The spring of 1030 soon returned. In the north of Saint Soc, the road that turned the slurry due to the melting of spring snow began to become dry and solid.

While there was still a slight internal friction in the Hagia Sok Empire, the war suddenly broke out.

On June 22, 1030, the tracks from the north began to roll towards the south.

Although the Hagia Sok Empire had received signs of the upcoming attack by the Hela people, it provided support to the military defense line led by the Grand Princess Longya in the north. Three elite divisions arrived at the northern base, the defense systems around the fortress were repaired, and various military supplies such as ammunition and food were supplemented.

However, the scale and quality of the Hela people's offensive exceeded everyone's expectations, with 600,000 troops and 3,000 mechanical vehicles participating in the attack.

There are two types of armored vehicles for the attack of the Hela people. The first is the tank imitated by the Kinder in the celestial tower. It is small in size and only has the armor only blocked bullets. This small chariot with internal combustion power was equipped with a cluster by the general of the Hela people and is now cooperating with the attack of the cavalry cluster.

The other type is a large tank powered by steam engines. There are a total of 240 such tanks, carrying a five-meter cannon body and a two-fifty-mm caliber. These thirty-ton self-propelled compost howitzers follow the infantry at a speed of 20 kilometers per hour.

The scene that the trainer saw in the sky was: smoke columns emitted from vertical exhaust pipes on the earth, on the chariots, and vertically upward, like rows of beacons and wolf smoke, forming a flowing steel cluster on the ground.

The Dragon Scale Armored Brigade is the title of four elite armored knights in the hands of the Grand Duke of Dragon Ya. From early morning to 6 am on the 23rd, the performance of this armored knight brigade in the encounter No. 23 was worthy of the title of elite troops.

Relying on the advantages of pre-built anti-armored trenches and night vision magic, they blocked the early Hela people's Sixteenth, Eighteenth and Forty-ninth Armored Brigades head-on.

At night, with the repeated fire of anti-tank guns, the Dragon Scale Armored Knights destroyed 124 iron tanks in four hours, with minor losses on their own.

The commander of the Dragon Scale Armored Brigade was the nephew of the Grand Duke, and the aimer was in charge of this battle.

He used the four-meter-deep tank trench that had been dug in advance to have a slope on one side and a vertical ground. The bipedal mecha walked down the slope and leaned against the trench, leaving only one head exposed on the surface.

The light mechanized troops that the Hela people rushed to the night were at a disadvantage when shooting. In the dark, anti-tank guns on both sides pulled out clusters of light in the dark, while the front armored front of the Hela people's light tracked armored vehicles were insufficient and were repeatedly destroyed.

The most fragile feet of the bipedal mecha are completely protected in the trenches, and the bent feet can make the bipedal mecha squat immediately after being beaten. The squat speed is faster than the liquid suspension of the main battle tank in the 21st century. Just one head may be hit by an anti-tank shell. After a night, the inclined head of the bipedal mecha encountered a lot of jumps, but it did not suffer actual losses.

Five hundred meters ahead of the trench is a piece of metal wreckage.

This kind of confrontation is like a hero unit harvesting soldiers. Mechanical units are expensive, but this war has proved that the people who operate equipment and the battlefield commander can exert the advantages of equipment several times. There are a large number of non-professional people who operate mechanical equipment.

On the morning of June 23, the Hela people completed the interweaving of weak parts of the northern front of St. Sok. After the interweaving, the infantry group followed up and cut the first line of defense that Longya Duke operated in the north into two halves.

The mechanized marching speed represented by the track is faster than most troops. The commander of the Mechanized Legion of the Hela people took advantage of the mechanized Legion and attacked the small town of Hesla where only the infantry group was stationed.

The soldiers in this town had never seen dozens of armored vehicles charging head-on. They used their rifles in their hands to strafuse the front of the armored vehicles. Seeing the bullets popping up on the hard armor, the steel monster was unharmed and the rotating turret was rotated, the troops' courage was 70% spared.

When the shells were seen storm, they only rubbed off the sandbags on the surface of the armored vehicles, Saint Sok's soldiers began to turn around and run away in the face of the approaching armored vehicles.

This fearful action has nothing to do with the "Is the St. Sok soldiers a native of the country?" This is the instinctive fear of human carbon-based organisms facing machinery that exceeds the biological limit.

Modern people look at the large trucks that are constantly racing on the highway, and they also have instinctive fears of "wanting to stay away".

Modern civilians are usually seen in photos, but when they encounter armored vehicles at full speed, they will be scared and turn around and run away, while the remaining one will be limp and unable to move.

‘Discipline’, ‘Faith’, ‘Anti-Armor Tactic Training’ Saint Sok soldiers were extremely lacking, just like most civilians in the twenty-first century.

The Dragon-horn Armored Knights in the north approached Hesra Town with the firepower support of twenty-seven Kirov airships. However, the Dragon-horn Armored Knights failed to achieve the brilliant results of the Dragon-scale Armored Brigade.

