Iron Ship Man's Traveling Journey

Chapter 61 The Northern War II

EU, Novosibirsk, the capital of the Novosibirsk region.

Different from Irkutsk's status, Novosibirsk is the former Russian Empire period, the current Eastern Europe, Siberia and the Far East, can be called the top three bustling cities.

It can be said that Novosibirsk, with a population of more than 200 million, is also a relatively important city in the EU, and it is located not far from West Asia and Central Asia of the Star Sea Empire. In the past, it was used as a trade transit hub city. Linking the trade between the Far East Railway and the Zhonghua Federation, Novosibirsk can be said to be a city with very good economic strength.

It is a pity that the sudden arrival of the war directly destroyed the peaceful atmosphere of Novosibirsk.

Shhhhhhhhhh! ! !

With a sound of sharp whistling and explosions, terrifying fireballs erupted from the downtown area of ​​Novosibirsk, directly devouring many civilians and buildings around them.

In the sky, giant airships with a length of more than 500 meters are flying at an altitude of several thousand meters. These giant airships painted with sky camouflage are impressively one of the big killers in the world of "Red Alert". The sky monster Kirov airship produced by the Soviet Russian camp.

When more than a dozen Kirov airships and hundreds of Black Hawk fighters first appeared, the city of Novosibirsk was already ready for war. The large-caliber automatic anti-aircraft artillery positions that were put into production a year ago were rapidly firing towards the sky. Their efforts are really in vain: It is not impossible to shoot down the Black Hawk fighter with a large-caliber automatic anti-aircraft gun, but the probability is mostly the probability of a blind cat hitting a dead mouse. The Kirov airship seems clumsy but belongs to A flying tank with thick skin and thick special fibers is comparable to the frontal armor defense of a main battle tank, plus the targeted radio and radar interference capabilities of an airship, unless it happens to be hit by heavy missiles or heavy anti-aircraft guns multiple times Otherwise, these giant airships with exaggerated carrying capacity will drop heavy aerial bombs on the enemy's positions.

Now, the city of Novosibirsk has tasted the horror of Kirov airships. The automated anti-aircraft artillery positions and defensive positions were directly knocked down by Black Hawk fighters. Kirov airships directly showed the horror of being a big killer , the heavy aerial bombs dropped at random are all big guys weighing more than 100 kilograms. When they fall into the urban area of ​​Novosibirsk, they will directly destroy all buildings within a diameter of 300 meters. Buildings and personnel within [-] meters are effectively killed. scope.

In less than an hour, the entire city of Novosibirsk was completely changed beyond recognition. Huge potholes with a depth of more than 15 meters and a diameter of more than 100 meters spread all over the urban area, and the number of civilians and militia casualties exceeded 10. People, as a whole, are already tending to collapse!

"Attention all combat troops, the air force has already cleared most of the obstacles, and our goal is to take this city as soon as possible!" When the Kirov airship troops dropped all the aerial bombs and triumphantly chose to return, they had already passed the rapid Li Xingke, the vanguard commander among the army armored units that arrived by surprise, looked at the tragic situation in Novosibirsk sent by the reconnaissance plane in the command vehicle, sighed secretly but still resolutely gave the order.

As one of the rising stars of the Star Sea Empire's military, Li Xingke, who chose to serve the Empire, certainly sympathized with the devastated citizens of Novosibirsk, but he was still able to put himself in the right position, and gave orders to his subordinates with a cold face. Take the opportunity to capture the order of the city of Novosibirsk!

"Yes! General!" *N

In the communication channel, the commanders of all middle and lower levels took orders impressively, and the armored vanguard troops with a total of more than [-] scattered directly to attack.

Seeing the arrival of the armored forwards of the Star Sea Empire, the city of Novosibirsk, which is already overworked and injured, is in a state of chaos. The outer defense line that has not yet been built is only a small number of EU soldiers staying, surrounded by a large number of Kirov airships and hackers. In the urban area where the Eagle fighter planes washed the ground, there are still a large number of injured citizens and soldiers waiting to be dealt with, but at this time, they are facing the attack of the armored forces of the Star Sea Empire, which can be described as an extremely bad situation.

It has to be said that the Slavs who have been influenced by the harsh natural environment are much more tenacious than the EU soldiers in the plot of "Akito the Subjugated". The city of Novosibirsk is mostly Slavs, and the remaining defenders are still fighting tenaciously. resistance.

However, the commendable courage does not mean that the defenders can resist the armored troops with an incomplete lineup!

