Chapter 734 Battle of Muhavez Fortress 1
After Dmitry received the news that the Britannian army had landed in the Bleu Water Port, he immediately sent a messenger to report the matter to the front-line army located in the Eghar Corridor, and asked Dominic to lead troops back to the rescue immediately.
After receiving this news, Dominic hurriedly summoned all the senior generals under his command to discuss.
"I really didn't expect that the Knights of Michael would attack Bishui Port across the sea and successfully landed in the rear of us." Dominic's face turned pale, "It's so amazing... Su Cheng, he could actually think of attacking us behind us by sea."
"Chief Coach!"
At this time, a senior general was removed from the list.
"We'd better distribute some of our troops to return to the rescue! Muhavic Fortress must not be missed!"
Everyone present was a senior general in the Sheeran army and a handful of elites. Therefore, they all knew very well that if the Michael Knights landed behind them, the most priority and most worthy of attack was where the target was.
It must be Muhavic Fortress!
If any of them came to command the Britannian army behind them, they would choose to use the Muhavic Fortress as their primary offensive target.
Not only that, they also knew very well what kind of rear would be if the Muhavic Fortress was missing.
All kinds of baggage transported from all over the rear must be transported into the Eghar Corridor through the Muhavic Fortress to replenish the nearly 300,000 front-line troops in the corridor.
If the Muhaviz Fortress is missing, their supply line will be cut off and they will not be able to obtain any supplies in the Eighar corridor where birds do not shit!
The current situation is very urgent and critical.
At this time of life and death, Dominic made a quick decision:
"Divide the troops! Split 100,000 troops back to the Muhavits Fortress! The remaining troops stayed in place and continued to confront Avalon Fortress!"
With Dominic's order, the previous offensive against Avalon Fortress was reduced by 30,000 people and could not be replenished in time. At present, the front-line army, which only 270,000 people remained, quickly moved.
100,000 people were assigned to return to the Muhavic Fortress, and the remaining 170,000 remained in place and continued to confront the defenders in the Avalon Fortress.
The 100,000 troops returning to the Muhavic Fortress were personally commanded by Dominic and returned to the north at the speed of a marching force. However, as soon as the journey was halfway through, bad news suddenly came.
The scouts in the Muhavic Fortress quickly reported Malay, with a disheveled face and a dusty face, kneeling in front of Dominic:
"Master! The big thing is wrong! The Britannian army arrived at the city of Muhavits Fortress in the early morning of the day before yesterday. The fortress... has fallen..."
"ah……"
Dominic felt as if he was struck by lightning when he heard this, and accidentally fell from the saddle.
"Coach! Coach! Are you okay?" The guards beside Dominic reacted quickly, turned over and dismounted as quickly as possible, and then helped Dominic up.
"Early morning of the day before yesterday?! The Fortress of Muhavits was captured in the early morning of the day before yesterday?!"
Dominic was anxious and angry, wanting to curse and cry, he pulled out the sword at his waist and chopped on a big rock beside him, and let out a long roar to the sky, wanting to cry without tears.
At this moment, Dominic suddenly remembered an important thing.
"Where is Your Majesty?!"
Dominic quickly asked the scout.
"What's wrong with Your Majesty? Did Your Majesty escape from the fortress?"
"When the fortress fell, the situation was too chaotic. I don't know if His Majesty successfully escaped from the fortress..."
After learning that Vahiri didn't know how to live or die, Dominic's face turned pale.
The Muhaviz Fortress fell and led his troops back to the fortress. The plan to block the Britannian army landing behind them was still alive.
The situation worsened.
And it has deteriorated to the point where it cannot worsen.
After venting for a brief moment, Dominic quickly ordered the marching to suspend and summon all senior generals to come quickly to discuss countermeasures.
In the big tent, the atmosphere was serious and heavy.
Everyone lowered their heads slightly, their faces turned pale.
Dominic, sitting in the main seat, looked at the map spread in front of them, not wanting to cry or roar.
"The Muhavitz Fortress fell early the morning before yesterday, and the Muhavitz Fortress received news that the Britannian army had landed in the rear, which was almost the early morning before yesterday."
"In other words... the Muhavits Fortress received the news that the Britannian army had landed in the Birthwater Port, and the Knights of Michael were already at the city..."
Dominic held his forehead, steadily shaking his body, and continued to moan:
"How could it be... It's too fast... It took only 5 and a half days to run the 400 miles of distance, traveling more than 70 miles a day... This, this..."
"The fortress fell, the supply line was cut off, Your Majesty did not know life or death... This is really..."
Dominic punched the wooden table in front of him, and couldn't help but burst into tears when he thought of the capture of the Muhaviz Fortress.
Faced with the current sharp turn of decline and extremely critical situation, even a veteran like Dominic, who has experienced many battles, can't help but feel sad.
Although the big tent was filled with a stove, making the whole tent very warm, Dominic felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and the warm heat around him could not warm up his body.
"Chief Coach..." At this moment, a senior general quickly whispered, "Chief Coach, the situation is critical. Our army has not yet reached a situation of losing. It is not a time for despair. Please cheer up your spirits, work with your colleagues, and turn the tide."
"Yes, coach, please cheer up!"
"Coach! It's not time to despair yet!"
...
All the senior generals in the tent spoke out to encourage Dominic and also encourage themselves.
Faced with such a critical situation, everyone present felt helpless and desperate, so they could only speak out to encourage Dominic while also encouraging themselves.
As time passed, Dominic's emotions finally calmed down.
We began to issue orders to the senior generals in front of us, preparing to gain a glimmer of hope for the nearly 300,000 army in the Eighar Corridor.
"The first priority at the moment is to regain the Muhavic Fortress and reopen the supply line."
"So there is no need to confront the defenders of Avalon Fortress,
"The 170,000 troops left on the front line will be sent to the whole army with all the siege equipment to retreat north and meet with us."
"At the same time, count the current reserves of consumables such as food and forage in the army."
"We must regain the Muhaviz Fortress before we consume all the food, forage and other consumables stored in the army! Open up the supply line again!"
Chapter completed!
