Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

Chapter 379: last struggle

How far has modern warfare developed?

The development to war itself is a luxury and expensive operation.

So expensive that a small country is not even qualified to start a war.

It is so expensive that the gap between big and small countries is doomed to be impossible to equalize.

If Kant had no real feelings about these things before, but after he personally participated in the war, he realized first-hand why air supremacy in modern warfare is so important.

This is not a real-time strategy game. The air force is not a yin ratio used to contain, steal home and ride a face. It is not a crispy skin that is driven around by anti-aircraft vehicles. It is the key force that determines the war. It is the ruler of the battlefield and the Destroyer of units.

When the sky is in the hands of the enemy's modern air force, it means that the entire war is on the verge of defeat, which means that all units, logistics departments, important hubs and even everything are under the enemy's arbitrary firepower.

Under the rapid attack of two or three Machs at every turn, interception, confrontation and escape are meaningless.

Under the guidance of Archduke Goethe, Kant and Horus joined the Danfeng Lucerne counterattack.

The elite troops assembled by Goethe launched a battle to retake the gap in the city wall.

They have tried to counterattack several times before, but after losing the advantage of the city wall, Goethe's army is no longer the opponent of the elves. The will to fight, the elves are not inferior at all, failure is inevitable.

But now, the tide has turned.

The Goethe soldiers who were ready for the **** battle were stunned to find that the battle had become so easy.

What greeted them was no longer a neat formation of elves, no longer a rain of arrows covering blows like a waterfall, no longer a tricky and efficient spell bombardment.

Because before they came into contact with the enemy, their guardian angels had already swooped down from the sky with dragon roars, spitting out light like thunder and lightning, setting off large swaths of dust and fire in the enemy's army, blood spurted out, broken The limbs flew, and the elf soldiers fell like cut wheat.

By the time these brave Goethe soldiers roared and charged, the elves' counterattack had become extremely weak and scattered, and the soldiers guarding their homes gathered together, cut the gaping line of defense like a sharp blade, and planted Goethe's flag again. The city wall, like a broken bamboo, is victorious.

As if in a dream.

Because before this, several counterattacks have ended in failure. The brave Goethe soldiers are like waves hitting the reef. Although they are fearless and go forward bravely, they finally smash themselves and retreat helplessly - and now, Everything is different.

The invincible Mu Yuexiong division has become a slow-moving fifth-rate army.

The array is not neat, there is no arrow support, and there is no spell strike.

What caused all this was the man who appeared above the sky of Danfeng Lucerne.

Goethe's flag fluttered in the air, and the silver guardian wings passed by at a low altitude, making the flag screeching loudly. Even the most calm and reserved noble officers gave out unforgettable cheers, and the alchemy weapon shook its iron wings in response, and then Roaring back to the sky, under the grateful and fanatical gaze of the soldiers, he continued to guard the sky of Danfeng Lucerne.

This is the last lost city wall.

This means that Goethe has regained all control of the city and drove the elf army out of Danfeng Lucerne. In fact, all the attacks of the expeditionary army have been stopped, because even the elite of the world's most powerful army cannot come from the first. The attack continued under the frenzy of firepower of the sixth generation fighters.

So far, Danfeng Lucerne's critical disadvantage has been equalized.

"They will never forget you or today, father."

Such a conversation took place in the rapidly climbing fighter plane.

Kant smiled: "This honor belongs to you and me, and I will let them know."

"No, it's all yours, father."

Horus said: "My role is only a weapon."

"The reason for appearing here stems from your help and compassion for Goethe."

"The weapons and bombs of the Destruction Spirit come from your efforts and actions in Africa."

"The reason why I obtained Tacitus and copied the top armed forces of France and the United States is because of the will to stay in Comora and protect those innocents. Father, we have been stained with blood along the way, through death, killing and grief, and finally appeared here, stopped the attack of the otherworldly hegemony, and saved this dying country..."

It said solemnly: "This endless honor and victory should belong to you alone, father, and I am honored to be involved in all this, whether in another world or in Africa, every kind choice finally led to today's victory and results, Everything we did, all the blood and tears, was not in vain after all."

The surrounding scenery was rapidly retreating, the fighter jet flew around the sky, the fuselage swayed slightly, and Kant leaned back slightly. The G-force brought by the supersonic maneuver of Horus would not make him feel uncomfortable, but would make him quieter. Peaceful, he breathed calmly, and had not rested for a long time.

But now is not the time to rest.

The war is not over yet.

The brilliance of the spell rose from the city of Danfeng Lucerne and blasted towards the elf army outside the city.

This is the first time that Danfeng Lucerne's caster troops have launched a superior attack since the war broke out again.

Previously they could only passively intercept and defend against Elf's ranged spells.

Now, with air dominance, you can do whatever you want.

At the same time, the voice of the Grand Duke sounded in the communicator.

