Macho Wars

Not to be outdone, the Principality Army immediately turned its guns and began bombarding the fortress on the top of the mountain.However, several gun positions in the fort were concealed. Seeing that the enemy began to suppress them, the artillery immediately dragged the mountain cannon to retract.

The fleet's cannonballs did not cause the slightest loss, except that the defenders in the fort had fallen from the ashes of the Linggai wall for a day.

On the airport side, the Principality Army finally encountered an ambush by the imperial defenders near the building complex.

The defender deliberately let some enemy troops in, then closed the door and beat the dog.Taking advantage of the two major advantages of more automatic weapons and familiarity with the terrain, about half of the infantry company was trapped in a large warehouse in the complex.

This is the tactic that Dragon explained before, letting a part of the enemy in as a "talisman".

The two sides are engaged in fierce street fighting in the building complex, and every street and every house may become a battlefield.

At the end of the building complex is the entrance to the cavern. Dragun is organizing engineers to make the final reinforcement of the defensive position at the entrance of the cave.

This was originally a fortification specially built by the maidens on the island in response to possible foreign enemy invasion, so it was built into a permanent fortification. There are a lot of shooting holes on the mountain above the entrance of the cave.

Dragon was standing at the entrance of the cave, looking forward through the machine gun, and the gunshot was less than two hundred meters away from their side.

Beside him is Brigadier General Levsto from the Tarrans Army.After a few days of getting along, the old general sincerely developed a trace of military admiration for Dragon.

The first time I saw Dragon, Levsto saw that he was a lieutenant colonel at a young age, managing a regiment’s local garrison. He thought he was the son of a high-ranking imperial official. The seniority is gilded, so the appearance is very low, but in my heart he doesn't look down on him at all.

But as the war broke out, Dragon quickly used practical actions to make Levsto look at him with admiration.

This young man has excellent performance regardless of courage and strategy. He is able to line up troops and lead the way, and he is well-respected by the grassroots officers and soldiers.

Levsto couldn't help but compare him with his two sons who had died in battle. Dragoon was younger, but he did better than both of them.

And even more commendable, he was a civilian.

Levsto knows very well how many times a commoner needs to work harder than a nobleman to get ahead!

It is precisely because of this admiration that Levsto is willing to put down his figure, take his own troops, and willingly obey Dragon's dispatch.

However, admiration is admiration, and trust is trust, Brigadier General Levsto is not optimistic about whether they can rely on this cave to stick to it for 13 days.

At this time Princess Alicia came over. She had already learned about the situation from others, and knew that the Imperial Army had fully retreated back to the cave.

In the past few days, she has seen a lot in the battlefield hospital, and her mentality has also changed. She has sympathized and apologized to these loyal Imperial soldiers.Although she does not understand military affairs, she also understands that Dragon and his soldiers have tried their best.

Therefore, she wanted to come forward in person, as an imperial princess, to negotiate with the opposing principality army.

Dragon smiled and thanked Princess Princess for his care for the soldiers, but they can still fight now, please respect their dignity as soldiers.

Admit to the enemy?nonexistent!

Chapter 204 Death and Rebirth

What can war bring?This problem has plagued Alicia for a long time.

Born in an imperial house, although Alicia does not have to worry about the government, she herself has no ambitions, but since her childhood, the word "war" has often been accompanied by various characters in her ears. .

Her father, Emperor Sidney XIV, was overjoyed by the advent of the war. Her elder brothers talked loudly at the banquet, expressing their strategic and tactical views, while those romantic noble brothers, I will take the opportunity to swear affectionately in front of my favorite young ladies and go to the battlefield to get honor, as if war is a very romantic thing!

Only the fat minister of finance would occasionally complain with a sad face, believing that high military expenditures would put the empire’s finances into strain.

Amidst the feasting and feasting, the upper-class figures used elegant and funny conversations to outline a magnificent world of war for Alicia.The knights there are brave and fearless, and the generals are resourceful, just like great epics in ancient myths.

But just like the fairy tales I heard in my childhood, the unreal things will eventually shatter.Alicia's first personal experience of war was the battle of Tarrans's destruction.

