Since the collapse of the Wall of Life in Dawn City, the next few waves of collapse have not caused similar tragic casualties, at least not for the city, as for those survivors at the bottom of the wilderness, their life and death are unknown, and it is not something that the people in the city will care about, whether they die a thousand or ten thousand, it has nothing to do with the city.

In terms of the Northern Expedition, according to the world's estimates, Leng Kite should stop, because the most critical capital has been recaptured, and most of the grain-producing areas have also been captured.

As the saying goes, the country is easy to fight but not easy to defend, and the results of this Northern Expedition are far more than previously estimated.

Originally, according to the estimation of the Supreme Staff of the Republic, it was best to recover the middle basin of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, especially to knock down Henan Province, which is a major grain-producing area, which was completely sufficient!

The larger the land, the more stable troops need to be dispatched, and the higher the military expenditure.

Leng Kite is good, he almost took back all the land with his mighty advance, and pushed the rebels to the vicinity of the traditional border of the old republic.

However, the staff did not complain too much, because this was still under control.

Originally, the Federation was already highly dissatisfied with the Northern Expedition, and there was news that the Asia-Pacific Theater Headquarters was already considering sending troops to intervene, but Leng Kite stopped at this juncture, and the Federation was a little unable to advance or retreat.

According to the "Treaty of Mutual Assistance of the Republican Federation", the two sides are not in a state of war, and if the Federation attacks the Republican Hui's Northern Expeditionary Army now, it is okay to fight, but it will break the contract and be unreasonable, that is, the division will be nameless.

Don't underestimate the impact of "the division is unknown", you can say that the big fist is the last word, but if a war does not have a name, the high-level generals can be cheeky to start a war, how to mobilize the low-level soldiers is a difficult problem, and it is impossible to give the soldiers a reason for heroic sacrifice, which greatly affects the combat efficiency.

And once this kind of precedent is set, it will be extremely harmful to the future, according to the historical perspective, the first person to break the rules of the game often does not end well, so the Federation should not risk this beginning.

Now, the General Staff is thinking more about how to deal with the economic sanctions of the Federation, and the other side is not stupid.

During this period of time, the Federation frantically increased the number of coins, which led to serious inflation, and the urban civilians who were originally in the subsistence line were instantly beaten below the poverty line, which was very dissatisfied with the glory of the Republic, and even more so with the Northern Expeditionary Army.

The general of the Gonghui Staff, the dove general Liu Fusu, was holding a meeting with a group of officials under his command, and couldn't help but sigh: "If there is an opportunity, we must introduce our own currency, otherwise it will be too passive to be controlled by others like now." ”

Previously, in order to restore the world economy, the world's major powers used a currency, the advantage is integration, high control, very suitable for post-disaster reconstruction, the disadvantage is that one is dominant, the strong financial resources of the federation can launch economic sanctions against any force.

To put it mildly, like the current economic situation, it is completely the Federation that has pinched the eggs of the Republic, and if you don't comply, you will pinch you and hurt you to death, you have to dare to mess around, and you can pinch your eggs in minutes.

A lieutenant general smiled bitterly: "Take your time, you can't eat a fat man, now Admiral Leng Kite has recovered so much lost territory, it's enough for us to be busy." ”

Another lieutenant general muttered, "I have a question, according to the battle report, the rebel city does not seem to have a wall of life, how can they hold so many collapses?" ”

"That's what I've always wondered." Ryu Fusu is the leader of the Wall of Life project and the one who made an agreement with the Federation, and he knows better than anyone the importance of the Wall of Life.

Don't say anything like birdcages, cages, loss of freedom, captive livestock, and so on, without the Wall of Life, the population of the Radiance of the Republic would have dropped by at least 80% compared to what it is now, and few people would have survived the Honkai!

So how exactly did the rebels survive without the wall of life?

