Chapter 431 Battle for Revenge

In response to the revenge battle of the orcs attacking Xingang, the Supreme Command of the Holy Sword Empire finally came up with a plan through careful discussion and research. This unprecedented battle, with a large number of troops and a large scale, and the comprehensiveness of the arms involved, has become the most spectacular unprecedented battle in human history.

First of all, the army was under the command of Edward* and Queen Doris. The army attack cluster had a total of 121 divisions, 1.815 million, equipped with about 3700 tanks, more than 13,000 magic cannons, more than 8,000 trucks, and more than 900 armored reconnaissance vehicles, with a total of more than 210,000 riders. Soldier, more than 30,000 unicorn knights.

Among them, human troops include the 11th Army Group under the command of Major General Hawke, with 17 divisions, more than 230,000 people (some troops are not satisfied), and 21 divisions of the 3rd Army Group under Edward*'s personal command, a total of 290,000 people (also some troops are not full).

Although human troops have been unprecedentedly strengthened in number, most of the troops are temporarily expanded light infantry divisions. These divisions are almost traditional infantry units, and a small number of them do not even have magic cannons. These troops were purely pushed to the front line "death" by Akado's crazy expansion.

This unit was responsible for pushing south from the tributary of the Ladora River, taking Weilun, the southwest traffic town of the Elf Forest, and defeating the possible reinforcements of the orcs along Booker City, and then rushing to Arihar, finally recapture the largest city in the southwest of the Elf, and compressing the orcs in Yak City and Duoduo. The front line of Sicheng.

Due to the failure of the navy in the Kamikaze Strait and the rescue operation of Xingang, most of the navy of the Holy Sword Empire were concentrated near Rome Island and Port Dante. Therefore, this battle will make full use of the naval advantage and make a forced landing near Doyle Harbor. The navy will complete an independent landing operation and threaten Erreyhar while eliminating the orc coastal guards.

This landing will take the lead in attracting the main orc troops in the elf forest to give up the Ladora River defense line and force the orc troops to move away from the defense position, so as to facilitate the frontal army forces to carry out annihilation operations.

For this reason, the navy concentrated 317 combat ships of various types under Shawn's command, accounting for 95% of the total strength of the navy. The landing force consists of 45,000 of 3 Marine divisions, and the new 317th Armored Division of the Army, and the 319th Infantry Division, with a total of 50,000 (the new 3rd Division is the number of the unit commanded by Tessa before his death, so it is the main force and seriously exceeded the standard, with about 20,000 soldiers).

These troops have 1,700 tanks, 2,400 magic guns, about 2,000 trucks, and more than 300 armored vehicles, which are very close to full staff compared with the armored divisions on the Eastern Front.

This huge landing force was transported by more than 3490 transport ships of the Sword Empire. In preparation for this landing, the Sword Empire even suspended the civil affairs department's grain transportation plan on Rome Island.

In addition, the Sword Empire requisitioned 4,000 civilian sailboats and transported a total of 120,000 newly formed light infantry divisions at the same time.

The landing operation will send a total of more than 510,000 troops, which is the largest cross-sea battle in human history. The landing plan was named "Operation Overlord" by Arcado.

In order to ensure the safety of this landing and land advance, Arcado sacrificed the big killer of the Holy Sword Empire, the air force that has been hidden in the snow.

The secret air force of the Sword Empire has concentrated all the combat troops for this operational plan, and the whole army is preparing for this appearance.

The Air Force Command of the Sword Empire even abandoned their plan to participate in the expansion war of the Eastern Front, which opened up enough power for the recovery of the Elf Forest.

On 144 front-line airports, 5 aviation destroyers, 3 aviation sabotage divisions, and a total of more than 2200 combat aircraft of various models have been prepared for battle. These combat aircraft will ensure the air superiority over the * Elf Forest, completely defeat the Orc Air Force Flying Dragon Force, and gain an advantage. In the case of air control, destroy all ground targets they see.

Wellen City and Booker City will become the strategic targets of the air force's priority destruction. In addition, with the development of the battle, the air force will be responsible for destroying the enemy counterattack forces gathered in the rear.

700,000 tons of aviation bombs were transported to the Elf Forest by naval transport ships and trains. These aviation bombs with higher production have achieved amazing production in the production process because they are more convenient to manufacture than magic shells. In factories in five important industrial provinces behind the Holy Sword Empire, thousands of such military products are pushed into trucks and sent to railway stations every day.

The Elf Forest is also doing its best to cooperate with the Air Force. For this super-scale counterattack plan, the Elf Forest has concentrated the only remaining eagle army in their hands. About 1,700 bald eagle knights will be responsible for the continuous air control and completely control of the sky of the Elf Forest.

This time, the whole Elf Forest attack plan is called the "Nivesis Project". The whole "Nenve Goddess Plan" will start with the "Thunder Action" of the Air Force, start at the same time, and finally end with the "Queen's Retalion Operation" that captures Ariel.

For this all-round war, the Sword Empire and the Elf Forest have gathered more than 2.3 million troops (including naval and air force ground personnel), prepared 3.9 million magic cannonballs (400,000 naval large-caliber magic guide guns), 300,000 tons of aviation bombs, a total of 1 million 300 kg bombs, and 400,000 tons of other types of bombs.

At the same time, more than 20 million tons of various types of power magic crystals were used to reserve, and more than 300 million gold coins were prepared for the whole battle, 330,000 reservists were mobilized, 470,000 mules and horses were transported, and 4.93 million civilians were mobilized to support. The Nemesis Plan used resources to occupy the war potential of the Sword Empire and the Elf Forest. 54% and 87% respectively.

At the beginning of the 4th year of the Gregorian calendar, the orcs were also carefully preparing for the battle of the elf forest, where the orcs gathered 1.5 million troops, and then transferred 200,000 elite troops in their own country, which made the total strength of the orc empire in the elf forest occupied area also reach a staggering 1.75 million. This force is large Some of them are in carefully prepared fortifications, waiting for the counterattack of humans and elves. They are confident that they will completely drag down their opponents with a quagmire-like war in the new year.

It can be said that this war that broke out at the beginning of the 4th year of the Gregorian calendar is a strategic decisive battle between the Sword Empire and the Elf Forest and the Orc Empire.
