Alice quietly raised her head at the dining table and looked at the strange situation:

Although it was clear that De Perry, as the princess, was undoubtedly sitting in the middle of the table, the bad guy sat opposite De Perry because he could not push the insistence of Huros's current supreme military commander, Colonel Tremy Helles' militia......

Colonel Tremy, on the other hand, sat first on the right-hand side of De Perry's sister......

The next one was Loris, who sat to the right of Colonel Tremy, and Hurley, who looked like a red-haired fox in Alice's eyes, sat across from Loris.

As for herself, she was separated from Loris, and in that seat sat the lord of Huros, Rishi Endos.

The colonel of the militia, who was now the most powerful in Huros City, had no objection to such an arrangement, let alone her role as a follower in the eyes of others.

It's just that she is a little dissatisfied with why the red-haired fox is sitting opposite Loris's sister, so she is very puzzled.

However, this is also a matter of one meal.

Compared to this, according to her opinion of De Paley, if there is a banquet in the palace, His Majesty will sit at opposite ends of the table with her, and the bad guy will sit on her right hand, and that position should undoubtedly be Uncle Drucka's position, but Uncle Drucka will also take the initiative to give way in this situation.

If it was a private banquet, Sister Liya, as the host, would definitely want her to sit side by side with Sister Loris, and there was no doubt that the position of the hostess opposite was the position of the villain.

Although it is a bit unruly, since it is a private banquet for Sister Liya, it is not easy to say anything even to the king's brother.

But now, looking at the three of them, Sister Liya, Sister Loris, and secretly aimed their eyes at the big bad guy from time to time, and then they all discovered each other's intentions, and the ensuing two-on-one eye exchange almost sparked.

The eerie atmosphere on this side of the table, Alice secretly turned her eyes to the wife who was teasing Colonel Tremy, who was holding her in her arms, and their daughter, who was about 5 years old, making each other giggle.

Then she looked at the three women, well, all blushing and bowing their heads, God knows if they saw this scene and thought of something.

Alice shrugged her shoulders slightly, indicating that she was speechless.

……

After lunch, Zhang Shixin was invited into the conference room in the center of town. As for the girls, they were guided to the guest room by Colonel Tremy's wife, a very quiet middle-aged blonde woman.

When he entered the door, he saw that the military and political leaders of Huros, who had just had some exchanges before lunch, were all present, sitting around a round table and discussing something.

When Tremy saw Zhang Shixin coming in, he immediately stood up and guided Zhang Shixin to sit in front of the door, while he sat next to Zhang Shixin and continued the topic just now.

Colonel Guremi pointed to a crumpled message on the table and slapped the table fiercely: "According to the original plan, General Giannis's troops should be able to arrive in the afternoon, but the fuel is consumed too quickly due to the hurry, although there is a supply of energy stones nearby, but I heard that the new armored unit commanded by General Giannis uses improved fuel." This time and again, let's not talk about whether I can feel it at night, even if I watch it tomorrow, it will be enough to choke. ”

"The problem is not only that, I refuse to leave Her Royal Highness the Princess here as a bait, the regular army in the city has been exhausted, and relying on these more than 2,000 militia troops with serious training and weapons cannot guarantee the safety of Her Royal Highness the Princess. Here, I hope that Her Royal Highness the Princess and Mr. Kissing will immediately evacuate Huros, this is our homeland, and we must protect her and do our best. ”

As one of the first townspeople in the kingdom to elect the lord of the city, Rishi Ndos has a deep affection for the city, although he is not a native of Huros, but he has lived here for more than 20 years, and he has an inseparable affection for this city that he is already very familiar with, not to mention the other people here.

Most of them are natives of the city of Huros, and it is very difficult for them to leave their homes like this.

And his suggestion has been recognized by almost everyone, so many people have their eyes on Zhang Shixin.

It's just that they didn't expect Zhang Shixin to be embarrassed to say a sentence: "What are you talking about, I don't really understand." ”

Well, in the eyes of everyone, Zhang Shixin, who is no different from Her Royal Highness the Princess's fiancé, is a person who doesn't know anything.

So after everyone looked at each other, Colonel Trami had to give a complete and brief explanation of the current situation,

After listening to this, Zhang Shixin did not immediately express his opinion, but pondered what he should do:

If I offered to leave with Leah, she wouldn't refuse, but before then, would you let her know about it?

There is no absolute hope for reinforcements today, and if they arrive before noon tomorrow, they should burn incense, which means that the city relies on their own militia of heavy weapons, which is less than one person or two grenades, until the moment the reinforcements arrive.

