Chapter 13: Prelude to the Collision of Plains

The Osville Empire, a peninsular power located on the other side of the Perez Sea in the north of the Gultoka Empire, was separated from the Gultoka Empire by the sea and bordered by the Union of GLP.

Unlike the island nations regarding continental shelf territory, the Oswel Empire, which had a weaker land army, cut off its desire for land territory after its defeat in the 1925 land war with the GLP Alliance. Even if it was a temporary surname, the country had to abandon its eastward expansion after suffering that kind of fiasco.

Even if it is true that the expansion of the east is faster and more effective, many things cannot be talked about if you do not win.

So, after a few years of recuperation, the Oswelt Empire once again wanted to seek a foothold on the mainland, but because the fiasco of 1925 had not completely shaken off the shadow of what they had experienced, they set their sights on the Gultoka Empire, which was across the sea from them.

They also knew very well that the national strength of the Gultoka Empire was generally a little stronger than them, but the gap was not very large.

Mainly in terms of land forces, the Osville Empire's land strength is somewhat stronger than that of the Gultoka Empire. The gap in this area lies primarily in the underwriting of armored forces.

The armored forces of the Osville Empire have been developed for almost twenty years, so Zhang Shixin encountered the heavy tanks and T-44 medium tanks that the Osville Empire aided to the coalition forces in the Battle of Gershalin, which could not effectively defend against the opponent's shells.

The Gultoka Empire refers more to the tanks transferred to them by Zhang Shixin as a new type of technical bridge, so, in a certain aspect, although the armored forces of the Gultoka Empire are more advanced in terms of surname, the role they can play is not more inclined to the efficiency of the battlefield than the armored forces of the Osville Empire.

Therefore, in this regard, although the army strength of the Gultoka Empire is also very strong, it is still inferior to the Osville Empire.

As for the Kingdom of Kapani, it chose a path for the development of armored forces that focused on mobility and firepower.

Zhang Shixin once got a piece of information, which said that it was the latest medium tank destroyer of the Capani Kingdom, codenamed KPL-T36, mainly based on the Black Panther tank suspension system and armor protection that Zhang Shixin transferred to them, and the use of a combustion engine, the power has also been improved to a certain extent.

However, when Zhang Shixin saw the draft drawings of this thing, he couldn't help but squirt out the water, because this thing was a cheetah with a living warhead behind it.

The warhead uses a vertically inclined 15-degree armor plate with a thickness of 85mm, and the equivalent of such armor can also be about 110mm, but Zhang Shixin knows that such armor protection cannot face the armored forces of the Osville Empire at all.

Although the alliance between the two countries will not necessarily be at war with the Osville Empire now, Zhang Shixin, who has fought with the armored vehicles of this country, knows very well that the tank destroyers of the Capani Kingdom are outdated.

The surname can be about the same as the cheetah, that is, the mobile surname is a little worse.

However, the best result of the Cheetah against those heavy tanks is to exchange one for one, and sometimes it is not even possible to do such a thing.

He underestimated the military strength of the other world a little.

In a certain way, the Osville nation has even mastered some of the technical level of the game's tier 8 tanks.

Of course, many places are not as perverted as the full level 8 tech tree.

It's like the Type 59 in the game is level eight, but, in fact, it's post-war technology.

Therefore, Zhang Shixin thinks that he still has some advantages, at least, although he does not have the firepower of the Type 59-1 tank, but the 59 in the form of gold coins is at least a grade with the T-54/55.

Both are post-war tanks, although they still have such and such shortcomings, but excluding the kind of E series that is a bit ahead of the curve in Zhang Shixin's eyes, the surname of the post-war tank can always have a leading advantage.

However, in contrast to this situation, Zhang Shixin was very uneasy, because he was very uneasy about the country of Oswell, after all, military assistance had been carried out, which showed that the other party had its own perfect plan.

But all of a sudden, that's the case......

Zhang Shixin didn't understand what the higher-ups of the Osville Empire had, because right now, the Northern Legions of the Kapani Kingdom and the Gultoka Empire were crushing several small principalities that had no ability to resist, and it was impossible for him to betray his vassal states to this point.

Such a situation, to a large extent, can represent the credibility of a country.

Unless there is a greater interest, it is impossible for a country to sell its credibility.

Wait a minute......

Is there a greater good?

Zhang Shixin, who was lying on the hospital bed, suddenly thought of a very important thing, that is, the Osville Empire had a situation where he thought he could get more benefits, so he would not save several small principalities.

