Only five days had passed since the declaration of war. Chisong looked at a large area of land that had turned into the color of Bunitalia, with nothing but vicissitudes of life and exhaustion on his face.
In the past few days, Bunitalia's attacks have not stopped at all, and they are strange and changeable. Sometimes they attack steadily and step by step, and sometimes they advance by leaps and bounds and expand rapidly.
Today's Tokyo is already Bunitalia's rear area. The Yokosuka naval port, where the counterattack was launched, failed to block Bunitalia's attack and fell into the hands of the enemy under attack from both front and rear. The Yokosuka fleet suffered heavy losses.
The ground troops that went to support were all lost. Fortunately, the Wu fleet did not arrive in time, which saved the fire for counterattack. It has now returned to Wu Military Port to rest.
In the direction of the Ominato military port, the Five Crane and Sasebo fleets successfully merged with the Ominato fleet and successfully repelled Bunitalia's attack. The Ominato military port was saved, but... the dilapidated military port had lost its original role.
And it didn't cause much damage to Bunitalia's army.
In the direction of Itsukushima base, Akamatsu gathered elite naval forces and prepared to destroy the Bunitalia fleet staying outside the maximum cordon in one fell swoop. However, as soon as the opponent discovered that Itsukushima's elite troops were dispatched, they began to retreat. Waiting for Itsukushima's Sakura Kingdom
When the fleet began to return, it returned to its original position, launched a pursuit and then began to retreat. It was simply a shameless thing written on its face, without even trying to hide it.
Starting from Numazu, Mount Fuji, Fujiyoshida, Yamanashi, Okano, Ashikaga, Tochigi, Fukushima, and all the way to Miyagi are Bunitalia's occupied areas. In just 5 days, nearly one-sixth of the land.
The Ground Self-Defense Forces had no ability to resist at all, and would either be completely wiped out by the Knightmare forces in a very short period of time, or simply choose to surrender.
What made Akamatsu most helpless was not this, but the Hokkaido area. Cornelia's [Rose Witch] Knights directly parachuted into the Chitose base in Hokkaido, wiped out the defenders without any effort, and took it as their own.
Base area, and then slowly expand outwards, or a three-machine team wanders out, turning the entire Hokkaido area upside down.
Now it is no longer possible to organize an effective resistance force. It is just a piece of meat that will be eaten directly when the large army of the Bunitalia Empire arrives.
Once Hokkaido fell, the remaining territory in the northern part of Sakura Country fell into a two-sided attack. Even if Akamatsu had the ability to reach the sky, he would not be able to reverse the decline of Sakura Country. He would either lead the entire army to withdraw to the southern part of Sakura Country, or be defeated by Bunitali.
Ya ate until no bones were left.
"Your Excellency General!"
"Is it bad news again?" Seeing the panic expressions of his men, Chisong knew that it must be bad news again.
"Yes...yes." The subordinate swallowed and nodded.
"Say it."
"Bunitalia's reinforcements have arrived."
"Reinforcements? Where did the reinforcements come from?" Chisong was stunned for a moment. Unless it was a large-scale airlift, the reinforcements from the Bunitalia Empire would not arrive until at least half a month later. If they were just airlifted reinforcements, it would be impossible for his men to arrive.
It's such an expression.
"It's [TEN]'s fleet. The third prince of Bunitaria, Clovis, personally led the two fleets to the Yokosuka military port."
"[TEN]'s fleet! How is that possible?"
This shocked Akamatsu. Under normal circumstances, the lords of Bunitalia would not interfere in affairs outside the territory. Unless the emperor of the empire personally ordered it, they would have to carry it out. Even if other lords asked for help, they would not see it.
The lord will answer or not.
【TEN】The distance from Sakura Country is almost a quarter of the world, and Clovis still personally brought people to support, which shows how good the relationship between Yang Hui and Clovis is.
"Your Majesty General, what should we... do?"
"...How is the research progress on Knightmare?" Akamatsu asked.
Since Glasgow was replaced by Sunderland, various places have begun to change their equipment. Most of the eliminated Glasgows have been thrown into warehouses waiting to be dismantled, but a small part has still been lost. Some people in the logistics department want to make some extra money, so they will
The Glasgow that ate dust in the warehouse was sold on the black market and then ended up in the hands of various countries.
Naturally, Sakura Country would not miss this opportunity. It spent a lot of money to get a few Glasgows from the black market, and then began to study Knightmare technology, because the whole world believed that the Bunitalia Empire could be so powerful militarily.
Because Knightmare, without the advantages of Knightmare, is nothing.
Therefore, after Sakura Country obtained several Glasgows, it invested huge manpower and material resources in research, hoping to develop Knightmare belonging to Sakura Country.
"...It's ongoing. It's said to be making good progress."
"The progress is good? Haha, how good is it!? When will we be able to come up with the Knightmare that can compete with Bunitalia!?"
"this……"
"Haha, you bastards of the Kyoto Six!" Akamatsu yelled. Those Glasgows were bought from the black market with the money of the Kyoto Six. In the entire Sakura Country, only the Kyoto Six could afford this money. Of course, the development rights of Knightmare also
It fell on the six families of Kyoto.
