Chapter 1041: Edward in a Hurry
After two battles at Fort Rock and Fort Iron, America's headquarters has withdrawn from California and moved to the borders of adjacent Arizona.
However, the retreat of the headquarters to a safer rear did eliminate the possibility of a surprise attack on the headquarters by the Zhu Ya Army, but it still did not make Edward's mood better, but made him more headache.
The Iron Wall Fortress was lost, and a fatal breach appeared in the defensive line he had painstakingly built. The information sent during this period was all kinds of urgent calls for help.
Countless enemies were spreading through the fortress like a plague, and a large number of cities and towns that did not accept his advice to immediately carry out the fortified wall clearance were looted, and all the people and various supplies were packed up and taken to the west coast without exception.
And what made him nervous the most was that a lot of intelligence confirmed a fatal fact, the invaders were replacing the regular troops on a large scale, replacing the mythical class King Solomon's demon soldiers.
It was a fatal result.
In terms of individual strength alone, the demon soldiers are nothing more than that, not as good as the American players, but the NPCs are more obedient than the players after all, pointing to where to fight, which is very conducive to the local formation of a numerical advantage for encirclement and suppression.
"General, they began to march in the direction of the north and south." Colonel Link hurried over with pretty bad news.
"Map."
Edward hurriedly ordered someone to send a map to spread out, and the staff officers of the headquarters had already marked it on the map, showing that the enemy was spreading out to both flanks with the iron fortress as the center, and the strategic intention was quite clear.
Bypass his carefully crafted defenses and launch an all-out general assault from behind.
As the saying goes, disasters don't go alone.
Just as Edward was thinking about how to break the situation, Colonel Hilding, who was in charge of logistics, hurriedly walked over and reluctantly reported: "General, we have received a lot of appeals at present, and many people have applied for compensation for the rental costs of using the system warehouse to transfer materials. ”
"Are they all idiots? I was the one who helped them keep the supplies. Do we have to pay for the rental fee? Edward was furious.
"I think, yes." Colonel Hilding was also aggrieved.
As he knows a certain Chinese saying, things have priorities. America's current focus is on the Bloody Plains, and everything on the main map is funded by the major families. Everyone, including Edward, did not secure a budget.
However, it is not the freelancers who are seeking compensation at the moment, but the family forces.
In the battle of the Iron Wall Fortress, the loss was not heavy, but it was also a big loss. It is not difficult to understand that the family forces gathered in the fortress shifted the losses to Edward in order to stop the loss.
What's more, these families are the foundation of the old elite camp.
The rivalry between the old elite and the upstart continues to this day. The main battle of the camp led by Rockefeller and other big families is also the main force at the forefront of the current America, while the upstart group led by the Triist family insists on peace talks and ends this senseless war by peaceful means.
If Edward didn't make amends, the families who took the opportunity to blackmail would not be able to do anything and would side with the Trist family. Edward couldn't afford this responsibility, and they couldn't afford it.
Thinking of this, Colonel Hilding was depressed.
With invaders in front and Trist in the back, this war is really terrible.
Edward, apparently seeing through the truth, looked tired and changed the subject: "What are those allies of ours doing now?" ”
The strength shown by Zhu Yajun made him clearly realize that the current America was powerless to stop the invasion, and he could only rely on the strength of his allies to form an absolute superiority in numbers to have any hope of victory.
"They...... Current intelligence indicates that they are all delaying on the grounds that they are being assembled. Colonel Link's aggrieved report. Once upon a time, America was so embarrassed that she said things like a fart and no one paid any attention to them.
"What about the Mexican side?" Edward's face turned ugly, and he called him directly.
Mexico borders the United States of America and is as close as crossing the border with California, making it one of Canada's closest allies.
"The Mexican government has lost power, and the drug lords have become the dominant ones. Although they have not severed their alliance with us, they have not indicated that they will send reinforcements immediately. Colonel Link shook his head helplessly.
"What about Canada?" Edward's face turned a little uglier again.
"There's a lot of attack from the north. The Governor-General of the Far East, Ivan, knowing that we had failed again, launched a full-scale offensive. He has now occupied Alaska and invaded Canada. Therefore, there is no way to send people over for reinforcements for the time being. Colonel Link said dejectedly.
Edward was silent.
War has always been in the service of politics. He knows this.
America's successive defeats have left the world silent. America's enemies, such as Ivan, the Governor of the Far East of the Polar Bear, immediately launched an all-out offensive to contain Canada, America's hardcore ally.
America's allies, such as Mexico, have chosen to sit on the sidelines, apparently unwilling to do so, while South America, which is also in the same zone, has plenty of excuses to stall in order to see how the situation develops.
There is no need to even think about it, once America plummets, countries will not be afraid to fall into the ground, change sides and come to America to make a fortune.
At this moment, Edward suddenly realized that his opponent's vision was so long-term, as if he had calculated that America would face such a dilemma.
First, he used the Roman Empire to contain America's allies in the Europa region, then used the polar bear Governor of the Far East Ivan to contain Canada, and finally used the Dongying region and Chinese players as the main force to stir up trouble in America.
What is even more terrifying is that this adversary has a clear and clear intention to firmly confine the war to the American mainland.
This made America's usual excuses gone.
In today's virtual world, it doesn't matter if you are the world's number one power. This is an era of global reshuffle. The world's police have been sitting for a long time, and there are quite a few rivals.
At this time, Colonel Link suddenly exclaimed: "General, the latest information, Zhu Ya has publicly expressed his willingness to disclose the recruitment qualifications of the Mythical Soldier King Solomon's Demon Soldier in a transactional situation. ”
Edward was stunned. This is a fatal blow.
Sure enough, Colonel Link's face became more and more ugly, but he still calmly reported all kinds of information that skyrocketed in an instant.
"The island officially declares an alliance with the Roman Empire and is committed to maintaining stability in the Europa zone."
"France officially announced the conclusion of a vassal treaty with the Roman Empire, and the two sides would work together to eradicate all enemies of the empire."
Edward's face was so gloomy that it almost dripped. It's shameless, these two scoundrels. Lonely overseas, Hidejima has never lacked ambitions to enter the continent of Europa.
But France, one of the five hooligans, would be a vassal to the Roman Empire, and it is not enough to describe it as shameless.
Colonel Link's debriefing continues.
"The Nanyang Alliance has officially announced that it has joined the Zhuya camp, which is ...... to us Declare war. ”