He stopped Hayley, who was peeling an apple, and asked her to send a telegram to William, asking him to relay the recent military garrison in the northern part of the Gultoka Empire.

"Hurry up, there's going to be a big problem." Zhang Shixin didn't understand his actions very well, and Hailey, who was a little stunned, roared.

When the latter came to his senses, he pouted and left the room.

"You seem to have something in mind." Sinia's figure appeared next to Zhang Shixin's bed, then picked up the apple, and said with some amusement: "You yell at the other party like this, aren't you afraid that she will despise you?" ”

"......" Zhang Shixin looked at Sinia, and said after a while: "You already knew that this would happen?" ”

"It should be said...... It's you guys who are stupid. Many things come out of nowhere, and they may not be without cause. However, you didn't think of such a thing until now, and I have to say that your vigilance is too high. Well, I thought you'd be thinking about your own business and not anything else. Cynia smiled.

Zhang Shixin looked at Sinia speechlessly, smiled helplessly, and said after a while: "You are hurting me." ”

"Who knows?" Hinia straightened her face and said, "What if the worst happens?" ”

"I don't know, but since some things have already begun, you might as well move on." Zhang Shixin leaned his back against the wall, and then said, "How much money do I have now?" ”

"What do you want to do?"

"If you don't have money...... the corners of Zhang Shixin's mouth suddenly showed a hint of arc......

……

As Zhang Shixin had predicted, the garrisons in many parts of the northern part of the Gultoka Empire were mobilized to fight in those small principalities. This means that the northern part of the Gultoka Empire is now an undefended area.

These include several very important ports as well as mines.

After knowing this news, Zhang Shixin hugged Hailey, who was still a little unswerving, and then whispered in the other party's ear: "Hailey, I have one more thing I want you to help me." ”

For this kind of kissing action, Hailey felt that her body was very hot, but she still soberly asked Zhang Shixin what was going on.

Zhang Shixin smiled, and then said, "Are you interested in doing something very fun?" ”

Zhang Shixin whispered his plan, and then looked at Hailey, who was already a little dumbfounded, and the corners of his mouth curled.

……

That night, William was woken up by several guards and received a telegram that Ronnie Wayne's vault had been ransacked by Zhang Shixin and Hailey.

William was a little surprised by this, but he quickly recovered, after all, he was well aware of his brother-in-law's reputation...... It's really not good in this regard, and this time I pulled my sister into the water......

"Hehe......" William shook his head and smiled bitterly, then tore up the message.

He said to a few of the guards, "It's not a big deal, if Ronnie Vynne's finances can't be put in order, let's get money from other regions." ”

Several of the guards were ordered to leave William's bedchamber.

William lay on the bed again, remembering that when he had a meeting this afternoon, after getting Hailey's message, he knew that Zhang Shixin might have discovered something.

He didn't have any dissatisfaction with Zhang Shixin's approach, but wondered why the other party didn't tell him in advance.

However, he was quickly relieved, after all, if he knew about such a thing, there might be some surprise.

Money or something, it will only be meaningful when it is used where it should be used, and he knows this very well.

Therefore, Zhang Shixin and Hailey ransacked Ronnie Wayne's vault, and William didn't care at all, after all, he knew very well that Zhang Shixin would not do something that was uncertain or meaningless.

Although that money is a lot, it will also bring a little trouble to the Gultoka Empire, but William will not take that money into his eyes.

However, he thought of two very serious problems at the same time.

One is Zhang Shixin's current situation, why did he have to support his weak body to do such a thing?

Second, why did Hailey agree to Zhang Shixin's request?

William couldn't think of the answer to either of these things, and then there was another knock on the door to his dorm......

……

Hai Li, who turned back to Yanjing overnight, remembered that Zhang Shixin was on crutches and with the support of several subordinates, he entered the back of the armored car.

Although she may be scolded by her brother for what she did in the afternoon, she was more worried about Zhang Shixin's body.

After all, Zhang Shixin's situation made her very worried about him going to the battlefield again.

She didn't want Zhang Shixin to have anything to do, Zhang Shixin was injured this time, and De Perry and the others united because they couldn't get to Ronnie Wayne and asked her why she let Zhang Shixin do such a thing.

Although she felt that she was innocent, she also knew very well what Zhang Shixin meant to her and them......

So she endured these things in silence.

Zhang Shixin set off again this time, she didn't agree to live or die, but she couldn't say anything about Zhang Shixin.

