In April, the capital of the puppet empire, Centipede City Burklan, was a behemoth that had been moving at a fast pace, showing no signs of stopping for a moment.
After all, Eiland Hill dropped four more nuclear bombs in March. Although they were all nuclear warheads with smaller yields, their power should not be underestimated.
In order to avoid the attack of nuclear weapons, Bourkeland has been doing irregular movements, for fear that if he stops, a nuclear bomb will come to his door as a gift...
On the tall and huge magic tower above Bulkland's centipede, a general of the puppet empire was reporting to Grand Magister Travish about the unfavorable situation of the puppet empire in the past month.
In fact, the unfavorable situation has already emerged last year, and now everyone is well aware of this even more unfavorable situation.
However, no one dared to tell the truth. Everyone was silent, waiting for a possible miracle to appear in the next second.
For example, the army of Airan Hill suddenly collapsed... Or the emperor of Airan Hill passed away mysteriously...
He turned to a new page in the report and turned over the section where all the troops in Longshek were annihilated. It was this section of Longshek that made Grand Magister Travish furious and interrupted him by throwing a cup.
of report.
Now, he honestly skipped this paragraph and started talking about the Air Force of Airan Hill and its suppression of the puppet empire's ground forces: "Our troop movements were all targeted by the Air Force of Airan Hill."
Anyway, from this general's point of view, as long as he finds a way to shift the responsibility to other troops, he will have completed his mission.
At present, this is a very good opportunity to blame the puppet empire. The air force's combat effectiveness is poor and it has dragged down the ground troops. This argument is obviously very convincing.
So the general spat out his saliva and said: "Our dragons and high-level magicians... they can't pose a threat to the opponent's bomber force."
Not only these original so-called air forces, but also the rocket-propelled shock-electric fighter jets stolen by the puppet empire were unable to raid the bomber force of Elland Hill at high altitudes.
The b-17 bomber was okay, but still suffered some interference. The b-52 simply flew higher, and those so-called "advanced fighter jets" all gave up.
After all, no matter how advanced the advanced fighter jets are, they are only World War II-level things, and there is still an essential performance gap between them and real Cold War weapons and equipment.
This is like buying a family car. No matter how much you modify it, as long as it still has the same design and frame, it cannot be compared with a professional racing car.
"Actually, the Demon fighter jets we got from the Demon Army cannot really effectively intercept the enemy's B-52 bombers." The general added, with reluctance written all over his face.
Guns are not as good as people, and artillery is not as good as people. This war has been fought so far, and it is not far from the actual edge of collapse.
He adjusted the speed of his speech, trying his best to prevent his words from irritating the already very angry Travis, and continued: "Our puppet soldiers can rarely enter the war zone in large numbers now.
Even if a force of 1,000 troops gathers for action, it is possible to attract attack aircraft from Eiland Hill."
Travish was actually very annoyed in his heart, but he still could only try his best to maintain his image and not leak the feeling that things were out of his control to these subordinates.
In the early stages of the war, he actually knew that the war would have certain twists and turns, and that the puppet empire would even suffer some losses.
What he thought at that time was that as long as demonic troops entered the world and a full-scale war broke out, the decline of the puppet empire would quickly be reversed. The agreement reached between him and the origin of magic would become the last straw to save mankind.
However, who could have imagined that the war would be so unfavorable as it is now. Even the arrival of the demonic troops on the front line and the dispersion of Elanthir's forces failed to allow the puppet empire to stabilize its front?
What's even more ridiculous is that not only the Puppet Empire, but also the demon troops were beaten by Ailanthir and had no energy or strength to reinforce the puppet empire and help stabilize the situation.
Things have obviously deviated from his prediction, but what can he do? Should he write a letter and mail it to Eiland Hill, telling that shameless young emperor, saying I'm sorry, I was wrong, let's shake hands and make peace.
Let’s forget about past grudges, right?
It is estimated that the other party will launch a nuclear bomb according to the postmark address... It is not to really destroy the cities of the puppet empire, but maybe just to vent their hatred.
He is also building power plants and trying to carry out some modern construction, but compared to the achievements of Elland Hill, these reforms he made are almost like children's jokes.
Last year, the total power generation of Alan Hill was about one trillion, and the total power generation of the Puppet Empire was 10,000... Well, the difference is not much, just one word difference.