If Zhang Shixin takes Leah away and goes to fight with the reinforcements, it is estimated that this support army will not come again, and their top priority is to protect Leah and return to Capani City safely.

At this point, all of you here are not stupid, and you all see this truth. But they asked me to do it anyway......

Admirable.

Zhang Shixin stood up, turned around and walked to the back where there was a high-scale flat map of the Kapani Kingdom, and then pointed to a road to the east with his right hand, which eventually led to the control area of the Kingdom's Southeast Army.

And so it was......

Zhang Shixin knew that these people were not only protecting their homeland, but also protecting the last effective supply line on the kingdom's southeast front.

If Huros falls, Army Group Southeast will not be able to withstand more than five days or even less of high-intensity combat, and its war materiel will be depleted.

At that time, being able to transform into a relatively large guerrilla force would already be the best fate for the Southeastern Army.

Zhang Shixin pondered for a while, although he was not very willing to risk this troubled water, but he knew that Liya had the right to decide her own fate, and he didn't want to lose Liya's trust because of this.

Trust? Zhang Shixin laughed at himself.

When did he value the trust placed in him so much? Especially the trust of a young girl in him......

It's been a long time, it's been a long time......

From the incident in his previous life, he shouted at the girl who he felt guilty about, but also resented:

"If you can't trust me, then why should we be together! Maybe we shouldn't know !! ”

After that, he looked at the trust between people very flatly.

It's just now......

Zhang Shixin touched his nose, and finally made a decision, turned around and said, "This matter must be decided by Liya herself, isn't it?" ”

……

"Giggles", knocked on the door of the room where Liya was, Zhang Shixin couldn't help but think of the group, although they agreed to Zhang Shixin's request, but the people, including Guremi, didn't speak.

Well, whoever said who did the truth he understood, he was the most suitable person, and he also understood......

But doesn't TMD make him feel more comfortable?

After a while, the door opened, and it was Alice, who snorted coldly when he saw her, and turned back into the room.

Looking at the open door, Zhang Shixin took a deep breath and walked into the room.

The room was a very simple guest room, with a double bed, but to Zhang Shixin's surprise, the four girls, including Hurley, were playing cards on the bed, and they were having a good time.

And now, the four girls are all looking at him, as if asking, "Is there anything you have come here for?" ”

"When I was eating just now, I obviously felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong...... Forget it, women are incomprehensible creatures. As soon as Zhang Shixin finished thinking about this in his heart, a roar of Sinia came to his mind:

"I'm a woman, too, Sixen, you bastard!"

"Well, I was wrong......"

After pacifying Cinea, Zhang Shixin said to De Perry, "That...... Leah, could you please come to the terrace? There's something I'd like to explain to you. ”

De Perry nodded, put down the playing cards, and then got out of bed and walked to the terrace, looking at Zhang Shixin.

Zhang Shixin took a breath, and then said what he knew and the information.

De Perry looked at the black-haired young man in front of her like this, and the more mature and resolute face attracted her more and more in her eyes.

But she also listened carefully to Zhang Shixin's words, especially Zhang Shixin's last sentence: "I respect your decision." Leah. It made her heartbeat involuntarily accelerate.

"I want to stay...... Because I also want to support my fellow citizens. De Perry spoke her mind.

Looking at the closed door, De Perry gently put her hand on her chest and murmured softly: "I believe even more that you can protect me and protect the people you can protect." ”

This sentence, she failed to say in front of Zhang Shixin, not only the girl's reserve, but also the wordless support and firm trust of the young man she really fell in love with.

The other three girls looked at this scene and reacted differently:

Alice shook her head and shrugged her shoulders as usual, indicating that she was speechless......

Loris's expression of loss was faintly ......

As for Hurley, she found out that the big bad guy was able to win the favor of two beautiful girls, and it wasn't a matter of luck......

Although, she already knew that morning, Zhang Shixin was actually a very gentle person.

……

"......" Zhang Shixin looked at the group of military and political leaders of Huros who were in the corridor, and gently closed the door while being speechless.

The group of people was also stunned by Zhang Shixin's sudden exit from the room after Zhang Shixin had not moved for a long time......

After less than a moment, Teremi had no choice but to walk up and say, "What is Her Royal Highness's plan?" ”

"She wants to stay here. Again, I have to stay here. Of course, you all know who I am. As a mercenary leader, I hope you will give me a suitable employment fee. Of course, my subordinates are the best of the best and are definitely worth the money. ”

Zhang Shixin said the words of a group of people in the latter paragraph, and after a group of people looked at each other, they finally had to grit their teeth and agree with Zhang Shixin's words.

