The waves crashed on the beach, creating white waves. A middle-aged man wearing the uniform of an Irish officer was walking on the beach with his hands behind his back, surrounded by officers wearing another type of military uniform.
The officer cautiously accompanied him from behind, nervously explaining something to some fortifications behind the coast.
About less than a hundred meters away from the beach, you can vaguely see stacked sandbags and some cement-reinforced bunkers.
You can also see countless migrant workers working on the defense line, expanding this seemingly unreliable defense line.
"We don't have many automatic weapons, so the firepower is really too weak." The officer in different uniforms kept smiling and begged: "So, I hope that Elanthir can provide us with more weapons and ammunition.
"
After hearing the news about the demon going south, the entire Palak Empire was actually very nervous. Of course, they would try their best to cooperate with Ailancier in setting up their own defense line, and were even willing to sign some treaties in exchange for Ailancier's support.
Because they didn't know where the demons would land, or how many troops the other side would send to land, the Palak Empire had no choice but to deploy its own defense line along the entire coastline.
Fortunately, most of the coastline of the Palak Empire is mountainous and not suitable for landing operations, so there are not many areas that they need to defend.
But for the Palak Empire, such defensive pressure was enough to cause them to collapse.
The devil has a floating city. This information has been confirmed. If the devil's floating city directly crosses the coastline of the mountainous area, wouldn't it be able to directly bypass the defense line of the Palak Empire?
Therefore, the Palak Empire not only urgently needs ground weapons and equipment, but also needs a large number of air force fighter units to protect their entire airspace.
"We have deployed 300,000 troops here and have stored approximately 200 million rounds of ammunition. However... our defense system is still full of loopholes." The officer of the Napalak Empire complained.
He has been trying his best to strengthen his defense, but he feels more and more that his defense is weak.
Ordinary soldiers of the Palak Empire probably have about the same equipment as the first-generation grenadiers of Elanthir: the standard equipment is an M42 steel helmet and a Mauser 98k rifle.
In fact, their grenade equipment is not as good as that of the first-generation Airan Hill Grenadier. Each of them probably only has one grenade, and there are not enough bullets.
The 130 No. 2 paratrooper tanks of the Palak Empire that Eiland Hill had earlier assisted were equipped with 30 mm caliber rapid-fire cannons as their main weapons. This was the entire armored strength of the Palak Empire a few days ago.
The Palak Empire only has bulky Maxim machine guns, and its anti-aircraft troops only have 30mm anti-aircraft guns, as well as some other weird weapons that Elanthir doesn't want.
The Palak Empire Air Force, which is fairly well equipped, has hundreds of second-hand fighter jets purchased from Eiland Hill, as well as IL-2 attack aircraft and a small number of B-25 bombers.
Most of these aircraft do not have the capability of all-weather combat, and their numbers are quite acceptable. In addition, there are many pilots from the Palak Empire who have been trained in Eiland Hill, and they have a certain combat effectiveness.
If we use such strength and level, it will be barely enough to deal with opponents like the Jesno Empire and the Balmesil Empire, but it will be barely enough to deal with demons.
As the demons moved south, Eilandhir urgently allocated some aid supplies and sold them to the Palak Empire for a fee.
This batch of materials allowed the Palak Empire to possess a considerable amount of heavy weapons and equipment, almost doubling the strength of the Palak Empire.
Eiland Hill allocated and sold 100 B-25 bombers, 70 IL-2 attack aircraft, and 140 Mustang P-51 fighter jets to the Palak Empire, which greatly enhanced the Palak Empire's air force strength.
At the same time, Eiland Hill also allocated some second-hand M4 tanks from some troops to the Palak Empire, increasing the number of armored troops in the Palak Empire.
Some of these tanks came from the 201st Armored Division. About 300 M4 tanks of various models were transported to the Palak Empire. The receipt of so many tanks strengthened the determination of the Palak Empire to resist to the end.
At the same time, more than 100 captured cannons were sold to the Palak Empire, most of which were 130 mm caliber from the Holy Demon Empire. Most of the artillery shells were drawn from the Holy Demon Empire's reserves, so the transfer speed was very fast.
This type of weapons and equipment does not need to be produced, and can be directly delivered to the Palak Empire relying on the developed railway lines and terrifying air transport capabilities of Airan Hill.
In addition to the 130mm-caliber cannons, some zsu-57-2 self-propelled anti-aircraft guns that were eliminated by Airan Hill were also sent here to help the Palak Empire establish a more reliable air defense network.
