Chapter 31: Pondering and Fearing
The roar of an airplane formation came from far and near, and the flickering light signals were like mischievous stars.
The air battle came to a complete end, and the air battle that began at noon lasted until late at night, and this should be the last formation of the Chinese returning home.
Foster retracted his gaze in annoyance and scorned him fiercely: "The Air Force is a bunch of idiots, gathering the essence of the entire Continent of God (the Western Continent is also known as the Continent of God), but they can't compete with the damn China!" ”
This large-scale air battle broke Foster's heart.
The air battle is not only in the eyes of the imperial army, but also in the eyes of the glorious ranger division, and the huge air duel makes the blood of both sides boiling, but the final result can only be a happy family and a sad family.
The Crusader's plane was like a beautiful meteor, constantly falling to the ground, and at first the Rangers were still on the ground cheering for their allies, but after continuous defeat, the Rangers did not even have the heart to rescue the pilots.
It's too miserable - at least 13:1 battle damage, maybe more than that, just in the time when Foster observed, he saw at least 30 Crusader fighters fall or explode into fireworks in the air, while the Chinese Air Force, only one fell.
Clay, who was in a group with Foster, sighed helplessly: "No way, do you think the First Empire in the world was blown out?" Compared with the Air Force, people are a generation ahead of us! Compared with the navy, the tonnage of people is a lot higher than that of our Continent of Gods, not to mention, the equipment is even ahead of an era! ”
"Than the Army?" Clay shook his head and said in disappointment: "One battalion can resist one of our regiments!" ”
Foster said unconvinced: "The Crusaders have the entire continent as their backing!" China is just a country, I don't believe that we can't kill a China by gathering the power of our Divine Continent? ”
Clay is a 42-year-old veteran, in the era of magic crystal weapons, 42-year-old veterans are not only extremely rare in China, even in Western countries, they are also rare, and the reason why Clay can become a part of the rarity is because of his rich war experience.
This is not the first time Clay has set foot on the land bridge.
This was his third time serving on the Continental Bridge – almost inconceivable for a soldier who had served on the Continental Bridge, whether Crusader or Imperial, on a five-year period, which meant that Clay had spent half of his more than 20 years of military service.
After ten years of hostility, Clay frantically gathered any information about China that he could learn.
To put it bluntly, Clay is an expert on China.
"Can't kill it, the power of the entire Divine Continent can't kill a huge China," Clay sighed: "The more you know about this country, the more terrified you will be, the war potential of this country is desperate, see those planes in the sky?" ”
The flying formation had long since disappeared at this moment, but Foster still looked at the dark sky from afar.
"I heard that as long as China is willing, it will be able to roll off the assembly line at least 50 planes a day, and this is not the case of full operation, the huge war resources of that country are desperate, and it is said that the materials they have in reserve can be produced without external support for two consecutive years to meet all the materials needed for high-intensity warfare."
"They have a huge reserve force, as long as they are called, they can easily arm five times the troops of the standing army, officers, they are not lacking, the army, there is no shortage either, equipment, they are even more lacking, I don't know what this terrifying beast will look like after it really exerts its strength, but I believe that as long as it really exerts its strength, we will be easily swept away by them like garbage!"
Young people are always full of self-righteous perceptions, and so is Foster.
Merrick is one of the great powers in the West, and Foster, who joined the Glorious Ranger Division of the Stubborn Stone Legion, always thought that his country was extremely powerful, because in many wars and conflicts on the Western continent, Merrick has always been the winner, and the winner has won cleanly, so in Foster's view, China is just more people than Merrick and more troops than Merrick.
China has a population of nearly 2 billion and an army of nearly 10 million.
Merrick is not bad, with a huge population of 600 million and an invincible army of 7 million!
So Clay's words seemed like a rotten cognition to the ears of young Foster:
"We are the side blessed by God, and under God's guidance, we will definitely defeat China easily! Uncle Clay, defeat is only temporary, victory, it will inevitably belong to you - it doesn't matter if the air force is defeated, there are many countries on our God Continent, as long as each country sends one-tenth of the air force, it can easily crush China! ”
"And as long as each country sends one percent of the army, China's so-called huge army is just a joke under the majesty of the gods......"
Clay looked at the fanatical Foster, and his heart was cold.
The decision-making level will not care about the life of cannon fodder, so they easily let the war break out - the area controlled by the western forces of the land bridge makes them think that they can afford to lose, while the poor worms at the lower level are easily brainwashed, and the irrational fanaticism fills their hearts at all.
