After the decisive battle of the Spanish Empire, Ramses II had a long conversation with Arthur.

An agreement was reached between them, in which the Egyptian Empire would help its agent, the British Empire, gain access to Morocco and Yemen, both as an outlet from the Mediterranean Sea to North America and as an important entry point from the Arabian Sea to the Red Sea.

If you control these two, you will almost control the Mediterranean, and control the economic lifeblood of Europe.

And they control the Suez Canal, which leads to Europe in the middle.

And this war of unification was fought when Beichen collapsed.

So at that time, the Great Egyptian Empire almost took out most of the world's major powers, and this made it possible to unify the Arab world.

And Britain, through the colony of Yemen, also succeeded in controlling India.

Arthur was not interested in the territory of other countries, which was requested by Ramses II, who knew that if these two places were not released, the Great Egyptian Empire would face constant foreign wars.

And the reason why Arthur chose to help this is mainly because he was brought by Char.

It was precisely because of the self-emasculating courage of the Great Egyptian Empire that it also weakened its threat to the European powers, which led to their ability to maintain a certain neutrality in these four war areas.

The conflict between Britain and Germany was due to their interests in North Africa, West Asia, and India, and if they did not have these, the war would have been between Germany and Egypt.

Of course, part of the reason is that the main source of oil exports of the Great Egyptian Empire is located in the Arabian Peninsula, where the export takes place in the Strait of Hormuz.

However, the Great Egyptian Empire apparently did not want its country to be blocked from both sides, and after Arthur's death, Ramses II's agreement with Arthur came to an end, so it was only a matter of time before they chose to retake these lands.

The intensity of this world war is obviously greater than that of the previous world war, and more than 100 years have passed, and the weapons of war have also undergone qualitative changes.

Cavalry raids like the beginning, sabre slashing and slashing, although still exist in this era, are no longer the mainstream.

Huge war mechs can kill hundreds of enemies, and bombers and airships flying in the sky can take tens of thousands of lives!

The words of those chauvinists are indeed true.

War is the most depleting means of the population

Tens of millions of people will die in this war.

Because of the ambition of these imperialist countries to dominate the world.

"Boom!!"

In the darkness of the night, flares were raised.

The flaming phosphorescent projectiles emitted a cold blue light that illuminated the darkness.

In the darkness, there is a shallow stream, and through this cold light, you can see the pebbles under the waterway.

However, in this stream, more than a dozen mechs are preparing to wade across the river.

It was the mecha that Char saw when Archduke Ferdinand was parading through the streets.

Char also learned the name of this mech recently, the Seklop Storm Mech, which is the smallest two-legged mech equipped by the Austro-Hungarian Army.

Armed with light weapons and traveling at speeds of up to 60 kilometers per hour, this mech is often used for patrols and surprise attacks, but is rarely used in frontal confrontations, as it can easily be overturned.

The cabin of such a mech is small and uncomfortable, making it unsuitable for long-term missions.

To be precise, the mech was developed by German and Austro-Hungarian scientists, and is divided into two levels of cabins, the upper chamber can accommodate a commander, a pilot, and a machine gunner. The commander would often climb out of the top hatch and direct the mech by tapping his legs on the pilot's shoulders.

The bottom gun bay can accommodate a Heavy and a Loader, who is also responsible for the pilot's work.

The main cannon of the mech is a 57 mm cannon that fires more than three kilograms of shells, and the crew members first pass through the belly hatch located in the belly of this chamber when boarding the mech.

In addition to this, the sides of the cockpit were armed with two MG08 machine guns.

Obviously, these dozen mecha were preparing to touch the mountains and forests in the night.

The top hatch of the mecha was opened, and the commander in military uniform poked out, staring at the forest not far away, the sound of the engine mixed in with the sound of the water, and the front was sparkling.

He motioned for his pilot to move forward, and the Storm Mech scurried in small steps, nocturnal birds chirping, metal feet splashing in layers, streams murmuring, and nothing else.

Something flashed in the darkness ahead, the pilot remained motionless, the mech was fixed on one foot in the air, and the commander stared at the darkness ahead.

"Do you want to turn off the engine?" The driver asked in a low voice.

