Southern Front, Fortesset area. Former enemy command in the Southern Theater of Operations

"We're not convinced! We are not convinced! ”

At this time, the generals of the former enemy headquarters were gathered, and the main high-ranking military commanders of the southern front were gathered, and they were gathered at this time because the new commander was doing something that she liked to see......

"I've made a name for myself on the Western Front! I've fought on the Western Front! Syllable! ”

This is a brutal clean-up of officers.

"Exploits? Will that stuff justify your rout on the Southern Front? ”

Long white boots rested on the head of the colonel, who had been shot and killed, her aqua blue hair fluttering, and her sapphire-like pupils filled with disdain.

"Because of your incompetence, the troops on the southern front have suffered heavy losses, and it is only natural that you should pay for the soldiers who were killed by you with your life."

Looking at the eighth officer who was shot on the ground, there was no pity in the young female general's eyes.

"Estes! You beast! You witch! Are you used to killing people in Ishbal and still want to kill people in our south?! ”

The last to be escorted to the front was a major general. Former commander of the collapsed troops of the front

"I am a major general of the army of Amestories! You brigadier have no right to execute me! I'm going to appeal! Bang - boom! ”

Before the major general could finish shouting, Estes snapped his fingers and he turned into a puddle of minced meat.

Exploded and died.

"It was a major general, and yesterday the president personally appointed it."

Sitting back in the commander's seat at the headquarters, Estes looked at the other officers present

"Okay guys, the idiots and bureaucrats and cowards of the corpse vegetarian meal have been dealt with by me, I untie the hands and feet that bind you, I brought you the opportunity, I also brought you the equipment and strategic reserves, in return for your ......"

The finger points to the red arrow inserted on the map to represent the Ayerug Legion in the south of Amestories.

"Deal with the invading army for me!"

"Yes!" *N

The outstanding officers who had endured a group of bureaucrats who had been eating a vegetarian meal for a long time replied firmly, vowing to repay General Estes for the opportunity they had brought to them with the flesh and blood of the Ayerug Army.

With the blood of Ayerug.

"I'm so happy to see everyone so morale~ so ......"

After checking the information of these officers, going to their troops, and knowing that the rest were all good, Estes got up from the commander's position with confidence, split his cloak, and waved his hand to completely shatter the gorgeous seat on which the commander was sitting.

"I don't have seats or special seats on the battlefield, so please return to your unit immediately and organize the battle. In half an hour, the troops I have brought will attack the enemy from the left flank of the enemy on the western side, so please hold back the enemy in front of you. I'll be entrusted with the task of encircling the enemy's main force! ”

"Yes!"

Meet the good commander!

"Follow me! Brethren of the Southern Army! I'll take you to kill all the enemies! ”

"Yes!"

The bloody and powerful General Estes is here

……………………………………

"Boom! Oh no! The army of Amestorius has attacked! "After a month of thorough preparation, with several divisions of reinforcements and secret units drawn from the Eastern Command and the Northern Command, Army Group South, led by Estes, launched an all-out counterattack against the Ayerug Army in front of them.

"Calm down! Calm down! Resist resolutely! Haven't we all succeeded before? ”

"No! This time it's different! The army of Amestorius has gone crazy! They're crazy! ”

Unlike in the past, this time the plenipotentiary was not the idiot commanders who feared the enemy, but General Estes Bradley, who had an outstanding will to fight and command ability

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

The roar of artillery covered the horizon, from the fog of gunpowder, from the continuous trenches and trenches, from the foxholes, from the trucks, from the military columns, under the cover of the new heavy artillery fire, the barrage slowly rushing towards the enemy's positions.

It was tens of thousands of soldiers of the Amester Storian Army whose morale was high.

……………………

"Enemy Charge Cluster! Machine guns ready to fire...... Wait a minute...... What is that?! ”

In this campaign, in order to test a new concept weapon, Estes brought all the weapons he brought back from the secret factory in the north.

Hundreds of steel behemoths with the roar of motor engines pressed against the enemy's machine-gun fire against the enemy's position.

"Shoot! Shoot! What are you doing in a daze?! Shoot! ”

The bullets struck the steel shield and were relentlessly bounced away, leaving the Ayeruq on the ground with no weapons to pierce through the shells of the enemy monsters.

"Bullets don't work! Our bullets can't penetrate the enemy! What is that?! ”

Tank - a new conceptual weapon that has just been developed and produced at the Northern Factory.

With the support of Estes, he was included in the plan for the production and combat test of the secret army by the president with a stroke of the pen.

