Germanic Empire: Please call me Wilhelm III
Chapter 146
The Germanic Empire attacked the Kingdom of Biliz in a big way, which immediately shocked both the Gallic Kingdom and the Empire of the Sunset.
The commander of the Gallic Congress, Raymondpuencaré, and the Chief of the General Staff of the Gallic State, General Xia Fei, held urgent deliberations and quickly made a decision.
Both Raymondpuencaré and Admiral Xiafei believed that the Germanic Empire could never be allowed to conquer the Kingdom of Bilis, and that the war must be kept out of Gaul.
If war breaks out in the Kingdom of Bilis. Then the Gallic state will not be affected much. Gaul could continuously mobilize more troops to enter the battlefield. At the same time, the industry of Gaul will also operate at full capacity, producing a large number of weapons and equipment.
Once the war reached the mainland of Gaul, the consequences were very serious.
The land of Gaul will be scorched and the cities of Gaul will be bombed into ruins. Large numbers of people will die as a result of the war.
Admiral Xia Fei ordered the 1st and 2nd armies assembled on the border to immediately go to the territory of the Kingdom of Biliz to fight. At the same time, the 3rd Army, the 4th Army and the 5th Army gathered on the northern border of Gaul, ready to reinforce the Kingdom of Billis.
Moreover, in order to be able to defeat the Germanic Empire in this war, the Gauls were also mobilizing with all their might.
The 6th Army , the 7th Army , the 8th Army , the 9th Army , and the 10th Army were all rapidly being formed.
A large number of young people are being mobilized into the army, and one army after another is rapidly being formed, armed, quickly completed training and thrown into the battlefield.
At the same time, the Sun Never Sets Empire also reacted.
The Sun Never Set Empire was originally worried that the strength of the Gallic Kingdom and the Kingdom of Biliz alone would not be able to withstand the attack of the Germanic Empire. Once the Gallic kingdom is defeated, the Sun Never Set Empire will be alone and can only be trapped in the mainland.
Marshal John French, commander of the Imperial Expeditionary Force, led the 1st Army of the Expeditionary Force to Gaul to support the Gauls and Billians against the Germanic attack.
At the same time, the 2nd Army and the 3rd Army of the Expeditionary Force will also quickly go to Gaul.
After the Germanic Empire invaded the territory of the Kingdom of Bilis, it took only one day to reach the fortress of Liège.
More than 100,000 remnants of the Belisse army were defeated, and all retreated into the fortifications of the fortress of Liège, trying to use the fortress to resist the attack of the Germanic Empire. At the same time, reinforcements from the Beliz Army were also gathering around the fortress of Liège.
On August 11, General Hausen, commander of the 4th Army of the Germanic Army, and Duke Württemberg, commander of the 5th Army, met in front of the fortress of Liège.
As for the 6th Army, under the leadership of Prince Ruprecht, it launched an attack on the southern area of the fortress of Liège.
“Your Excellency, the people of Bilischer have high hopes for this fortress! The main part of the fortress is almost all poured with reinforced concrete. Moreover, the main part is still hidden underground. If we want to destroy this fortress, I’m afraid it won’t be so easy! Admiral Hausen had a serious expression.
Although, the Germanic Imperial Army gathered heavy troops and strove to conquer the fortress of Liège in one fell swoop.
However, if the price was too high in the process of attacking this fortress, it would not be in the interests of the Germanic Empire.
“Your Excellency General, it will not be difficult for us to capture the fortress of Liège. His Majesty the Emperor has ordered the heavy artillery units to assemble. It’s just that we have to complete the operational plan drawn up by the General Staff, so we need to slow down the offensive for the time being. The Duke of Württemberg replied.
Admiral Hausen nodded.
“Then let’s launch an appropriate attack, create a tense atmosphere, let the enemy’s reinforcements constantly gather around the fortress of Liège, and create favorable conditions for other troops!” Admiral Hausen said.
The Duke of Württemberg naturally had no objection to this.
On the afternoon of August 11, the 4th and 5th Armies of the Germanic Imperial Army laid siege to the fortress of Liège.
The two armies concentrated more than 2,000 guns and focused on attacking the fortifications around the main fortress of the fortress of Liège.
Although, the defense of the fortress of Liège was strong. However, when the Germanic Imperial Army gathered a huge artillery fire to attack, it was still unable to resist.
One after another, defensive forts were destroyed, and machine-gun pillboxes and the like were blown up into the sky.
One after another, elite Germanic army units, supported by their own strong artillery fire, launched an attack on the fortress of Liège.
“Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
The artillery deployed on the fortress of Liège was also fiercely returning fire.
The counterattack of the Billis, of course, caused certain losses to the Germanic Imperial Army. However, the losses were very limited.
The peripheral fortresses of the fortress of Liège continued to fall under the fierce attack of the Germanic Imperial Army.
“Boom! Rumble! ”
The mortars of the attacking forces opened fire continuously, providing direct fire support for the infantry of the Germanic Empire.
These mortars, though unable to destroy the fortified fortresses and fortifications of the Bilis, were not able to destroy the Bilis. However, this kind of firepower, which can be distorted, is very easy to deal with machine-gun pillboxes.
This allowed a large number of machine-gun pillboxes built by the Billians to be destroyed almost without much effect.
Otherwise, the Germanic Imperial Army would have to pay a very heavy price if it wanted to destroy the Bilis’ defenses.
Under the fierce attack of the Germanic Imperial Army, the losses of the Billier Army were increasing.
With the fall of a large number of peripheral defense lines, the remnants of the army could only retreat to the main fortifications of the Liège fortress, and resist the attack of the Germanic Empire with the help of strong fortifications.
“Your Excellency Commander, the Germanic firepower is too fierce, and we have suffered great losses. The perimeter defense line could no longer hold up, and it would be completely occupied by the Germans in two days at most. If it goes on like this, even if the main structure of the Liège Fortress has strong defense, I am afraid it will not last too long! A Billies Army general looked worried.
“Our reinforcements will soon arrive, let them build a defensive line behind the fortress of Liège, ready to withstand the attack of the Germans after the fall of the fortress!” The commander of the fortress of Liège, Lieutenant General Gilad Leman, had a serious expression.
“Yes, Your Excellency Commander! However, the Germans were menacing, gathering hundreds of thousands of troops. With our troops alone, I’m afraid we can’t resist it! “The generals are still worried.
“The Gauls and the Empire have already sent reinforcements, and we will soon have enough troops to withstand the attack of the Germans!” Lieutenant General Gillard Lehmann is confident.