Even if she doesn't have to step on the battlefield, she can still see many tragedies happening every day when she stays behind.Men who are gone forever, women who cry, the sadness, worry and fear in the eyes of old people and children.

In such an environment, Alicia couldn't help being infected by this emotion, becoming a little anxious and worried.

After that, she and the Tarrans exiles crossed the ocean to the Zhibodan Islands. The war followed in their footsteps and burned to the colony that the empire had just come under.

This time, Alicia no longer stayed behind in safety, but was next to the front line of the battle, and witnessed many deaths with her own eyes.

War is never a romantic thing!

These days, Alicia has been helping the medical staff on the island to treat the wounded. She has learned dressing, dressing, and intravenous injections, and because there are so many subjects for her to practice, her level of improvement is also rapid.

The wounded were surprised at the beauty of the rookie nurse at first, and occasionally teased them, but soon learned of the identity of her princess, and they were flattered and grateful for her condescending behavior.

Even Dragon must admit that because Alicia is there, the morale of the soldiers is greatly guaranteed.

The battle on the island continued. On the fifth day of Dragon's retreat to the cave, the Principality Army finally unilaterally stopped the offensive, giving both sides a chance to breathe.

Dragon counted the forces at hand. There were only 500 people left in the cave to continue fighting. Although the fortress on the top of the mountain was not lost, the artillery was about to run out of ammunition, which meant that they would no longer be able to provide fire cover for this side. , The two sides can only fight separately.

In the command room, Dragon leaned on a chair and closed his eyes to rest. He hadn't slept for ten hours in total for five days after retreating to the cave. He was shaggy and tired.

He felt that his spirit was at its limit, as if he might fall at any time, but as the commander-in-chief of the army, he had to grit his teeth and persevere.

At this moment Tafi walked in, and Dragon immediately opened his eyes, saw that she was holding a telegram in her hand, reached out and took a look, couldn't help but smile.

"Allow us to surrender decently?"

"How do we respond?"

"Send them two words, silly ×!"

After Tafee left, Dragon shrank and was about to sleep for a while, but it was not five minutes before his eyes closed, and there was a rush of footsteps outside the door. The visitor did not even knock on the door. Bumped into the door abruptly.

Dragon frowned and opened his eyes, and saw a young witch standing in the doorway panting.Dragon remembered this little girl, her name was Akatsuki, she was an apprentice of the war maiden at the shrine, and a student of Yunlong.

As soon as the violent girl rushed in, she yelled without waiting for Dragon to speak.

"Sister Yunlong, she is going to give birth!"

"what!?"

Hearing that Yunlong was about to give birth, Dragon jumped up from the chair with a quick rub.The range of the movement was so great that the blood supply to the brain was somewhat insufficient, making him faintly dizzy.

These days, Dragon has been busy with the stalemate situation in front of him, and dare not be distracted at all, so even if he is not far away, he has not visited them.I'm afraid that when I see my sweet wife, I will touch the soft part of my heart, so I can't think calmly without distraction.

Xiao saw Dragoon stood up and wobbly, with a dazed look that he hadn't woken up, hurriedly stepped forward and took his hand, and walked out the door in strides.

The two ran across the corridor in this way, and they met Alicia on the road.

When Ashlea saw Dragon, she wanted to say hello to him, but before she could speak, Akatsuki had dragged Dragon and galloped past her, like a runaway destroyer.

Alicia, who was left hanging in place, was taken aback for a moment, completely unaware of what happened.Seeing that Dragon was heading for the residential area, and she was just about to take a rest "off work", she subconsciously followed.

Soon, Alicia also rushed to the sound, and she saw many women in red and white dresses gathered outside a room door from a distance.

Alicia has heard from Dragon that the indigenous women on these islands are called witches and belong to a local sect called Ryugu Shrine.Dragun also confessed that he fell in love with a young woman named Yunlong in this sect. The two have already married and will soon have the crystallization of their love.

When Dragun mentioned the woman, his eyes were filled with happiness. It was obvious that he loved his wife very much and was not affected by her birth.
