Chapter 1711 The Might of the Guards
Fleschheim is leading his Royal Guard in a rampage through Nanxun City.
The security forces amassed a large number of personnel, intending to engage the Imperial Guard in a fierce battle.
But the result was that they were overwhelmed and beaten by the Imperial Guards.
Initially, the Imperial Guard used its armored forces to overwhelm the security forces.
However, the security forces were not to be underestimated. After suffering the attack, they immediately mobilized their men to form a defensive perimeter in the north.
They built fortresses using the gaps between streets.
While these barriers could not stop the advance of the Guards infantry, they were effective in slowing down the advance of armored forces.
Because Baroqueley had already sent them a message.
Tell them to hold their ground; reinforcements will arrive soon.
Baroquely called the commander of the infantry regiment in the south. Upon receiving the news, the commander immediately decided to go to Nanxun City to rescue the emperor, but the outcome was far from satisfactory.
The regimental commander repeatedly urged his men to prepare for battle, but the battalion commander directly questioned him.
Why are we going to Nanxun City?
The battalion commander's words put the regimental commander in a very difficult position.
The commander couldn't find a reason to command his men, because he really had no reasonable reason to do so; his men were simply a group of staunch red warriors.
The reason why some of the national defense forces were able to be corrupted was because the ideological education at the time was of uneven quality.
Many members of the National Defense Forces are opportunists.
But things are different now. With those opportunistic national defense forces squeezed out, the overall quality of national defense has improved dramatically.
There are even quite a few high-quality military personnel who have retired.
As the quality of the armed forces improves, the chances of them being deceived decrease.
The captain wanted to lead his men to help Baroquelie.
However, the deputy commander and political commissar held him down.
The deputy commander also received some money, but he didn't dare to actually take action.
Just because he received the money doesn't mean he'll actually do it.
You, Baroqueley, are a mayor, that's true, but I'm also a deputy commander. Who's afraid of who?
You may rule your own Nanxun City, but you can't control our army.
Furthermore, the deputy commander hid all the money after receiving it.
It wasn't that he didn't want to hand it over, but that he simply couldn't do so at the moment; doing so would attract the attention of Baroquelie's spies.
Once you're targeted by a scoundrel like Baroquely, you'll be powerless to control your own destiny.
As for the political commissar, he is absolutely impossible to bribe.
These political commissars were directly trained by military academies.
He went straight to his unit after leaving.
There was absolutely no desire for material things.
Their only concern was building a better country.
Upon learning that the infantry regiment could not provide support, Baroquely swept the table in front of him clean.
"Why? I bribe them with so much money every reading day, but when it comes to crucial moments, they're unwilling to lend a helping hand!"
Baroquely was furious and impotent, and at the same time tried every means to mobilize his troops.
He had only 1800 secret men.
These 1800 men were originally his last trump card.
But now, let alone revealing our trump cards, if we don't show them soon, we'll be torn to pieces by the Imperial Guard.
To be fair, these security forces are indeed very capable fighters.
Baroquelie paid them enough money, so naturally they would fight for Baroquelie to the very end.
The security forces displayed formidable combat power, leaving the rapidly advancing security forces dumbfounded.
Although they were puzzled, they were greatly shocked.
Because they simply couldn't understand why these security forces were so determined.
Even Fleschheim, who was in command, was starting to panic.
"Reporting to the regimental commander, the 3rd Battalion's attack has been thwarted. They are unable to break through the street fortifications built by the security forces. There are approximately 200 security forces entrenched on Fourth Street. They have constructed numerous bunkers on the street and occupied the buildings on both sides of the road, creating numerous firing ports inside the buildings. Our infantry launched an attack and suffered heavy casualties."
The chief of staff, holding the latest intelligence, marked a portion of the area on the map and explained the details to Freistheim.
"Then they will send armored units to cover the infantry's advance. We must break through the defenses, meet up with our comrades from the intelligence agency, and take down Baroqueley together."
Dawn is approaching. If we fail to capture Baroqueley before dawn, the entire city of Nanxun will descend into chaos, and all our efforts will be in vain.
Fleishman's words were not unfounded, because as the largest port city, Nanxun City was no less valuable or politically significant than the capital.
That's why Lyon was so eager to send his Royal Guard south for a swift blitzkrieg.
Only in this way can the impact be minimized.
At first, Freistheim was afraid that armored forces would destroy the city.
That's why he ordered his men to fight on foot as much as possible, instead of using armored units for a rapid advance.
But there's no time to worry about that now. According to the latest news, Baroquely has somehow conjured up an army of a thousand men and has already blocked the intelligence agency's surprise attack.
Intelligence agents' raid on the Baroquelie mansion was thwarted.
It has now been returned to Sixth Street.
Meanwhile, the fifth and seventh streets next to the sixth street were still under the control of the security forces.
The closest unit to the Sixth Street was the Third Battalion, which had just captured the Third Street.
Furthermore, the Third Battalion's attack on Fourth Street was thwarted, and now the intelligence agency agents are trapped on Sixth Street.
Moreover, all of Baroquelie's henchmen who were arrested by the intelligence agency are being held on Sixth Street.
If Baroqueley's soldiers were to take Sixth Street, all the intelligence agency's efforts would be in vain.
Therefore, they must defend Sixth Street!
Once Fleschheim understood this, he immediately ordered the political commissar and chief of staff to take charge of the overall situation, while he himself went to the front line to prepare to lead the 3rd Battalion in a fierce attack.
He had to break through the defense as quickly as possible.
This was not only because he wanted to make a contribution, but also because he wanted to prove himself.
He wanted people to talk about him not just because he was William's brother.
It's because Fleschheim has an older brother named William!
(Good night)