"Reinforcements! I want reinforcements! Otherwise, prepare to collect the corpses for us!!!"

In the outer city of Novosibirsk, a temporary regiment-level headquarters was built in front. The head of the lieutenant colonel of the EU watched the front line of defense collapse, picked up the communicator in his hand and roared loudly.

The commander of the lieutenant colonel was angry for a reason. He and his subordinates were hastily mobilized for combat readiness and placed in the city of Novosibirsk as a member of the garrison. However, now facing the raid of the vanguard armored forces of the Star Sea Empire, the EU soldiers who resisted tenaciously paid even more heavy casualties, and were already on the verge of collapse.

Seeing his subordinates spend their lives to stop the enemy's attack, it is strange that the head of the lieutenant colonel of the EU can be calm. He roared to the rear command with red eyes, demanding that the rear send reinforcements quickly!

"Commander Chekov, we are sending reinforcements. You must hold the current line of defense and prevent the enemy from breaking into the urban area..." To the roar of the lieutenant colonel, the headquarters of Novosibirsk City replied somewhat Perfunctory.

"I X￥%!"

Lieutenant Colonel Chekhov immediately exploded upon hearing the familiar answer he received when he reported to the headquarters ten minutes ago before the confrontation with the troops of the Star Sea Empire.

"Boom!!!"

Just when Commander Chekov smashed the communicator, panting heavily and suffering from a headache, a loud noise not far away made him and everyone in the regiment headquarters widen their eyes, and unconsciously focused all their attention on it. Put it outside the battle situation.

"Captain, the enemy has already broken through the line of defense..."

In less than a few seconds, a captain and staff officer saw the specific situation and shouted in horror.

Well, for an EU combat regiment of about 3000 people, one-third of the casualties is a level that will collapse at any time. It is already a contract to be able to fight with dozens of tanks, armored vehicles, and more than 200 exoskeleton infantry. Commander Kov's prestige was strong in the past, and the EU's folk customs in Siberia are relatively sturdy!

"...The regiment headquarters and logistics personnel immediately retreated to organize the next line of defense, and the guards went up with me to prevent the enemy from rushing to the urban area!" After less than a second of silence, Commander Chekhov Gritting his teeth, he gave the order.

"This?"

"Captain?!"

Hearing Commander Chekov's words, dozens of combat staff officers and orderlies in the regiment headquarters couldn't believe it.

Commander Chekov's order can be seen as a preparation to delay the enemy's attack speed with his own life, and he ordered the regiment headquarters and logistics troops to retreat to set up a defensive line... The city of Novosibirsk was blown up by the enemy's air force. In this way, retreating to the urban area and being able to organize a defense line is a hell of a thing. Even the general headquarters set up in the urban area is in a mess. Hundreds of people want to retreat and build a new line of defense against the enemy. Does the army's armored force want to die directly?

Those smart people have already understood that Commander Chekov is giving them a reasonable excuse to retreat, and with him, the commander who desperately resisted and gave the order to evacuate, the EU military police will not pursue the regiment headquarters. Human responsibility!

"Excuting an order!"

Regarding the gazes of the young regiment staff officers, orderlies and logistics personnel, Commander Chekov did not explain much, but said with a straight face.

Faced with the kindness of Commander Chekhov, a major staff officer took the lead in saluting, and everyone in the other regiment headquarters saluted silently. Then, except for the security forces at the regiment headquarters, the other personnel began to organize the evacuation as quickly as possible.

Commander Chekov did not hesitate much. He set an example by walking in the forefront with a gun, and rushed to the line of defense with a security force of less than a hundred people. After a brief exchange of fire, he was shot dead by an exoskeleton mechanical infantry. Then the defense line in this direction directly declared its collapse. Except for a few die-hards who died in battle, even the regiment headquarters and logistics personnel who had not retreated far directly raised their hands and surrendered.

The war in Novosibirsk did not change because of the heroic death of an EU regiment leader and his subordinates. The vanguard armored force under Commander Li Xingke took Novosibirsk completely at a small price.

At the same time, the Star Sea Empire's troops from West Asia and Central Asia launched a full-scale attack on several other important cities!

(Today's update is ~!)

Chapter 62

"Several important cities in the Far East have all been captured!"

"The Far Eastern Railway in Siberia has been cut off, important cities such as Irkutsk have been occupied, and the North Sea has returned to our control!"

"The city of Novosibirsk has been successfully captured. It is expected that the offensive to the Ural region can be carried out smoothly. The follow-up combat troops are already advancing rapidly and beginning to control the entire Novosibirsk region."

