Putting down the telescope in his hand, Wilkes looked at the chief of staff beside him: "How long?"
After hearing the question, the chief of staff looked down at his watch and replied: "About half an hour."
Wilkes nodded, then handed the binoculars to his adjutant, and ordered: "The bombardment can stop, let the troops go up and collect the bodies of those fools!"
"Boom!" The last shell landed on the Holy Demon Empire's defenders' position, which had been shrouded in thick smoke for a long time.
After issuing the attack order, Wilkes continued to bombard the Holy Demon Empire's defense line and let his air force strangle all nearby dragon knights.
Now that all subsequent supplies have been mobilized, the real attack can naturally begin.
The soldiers of the Holy Demon Empire in the trench pulled away the floating soil covering their bodies, squinted their eyes and stood up from the trench that had been half blown flat.
Looking around, this defense line, which was once covered with trenches and even reinforced with cement in some areas, is full of potholes. The bomb craters are one after another, which has destroyed most of the trench layout. The machine gun fire points have long since disappeared.
Bodies were left all over the ground, broken and incomplete.
He struggled to help dig out the comrades beside him from the floating soil. The other party said a curt thank you, and the two of them began to look for other survivors.
The 130mm caliber howitzer position behind them had long been wiped out. It was bombarded by the 203mm caliber howitzers belonging to the Airan Hill Group Army. After proving their bravery, the artillerymen of the Holy Demon Empire rushed to report to the God of Death.
.
The gap in firepower between the two sides is simply a world of difference. On one side is the powerful roar of a strong man, and on the other side is the gasp of a little girl trying to resist the attack. For the border guards of the Holy Demon Empire, life is really like this.
I was raped and couldn't resist, so I could only enjoy it with peace of mind.
"About twenty minutes ago, we could no longer hear the sound of artillery fire from our own people... The attack on Elanhir has not started yet..." A member of the Holy Demon Empire was finally dug out of the soil by his subordinates.
The knight commander shook off the dirt from his body, frowned and complained.
They were ordered to repel the enemy's attack, but before the enemy attacked, they were all dead... With such a huge gap, why bother fighting?
"Sir! Sir! The enemy, the Eilanhir people, are coming!" A soldier, holding the helmet on his head, ran staggeringly along the long-collapsed trench, panting and reporting.
The officer was startled, and quickly picked up the telescope imitating Ailan Hill on his chest, wanting to take a look at the situation in the distance.
As a result, he discovered at this time that his telescope was broken and the lenses had been crushed.
He tore off the telescope, smashed it at his feet bitterly, looked at his few remaining men, and loudly ordered: "Fight with these Ailansylvans! For the Holy Demon Empire! For victory!
"
As he shouted, the tall body of an M4 tank crashed through the thick smoke caused by the explosion. It easily crossed a small crater, its tracks rolled up the soft soil, and rolled forward slowly.
On the thick artillery shield, the slender barrel is majestic, and the hollow eagle emblem on the armored steel plate on the head also gives people a strong sense of oppression.
On one side of this tank, another M4 tank also broke through the black smoke, revealing its majestic body.
The 3rd Army is also an odd-numbered army, and it is also the famous main force. Because its weapons and equipment have been stationed in the industrial area, it is also the trump card of Ireland Hill that has been stacked to the extreme.
In the first charge of the border battle, Wilkes committed a tank division with more than 300 tanks. These tanks covered the mechanized infantry of the 33rd Division behind them, and densely charged into the defensive positions of the Holy Demon Empire.
"!" On the defensive position of the Holy Demon Empire, the first shot of counterattack finally rang out. Then the sound of the gunshot was answered by the sound of the main gun on the M4 tank firing.
Immediately afterwards, at least three tanks opened fire, hitting the trench near the Holy Demon Empire soldier who was fighting back.
The place was quickly shrouded in smoke. At this time, the Ailan Hill M4 tank had already rolled over the first defensive position of the Holy Demon Empire and ran over the already mutilated corpses.
