Chapter 760 Chapter 17.32 Power Game

3245 years. After the Windwhisper regime took a breather after Ver came to the rescue, it was still unable to solve the rebellion in Osima.

Even if Boma's intervention force solved the great uprising in the north, the rebel army in the south still pushed forcefully northward. It is impossible for Boma's regiment to be stationed indefinitely in the wind-whispering plain of Osima, a place that is undefeated.

Under this predicament, the Kingdom of Osima used all means to strengthen its ties with Ver.

The Ver politicians were also confused at this time. The establishment (noble faction) of the Palace of Mirrors, after the successful intervention of Boma, promised unlimited support to the Osima royal family.

At the end of 3245, in the last three months before Bomar's withdrawal, the Osima Royal Army began a military adventure and launched an attack on the Sky Iron Star, the force behind the rebel army. Trying to hold off Poma with a war so that the Vermilion Intervention Army would stay. (Italian Keng De San)

According to the newly formed scrawled parliament in the Osima Fenghuo regime, those "prestigious" political amateurs who rushed to the stage put forward many "new ideas" suggestions. Basically, the old politicians were limited by the agreed-upon rules. They made all the decisions they dared to make with their "anger-dominated brains".

Similar to the Internet public opinion politics in the 21st century, in order to achieve a certain seemingly effective effect, one directly follows the ideal trend to the maximum extent, and often completely offends one party without any room for relaxation. (It was common in Eastern Europe, East Asia, Japan, South Korea, and Australia at that time. It was the effect of such big countries colliding with the frontier.)

The unreliable suggestions of these talkers were originally not adopted. At least the establishment faction with a little bit of wisdom will despise the radical strategy of "big thunder, small rain, difficult to implement, and many troubles in the future".

However, the "weighing" within the Osimar political arena completely collapsed in this incident due to the inaction of the old aristocratic politics. Now the actual decision-makers within the Osimar Kingdom faction are military personnel with no administrative experience. Radical strategies that look tempting are just what these fools like.

Behind the scrawled parliament is actually a power pulling game between the military government, populism, and the royal power.

Those new politicians who came to power imagined that perhaps they could launch a military provocation against the Sky Iron Star to retain the troops stationed in Ver. Moreover, these new wavemakers in the political arena have a desire to "get rid of control" of the Kingdom's military that supported them in coming to power. In this way, it is more conducive for them to deal with multiple parties with the help of external forces. (Similar to the Han Dynasty Emperor Xian's clothes and edict to win over Liu Bei and join Cao Cao.)

It’s just that these Osimar politicians boast that their “professional understanding” of war is the same as the “frog” political commentators on an island in the 21st century.

These politicians used their military knowledge borrowed from Veran Anglo to gossip in the political arena: Even if a military conflict develops with the sky, it will evolve into a positional war. The battlefield is a steel and concrete crushing machine, allowing workers to crush the produced artillery shells. Transport them to the front lines via subway lines and fight them out.

In the capital of Fengyu King, politicians from poor families who have newly put on aristocratic clothes, in order to cover up their humble hearts, hastily use "higher people" decisions to cover up their inner uneasiness in the early stages of crossing over from class.

The daily work of the front between Osima and Iron Star is shelling. The shelling cannot kill many people, which prolongs the new changes in the international situation.

…But the old nobles of Osimar don’t know that times have changed now…

On the Iron Star's Western Front, the once continuous group of pillboxes had been bulldozed. It was converted into a railway transportation line.

Iron Star formed more strategic mobile forces for this purpose, and deployed more than a hundred land cruiser combat units 100 kilometers behind the line. Therefore, on December 20, 3245, the static defense forces on the eastern front of Osima stepped out of what they were accustomed to. The static defense line tried to attack the Iron Star Western Front, but what was the result? There couldn't have been a more failed offense.

Quotes from Enma: If you want to destroy an army, there is no better mode than "static defense".

The three major tasks of the army are effective marching, the protection of supplies during field operations, and the simultaneous entry of multiple arms into a certain area at any time under complex conditions for combat cooperation. None of these three static defense processes is required.

Guard clusters that deal with the military grassroots all year round: long-term fortress garrisoning will abolish all necessary capabilities of the army.

1: In the static defense system, the better the fortress, the more complete the internal railway track will be, and there will be no maneuverability in the field.