The person who commanded the Longjiao Armored Brigade was the son of the Grand Duke of Longya. His profession was a genuine general, at the age of 37. His Excellency of the General possessed the most elite equipment in the Northern Legion, but his tactical concepts were not updated to the present.

He believed that the firepower of the Kirov airship in the air was too small. In the fields outside Hesra's town, he ordered the armored troops to attack head-on with traditional tactics.

That is, after the artillery carried out a short fire suppression, the bipedal mechas were arranged in lines with only twenty meters apart.

When the artillery fire was suppressed, rows of two-legged steel giant beasts were like moving city walls, approaching the battlefield filled with smoke. The echo of metal footsteps and the ground collision will make the soldiers feel like a huge robot array is moving forward.

Two hundred and twenty years ago, there were records of thirty bipedal mechas marching in line to defeat a division. Now, this tactic is now behind the times.

Seeing this tactic, the commander of the Hela people immediately ordered the light tank cluster at hand to quickly maneuver to the rear of the Dragon-horn Armored Knight Brigade.

Here is a introduction to the tactics of the 21st century armored synthesis brigade:

The armored synthetic brigade is a coordinated battle between various vehicles. First, a row of tanks serve as vanguards, and a self-propelled anti-aircraft gun dozens of meters away from behind to prevent enemy armed helicopters from riding the face, and then followed by self-propelled artillery as an ad-range output. On both sides are armed helicopters to prevent the opponent from circling back.

But what would happen if there was only one row of tanks attacking head-on without other troops? The African black uncle's pickup truck made Colonel Kat's tank group kneel very realistically.

The direct heir of the Dragon Ya family obviously did not understand the application of the armored corps. Although he had twenty-seven Kirov airships in his hands to carry out firepower support on the flanks, he did not transfer these airships in time.

When the cavalry unit on the flank of the bipedal mecha encountered the Hela people's roundabout crawler light chariot, it was defeated by heavy machine guns on the mechanical vehicle within four minutes.

At 1:40 noon, the Hela People Light Tank Group successfully divided the connection between the Dragon-horn Armored Knight Brigade and the subsequent infantry.

The front of the knee of the bipedal mecha is not fragile. The bent angle of the knee can allow a large amount of baffle armor to be attached to the front, and there is no problem with the defense machine gun. What is really fragile is the joint hole behind, and no armor can be installed here. Once installed, the curved structure will be stuck.

The light tank group that surrounded the back fired with a machine gun. These bipedal machines were hit by large-caliber bullets and fell staggeringly.

At 2:10 pm, the Dragon-horned Armored Knight Brigade under the Grand Duke of Dragon Ya was destroyed, and successfully evacuated under the protection of his knights and the bombing cover of Kirov airships.

However, on the strategic map, a huge hole was revealed in the defense line run by the Longya Grand Duke. Starting from this protrusion, the Hela people began to detour to both sides, and encircled the rear of the defense line after the Saint Sok defense line was cut off.

As the core territory of the Dragon Tooth family, Red Dragon Fortress has a defense system accumulated over hundreds of years.

Five hundred years ago, the Dragon Ya family had not yet surrendered to Saint Sok, and the name of this fortress was still the Ziyan Defense Line. Well, this name is not poetic, because purple wolf smoke frequently appears.

Two hundred and seventy years ago, Ziyan Fortress was besieged by 200,000 Hela people, but finally rescued the siege after defending for twenty days.

What we suffer here today is far better than that of the day. The horrific scenes of mechanized war hit the hearts of everyone on the defense line.

The most violent sledgehammers of the Hela Legion hit people's hearts are the mechanical mortars five kilometers away from the fortress defense line.

These steam-powered crawlers drove behind back slope obstacles such as earth slope buildings and raised a five-meter-high gun barrel.

As the flames ejected in the cannon barrel, a hundred kilograms of heavy artillery shells leaped eight kilometers and hit the gully positions of the Longya Fortress. The explosives blew up rings of shock waves. The shock waves of the shells expanded hundreds of meters. The dust raised overwhelmed everything, and a large number of firearm fragments and human limb fragments splashed in the fire.

Forty artillery trucks poured more than 200 heavy artillery shells into the position in just one hour, smashing down all suspicious firepower bases on the position.

During the shelling, the vicinity of Longya Fort became blurred in the smoke and dust. After the shelling stopped, seven or eight thousand people, Haila people shouted, "Wow! Wow!". When the infantry group charged, the shouts surged like a tide.

At this time, on the smoke-filled position of St. Sok, the pickup car rushed to the front of the position with eight-barrel rocket launchers. With the sound of "swoosh swishing", the group of rockets was flying in the sky.

When the rocket group arrived two hundred meters above the Hela infantry cluster, it suddenly exploded. The Haila soldiers in gray uniforms fell down in pieces. The momentum of the charge was suddenly curbed.

After these pickup trucks were finished, they started the engine and left the battlefield immediately. For the Grand Duke of Longya, these mechanical vehicles are now extremely valuable motor firepower in his hands and cannot tolerate any loss.