Ten minutes later, looking at the piles of more than 300 kilograms of gold and silver coins and silver bars worth 250,000 pieces were looted, as for the stacks of banknotes but the underground vault of the Huros political axe, Rishi Endos cried and said with a wry smile: "How much does this lover of the princess like hard currency?" ”

"Rishi, just accept your fate, I think you also know the name of 'Capani's hungry wolf', right?" Colonel Tremi also smiled helplessly and enlightened his friend.

"Of course I've heard of it, and it is said that I don't even let go of the basin and the toothbrush...... Uh, isn't that the one you're talking about......" Rishi thought of a terrible connection, and couldn't help but turn to look at Trami, trying to prove his thoughts.

"Well, you guessed it, it's good that the other party still took care of our face, otherwise, your vault would definitely starve the rats to death." Graimy patted Rishi on the shoulder, showing his sympathy.

Of course, the two who continued to look at the empty position of the vault with wonderful expressions did not know the fact that it was ......

Sitting in the four large military trucks, Zhang Shixin, who was in the passenger seat of the front one, was still confirming one thing: "Sinia, you really don't accept banknotes?" ”

"How many times have we said that we don't accept paper money." Sinia said angrily.

"That's a shame, those stacks of banknotes look like a lot of money." Zhang Shixin expressed his pity.

Well, if you know that Zhang Shixin doesn't want paper money, but that paper money is useless to him, will the two people who are still looking at the underground vault directly exchange hard currency for money......

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

The distance of a few hundred meters is not too far, in fact, it is only a matter of a few minutes, but it is inevitable that Ni Duan will be revealed, Zhang Shixin still let the truck team take a long detour before returning to the hidden area of his troops.

In fact, Zhang Shixin has long had an accurate combat idea for the next battle, that is, he will use the remaining experience of developing the No. 4H model to develop a new self-propelled gun-No. 4 self-propelled gun, and this No. 4 self-propelled gun is not the chassis of the No. 4A type, but from the chassis of the No. 4H type.

Unlike in the game, the No. 4 self-propelled gun here is not equipped with a 105mm howitzer, nor is it a howitzer of the 150mm series, but a 128mm-lefh(n)40-l50 long-barreled howitzer that has not appeared. (The "Fat Marx" No. 4A self-propelled gun can't carry a long-barreled 128mm gun, and the chassis is a bit light, but Germany actually has such a plan, and I directly used the chassis of the No. 4H to make this thing.) ）

Although there is a certain difference between the power and the 150mm howitzer, when Zhang Shixin confirmed that it was summoned, the 128mm-LEFH(N)40-L50 long-barreled howitzer, which completely belongs to the Zenith Star technology category, looks like it has a barrel of more than five meters, showing its good power.

On top of that, it weighs only 22 times the weight of a cricket's 150mm howitzer.

"Will it roll over?" Zhang Shixin was a little uneasy.

Sinia said angrily: "It's okay, as long as it doesn't fire on the edge of the cliff, it can't overturn." ”

Zhang Shixin was suspicious and arranged the crew of the "Wasp" self-propelled gun on this No. 4 self-propelled gun, and then summoned a new gun crew to supplement the crew of the Wasp self-propelled gun.

After everything was ready, Zhang Shixin asked the No. 3 assault gun and the No. 2 L-type to escort the three self-propelled guns and retreated to a small basin more than 300 meters further north to hide, so as to provide more effective fire support to the city of Huros.

Behind them were all the transport trucks in the team, transporting a large number of artillery shells, mainly high-explosive shells, as well as large-caliber flares that Zhang Shixin bought with gritted teeth.

Although the fire support of the "Cricket" self-propelled guns and the "Wasp" self-propelled guns may not cover the entire Huros, he mainly hopes to provide enough fire support to the town building.

This No. 4 self-propelled gun cost all the remaining family property of Zhang Shixin last time, but fortunately, Zhang Shixin had just looted the hard currency of a big city, and he still had a lot of confidence.

Moreover, the exchange ratio of real silver coins to system silver coins is 1 to 4, because in reality, one gold coin can be exchanged for 100 silver coins.

