The Elf's attack started but came to an end. The Tang army was well prepared and did not give its opponent any chance. The Elf 3rd Army on the other side also suffered a defeat in the face of the solid defense.
But despite this, they decided to organize a new round of attack as soon as possible, because the stronger the Tang army became, the more guilty they became.
Before, everyone was still thinking about intrigues and playing so-called games when they got together. Now that the enemy is facing us, no matter how thoughtful we are, we have to hide it and wait until everything is over.
The attack on the second day was obviously more violent. The elves used all their strength and began to attack the Tang army's position - they killed thousands of people that day, but they still failed to break through the Tang army's position.
The three Tang armies were standing in front of the coalition forces like iron plates. No matter how they attacked, they remained motionless, which made several coalition generals extremely depressed.
No matter whether it was Van Kruse or Marquis Ludd, including the dwarf Truman, and Xie Ke... none of them could make the Tang army retreat even half a step.
What made them even more depressed was that the Tang Army's planes seemed to be becoming more and more active: these damn things that often hovered on the battlefield would always destroy their attack plans.
Often with only two or four aircraft, the Tang Army could bring a well-prepared attack by the coalition to naught. Then the Tang Army's helicopters would launch a counterattack, pouring countless rockets onto the coalition's positions.
One such attack would cost three to five hundred men, and no one could bear such a large loss. Therefore, after several attacks, no one had much interest in continuing to attack fiercely.
When attacking, they often pretend, and then spend the rest of the time desperately building their own defenses and digging their own trenches, trying to comfort themselves in this way.
But everyone knows that if they continue to fight like this, they will already be at a disadvantage, and the Tang army will only become stronger with each passing day.
But there is no gain from the attack, and there is no progress except a waste of soldiers' lives. This dilemma tortures all coalition commanders.
…
The third terminal of Yongdong Port has been put into use. The cranes built can unload containers from cargo ships at the fastest speed and lift them to waiting container trucks.
These trucks have just arrived at the port, and they can increase the speed of unloading goods. While restoring the throughput capacity of Yongdong Port, the Tang Empire also modernized the terminal.
The ship responsible for clearing the channel is cruising outside the port. The sturdy giant ship has completed its task and is slowly leaving the port. Another similar ship is passing by it, and the sound of the whistle echoes in the port, inspiring the place.
All working people.
Seagulls surrounded these huge ships, and the war seemed to be completely far away from here. The patrolling destroyers looked very small lying on the horizon, and the entire port was a busy and peaceful scene.
The stevedores at the dock are still busy. Although container trucks often take over their jobs, bulk carriers still dock from time to time, and these workers still need to help unload the cargo.
Countless supplies came ashore from here, including all kinds of cement, all kinds of equipment and equipment, and... soldiers who had just arrived.
Although the number is not too large, the Tang Army has resumed some troop transport work: about 1,000 soldiers are transported from the North Island to Everwinter City every day. Most of them are newly recruited supplementary soldiers, and only a few are from the 7th Army.
Eric's 7th Army was about to land ashore, so some officers were sent here in advance to conduct on-the-spot inspections and check out the forward stations. They wanted to analyze the situation here and then formulate a follow-up transfer plan for the troops.
In addition, a large number of pilots arrived at Everwinter Port by ship, where they wanted to replace their colleagues who had been fighting fiercely on the front line for two months and give them a holiday to rest.
In short, the entire port is very busy, so busy that anyone who has actually seen the total throughput here is very sure: the Ice Empire is destined to lose.
In just this month, Everwinter City has almost equaled its highest throughput during the period of dwarf control.
If this port is given another period of time, it will definitely become busier. Once the throughput increases, the economy here will also improve.
Countless industrial products, ammunition and other things were sent here and then distributed from here... At least during the war, the importance of Everwinter Port is self-evident.
The scale of this port will only get bigger and bigger, and the things it carries will only get heavier and heavier. The Tang Empire will build this port into one of the largest ports in the Eastern Continent, or at least one of the most important ports in the northern region!
There are transport ships docked at the three piers, and the largest one even exceeds 90,000 tons: this kind of giant ship is almost impossible to see in other countries, and is basically purchased and operated by the shipping company of the Datang Group.
Giant ships can transport a large amount of cargo at a time. They usually operate on the route between Paolong Island and Linshui. Now they have been transferred to a new route and have begun to take charge of transportation between Linshui and Yongdong Port.
One self-propelled artillery piece after another was lifted off the transport ship, and the artillery commanders waiting on the dock were handing over these equipment to the port director.
These artillery were strengthened for the 9th Army. Their artillery lost some equipment before, but now new weapons have been shipped to replenish them to restore their organization.
Everything seems to be in order, and dwarf women can even be seen carrying baskets on the streets.
Some of the bombed-out buildings still maintain their original appearance, and some of the buildings with minor damage have been repaired. The glass showcases in the past are filled with goods from the Tang Empire. It seems that life has returned to its original appearance.
Although mottled bullet marks can still be seen on the walls, and although the paint slogans "Resist to the End" painted by some dwarves have not had time to be cleaned - these things prove to everyone the past here, but they are being eroded and destroyed by the future.
Military vehicles of the Tang Army can still be seen on the roadside, but there are gradually more and more civilian cars under the traffic lights. In order to meet the needs of the Tang Army's vacationers, bars and shops in the city have also begun to open for business, and movie theaters have also been prioritized to be cleared and renovated.
On this day, the first batch of floating docks built at the landing site were damaged and scrapped.
It was also on this day that the General Headquarters of the Landing Forces of the Tang Empire moved to Yongdong City. Tiger chose a spacious and bright office, and the building he chose was the office building of the Datang Group in Yongdong Port.
