Blackstone Code - Chapter 1740
Although the victory transfer was successfully transferred in the end, it also sacrificed too many people.
Refuse to complete the statistics, in the last few days of entering the mountain, about 64,000 soldiers fell outside the mountain.
Over 1,110 combat vehicles of all kinds were destroyed, 479 planes were shot down, and more than a billion federal sols were lost!
In particular, the foreign mercenaries, almost all of them were killed, and these people had signed a high-value contract with the Guevra government before participating in the war.
If they died in the war, the Guevra government was required to pay at least 13,500 frau pensions to their designated account.
This part alone has more than 500 million fees!
Then there are their own soldiers who died in action. The lives of those soldiers are actually not worth much, and six thousand more can be solved.
Of course, this is still a huge number, when it becomes more numerous!
The damage to all kinds of ordnance, not including the used ammunition, the price of this strategic shift is too heavy!
When the news came back to the island of Gavra, the people of the island were the first to be unable to restrain their anger!
Because too many people died, this time the Ministry of War also killed more than 10,000 people and nearly 20,000 people. If the foreign mercenary corps had not been standing in front of the most dangerous, the death toll of the Army would have skyrocketed!
The Federal Army also lost some people, less than 2,000.
The Gefra people have no right to ask them to sacrifice. They assisted the Gefra people in their victory transfer and were the first to leave the battlefield, so the casualties were minimal.
In fact, the real outbreak of casualties occurred in the final evacuation stage.
When the commander-in-chief gave the order to withdraw to the mountain, the soldiers who were still resisting Penggio suddenly gave up their positions and quickly retreated.
This immediately allowed the Pengios to seize the opportunity and pursued them all the way.
Even if the Gefra people have a certain amount of air dominance, there is still no way to recover from the situation where the ground has completely collapsed and fled!
In the process of chasing and killing all the way, the death toll has skyrocketed!
From the beginning of the war to the present, the death toll of the Gafra army has exceeded 71,000, and this failure directly pushed this number to the special number that is about to surpass 100,000!
This does not include the people from the foreign mercenary legion, if they counted them, they would have already exceeded 100,000.
That is to say, the more than 90,000 army soldiers of the island who died in action finally triggered the already extremely sensitive and tense society in Gevra!
Gafra has a small population. They say they have a population of 10 million, but in fact the federal government thinks they are only between 8 million and 9 million.
Even if they really had a population of 10 million, and nearly 100,000 people died, or 1% of the total population, the impact on the entire society would be huge!
Coupled with rumors that the war will continue for three to five years, and the plan just put forward by the Prime Minister to cheer up the Imperial Army, the people began to panic!
They don’t want to die anymore, they don’t want their relatives to go to battle and be judged by fate!
The reform of the whole country and the whole society is still in progress. His Excellency the Prime Minister personally signed the document to abolish the privileges of the nobles, which greatly released the power in the hands of the people.
This also led to the birth of something new in Gevra, such as the bottom-up parade caused by dissatisfaction with the policy and the leader!
On the third day after entering the mountain, Gafra ushered in the largest parade in history.
Many families walked on the main roads of various cities with black and white photos of their children, and they called for peace and separation from war!
At the same time, some people also tried to put forward the argument that “the prime minister should be responsible for the 100,000 people who died”.
Official statistics are less than 100,000 people, but private statistics may include foreign mercenary groups as well.
And some of them immigrated by joining the military, and their families should also be included in this statistic.
Looking at it this way, 100,000 people have died!
This number greatly shocked the local people of Gavra. This is a terrible disaster that Gavra has never experienced since its birth until today!
People don’t accept these!
When a group of people start escaping reality, they will look for some reason, such as “it’s all because the Prime Minister has changed our system, the glory of the imperial family no longer guides us” and so on!
Behind these arguments there must be some nobles, big nobles, or even the royal family.
They finally found an opportunity to attack the Prime Minister!
The wave of impeachment of the Prime Minister is brewing and taking shape!
The prime minister, who was in the middle of the eye of the storm, was not as pessimistic and furious as people had guessed.
He looked relaxed.
Although tens of thousands of people died, more people moved into the mountains, and now they can use the mountainous area, which is inconvenient to travel, to curb Penggio’s continued advancement!
At the same time, the island’s fleet has also begun to mobilize, and the Pengios are likely to try to cross the mountains directly by sea and land, so it is very important to block the sea.