2: The storage of materials in the fortress is fixed, and they are consumed according to the list all year round, so there are no various strange backup backup plans in the field. In short, if the Osima Eastern Front Army now carries out During a mobile battle, the wheel of the vehicle broke down. The person in charge could not be found to replace the spare tire, so the vehicle had to be abandoned. Not to mention that during the march, the track was blown off and the engineering vehicle was dragged to the queue and quickly returned to the convoy. High-end operation.

The subsequent march of the Osima Eastern Front Fortress Corps slowly moved like ants moving.

3: There is no need to consider dynamic information confrontation in the daily operation of the fortress. Within the permanent fortifications, all kinds of wire equipment are complete. After being stationed for a long time and discipline became lax, there were not even "emergency drills". In the last war, Enma raided the city of Kaidi and cut off the telephone lines between the various fortresses. The Osima Kingdom Army had no backup lines, and its military quality was worrying. .

Not to mention that in more complex field operations, the difficulty of maintaining communication equipment increases exponentially.

Once a communication node is blinded by a team raid, it is possible to send a clear message in an emergency.

This is also true. After the Osima provocative military operation was launched, each corps did not even know what was going on one kilometer ahead of them. The result is that iron stars are randomly interspersed.

They even showed up and directly changed into their clothes, took their troops away from the main army, and then all surrendered in the encirclement.

…This is the last gamble of the nobles of Osimar, leaving the fate of the country to the gods…

Osima launched a military provocation on January 23, 3246. In the name of combating "smuggling", Osima crossed the border and launched artillery attacks on the Sky Iron Star, and then went to the border to cause destruction. This made Willy very angry,

In the subsequent diplomatic communication, Iron Star was arrogant and humiliated by Osima.

In order to show his "toughness", Osimar's new foreign affairs minister put forward a request during the meeting: "Let the sky be iron star, and all actions to support the Osimar rebels must stop." and listed a large number of demands. Stack up a list of "military supplies" (actually civilian tractors, diesel and other supplies). Even more outrageously, the so-called "trade compensation" was proposed, requiring Iron Star to hand over all illegal smuggling income in the past few years, equivalent to 1.5 billion gold coins, to Osima.

This is very similar to starting a relationship before breaking up, in order to quickly jump on another person's boat, in order to break off the old relationship. "

Wei Keng sighed with emotion: "The king of Chu sent people to unite, and in the future, the envoys will do it again." "Zhang Zi thinks that the few people will not unite?" He sent the warrior to meet the king of Qi. "

Translation: The King of Chu was deceived by Zhang Yi's promise of six hundred miles, and sent an envoy to sever diplomatic relations with Qi. However, when the envoy from Qi did not come, he sent another envoy to repeat the severance of diplomatic relations. After severing diplomatic relations, I waited for Zhang Yi. Seeing that Zhang Yi did not come, I asked: Does Zhang Yi think that the severance of diplomatic relations between the widow and Qi is not complete? So he sent warriors to scold the King of Qi.

After Mr. Wei read this ancient history, he later faced the news that Korea, a small country in Eastern Europe, suddenly popped up to offend the prosperous and developing East. It was not uncommon and strange.

Looking back, on the Wanlun Continent, Osima operated like this without waiting for the big powers in the 21st century to deal with it.

The Windwhisper Plain of Osima unilaterally blocked the eastern trade, causing considerable fluctuations in Iron Star's originally prosperous economic development. The previous failure to export revolution reduced Willy's leadership authority, but this time he continued to stab the knife, forcing Willy to sign a "special military operation."

... Enma: This is because he failed to make allowances, did not realize that the Osima incident would affect his own side, and lacked non-military options...

On January 30, with the mechanized troops of Iron Star, there was a sudden attack.

Osima was just pretending to be on the border, but the provocative troops were all in chaos under the gunfire. There were more than 200,000 troops and 15 land cruisers. It was wiped out in one fell swoop under several times the missile firepower.

Let's put it this way, it's like a crab jumping out of its shell and trying to sneak up on an unprotected bird, completely unaware of how soft it is.

On the evening of the 30th, Wei Keng, one of the soldiers, looked at the prisoners standing hundreds of acres on the forward position and couldn't laugh or cry. Why, why use "mu" to describe it, because these prisoners can't line up, they can only stand together in clusters according to each part of the static defense.

After some questioning, the Iron Star officers found out that this was the queue they used to prepare meals in the cafeteria.

Wei Keng: "Occupied the military establishment and raised a group of trash who are almost the fighting strength of the militia."

After a pause, Mr. Wei changed his mind, "Hey, if you were a military base for missile strikes, you would still have enough deterrence. No matter what."

