Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

Combined Fleet Commander Edward did not order the pursuit of Qian Hongtao's third division, which gave the third division enough time to retreat.

Qian Hongtao evacuated the battlefield unimpeded. What he has to do now is to ensure that the coalition forces behind him will follow the route planned by Daxia.

Therefore, after he ran ten kilometers away, he left a battalion of troops behind, led by him, ready to continue to lure the enemy.

When the sun just rose the next day, Qian Hongtao heard the sound of military bugles coming from Jinghai, and he knew that the coalition forces were preparing to march.

Therefore, Qian Hongtao also asked the soldiers to get ready. When he saw the coalition soldiers appearing in front of him, Qian Hongtao immediately ordered to shoot.

The sudden gunshots frightened the coalition troops and immediately fell to the ground and fired back.

And Qian Hongtao didn't even think about fighting with the coalition forces in this place.

After he gave the order to fire, no matter how many casualties he caused, he ran away with his soldiers.

The coalition forces had lost dozens of soldiers in the sneak attack just now. Naturally, Brigadier General White, the commander of the coalition forces, did not want to let Qian Hongtao go.

Therefore, Brigadier General White ordered the pursuit.

Since there was only one battalion left by Qian Hongtao, about [-] people, and they were traveling lightly, they ran very quickly.

On the coalition side, there were more than [-] people, and there were accompanying troops with artillery. They moved slowly and could not catch up with Qian Hongtao.

Therefore, during the dozens of kilometers from Jinghai to Chaobai River, Qian Hongtao slowly consumed White's patience, and at the same time, he led White's more than [-] people towards the scheduled battlefield.

At noon the next day, when Qian Hongtao was less than five kilometers away from the Chaobai River Bridge, he sped up and fled.

At this time, White actually saw that Qian Hongtao had deliberately lured him here, but the arrogant White did not take this to heart.

In his impression, Daxia was still the backward Daxia. A group of ancient Eastern empires with no fighting capacity and backward weapons.

The more than [-] coalition soldiers and dozens of artillery under his command gave him endless courage and made him feel that he could move around Daxia without restraint.

He didn't care at all whether there was an ambush in front of him. In his opinion, there was no difference between an ambush and no ambush.

So what if there is an ambush? He is confident that he can defeat the people who ambush him, and even surround them and eliminate them completely.

White is very confident. In his opinion, what he leads is the invincible John Army, a powerful army that has conquered the world.

Therefore, White led the people without hesitation and followed Qian Hongtao towards the Chaobai River Bridge.

At this time, Lin Yi, who was located in Chaobai River, had already established a defensive position.

He deployed [-] men to the west of the Chaobai River Bridge, preparing to block White's [-] horses head-on.

This is not because Lin Yi is crazy, but because he is confident.

The current west bank has been built into a semi-permanent fortification by him. Countless trenches are spread across the entire west bank, and some are reinforced with log fortresses.

Moreover, half of the Maxim heavy machine guns he signed were assigned to the West Bank.

One hundred Schneider 75mm field guns are also located on the west bank.

The range of up to seven or eight kilometers is enough for these artillery to cover the entire battlefield.

With such a firepower configuration, in Lin Yi's opinion, if White can still break through, then he doesn't have to play anymore.

He has also learned about the weapons and equipment of the Kingdom of John and the Kingdom of Gaul. Currently, the Kingdom of John and the Kingdom of Gaul still use traditional rifles, that is, Enfield rifles.

This rifle has very good performance and can be said to be an excellent standard weapon.

However, no matter how good it is, it is still not as good as the Mauser 98k in the hands of the new first division. What's more, there are a large number of Maxim heavy machine guns in the defensive positions on the west bank.

This kind of weapon, which has not yet existed, will definitely let John State know what fire suppression is.

Lin Yi was on the west bank at this time, and he wanted to personally command this battle. He had been notified by Qian Hongtao and understood that White was now less than five kilometers away from the Chaobai River Bridge.

White also discovered Lin Yi now. He was a little disdainful and felt that Daxia's commander was a little naive. He naively thought that relying on a bridge could stop the heroic John soldiers.

White was confident that he could capture the defensive positions on the other side with a single charge.

Lin Yi didn't know what White was thinking. Even if he knew, he would just smile indifferently.

[Ding, it’s discovered that John’s country and the Gallic coalition have discovered that the host is about to be in a combat state and meets the conditions. Now start the campaign mode. 】

[As long as the host personally directs and participates in the war, completes the set strategic goals, and wins, the assistant will score the host's behavior after the war. 】

[The points the host can obtain will directly affect the host’s rewards. 】

[The reward mode is the carousel lottery. 】

[Now announce the established goal of this battle, to destroy the coalition army that entered Daxia. 】

[After the task is completed, the host wheel will be rewarded with three draws. Please come on, host! 】

Lin Yi, who was thinking, suddenly heard a voice in his head, and he smiled with satisfaction.

In fact, he had already guessed that his first command of the battle should trigger the assistant.

What he didn't expect was that this time it was not a random mission, but a new mode was triggered.

This mechanism called campaign mode, in Lin Yi's opinion, is a scoring system.

As long as the score is high, you will get a chance to draw.

Although Lin Yi still doesn't know what he can get in this lottery, he thinks it won't be too bad.

After all, with the current production level of Daxia, no matter what it is, it is a good thing for him.

"Send an order. Without an order, all units cannot open fire! The troops surrounding the east bank should be careful not to be exposed in advance!" Lin Yi said to Fang Zhong without looking back.

"Yes!" Fang Zhong saluted Lin Yi and immediately ran to the side to send messages to various ministries.

The soldiers of the new first division on the west bank and the east bank heard the order and further hid their figures. They did not dare to disobey Lin Yi's order at this time.

White rested for an hour before leading the coalition soldiers to the east bank.

They unscrupulously built artillery positions right under the eyes of the soldiers of the newly formed First Division on the West Bank.

It has to be said that the Kingdom of John and the Kingdom of Gaul are still rich.

There are more than [-] soldiers, and hundreds of artillery pieces are installed.

If it were Daxia's other teams, if they encountered this coalition, they would definitely be defeated again without even thinking about it.

But unfortunately, the more than [-] coalition soldiers encountered Lin Yi's new first division.

"Fang Zhong, order the artillery regiment, give me an opportunity to destroy the opponent's artillery position!" Lin Yi said without looking back, holding up a telescope and hiding in the command room to look at the coalition positions in the distance.

"Yes!" Fang Zhong returned quickly.
