Chapter 160: Blossoming on All Sides
Chapter 160 Blossoms on All Sides
Arrondissement 11 is perhaps an area that is easily overlooked by ordinary people, as there are no specialties other than food. But for Bunitalia, for the Chinese Federation, this place is like a sword in the throat of the Chinese Federation, a place that has to be mentioned.
You must know that Area 11 is only 50 kilometers away from the Korean Peninsula, which can be reached in an hour if it is a speedboat, and half an hour at most if it is an airplane, which means that Bunitalia may increase troops from the Korean Peninsula at any time, and then attack the Chinese Federation from the sea, and then land two lines in the other direction to flank the Chinese Federation. If the enemy is coming from one direction, you can still defend and be on guard, but not knowing which route to follow from the front and back will lead to a failure and weak link in the defense.
Honezel and Cornelia expected everything. But the only thing that did not anticipate the emperor's direct declaration of war on Kailar was not expected. What he didn't expect was that Khalal's response to the emperor's declaration of war was so decisive and swift. Thirdly, what I didn't expect was that Kailar would choose Area 11 as the focus of his attack.
Now that Area 11 has been captured, don't say anything about Schunezel and withdraw to Bunitalia proper. If he wants to return to Bunitalia now, he has to go through a lot of hard detours, and it is not safe.
He now has to fly to Australia and from there back to Bunitalia. This flight is several times longer than taking a plane directly to Area 11 and then taking a ride back to mainland from Area 11.
And these times are probably the duel between Kailar, who is completely in control of the overall situation, and Emperor Charles, who is completely unfamiliar with the overall situation.
In this duel, do you need to say who will win and who will lose? Now they only hope that Bunitaria will not lose too much, and that it will not be a complete defeat.
Now let alone Honezel, even Cornelia wants to return to Bunitalia proper, so it is not at ease. The battles here are important, but the Bunitalia itself is the key. With the wisdom of that monster in Kailar, even if he directly led the troops of the Chinese Federation to raid the mainland of Burnitalia, Honezel and Cornelia would not be surprised.
This man was not a simple politician, or a military strategist, or a wise man.
You'd be hard-pressed to come up with a single word to describe Kaylar as a person. When they felt that Khalal was a successful speculator, he put the internal politics of the two countries in order and prospered. When they felt that Kaylar was a politician. Kelar took out Lelouch's sword-defying pawn and gave Bunitalia a head start. When they thought Kaylal was a politician. Kailar proved his strategic vision with a surprise attack on Area 11.
From the very beginning of knowing Kaylar as a person, understanding Kalar's tactical command of the knightmare mech to understanding the political structure of the EU, this man has never been seen through by Cornelia.
Cornelia is indeed a voyeur, and she can see some of this man's style of doing things. But it would be naïve to say that Cornelia wanted to find traces of this man's son just from this.
Now he must hurry back to his homeland as soon as possible, tell the Emperor everything he knows, and take over everything as quickly as possible. Otherwise, I am afraid that the strategy and occupation of the entire Bunitaria will be in chaos.
Kaylar's offense isn't just about the 11th.
The EU was even counterattacking the English Channel, and the EU was unusually bold in leading the way with more than 8,000 new mechs and 3,000 P51s. Attack the front of Bunitalia from four directions.
Even if the two Knights of the Round Table fought hard to kill the enemy, they were still defeated by the opponent's crowd tactics when the opponent's average body performance and number of planes were superior. The other side relied on the tactics of interception, shearing, encirclement, etc., interspersed with four armies, and ate 4,000 mechs of Bunitaria in one go, more than 30,000 people.
You know, these are not cheap servants, but pure-blooded Bunitarians from the Bunitalia itself.
These 30,000 people are enough to shake the country's capital.
Because the birthplace of bunitalia is the European continent. Therefore, Burnitalia has a homeland for Europe. It is for this reason that Bunitalia values Europe far more than the Chinese Federation. Europe has also been at loggerheads with Bunitalia.
But now Europe, which is of the same origin, has waved the banner of resistance against Burnitalia and launched a counterattack against Burnitalia.
The Indian Military District also suddenly rebounded. There were also hundreds of thousands of troops, and suddenly a counteroffensive began.
Bunitalia, who had always thought that he had an advantage in numbers, suddenly found that the Indian military district was several times larger in number than his own, and the more lethal thing was not here. The cities they once captured were not many of the people left behind. Those Indian soldiers with about a thousand white tigers were able to easily take the city they had captured before.
On the outskirts of New Delhi, the Bunitarian army was suddenly pushed back several kilometers by Lelouch's counterattack. But now it is no longer a problem for the defenders of New Delhi. It's a question of how they should evacuate after their back roads are cut off.
Lelouch also does not arrange circular encirclements. Because that kind of siege network didn't mean anything to the Bunitarian army, which had four Knights of the Round Table. He just let the Bunitarian army stay where he was, and after showing off his strength a little, there was not much time left for the Bunitarian army.
The reason why Lelouch did not pile up all the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Indian Military Region in New Delhi in one go was because of logistical problems, and the other was that he had been preparing for this moment for a long time. New Delhi is already deep enough into the heart of the Indian Military Region, and it is a bad choice for the other side to withdraw wherever they want to. In the case of interception before the pursuers, the other party wanted to withdraw, but they could only lose the 50,000 people and the 5,000 Sunderlands in embarrassment.
A hasty assault all the way back to the sea, and then being picked up by the navy of Bunitalia. Otherwise, they are likely to be besieged and annihilated here.
How should I retreat? Cornelia immediately rejected the idea of retreating all the way along the Ganges.
Since they are attacking all the way along the Ganges, it is impossible for the other party to let them retreat all the way along the Ganges, both sides of the Ganges are all places where ambushes and ambush electromagnetic weapons can be arranged, such a long Ganges, there is only one way they can walk, although the retreat route of the Ganges is extremely fast, but since Lelouch has calculated this step, he will never let them have a chance to escape from the Ganges.