As Osimar's royalist party's gamble of external provocation failed, Osimar's original iron defense line, which it thought was like toilet paper in a storm, was broken by the troops led by Minral.

...But Wei Keng didn't realize that there were also shortcomings in his own Iron Star. This shortcoming was those Junkers military nobles...

At the end of 45, the war between Osima and Iron Star was so dramatic.

Prior to this battle, outside observers on Osimar believed that the Iron Star would seize this loophole in the northern city of Cady. But little did they know, suddenly the middle part was directly penetrated by an iron star.

Minlar quickly outflanked and directly completed the siege network of the Osima Empire on the southern front, and annihilated the 160,000-strong "Gangluan Corps" on the southern front of the Osima Empire before February 4, 3246. , this is a day in Iron Star where all the old-school officers in the Sky Empire are proud, shouting to restore the Sky Empire.

Of course, what followed was the robbery of food from the rural areas by the old Imperial armies of the Iron Star Federation, which triggered protests in the southern uprising area of ​​Osimar. Because if you invade directly, it will be no different from the past Sky Empire era.

...The Diao Minwei in the Osima area are not used to "chauvinism"...

Iron Star's top decision-makers (mainly at Enma's request) did not continue the fight, began to restrain the troops, and compensated the southern agricultural areas according to the order. The Agricultural Youth Association in Iron Star also has the brains to supervise the frontline operations: looting is far less profitable than trade. Iron Star needs to arrange a market for the large industrial city in the east of Osimar.

Under the constraints of various left-wing forces within Iron Star, the imperial faction of those armies was suppressed.

Bess succeeded Minral, and he occupied these favorable terrains and formed a line of defence. Use three of the highlands as base points to establish a favorable forward military base.

At the same time, Willy of course signed an agreement with the leader of the rebel army in the south. The two sides redefined the boundaries based on natural rivers. Sky exchanged a piece of territory in the south with an outlet for the territory where Osimar's Kaidi City is located.

Generally speaking, in terms of area, Sky Iron Star has ceded more territory, but it has mastered the strategic advantage on the eastern front.

The most important thing is to create a model for reaching a comprehensive reconciliation on this bloody battle front. In the future, the two sides will dismantle the long fortress complex, and the economic and urban road planning of both sides will be synchronized.

Of course, this made the imperial faction soldiers in Iron Star clamor, feeling that this was inappropriate. (Minral did not speak directly in it, but he mobilized emotions)

These thoughts of the old empire in the sky are not limited to the empire: they do not understand why, as a strong party, they do not expand or even transfer some territory.

Wei Keng understood that this was God's purpose: to let all the hearts of change decay in the passage of time.

Iron Star cannot remain as it is now forever, so its progress in other uprisings on the mainland must be fast.

…Change is not a turn-based system. If the flames of emerging forces are not strong enough, the old forces will cover up the sparks with thick quilts…

In the second half of 3246, Iron Star ended the Osimar military operation and reorganized the Council.

After the Sky Iron Star began to evacuate in an orderly manner, a large number of instructors were left behind to establish the Osimar United Federation and began to guide the local Osimar Iron Star armed forces to reorganize.

As part of the uprising in the south, the native Wei Hao was a bystander: these instructors of Sky Iron Star had such an "arrogant" attitude, but they still did some practical things.

After nationalization, Osima's heavy industry began to restart. The Osimar Defense Force was rebuilt, and the mechanized force was also rebuilt, with a quite powerful land cruiser unit.

All imperial forces across the continent have turned their attention to Osimar.

Whether it is the largest constitutional empire, Anglo, or third-rate powers such as Cyrol, the aristocratic factions in these empires, just like how they guarded against the "co-consultation faction" of Verre, began to use "peace" disguise to "fight" with the radicals at the bottom. "Peace" is an attempt to take a small step back and eliminate the risk of riots.

The Iron Star movement in southern Osimar now advocates reform, which is far more restless than the "rational revolution" advocated by Ver. This resonates more with the mud-legged people (the lower class who have been locked up in educational resources by the upper class), but it makes those middle-class business class people who have suffered from ink feel uncomfortable.

For example, the Southern Austrian Tienong News said: All upper-class aristocratic culture must be buried in the soil, or a reward of 500 yuan may be received in a museum.

The "informed classes" of the city's mid-level businesses in Osimane called for an understanding to be reached.

Wei Keng: Whether the petty bourgeoisie has a broad vision is proportional to the amount of its assets. Those with extremely large assets are destined to be in the minority, so the bourgeoisie is destined to be short-sighted and weak.