Immediately followed by Zhang Shixin, who quickly summoned an elite soldier with 5,000 silver coins, a total of 500 people, and then followed by a large number of individual combat weapons:

150 MG-34s, each equipped with 20 chain boxes and two reserve barrels. (Although he prefers the MG-42, it needs to be unlocked at the school rank.) The American M2HB heavy machine gun is also in this category, and now it can be summoned with the Browning M1919 heavy machine gun. ）

300 K98K pull-bolt sniper rifles equipped with high-powered scopes, 100 rounds each.

500 MP-38 submachine guns, 6 magazines for ammunition, 3 of which were placed in ammunition boxes.

500 M1911 Browning automatic pistols with ammunition 3 magazines.

1 type 1 anti-tank grenades, 2000 M39 grenades.

3000 cans of various cans.

Anything else, the system comes with it.

Zhang Shixin also wanted to buy M35 disc anti-tank mines, but, thinking of the actual situation of Huros, he had no choice but to give up.

Moreover, Zhang Shixin has now become a poor bastard again...... 109 silver coins......

Then he divided the personnel into groups of ten, for a total of fifty groups. Everything was divided equally among each group, and there were three machine guns in each group, and the bullets and supplies that could not be carried on them wanted to be put in the box, and they carried them into Huros to make arrangements.

When he got out of the car and ran to his new car, a No. 4H model equipped with a 75mm-KWK41-L58 (SB), commonly known as a conical gun, and was about to get into the car, inadvertently, Zhang Shixin found that these 500 people who were busy with the team emblem embroidered on their shoulders, and couldn't help but be embarrassed, and then said incredulously: "Xinia, this team emblem is unreliable, this is not scientific!! ”

"What's unscientific? A 500 silver recruit is definitely not worth it, and a 1000 silver training soldier is also not worth it. A 2000 silver veteran, you still don't look down on it. An elite soldier with 3000 silver coins, you still can't look down on it, only this one, you buy 500 at a time, because they are all elites. Sinia explained, but she wouldn't say it was a prank of theirs in some way.

However, these people have combat effectiveness comparable to that of the reference force at its peak.

What exactly are these people's brochures embroidered on?

A red falcon with outstretched wings has the number "800" written flat under its talons.

Well, Zhang Shixin was really shocked, every penny was worth the goods, and the highest-level infantry with 5,000 silver coins came out of this unit with him. Well, Zhang Shixin can't force it.

"Can these people drive tanks and armored vehicles?" Zhang Shixin suddenly remembered this question.

Sinia said helplessly: "Yes, but it is equal to 75% efficiency of the military cadet." The price of a 75% efficiency Cadet is 2000 credits. Elite Armoured (Non-Commissioned Soldier) is 5,000 credits, and Elite Armoured (with rank) is 10,000 credits. ”

"Uh...... According to this calculation, these elite troops were killed in tanks, and I lost 3,000 silver coins, which outweighed the loss??? Zhang Shixin finally gave up this plan.

Then he was relieved, after all, although this number represents a legend, it is still reluctant to expect him to specialize in driving tanks to fight.

While all the personnel were still being prepared, Zhang Shixin ordered several armored troop carriers with a few K98K sniper rifles to go to the positions he had laid out on the tactical map.

A few minutes later, five hundred infantrymen with their own weapons, either machine guns or long wooden crates, followed several tanks and quickly ran towards Huros.

It's just that Zhang Shixin doesn't understand why the shells of such a cone gun are so expensive.

Sinia rolled her eyes, and just threw down a sentence: "The price of this cannonball is definitely worth the price, you know it well." (Note 1)

He knew that what Sinia said was the truth, and he had to mumble complainingly: "An AP costs 200 silver coins, and an APCR costs 2000 silver coins......"

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

As the evacuation of civilians in the city became more and more smooth, Zhang Shixin leaned out of the top of the No. 4H-shaped turret, and continued to command the 50 teams outside the town building to occupy nearby houses and arrange defensive positions.

Ten of them were transferred to the town building.

It's just that some people who refuse to leave are constantly surrounding Rishi, the unlucky city lord, hoping that the other party can give him an explanation.

Because they don't believe that their homes will be invaded and they are caught in the flames of war.

Zhang Shixin glanced at the people who were the most violent, and found the sign with a red dot on the tactical map, Zhang Shixin did not hesitate, and quickly instructed a few soldiers who were entering the town building to shoot at them.

"Pong", "Pong", "Pong", "Pong"

The soldiers who quickly drew their pistols and fired at the target, regardless of the people who were stopped at the scene, continued to carry their weapons or long wooden boxes into the town building.