Since the beginning of the war, all senior officers who surrendered were from the Six Kyoto Families. Even a fool could see that they were hedging their bets. The only problem would be if the development progress of Knightmare could be accelerated! Even if it could be produced as soon as possible, it would not be a problem.
Will let Akamatsu know!
"Your Majesty General, should we... withdraw to the southern region?"
"Withdraw? Haha." Akamatsu glanced at his subordinates and smiled coldly, "The six Kyoto families have built their empire in the southern region centered on Kyoto. There... there is no place for us anymore."
It was because of the defeat that year that the young faction of Akamatsu suffered an unprecedented blow. This retreat meant defeat. Another defeat. Not to mention that Akamatsu had no way to survive. Even the young faction could only disappear into thin air. The entire Sakura Country was just like this.
The world will become the domain of those old bastards from the Six Families of Kyoto. Under their leadership, Sakura Country will only become Bunitalia’s dog!
"But your Excellency, General, you can keep the green hills without worrying about having no firewood."
"...Go back to your post."
"yes……"
"Bang~!"
The moment his men turned around, a gunshot rang out. He looked down at his chest in disbelief. His clothes were dyed red, and there was a hole in his left chest, which was very cold.
"General...jun..."
"Plop~"
Chisong looked at the body lying on the ground with cold eyes: "I have known for a long time that you are from the Sixth Family of Kyoto, come here!"
"General!" Those who rushed in were Chisong's security squad, all of whom were his dead soldiers.
"Dispose of the body and make it known to the public that he is a spy of Bunitalia."
"yes."
…
On the other side of the Yokosuka Naval Port, Yang Hui stood on the shore and watched the fleet in the distance getting closer and closer.
"Mr. Yang Hui, I have confirmed my identity. It is the [TEN] fleet led by Clovis."
"It's finally here." Yang Hui nodded and raised the corners of his mouth.
In fact, two days ago, Bunitalia's troops stopped attacking across the board, not for any other reason but because there were not that many people left.
The territory we have conquered is too big, and there are not enough people to take over it. We have to divide the offensive combat troops. The troops left behind before Cornelia left are already dwarfed by your original garrison troops. Even on the Hokkaido side,
Cornelia could only guard one-third of an acre of the Chitose base, and there was no one to take over the areas captured from outside.
[Nightmare] The Knights are also resting at the Yokosuka Military Port. They have fought countless battles and small battles. It is time to take a rest and recharge their batteries, waiting for Clovis to arrive and take over the northern part of Sakura Country in one go.
Soon, warships entered the port one after another, and Clovis slowly walked down from the flagship, with elegant steps and dignified posture.
"Don't think that you can show off in front of me just because you have been the governor for a few years. Come on down!" Yang Hui looked at Clovis's slow steps and couldn't help but complain loudly. Otherwise, he would really doubt it for a few minutes.
The trip to Clovis is half an hour away!
Sure enough, when he heard Yang Hui's complaints, Clovis staggered and almost fell. After steadying himself, he ran over with a red face, grabbed Yang Hui's collar and yelled.
"Yang Hui! You bastard! As soon as you call me, I will quickly bring people from [TEN] to help you fight the war. Even if you are not grateful, you still treat me like this! You are going too far!"
"Uh uh uh... don't... stop shaking." Yang Hui broke away from Clovis's hands and took a few breaths of fresh air, "[Empire's Nightmare] didn't die on the battlefield, but was almost shaken to death by you, you
Do you really want to be remembered in history?"
"Get out! It's too much!"
"Okay, I can leave, but give your fleet to me first."
"Okay! Yang Hui! I've been bumping on the sea for so many days, and I was worried that I would be late and didn't care about my own body to let them speed up. In the end, you did this to me? Good! You're fine! I'm going! I'll take me with you
Let’s go back together! You go and fight your own battle!”
"No!" Yang Hui quickly put his arm around Clovis's shoulders and said intimately, "You're already here, give me a chance to entertain you, brother."
"Really? How are you going to entertain me?" Clovis still held his head high, but his little eyes squinted at Yang Hui.
"A top-notch banquet in Sakura Country."
"Not interested! I'm leaving!"
"Wait a minute! The zaibatsu of Tokyo gave me many famous paintings. I heard that they include "The Pine Eagle" by Kano Eitoku and "The Eight Bridges" by Ogata Korin."
"Do you have Suzuki Harunobu's "Beautiful Night Rain"?"
"There should be some. They are all in my warehouse. You can choose whatever you want."
"make a deal!"
Reggie Reggie, who was beside him, laughed and shook his head. Clovis's secretary and adjutant even covered their faces and were speechless. These two guys are not princes. They are just speculators on the street. This bargaining process is simply ridiculous.
Not too silky.
"Let's go to my office. I'll take you to the Governor's Palace tomorrow."
"No problem. This is Rear Admiral Neil, the commander-in-chief of the fleet. I will leave him to you. You can make arrangements." Clovis also handed over the general power casually, knowing that he had no
Since I am capable of commanding the fleet, I don't have to worry about that. If I insist on following him this time, it is nothing more than to send a signal to the outside world that I am on Yang Hui's side. That's all.