And the test unit is Estes's Chasseur Division.

There were more than 200 tanks, and the new tanks that Estes had the whim to participate in the modification and design were all attached to the Chasseur Division in Estes.

It played an extremely large role in attacking the Ayerug flank line.

"Run! The monster is coming! ”

"Can't hold it! The line of defense can't be held! Fall back! Fall back! ”

The strong defensive line of the enemy's three divisions was lightly broken through by the Chasseur Regiment with the support of artillery and tanks, and the following several troops with Estes, who had fought side by side in Ishbal, followed by the main division of the Eastern Army, and then completely routed the Ayerug army, which had been neglecting the battle formation for a long time.

The whole army took Estes's Chasseur Division as the tip of the knife and headed towards the rear of the core of the Ayerug Army.

……………………

"All the soldiers follow up the tank, pay attention to the coordination of the infantry tank! Pay attention to the step-tan coordination! ”

For two years, after strengthening the armored forces, Estes had his soldiers train their infantry coordination, which was eventually used on the Southern Front.

Under the skillful coordination of the Butans, the Ayerugs could not help Estes's forces at all.

In an era when conceptual weapons had never existed, the panicked Ayerug army was unable to stop the attack of the Amestorian army.

"The enemy's machine guns and barbed wire can't help us! Rush over! Chop up the Ayerugs! ”

The enemy's carefully arranged defense line was torn apart by armored forces one by one, and the excessive concentration of troops was the characteristic of the southern front, and the Ayerug army in Amestolis had just broken through the defense line and inserted into one, and the Ayerug army in Amestolius had not yet had time to build a strong fortification group, which made Estes's armored troops even more powerful.

In the face of a group of unprepared, deep and unprotected Ayerug troops pursued and fought fiercely all the way, with the strong cooperation of the southern army from other aspects, Ayerug could not resist the real parry, strengthened the morale of the troops, and the offensive of the Amestories army, which vowed to defend the motherland, continued to retreat.

Ayerug, unlike Amestories, is a country that coexists on land and sea, and in order to protect the interests of its maritime colonies, more than half of the country's armaments budget is given to the navy.

It is also a parliamentary constitutional monarchy, so the army's fighting will, fighting quality, and equipment naturally cannot be compared with the militarized absolute continental army of Amerstories.

After convincing the president to increase his troops. Supported by both the Eastern Army and the Northern Army, Estes' men gathered twice as many troops as the Ayerug invasion army, three times the artillery fire, and the unprecedented conceptual force - the armored forces, after being strengthened, aiming at the enemy's rapid advance into the territory of the country, the concentration of troops but the organization was in a short period of time, Estes led the Ayerug army to launch a roundabout attack on the flank of the Ayerug army with the armored forces first.

……………………

Ayerug Army Command

"Commander! Big things are wrong! The army of Amestorius suddenly launched a roundabout attack on our western flank! The direction was broken! The enemy is coming in our depth! We're surrounded! Besieged! ”

Accustomed to positional warfare and confrontational warfare, the Ayerug Army, which was slow to respond to management dogmas, could not adapt to Estes's lightning-fast combat style. I was caught off guard by the beating.

"Impossible! There are three divisions on the left flank of the west flank, how can the defense of the elite division be broken through! ”

At first, it was only the western flank, and the Eastern Army, which soon rushed into the gap, quickly expanded its gains.

The Southern Army, on the other hand, was not a vegetarian, and quickly launched an attack when it pinched the enemy's belly and back, completely tearing apart the enemy's defensive line.

Gradually, the whole situation was shaken.

"Boom!"

"What's going on?! Where**?! ”

After a week of full-scale overall attack.

"The commander is not good! Some of the Amess Storis army in strange cars rushed straight behind us! The guard battalion was defeated! We're being banged! Yes!! ”

Crushed by Estes's efficient and brutal lightning-like offensive.

The headquarters of the Ayerug invading army was terminated by the assault forces.

…………………………

"This is the 13th Division of the Southern Army! Which part is on the other side?! ”

"We are from the 6th Division of the Eastern Army! Own! ”

"Great! Report to the Commander! We're up with our brothers in the east! ”

After the whole legion fell into chaos, the retreat was cut off.

…………………………

"We are from the Amestoli Chasseur Division! You are surrounded! ”

One by one, the soldiers of the energetic and physically fit Chasseur Division jumped from their tanks to surround the headquarters of the enemy army group, collect the enemy's weapons, and then walked towards the bearded Lieutenant General Ayerug, who was about sixty years old.

