MTL - Please Sink In Happiness-Chapter 266
Olina smiled confidently.
These days, the armored force has undoubtedly become the protagonist of the entire battlefield. It is precisely because the performance of this new type of weapon is too eye-catching that the armies of the two countries will ignore the existence of infantry.
Infantry is often the key to determining the outcome of a war. If the Kingdom of Shenglu can be conquered, even the latest model of armored combat vehicles can be used as sacrifices.
…
…
On the frontline battlefield, Ivy immediately issued an order to put the anti-armor artillery that had already been lurking on the high ground at the same time as the armored forces of the Azure Empire were scattered.
Immediately afterwards, when the Azure Empire thought that it had broken through the defense line of the Kingdom of Shengluer, they ushered in the counter-charge of the Kingdom of Shengluer. The cannonballs hit the sky like raindrops, and the shells hit the armor one after another. Chariot, blazing fire.
Before the armored soldiers could get out of the chariot, they were scalded to death by the instantly rising high temperature in the "steel coffin".
The soldiers of the Azure Empire finally woke up from their arrogance and saw the horror of the Shengluer Kingdom's artillery fire.
"Catch up with them, from now on, it's time for the Shengluer Kingdom to counterattack!"
Although the Kingdom of Shengluer has also lost a lot of troops, Ivy will definitely not miss the opportunity.
From now on, she will assemble her army, recover those lost territories previously occupied by the Empire, and end the war in one to three months.
Chapter 66 The Insights of Louis XIV
The Battle of Fenglu City became a meat grinder. After the war, both Ivy and Olina tried their best to think about the opponent's next move. The battlefield was filled with gunpowder smoke. Once the soldiers stepped into the battlefield, it was almost difficult for them Live for a week.
A few days ago, the news of Ivy's defeat of Erich spread all over the streets of Shengluer Kingdom and became a hero.
But when Ivy was going to pursue the victory, the empire's northern and southern armies responded immediately, and like powerful pliers, they delayed the counterattack of the Shengluer Kingdom's army.
Two days later, Olina personally led the full force of seven elite infantry divisions and two artillery divisions to attack the heavily surrounded capital.
Armored forces are attracting all eyes these days, and it is only today that one finally recalls the fear of light infantry domination.
Although the army was overwhelming, Louis XIV was by no means a coward. He stood on the city wall, put on a military uniform, and held a magic pistol. He stood on the city wall with the defenders of Fenglu City to defend the capital, in order to protect the Kingdom of Shengluer. In the final glory, people dug trenches spontaneously, and they even donated furniture to make barricades.
"The people and the nobles are the sons of the state."
Louis XIV gave a speech from a high place. In order to win and boost morale, Louis XIV had not slept for two days, and the frequency of enemy attacks was getting higher and higher.
Three hundred artillery pieces continued to attack the city defense, the capital was at stake, and Ivy's returning army was restrained.
"When the gate of Fenglu City is broken by the enemy, I will forever be a shame to the Elba family."
He came to the Invalides to pay homage to the late king. The offensive and defensive battles of Fenglu City had been going on day and night, and the deafening sound was like the mockery of his father.
For a long time, the king who looked down on his father by Louis XIV was arrogant in the military, but in addition to making the Kingdom of Shengluer richer, he was a mess on the battlefield.
Back at the palace, he held the girl's hand:
"Lotte, leave this country, marry a man you can trust, and forget Louis XIV forever."
"No, I want to be with you forever, even death can't separate us."
The beautiful girl from civilian background stared at Louis XIV, and was ready to die.
Louis XIV listened to the guns outside the palace, like the nocturne played by the court musicians, beautiful and cruel, and if it was paired with a glass of red wine, it would be wonderful.
"Lotte, I'm not afraid of death, but I suddenly don't want to die. If I want to escape, are you willing to come with me? Even if we give up this country, the money we have will be enough for us and our descendants to squander at will."
"Your Majesty, are you going to give up all this?"
"War is not the job of the king, but the job of the generals. I shouldn't pay for the stupidity of the generals. What's more, as a king, I have done my best, and now I want to protect my women as a man."
Lotte looked at Louis XIV blankly and nodded.
That night, Louis XIV and Lotte came to the front again.
They looked at the large and small bullet marks on the walls of Fenglu City. The soldiers had already collapsed on the ground to rest from exhaustion, but even if they were resting, they kept their guns in their hands and were ready to meet their enemies at any time.
"His Majesty!"
The soldiers were very moved to see the blond man with dark circles coming to the front again.
"Everyone, rest. After this war is over, the Kingdom of Shengluer will be reborn from the ruins."
Louis XIV comforted the soldiers and distributed pensions.
But at this moment, Louis XIV and Lotte were suddenly detained from behind by a group of soldiers. These soldiers were the royal guard, led by a knight in silver armor.