"Don't!" "If they've spotted us, then we're in need of motivation," the commander said. ”

Suddenly, he jumped into the engine room, "Cavalry! A hundred meters ahead. ”

The pilot held the lever and cursed in a low voice, and the mech stood motionless, like a rabbit waiting for the cavalry to hunt.

They didn't know if the cavalry had spotted them.

The stream glowed white in the moonlight—one of the horsemen was running across the valley with a shout, and one of the horsemen raised his rifle in his hand.

"Found us!"

As soon as the pilot finished speaking, he heard a loud bang, and the bullet hit the metal fuselage of the mecha somewhere.

"Prepare for battle!!" The commander shouted over the walkie-talkie.

The rifle at the top roared, countless artillery fire poured down into the forest ahead, the trees were easily blown to pieces, and the driver could clearly see several cavalrymen lying to the ground through the observation window, torn apart by the fire.

The machine guns that can be loaded with mechs are all large-caliber ones.

They were clearly preparing a counterattack as well, and several stray bullets were fired into the cabin, but he didn't choose to close the observation window, because visibility was more important in the dark than safety.

The moon lit up the trees, the water in front of them glowed white, and the pilot pushed the joystick forward, and the Storm Mech lifted its big feet and made a large splash.

The cavalry scattered through the forest, adjusted to face the revitalization of the mechs.

Soon, another cannonball shot out of the distant forest, but instead of the expected clanging sound, there was a very noisy buzzing sound, as if something was burning rapidly.

Some sparks splattered through the cracks in the hatch canopy, burning a hole in the pilot's clothes.

Soon, though, one of the mechs on one side chose to open fire—a cloud of smoke and blown dirt rising up behind the cavalry. The shock wave spread out through the forest, like a pond thrown into a pebble. The two horses were knocked to the side, and the rider on his back fell.

A few seconds later, the shockwave swept dirt and splinters of wood into the open observation window.

"Something isn't right!" The commander jumped out.

Fresh air blew across his face, the unmuffled roar of the engine poured into his ears, and he leaned on the hatch and looked around.

There was nothing but woods and bushes, neither those cavalrymen nor scouts were gone.

At this moment the commander spotted a cavalryman in the distance, and he was fleeing as fast as he could.

"How"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he noticed a red light flashing in the rear exhaust pipe, and he crawled out a little more to see better.

A cloud of phosphorescent bombs that were still burning stuck to the engine shell, and a large amount of smoke came out, and red smoke drifted all the way up the bright sky.

The commander's face changed in an instant, and he went directly back to the cabin and shouted over the walkie-talkie to the mechs around him.

"Spread out, spread out for me!"

"Boom !!"

There was a loud bang not far away, and the chest of a mecha was directly smashed to pieces.

At this point, the pilot had already twisted the lever and made the mech make a sharp turn. The mech ran over a sapling.

A shockwave pierced through the storm mecha, and the bones of the people inside the mecha were numb, and the whole world seemed to suddenly tilt to the side.

Even though the controller's hand never left the console, the mech suddenly fell back and forth. The controller quickly manipulated the mech to make a sharp turn, almost crashing into the beech tree behind him. Thick branches swept across the fuselage, and large foliage was scraped in through the half-open observation window.

Soon, by the light of the moon, they saw a pile of scraps of flesh hanging from the metal inside the stormed mecha that had been pierced by artillery fire, and the flesh was covered with mud all over the seat.

Before they could recover from the shock, the earth trembled faintly.

The commander opened the upper hatch, and on the distant hill, a behemoth approached them.

Everyone's pupils were trembling slightly, and there was a slight distraction in their eyes

It was a land frigate, originally proposed by the Beichen people, to use mecha technology to carry the fleet onto land, providing powerful firepower and suppression.

It wasn't the largest marine ship they'd ever seen, with eight long legs on the lower body and a spider-like fuselage — it looked like it was very agile, and the row of exhaust pipes on the fuselage indicated that it had a powerful set of engines.

The dark fuselage looked like a magnified beast in the moonlight.

Among all the mechs of all countries, Serbia with Tesla is the country with the best bionic technology.

The name of the warship is Hercules, more than a thousand tons, which is considered small among frigates.

However, according to the latest intelligence of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

This is a brand new test model. Small enough to accelerate quickly, but big enough to crush their Storm Mechs.