"The holy Britannia garrison navy in Hokkaido and Honshu Island in Japan has moved, but after our army's naval fleet and air force formation conducted routine patrols, their fleet did not conduct any assembly activities, and the intercepted communication information It shows that they haven't had the idea of ​​meddling."

"For the EU, the Supreme Council is already in chaos, but Eastern Europe and Central Europe have mobilized..."...

When the Star Sea Empire launched an all-out war in the north, and the EU was battered in just a few days, Liu Yuan was sitting on the sofa in his private study, listening to CC softly report the current battle situation and various key information.

Well, as far as Liu Yuan is concerned, he can of course accept the news and analyze it directly, but he who has already wiped out CC is naturally more willing to let the girl report the situation. Chatting with Saeko Shima and Saeko Nogami, she can spend a certain amount of time and energy understanding the current world situation, which is much better than her staying in the Forbidden City of Zhu and having nothing to do!

"It seems that Marshal Cao Yuanming is doing pretty well!"

After listening to CC's report, Liu Yuan lazily opened his eyes, one hand still wrapped around the girl's waist, and then made an evaluation of the current war.

Liu Yuan is not at all surprised by the smooth progress of the war in the north: it has only been more than a year since the Japanese war, and even the Holy Bretanian Empire, which has suffered the most, is having a headache about how to produce Research projects such as main battle tanks and improved "rockets" that can automatically chase targets, in addition to studying their own KMF to continue to improve. However, the EU, which has not experienced the pain of the skin, has not fully implemented the current new military projects. However, the soldiers in the Far East, Siberia and other places were still equipped with weapons and equipment that belonged to the previous list. Naturally, they were completely defeated when they encountered the attack of the Star Sea Empire.

In fact, Liu Yuan sees that there are still residents of the former Chinese Federation in the Far East and Siberia, and he is especially merciful to the cities in the Far East and Siberia. Otherwise, the city of Novosibirsk, where the Slavs have an absolute advantage, will directly Enjoying the wanton bombing of Kirov airships, civilian casualties are just a number in Liu Yuan's eyes.

In comparison, Liu Yuan is very satisfied with the current progress. The Far East has been completely taken down, and the essence of the North Sea and Siberia has also been captured. The next step is to continue to attack along the city of Novosibirsk!

"Marshal Cao has already reported the situation of the battle, he asked whether to continue to advance?"

Compared to Liu Yuan's confident attitude, CC, who doesn't really care much about the military, shook his head, and instead of questioning his partner's confidence, he asked directly.

"Well, the Central Asian side is continuing to attack, and advance the front to the Ural region!"

Hearing CC's question, Liu Yuan's eyes flickered a few times, and he made a decisive decision, and told CC: "At least, our soldiers should reach the Ural Mountains. If we can win the Ural Mountains If so, that would be the best thing…”

Facing Liu Yuan's words, CC was stunned for a moment before reacting, and nodded to show that he understood.

After hundreds of years, CC still understands the importance of the Ural Mountains. It can be said to be the natural dividing line of the Eurasian continent. The terrain is not particularly dangerous but it belongs to a very critical area. Who will control the EU or the Star Sea Empire? If the Ural Mountains are reached, they can launch an active offensive against the opponent, or rely on the Ural Mountains for defensive operations.

However, the Ural region and the Ural Mountains are already considered the core area of ​​Russia, and the main population belongs to the Slavs belonging to the EU. It is not difficult to win this area, but if you want to complete the rule, What is needed is not pure force.

In Liu Yuan's heart, apart from wanting to see if he could seize the Ural Mountains, he had other ideas:

[Now, it’s okay to eat this area, but if there is more, it will be difficult to digest in a short time...]

………………

Following Liu Yuan's order, the Star Sea Empire's offensive against the Far East and Siberia has undergone a very obvious change.

The Outer Northeast Asia region and the Vladivostok region in the Far East belong to the key areas that the Star Sea Empire will attack from this direction. After the capture of Sakhalin Island and the establishment of a temporary stronghold, the war in the Far East region will almost come to an end. One paragraph: Mainly in other places in the Far East, the big thing is that there are not too big towns or small cities, large tracts of primeval forests and no-man’s land. EU has no interest in spending a lot of money on development at all. Liu Yuan temporarily There is no idea of ​​investing in development, and the first goal is to stabilize the occupied area.

