When the fleet of ten ocean-going cargo ships left the Great Ming Empire, it was as if a heavy bomb had been thrown into the already chaotic world. International public opinion was boiling over.
He couldn't understand the behavior of this eastern overlord. For these countries that had always had poor relations with each other, he didn't hesitate to take the huge risk of starting a war with another powerful country to cross the ocean to support them. It was said that they were even gathering an army to form an expedition fleet!
It was really necessary to do this, even though the Ming Dynasty officials claimed that this fleet was only used to evacuate the overseas Chinese stranded in the East Continent. However, who would believe that such a large-scale fleet was more than enough to accommodate hundreds of thousands of troops just to evacuate your insignificant overseas Chinese? Did they really think that they were fools?
Obviously, no country that could survive in this cruel world was a fool. Faced with Da Ming's blatant intention to make money from war, there were people who watched with cold eyes, gloated, and were envious and jealous…But no matter what the outside world thought, even if everyone knew what was on the ship, there was nothing they could do.
Because Da Ming had already declared the fleet's position, who would have the guts to seize it? Even the British side could only pinch their noses and let them go.
Although the current world had yet to produce international standards that could restrict the behavior of countries, and everyone did their own things, there were still some basic rules that had to be followed: For example, both parties at war could not hinder the evacuation activities of a third party, let alone a fleet that was under the banner of the Great Ming Dynasty, one of the two overlords of the world. Under such circumstances, no matter how arrogant the British were, they would not dare to act rashly. Otherwise, the next time they attacked, it would be as simple as a fleet. Instead, it would be the main force of the Ocean Fleet that had long been sharpening their blades and dreaming of avenging their previous humiliation.
The speculations of the outside world had nothing to do with Qi Ziang at this time. As a 28-year-old commandant, he was a young officer in the Yulin Army, the left division of the former army, and the commander of the first armored battalion. His future was limitless, so he was chosen to be the leader of this consultant team.
At this moment, he stood on the side of the ship and looked at the boundless sea. The sea was calm, and seagulls were constantly flying over the fleet or stopping on the mast, curiously looking at the huge fleet... Qi Ziang, who was enjoying the beautiful scenery, did not notice a figure walking quickly towards him!
"I've been looking for you for so long, so you're slacking off here! Commandant Qi!" The figure rushed over and handed him a telegram.""Here! This is a telegram from China."
The man was a little thin, and his fair and clean face was full of a smile. He was his good friend and assistant, Xu Zhenhua.
Qi Ziang looked at his bad friend helplessly and took the telegram. He complained,""Seriously, it's rare for me to be disturbed by you during my free time. I haven't had a good rest since I boarded the ship!”
"Who asked you to be the leader?!" Xu Zhenhua said, exasperated. Don't forget that when we were fighting for this position, you used all kinds of underhanded methods. Why are you backing out now?”
"I'm afraid? Dream on! I can't just complain!”As he spoke, he opened the document and read it. Suddenly, his expression changed."Not good. The British have launched an attack on the capital of the country today. The current situation is chaotic, but the General Staff believes that their frontline troops will not last long.”
"What? Why is Britain so fast? It seems that they want to defeat the main forces of the two countries before we arrive! " This isn't good. They might surrender as soon as our fleet arrives. If that happens, the plan made by the General Staff Department will be ruined.”
Qi Zi 'ang also smiled bitterly." Those foreigners shouldn't be so weak, right? They should be able to hold on for two months, right?"”
However, Xu Zhenhua did not have much hope. He shrugged and said disdainfully,"It's hard to say. Don't have too high expectations of these barbarians. They usually bully the weak and fear the strong. But now, they could only pray that they could hold on for a little longer!”
At the same time, it was late at night in the country on the other side of the earth. This country in the southern hemisphere had entered autumn.
La Plata Plain was the second largest plain in the entire Lower East Continent. It spanned Glass, Arabia, Brazil, and Ukraine, with 60% of its area located in Arabia. Under the illumination of the autumn moon, the beautiful scenery of the entire plain was enough to intoxicate any visitor.
However," Boom!"
