003
The pearl of Eastern Europe, the EU, fell.
The process was surprisingly simple, the Bunitanian Empire gathered three knights, and at the same time sent two knights of the round table, using superior forces to rudely tear apart the EU's defenses. This barbaric method of warfare, without any artistic beauty, caught the EU's 'gentlemen' by surprise, and the result was that more than 60,000 men of the EU's Ninth Army were divided and surrounded.
It is worth mentioning that one of the two Knights of the Round Table was awarded the title of Knights of the Round Table for less than a year, and was a colonist of the unique origin in the history of the Empire. That is the Seventh Horseman, the Suzaku of the Chestwood.
The tragic fate of the combined forces of the EU is not to be mentioned, but it has a direct impact on the rebellion in the Chinese Federation.
Although it is a pity that those natural resources are lost, the barren land of Siberia is lost. But without Moscow, the nature is completely different. The EU Central Council, which is now forced to scramble, has to face public opinion attacks deliberately instigated by political opponents and popular accusations, and at the same time have to make strategic adjustments to the fall of Moscow.
To build a new line of defense and form a new army, what is needed is not only materials but also materials, and now that the war has begun to spread to Central Europe, the EU is not in the mood to make trouble for the Chinese Federation. At the end of the day, the EU now hopes to have an intact Federal Republic of China so that they can win them over.
It is not to say that it is necessary to hope that the Chinese Federation will send troops to help the war, at least one of the internal stability and the feeling of external threat on the side of the Chinese Federation will make the empire hesitate to buy a breather for the EU's strategic adjustment. As a result, the EU's blood transfusion to the rebels will soon be cut off.
Compared to the generous sponsorship of the EU, the support given by the empire can be described as a drop in the bucket. After all, in the handling of this matter, the empire did not put it in the status of national policy, and even the emperor only knew that there was such a thing, which was in the same nature as private assistance.
"So, take advantage of this victory and start negotiations with the Federation!"
"But if you don't win completely"
Yagami was a little puzzled, why would this young man with long black hair and a delicate face with a slightly sickly look in front of him say such a thing.
"There is no complete victory in this asymmetrical war, at least until the Bunitanian Empire takes aim at the Chinese Federation, or until the internal contradictions of the Chinese Federation turn around. You didn't agree to come here for more than a decade of useless battles with a superpower, did you? ”
"That's right." After a moment of silence, Yagami admits frankly, "I'm so sorry for asking such a stupid question. ”
The black-haired boy smiled unexpectedly, then turned to look at Yagami.
"Have you ever imagined how to proceed after the negotiations?"
"This" Yagami was stunned by the question.
He really hadn't thought about it.
After the failure of the rebellion in District 11, he was finally found by the young man in front of him, and was dragged to this desolate and unfamiliar land, and when he came back to his senses, he was already fighting for the people here against the corrupt government and fighting for independence.
"You've been with Zero for a long time, haven't you learned something from him?"
"What did you learn?"
This question was too vague, and for a while, Yagami didn't know how to answer it
"First of all, all revolutions must disseminate ideas that can unite people's hearts, put forward slogans and doctrines, let the eager people see hope, and in the process, the revolutionary side can have a clear direction of development. Otherwise, even if the previous regime is overthrown, it will fall short because it has lost its way, and there is no shortage of such examples in history. The black-haired boy waited for a moment before speaking on his own.
Second, the doctrine advocated must conform to the will of the people and the requirements of the progress of the times. If you go against the trend of the times, you will be crushed by the wheel of history. Now, do you remember what Zero did back then? ”
Such an obvious point suddenly made Yagami think that from the uprising in Afghanistan to the present, it seems that there is no revolutionary idea at all, and everyone seems to be only bent on resisting tyranny.
This is indeed an important question. If you don't plan for the future, once the time comes for the Chinese Federation to recognize Afghanistan's autonomy, it will also be a place of chaos.
But at the same time, Yagami couldn't help but think about what he had experienced when he joined the Black Knights in District 11.
At a time when the Empire continued to oppress the people of District 11 and extract the wealth of District 11, Zero first set the theme of becoming a partner of justice for the Black Knights. In the aftermath of the massacre in the Special Administrative Region, Zero took advantage of the situation to issue a declaration of independence, declaring to the world that he would build a country that would accept any race, history, or ism.
Isn't this exactly what the boy said? However, all of this is hidden behind Zero's excellent command skills and charisma.
"But if that's the case, why would Zero fail!?" Thinking of this, Yagami couldn't help but ask loudly with emotion.
"Well, Zero did a good job. But perhaps because of the living environment, his focus is slightly problematic, and his vision is not broad enough. ”
"What do you mean?"
"There was nothing wrong with Zero choosing Japan because it has a unique development advantage that allows him to grow quickly. But he ignores the fact that Japan is only an isolated island nation. Under the absolute control of the Empire, his voice spread across the sea to the world overseas. In this way, it will not be possible to win over the large number of Japanese stranded overseas and sympathizers from other countries. Unable to attract the attention of international public opinion, they can only be positioned as terrorists, and it is even more difficult to obtain foreign assistance from the EU or the Chinese Federation. There was even a situation where the Chinese Federation took advantage of the situation to loot the invasion of the Liaodong Military District, you shouldn't have forgotten it, right? ”
"Secondly, Zero was acting too impatiently. Although it is unknown what kind of psychology he had, it can be seen from his various performances at the beginning that he has a very eager tendency to face off against the Bunitanian Empire. From his appearance to the outbreak of the Black Rebellion, it only took more than half a year. The time for more than half a year of talent reserve and military training is too short. Perhaps because Yufimia's special administrative district policy came too suddenly, it disrupted his arrangement, but the end result was that he led a group of improvised motley troops to start a vigorous battle with ordinary people who had not even touched a gun before. ”
After taking a deep look at Yagami's shocked expression, the boy delivered a fatal blow.
"In terms of results, in the end, Zero is only leading a handful of rebels to fight alone against the Bunitanian Empire. Moreover, even if the Black Rebellion had won victory over the Empire, the Bunitanian Empire would have been able to easily blockade Japan's sea lines, which would have been even more lethal for the resource-poor island nations that had long relied on attack. ”
But soon, the boy laughed softly.
"Of course, everything that has been said before is for objective reasons. The subjective reason is that Zero picked the wrong opponent at the wrong time. The Bunitanian Empire is too powerful, that's it"
"The Chinese Federation is not the same but it is also very powerful?" Yagami muttered in a low voice.
"That's because we're not alone in facing the Chinese Federation." The boy's tone changed suddenly.
"But this situation will soon disappear, so we must ensure the fruits that have been obtained before the Chinese Federation finds out the real situation."
As he said this, he saw the boy use a red pen to draw down the map along the 35 degrees east longitude, extending to the Black Sea.
After doing this, the boy smiled with satisfaction.
"Well, since the EU doesn't want this land anymore, then it's up to me to take it."
Yagami looked at the boy who said this in shock.
Originally, he thought that Zero was already the most daring person he had ever seen, but compared to the person in front of him, it was completely insignificant. The enclosed land on the map is almost the size of the entire territory of the Chinese Federation. What's more, it is still heavily defended by the Bunitanian Empire.
"Huh" After a moment of silence, Yagami suddenly laughed.
"Formerly one of the Black Knights' greatest enemies, you unexpectedly stood on the other side when the whole world thought you were dead. I still don't think it's real at all. ”
"Fate is so unpredictable, isn't it?" The dark-haired teenager shrugged slightly
I'm still so tired every day, and I feel like I'm about to finish eating