Turning to the other side, Boma has quietly completed the operation of "going home for surgery".

Boma is not too nervous about the huge changes in Osima, because Sky Iron Star, as a "gendarme", forcibly defeated Osima, and now the "enlightened faction" replaced on the Wind Whispering Plain are almost all related to Ver. .

These "bourgeois" replaced by the Fengyu regime are actually closer to Ver.

...Wei Keng: Allies that are kidnapped by force are not firm. Sky Iron Star is so wrong in principle that military victory is not considered victory...

In February 3246 of the Fire Emblem Calendar, Poma had completed a military coup in the capital of Vers in heavy fog.

Soldiers wearing iron boots and steaming mechanical spiders rushed into the gorgeous meeting hall, arrested the indifferent parliamentary gentlemen in the Vernian Parliament, and threw them into prison for trial. The blame that these gentlemen had thrown away during several major defeats in the war with the Eastern Anglians was redistributed to them.

After Poma gained military and political power, he began to essentially dominate the entire Ver.

On the marble-patterned table, the situation around Verre is displayed, including Anglia to the west, Osima to the east, and Cyrol to the southeast. Now the focus is on Osimar.

Poma was angry at the rubbish diplomacy of the Communist Party. Osima's sudden declaration of war on Iron Star is undoubtedly a trick to Ver, who is currently fighting hard.

But after calming down, Boma looked at the mountainous map of Osima again. In the past, Ver was the exporter of the revolution. Wherever there is resistance to the imperial system in various places, the Versans support it with both hands.

For example, after the revolution in the Sky Empire, the Anglos denounced it as "chaotic and evil", while the Verrens, who pioneered the "consensus system", claimed that this was a positive and beautiful thing.

But when Iron Star began to export its own set of ideas, the upper-class politicians in Vern felt threatened. Oh, nominally they would not slap themselves in the face and withdraw their support for the "imperialist resistance to freedom", but in their words, They will claim that the Iron Star concept has been revised and is problematic.

Especially now, the Windwhisper Plain of Osima is already Ver's raw material supplier, and the Southern Corps is pushing forward step by step, essentially harming Ver's interests.

...Boma now claims to be a "renovation" faction, but he and Iron Star are not "comrades", but rivals vying for the right to speak...

When Boma was looking at the map, Orr walked in. At this time, he was impressed by Boma's leadership charm.

Orr was entrusted with an important task and entered the Western Front to fight against the Angles. He is now a level four hero. After he walked in and saluted Boma, Boma asked straight to the point: "What do you think of the rebels in the southern part of Osimar?"

Orr looked at the map of the south with confusion. Two years ago, he was sent by Iron Star to complete the great uprising in the north and cooperated with the southern rebels. Orr's impression of the Iron Star Peasant Youth League-style rebels in the southern hills was that their weapons were very backward. , need to accept leadership.

But before he had time to lead, he was defeated by Boma's intervention force. Now this rebel army has completed the structure of the southern weapons system and is able to launch more and more attacks on the imperial troops in the Wind Whispering Plains of Osima. Although his face was not red during the big battle, there was a scar in his heart.

When Orr finished his report, Boma nodded to him and asked him to leave temporarily.

Boma looked at the map of the continent with a pen. As a traveler, he had already made a judgment.

Boma: "In this battle for continental hegemony, there can only be one dominant player. So Iron Star must withdraw."

But fighting on the east and west fronts is the biggest problem. Ver is facing the powerful enemy Anglo in the west, and it is not suitable for him to be dragged into the war with Iron Star in the east. So~~~~he had a measure in mind.

…Poma is prepared to use diplomacy to pull another force into the trap…

Verne diplomats had "covert" but not-so-covert contacts with Ironstar about Ocema, contacts that were confided to the Angles by Verne double agents.

The Anglo are Osimar's traditional allies, and they have always been concerned about the changes in the situation in Osimar. If the Anglo diplomats are left idle, the troublemakers will think about "how to provoke conflicts between Ver and Iron Star."

Obviously Poma did not give the Anglo diplomats a chance to do nothing.

It happened that Bomar controlled the media at this time: Iron Star and Vern joined forces to divide Anglo's interests in Bohai.

Anglo diplomacy has always been "rational" in the past, but this rationality is based on the premise of "offshore". They can show the gentlemanly attitude of offshore balancing and put on white gloves to mediate. "But when it comes to them, they are like mad dogs.