The situation in Siberia is similar. Apart from the fact that there are quite a few cities along the Far East Railway, the other scattered towns in Siberia can be counted with your fingers. Many capable people simply don’t want to stay here. In Siberia, what they yearn for is the bustling European region, rather than staying in a ghostly place where at most half a year of dry work will take half a year of cat winter. The army's occupation of the node cities of the railways has achieved the expected goal.

The Star Sea Empire's raid operation has sealed the victory by taking down the prosperous areas of the Far East and Siberia. The armies of the two sides quickly turned to clean up the local area. With the help of the previously collected intelligence and infiltrators, they directly began to clean up the internal hidden dangers. Clearing operations were carried out, and military control measures were carried out.

However, during Liu Yuan's order, the momentum of the attack on the Ural region did not stop. Through the army assembled to the city of Novosibirsk, it launched a swift and fierce offensive on the Ural region and the Ural Mountains without stopping.

However, when the Star Sea Empire arrived at the Ural Mountains in such a powerful way, EU and the Holy Britannian Empire couldn't sit still!

Chapter 63 Peace talks and results

"Your Excellency, I think both of us should cease fighting immediately, otherwise the EU will mobilize at all costs and fight the Star Sea Empire to the end!" A few days later, Henry, the EU's ambassador to the Star Sea Empire's wai jiao office, looked pale. Looking at the opposite official excitedly, he expressed his tough attitude aggressively.

"That's right, for the sake of world peace, the Star Sea Empire should stop the war with the EU..."

Not only did Ambassador Henry, the plenipotentiary representative of the EU, arrive, but also the ambassador of the Holy Britannian Empire, obviously putting on a posture of pulling aside.

Don't get me wrong, the relationship between the Holy Britannian Empire and the EU is not so good. The previous enmity between the two sides was quite deep. Excluding the fact that the EU and the Holy Britannian Empire joined forces during the World War, other Sometimes the two sides regard each other as opponents, and if it weren't for the Atlantic Ocean, they might have started fighting long ago.

However, it is impossible for the Holy Britannian Empire to watch the EU fall. The Star Sea Empire's sudden war against the EU has caught people off guard. What makes them even more chilling is that in less than ten days, the EU fell Losing the Far East and Siberia, the army of the Star Sea Empire has even reached the Ural Mountains directly. Judging from the posture, it is likely to penetrate the Ural Mountains in one go and directly enter the Eastern European region of the EU.

The curly-haired Emperor Charles is certainly delegating some power, but he understands that the EU cannot be beaten too badly by the Star Sea Empire. On the contrary, intervening in the war between the EU and the Star Sea Empire at this time will allow the EU to retain more vitality to deal with the Star Sea Empire!

"You two, it is possible to cease fighting. What is the price you need to pay?"

Facing the two ambassadors of the EU and the Holy Britannian Empire, the head of the wai jiao department of the Star Sea Empire asked calmly.

? !

Is the Star Sea Empire really planning to cease fighting now? ! !

Hearing the words of the person in charge of the wai jiao department of the Star Sea Empire, Ambassador Henry and the ambassador of the Holy Bretanian Empire were taken aback.

Unlike the restless EU that has lost a large piece of land, the current momentum of the Star Sea Empire is sweeping, and it has captured the Far East and Siberia (occupied all important cities and populated areas), and even the Ural region is also occupied by the Star Sea Empire. For the most part, if the Supreme Council of the EU hadn't been effective enough to let the forces mobilized from the Eastern European region stick to the Ural Mountains, the army of the Star Sea Empire might have penetrated the Ural Mountains and broke into the Eastern European region.

The situation in the Star Sea Empire is very good, how could they agree to a truce now?

The two ambassadors of the EU and the Holy Britannian Empire couldn't help muttering in their hearts, but they couldn't give up this rare opportunity!

"Your Excellency, it was the Xinghai Empire who launched the attack on its own initiative. You should immediately stop the current march and withdraw from the territory you occupy!" Ambassador Henry was stunned for a moment before reacting to the words of the person in charge of the Wai Jiao Department, and withdrew He looked into the eyes of the Holy Britannian Empire Ambassador, and said to him in a dignified manner.

As for the regions of Siberia and the Far East, which were previously the territories of the Chinese Federation seized by the Russian Empire and the EU, they were directly and selectively ignored by Ambassador Henry!

"Ambassador Henry, are you kidding me?"

