The places that the attacking Ailan Hill troops passed by were basically in ruins. The Norma Empire was not a good communication line in the first place, but all of them were destroyed due to the attack of the Staff of the God.
The entire road was broken and cracked, making it almost impassable except for off-road vehicles. The engineers of Eiland Hill were working desperately to repair the road, so that they became the busiest force in this war.
There were more than thirty cities attacked by the Staff of the Gods, and most of these cities were damaged by more than one-third. Although the Staff of the Gods was a small model, its destructive power was not much worse than that of a nuclear bomb.
When we arrived at the hinterland of the Norma Empire, we could see a sense of desolation at the end of the world. The vegetation in the wilderness was swaying here and there, and the forests were destroyed. Beside the collapsed houses, those who were lucky enough to survive sat on the rocks in despair.
on the ground, looking at the Ailan Hill troops passing in front of him with numb eyes.
After the troops on the border were wiped out, the resistance of the Norma Empire completely lost its organization. Sneak attacks by small groups of troops occurred from time to time, but organized troops no longer existed.
On the cracked airport runway, there are still transport planes and passenger planes with damaged landing gears parked. These planes belong to Noma Airlines. At its peak, the company owned more than 230 planes of various types.
Like other magic empires, the Norma Empire had a long honeymoon period with the Elanthir Empire. The Norma Empire exported magic crystals and other minerals in exchange for a lot of equipment produced by Elanthir.
Therefore, there are actually many modern infrastructures and many valuable factories within the Norma Empire.
For example, the steel plant built with the aid of Alan Hill, which has been put into operation for more than a year by the Norma Empire, is quite impressive in scale - it has an annual steel production capacity of five million tons, which makes up for the loss of the Norma Empire Steel at that time.
Serious shortage of production.
Now, this factory, located in the northern part of the Norma Empire, which at that time symbolized the friendship between the two countries, was completely damaged and paralyzed by the vibration. It stood there quietly and no longer made any sound.
You know, just half a month ago, the chimneys here were still billowing thick smoke, and the factory equipment was still making noise due to work.
In the city not far to the north of the factory, the towering city walls have completely collapsed, and the ground has cracked due to the shaking. There are collapsed buildings everywhere. People cleaning up the ruins, until they saw the tank of Eiland Hill, also
There's no way to stop crying.
When the troops of the Airanthil Empire entered the strike range of the Staff of the Gods, the dust here had almost fallen back. Although the air was still not very fresh, at least it would not make people suffocate to death.
The locals, covered in dust, shed tears as they buried the bodies of their relatives. They rummaged through the ruins, each in tattered clothes, and their faces were so dark that it was impossible to see their expressions clearly.
They watched numbly as the tanks of the Elanthir Empire passed in front of them, and they watched numbly as the grenadiers of Elanthir passed in front of them, not even willing to make a sound.
These civilians who were lucky enough to survive just cried silently, carried things in their hands, and looked for the bodies of their relatives or friends.
It was as if the soul of this country had died the moment the rod of the gods began to attack.
It wasn't until the engineers from the Airan Hill Empire and the subsequent rescue teams that entered the Norma Empire appeared that these locals finally realized that this cruel war was over for them, and that Airan Hill was already a part of this land.
The new owner of the land.
"Why... why use such a terrible weapon... We didn't do anything wrong..." An old man leaned against a collapsed wall and shouted to the Airan Hill engineers who were helping to carry the stones.
There was a cry in his voice, and the engineers of Eiland Hill did not answer him. They were just ordered to come here to clean up the wreckage and then make all preparations for post-war reconstruction.
Two transport planes flew over the sky and dropped something as they passed through the city. The parachute opened quickly, like a small flower blooming in the sky.
For two consecutive days, these planes passed here and dropped the same thing. The local people knew that this was their happy moment...
In order to allow the local survivors to survive, Eiland Hill consciously began to put some living supplies into the affected marginal areas.
In the boxes under these parachutes, there are tents, instant noodles and mineral water, which can allow many people nearby to survive for a while.
As for whether anyone will rob it, whether someone will occupy it, or whether there will even be a firefight to strengthen the supplies, this is not what the Airanhill military considers.
The parachute descended slowly, and nearby survivors had gathered. They raised their heads and waited for the lucky airdrop box to get closer to the ground, their eyes full of anticipation.
"Why...why did you use such a terrible weapon? We didn't do anything wrong!" Beside the wall, the old man was still mumbling the same question over and over, but still no one answered him.
"Observe the laws of Elanshir, prohibiting killing, stealing, and molesting women..." An armored vehicle filled with loudspeakers bumped forward slowly in the ruins, passing by survivors who were dividing food and tents.
Several Airan Hill soldiers carrying weapons smoked while looking at the survivors who were dividing things. They didn't need to grab these things. After all, the various foods provided by the army were much more delicious than the instant noodles dropped by air.
.
Although they often complain that the energy food in the army is terrible, if they think about the pickled mustard and instant noodles they ate during the march and war, they will only scream more miserably.
Not far away, a bulldozer was tearing down some unusable walls. The city was being rebuilt on the ruins, and the rebuilt city had a brand new name, Gassen.
The iron ore mines here will be rebuilt, the steel production here will be expanded, everything here will be revived, and everyone alive will continue to live here happily.
"Why...why did you use such a terrifying weapon? We didn't do anything wrong!" Beside the wall, the old man was still mumbling the same question over and over again.
This time, someone answered him. It was an officer who happened to pass by. He stopped and looked at the old man: "Because, the Norma Empire is wrong! As Norma people, you can only endure the suffering."
