1547 Night Attack on Amelia
... country is a small country, its strength is just that...
The only reason why it is well-known to people all over the world, or even written into world history, is not that it is outstanding in any aspect, or that there are some world-class artists in this country.
Or something else that is generally positive and can inspire positive comments from people.
People know it, and future children will know it in textbooks, because it ceded a piece of land to Gaevra at the end of World War I!
Some people call this "eternal shame"!
The symbol of their country's highest political power, the then prime minister, also stepped down directly because of this incident and became a criminal of the country.
To this day, there is still a bronze statue of him on the border.
Of course, this is definitely not meant as a compliment!
A bald guy kneels on the border, apologizing to the ceded territory!
If the children use "deep love" to describe their love for the motherland, then the people here use deep hatred to describe their hatred of Gaevra!
As a small country that is not very eye-catching, it is regarded as a subordinate country of Penjiao just because it has a lot of trade dealings with Penjiao.
This is just a fact deliberately fabricated by the Gefra people in order to find a reasonable excuse for plunder.
They didn't have such a close relationship, but after the war, they did!
At this time... the atmosphere among the domestic people is approaching a critical point.
In the past few months, the media has continuously reported how miserable the compatriots living on the ceded land are!
They were massacred and enslaved by the Gefra people. They had no freedom and no future!
Everyone wakes up every morning not sure whether they will be able to get up safely tomorrow.
All of this was caused by the Gefra people. Under the deliberate promotion of the local government, people's hatred towards Gefra has been accumulating.
And now, it's about to explode!
The Prime Minister looked at the people gathered in the square to demonstrate, with a hint of pride and a smile on his face.
As he turned around, in his office were several officers wearing Pengeo Army uniforms.
They are very elegant, whether it is their hair, clothes, or shiny leather shoes, they are all meticulous.
In fact, in this small country, not all groups hate the Gaevra people, there are also some surrender factions.
They were frightened. Gaevra could pull the fleet over and bombard them at any time. Their port was as if it was undefended in front of Gaevra's fleet!
For the Gevra people, it was just a day or a few days of shelling, and they left after emptying the shells.
But for people living here, their losses may take three to five years to make up for.
These people were frightened, and most of them were capitalists.
They like money and are willing to make war fortune, but they don't want cannonballs falling on their heads!
As the most developed area with the largest trade volume, the port has too many industries and warehouses.
In order to ensure their own interests, with the help of these capitalists, the capitulation faction began to gradually take shape and had a certain influence in domestic politics.
They call themselves "rationalists", but everyone says they are "capitulationists".
Now, as the conflict that broke out next door is processed and transmitted back, people are angry again.
According to rumors, a worker's fingers were chopped off because of some trivial matter. He wanted to resist the tyranny of the Gefra people, but was subsequently killed!
People stood up angrily to overthrow Gaevra's resistance and speak out for those compatriots who have died and are dying!
In such a social environment, the growing surrender faction was finally pinned down by the martial arts faction.
"Only the military can strengthen a country!"
"Even if we can't completely destroy our enemies, even if we can't win all wars!"
"We also want those people to feel the pain, feel the pain of being hurt, and feel the pain of a broken tooth!"
"Only in this way can we be respected!"
He smiled and walked to his chair, sat down, and signed an authorization form quickly.
Then he pushed the authorization letter to the center of the table, "I agree to authorize the military to launch military operations in the Amelia area. We want to take back Amelia!"
When the news from the Prime Minister's Office came out, the whole society was boiling, and some young people enthusiastically signed up to join the war!
What excites them most is that they also discovered Penteo's elite knights, the Spear of Sethis!
This army unit has a very long and glorious history, but don't think of it as a cavalry unit.
In today's era of motorization reform, it has long since transformed from a cavalry into an elite mechanic!
Pengeo and the Federation have one thing in common, that is, it has strong production capacity. The problems that have always troubled Gaevra are not a problem from the perspective of the Federation or Pengeo!
This force is equipped with some of the latest army equipment of the Pengeo Empire, with even more terrifying demolition capabilities and even more terrifying attack capabilities!