"Your Excellency Kant, no amount of words of thanks and praise are meaningless. Please allow me to face the most crucial question pragmatically - how do you decide the direction of this war?"

There was a hint of helplessness and embarrassment in his voice.

Kant's heart was sharp and he replied calmly: "Your Excellency the Grand Duke, I have no personal grudges with the elves. All support operations are based on Goethe's interests. I guess, with Goethe's national strength, it is no longer able to withstand a full-scale war with the elves, right? ? We're going to end it."

The Grand Duke was obviously relieved, and there was relief and gratitude in his tone.

"It's very nice of you to think so."

Kant looked down at the elf army formation below, and suffered successive blows. Even the unparalleled army in the world showed a trace of restlessness and unease. These elves must be at a loss about their future and ending at this moment, because their fate has not been fixed. In your own hands.

"If Your Excellency the Archduke is willing, order to stop the attack, and then notify the elf expeditionary force to surrender unconditionally to Goethe immediately, otherwise, I will immediately launch a mass projection attack, and then attack the elven capital, military center, commercial center, large port, etc. The target launches an all-out attack."

He said calmly: "Tell the commander of the expeditionary force whether to stop the war at this moment or let the war spread to the whole world, I am waiting for his choice."

Something similar seems to have been said not too long ago.

Genie, keep repeating the same mistakes.

"We can't stop him."

The sky is fully controlled by the enemy, and the headquarters is no longer safe. In the temporary command post, Sylvan Keller's eyes were red and he said with gritted teeth.

Extreme shame.

Oneself even began to be hit by Goethe's spells.

However, the mages of the expeditionary army have been unable to counterattack, and even dare not intercept.

Because of interception or counterattack, it will reveal the position of one's own position.

Then there will be a long-range blow from the sky.

A single attack can destroy an entire group of mages.

You can't defend yourself, you can't evade, and all means are ineffective.

You can't even see the trajectory of the attack.

Based on the same reason, the arrow formation and the magic tool troops are also useless. They are even more vulnerable than the mage group. As long as Kant thinks, they can be easily destroyed.

The war system that the elves relied on to run rampant in the world was completely defeated in the face of new enemies.

This war, such a situation, is unprecedented.

Where did such an enemy come from?

One person leaves an entire army helpless and can only be beaten passively.

There must be a response, there must be a counterattack.

"And he can't stop us."

In the face of new enemies and new tactics, there is always a **** price to pay. Only in this way can we summarize experience and improve tactics. This is the case with all armies, and the elves are no exception as a powerful army in the world.

It's just that they learn their lessons and respond much faster and more accurately.

So it is the world powerhouse.

"High speed, great power, an unstoppable giant alchemy bomb."

Sylvan Keller's voice was low and hoarse, like a wounded wolf howling.

"The number of carrying is limited and needs to be replenished. The replenishment method is unknown, but the number must be limited! If the number of alchemy bombs of that kind of power were infinite, then he would have ruled the whole world long ago!"

Lord Xiguang's face is grim: "Our army is not an opponent, no matter how strong and powerful the array is, it will be easily torn apart by him, but that is because we are statically fighting against the dynamic, and we are defending and waiting for the attack. Endure his wide-area attack—his attacks are all wide-area! Unable to control the range and power of the blow, at least I know, he dare not throw that kind of alchemy bomb into Danfeng Lucerne City!"

"A large-scale alchemy weapon, dealing with scattered single high-combat units, the efficiency must be greatly reduced!"

"Then we'll do it."

"Convening the death squad of officers, gathering all the top elite combat power of the expeditionary force, rushing into Danfeng Lucerne, using enemy troops, buildings and civilians as cover, to launch a raid on members of the Teldaril family."

"To capture them alive, we must capture them alive."

"And then with Kant..."

The commander spit out the word slowly: "Reconciliation."

The staff and officers gathered here, and the generals who listened in with the short-distance communicator, were silent.

Negotiate.

This word seems to carry a heavy burden.

And it's a great shame.

The Dusk Moon Dynasty used force to frighten the world. Its military strength is strong and invincible. It has always only fought the enemy to humiliate and seek peace. When will it be our own turn to initiate peace?

And that's not the most embarrassing thing.

The most embarrassing thing is that Kant raised his hand to destroy five chapters in Valentine, so the elves sent envoys to propose peace talks, but they betrayed their promise in the middle and attacked again.

Then he was beaten by Kant, and he wanted to make peace.

Not to mention how arrogant the elves are and regard honor as their life, even an ordinary small human country can't afford to lose this person. It is conceivable that if this matter spreads, it will inevitably become the laughing stock of the world, and it will be difficult for elves to wash away for hundreds of years. Shame and taint, become the biggest villain and buffoon of Kant's legendary victory.

Such shame, such responsibility, such consequences.

Who will bear the burden? Who can carry it?