"Your Majesty, I have persuaded you many times. Next, you must quickly evacuate from the capital that may fall at any time. As a knight commander, it is necessary for me to ensure your safety."
"Shut up, you let me go, as a king, I must stand with my capital and people!"
Louis XIV roared in rage, but the knight commander was indifferent. He looked at the soldiers and said:
"His Majesty has not slept for several days because of this war. At the same time, in order to pay enough pensions, he sold several castles. Yesterday, His Majesty Louis XIV had a physical problem, so even if he is forced to Because, I also have to let His Majesty leave the front line and return to the rear to receive regular treatment."
"Let go of me, I want to stand with my country, my people, I can't leave them behind!"
Louis XIV roared loudly, but to no avail, the knight in front of him couldn't get in.
So Louis XIV was dragged into the carriage and left the battlefield.
"Your Majesty is seriously ill and still thinks of us. It's really great."
The soldiers burst into tears. Such a good king who stands with the people is rare in the world. If the kings of other countries are facing the city, they will definitely run away.
However, what they didn't expect was that Louis XIV, who yelled and was dragged into the carriage, was now sitting in the carriage drinking fine wine, smiling happily, and the girl in his arms snuggled beside him, and since then , war will never threaten the duo again.
Until the end, Louis XIV was still an excellent actor.
"Anyway, we are all fictional, and this world is also an assessment of Stigma Academy. If that's the case, why don't we have fun?"
Said Louis XIV, who was sitting in the carriage.
"Your Majesty, this world is fictional? What does it mean?"
"Means nothing."
Although it was a fragmentary memory, Louis XIV knew that everything that happened now stemmed from someone's memory.
In those trivial memory fragments, Louis XIV saw that the Shengluer Kingdom and the Azure Empire lost both in this war, and the international column of fishermen gained.
He also saw that two years later would be his own death. As a king who constantly exploited the poor with his assets, he would eventually be caught by members of the column, dragged to parade the streets, and then hung from the street lamps, his body swaying in the wind, feeling Like on a swing.
When he died, the people of Shengluer who stood under the street lamps finally saw through Louis XIV's poor acting skills. No one lamented for him, but applauded. Louis XIV thought that although he was fooling and taking advantage of the people, he was better than other powerful people. , he can be considered to have a conscience, even though his conscience is only to improve the work efficiency of the people.
"You were the only one crying for me, Lotte."
Louis XIV said softly.
Lotte was a little at a loss:
"What happened, Your Majesty?"
"It's nothing." Louis XIV said lightly, "Maybe I should send a letter to Ivy later, so that after she finishes the assessment and returns to reality, I will persuade the foolish king who is addicted to the money game."
Chapter 67 The International Column Prepares for Action
On that day, dense fleets appeared on the coastline. These fleets that crossed the sea did not belong to a certain country, but belonged to a certain organization. This organization was called the International Column.
Whoever is the most active in the international column, then Prince Langton deserves it. He tried his best to say every word, and he almost shouted, as if he was afraid that others would not hear him.
Batu now regards Langton as a brother, but this is only on the surface.
As one of the three royal families of the Dongzhou Empire, Batu may appear to be a carefree and heroic man, but in fact he is as meticulous as he is, and he has already penetrated the evil intentions beneath the surface of Prince Langton's enthusiasm.
On the same battleship, Heinz Goodaller had already made preparations. The landing craft had the same armored force as that of the Azure Empire. Originally, the International Column thought that it would take half a year to successfully develop this weapon. There are many talents in the column, including designers from other worlds, so in just a few weeks, an armored combat vehicle production line was added to the original military factory.
"Comrades and comrades-in-arms, the forces of the Shengluer Kingdom and the Azure Empire have reached a white-hot stage. In this war, countless innocent civilians have lost their lives, and our spiritual leader, Mr. Li Zijin, has also been imprisoned by the Queen of the Empire. , I can't tolerate all this happening, so we have to strike out to rescue Mr. Li Zijin."
Prince Langton's eyes swept across every column member standing beside him. Soldiers from different countries, races, and skin colors were holding weapons, standing on the bow and looking at the coastline.
Obviously, Prince Langton's words had gone to their hearts.
"Heinz, are you confident that the war will end and this assessment will end?"
Batu asked in a deep voice.
"I'm sure, Brother Batu," Heinz stood on the deck drinking beer, "the current Shengluer Kingdom and the Azure Empire have been greatly consumed in the national and financial resources under the tug-of-war between the three months. It's like two dying giants, attacking at such a time, I even feel that it is impossible to win."
"But the war is never fair, we just need to win!" Prince Langton walked up to Batu and Heinz, "Brother Batu and Brother Heinz, after this assessment is over, we will Just keep in touch, we're from different countries, but we share the same ideals, and it's been a lifetime honor for me to meet you."