Even so, the commanders who have experienced the defense battle of Eilansil Ferry City all know that if the demons really land in the Palak Empire, these weapons will not be able to prevent the demons from landing.
If the opponent randomly dispatches a force, it is possible to crush the coast defense forces of the Palak Empire, and then the rest will be even simpler: Palak is defeated like a mountain, and the demons drive straight in, completely destroying everything they can see.
Lose.
Everyone knows very well that if it doesn't take even a day, the demon will break through the defense line, and then brutally massacre these soldiers, killing them all.
Therefore, those big businessmen and big chaebols who have some roots in the Airanhir Empire are trying to find ways to transfer their family properties out of the Palak Empire. They know that this place is almost an abandoned scorched earth.
"You have done a good job. If nothing goes wrong, many demons will be wiped out on the beach by you." The officer from Eiland Hill comforted him.
He was ordered to come here to inspect the fortifications of the Palak Empire, but after inspection, he found that without the support of weapons, these fortifications were just some expensive tombs.
As expected, the trenches will soon be broken through by the devil's strong phalanx, and the machine gun bunker will run out of bullets and become useless within an hour after the battle begins.
Everyone in this position will eventually die, and die in a very humble manner. They may be able to destroy some demons, but facing the thick magic defense barrier of the demon army, most of the attacks by the soldiers of the Palak Empire cannot be broken.
Turn on Demon's Defense.
After he came here, the troops of the Palak Empire that he saw had a sense of antiquity that made him nostalgic. He had seen the equipment of these troops from the past Airan Hill army. They seemed familiar, but they had been eliminated long ago.
.
"We all know that this is in vain, right?" The officer from the Palak Empire smiled bitterly and said.
The officer from Eiland Hill shook his head and denied the other party's guess: "I think you are actually thinking too much."
In any case, those temporarily deployed artillery pieces are being pushed into the dug firing positions by the soldiers of the Palak Empire.
The artillerymen had seized the time and aimed the muzzles of these artillery guns in the direction of fire. They rolled up the barrels of the 130mm howitzers so that the black muzzles faced the sky.
Next to these cannons, the 30mm anti-aircraft guns that had been deployed long ago were also pointing towards the sky. There was a solemn atmosphere around the entire beach.
"Isn't the radar system also given to you? At least you can monitor the airspace of the entire country." Seeing that the other party did not speak, the officer from Ailan Hill changed the subject and asked.
He also knew that in this situation, asking the other party for their speculation on the entire battle situation was a very despairing thing.
The officer's face obviously improved, and he nodded and said: "The radar and patrolling fighter jets have given us some preparations. If the devil attacks in the direction of those mountains, the air force will find a way to shoot down the devil's floating castle!"
"Well, that's good! I will help you get more ammunition and more weapons as soon as possible, so we still have hope." The officer from Ailan Hill told the other party firmly.
said.
"I hope... there will always be something... Sir, you can see how busy I am these days..." The officer from Palak stuffed a bunch of bills into the pocket of Officer Ailan Hill.
Inside, he cried and begged: "My family is in the capital. The house with the white door on the corner of Kyle Street is..."
As he spoke, he pressed the hand of Officer Eiland Hill and begged: "Please accept this money. I can't leave. It's my responsibility to protect the land. When you leave, can you take my daughter and wife away with you?"
That’s fine! You are an officer of Elanthir and have the privilege of crossing the border! Please! Please!”
"I can try my best to help your family, but I can't accept this money." The officer from Ailan Hill stretched out his hand and wanted to return the money to the other party.
But the other party refused to take it back, life and death: "I know you are not such a person, but the two of them are helpless in Ailan Hill, so I can only ask you to help me with this!"
The Airan Hill officer smiled bitterly, and the strength of the struggle on his hands became less intense. Of course he knew that recently near the border between Airan Hill and the Palak Empire, countless people were trying to cross the border to seek safety.
Everyone is already aware of this kind of thing, so it is not strange for a privileged officer like him to be asked to come to our house.
So he smiled bitterly and stopped struggling: "Don't worry, the difficulties are only temporary and everything will be fine."
His words made the officers of the Palak Empire slightly startled, and then they nodded heavily and agreed: "Yes, the difficulties will always pass. I hope I still have a chance to see my family."
Having said this, he turned back and looked at the flag of the Palak Empire flying in the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.
The Airan Hill officer looked at this scene and sighed in his heart: Being in Airan Hill is already the happiest thing in this troubled world.
