Chapter 264 The Battle of Urla
Several hours had passed after Deng Jiaer successfully captured the Simeon Army's position, led his troops south across the Shunau River, and arrived at the south bank of the Shunau River.
The eastern battlefield, the central battlefield, the western battlefield, no matter which battlefield it was in the "Summer Wind" offensive, no one should have expected it at this time.
Just in the early morning of July 18, just a few hours after a large-scale surprise attack in Dengjiaer in the eastern battlefield, another large-scale battle broke out in the central battlefield!
Albert and Barr finally had their first head-to-head confrontation since the start of the "Xia Feng" offensive!
…
July 18, 290 in the Imperial Calendar of the Britannia Empire.
10:48 am.
Within the Luolin Empire, Urla Plain.
After joining forces with Alyssa's vanguard, Albert took command of the total combat power of the center army and drove straight to where Baal and the main force of the Luo Lin Army under his command were located.
Unexpectedly, when Albert led the central army towards Barr, Barr also led the large army and drove straight towards Albert.
The two armies and horses marched straight towards each other.
Just yesterday, that is, in the afternoon of July 17th, the middle route army commanded by Albert and the main force of the Rollin Army commanded by Barr finally arrived at a place called "Urla Plain" in the Rollin Empire.
encounter!
However, even though the two armies encountered each other on such a wide plain, the two armies did not immediately start fighting.
Instead, they separated themselves at a certain distance with a tacit understanding, and then each set up camp.
Both Albert and Barr are well-known veterans with rich combat experience.
Therefore, both of them knew that it was almost evening and starting a war at this time would only bring trouble to themselves.
In addition, both of their troops were a little tired due to traveling problems at this time, and were not suitable for starting a battle immediately.
Therefore, after the two met on the Urla Plain, they had a tacit understanding to stop the entire army's advance and prohibit the attack, and then each began to set up camp.
The two armies spent a quiet night together in a very strange way, without any smell of blood.
However, the next morning, when the sun just rose today, the atmosphere of the entire Urla Plain changed instantly!
When the two armies first encountered each other on July 17, the Urla Plain was still shrouded in an eerie silence.
In the early morning of July 18, the atmosphere in Urla Plain immediately became tense!
When the sun just rose from the horizon and the first ray of sunlight shone on the Urla Plain, the Albert Army's camp immediately started operating!
One after another, the soldiers put on their equipment and wore helmets and armor and ran out of the military camp.
The 60,000-strong army quickly formed Albert's best attack formation!
Albert was a man with a unique military style. He was best at attacking and commanding cavalry!
In any battle commanded by Albert, he would often launch the first attack!
And this time the "Battle of Urla" with Baal was no exception.
When the sun just rose, Albert eagerly commanded the entire army to form his best attack formation!
When the camp on the Albert Army's side began to operate, the camp on the Barr Army's side also began to operate rapidly at almost the same time!
However, unlike the Albert Army, the Barr Army quickly formed a defensive formation!
The two armies just formed formations with different styles.
Then, the two armies formed their formations almost at the same time with great tacit understanding.
The next moment after forming the attack formation, Albert waved the knight sword in his hand without hesitation and ordered the troops to start attacking!
Naturally, the 60,000-strong army will not all press forward to attack.
In the first wave of attacks, Albert only dispatched 40,000 troops.
The 40,000-strong army, which had formed an attack formation, rushed towards the Barr Army with terrifying momentum!
However, the defensive formation formed by the Barr Army was not made in vain.
Even though the attack momentum of this 40,000-strong army was very terrifying, it was still blocked by the Baal Army who had set up a defensive formation!
The two armies and horses started a fierce battle on the bright morning of July 18th!
This is also the largest battle among the three fronts since the start of the "Xia Feng" offensive!
The Britannian Army, which was fiercely attacking, and the Luolin Army, which was actively defending, fell into a panic in the first wave of battle.
…
Albert, with an expressionless face, was riding his horse on a high ground in the Britannian Army's position in the Urla Plain.
The geographical location of this highland is very good, and you can see the entire battle situation from here.
Albert only left 20,000 troops here as reserves for use. The remaining 40,000 troops, under his order just now, launched a fierce attack on the Barr Army!
Nearly 40 minutes have passed since Albert let this 40,000-strong army begin the attack.
Even though more than 40 minutes have passed, the battle situation is still tense.
According to Albert's estimate, the Barr Army now has about 70,000 people.
In terms of total military strength, it is not much different from the 60,000 people he currently commands.
Just as Albert's army set up an attack formation, Barr's army also set up a defensive formation.
Albert and Barr are also old rivals, so they both know a lot about each other's fighting styles.
Albert knew very well that this was actually one of Barr's best tactics.
Balta likes and is best at fighting in the wild. He first sets up a defensive formation to withstand the enemy's attack. When the enemy's momentum is almost reduced, he then launches an attack.
In other words, Barr is also a warrior who is very good at defense.
Under the command of Barr, the 70,000 Rolling Army formed a defensive formation and withstood the fierce attack of the 40,000 Britannia Army.
No matter how bravely these 40,000 Britannian troops advanced, they could not break through the defense of the Barr army.
The battle situation became tense.
Moreover, as time goes by, the situation will become increasingly unfavorable to the Britannian army.
Because the 40,000-strong army that launched the first attack has slowly begun to lose momentum as time goes by.
At the beginning, he could still launch powerful attacks, but now his attacks are getting weaker and weaker.
And all of this was seen by Albert, who stood on the high ground and had been watching the battle silently.
Albert, who had fought with Barr for more than ten times, knew that if this continued, after the momentum of the 40,000 troops further subsided, Barr would launch a counterattack!
However, even though the current situation was gradually becoming unfavorable to the Britannian army, Albert still looked normal and was still observing the battle situation quietly.
Albert's sharp vision swept across the distant battlefield one by one.