The sound of the explosion broke all the silence, and then the artillery fire suddenly exploded on the position of the country. The soldiers who had been on high alert for the past few days quickly picked up the rifles around them and entered the battle.
The artillery fire lasted for a full 30 minutes before it stopped. After causing a large number of casualties in the Arab army's position, the ground began to tremble, and the hissing of high-power generators resounded in the surroundings.
For a moment, everyone in the Arab camp held their breaths. The experienced officers hurriedly berated after a short pause,"What are you idiots waiting for? The enemy tanks are coming.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire camp was in an uproar. There were people pushing cannons into the camp, moving artillery shells, preparing rocket launchers, and some even holding crosses to pray to God...
Rumble…
"Creak…"
The sound of the tanks moving was getting closer and closer. Just as the soldiers were about to be suffocated by the pressure…Finally, the ferocious barrels separated the night and the smoke, revealing the mighty steel body behind him.
The Conqueror tank was the latest main battle tank developed by Britain. It weighed 60 tons and was equipped with a 125mm rifled cannon.
This weapon was born at the beginning of the last century. In the past hundred years, it quickly became the main equipment for humans to fight on land. Countless lives had died under it. Now, it was laughing ferociously again, ready to reap the lives of humans like a god of death!
Boom! Ding!
A cannonball was fired and accurately hit the turret. However, it was unable to penetrate the thick slanted armor and could only helplessly bounce off with a green sound.
"1 o'clock ahead, muzzle 5 degrees, open fire, send them to God!”The commander quickly calculated the shooting elements and ordered the gunner.
Then, the reloading man nimbly picked up a heavy shell from the ammunition rack and stuffed it into the barrel. The gunner entered the data into the fire control computer and locked onto the target.
Boom!
With a loud bang, a brilliant firework appeared in front of the tank, along with various human parts. At this time, the other tanks opened fire one after another. Under the powerful firepower of the British armored forces, the Arab position was suppressed in just one confrontation. As the tanks moved forward and fired, the British infantry took the opportunity to quickly approach the camp under their cover.
In the face of this situation, the commander of the Arab army was helpless. As a small country, they had very little heavy equipment. The few remaining tanks were placed in the city for defense, which made it difficult for the soldiers in the field to use their flesh and blood to block the enemy's steel charge.
Boom! Crack!
Suddenly, a ball of flames exploded on one of the tank's tracks. The tank's tracks snapped, and the heavy beast stopped in its tracks. Then, several rockets flew toward the immobilized tank with a whistling sound.
"Clang!" With a muffled sound, the tank turned into a torch in a short period of time. Then, with a shocking explosion, the entire turret was lifted into the sky. However, before the first successful cannon position could celebrate, several shells smashed over and turned everything into ruins.
For a time, fierce battles were unfolding in various positions. However, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the defeat of the country was only a matter of time. Without the support of heavy weapons, they could not stop the enemy's attack at all. In the end, they could only watch as Britain slowly devoured their own territory!
At this moment, in the temporary command post in the rear, the liaison officer kept sending distress telegrams to the rear, and the commanders of the troops were anxiously discussing the battle situation. At this moment, a liaison officer barged into the conference room with a telegram and shouted,"" Sir, it's bad. The British Air Force has sent out a bomber to attack La Playard City. The paratroopers have dropped from the sky. The commander wants us to immediately transfer troops to support them.”
"What?" The commander took the telegram and read it. Is the commander crazy? If the troops were transferred, the front line would not be able to hold on.”
"Then we don't care about La Playard City anymore? Once the capital falls, we'll all be court-martialed.”
"So what? Even if we lose the front line, we still have to go to court. Moreover, were the remaining troops all good-for-nothings? Can't even deal with a few paratroopers?”
"Alright, stop arguing!" The person with the highest military rank said,""Report to the commander. The British are attacking fiercely. We are temporarily unable to transfer troops and let them think of a way.”
"Yes, sir." The liaison immediately went to the radio station to report.
Everyone in the command room fell silent as they watched the liaison leave. They stared at the sand table in front of them in a daze. Where would this war go? Would their country survive? Everyone felt uneasy.