Valley food
The Pengeo Empire was not so kind as to take back their ceded land for this small country. In fact, this military assistance had not only the Pengeo Empire's own military strategic goals.
The most important thing is to carry out those new military equipment here!
The weather is getting warmer and the whole world is getting hotter!
While the Pengeo Empire condemned the Federation's invasion of Marillo, it sent troops to support...the country in retaking Amelia.
There was another series of diplomatic "greetings" from the Federation and the Pengeo Empire. Everyone was talking to themselves shamelessly, as if they didn't know what the other party was talking about!
In mid-May, the war in the Amelia region broke out!
This small country did not even take the initiative to declare war on Gaevra or the Governor of Amelia Province, but directly crossed the border with Penteo's army.
At six o'clock in the evening, it was already dark. It doesn't get dark that early in summer.
The Gefra Army on the border is conducting an unplanned patrol.
As anti-Ghafra sentiment began to spread in the region, similar situations emerged in cities closer to the border.
They ostracized, cursed, and even attacked Gefra and their property, and robbed them of their belongings.
Although Blackstone Security Company is back, it doesn't make the situation much better. At most, they just stop killing people indiscriminately!
In order to ensure the security on the border and detect some signs as early as possible, the border patrol team has now changed from the original two-hour frequency to the current thirty-minute frequency.
Just when these patrol cars were patrolling at night with their headlights on, they did not expect that a threat had arrived.
"Listen, what's the sound?" Someone was the first to notice something was wrong. He could hear something like...he couldn't tell.
It's like there are a lot of things moving fast, heavy, strong, like...
Suddenly the soldier's mind flashed back to a tractor show he had attended as a child!
At that exhibition, for him, various behemoth tractors roared past in front of him.
You can see that those tractors are not fast, but their power will definitely shock you!
Full of violent power!
It was like... He turned his head and looked at the wilderness in the distance. The next second, several fires suddenly lit up in the distance, and then there was a scream in his ears. Before he could react, several shells fell. Around the convoy!
The huge force lifted all the patrol cars into the air, and the shattered shrapnel was like the scythe of death, in less than a second.
The soldier's consciousness was frozen at the last second, and then there was eternal darkness!
The rapid assault troops sent information to the rear while continuing to advance forward. This was a consistent tactic of the Penteo people.
The small force can quickly understand the surrounding situation and provide a complete intelligence mechanism for the subsequent large force. If there are targets that need to be attacked, they can directly bombard them when the artillery arrives.
Not long after these tanks left, a larger number of mechanical troops passed here.
The soldiers on the trucks looked indifferently at the wreckage of the patrol cars that had been moved to the roadside, and the bodies that were torn into pieces by fragments.
They showed no emotion, no pity, and even some excitement.
For the Pengeo people, military merit is above all else!
It is higher than capital and higher than power!
Every two years, the Emperor of the Empire will receive veterans who have made outstanding achievements at the Empire's Birthday!
Will shake hands with them and have a cordial conversation!
Even after these veterans die, they will enter the Imperial Hall of Valor and continue to guard the glory of the empire in another world!
This is also the ultimate dream of every Pengeo person!
Compared with being an official, compared with power, it seems that military merit is what people should pursue!
After the swaying convoy passed quickly, the dust raised slowly fell again. At least for a short time, no one would realize that the Pengeo people had invaded!
They didn't declare war!
This was a surprise attack, or a shameless sneak attack, but...who cares?
Only the winner can write history. If the Pengeo Empire wins the final victory, then this is the lead in tactical strategy!
Less than fifty kilometers away from the border, there is a border city. In fact, this was not a so-called "border city". It was even far away from the border.
It was only after the Amelia region was ceded that it became a border city.
At this time, some people had gathered in the city. They tied red strips of cloth on their foreheads and on their arms, and someone silently distributed weapons to them.
Everyone's face has a look full of glorious expectations!
After everyone had received their weapons and ammunition, the leader also held a gun.
He glanced at his watch and then said, "At ten fifteen tonight, we will retake this place."
"When the time comes, you will come with me to control the power supply station first..."