"Let your troops surrender, you're done."

“…………”

The old lieutenant general did not say much, but silently untied the sword that the king had given him to symbolize glory and victory from his waist and handed it to the captain.

"The entire Ayerug 1st Army, surrender to the Amestoli Army."

Without any hope of victory, the Ayerugh army surrendered

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

"You're the commander of the Ayerug First Army, Lieutenant General Elano Red?"

Looking at the depressed old man in front of him, Estes sat on the luxurious seat that the old man brought from China not far away, crossed his legs, dragged his cheeks, and looked at him with cold eyes.

"Yes, I'm Elano Red. Who is your Excellency? ”

The age of the general in front of him is shockingly small, and if you roughly estimate it, you can guess that he is in his early twenties.

is still a very beautiful woman who captivates the country and the city.

But anyway......

"Estes Bradley. Temporary Commander of the Southern Front. ”

His eyes were cold, and his voice was full of disdain, exactly the same as the temperament of the whole person.

"Is Your Excellency Brigadier General Estes Bradley, the eldest daughter of Your Excellency President Kim Bradley, and conqueror of the Northern Ice Fields and Ishbal?"

Knowing that he was defeated at the hands of such a famous rookie of the Amess Storian Army, and at the same time the daughter of the president, with a noble bloodline, gave the old lieutenant general a little more comfort in his heart.

"Does it matter if I am the daughter of the great president and whether I win or not? The incompetent Duke General of Ayerug? ”

Ayerug's officers are full of such noble and noble but mediocre or even not very enterprising wastes in command.

Although it is not bad in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of Estes......

"The 100,000-strong army surrendered after only a week, it's a complete waste."

Although Estes's troops and command capabilities are strong, the technical equipment is also superior.

But in her estimation, even if the 100,000-strong army is surrounded, it should be able to last for half a month!

You must know that Ayerug has been preparing for this operation for a long time, and on the border outside the encirclement, Ayerug still has 200,000 troops preparing to attack, and a new offensive may be launched at any time, and the possibility of the Ayerug army in the encirclement successfully breaking through is not impossible.

"Your Excellency's troops are too brave, our troops have been divided, and the command has only gone to coordinate so ......"

"If you lose your superiors, it will fall apart, and what else do you need grassroots commanders to do?! If you can't survive without your superiors and subordinates, then what are you doing in normal times? Hiding in casinos and red light districts to drink and gamble for money**? ”

In Estes's view, the task of superiors is not only to protect their subordinates, but also to educate and train their subordinates so that they are more capable of surviving.

The formation of armies is to obtain great strength, and great strength is rooted in strong individuals.

Since he is a commander, it is necessary to let his subordinates get the opportunity to become stronger, which means that cultivating his subordinates to make them stronger is the responsibility that a leader should shoulder.

This is Estes' idea.

That's why so many people like to aspire to follow Estes.

Because she will not restrict and suppress her subordinates with Estes, she hopes that her subordinates will become stronger.

That's why Estes' troops are so strong.

And this bastard in front of him......

“…… On behalf of the remaining 90,000 men of the Ayerug First Army, I surrender to the honorable Amesstorian Army, hoping that Your Excellency will treat your prisoners well, and the soldiers are innocent. ”

The old lieutenant general, who didn't want to say anything more, bent down and handed his gem-encrusted gold saber forward.

The old man of sixty stoops down and surrenders to a girl under twenty years old, and it looks really funny.

"I did receive your intentions~"

Smiled and took the saber symbolizing power with one hand, drew the knife and looked at it.

"But it's a pity~" "Pssssssss ”

"Ahh

The golden sword plunged into the lieutenant general's abdomen. Holding the golden sword on his stomach, the lieutenant general fell backwards.

"I will not accept your surrender."

With the murderous look of a beast in his eyes, he casually broke off the scabbard made of gold and silver, which was inlaid with gems and diamonds, and was still vomiting blood in his mouth, and his face was full of shock.

"Lieutenant General! You guys smack! Syllable! ”

Several officers who accompanied the lieutenant general to surrender dreamed that someone would kill the surrendered general on the spot when he was surrendered.

Just as they were about to say something, a few bullets from the side made them shut up as well.

"You...... You...... For...... Why...... Is it? ”

Crimson blood kept gushing out of his mouth, clutching the wound on his stomach and the golden sword inserted into his abdomen, and the lieutenant general looked at Estes in bewilderment.