Behind these tanks were a group of Irish Grenadiers with bayonets in hand. Their leather boots made a crunching sound on the soil that had been softened by the shells.
Countless shining bayonets formed a sharp forest. The grenadiers of the 33rd Division moved forward slowly, screening the place they passed without missing any breathing target.
A surrendered Holy Demon Empire soldier raised his hands high and knelt on the ground. Beside him were the Airan Hill soldiers passing by him one by one. These attacking soldiers ignored the enemy who was kneeling and begging for surrender, because they did not bother to fight against such an enemy.
Poke out their deadly spurs.
"Buzz!" Above the head, the engines of the lingering Il-2 attack aircraft roared. These attack aircraft passing over the enemy's positions at low altitude were like the god of death. As long as they saw a moving target, they would shoot past it and beat the Holy Demon.
The soldiers of the empire were miserable.
For the soldiers of the Holy Demon Empire on the border, their air supremacy was completely lost yesterday. All the dragon knights who dared to take off to fight have been wiped out by Airan Hill's fighter jets.
The completely lost Dragon Knight troops have retreated. Everything that can fly in the sky now belongs to Ailanthil.
With such an obvious gap in combat power, the only reason why the Holy Demon Empire has persisted until now is that the ground attack of Ailan Hill has only begun now.
"Butter! Buzz!" A Maxim machine gun position suddenly opened fire, and the bullets hit the front armor plate of a tank, leaving a row of paint peeling marks on it.
A few stubborn Holy Demon Empire soldiers were using their last moments to pour out the ammunition in their hands. Then, in the next second, they were beaten into pieces by the coaxial machine gun on the tank.
The tracer bullet hit the soil and splashed up a cloud of white smoke. When the white smoke dissipated, the machine gun and everyone around it were already reduced to parts.
A few minutes later, the tracks of the tank rolled over this place, and no one cared about the corpses that had turned into mud under their feet. The Ailan Hill soldiers behind the tanks moved forward steadily with weapons in hand, receiving the scattered surrenders of the Holy Demon Empire.
who.
Four days after the Holy Demon Empire made a sneak attack along the westward railway, Eiland Hill's ground counterattack officially began.
The 1st Army, under the command of General Walter, advanced 100 kilometers along the westward railway line in one day; the 2nd Army, under the command of General Rest, advanced about 80 kilometers southwest; Wilkes
The general advanced 90 kilometers on the southern front, forming a huge encirclement.
All the Holy Demon Empire troops in this encirclement were forced to retreat, abandoning the defensive positions they had constructed.
It's a pity that the retreat speed of these troops is only a pitiful 50 kilometers a day, which is not as good as the Eilanhir army that surrounds them on both sides and is constantly attacking.
On the same day, the forces on the southern front of the Eternal Empire continued to be defeated. The troops of the Puppet Empire used the weapons and equipment of Elan Hill to sweep through the southern defense line of the Eternal Empire, annihilating a large number of the effective forces of the Eternal Empire, and gained another victory on the battlefield.
Total victory.
On the other side, the Norma Empire stubbornly resisted the Kashyyyk Empire advancing northward. The two sides fought a decisive battle on the southern plains of the Norma Empire. The Norma Empire won a complete victory and stabilized its position.
Under the two-sided attack of the Balmesil Empire and the Jesno Empire, the Palak Empire retreated steadily and lost all the areas south of the South Wakaton River.
The war was very stalemate during this period. Except for Greken who resisted the demon's attack alone and did not participate in this war, all countries were fighting their enemies in their own ways.
In this regard, Ireland, which has a strong military, a complete mobilization system, and possesses nuclear weapons, has become the biggest winner.
Although the Holy Demon Empire's sneak attack on the westbound railway caused trouble for Ailan Hill, after a brief pause, Ailan Hill who counterattacked immediately firmly grasped the initiative on the battlefield.
The 7th Army, the 8th Army, and the 4th Army heading north, as the three reserve groups in northern Ireland, have not yet joined the frontal assault operations at this time.
