon Empire?" a little girl asked her mother's arm, shaking her mouth.

With a worried expression on her mother's face, she lowered her head to comfort her daughter and said: "Mom doesn't know, I hope the war will never break out..."

And while they were talking, a m4 tank full of runes rumbled past them, and a bunch of Ailanhill grenadiers holding stg-44 assault rifles looked down on these Verenzas. Civilians.

Some of them were stern, but some showed their white teeth and smiled at the civilians. Their tanks and cars rolled up the dust in the sky, making these people who were watching the bustling aisle step back involuntarily, covering their noses.

Over the heads of these tanks, a giant dragon whizzed past, and the Veronza area also assembled its own army this time. After the mobilization order of Alan Hill is issued, the Veronza area will also dispatch a force to accompany the first. The 9th Army fights.

This force does not need much logistical supplies, or the more they move westward, the stronger they will become. This magic force will serve as an auxiliary force and participate in the operations of the 9th Army to experiment with magic arms and mechanization. The feasibility of corps cooperation.

Just as the 9th Group Army began to gather westward along the railway line, far west, in a quiet cemetery in Gricken.

A girl with big eyes was sitting on her knees in front of a mottled stone monument. She was wiping tears, weak and affectionate.

"Father... you gave your life 300 years ago, in exchange for 300 years of peace in Grecken... Yesterday my teacher and my seniors launched the magic forbidden curse together. They are just like you. Out of her own life..." The girl was in front of the tombstone, crying intermittently about her sadness.

"You succeeded, but we failed... The Eye of Magic is still active, and 10 magicians who are more powerful than me were sacrificed in vain." Her tears fell into the mud in front of her knees. , One by one crystal clear.

"Tell me, what else can we do? What can we do?" The voice of the question floated in the air, but no one answered.

"Vivian... If this is our destiny, then we have to accept it, right?" A white giant wolf squatted behind the girl, vomiting pity.

"Father, I'm going to fight, for Greken, for the weak people behind us. Please give me strength..." She got up from the ground, put her hand on the tombstone, and passed it to her heart. Icy.

A magical lightning smashed down in the distance, and the magical aura of the dark clouded Grykken area had been very disordered. Countless terrifying demonic creatures are scattered in the eyes of magic, and the once beautiful Gricken has now changed its appearance.

Putting the mask that Chris had seen on his face, his short figure swayed in the wind. Vivian became taciturn for the first time, as if she had really grown up overnight.

"Mr. Wolf, reorganize our army on the ground! Protect the magic city of Grissom! Our reinforcements are already on the way. As long as we persist, we can counterattack the Eye of Magic after they arrive."

"You are so optimistic about those mortals?" The giant wolf got up from the ground, its tall figure comparable to an elephant. When he spoke, the sharp teeth in his mouth gleamed with a cold light, and he looked like a very ugly guy.

"There is no news from the Puppet Empire. I don't know when the elves and dragon reinforcements will arrive... Maybe they will never come... So, all we can count on is those mortal armies." Wei Wei An replied while walking forward.

The magic robe on her body was shaking in the wind, and the light of the magic inscription exuded a peaceful atmosphere in the fierce wind: "And, if you have seen those mortal weapons with your own eyes, you know what I mean. They don't rely on magic. Fighting, which makes them more suitable for war of attrition."

"When you say this, I have a bottom in my heart. If they can help us guard the flanks, attacking the magic eye will have a chance of winning." The giant wolf followed Vivian step by step, his white hair fluffy. Fluttering in the wind.

"I have great confidence in them... Let's go and meet the Grand Magisters. Now we must protect the civilians from the war zone, and also protect the important oil depots and airports... There is a lot of work."

"Those mortals... are really troublesome... Why do they need so many things in war?" The giant wolf complained a little angrily when he heard Vivian's words.

"Don't complain! When they come, you will find that they are a group of very interesting little guys." Thinking of that interesting Emperor, the face behind Vivian's mask showed a faint smile.
