"I really want to know how His Majesty made such a bold decision." Looking at the map in front of him, Walter, who was already the commander-in-chief of the 1st Army Group at a young age, touched his chin and asked with doubts written on his face.

In fact, when attacking the Holy Demon Empire, the main force of Elanhill had already discovered that the enemy's road conditions were very bad.

In order to make up for the poor road conditions, Iran Hill is frantically laying railways and building roads. On the one hand, it is also equipping front-line troops with more cars to make up for the lack of transportation capacity.

However, transport vehicles are always insufficient, and one truckload of fuel to the front line has to be used up to deliver another truckload.

For the attrition of supporting a large army group, it is obviously very uneconomical to transport it by car and airplane.

Walter also clearly remembered that in order to reduce the cost of the attack, His Majesty the Emperor endured the Dorson Empire for more than half a year before launching the southward campaign, which captured the entire Dorson region in one fell swoop, and achieved the myth of the rise of Iran Hill.

But now, in the Holy Demon Empire, Walter deeply felt the unfriendliness of the local environment.

The roads in the Holy Demon Empire are actually in very bad condition, most of the roads are paved with dirt, not even roads.

The 1st Army Group's offensive under such road conditions was itself severely constrained.

"Originally, we applied for 400 transport vehicles, but I don't know why this time, none of them were approved for us." The chief of staff shook his head, looked at the slightly messy tabletop, and complained: "Our transport convoy is already overwhelmed, and in this case, there is no difference between continuing the offensive and committing suicide. ”

"There will be a shortage of fuel for the troops, and there will be a shortage of transport vehicles on the Air Force side to move their field airfields...... We are now at the limit of our push. He pointed to the tipping point on the map and said to General Walter: "Advance another 50 kilometers or so, and we will collapse on our own." ”

"If we attack the Gushan defense line according to the current situation, we will be killing ourselves. However, I don't think that Your Majesty, who has always attached importance to logistics and supplies, would make such a mistake. Walter stared at the map, still pondering.

After encircling Ronshek, the troops of the 1st Army Group and the 3rd Army Group did not even rush to attack, they just stood by and adapted their communication systems on the one hand, and on the other hand waited for supplies that belonged to them.

The General Headquarters promised to provide them with sufficient supplies, which was a prerequisite for the Reich to order the 1st and 3rd Army Groups to attack, and even the other Army Groups that followed.

This offensive order came from a dozen days ago, when Iran Hill was suddenly conceited and at the same time preparing to launch a large counterattack in three directions.

You must know that this is not an ordinary counterattack operation, but a large-scale counterattack operation on all fronts. In order to prepare for such a battle, all fronts are frantically rushing to transport their own supplies.

But even so, the materials needed from the front line are still pitiful, and even the trucks that transport these materials are still scarce.

Except for the Southern Front, which was reluctantly scraped together 4,000 new cars by the Imperial General Staff, formed some new car transport regiments, and supported the offensive of Modryer and Coria, the remaining Western Front and the Southwestern Front were not replenished with a single new car.

In other words, even if these troops have enough supplies, they don't have enough transportation capacity to transport them to the front line to support their own troops.

"I hope that this time, His Majesty the Emperor can solve our problem......" The chief of staff of the 1st Army Group said with his hands on his chest and a somewhat heavy tone.

"It's not hope, His Majesty the Emperor will definitely solve our problem!" General Walter emphasized, with a firm opening.

……

On the brand new railway bridge erected over the San Lunos River, west of the Magic City of Ludnal that had survived after the surrender, the infantry of the 20th Army Group, crowded, carrying their weapons, slowly crossed the 30-meter-wide bridge.

These soldiers, who have been serving for more than a year, have participated in very few battles. Because they had been following behind the 1st and 2nd armies, receiving the task of occupying the city, maintaining local law and order, and not much of a storm.

Moreover, these units themselves are not very elite, and they are generally only equipped with Mauser 98K rifles, as well as M4 tanks and other weapons.

It can be said that these troops are actually World War II-level troops, and the tasks they perform are not too important tasks.

After all, no matter how against the sky, it is impossible for Alan Hill to fully arm a modern army of 10 million in a short period of time.

