Strong winds swept the clouds, but there were no petrels soaring over the sea. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Thick dark clouds seemed to indicate that the weather was really bad today, but for all of Edwards, today was a day of despair.

Listening to the rumbling in the air should have been thunder, but at the moment it was the sound of huge engines from the Royal Floating Battleship of Brittania.

These behemoths proudly raised their cannons and floated in the air about a thousand meters above the ground, anti-gravity magic arrays and various defensive spells unblocking them from the air, not to mention that there were countless Breton soldiers advancing under their feet.

The army is huge and desperate.

Anyone facing a full-scale attack of more than 100,000 modernized troops will feel very terrifying, which means that the opponent must have mobilized millions of human resources.

"I never realized that I was commanding an army of 100,000." Lorraine, who looked a little incredulous, stood on the deck of the Skyfire and muttered to herself.

At this moment, he is wearing a full set of general's uniforms, medals and costumes set off the majesty of this commander, and the slightly pseudo-girl's face still looks good at the femininity, leaving only the toughness of a soldier.

To a certain extent......

The rebels were eventually dealt with, and although the main leaders were not captured, Brittania did not have much time to waste, and this time the Northern Expedition was too long.

DR 1829 is coming to an end from the Children's Day Offensive to the present, and if this campaign is not completed by next spring, the consequences will be absolutely terrible.

More than 200,000 troops were mobilized, of which 100,000 were the regular army with complete training, but the casualties were also not small, and the veterans and officers of each unit suffered serious losses, and the combat effectiveness declined very rapidly because of the replenishment of troops.

Not to mention that every day of war is extended, the pressure on logistics is terrible, and the 100,000 Breton army continues to look mighty and majestic in the northern expedition, which requires hundreds of thousands of people to provide logistical supplies, and these people also have to consume materials.

Before the occupation zone is officially digested next year, it will also only devour materials, but the strategic materials produced are very scarce, and the only relatively large human resources are of little use to Britan's pressure.

Didn't you see that the logistical pressure is too great, and everyone can't supply it when they eat spam every day, and they still come?

In fact, the closer you get to the city-state, the more brutal the Breton army's approach becomes, and although there must be Lorraine's mistake in this, there is no way not to do so.

Logistical danger!

Able-bodied young men and women could still be used as servants and slaves, but what about the non-laborers?

Go into the "bathroom", let the gnolls eat it, experiment, or simply slaughter the city!

"Commander, there is a communication from the vanguard troops, it is already close to the city, may I ask ......"

"Why do you want to ask this! Aren't they all laid out before the attack begins? Lorraine waved his hand impatiently, and the officer opened his mouth to think that he should persuade him again.

"Sir, there are at least 20,000 Edwards there, and if you do that, will public opinion be too bad?"

"Where is there any public opinion?"

Lorraine shook his head regretfully, "You, you're still too young and uninformed, there was no so-called public opinion in the place where the war started, and the people can only hear what we want them to hear." ”

In fact, this is the practice of the state in a state of war, absolute control of public opinion by the way to create some good news that is pleasing to hear, as for the authenticity, who cares!

If the war is won, then everything does not matter, the population will be fanatical users, the authorities will continue to try, but if the war is lost...... You can't hear or see the shock.

Don't you see that the two descendants of the flower family in the earth era are fighting against each other in the position of the unification, and the ruling area under the control of a bald head is simply one victory after another, and more than one million rabbits have been annihilated in just one year, and your efficiency is too high, right?

Of course, from later research, it has long been known that the exchange of war losses is obviously reversed, and the bald head is the unlucky person who has been annihilated by millions of troops, but many people don't know it at all.

The information is not equal, fooling the people, failure is turned into advancement, and victory is joyful.

"So, it's a shame to contradict you, talk casually, be careful that the black dog is looking for you to eat pork chop rice."

"Yes, yes, sir, what are we going to do?"

"Hey, in vain...... Forget it, the vanguard doesn't have much artillery, order the fleet to prepare for shelling, let the lads in front report the coordinates, right? ”

"With shelling?" The officer looked at the commander, then at the hideous sacred 152-mm enchanted cannon on the Tianhuo battery, and hurriedly went to find someone with a cold war.

……

Pioneer troops, on the outskirts of the town.

The unnamed town of Edward in the telescope looks a little chaotic, full of people running around, and of course more militiamen with muskets in their hands.

Because of the raiding and chaos of the city-state, the Northern Union has effectively dissolved, and the slashing and slaughter of Dane State has finally quieted down, and the people of Lovely Dehua definitely do not want to experience a neighbor experience.

The sea of blood is monstrous! Uprising! Great war! And the terrible bath!

The Breton soldiers are a nightmare, and no one has long believed in the demonized propaganda that they will not do anything (and indeed they are).

Since the city-state is treacherous and Brittania is unkind, then the people of Edward, stand up! Fight for freedom and democracy!

Tricksters.

Most of the leaders were the largest warlords or bandits in the private armed forces, and they did want to fight against Britannia as leaders, but the vast majority of them were playing other roles.

"Fight and surrender."

"Show our determination and strength to make Brittania recognize our position and dominion!"

"Only the Edwards can rule here, and without our permission, the southerners will be rough!"

Is there a familiar feeling of this ghostly look?

It was also the tragic era of flower planters in the early twentieth century of the Earth Age, warlords, civil wars, and human suffering.

But alas, there are no bald heads and rabbits here, only brutal Breton Imperial soldiers!

“…… Coordinates XXX, XXX...... Confirm duplicate ......"

"It has been confirmed, be prepared for shock, please stay at least two kilometers away from the shelling site to avoid accidental injury."

"Understood!"

The commander of the vanguard who put down the communicator breathed a sigh of relief, and by the way said sorry for the nameless town in the distance, "Whoever told you that you are unwilling to surrender and unwilling to lay down your arms, then you have to be asked to die." ”

"Sir, shouldn't we go far and be careful of being accidentally injured by artillery!"

Think about it, it's the same reason, if you are killed by your own people, it will be too bad!

So, the vanguard took refuge in a safe position, waited for ten minutes, and heard a shrill cry in the air—and then burst into flames from the small town! (To be continued.) )