"At least, we're going to get a fig leaf."

Peace and surrender are two completely different concepts.

The latter is a total disgrace.

And the former, with at least a fig leaf, and even a bit of operation, can turn into a victory without victory.

At this point, Lord Xiguang didn't want to cover up, and his words became straightforward.

There was silence in the communicator, and the staff did not speak.

Launched the beheading operation again, gathered the elite strength and top powerhouses of the entire army, broke into Danfeng Lucerne under the cover of the army, and captured important members of Tedariel.

This plan sounds beautiful and practical.

Kant's attack is indeed large-scale and powerful, so it must not be used in Danfeng Lucerne City. Once one's own sharp knife troops are mixed with Goethe's army, civilians, and even civilians, then that terrifying alchemy weapon can't do anything. effect.

One's own military superiority will unfold again.

However, what is the cost.

The price is that the army of hundreds of thousands of elves outside the city will become a living target for Kant to vent his anger, and it will even evolve into a competition between the two sides. Troops capture Teldaril members first - which means many warriors will die.

even.

The forbidden spell cast outside Valentine City may also reappear.

War has always been a painful choice.

"It's up to me to make these decisions, and take all the responsibilities," Sylvan Keller said. "Honor is higher than life. We are fighting for the Dusk Moon Dynasty. We must not be timid and humble to the enemy and beg for mercy, nor can we Submissive to the strength and intimidation of the enemy... We must let Kant know that the elves standing on the top of the continent have never relied on the power of weapons and magic."

After the silence, I agreed sentence by sentence and voted one by one.

For honor.

For Twilight.

for the dignity of the country.

For the glory of soldiers.

It's just that in this sacred and tragic atmosphere, one of the most central and critical issues was ignored by the officers, nobles and high elves present, intentionally or unintentionally.

In theory, the decapitation unit that sneaks in secretly and raids at high speed has the highest survival rate.

Because it is the essence of the entire army, because it brings together the top powerhouses and elites of the entire expeditionary army, it is difficult for Goethe to resist and can reach the target position at the fastest speed.

As long as he broke into the city, Kant could not carry out a powerful attack, and the survival rate was greatly increased.

Even more so than outside the city.

So here comes the question.

As the essence of the army, with exquisite combat skills and brilliant spell cultivation, the elite soldiers who can be called the strong in the army, of course, all have excellent bloodlines, wealthy families, rich books, and deep accumulation. The high elves who can enter the noble school for training.

He has a good pedigree, many resources, and deep social relations. He can enter higher education institutions for further studies, so he is very strong.

They were selected for the beheading unit by their strength and took on the most important task, and of course they could survive.

right.

As for the thousands of ordinary soldiers outside the city, may the Queen and the gods remember their sacrifices.

All of this is for the glory of the evening moon and the dignity of the Royal Army. Every soldier should fight to the death in his post, and then pray for the mercy of fate.

Who can survive depends entirely on the arrangements of the gods.

At this time, Danfeng Lucerne also issued an order for the unconditional surrender of the Elf Expeditionary Force. Sylvan Keller was not angry but happy, just in vain.

Anyway, it has been perfidious once, and it doesn't matter a second time.

It is impossible to surrender.

The glory of a lifetime cannot be dusted here.

Oh shit.

Never surrender.

Sylvan Keller's eyes were red, like a wolf king in a desperate situation.

Oh shit.

If I surrender, I will take full responsibility, the guys in the council, it's too late to be happy, they will put all the guilt on me! Like that idiot in Thrandron!

It's not my fault at all!

It was the parliament that ordered me to attack! It was the Council that gave me the air force and the magic tool! It is the decision of the parliament, then let the parliament bear the consequences! Can't use my status, honor, merit and family to bear these! Anyway, it's all dead, so why not gamble!

As for whether the army outside the city will die under Kant's bombing or even the forbidden spell.

As for whether the elf homeland will lead to Kant's retaliatory attack.

—If my actions fail, what does all this have to do with me!

Lord Xiguang's eyes flashed fiercely.

If you win, you can get a fig leaf, you can fool this matter, save most of the high elves, you will get gratitude from them and their family, even if you are held accountable, you will not lose everything, at most a few days off. In this year, there is still a chance for a comeback, and the family will not be overly implicated.

So why not do it.

Status, honor, fame, everything, cannot be lost.

I spent two hundred and thirty-four years in the position of brigadier general before I killed a boss and was promoted. I have to do it for at least another two hundred years. How can I give this position to a subordinate! He has to endure another two hundred years!

Sylvan Keller made up his mind.

While pretending to send messengers, secretly mobilizing elite officers.

The deployment of the backbone of officers from the entire army will make the combat effectiveness of each department plummet, but now, who cares about that, the conventional combat force has no meaning.

Secretly sneak into Danfeng Lucerne and attack Teddariel to seize the last chance.

Or, just die together.