When Zhang Shixin repeatedly promised to run away if she couldn't fight, she still gave up her plan to save Zhang Shixin.

Although she and Zhang Shixin are lovers, she is also the princess of the Gultoka Empire.

Therefore, she can't justifiably stop Zhang Shixin's actions.

Because, this is also her home......

Looking at the direction of the convoy, Hailey left tears, and then silently prayed for Zhang Shixin in the night spring breeze......

………………………………………………… Dividing line ..........................................

"Aren't you afraid that your family will be hanged by the Empire?" Looking at dozens of subordinates surrounding him in the conference room of the police station, an old policeman angrily questioned his subordinates.

"Director, we are doing this because of our family...... Hope you understand. A middle-aged policeman showed a helpless look and continued: "The other party also promised that if we surrendered, the city would not be destroyed. ”

"......" The old policeman heard this, and after being silent for a while, he sighed softly: "Such words...... I wish I could stay here for a while as I am. ”

"Director......" The middle-aged policeman naturally knew the meaning of what the old policeman said, and he wanted to say something, but he saw the determined look in the eyes of the person he respected the most, and he finally waved his hand, and then left the conference room with everyone.

When he closed the door, he couldn't help but cry, because the old policeman was not only the person he respected the most, but also his father.

Their family is a police officer, and in a sense, they are a family of policemen.

His father was very strict with him, but he also knew very well that this was his father's hope that he would be able to do a better job in the police position.

"Dad, grandpa, he'......" A young policeman walked up behind him and whispered, "It's not going to happen, is it?" ”

"......" he shook his head, for he knew exactly what kind of man his father was.

That's why he took such a course of action to save his father's life.

But......

He failed......

Yes, he failed, because from the conference room came the words: "Long live the Gultoka Empire!" and a single gunshot that followed......

The middle-aged policeman collapsed in front of the door of the conference room, and after dozens of policemen glanced at each other, they all found the helplessness and anger in each other's eyes......

At this time, a dense number of naval ships appeared on the sea, and their flag was the naval flag of Oswell.

And this city is the largest commercial port city in the north of the Gultoka Empire - Modersn.

……

On the bridge of a battleship, an Osville field marshal, sitting next to the captain, chatted about something.

Then a herald handed him a telegram, he glanced at it, and said lightly: "The matter has been successful, and we can land from Moldesen without any scruples." ”

"Your Excellency Marshal, are you not afraid that the other party will react by doing this?" The captain was also aware of the marshal's plans, and he was worried that those people would report such a situation to the upper echelons of the Gultoka Empire.

"No, it's impossible, you don't know how attached these people are to their homeland. And more importantly, with these people alone, they can't stop our attack, so I did this not only to give us a chance, but also to give the other side a choice that they don't have to think about at all. Like you're one of those cops, and when you get the news of our big attack, do you do something that doesn't even count as a mantis arm blocking a car? The old marshal said lightly, as if this matter had nothing to do with them.

The captain nodded, and then asked another question: "If the Gultoka Empire finds out about such a situation, how should we deal with it?" ”

"That's what we're going to war with, and in order not to give the other side time to react, we have to take control of these areas and the shipping lanes in one fell swoop. When the other side has gathered troops, we will meet the enemy with one hand. The marshal continued: "Unlike those regular troops, I pay more attention to a man named Zhang Shixin, maybe ......"

"He could be the biggest variable in our all-out operation." The marshal couldn't help but think of this man's evaluation, because he felt that this man was completely capable of becoming a famous general and not the president of a security company.

"I have also heard of this person, he has a little strength, but compared to you, the Marshal who personally led the army to repel the Pross Alliance Army that invaded the country, you with brilliant achievements, his record is not as good as your record is even one-tenth." The captain complimented the marshal's exploits.

When the marshal heard this, a smile appeared on his face, but he knew very well that in the war that year, he took advantage of the light enemy of the GLP Alliance Army, and used all the troops at hand to give the enemy a big reversal.

Therefore, he found that Zhang Shixin also seemed to like defensive operations, and there were many examples of winning more with less.

Although the quality of the commanders of those enemy forces is not very good, Zhang Shixin's ability to fight to this point should not be underestimated.

With the intuition of a soldier, he felt that this Zhang Shixin was not the person who was rewarded for nepotism as those in the empire said.

Let's ask, if it is really as those people say, how can Zhang Shixin be appreciated by the old emperor?

