C2567 Soldiers at the borders of the Bavaria (2/2)
”After receiving the order, the 2nd Regiment of the 3rd Army set off immediately at 10.30 am, marching urgently into the Sur region …”
”Have the Janissaries arrived in Berlin? Do not rest, there is no time for them to eat lunch, immediately go forward, and directly attack the border fortress of Bavaria! ”
”Take action now! Take action now!” Delaying the implementation of the military laws of the empire! ”
These Berlin Guards who had just jumped off the train did not even have time to drink a mouthful of hot soup before they received the order to march. Although there were not many guards, he was the symbol of the Empire, and the commanders wanted to place these twenty thousand people directly in front of them, and directly rush into the border town of the Bavaria, the Coburg Fortress!
He believed that when the flag of the imperial guards fluttered outside the walls of the city, this mad king of the Bavaria would definitely feel the pressure from the Prussians!
The harsh military training had turned every single soldier in the Prussian Empire into an emotionless machine part. Every single one of them could not speak or complain!
They marched south in long queues, and on both sides of the road a quartermaster led the local people to distribute bread to some of the distant soldiers.
A spoonful of butter was added to the rough black bread. This was their lunch! The road was dusty and the soldiers wolfed down their dry bread.
However, no one dared to complain. The army of ten thousand people was like a gigantic and sophisticated machine, advancing forward without any emotion.
30 kilometers to the south was the Coburg Castle, which was the frontline of the Bavaria's response to the Prussian threat. There was a famous military fortress in Germany, and that was the Coburg Fort.
The famous German military bunker, built in the 13th century, stood between the Tulingen Forest and the Mynn Canyon. Its strategic position was very important, and it controlled the most important main road in the Tulingen Mountains.
Once this place was lost, the Prussian army would be able to rush straight into the Nuremberg. This was the second largest city in Bavaria, if the Nuremberg was lost, half of them would die.
The garrison of the fortress had received the latest telegram yesterday evening. They already knew that over a hundred thousand Prussian soldiers were approaching them under the banner of a military exercise!
Although they were all of the same race, the Prussian had the nickname of Military Madman. Who knew what these fanatical militants would do to break the rules! Once the gun went off, could the seven or eight thousand garrison troops of the castle block it?
No one dared to answer this question, and no one was sure!
Every minute and every second was torture for these defenders. From the moment they heard the news, everyone's heart was in their throats. No one dared to rest, as everyone's eyes were as wide as cow-bells, constantly staring at the endless forest in the north.
Suddenly, a sharp-eyed soldier pointed towards the forest and shouted in a trembling voice, ”Flying birds! Everyone, look! Countless flying birds!”
Sure enough, in the direction pointed by the soldier, a dark cloud suddenly rose up in the depths of the Tulingan Forest. It was the black sky, which was filled with countless birds, hovering in the sky.