"Why? That's a lovely question, stupid old man. ”

Squatting down with his hands behind his back, he squinted and smiled at the old lieutenant general, whose face was getting paler and paler because of blood loss.

"Didn't you just say that you want me to treat the captives well, that is, it is my right to deal with the captives? ~”

Then put on a cruel and arrogant expression, condescending to look at the dying worm.

"On the battlefield, the strong have the right to deal with the defeated weak at will, this is a basic law. As the winner, for you, I can let you go, and it is my freedom to kill as much as I want, and it has nothing to do with your thoughts. ”

"Soldier...... The remaining 90,000 soldiers...... What will happen? ”

It's rare that in the end, this pedantic old general will still think about those soldiers when he is dying

"Wait a while at the Ghost Gate, they'll go back to you soon~"

"You guy! Not people! Devil! Demon! Cough! Cough! Cough! …… I...... I ......"

Hearing that Estes actually wanted to kill nearly 100,000 soldiers, the old man's face turned purple with anger, and then he spurted out two mouthfuls of blood and coughed violently.

"Thank you for the compliment~ Being so sincerely hated by the enemy is the best commendation for me~ But at this time, should you say something specific to make me a little afraid? ~”

Watching the struggle and anger of the enemy invaders before their death was Estes' interest.

Now she doesn't want to fight and play with the enemy while fighting together.

After passing through Ishbal, Estes knew that she had to use a qiē method to keep the guest calm in order to win, and she didn't want to do another defeat in Ishbal, so she would be very calm and suppress her interest when fighting......

"Maybe some of your threatening words will make me scared~"

Once she is sure that victory is in her hands, she will bring back the pleasure of torture and humiliation that she has suppressed for a long time in the defeated enemy, and all the murderous and brutal desires that have accumulated in her heart.

After the victory.

"Slaughter innocent ...... POW...... You will be ...... by the international community Condemned ...... You will make your neighbors more ...... towards you Hostile ......"

Is it possible that the dying old waste wants to use this kind of thing to make Estes regret and be afraid?

"The condemnation of the international community? Diplomatic condemnation? International public opinion? Hatred of neighbors? ~”

Hearing these words, the mocking smile in Estes' eyes intensified.

"Are you kidding me? ~”

That's the last thing Estes cares about.

"Can international public opinion stop aggression? Can Diplomatic Condemnation Mean War? Can international public opinion kill people? Hostility ...... Neighbors"

"Poof—"

As he spoke, he drew his golden saber

"Poof—"

Pierced into the heart of the lieutenant general again

"Even if I don't kill you, will this hatred disappear?"

“……”

And the lieutenant general couldn't answer her anymore, because the heart was pierced, and the lieutenant general was completely hung up.

"The way to stop aggression is to let all the aggressors die, the way to end the war is to completely defeat the other side, and international public opinion is something used to create a reason for war, and it can only be used to deceive idiots. As for the hatred of neighboring countries...... Haha~"

Needless to say about the situation around Amsteris?

Ayerug in the south was busy expanding its overseas colonies. Trying to contain Amestories on land, even if they did not hesitate to start a war, they wanted to delay the expansion of Amerstorius.

To the west, the United Emirate of Ancient Radar had just joined forces with Amestolis to annex the Milos tribe, and not long after that, the idea of Amestories began to fight again.

It was also thanks to the strength of Amestories that it did not launch a full-scale offensive, but it constantly sent troops to harass and destroy the border areas of Amestostories.

There are clashes on the border from time to time.

The Draguma Empire in the north was insatiable, and sent troops to attack the fortress of Bliguz many times in vain, and if it weren't for the heroic and good fighting of the Northern Army to keep the enemy out of danger, it would be difficult to say what would happen to Amestolius now.

In such a cannibalistic international environment, caring about the attitude of the enemy and neighbor is a sick brain behavior.

Neighbors are enemies, and that is the characteristic of this era.

Have you treated the enemy's captives well and let them go back before the next attack on Amestolius?

The loss of 100,000 elite soldiers in one fell swoop was enough to give Ayerug a pain in the flesh for a while, and for Amestories to take a breath from Ishbal's wounds.

According to intelligence, Ayerug's troops on standby on the northern front at this time were only 300,000, and 100,000 were killed by Estes in one go, and the remaining troops did not pose a threat to Estes's troops in terms of the quality and quantity of equipment or the training process.

Because it was this First Army that had been fighting against Amesh Storis for several years.

The others are overseas legions and reserve legions.

And there's the most critical one......

