Hours after the 1st and 4th brigade fighters, who consolidate their defenses around the city of Pompeii, defeated the Imperial Army with night shelling, the sun was wrapped around a dazzling morning sun.
A blue sky that is so bright and clear that it is likely to be sucked in, or a brilliant and shining sun, a vast desert that lasts everywhere.
The spectacular view of nature itself created by nature expands to impress the mind of the beholder.
But unfortunately, we know that in an hour or two, the temperature will rise rapidly and we will be devastated by the murderous temperatures, so the soldiers of the Parabellan Army were on the run to finish what needs to be done now, a relatively cool time without a glimpse of the spectacular scenery that spreads in front of them.
"Excuse me. Colonel Barr, the supply unit has arrived. Here's the receipt confirmation document."
"Oh, thank you....... hmm? You came a little earlier than planned. Unusual."
Colonel Barr, who had moved from the semi-basement front-line command post being built in the anti-tank defensive position to the brigade headquarters that had been set up, which had conjured up the lord's hall in the heart of the city of Pompeii, cleared his paperwork, inadvertently drops his gaze on the watch when he receives documents handed to him by Lieutenant Colonel Rommel stating that the supply unit has arrived.
Based on previous experience, there have been no attempts for the supply units to arrive before schedule, and in most cases, even if they rarely arrived as planned, they often arrived after schedule.
If that had arrived earlier than planned, Colonel Barr was surprised, but he couldn't help but wonder if something had happened.
"If that were the case, it would be due to the announcement of a weather forecast that this area would be hit by a severe sandstorm between 10: 00 and noon"
"... oh, that said, you had such a forecast. They arrive early on the street. - Oh, well, then we have to finish the work quickly. I'll see how the work goes."
Colonel Barr nodded again and again as he understood why the supply unit had arrived earlier than planned and was convinced.
"Here you are, Colonel."
This time, however, Colonel Barr followed Lieutenant Colonel Rommel, who had named his offering to inspect the scene, after the brigade headquarters, after finishing loading, unloading and replenishing supplies before the sandstorm struck him, as the supplies he had been transported were items requiring attention for handling, such as weapons, ammunition and fuel.
"But... you really don't have a man, this city"
"That's not limited to this city, Colonel"
"Oh, you did... Was everything near the Imperial City?"
"Yes, from cities and villages near the Imperial Capital, there is not one man over the age of sixteen left, all taken to the Imperial Army"
Colonel Barr and the others leaving brigade headquarters enter a prepared vehicle - a small military vehicle used by the Germans during World War II, the Cuberworgen.
Then he started talking about the city of Pompeii, where a man disappeared in the car of Cuberworgen, which ran out with a mild engine noise.
"Well, thanks to the Imperial Army taking the men, I don't have to worry about guerrillas like toilet soldiers, but it was easier to have them all taken if I were to take them anyway..."
"Absolutely. Women, children, the elderly remain, so invariably the occupied territories need to be governed, plus we no longer have to take care of the food of civilians turned into refugees because of Operation Scorched Earth, and most importantly, the closer we get to the Imperial Capital, the harder it is for us to do the Lowenian faithful."
"That's the problem..."
Colonel Barr hammers at the words of Lieutenant Colonel Rommel, whose sense of reality is plausible.
"The people of the Empire are full of Lowenian followers, so they hate our division, which is organized around demons and beasts... and we are furious with our furious hair rushing through the sky because we almost killed your Excellency. … how unfortunate accidents don't happen in this state"
"I think I'll make it too. Even me in a responsible position, if I may tell you the truth, would like to kill all the Empire's enemies right now. … but don't you worry that we, the Führer, will not be able to waste your time killing, rambling, or working the wretches."
"Well, I guess so. Don't worry about it."
Demons and beasts in the 33rd Mechanical Division tended to be even stronger than the average volunteer soldiers, whose loyalty to Kazuya came together in recruitment because Kazuya saved most of them from the bitterness of the world as slaves.
Therefore, during this retaliatory attack, the 33rd Mechanical Armor Division, which launched the offensive, would achieve an undesirable battle, and that was the result of shackling and futile killing of the angry reason of the soldiers of the 33rd Division - the tragedy of daily tea events was prevented on the battlefield.
"But that's as it is- Hmm? You're here already. We'll talk about this again."
"Ha, roger that."
The two of us tried to get into the conversation, but Cuberworgen arrived at his destination and stopped, so he cut the conversation and went outside to inspect the site of the supply operation.
"Yeah, at this point, you don't seem to have a problem."
"Yes, it's handy."
Colonel Barr and Lieutenant Colonel Rommel had their eyes open from a slight distance so as not to interfere with the replenishment work.