On June 25, the Saint Soks and the Hela people fought an extremely tragic bloody battle around the Red Dragon Fortress. Both the offensive and defensive parties invested a large amount of troops into this flesh-and-blood mill.

Modern troops commanders must use some special methods to make the troops accept such casualties.

The army commanders of both sides used heavy machine guns to suppress deserters and distributed banned drugs to the soldiers fighting on the front line to enhance their energy and courage pills, which are standard for earth.

The troops on both sides had their eyes red. In the trench, on the edge of the barbed wire, soldiers holding bayonets stabbing each other with red eyes, which could scare the wildest beasts to become weak.

After opening a message, the telegrapher quickly took the translated message and came to the Grand Duke Longya.

The grandfather drew the telegram and read it quickly.

He slapped the telegram on the table and cursed: "Everything is tight, every aspect is tight. He asked me to draw troops to focus on defense, which was simply fart."

The grand duke pointed to the telegrapher and said, "Call back to me. The enemy has at least 400,000 troops. Within four hours, I couldn't see reinforcements. I retreated to the south bank. My Longya family is worthy of Saint Sok."

At this time, a soldier ran in outside, and the captain's face was covered with blood and dust. He saluted the Grand Duke and said quickly: "General, the Claw Division has lost more than half of it. The brothers there hope can retreat first and slow down."

The brothers this captain mentioned were not cannon fodder but officers.

The cannon fodders only need to increase the dosage of military drugs, let the knights use nerve stimulation techniques to squeeze the cannon fodder's potential. The war has reached the present, and whether the cannon fodders survived is a fool or disabled person, it is not considered by the empire. But now, the meat grinder on the front line has gradually made the officers unable to bear it.

When the Lord Longya heard this, he seemed to have made a decision. He looked up and said to the messenger: "Let the children of the Claw Division hold on for another two hours."

The Grand Duke of Longya, who walked out of the bunker, looked up at the golden sunset in the west, frowned, and sighed. He ordered the knights beside him: "Notify the Black Sea Fleet and prepare to cover the army's retreat."

Although the frontline war was fierce, the territory of the Gun Yan family was still very peaceful at this time, and the military factories were operating at full speed. The city even became a little more prosperous due to the war.

But after No. 25, when the Gun Flame family received information that the northern defense line was forced to be compressed, the entire Gun Flame family's upper class began to become anxious.

At nine o'clock on the 25th, Binghe took a train to the northwest of the family territory. After Binghe started the field, he looked at the war in the north.

Binghe can clearly see the foggy and smoke battlefield that appears three hundred kilometers away. The slight flash points on the battlefield are the explosion points of heavy artillery shells.

After putting away the field, Binghe walked into the carriage. The knights of the Saint-Sauk royal family welcomed them.

Binghe looked at the knight, took a deep breath, and asked, "Knight Slot, does His Majesty the Emperor give me the order to support the northern war situation?"

The headed knight saluted Binghe and said, "Mr. Crown, His Majesty the Emperor and the Grand Duke are discussing the war on the front line of the empire. The results of the discussion will be told to you."

Binghe held back his anger and asked further: "What is the battle on the front line? Does Your Majesty know now?"

The knight replied respectfully: "Your Majesty is in control of the situation in the empire."

Binghe was so happy to show the Knights: "I saw the Hela people's heavy artillery almost blowing up the Red Dragon Castle. Are you sure everyone in the imperial capital knows it?"

The knight whispered: "Please be careful not to be impatient, the empire has long anticipated the invasion of the Hela people, and everything is well prepared."

After hearing this clear rejection.

The anger in Bingxin reached its peak. Although Bingxin, who is in power, has begun to try to control his emotions consciously in recent years, he has never been able to completely achieve the loss of emotions.

After suppressing his anger, a helpless smile appeared on Binghe's face and murmured: "I understand, Your Majesty the Emperor is worried about me. For a naughty child like me, Your Majesty wants to strictly discipline me!"

Without the organization of the soldiers and knights, the strongest fortress could not be supported at this time.

Seeing this, the knight immediately persuaded Binghe: "Mr. Cang, don't think too much. Your Majesty just trusts the Lord Longya to ensure peace in the north."

The knight bit the word when he said the word "trust". The knight's meaning is: "Your Majesty, now I want to hit the local sect of Longya, which is not aimed at Binghe at all."

When Binghe heard the knight's explanation, he sneered: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, but he is just a loss of lips and teeth. The Gun Flame Family still knows it."

Binghe did not accept the statement that the knights explained that "the royal family hit the northern military vassal states."

Because once the north falls into war, the prototype of the bourgeois alliance created by Binghe in the north will disappear. It is obvious that the royal family is not only trying to hit the dragon teeth, but also the plan to further tie the gun flames.

Finance is the bourgeois social order. The so-called financial leverage power is so powerful, but it cannot escape the fact that financial leverage requires a solid support point. This support point is military power. If military power cannot protect the order of bulk trade, the so-called financial power is a mirror.