"Ladies and gentlemen, remember not to declare this equipment you see today, they are a secret of our country. It's the magic weapon that will win in the future, do you understand? ”

Another reason is that Estes can't let these enemies who have combat experience with her armorers return alive.

Because this battle seemed to Estes to be just a battle.

It will take a long time to fully launch a large-scale operation.

During this period, the affairs of the armored forces must be kept secret as much as possible, especially not to be found out by the enemy country.

You can't fight the same enemy more than once, as this will allow the enemy to learn what you know about you, so if you want to have an advantage in the next battle to understand the enemy and the enemy doesn't know you, the best thing to do is not to let the enemy go back alive.

"Have all the enemy's weapons been collected?"

"Yes, Your Excellency, General, it's all collected. The enemy surrendered to us in regimental units. Now we are in custody. Wait for your next command. ”

"We didn't catch any prisoners of war, got it?"

"General...... That's nearly 100,000 people. ”

"It's the aggressor, not the tourist, and I don't remember that my country invited 100,000 Ayerug troops to visit the hinterland of our country. 100,000 people, not a single one remains. ”

"Yes!"

"Alright, the battle meeting is over~ It's time for me to go see our cute Ayerug piglets~"

Thinking about the pleasant time ahead, Estes moved his wrist and prepared to go to the entertainment.

"I don't know how the technique is after not using alchemy in full force for so long? Regression? ~”

The next is the time when the earth is stained with blood, and the blood of nearly 100,000 Ayerug invading troops is stained red

A war zone south of Fortesset in the southwestern part of the country.

Blood seeped into the earth.

The Ayerug invasion army could not afford to lose 100,000 of its most elite troops in one go, and the offensive was forced to stop.

The Second Southern Frontier War was largely over.

In May 1911, it was provoked by the Ayerug Army, and by August 1911, the Amestolius Army was reinforced.

On August 1, Estes was promoted to commander in charge of the overall situation, and launched a counterattack on August 20.

On August 27, the Ayerugh army was encircled and surrendered.

Until.

It lasted nearly four months.

The result of the war was that after an early defeat, the army of Amestorius completely wiped out the 120,000 invading Ayerug army.

It completely shook the surrounding countries.

And General Estes once again became famous.

It has become a lingering shadow for the countries of the South.

"Ha~It's so cool~"

After a few days of 'fighting'

Look at the corpses of the invading army and the blood-stained red.

Estes wiped the sweat from his head and took his hat off.

"Sure enough, I feel the best to enjoy the fruits of victory~ Now I gradually understand the reason why my father wants me to gather people together and kill them~"

Previously, when the president agreed with Estes to launch a major counterattack on the southern front, he specifically emphasized not to cross the national border and try to annihilate the enemy near Fortesset.

And Estes did just that.

"Sure enough, slaughtering 100,000 enemies in one place in one go will cause the impact on the enemy to be stronger than anything else~"

After killing the last man, Estes returned to the headquarters outside the hunting ground, drank a cup of coffee, and looked at the Ayerug News newspaper from another source.

It featured a huge blood-stained Fortset slaughterhouse with the headline:

Horror! Amesh Storis Devil General Estes is once again beastly and furious! Slaughter 100,000 of my innocent soldiers! 》

The text is full of curses and anger against Estes, and the fear that his Chinese pen cannot hide and the vivid, bloody photos make every reader's heart tremble.

"It seems that Ayerug will not dare to attack us for the time being, capable of terrifying the most hawkish newspapers in the enemy country...... Temporarily. ”

The enemy's public opinion is trying to steer the people in the direction of fear rather than anger, indicating that the enemy is beginning to succumb.

In a short period of time, the enemy's arrogance to invade the motherland has been completely dispelled, and now he is in constant fear.

According to investigators and intelligence officers, the Ayerug soldiers on the southern side of the border now pretend to be sick and fall behind when they hear that they are going north.

There are deserters.

"In this way, until the enemy's morale is restored, there will be no attack anyway~ What do you think of black and white?"

And sitting opposite Estes is Black Lily, Estes's deputy for many years.

"I also don't think Ayarug will be able to attack again in the short term."

After a few years of hard work, Black Lily has become a colonel. It has become a veritable second-in-command of the Estes troops.

"For two years, at least two years, it will be impossible for Ayerug to wage any more decent battles."

"So shouldn't we go? Go to Dablis and meet Elle? ”

"Yes, it's time to go too~ The bandits in the southern region are not light, so let's start with the Raxiu Valley area."