God?
God's Blessing?
Clay sighed that the nightmare of the Western countries is precisely the damned god - this is the unified perception of people of insight, but whether it is light or dark, they have done a very good job of brainwashing, and this perception has become an outlier to be burned at the stake......
Just like Foster in front of him, even if he is angry because of the failure of the Air Force, he still does not think about it from the source, in Clay's eyes, the failure of the Air Force is because of his own incompetence, and he will not consider anything else!
When the Western Continent was still cleaning up and burning those alien races, China had absorbed the knowledge of the alien race, and when the Western Continent was still praying for God's blessing, China had already explored the origin of magic.
For the sake of mystery, the two forces of light and darkness have always claimed that the essence of magic is a gift from God, but at this time, China has explored the key to the magic crystal civilization from the origin of magic.
The Magic Crystal Civilization has risen, and the defeat of the war has made the two major forces of light and darkness accept the facts, but the bloated institutions and the fig leaf of God have always made the West always lag behind the tide of the Magic Crystal Civilization, and the aircraft was the first to appear in China, the missiles were the first to appear in China, and the radar was also the first to appear in China-
The West has finally caught up with these, but the fig leaf of God is still hindering the West's exploration of the magic crystal civilization.
"I hope God bless us to see the world clearly......" Clay muttered in a low voice, and Foster on the side thought that Clay was moved by what he said, and couldn't help but smile knowingly.
……
The partition wall has ears since ancient times.
When Clay and Foster were communicating in a low voice, not far from them, Ye Xiao was lurking first.
For him, this kind of lurking is really laid-back.
The two people in front of him were the eyes of the Ranger Division outside, although Ye Xiao wanted to erase them directly and leave here, but after thinking about it, Ye Xiao decided to sneak down.
It's easy to take out the sentry, but it's easier for the enemy to catch up with you based on the sentry's death, but if the sentry stays alive and sound, it's dark under the enemy's lights—enemies who are looking for themselves won't think they'll be hiding in front of their sentry.
It's a very simple psychological blind spot, but it's very practical.
It was also because of this that Ye Xiao heard an enemy's fear of the empire.
Clay's words, Ye Xiao didn't think there was anything wrong, if it was just a Western continent, even if the Bright Sect and the Dark Demon Temple joined forces without any guilt, it would not be difficult for the empire to deal with it, and it could even collapse the Western theocracy.
In the early days of the war in the dream, even if the imperial army had a traitor like the CIA, it was still pressing the crusaders and beating them violently.
The empire was defeated in the end, but not in the hands of Western powers!
Amethyst's betrayal of the alliance, the crushing of the new tactics of the Japanese alliance, and the isolation and helplessness of the whole world are the fundamental reasons for the final end of the empire!
In the early days of the war, the Japanese League used new tactics to crush unexpectedly, causing the imperial army to lose as much as eighty percent of its pre-war equipment reserves! It also caused the central theater of the land bridge to fall into a state of isolation, which finally led to the loss of the land bridge.
Since then, the flames of war have burned within the territory of the Empire, and the Empire's war potential has been weakened, which is the main reason for the final war of the Empire!
"This time, even if the whole world is the enemy, the imperial army will definitely not fail!"
Ye Xiao was extremely convinced in his heart.
The sentinel's exchange finally stopped slowly, and the sarcastic prayer was nothing more than the last murmur of an enlightened man in the West in Ye Xiao's opinion.
"It's a pity that the pace of war can't be stopped......" Ye Xiao's thoughts flew wildly, and he couldn't help but think of the discussion of a group of staff officers in the dream:
Once the imperial army completely occupies the land bridge, the Western forces will be completely stuck by the neck, and the theocracy that rules the Western forces will inevitably fall under the counterattack of the imperial forces.
The imperial power, which has been suppressed by the divine power for countless years, will definitely completely bury the divine power, and the West will usher in a new life.
Although this is beneficial to the empire in the short term, in fact, it is not, the fall of the decaying theocracy is not a good thing for the empire, although the empire can achieve everything in the western continent in the short term, but once the western continent is reborn, it will inevitably gradually confront the empire.
At that time, Ye Xiao didn't understand, but Ye Xiao, who had experienced the fourteen-year war, now understood - although a nascent West did not align with the interests of the empire, in the short term, it had amazing benefits.
