The Revolutionary Era in One Piece

Chapter 147 Encounter on a narrow road

The Marines, who had the advantage in numbers, collapsed on the battlefield, and the victorious Red Flag Army soldiers began to beat the fallen. The Navy officer who was still in confrontation had to retreat when he saw this. Before leaving, he looked at the opponent who had just restrained him with hatred, as if to say that he was lucky this time.

The party members who were fighting with him could no longer pursue him. He had also tried his best in the battle with the elite navy officer, and he was very tired both mentally and physically. Now he could not put his remaining energy into the pursuit, but had to rest well, because the next wave of the navy's attack could come at any time.

Fortunately, some Red Flag Army soldiers have recovered, and now the number of defenders on the position has reached nearly a hundred. If the navy attacks on this scale again, I believe they will be able to survive the next offensive.

As long as they can hold off a few more waves of attacks, I believe most of the Red Flag Army soldiers in the position will be able to recover, and then they will be able to completely hold the position. But will the navy really give them a chance to hold on?

The naval officers who retired from the front line immediately found the headquarters of the naval landing force, which was composed of several naval colonels with the highest ranks and most seniority.

As soon as they arrived at the headquarters, the frontline officers who had just retired reported the strength of the Red Flag Army in the position to the officers and officers at the headquarters. After all, the ranks of the officers who participated in the Demon Slayer Order were basically earned through actual fighting on the battlefield, and it was still possible to judge the strength of the enemy through fighting.

"Although we don't know the reason, the lack of defensive forces on the enemy's position is real. We should change our tactics, readjust the army's offensive formation, and defeat the bandit army above in one go." The front-line officers gave their own suggestions.

"No, it's not possible. If we adjust the formation now, it will take too long and it will only give the enemy a chance to repair their defenses." The most experienced general retorted.

"Otherwise, we can just march in directly. Without organizing the battle formation, we can just rely on our human advantage to defeat the enemy." An officer nearby suggested.

"This is even worse. Haven't we learned a lesson from the previous attack? Troops without formation will be defeated at the first blow on the battlefield. No matter what method of attack we use, the formation must not be messed up." The general retorted.

"Then how about speeding up the frequency of each batch of troops' attacks? As long as each attacking unit leaves a certain amount of space for retreat, this will solve the problem of the front army's collapse spreading to the entire army.

Moreover, this can also give full play to our numerical advantage, and we can launch rounds of attacks. Humph, let's see how those red bandits will resist then." It was the officer coming down from the front who made the suggestion.

"Well, let's follow your advice and notify the follow-up troops to speed up the attack." The leading officer finalized the plan. "By the way, the word 'red bandits' you just mentioned is quite appropriate. I think these bandits are pirates flying red flags, and they can only deceive the ignorant people at the bottom."

(PS: You may ask why the navy did not implement more advanced tactics, such as dividing the troops into several groups, quickly deploying the troops, etc. There is no way, the navy does not have that strength, and the organizational level of the semi-feudal and semi-slave army is just like this. By the way, the reason why the navy was punished to stand in the square and suffer the earthquake during the Battle of Marineford has also been found. It's not that the Warring States didn't want to, but maybe the navy simply didn't have the organizational ability to implement tactics.

To be honest, Zhan Guo is still a bit smart, he also used the counter-espionage strategy and the siege wall. Maybe it was the organizational strength of the navy that made him give up more sophisticated tactics. Because Zhan Guo's wonderful ideas have never been used in commanding a large army. Alas, he still relies too much on the ability of the strong, just like the underworld leading his brothers to fight. Whether the fight will be won or not, in the end it all depends on the deterrent power of the leader. )

Since there was no need to change the attack formation, the second wave of the Navy's attack began soon after the command was issued. In contrast, during the short period of discussion by the Navy's officers, the Red Flag Army was also ready to respond.

The situation this time was also different from the first attack by the navy. At that time, the defending Red Flag Army had just recovered and immediately joined the battle. However, the defenders on this position had already made preparations for defense.

In a very short time, the Red Flag Army re-arranged its defense line. Using the well-trained three-three tactics, less than a hundred Red Flag Army soldiers covered a large front.

When the navy was fully within range, they were faced with overwhelming fire from the Red Flag Army. With the support of the three-three system, the Red Flag Army displayed a momentum several times greater than its true strength.

As expected, the second wave of the navy's offensive was dispersed before it even approached the position. Dozens of sailors were killed or injured, and the remaining marines retreated in panic.

Just when the Red Flag Army thought that the second wave of offensive was over, the navy's third wave of offensive arrived quietly.

This time, the navy took advantage of the time when the Red Flag Army was slightly relaxed and changing ammunition, and quickly broke through to a place not far from the position. Moreover, in addition to the original third batch of troops, the navy that retreated from the first batch also joined in the attack.

So, with the first batch of experienced navy leading, the navy successfully launched an attack on the weak point of the position. Although the Red Flag Army discovered the navy's intention, it was too late. The navy officers took the lead, relying on their extraordinary strength, they successfully tore through the front position.

Following closely behind the naval officers, a large number of naval soldiers also broke through the position. At this point, the Red Flag Army had no choice but to face the enemy head-on again due to their numerical disadvantage, and a more brutal hand-to-hand combat broke out.

While the two armies were fighting fiercely on the front battlefield, at the same time, on the other side of the sea, another crucial battle between the Red Flag Army and the Navy entered a white-hot stage.

"Alara, you're really dangerous. You've actually reached the level of 'life restoration'. But, this level can't deal with me." Aokiji, who was hit in the battle, teased.

Aokiji's arm, which had just been cut off by the sword girl, was re-elemented and reattached to his body. So far in the battle, Aokiji has not yet fully exerted his strength, especially his ice fruit ability, which has not been used on a large scale in the battle.

"This is really a headache. If we want to end the battle quickly, we have to use the power of the fruit to its full potential. But if we use that trick, the navy ship itself won't be able to escape. There's no other way. It seems we can only continue to fight." Aokiji muttered to himself in front of his opponent.

"Maybe, but your arrogance will eventually bring you bad consequences." Daomei said, and at this time, she was surrounded by flying blades, and it can be said that she had already brought out her best skills. However, Daomei's words seemed to have other implications, which also made Aokiji feel irritated.

"Then come on, let me see if you can pass this level of mine." Aokiji looked at the people who had gathered around him, namely Gus, Sauro, Sword Girl, and Garen, "If you are all here, then no one can shake the navy's warships."

The people on the opposite side looked at each other after hearing this, and their hearts were moved, "That's not certain. It's still unknown who will win."

While the navy was confronting the Red Flag Fleet, a small fleet of light ships was rapidly approaching from behind the navy fleet.