In other words, this time, Ailancier prepared 6 armies for the Holy Demon Empire in one go. This was a huge force that Ailancier had never assembled in the same direction since the founding of the country.
From top to bottom, all the senior officials of Ailan Hill also knew that this time His Majesty the Emperor was truly angry. He no longer intended to allow the Holy Demon Empire, a country that had always been against Ailan Hill, to exist in this world.
Up.
"What your puppet empire promised me! You won't be able to fulfill it, right?" The Grand Consul stared at the man in black in front of him and said impatiently: "If Ilan Hill is allowed to push a few hundred kilometers further to the west, that kind of thing will happen.
The legendary nuclear weapon is about to fall on Bellevue’s head!”
"Don't doubt the credibility of the puppet empire! When have we never fulfilled our promises?" The man in black smiled and said without any nervousness: "Didn't you already see it? Our troops have already
It has been a long time since we crossed the border, and we will soon reach the front line! By then...those arrogant Elanshir people will know the power of the puppet empire."
"In the first batch, we have already reinforced your 300-strong army! How many people can there be in Ailan Hill? After they destroy these 3 million troops, we can reinforce you with 10 million troops! Hey hey hey hey." That Hei
The man in clothes said with a strange smile.
After he finished speaking, he glanced at the Grand Consul again and comforted him: "Don't worry, we have another set of countermeasures. We don't necessarily have to turn the entire Holy Demon Empire into a battlefield!"
"What countermeasures?" The Grand Consul was very curious about this statement, his eyes lit up, and he asked.
The man in black did not hide anything and replied: "You have to know that the rise of Ailan Hill is probably due to that emperor Chris! As long as the emperor is gone, the ministers who hold the power will naturally
They started killing each other... At that time, will they still have the intention to attack your Holy Demon Empire? Hahahaha."
It is known to everyone that the emperor of Elanthir has no heirs. In a sense, this may be one of the few remaining weaknesses of the powerful Elantyr Empire.
Smiling, the man in black exited the Grand Archon's room, and the corridor echoed with eerie laughter.
…
In Grecken, in the magical holy city of Galenock, a magician walked into a dome hall with a melancholy look. He stood behind Grand Magister Ronsardele on crutches and reminded him in a low voice: "We sense
It’s magic wave! The Puppet Empire has dispatched the God Puppet! It is controlled from a distance... The target is probably..."
"Immediately send a telegram to inform the Elanthir side! We... can't mobilize too many magicians to help... let Vivian and the others go, we can't let the puppet empire threaten the Emperor of Elanthir.
safety.”
"Yes! Your Excellency, Grand Magister Lonzadelai!" The magician bowed respectfully and exited the room.
"Travish...my old friend...is this the way you came up with to sneak attack on Ailan Hill?" Shaking his head, Grand Magister Lonzadelai had a wry smile on his face: "What are you doing?
When the time comes, can we become more upright?"
A few hours later, Vivian looked at the B-17 bomber that had started its engine at the airport, turned her head and looked at Capeluna standing next to her: "This is the fastest plane you can find.
Already?"
"It can fly to a height that even transport planes cannot fly. There is nothing in the Holy Demon Empire that can intercept this kind of plane! Taking it is much faster and safer than taking a transport plane!" Luna explained.
Vivian nodded, then looked at her companions on the other side: "Get on the plane! Gentlemen! It can fly to an altitude of 10,000 meters, and we can save a lot of magic energy."
"Okay! As you wish." The magician who always smiled nodded and walked towards the B-17 bomber immediately. The chubby woman followed him, and the thin magician followed closely.
past.
The elderly magician rubbed his neck, arched his back and sighed: "Alas...I have old bones, and I still have to suffer this...it's true."
After all, he still walked towards the bomber. Vivian smiled at Luna, and then put a mask on her face, covering her beautiful face: "Goodbye!
"
"Goodbye!" Luna waved to her, watching the bomber soar into the sky amidst the roar of its engines, and then turned and left. In fact, she was very sad, because she did not have the combat power as strong as Vivian, and she did not
Find a way to rush back and stand in front of that great man...——