Regarding Ambassador Henry's words, if the person in charge hadn't cultivated enough energy, he might have laughed out loud, looked at Ambassador Henry with a slightly sarcastic look, and said in a very direct tone: "If you are a member of the EU's Supreme Council If everyone thinks this way, I think we don't need to negotiate, and continue to use force to decide who is the winner of the war!"

"Ahem, Foreign Minister Li, I think Ambassador Henry is just a little impatient. What are the negotiating conditions that the Star Sea Empire wants?"

At this time, the ambassador of the Holy Bretanian Empire coughed a few times, temporarily resolving the stalemate, and tactfully tested the bottom line of the Star Sea Empire.

Compared with the already defeated EU side, the Holy Bretanian Empire is actually more concerned. Is the Star Sea Empire planning to fight here? The mainland has even reached Europe... The Holy Britannian Empire has to think carefully about whether to abandon its previous suspicions and join forces with the EU to jointly fight against the overly powerful Star Sea Empire.

Of course, the idea of ​​the ambassador of the Holy Britannian Empire was only hidden in his heart. The order he received did not allow him to form an alliance with the EU on behalf of the Holy Britannian Empire, but only favored helping the EU!

"It's very simple. The EU admits to transferring the Ural Mountains, Siberia and the Far East to the Star Sea Empire, and pays 1000 billion star coins as war reparations. This time the war can end..." Foreign Minister Li saw the Holy Britta What the ambassador of the Nia Empire did, but he didn't mind offering his own price after receiving the order from His Majesty the Emperor, and the lion's mouth was not inferior to Ambassador Henry.

"This is impossible!!!"

Hearing what Foreign Minister Li said, Ambassador Henry almost jumped up, his face flushed and he shouted loudly.

joke!If Ambassador Henry is really stupid enough to agree to these harsh terms, the EU's Supreme Council will never agree, and the people of the EU will even dip Ambassador Henry's family in sauce and eat them raw.

In fact, it is impossible for Ambassador Henry's scope of authority to allow him to directly agree to these harsh terms. At the top of his head, he will inform the EU's Supreme Council of these conditions, but it does not prevent him from jumping out to make a gesture first, and then After telling these conditions to the EU's Supreme Council, members of the Provincial Supreme Council took their anger out on him, and Ambassador Henry had no idea of ​​being a scapegoat.

Regarding Ambassador Henry's performance, Foreign Minister Li and the ambassador of the Holy Britannian Empire were indifferent. They naturally knew that Ambassador Henry could not be the master, but the other party's performance really wanted to use it to get rid of the scapegoat. It is the inevitable task of ambassador wai jiao to lower the negotiation conditions.

After several efforts, Ambassador Henry passed the negotiation conditions back to the EU and then back again. After more than a dozen negotiations with the waijiao department of the Star Sea Empire, it was considered that a term that both parties could barely accept was reached!

……

"Your Majesty, these are the terms of the armistice agreement we negotiated this time!"

Several days later, the person in charge of the Wai Jiao Department entered the Forbidden City of Zhu, respectfully presented the results of their negotiation to Liu Yuan who was sitting there.

"Well, an armistice agreement has been reached..."

Looking at the truce agreement sent by CC, Liu Yuan glanced at the simple truce clauses and nodded his head to express his approval.

That's right, what the EU and the Star Sea Empire reached in the end was not a peace agreement, it was just the simplest truce agreement. In addition to the EU acquiescing that the Star Sea Empire occupied the current occupied area, the Star Sea Empire stopped the pace of attacking the Ural Mountains. any other terms.

The EU side naturally did not feel that they had lost the war. They felt that they were caught off guard and were preparing for revenge. In addition, no member of the Supreme Council of the EU proposed a formal peace agreement. By default, the current occupied area of ​​​​the Star Sea Empire is already Bottom line, if you want to pay compensation or formally cede the territory, don't think too much about it. Moreover, the Holy Bretanian Empire is constantly pulling sideways. The ultimate effort of Foreign Minister Li and the negotiating team is for the two sides to cease fighting according to the current occupied area.

As far as Liu Yuan is concerned, he doesn't mind reaching an armistice agreement. Anyway, he has occupied so many places in the EU in one go. The most important thing is to swallow and digest it first. It is unrealistic to swallow the EU in one go!

"... Then, follow this armistice agreement!"

After thinking carefully for a few seconds, Liu Yuan still felt that he would accept it as soon as it was good, and directly issued an order to Foreign Minister Li.

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

(Ahem, it’s a little late for the New Year’s dinner today O__O)

"Long live!"

"Long live the Empire! Long live His Majesty the Emperor!!!"
