"Honestly, you've done a great job," Gastens said of Gary Gibson, "but the general trend is that Anken Rein's system dictates that it is the best soil for communism." You've done your best, don't be too sad. ”

"Teacher," Gary Gibson said, "my father is dead, my country is torn apart, and I could have been the emperor of one of the six great powers in this world, but now I am the last monarch of a country that is about to be destroyed. If you think that's good and you can 'don't be too sad,' then I don't have anything to say. ”

Gastens looked at Gary Gibson, who was sitting in front of him, and remembered the first time he saw him. At that time he was small, short, looking at people with a hint of vigilance and deliberately feigned innocence. Who would have thought that such a teenager would become such a monarch after three years.

"At least you are still alive", Gastens did not deliberately comfort the emperor opposite, he knew that even the emperor who had lost power, even the emperor of a constitutional monarchy, did not need the comfort of his enemy, "There are infinite possibilities to live." If you agree to peaceful reunification, I can give you peace for the Gibson family. ”

"I promise, but those people won't," Gary Gibson knew well about the chips in his hands before he came, "I'm just a hypocrite now, and you told me about the constitutional monarchy, and you know that I'm a walking and talking vase at best." If you want to keep me safe for the rest of my life, you might as well discuss with those grand dukes and see if you can find a better way. ”

"They're not you, and you're not them," Gastens waved casually, "We're going to unify Ankenrein, and you're going to fail." Therefore, talking to you or talking to those old nobles does not affect the overall situation. On the contrary, your current position and identity are the most suitable person. ”

"Someone to surrender?" , Gary Gibson smiled wryly, "Teacher, you really taught a good student, and you specially used it to carry the pot." ”

"If your purpose is the same as the original, and you still want the continuation of the Gibson family, then you are the one to be."

Gastens picked up the teapot next to him and made himself and the emperor opposite him a cup of black leaf tea, "Taste it, you only drank it once when you were in Elena, and you never drank it again." In fact, this is the taste of life. ”

Gary Gibson picked up the cup of tea and drank it down.

"Teacher, we will still resist, we will do everything possible to resist, and until the last moment, I will not give up hope. This is the truth you gave me. If you have to blame, blame yourself. ”

Xu was washed by the bitterness of the tea, Gary Gibson frowned, and gave the answer word by word. Gastens smiled nonchalantly, "It's okay, that's your character." However, whenever you are willing to surrender before the end of the war, I will keep you Gibson safe for the rest of your life. ”

"Okay, thank you, teacher, I hope that the next time we add noodles, we will all be healthy."

Gary Gibson stood up, saluted, and turned to leave. Gastens looked at the young man's back and smiled slightly.

No matter how much you experience, a teenager is still a teenager after all.

On August 5, 854, the 1st and 3rd Legions of the Elena Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army launched an all-out attack on the Republic of Ankenrein from the north and south, in conjunction with the 1st Behemoth Regiment and the 2nd Behemoth Regiment. Ankenrey, who was in charge of guarding Roseville, was retreated without a fight by the security forces, and Roseville changed hands within a day of the start of the battle. After that, Elena's forces marched straight into the province of Milumia and the central part of the province of Chang to meet the first line of defense of the Republic of Ankenrein. Troops from Duke Conton of Lingyan and Ranny Dubontyre, Grand Duke of Fort Cliff, dug deep trenches, used anti-tank piles to build defensive lines, and committed more than 200,000 troops. The two sides fought fiercely for two days in the Sanye Plain, and the troops of the two Grand Dukes were defeated and dispersed, and Elena left the Third Army to consolidate the liberated area, and sent the Fourth Army and the First Army to continue the attack.

On September 13, 854, Elena's army regained the province of Milumia and advanced into Roninger. Ankenrey was in a hurry to move the defenders of the Glacier Line westward due to the Council of Nobles of the Republic and Emperor Gary Gibson, and fought Elena's army 120 kilometers west of Roninger. The battle lasted for half a day, the army of the Glacier Line was routed, and a large number of soldiers surrendered.