The phosphorescent bomb just now apparently provided the coordinates for this frigate.

"Run, go to the forest !!"

This was the flank of the battlefield, and Austria-Hungary was clearly intending to send a squadron of storm mechs from the flank to the enemy's rear to take it by surprise.

However, it is clear that their plan has long been anticipated by the enemy

It's just a flank battlefield.

The battle on the frontal battlefield is more intense.

。。。。。。

On the battlefield of the Drina River.

The four-legged horse-shaped reconnaissance mechs that Char had seen on the streets of Sarajevo were using their mortars behind them to shoot one tracer after another into the sky, dragging the tail flames and illuminating the sky incomparably brighter.

Dozens of storm mechs swooped down on their positions from both flanks, using their mobility.

And one after another, the boxy, short-legged ox-like heavy mechs pushed forward, its armor was so thick that even ordinary anti-mecha cannons could not break through, and could only leave a mark.

The infantry followed behind these heavy mechs, and the infantry coordinated with each other.

On the hillside of the Serbian side, a group of scorpion-shaped mechs stood on the hillside, swooping down the hill, they were much larger than the agricultural mecha that Tesla had shown at the previous exhibition, apparently this was a military version of that.

With six legs and two pincers at the tip, the mech's long tail hung high in the air, and a twenty-millimeter Grimm machine gun hung from the tip of the tail that radiated a searchlight.

Its advantages, in addition to multi-terrain, are mainly that the launcher at the tail end can fire from multiple angles, especially for air defense.

Of course, the long tail is also sometimes easy to target by the enemy, so it can be placed on the back for shooting.

The mechs had a more soulful body than the heavy mechs, and they ran into the crowd at terrifying speeds, their six-barreled Grimm machine guns pouring down.

Twenty millimeter bullets easily tore apart the enemy's body, countless limbs flew wildly, bones mixed with musculature and melted into the earth.

A scorpion-shaped mecha directly raised the pincers in its hand and grabbed one of the soldiers, and the powerful mechanical force easily split his body in two.

Some of the scorpions caught the leg of the cow-shaped mecha, the pincers were hydraulic pliers, and dozens of tons of force exerted on the weak links made a tooth-aching metal twisting sound, and soon, the mecha directly lost the ability to move forward.

However, this scorpion-type mecha also has some disadvantages, that is, the armor is relatively thin, and some mechs were hit by anti-mecha rifles, shooting the pilot inside, and directly paralyzed in place.

At the same time, the Heracrosss frigate, which was behind the bunkers on the Serbian side, fired a salvo at the distant positions with the corrected coordinates of the observers.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! ”

Countless shells streaked through the air in graceful arcs, forming a very gorgeous barrage and bombarding the battlefield not far away.

Countless earth and rocks were splattered everywhere, and even those mechs with heavy armor were blasted out of a large hole, revealing many soldiers inside the mecha, obviously, this mecha was used as a troop carrier mecha,

Some of them were blown into a pulp and were shot and wounded by the soldiers who were lying around, while others were cut by pieces of iron and broke their legs, wailing in pain.

With this round of volleys, huge pits were left on the ground, and some of the people who were affected were directly blasted into pulp, and the unlucky ones were missing arms, their abdomen was blown open, and their intestines fell to the ground and their legs but they did not die immediately, wailing and screaming under the intense pain.

The Austro-Hungarian army was at a stalemate in attacking this position.

But then, all felt a faint tremor of the earth.

The soldiers on the reconnaissance tower on the Heracros were looking with binoculars and looking into the distance through the moonlight.

On the plain, a behemoth was slowly approaching, looking like a warship, but with four legs underneath.

Compared to their frigate, the four legs were slightly stiff, like four pipes, and the speed of progress was average, but the weapons on its body exuded a cold glow in the moonlight, which made people feel cold in the bottom of their hearts.

On the deck in front of it, three gyroplanes were catapulted into the air, a single-piloted vehicle with a pair of propellers on either side, which could take off and land on a battleship, not staying in the air for too long, carrying too many loads, and usually not equipped with weapons, but at most carrying some light ammunition, mainly for patrolling and orienting the guns on the ship.

The observer yelled at the man behind him.

"Cruiser !!" (End of chapter)