Therefore, it is natural that in fact, Iran Hill, which has mobilized 10 million combat troops, can really be called the main force, only about 2 million to 3 million people. Most of the rest are reserve units like the 20th Army, which are full of low-threat missions.

"What's that?" Suddenly realizing that the sunlight above his head was blocked by something, a soldier squinted his eyes and looked up to see a behemoth flying above his head.

This behemoth is almost 200 meters long and more than 100 meters wide. The huge body is like a battleship, covering the sky and the sun in the true sense, bringing a strong sense of oppression to everyone who sees it.

"Oh my God...... a captain didn't care about restraining his troops, looked up at the huge flying object that he had never seen and heard before, and subconsciously shuddered.

These soldiers, who were equipped with M42 steel helmets, most of which were about the same as the German army in World War II, all stopped, looked at what flew over their heads, and let out a sigh of admiration from time to time.

They didn't know what this huge thing was, but they could still feel a sense of pride like they had never felt before.

"Long live Iran Hill!" I don't know who shouted first, and then tens of thousands of troops shouted frantically at the sky. Everyone was shouting hysterically, and at this moment they were sincerely proud of their homeland.

Behind this behemoth flying in the sky is another behemoth, which looks just as large as it is, and even has the same appearance!

Between the two behemoths, there are also two helicopters. These helicopters are outdated UH-1s, hovering between two huge aircraft that resemble hills.

Farther away, another equally huge flying machine and the two of its kind in front of it lined up in a straight line, looking even more imposing.

"If we can't win...... Then just die. The commander of the 20th Army tilted his head and watched the fifth huge mountain peak fly over his headquarters, and seriously sighed to the chief of staff beside him.

"yes...... When did we become so strong...... "Even if I saw it with my own eyes, the chief of staff still had a strong sense of unreality. He also tilted his head, agreeing with his commander's words.

……

In Seris City, Chris looked at Vivian proudly, as well as the stunned Desel and the others, and said with a smile: "You think I'm working on a super battleship, but I really only make a battleship?" ”

He clasped his hands on his chest, held his chin high, and said sarcastically, "People in the wizarding world, they see things too one-sidedly. Let a castle fly, let a city fly...... It's just to be a battleship to fight to the death with the enemy? Don't they feel like it's too wasteful? ”

Speaking of this, Chris shook his head again: "Actually, I don't blame them, after all, they don't rely on logistics as much as Iran Hill, and they don't have as many advanced weapons and equipment as Iran Hill." So after they had a floating castle, the first thing they thought of was to use it as a warship to show off their might on the front line. ”

Chris pulled out a hand and pointed it at himself, "We don't need to do this!" So we can play a little bit more comfortably. ”

"So, you took all the steel plates that were abandoned in the port of Ferry City for shipbuilding, welded them together, made a big steel plate, and then carved a floating circle to make them float...... Transporting massive quantities of supplies? Vivien asked, raising an eyebrow.

She thinks that what is going on in Chris's head is really terrible, he can always think of aspects that others can't think of, and solve problems that others can't solve.

Since the floating magic circle can make a castle of hundreds of thousands or even millions of tons fly, it can also make the same weight of materials fly.

This thing is much easier to use than an airship or anything like that, as long as the magic energy is sufficient, it can run almost infinitely.

Because you don't need to go to war, you don't need too much intensity. It's okay to barely keep the shelves from falling apart, so the technical difficulty is also very low. All you need is a few power-ups that allow them to fly forward faster and be able to turn, and you're all set.

The terrible thing is that such a cheap super transport plane can transport as many and heavy supplies as a castle to the front line at a time - enough for an army to squander for a long time.

Moreover, it can transport supplies from Seris directly to the front line, without the need for transit stations and without significant energy consumption.

"The only downside is that it's not strong...... As soon as the enemy attacks, it crashes with billions of gold worth of supplies. Chris nodded and said to Vivien.

"That's not a disadvantage at all, is it?" Vivien glanced at Chris with disdain, because her T800 god puppet was on these transport floating giants at this moment.

And above Vivien's god puppet are dozens of air force fighters responsible for protecting these transport giants.

Who can attack these transport giants, escorted by a dozen super-god puppets and dozens of fighter jets?