On September 27, 854, the 1st and 4th Legions of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army of Elena besieged Roninger, and Emperor Gary Gibson surrendered out of the city, announcing the unconditional annexation of the Republic of Ankenrein to the People's Communist Republic of Ankenrein. At this point, the Anken Rein Empire, which had existed for 833 years, came to an end.

On September 28, 854, when Elena's army began to receive the entire territory of Ankenrein, the famous general of the Alonte Empire, Gukohein Foster, led the 77th and 78th armies of the Alonte Empire to invade through the glacial defense line, occupied the province of Amber in the eastern part of the Republic of Ankenrein, and set up troops on the border to resolutely prevent the Arona army from recovering Amborg.

————————————

"This Gukohain Foster has a history of using troops without permission before, this time, is it still his own action?"

Standing at the head of Ronninger, Gastens wore his coat and felt the wind in East Ankenrein. It's much cooler here than Elena, and the wind blows on your face, and it's less hot in late summer and more cold in autumn.

"The actual occupation of two armies does not seem like his own idea," said Sink Warren, standing beside Gastens. He has become accustomed to the style of Gastens who must follow the march of the large army whenever he fights, and has also made himself a member of this mobile leadership core, "Although now the intelligence shows that the preparations for war of the three countries are still going on, and they are not sufficient. However, it cannot be ruled out that the Alonte Empire wants to test our bottom line through this military operation. ”

"What's the bottom line? Want to see if we'll do it? If they didn't know my personality by now, they would really make me underestimate them. ”

Gastens frowned, pondering what the other side meant. He will definitely take the province of Anborg, and only by opening up the eastern border can he fundamentally change the strategic situation of Anken Rein. Therefore, no matter what little ninety-nine the Alonte Empire has, there is only one way for him to deal with it.

Offensive.

"Are the troops ready? Okay, let's start attacking tomorrow. ”

Gastens turned to look at the Communicationsman. Because the forward command was already stationed on the west side of Ambor province, and now he was surrounded by only communications troops from the headquarters.

"Chairman, it's ready, everyone is holding their breath, just like you said, no one can bully us Anken Rein!"

The communications soldier was very young, he looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, and Gastens nodded at him, watched him go, and chuckled softly. Now he is in a good mood, these young people have grown up in Elena's environment, they have gone to school, they have culture, they have technology, they accept scientific ideas, they are the real new generation, and they are also the hope of Elena's future.

"Boss, you say, can we win?"

"Of course, we are Elena, Elena's army, and we have never been afraid of anyone!"

————————————

Although Gastens said it relaxed, the atmosphere on the front line was not as relaxed as his, after all, this was the first time against the army of the world's largest power, the first army responsible for the attack, everyone was a little expectant and nervous.

"Captain Beken, it's all ready, give the order!"

In the headquarters of the former enemy made of thick felt cloth, Brolin Warren, chief of staff and head of the Political Department of the 1st Regiment of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army, stood straight and looked at Beckon Warren.

"Then let's fight! Let's see if the Alonte Empire is worthy of the title of the world's number one power as the legend says! ”

"Good! Pass the order of the commander of the corps, attack! ”

Brolin Warren turned around and gave the order with all his might. In an instant, the horn representing the charge sounded outside the tent. Baken Warren and Brolin Warren walked out of their tents, picked up binoculars, and began to observe the direction of the war.

In Beacon Warren's plan, he still uses Elena's most effective and powerful tactics to date. The armored forces of the First Behemoth Warband advanced forward, followed by the infantry of the First Legion, while protecting the flanks and smashing any obstacles that stood in their way like a spear. This tactic was used all the way to Ronninger in the province of Enspan, and he never suffered defeat. Even if the enemy in the middle used a variety of ways to stop the advance of the armored forces, it only delayed the defeat and could not change the outcome of the war.