This is because if a "catastrophic diplomatic failure" occurs in the Anglo Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and relevant business interests are affected, the Anglo people will launch an attack in parliament, and then take the blame on the Prime Minister, and the Foreign Minister will have to be overwhelmed. If this happens, It is easy for Anglo's top decision-makers to make mistakes on these "issues".

Poma's system provides the most "lucky" (speculative) solution.

Two months later, in the northernmost direction of the mainland, a naval and air force of Anger moved towards the northern port. A huge task force composed of six airships and sixteen battleships began a special operation in the Bohai area.

The airship looks fat and slow, but that's compared to an airplane. The speed of 80 to 90 kilometers per hour is almost twice as fast as that of a 32-knot high-speed battleship. Therefore, the fleet follows a straight line below, while the airship follows an S-shaped path in the sky.

The Anglo naval and air fleet arrived at the northern Yuzui Port again because of the current changes in the international situation.

In the past few months, the new government of Vers led by Bomar first dispatched troops to the south and defeated the border defense forces of Cyrol, forcing Cyrol and Vers to form a military alliance, and then peacefully Iron Star, the two sides discussed some "good" things together, including denying the legitimacy of "Sky Empire".

This made the Anglos very nervous. If Ver succeeds in unifying the entire continent, then Anglian will most likely be targeted.

Therefore, when General Ver's army intervened in the south, Anglian hurriedly came to the north of Osimar again, determined to establish leadership here.

...In the chaos on the mainland, Anglo is more frightened than Ver...

On the airship, as the helium in the cabin heats and expands, the ceiling is increased. Yunli looked at the sea below the airship. A long wake was clearly left on the sea.

The superstructure is like a battleship of a pagoda. Under the sunlight, it elongates its oblique reflection toward the north.

On the steel frame on the left side of the airship, aerial workers, with metal chains hanging around their waists and holding observation equipment in their hands, observed the sea ahead with circles of halo in front of their left eyes.

These observation arrays can look into the distance and also observe invisible objects in the surroundings.

The people driving the airship at this time were the people from Sherry's escort team back then. Ever since they were attacked by Ludis' stealth air assault team, causing the princess to fall, these members of the old guard had been wary of any suspicious air currents in the air.

As the groups of propeller reconnaissance planes on the airship were released from the hook locks, Yunli also wanted to fly her own plane for a lookout, but was stopped by the captain of the airship.

The captain asked Yunli very politely about the mission of aerial flight, and then asked for advice on repairing the aerial sextant.

In fact, as a captain, how could he not know this stuff? He just wanted to keep Yunli here.

The Anglo intervention in the northern section will be put aside for now.

…On that day, some people shouldered the honor of their family, while others began their own “free development”…

At this time, on the aerial platform on the iron felt fort, An Jiexin looked at the guys in the Air Force Training Corps who started rocket afterburners in the air and changed the wings to delta wings and did somersaults. During the dive, there was even a snapping sound ahead, and a cone-shaped wall of cloud appeared.

An Jiexin asked: "What is that guy's name?"

The instructor said: "Well, a student, um, a little madman, likes high speed very much."

An Jiexin smiled: "I like high speed too." - Her car relies on ground effect vehicles for attack.

Driving at high speed requires excellent knowledge of fluid mechanics concepts, otherwise turbulence will cause the aircraft to become unstable and crash when changing speed or turning.

At this time in the sky, the tail flap of the plane driven by Zheng Nian changed, and the blades popped out of the wings were controlling the air vortex, allowing the aircraft to remain stable in high difficulty.

...Wei Keng is born to dig holes, while some people are born to spread their wings...

In the aviation hall, An Jiexin saw Zheng Nian, and she was stunned when she saw that he was a twelve-year-old child.

But then, what made her more concerned was the identity of this child.

An Jiexin clicked on the information chain in the industrial concept field. Oh, this is an electronic plane in the ether world. Only heroes can understand such an information system. When Tiexing was established, the information survey of the public was unprecedented.

An Jiexin saw Zhengnian's identity, took a deep breath, shook her head and said to Zhengnian: "Military operations require obedience to orders. You are too lively. Read more books."

When An Jiexin turned and left, Zhengnian's originally high-spirited eyes showed a sense of loss, and then a flash of thought flashed through his mind.

Zhengnian, who was twelve years old in his lunar age, was a genius. He skipped grades to complete the full-time course. It was rare that he did not waste his energetic youth. Now that he entered the military base too early due to his "rising height", he had a broad vision and had his own unique views on the future military development of the mainland.