The work of the fleet is not complicated, and they do not need to do anything that is too difficult to do, as long as they can keep the Pengios from crossing the sea easily.
A land-based air force will help them coordinate their defense, and their own sea fort will be launched at the end of the month…
It’s all actually good news, although the final cut hurts a bit and the strategy goes from trying a counter-attack to a full-on defense.
But at least there will be no more casualties in the future!
As far as the current situation is concerned, His Excellency the Prime Minister is still very satisfied. The next main task is to cheer for the Federation!
Yes, cheerleaders!
If the federation can win, Gefra, one of the members of the World Development Committee, can naturally sit at the negotiating table and make demands.
Not only can they get back all the Amelia, they may even go further—
Your Excellency the Prime Minister had anticipated that the Commonwealth would intervene in this matter, ostensibly giving Gavra a better place, but in fact throwing him into a strategic rush.
At that time, Gevra will become a nail in the eyes of the Pengio military group, and there will be a lot of follow-up things!
But, it’s better than failing.
As for the criticism of him from the outside world, the Prime Minister actually doesn’t care much.
As long as most of the great nobles are on their side, no amount of rioting will make any difference.
The reform of Gafra’s national ruling system does not mean that it will take effect immediately after he has signed a series of documents!
It will take a while. First of all, we have to wait for the vested interests to enjoy their bonus period, and then we can really change bit by bit!
Before that, the status of the nobility was still unshakable!
In the following period of time, several fierce battles broke out on the battlefield of Amelia. The Pongio military group tried to use the advantage of numbers to enter the mountains to clear the remnants of Gafra.
The ideal is good, but the reality is not so good!
It is difficult to travel in the mountains, and the artillery is not easy to bring in, which also leads to a one-sided situation on the battlefield.
Pure infantry to fight the side with fortifications and heavy weapons is simply to die!
In some areas, three or five machine guns can hold the entire mountain pass!
This also makes the Pengios realize that if they want to completely kick the Gefras out, they must first gain air supremacy!
Only when they have air supremacy can they regain control of the war zone!
In mid-December, the launching ceremony of the sea fort, originally scheduled for the end of November to the beginning of December, was slightly delayed due to some minor problems.
Mr. Truman, as Federal President, was invited by the Navy to participate in the launching ceremony.
In addition to him, there are many celebrities and the like. This is the first sea fortress of the Federation, and it is also the Federation Navy’s high hopes!
Well, the above tone and mood is the content of the manuscript.
In fact, the navy is not particularly looking forward to it, because the island chain plan is too perfect. It can take one or two hours at most, or as little as ten minutes, and the planes taking off from the island chain can cut into the battlefield.
This has greatly reduced the Federal Fleet’s demand for sea-based air forces, but everyone has it, and the Federation has to have it too, and this is the first ship!
The port was cold, but everyone was in high spirits. Mr. President took the bottle, tied it to the rope hanging from the side of the ship, and, together with the admiral, threw it towards the hull.
The moment it hit the hull, the bottle shattered and people cheered.
Weird ritual!
Next, Mr. Truman and a group of celebrities boarded the special battleship and watched the ejection and landing of the plane in person.
Mr. Truman publicly stated that the addition of the sea fortress to the naval service sequence is the first and crucial first step for the Federation to strengthen the navy!
In the future, all aspects of the federal society will invest more energy, continue to make breakthroughs in the development of military science, and use the technological advantages of the generation to lay the foundation for the Federation’s victory in this war…
Just as Mr. President was dealing with those celebrities, his deputy suddenly appeared beside him.
It also drove everyone around Mr. Truman away.
“Mr. President~www.mtlnovel.com~Sedoras has dispatched troops.”
Mr. Trueman froze for a moment, as if he didn’t hear clearly, or heard a huge joke, “The wind is too loud, maybe you can repeat it?”
The deputy’s expression was still very serious, “Sedoras sent troops, he invaded their neighbors, and now Ambassador Sedoras is waiting for you at the Presidential Palace.”
Mr. President immediately realized the seriousness, he immediately ended the ceremony with the Admiral and returned to the Presidential Palace by car.
Sedoras is a small neutral country. It had a good relationship with the Federation before, because the two sides had been together in the First World War to keep warm.
But just now, the Prime Minister of Sedoras announced an invasion war against their neighbors, sending troops… 50,000 people, 100 aircraft, and a total of 350 chariots and tanks of various types.
It sounds like a joke, but not only is it not a joke, it’s very unusual!