Liu Fusu did not continue to dream, but put his thoughts on the main issue: "The northern land has been torn apart by war in recent months, and we have drafted proclamations, reduced taxes, appeased people's hearts, and then let the southern city defense construction army quickly settle in to maintain law and order." As for Leng Kite's side, please station the main force near the capital and lay a defensive line in the important town to prevent the counterattack of the northern coalition army, and at the same time eliminate the remaining hostile forces, so that in less than three years, the world will be in the world..."

Before the four words "the world can be prosperous" were finished, there was an urgent knock on the door of the conference room, and after the door was opened, a communications soldier walked in with a pale face and said in a trembling voice: "General, the generalissimo, please come to the No. 1 conference room for a meeting." ”

Liu Fusu was stunned for a moment, feeling a little strange, the No. 1 conference room is a place to discuss major state affairs, and it was opened after Leng Kite recovered the capital of Beijing before, why is it open again now? Puzzled, he asked, "What are you discussing?" ”

"The matter of the Northern Expedition...", the communications soldier said in a trembling voice as if he had seen a ghost, looking like he had lost his soul, "Admiral Leng Kite suddenly sent troops north two hours ago to storm the rebels' temporary outposts, and now the forward troops are almost arriving at the traditional border. ”

Liu Fusu only felt that the surroundings began to be turned upside down, if it weren't for a few lieutenant generals to help him, he almost fainted, this Confucian general was very rare out of control, his eyes were full of bloodshots, he grabbed the remote control indiscriminately, turned on the projector in the conference room, and connected to the main news channel.

At this time, Liu Fusu, like everyone else in the world, focused on this breaking news.

In the picture, Tyrese, the Minister of Defense of the Federal Heavy Industry Corps, is standing upright on the podium, behind him stand several elite Valkyries, including Brigadier General Brunhilde, and in front of them are soldiers armed to the teeth, and from time to time there are hideous giant tanks emitting billowing black smoke, and the air is full of gunsmoke.

In the press gallery, the visiting reporters were already crazy and squeezed forward desperately, photographing the Commonwealth's display of force at this moment, as well as the majestic posture of Defense Secretary Tyrese.

In the next second, the sharp-edged "bald eagle mouthpiece" finally spoke, and the majestic voice almost penetrated the sky through the microphone: "The people of the Federation love peace, but in order to defend peace, they have never been afraid to resist the evil army!" The Northern Expeditionary Red Army, under the instigation and support of Admiral Leng Kite of the Republic, brazenly launched aggression, ignoring several warnings from our side, and at the same time intensified, even resorting to brutal means to persecute, plunder, and kill compatriots in the same lineage! Create a tragic Xuchang massacre! ”

Tyrese clenched his fists, his jealous eyes lit up with a raging fire, and the words of criticism in his mouth were as sharp as a knife and an axe: "We express great indignation at Admiral Leng Kite's crazy butcher behavior, but the other side has repeatedly regarded our restraint and tolerance as weakness and bullying, and continues to penetrate deep into the north and expand the war. All of this proves that Leng Kite has made every inch, ignoring the principle of peace of the republic, and vainly trying to launch a military expansion. ”

Tyrese raised his fist and pointed to the sky, like a warrior who reigned over the world, and the voice in his mouth was also majestic to the extreme: "Now, on behalf of Mr. Agronso, the commander-in-chief of the Asia-Pacific Theater of the Federal Heavy Industry Corps, I issue an ultimatum to the Radiance of the Republic, asking Admiral Leng Kite to immediately lead the army out of contact with the northern forces!" If we continue to insist on going our own way, the patience of the federal government, the people of the Federation, and the federal forces is not unlimited, and once the situation deteriorates, the Republic of the Glory itself must bear full responsibility! ”

The fire of fanaticism burned in Tyrese's eyes, and his mouth burst out with a majestic voice: "For the Federation!" ”

When Tyrese's speech was settled, a deafening roar rang out from the sky, and nearly a hundred Valkyries pierced the sky, bursting into scorching flames under the friction with the atmosphere, hitting the other side of the horizon like falling meteors, leaving a conspicuous white wave in the air, announcing impending death.