"It would be nice if there was more information, but both countries deliberately downplayed Zhang Shixin's information, which is obviously a measure to protect each other." The marshal's fear of Zhang Shixin was no less than that of the famous generals in the alliance between the two countries, so he had always hoped to get accurate information about this person.

However, the Osville Empire did not have too many manpower in this regard, and secondly, it did not really spend much effort to collect information about Zhang Shixin, and this marshal was able to get some words.

"Hopefully, everything will go well." The marshal looked at the port area that was getting clearer and clearer in front of him, but there was a faint uneasiness forming in his heart......

…………………………………………………… Dividing line ..........................................

When the top brass of the alliance received the news that the Osville Empire was attacking the northern regions of the Gultoka Empire, it was already two days later.

By the time the alliance between the two countries was discussing countermeasures, they found that their troops were being dragged in several small principalities, and it was difficult to get out.

And in this war, they had to face more than one-third of the military strength of the Osville Empire.

As a result, the alliance between the two countries was faced with a choice, whether to completely destroy a few small principalities first, or return to the rescue.

But Zhang Shixin sent a telegram at this time:

"Destroy those countries first, so as not to have a hard time juggling the end. On the side of the Oswel Empire, he coped as quickly as he could. ”

Zhang Shixin's telegram shows that he prefers to settle a few small principalities first, and then return to the division to rescue.

Many people don't understand why Zhang Shixin was able to send this telegram at this time, but since this is the case, they also took Zhang Shixin's suggestion.

Fighting on two fronts is also taboo.

As a result, hundreds of thousands of troops were ordered to end the battle as soon as possible, and the offensive of the allied forces of the two countries became more fierce than before......

In addition, there is another circumstance, that is, these people have lost their traces after discovering that Zhang Shixin did not loot some of the larger town political axe vaults.

Although he has always been mentally prepared, William has no good way to reciprocate Zhang Shixin's ransacking method of crossing the border like locusts along the way, except for a wry smile.

On the contrary, he also impeached the officials and aristocrats of Zhang Shixin in the country for these things.

Among them, he said: "If you can also fight like the duke, what he does, I, the emperor, will not be held accountable." ”

Well, even Emperor Yanjing's obvious support for Zhang Shixin's behavior, they don't know each other anymore, it's obvious that they can't get along with the emperor and don't want to get along?

So, these people quieted down one after another, unless Zhang Shixin did something that everyone was angry about, and they made up their minds not to raise the bar with this red and purple guy......

……………………………………………… Dividing Line................................................

As for what Zhang Shixin is doing now?

He looked helplessly at the news fed back by the reconnaissance team, and an armored mechanized unit of about 2,000 vehicles appeared in front of him, which was taking a short break.

Zhang Shixin wanted to retreat, but the enemy army mobilized troops of this size, and it was obvious that there was a large-scale military operation.

He can run, but if he runs, a large area behind him will be lost......

"......" Zhang Shixin was silent for a moment, thinking about whether his current combat strength could win this sudden encounter.

Although all four production lines were fully open, and he had a talent for "Capani's Hungry Wolf" to scavenge the treasury to starve rats to death, he now had a considerable amount of armor in his arsenal.

The number of guns from light tanks to self-propelled guns were:

27 AMX-13 (90mm) light tanks, www.xstxt.orgx-50-100 heavy tanks 18, Su-122-44 tank destroyers 18, Elephant tank destroyers 9, ISU-152 (BL-10) 27 units, Tiger Hunter tank destroyers 18 units, Panther self-propelled guns 27 units, GW Tiger P self-propelled guns 18 units, Tiger P self-propelled rocket launchers 27 units, S-51 self-propelled guns 18 units.

The others are multi-purpose armored vehicles, and to a large extent, this situation makes them fight, no different from sending them to death.

As for the rest of the tanks, they are either on the production line or are still in the schedule.

Can he face this situation now?

The endless plain has become the most tangled place for Zhang Shixin now.

Because whether it is an attack or a defense on the spot, I am afraid that you will have to pay heavy casualties. And the area is too wide, which is also not conducive to defense.

If he stays here, all he can count on is that his tank force can play to its strengths.

In the end, Zhang Shixin decided to fight for it......

"Summon!"

Bursts of intense white light shone one one after another, and the steel bodies of tanks and chariots appeared, as well as summoners of various colors.

Under the banner of an elven dragon army, these summoners quickly entered their combat positions after saluting Zhang Shixin.

The battle was about to break out, and Zhang Shixin entered a Tiger Hunter tank destroyer, waiting for the moment when the battle began.