Capital needs this benefit, and so does the empire.
It is not only the army that drives the wheels of war, but also capital.
The 303 incident is inevitable in the dream, but in reality, the top of the empire must have been prepared, it can be completely avoided, and the pace of war can be postponed!
But the 303 incident broke out violently, and the war broke out, why?
Can't the wise generals understand? The later the war breaks out, the better for the Empire!
Don't the high-ranking people in charge of the empire understand that the better prepared the empire, the higher the probability of winning the war? You can even say in a heart-wrenching way:
If war can be eliminated, the hegemony of the empire will be more stable!
But war broke out.
Why?
The military needs war, only war can make the rank of marshal appear in the army again, and only war can create a large number of generals and make meritorious achievements!
Capital also needs war - the gold-swallowing beast of war, the huge resources of the empire's reserves, in the eyes of capital, are yellow gold coins!
Only war can completely replace all the equipment of the army, and at the same time, it can arm more troops and spend more military funds.
213 years......
In the 213 seizure of power, the royal family chose to back down, and the aristocracy also chose to back down, and the National Assembly deserved its name.
Capital!
The House of Representatives, which represents the people, inevitably fell into the influence of capital in the end, Ye Xiao never cared about these dirty things, but when he thought about it slowly, all kinds of dirty things slowly came to mind.
I hate politics......
Ye Xiao looked at the two sentinels like stone men, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief, politics is not clean, since it spoke, the politics that represents power has wrapped the most high-spirited continuations in the world, even if you put a coat on it, inside, it is always the dirtiest!
"The army cannot be interfered with by capital!"
"The interests of the state are definitely not the interests of capital!"
"A hot-blooded man who fights for the country should not be induced by dirty capital!"
After Ye Xiao slowly made up his mind, he suddenly had an infinite desire for power.
Only when you are in power, only when you have power, can you be qualified to talk about this, and now your own oath is nothing more than a mayfly shaking a tree.
It's time to go back......
Ye Xiao slowly dispelled all the things in his mind, and released the warrior's self again, like an eagle falcon's gaze at the two sentinels.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
Before he could make a move, the explosion suddenly sounded, and without even looking back, Ye Xiao could see the flickering firelight.
That's a big missile attack!
The roar of the missile kicked off the roar, and the missiles continued to fall from the sky, ending the most brilliant missile career in the terrifying explosions and dazzling fireball mushroom clouds, along with the passing and the engulfed soul.
The Imperial Army has bombed Arianata!
Ye Xiao had already been mentally prepared for this, because he knew the character of the imperial army too well, and from the end of the air battle, Ye Xiao knew that there would definitely be a bombing tonight.
Sure enough, the bombing came—and luckily I left Alinata!
The bombardment of missiles kicked off, and the roar of the group of planes rang out on time after that, and the flashing signal lights made the whole sky seem to be full of stars, only this time the stars brought boundless destruction and death.
Thousands of planes attacked Alinata, bombarding the troops of the Stonestone Legion that had arrived not long ago.
The earth is trembling, the world is whimpering.
And the two sentinels were also completely shocked by the magnificent bombardment, and could only look at the hellish Alinata.
From now on, there will never be a city called Arinata.
Ye Xiao had seen a scale even bigger than this, so he quickly calmed down, and the two stupid enemies who fell into a daze were simply lambs waiting to be slaughtered!
After slowly touching in, Ye Xiao made a move.
The guard coefficient of a person's body will plummet in fear, and Clay, who was very tricky in Ye Xiao's eyes, didn't even come back to his senses in fear before he died, and the moment the dagger wiped his throat, Clay made a reaction that a veteran should have-
He stretched out his hand and tried to hug Ye Xiao fiercely, and died together!
But it was too late, Ye Xiao had already wiped Foster's throat at this time, and easily kicked Clay away with one kick.
Foster, who fantasizes about the coming of the Empire, and Clay, who thinks he is sober, report to their gods almost at the same time.
This time the movement of touching the whistle was a rough mess, it didn't look like touching the whistle at all, Ye Xiao had to be careful, because he smelled a strong smell of blood from this middle-aged soldier's body, this was definitely a veteran of a hundred battles, so when he made a move, he went all out without mercy!
But the explosion that never broke became Ye Xiao's biggest cover.
The Sentinel died, and Arinata was caught in the midst of the bombardment.
No one will follow in their footsteps anymore.