"If you don't want to die, leave immediately! I don't have time with you mushrooms! As soon as Zhang Shixin's voice fell, the pursuers, No. 3 H-type, No. 4 F2 type, under the command of their commander, aimed their hideous muzzles at the crowd......

The crowd dispersed quickly, and as for whether to return to his home to kill himself or obediently go out of the city for a while, Zhang Shixin couldn't care about it.

It's just that if there are people who dare to go to the south alone, Zhang Shixin believes that a few snipers will not be polite.

Murderous intent flashed in Zhang Shixin's eyes.

However, after Rishi came back to his senses, he complained to Zhang Shixin: "Mr. Si Xin, are you doing this too much?" ”

"You can have people search those bodies." Zhang Shixin didn't talk nonsense, but continued to command the infantry to arrange the defensive line.

"......" looked at the several guided pistols that were searched, and Rishi knew that it was Zhang Shixin who saved him. Although the means are a little too radical, but in this period, Zhang Shixin's approach is beyond reproach.

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

Time passed quickly, but the troops in the city of Huros had already built their own defensive fronts.

The town building located in the most important area not only has the elite guards arranged by Ode-El for De Perry, but Zhang Shixin has also sent ten teams into it to protect the personnel hiding in the basement. Two of the teams even set their defensive positions in basements. It's just that there are no snipers.

Outside, De Perry's escort and Zhang Shixin's four chariots formed a defensive line behind a large number of sandbags. Moreover, several small-caliber energy-guided anti-tank guns were distributed behind the line of infantry defense, facing several wide roads.

This was followed by a defensive area formed by the local militia and Zhang Shixin's infantry units occupying civilian houses.

It's just that, unlike Zhang Shixin's layout in an area outside the town building, the militia ranks are more arranged at various points in the city.

Silently looking at the situation on the street through the periscope, Zhang Shixin picked up his military kettle and poured a mouthful of water fiercely.

Although there is a huge disparity in strength, such a layout should still be able to support the arrival of reinforcements.

After all, Zhang Shixin still has his own "trump card" - it has been confirmed that it can directly cover this area with fire support and a 128mm howitzer with a range of 5 km.

As for the possibility that the other party may also have long-range artillery, Zhang Shixin has already made his own arrangements......

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

At the same time, on the road south of Huros, a militiaman on a fast horse appeared galloping south.

It was only after the communicator in an armored vehicle in the bushes covered with branches and hidden more than 100 meters on the left side of the main road received a reply from random shooting, and after a while, after a "pong" gunshot, a bloody flower appeared on the forehead of the militiaman, and after a long time after following the momentum of the galloping horse, he tilted to the side and fell to the side of the road.

In the machine gun shooter's position on the roof of this armored car, a soldier was holding a K98K rifle with a high-powered scope, and he was spinning the bolt of the rifle, and the cartridge case was fading.

After a while, the sniper saw that it was already dark, patted the front roof cover, and quickly slid back into the rear compartment.

The armored vehicle quickly made its way to a nearby higher hilly area, and on top of this armored vehicle, a radio adapter was mounted. Able to relay friendly telegrams from a certain range of nearby allies directly to allies in the rear without having to relay them.

……

Time passed quickly, and when the moon rose in the sky, it was placed at the forefront, more than 20 kilometers north of Carretton and 3.4 kilometers south of Huros, an armored vehicle loaded with a Fug-7 radio station, hidden on a mountain path near the main road of the two places.

The machine-gun shooter of the armored car watched the situation on the road with a telescope.

Suddenly, the machine gunner saw a little light on the south side of the road, and the number of them became more and more as time passed, and he subconsciously stepped on the steel floor with his foot.

Immediately, the communicator quickly sent out the information that the enemy had appeared by radio......

When Zhang Shixin received the messenger's relay, the A-level task of guarding Huros also came to mind.

After a little glance at the task reward, Zhang Shixin opened the top cover and looked at the moon in the sky, thinking in his heart: "In order to live up to her ...... to me of trust! ”

Note 1: The reason why the damage of the Cannon in the game is higher than that of the regular 75mm Cannon is mainly due to the fact that the shells of the Cannon are actually difficult to count as piercing explosion damage, although it is also equipped with AP shells, but more hollow jet damage similar to Heat.

Hollow Jet damage is much more effective against tanks.

For example, if a tank killer penetrates the turret or the side armor in the middle of the hull, the damage to the internal parts of the tank hull and crew members is very great.

This is explained in detail in the eighth episode of the Great Patriotic War.

So in the game, the cone gun should actually add an extra heat gun type.

ps: Give more comments and recommendations, thank you.
