"Irene are you sure you're telling the truth?"

"Yes, Director, I vouch for the truth of what I said with my professional reputation as a journalist...... Blauder was already dead, having fallen into the river and drowned while escaping, and it was not a man named Carl Gilman who had commanded the battle from beginning to end...... Do you already know it from refugees?!?...... Of course, I guarantee with the professional ethics of a journalist that the news we get this time is absolutely accurate...... Okay, so I'll continue with the interview...... The lines here are now occupied by the military, and I don't know when the next contact will be...... Good luck to us, both of us. ”

With that, Ireni returned the phone to the militia squadron leader who borrowed it

"Thank you for your call, I've said everything I should have said, so now let's continue the topic just now~"

Obviously, Ireni didn't give up on her interview because of what had just happened

"That...... Miss reporter, can you please talk about it another day?~ We are here on the front line, not the rear, what is there to wait until the end of the battle?" The militia captain saw that this reporter refused to give up his interview from beginning to end, and was very helpless, although he wanted to get rid of this reporter, but he never knew what to do, which also shows that this guy is still not competent enough as a soldier, you must know where there is anything to say about the military center and the reporter? If you get rid of it, it will be over, but this guy ......

"Eldest sister, please leave quickly, we don't know when there will be a war here, and if this continues, our captain will have to scold me to death if he comes. ”

Obviously, he is still a long way from the transformation from militia to military.

"Eral, what are you doing?!"

At this time, the person that Squadron Leader Elar feared the most came.

"Captain?!Why are you here?!"

The person who came was none other than Captain Monish, the temporary captain of the 3rd Militia Brigade, a regular army officer temporarily transferred from the Eastern Border Guards' Armored Mobile Brigade.

"Military powerhouse, where are the reporters but come casually? And what's going on with that little girl over there?!"

As he spoke, Monish pointed to the long-haired pink girl who was beside Elar helping to reload the magazine, and stamped her foot angrily.

"How can you look at them as girls under the age of fifteen?!How can you let such a child come to the front?!Is it true that all of us Galia men are dead?!"

Obviously, His Excellency the Captain is still a bit machismo.

"Your Excellency Captain, please forgive me for not accepting your words and deeds, although I am a minor, but it is the responsibility of defending the land against the enemy, even if I am a minor, I should bear the responsibility of encircling the country, the beast of the emperor ** will not care if I am a minor or a man or a woman!"

What was surprising was the pink-haired girl who helped to load the bullets, obviously still very young, and saw such a fierce captain captain who did not flinch, pinched his waist and stood up in protest

"When the enemy strikes into our homeland, there are only patriots who are loyal to the country or cowards and traitors who have escaped, and there is no third kind of people!"

Obviously, the girl who is eloquent has a good eloquence and a personality that does not admit defeat.

Obviously taller than the captain, he seems to be taller than the other party.

'This little girl, there is something interesting. ’

Looking at the little girl's determined and persistent eyes, the captain began to re-evaluate the little girl.

"Little girl, what's your name?"

By this time, His Excellency had put away his contempt.

"Yuliana Aberuhalt is a volunteer who came from Landgulitz in response to the call of her country. ”

The little girl said her name proudly, obviously very proud of it

"You're from the Ebruhart family?!"

Before the captain could finish speaking......

"Whoa—"

The sound of cannonballs streaking through the air came

"Boom!"

A powerful shell landed on the position of the Gallia Army a few blocks away, and several unprepared militiamen were instantly blown to pieces.

"Hide! It's 150 mm!"

As he spoke, the captain grabbed the little girl in front of him who did not react to the situation and ran to a safe place.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

"Boom, boom. ”

Shells rained down on the city, on and inside the line of defense of the Gallia Army, and under the accurate guidance of the Union Army military map, the level of artillery shelling of the 4th Division was far from being comparable to that of the 6th Division, and 88 mm shells, 105 mm howitzer shells and 150 mm heavy grenades were continuously fired into the city by the artillery of the 4th Division, which caught the Gallia defenders by surprise.

