The road to national restoration that began at the end of the century

In the end, Cash left his family and completely chose the military as his future.

But... after all these years, the Tang family is still unwilling to admit that they once had such an eldest son, let alone the fact that Cash later married a commoner girl and gave birth to an heir.

no way.

Everything is the result of the habits formed by tradition and the inertial thinking derived from it.

If we really have to go back to the roots, the Tang family used to have a samurai family with seven consecutive generations of male members killed in battle, with as many as 100 martyrs.

But later, with the development of science and technology, the Tang family gradually transformed into the civil servant family it is today.

In short, the Tang family who forgot about tradition and accused Cash were just a bunch of idiots in Riku's opinion.

Of course, the sound of artillery fire outside was getting louder and louder. Although Riku was only responsible for guarding the regeneration room and ensuring that with the power support of the power generator windbox, it could transform all kinds of junk and even corpses sent by other soldiers guarding the fortress into various Small arms defender.

But he had inexplicable confidence in Cash.

Even though he had almost no verbal communication with Cash.

"Your Excellency Captain, our mechas are being teleported here by the witches."

"Send out the soldiers, I don't believe they use light weapons... Wait! This is a valley, and... hiss... where is the center of the valley?"

"A large mountaintop lake with a water depth of less than four meters. Our drinking water used to flow down the valley. Therefore, they had the opportunity to poison our drinking water."

"Well... follow my orders and airdrop the mechas into the lake between them."

"ah?"

"Um?"

"yes!"

Even though the purple-skinned orcs who were walking in front as scapegoats and pioneers had long been beaten to a pulp by these Rimai people, Lie didn't have any worries.

Because he firmly believes that the mecha developed by his Akitsu Empire, that is, the large humanoid steel mecha that provides magical energy shield through nanotechnology, will never let him down.

Especially this batch of mechas called Ghost Kings, which are powerful war machines that no Japanese and Mai people have been able to successfully blow up so far.

Even in this battle, the Japanese and Mai people used a projectile hook to drag away the bodies of the wild orcs and the black-haired kobolds walking in front, which made him quite confused.

but……

In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and machinations are meaningless.

However, what Lie didn't know was that a large number of Japanese and Mai people who had prepared mines had already guessed his tactics. The defenders armed with short machine guns or what people more accustomed to call small machine guns were naturally ready.

Cash: "Their mecha soldiers should be here, right?"

Therefore, just as Cash inferred, when a green magic teleportation ring appeared on the lake, the soldier in charge of the remote control pressed the detonation switch without hesitation.

Beep! boom!

At the moment when three giant mechas with a height of 15 meters appeared from the teleportation ring, the huge waves generated by the explosion of mines made it impossible for the Ghost King mecha to activate its own weapons to attack, and was even killed. The powerful shock wave knocked him back. Then, one after another, the shells from the recoilless cannon naturally released powerful armor-piercing power on the mecha at the moment when the huge wave knocked it down.

Sure enough, there are still big flaws.

Compared with Lie Man thinking about the scene of the mecha soldiers showing their prowess, Riku felt sad for the pig-headed magicians of the Akitsu Empire.

It's not that these magicians are not good at it, but there is something wrong with their spellcasting.

There was too much movement.

Even people who don't know what's going on will immediately find a safe place to hide just by hearing the low whine produced by the teleportation circle.

Therefore, in front of a large number of cannonballs that could even be described as massive, the three mechas known as Ghost Kings knelt down on the lake, with flames that seemed to be electronic sparks emitting from their bodies.

As a result, here at Lie, he quickly received the news that three mecha soldiers were ambushed, and the mecha pilot cursed him before he died.

Lie: "They... ah... ask those black men to speed up our advance! They don't have many soldiers to fight us on the front line!"

Adjutant: "Yes."

no way.

Looking at the black-haired kobolds who were afraid and looked back secretly from time to time, Lie Na asked the war team to prepare to make sure that the black-haired kobolds knew what they were going to do immediately.

boom!

Even though a cannonball flew from the opponent, the body of the black-haired kobold was thrown into the sky like tatters.

one. A group, a bunch.

This is how the number of corpses on the battlefield increases. But except for the pilots of the mecha, Lie had no death figures that were obviously unacceptable to him.

In short, after the bodies of the black-haired kobolds became one ladder after another, the pig-headed men finally saw a semi-underground fortress that they felt was difficult to deal with, and a trench system like a spider web.

The more mountainous the environment, the terrain is rugged and bushy, if Lie wants to kill the fortress with the lake on the top of the mountain behind it, and control the fresh water resources of a nearby peninsula and completely capture this important strategic location, he has to completely capture it. Prepare more mechas to attack the city.

And they are mechs that can fly in the sky.

In response, Lie temporarily established a frontline base camp at the foot of the mountain, waiting for subsequent assistance.

Although this would probably give the garrison in the fortress more time to rest, he was very sure.

Sooner or later the Japanese in the fortress will run out of ammunition and food.

So, while Lie was preparing to establish a frontline base, one of the three destroyed mechas was asked by Cash to dismantle it and use it for the manufacturing of weapons and equipment in the regeneration room.

Cash: "If it could make more heavy weapons..."

Riku: "Major, you don't put all your hopes on it, do you?"

Kash: "No matter how hard it is, we still have a big baby here who can let them know what it means to retreat when faced with difficulties."

He said so, but Cash, who came after receiving the order, did not show a confident expression.

So much so that even Riku, a "silent man" who usually didn't speak much and was so reticent that his subordinates responded with the simplest and most concise sentences possible, finally couldn't help but worry.

Obviously, the goal of the counterattack, firmly controlling the southern area of ​​Apo Island, is not as easy to achieve as everyone imagined.

What's more, the sea control and air control in the waters southwest of Fort Bondi have not been completely won.

Therefore, in such an embarrassing situation, air superiority naturally became a major concern for Bourne.

Senagu: "Bourne, you are too hasty."

Bourne: "I...I just thought that they would have no time to send a copy of Ariko over in a short period of time..."

Senagou: "But you have to provide more heavy weapons, even naval guns or missile support. Otherwise, Major Cash will not be able to bear it."

Bourne: "Kash has some confidence in this regard. As long as the pig-headed man stays at the foot of the mountain, some friends will come over to help Cash at night."

Senagu: "Huh?"

As Bourne, who was chatting with Senagou in the Ministry of Defense office, said, Cash's plan was not to fight the pig-headed man to the death in broad daylight.

Using the power of nature to eliminate your opponent is an efficient way to better reduce your own casualties. After all, it is June now, and June in the Crurod Empire is a period of intense summer and sea breeze.

There is something here. If the power of the sun is stronger and hotter, what will happen to the sea?

The answer is simple, a strong typhoon.

Fierce winds and violent rainstorms... what do they mean?

from the destructive power of nature.

At this time the question comes back, how do you want nature to help you? What should you do?

Of course, it is necessary to create the force that can promote the typhoon phenomenon, or the opportunity to trigger it.

Therefore, in Bourne's safe, a piece of information that cannot be disclosed is being formally completed by a submarine in a practical form.

If this battle can really succeed, then the pig-headed people of the Akijin Empire will have a good taste of what failure means...