Seeing Prince Langton taking such initiative, Batu had no choice but to shake hands with him.
Heinz is also polite.
But after Prince Langton left, they all wiped their hands with handkerchiefs.
"I feel embarrassed for him for such poor acting."
Heinz threw the empty wine bottle from the deck into the sea.
"But his proposal is not bad," Batu said, looking at the blue sky, "after leaving the assessment, you will be my brother of Batu. You are welcome to come to the Manger Prairie of Dongzhou Empire at any time. I'll treat you to beef jerky and kumiss."
"I will definitely visit you in your hometown when I have a chance, Brother Batu. After I leave the secret realm, I will find Kutak to join the international column and fight for fairness and justice. This statement is ridiculous and naive, but And what man didn't want to be a partner of justice when he was young?"
"Brother Heinz, seriously, you don't look like a righteous man."
"Anyone who is played by the world pretends to be cynical, and anyone who is praised by the world pretends that they didn't work hard, because it will appear more advanced. I don't want others to think of justice when they see me, and I don't want to make When others mention me, they think I am a judge who cannot tolerate sand in his eyes, and I just want to do what I can."
"You're saying this like you're saying that Langton is a low-level person."
"I'm not denying it, but rather, I'm just talking ill of him around the corner."
The two men with similar smells just chatted casually on the deck, and promised to become important friends after the assessment was over.
For a person with a temperament, making friends does not require hypocrisy, and often only needs to clink a glass once. This is something that Prince Langton will never be able to learn.
The coastline has entered the field of vision. In front is the important seaport city of the Shengluer Kingdom, Port Marne, and the general stationed in the seaport city is Admiral Leclerc. By chance, he has become one of the secret members of the international column.
Landing here means that the soldiers of the international column do not need to brave the hail of bullets to land on the beach.
"Leclerc has replaced that iris flag."
Three three-dimensional triangular flags, symbolizing the international column, flew head-on.
The middle-aged man standing on the coastline took off his military cap and waved to the surface fleet of the international column.
That person was Leclerc. As the confidant of Marshal Lianqing and the arm of Louis XIV, he could have enjoyed glory and wealth, but he turned to the international column.
What is certain is that Leclerc is not for money or power, but for his ideals and beliefs, like most members of the column.
"I didn't expect that the legendary Leclerc would also be attracted by the influence of the international column eight years later."
"I think this is a matter of course. After all, Louis XIV of the Shengluer Kingdom was a fox who exploited the people at the bottom of the world, and had to act like a fox who was kind to the world. Under the command of such a king, it would be strange that a person of insight would not betray. "
The fleet and landing craft went ashore one by one. Among the international column, there were students from the Eastern Continent Empire and the countries of the southern continent. Eight years later, most of them also joined the international column.
Among the soldiers in the column, there are mainly Eastern Continents, Sri Lankans, orcs, and some Western Continents among them. It is a veritable national melting pot.
"Welcome to your presence, everyone, I am Leclerc, my full name is Philippe Jacques Leclerc, you can call me General Leclerc, or you can call me Comrade Philippe, as you please."
Leclerc was holding a cigarette, the brand of which is said to be Marshal Lianqing's favorite cigarette brand.
"Hello, General Leclerc." Prince Langton stepped forward and shook hands with Leclerc, "I am honored that you can join the side of justice and truth."
"Don't put the tall hat on me. I also have my own selfishness. Since you have already gone ashore, it means that the time is ripe." Leclerc turned his head and said to the adjutant standing by, "Go and cut off the radio with the military department. Also inform the rest of the comrades that the storm is coming."
On the same day, several armies that lost contact appeared in the army of the Shengluer Kingdom and the army of the Azure Empire.
Chapter 68 Carefully Raised Fat Sheep
Today, almost all the troops in the Kingdom of Shengluer and the Azure Empire are not fully staffed, and corpses are scattered all over the battlefield and ruins. There is no winner in this war except for rats and maggots.
Olina and Ivy couldn't remember how many times they exchanged fire, and now even if they saw the innocent child being killed, their hearts were already numb.
Sensibility is lost, replaced by absolute rationality.
The so-called life is a series of cold numbers, and nothing else.
"Erwin, what do you think of the situation?"
Of the past three confidants, only Erwin remained loyal to Olina, which made Olina feel a little comfort.
"Your Majesty, if the battle of Fenglu City continues, it will only be a pure war of attrition. Even if it can't be conquered even for a year, my suggestion is to bypass Fenglu. After the capital of Shengluer Kingdom, there is a wider territory. Waiting for us to conquer."
"When do you think the war will end?"
"It will take four years to conservatively estimate. After all, the Kingdom of Shengluer already has the means to counter armored combat vehicles."