They didn't expect that the emperor's own people were just a few streets away from them, how could the other party dare to fire at a large area in the city?

They caught up, and the 4th Division dared.

Thanks to their accurate military maps obtained at great expense from federal channels, and thanks to the superb gunnery of the artillery of the Fourth Division, which was fed with mountains of shells,

Thanks to the Sixth Division, which now doesn't care about anything but victory, no one wants a division,

The Fourth Division was relieved and boldly fired artillery shells produced in its hometown into the city, without worrying about the safety of the people of the Sixth Division.

The main direction of the shelling was in the area controlled by the Galians, and the Emperor's men suffered very little attack, and the soldiers of the Emperor's 6th Division had long been accustomed to receiving months of trench warfare and artillery fire on the federal front where the artillery was ridden, and they had a good endurance for this level of artillery fire.

And the Gallia militia ......

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The shells hit the towering houses, destroying the fragments and entire houses, burying the Galia army who had taken refuge in the streets almost alive

"Oh my God! The emperor is crazy! They're going to blow us up!

"Boom! boom!"

The Galia Army, who were hiding in the bunker, endured the shock wave of the grenade that exploded outside the bunker, and their hearts were about to be shaken out.

"Help! my eardrums!

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The militiamen were frightened by the pressure of countless fragments of houses and stragglers who were scared by shells and stragglers who were scared by shells

"I can't do it! I'm dying! Help!

The recruits were afraid of shells, of such intensive and endless shelling.

Fragments of houses were scattered everywhere in the city, the hands and feet of former comrades-in-arms were blown everywhere, and the towering and sturdy houses could be turned into a pile of rubble by heavy shells at any time, burying the comrades hiding inside.

The dust from the collapse covered the world in front of them like a cover cloth of death, making it difficult for everyone who survived to breathe in the endless dust.

In the eyes of those who have not been subjected to heavy artillery shelling, those are nothing more than military textbooks and films.

In the eyes of veterans who have been in battle, those are relatively easy to deal with, but they once made their memories fresh and even desperate.

And for the militia of Galia, who had not experienced a serious battle, this was a real hell of despair.

..................

"Karl, tell our squadrons at the front to take cover, and wait for the next wave of attacks from the 6th Division, if I guess correctly, their next attack will be at the same time as the artillery fire ends...... Even before it starts!"

In the underground bunker, Lilia suggested to Carl

"Okay, I see, I'll contact the squadrons on the front line and get them ready!"

Karl also felt that the enemy was really desperate to shell this time at the risk of accidentally injuring his own people. But they were well prepared.

Because the Gallia troops fighting on the front line against the Empire were not all the troops in Karl's hands, at best there were only five thousand people in number, as well as two thousand militiamen and nearly a thousand mechanized independent brigades that had gone through several battle formations.

And......

"Karl, the Border Guard Command has sent a telegram saying that the Eighth Regiment of the Border Guards, which has reinforced us, has arrived in Lando Bassa and is waiting for your order on the outskirts of the southern part of the city. They also said that for the sake of victory, the commander had allocated you the only separate armored fighting vehicle brigade, and a total of sixty combat vehicles and sixty armored vehicles had also arrived. ”

Carrasti still duly reported the information he had received to Carl

"It's finally here! Great! So we're happy to follow the plan."

"Boom!--Boom!"

But as the saying goes, there are more unsatisfactory things happening on the battlefield than anywhere else, and although Carl and the others have many plans and plans, they did not expect that there will be a subversive mistake that will bury them alive along with all the counteroffensive plans.

How big is this flaw?

"Dangchang!"

It's about the size of an inferior concrete load-bearing beam in an underground bunker.

A 150mm Imperial time-lapse bombshell landed right on the bunker.

The beams of the bunker ...... Broken.

Carl, Lilia, and Carrasti...... Silence.

The city defense force composed of the rookie militia, which was almost crumbling by the enemy's shelling, fell into a crisis of being leaderless.