In Beckon Warren's field of vision, the massive monster chariot had turned into a thumb-sized black dot, and he could see the infantry moving with the tank, densely pulling long black marks on the battlefield. He could also see the enemy's army, those of the Aronte Empire dressed in gray and white. They hid in bunkers and trenches, occasionally peeking out, but rarely firing a shot.

"No enemy yet."

Chief of Staff Brolin Warren whispered that he, like Bakken Warren, was concerned about the course of the war.

"It's coming."

Beacon Warren didn't reply much, all his attention was on the behemoths. The black, steel shadows followed his gaze before stopping in front of a visible trench. The support vehicles that followed the behemoth began to step forward, filling the trench with the thick logs they carried. At the same time, the steam machine guns on the Behemoth began to suppress fire, ensuring that the enemy would not interfere with their efforts to fill the trenches. Beacon Warren could see the enemy, and they seemed to want to launch a wave of counterattack, but they were quickly overwhelmed by the dense fire from the behemoth. After all, not many people have the courage to fight for long periods of time in the face of an unkillable, virtually invincible enemy.

It took more than half an hour to fill the trench to make a pathway, and during this time, the infantry following the tanks were very cautious and did not rashly expose themselves to the enemy's vitality. And the snipers, who hide in the dark, are still continuing their work. From time to time, Beckon Warren could see small enemy figures falling, and although he couldn't tell whether they had been killed by the monster's steam machine gun or by a sniper, he was more inclined to believe that his own snipers had almost destroyed the enemy's grassroots command system.

After another half an hour or so, the behemoths passed through the four pathways that had been filled at the same time, and formed again behind the trenches, followed by the infantry who followed them step by step, forcing the enemy out of their first line of defense. After that, the behemoths encountered a second different obstacle, a pyramid-shaped anti-tank pile. These heavy cement products are packed in a large area, but there is no pattern. During the previous attack on Roninger, the behemoths had encountered this kind of thing, and there was no good way to deal with these things, and the commanders only found a strategy to deal with it after being delayed twice. The new team of high-powered steam wreckers was dispatched. Equipped with Elena's most powerful automotive steam engine, the Burning Sun One, these large industrial equipment can push these cement piles away with little effort, making a way for the behemoth. It's just that these industrial machines move very slowly, and it takes time to enter the battlefield and get out of it.

"I always feel ......"

Beckon Warren watched his armored forces break through the enemy's various defense lines layer by layer, and he always felt a little unhappy in his heart, "I always feel that the enemy is experimenting with this operation to see what tactics can best deal with the giant beast." So far, I've found more than four different obstacles and trenches. ”

"They are good at this," replied Brolin Warren, holding up his binoculars, "on our land, fighting with our soldiers, testing our tactics." They themselves are hiding behind cover, and they don't have a strong desire to defend. Commander, I think your guess is correct, they are indeed testing their own tactics in this way. ”

"It's not that simple to make us sparring partners," Beacon Warren sneered, "and, I wonder if they should despair or rejoice when they find that nothing can thwart our attack, but only temporarily slow down our attack." ”

"Rejoicing in what?" Brolin didn't follow Beken's train of thought for a while, and asked curiously.

"I'm glad they don't really need to fight us at home."

Beckon Warren watched as the enemy in his field of vision withdrew from a line of defense once again and lowered his binoculars.

"There's nothing to see, they just came here to experiment, there are very few frontal clashes, and they run away with one shot. These slippery heads. ”

"This is the army of the most powerful country in the world", Brolin sighed softly, "Commander, don't you think we are really strong?" ”

"Of course," Beckon Warren picked up the telescope again. Although he found it boring, as a corps commander, he had to always observe the dynamics of the battlefield.

"That's how we love Elena. When the power of the people and the power of science and technology are combined, no one in this world will be able to stop us from planting the red flag on the top of the world! ”