The reality is almost as Chris expected. The hope of surpassing Alan Hill in the development speed of industrial civilization is probably as slim as the Qing government's attempt to surpass the United States in the 21st century through the Westernization Movement...
"We tried to mobilize troops to reinforce the front line, but large-scale troops marching during the day was simply suicide. We lost more than 200,000 puppets in the bombing, which has exceeded our production speed." After talking about the enemy's bombing, the general said
I had to mention the loss.
The losses on the front line are actually getting bigger and bigger. As the fixed front line is broken through, the mobile warfare that Airan Hill is best at has begun. A large number of puppet troops have been divided and surrounded in the wilderness, and the organized ones have been annihilated.
"The number of puppet troops on the front line is decreasing, and the areas we control are also decreasing. We no longer have the means to obtain many resources in the occupied areas, which has slowed down our puppet production speed a lot." He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and continued down.
said.
"Last month, we created 150,000 puppet soldiers, but only about 30,000 arrived at the front line." When he said this, he glanced at Travish on the first seat and lowered his voice: "Even so,
We still lost a large amount of occupied territory...We lost about 550,000 puppets last month, which was more than fifteen times the number of puppet soldiers we sent to the front line."
The general kept talking, but the content of what he said made Grand Magister Travish's face become increasingly ugly.
The war has reached this point, and the various materials accumulated by the puppet empire have begun to be in short supply.
It is not only the production of puppet soldiers, but also the replacement of lost high-level magicians, the manufacturing of various magic equipment, etc.
Now, the rate of losses on the front line has obviously exceeded the production rate of puppet empire soldiers, and the losses are already more than twice the production capacity.
Under this situation, even if the bombers from Elan Hill visit infrequently and all the puppets are produced and can be safely sent to the front line, it can no longer prevent the failure of the puppet empire.
What's more, now, four-fifths of the puppet empire's newly produced puppet soldiers are destroyed by Ailan Hill every month on their way to reinforce the front line...
The troops on the front line cannot be replenished and the number of puppet soldiers is insufficient, so we can only use high-level magicians and some Warcraft troops to block the hole.
The precious demonic snakes, giant dragons, and high-level magicians were all consumed bit by bit in such a bloody and high-intensity battle.
"Moreover, the opponent's reconnaissance plane seems to have different reconnaissance equipment! It can distinguish our camouflage. The camouflage we made with leaves and the like is getting worse and worse." The general saw the great demon Travish.
The instructor had no intention of interrupting his report, so he continued speaking forcefully.
Travish seemed to be freed from the data just now, and stretched out his hand to stop the general's report: "Stop! You just said... we lost 550,000 puppet soldiers in one month?"
"Yes, we lost 50,000 puppet soldiers near Kalamikos, about 120,000 at Ronschek, 90,000 at the Gushan defense line, and we lost 90,000 soldiers at the Gushan defense line between Ronscheck and Trier.
We lost 50,000 yuan, and the defense line between Gushan and Donghe lost more than 40,000 yuan." The general could only state the loss figures bravely.
About 350,000 puppet troops were annihilated by the Airan Hill ground troops on the front lines, and about 200,000 were left bombed. About 80,000 of them were annihilated on the front line by the air force, and the remaining 120,000 were not sent to the front line.
Those 120,000 new puppets were destroyed halfway.
"We worked overtime and desperately produced so many puppet soldiers. Now you tell me, we lost 550,000 in one month?" Travish muttered, and then looked at the other party: "Huh?
"
"This is... the data compiled by the front line... Mr. Grand Mage! I can't believe it... but this data should, should, should be true..." The general began to sweat on his forehead and stammered.
replied.
What he did not dare to say was that because the losses in areas such as Callan Mix, east of Trier, and north of the East River were relatively low, part of the defense line was abandoned.
If we hold on to these positions, the losses may be close to 700,000! Maybe, the front line will collapse due to the heavy losses.
"Our frontline can be maintained for two months at most. If within two months, we still can't come up with a way to defeat Eiland Hill... our puppet empire will really lose this war..." Although not
He was too willing, but the general still fulfilled his duty. He emphasized the current unfavorable situation to Travish word by word with difficulty.
Travish suppressed his anger and shock, and waved his hand: "No need to read further, just leave it here for me to see for myself... We can hold on as long as we can... We will definitely win!"
