City of War.

This is a place known as the most important city in the northwest.

Countless wars have been fought here, especially the last war of the rebels, and the influence of the whole people is still there, so the people here are fierce, and it really gave the empire a headache after the war.

Fortunately, after a long period of precipitation, the place fell silent again.

There are now about 70,000 defenders stationed in the city, in addition to an aviation legion, and the only regret is that the Crystal Hub is no longer repairable, making the city much less secure.

The general of the defenders was a young brigadier general named Neville Dahlberg.

He was the son of Kraft Dahlberg and a captain who had been defeated at the hands of Vega in the Central Military Academy War.

Perhaps it was precisely because the father and son were defeated in the hands of Vega that the former gentleman grew up, and finally relied on his excellent strength and background, and it coincided with the period when the imperial high-ranking generals were extremely vacant, and he was promoted.

A few months ago.

Neville is still gloating.

Because the Jialan Empire is about to fall, the little ghost called Vega is finally going to fall, and from then on, the big stone that weighs on his heart will be removed, and the glorious period that belongs to him will come.

At that time.

He even wanted to thank Vega for waking him up, otherwise how would he be in his position today?

But it didn't make him happy for long.

Half a month ago, the Jialan Empire invaded the empire on a large scale, and in less than fifteen days, it took the entire northern and eastern parts of the empire, which made him restless in the northwest for several days.

No!

Even now, Neville is still in trepidation.

Although Vega probably didn't have any impression of him, he still remembered Vega vividly, and the scene of the fiasco still appeared in his dreams often, becoming a nightmare that he could never erase.

As a result, he was now terrified that Vega would attack the City of War.

Although this is impossible from any point of view, because the place where he is located is the city of war!

If you want to fight thousands of miles to the City of War, you must first take the city of Lacazia, or the entire central part of the empire.

That said, it's absolutely safe here.

But Neville Dahlberg remains uneasy.

He didn't know where the uneasiness came from, but it lingered anyway.

In the end, it turns out that sometimes the early warning of animal crises is more reliable than any logical speculation.

Because just a few seconds ago, an abrupt explosion sounded, and then a war airship slowly fell from the sky.

You can't go wrong!

It was his patrol airship, and it is self-evident what the crash of the patrol airship meant......

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

The city's air defense alarm was sounded, and the war airships of the air port began to rise into the air.

It is also thanks to this uneasiness that Neville has stepped up patrols around the perimeter in the past few days, and even sent reconnaissance airships to check the surrounding situation, so that the aviation units of the war city will not repeat the mistakes of the Kareni cities.

Unfortunately, prudence alone is useless.

Because the Empire's attention was entirely focused on the northern and eastern fronts, the entire northwest was almost in a vacuum, and relying solely on aviation forces was not enough to turn the tide of the war.

Boom Boom Boom –

A fierce air battle broke out.

But it was a one-sided crush, because the air force of Jialan Country had two, while the air force of War City had only one.

After all, it is too reluctant to fight one.

"Why? Why are the Blues here?"

Neville could barely believe his eyes.

Even if the air force with great mobility wants to cross the border directly, it will be blocked by the air force of Lakassia City, and it is impossible to penetrate here.

"Is it ......?"

Neville suddenly thought of a terrible thing, and that was that the city of Lacacia had fallen.

But that doesn't make sense.

Because once Lacazia fell, he would inevitably receive the news, but so far he has not received any news.

It can't be faster than the scouts delivering the letters, right?

Neville couldn't figure out how the Blues had suddenly appeared here.

Leave these distractions behind you for a moment.

Neville shouted loudly: "Scouts, scouts, report the situation at the front at once, has the enemy's army begun to attack the city? inform the front-line troops that the city gates must be guarded no matter what, and the enemy's army must not be allowed to enter the city." ”

"Report to the commander, our army has not been able to detect the enemy's land coordinates. ”

"You're saying the enemy doesn't have an army at all?"

Neville was startled by the soldier's answer, and he suddenly thought of something terrible—

Air Marines!

This was a new tactic in the United Kingdom, using the air force to transport soldiers into or near cities.

But this kind of behavior is too risky to make the slightest mistake, because a war airship needs to transport most of the soldiers of the division, and once one or two ships are destroyed, it may even directly bankrupt the plan.

Unless......

The enemy has the strength to crush the air force.

And from the current situation, it seems that the enemy does have the strength to crush their air force.

Then everything makes sense.

There must be an army attacking the city of Lacazia, dragging or directly taking the city of Lacazia, so the air force of the Jialan country was able to break through to such a deep hinterland, and at the same time, the enemy's army has probably already crossed the border line, and it will soon be here, once the enemy's main force arrives, the city of war will definitely be lost.

Figured out the key.

Neville calmly issued two orders.

The first is to order the army to encircle and suppress the airborne troops with all their might, and even if it costs a great price, it must encircle and suppress the airborne troops in the city within three days, and at the same time ensure the safety of the city gates.

The second order was to ask for help from the imperial capital.

Neville has decided to race against time.

As long as he can annihilate the Airborne Forces in three days, then he will be able to keep the army out after three days.

When the time comes, after another seven days, reinforcements from the middle of the empire will arrive, and then the rapid attack plan of the Jialan Kingdom will be declared bankrupt, and this is indeed a war against time.

At the same time, this is also the best order at this stage.

Even an experienced commander can only achieve this level of remediation.

It's a pity that the City of War completely scrapped the Crystal Hub in the previous wars.

In the absence of air supremacy, it is almost a fool's dream to annihilate more than 30,000 Jialan Airborne Forces in three days, because Jialan's war airships can provide air support at any time.

So the end result is obvious.

Neville still couldn't wait for the Empire's reinforcements, and three days later, the 200,000 Jialan army arrived first.

After a lot of hard fighting, the City of War fell three days later.