At the end of the line of sight, a large number of state-of-the-art large military trucks lined up neatly - had automatically lowered containers to the ground using a lift (arm roll) mounted by the HEMTT A4.
Then, the dropped container is immediately fitted with the soldiers who were waiting for it, which depends on the transport of the supplies contained inside.
Soldiers carry out artillery shells in a forklift that are placed on a pallet and lumped together, handing over cardboard containing pet bottles of drinking water, combat food and fresh food one after the other like a bucket relay.
Also elsewhere, demons and beastman soldiers use magic to carry explosives delivered to iron ammunition boxes and crates across the universe and transport them to temporary staging grounds.
"" Huh!?
……
……
"... hey, Lieutenant Colonel Rommel?
"... what is it, Colonel Barr"
Colonel Barr and Lieutenant Colonel Rommel were watching the progress of the loading and unloading and replenishment operations of such supplies, but they were to flash ahead the three tank carriers that came to Pompeii as they rolled up sand and dust.
"He said yesterday it was reinforcements? I mean, why was he sent here?
"It's... I don't know either"
Because the tanks that those three tank carriers carried on the carrier were too unexpected things.
"... why, why in this phase... the" giant ”is being sent?
The name of that tank was KV-2, which was equipped with a pink camouflage that was considered valid in a desert-like place and was so enormous that the body was disproportionately equipped with a 20-calibre 152mm howitzer M10 because it was forced to ride in half.
Because of its giant, it is a heavy tank also called Giganto (Giant).
Although the car, developed by the Soviet Union during World War II, boasted powerful firepower as it appeared, it needed two loaders because it had adopted a separation drug formula. The firing speed was slow, and the turret itself had a large frontal projection area due to the fact that it was about the back length of a person.
In addition, despite the significantly larger turret, the turret ring diameter was the same as the original KV-1, with considerable impediments to supporting a turret with a few tons.
The heavier turret could not be rotated satisfactorily with the body tilted, to the extent that it interfered with the battle.
In other words, a tank called KV-2 was like a fixed turret that was excellent in terms of fire power but had limited use.
"- With all due respect, Colonel. This Giganto is not the same Giganto as the Colonel knows."
"What?"
A voice burst out to argue with Colonel Barr's grunt, who was looking at KV-2, which was more difficult to use than troubled, with a frightened face.
"... what about you?
When Colonel Barr turned his face to those who heard him, there stood a magnificent soldier in battle clothes for tank soldiers.
"Oh, excuse me for this. I am Captain Johann Abrosimov, who has been ordered to be assigned to the 4th Brigade Combat Regiment to keep this platoon of Giganto."
Colonel Barr returns his reply to Captain Abrosimov, who said so and showed him the salute he entered the hall.
"Right, good luck. I am Colonel Barr Ardalberto, Commander of the 1st Brigade Combat Regiment. This is Lieutenant Colonel Elvin Rommel, deputy director. So, Captain Abrosimov? What makes this Giganto so different from the Giganto there?
"Well done. Listen to me. That's right, modernized renovations were put in place to counteract enemy quantity operations, so to speak KV-2“ Modify "!!"
It was already too late when Colonel Barr regretted seeing Captain Abrosimov proudly speaking with his eyes gleaming and clamping at the excess.
"Of course, there was not a single problem left to improve. With automatic loading equipment installed in the free space through modernization and renovation, the firing speed has been improved, and the engine has been converted to something with more horsepower. Also, in the unlikely event that an automated loading device fails due to the hiring of powerful cattle and orgasm crew, the firing speed will not drop, and we have succeeded in reducing personnel. Besides, he has been reborn as a mass op killer and a man-made sea tactical killer with a large number of canister bullets that are interpersonal shells!! I mean, the hard side and the soft side are perfect!! And even more..."
Colonel Barr's eyebrows gradually connect to the KV-2 rigging, which gradually increases fever and unfolds like rage.
"Stop!! Enough, now that you've figured it out, go to the 4th Brigade Command and ask for directions."
"Ha... Got it"
Without any more endless invisibility, Captain Abrosimov honestly walked toward the 4th Brigade Combat Command with a slightly unfortunate look on his face when Colonel Barr forced him to halt the conversation.
"What the hell was that... he was"
"Come on?"
Colonel Barr and Lieutenant Colonel Rommel were face-to-face with each other after Captain Abrosimov, who was talking fervently about KV-2, left.
"Keep inspecting for now - blah blah!? Gee ho, peppe!! Huh!? Damn, you came sooner than forecast!!
A sudden gust of wind blows as the two try to get back on their minds and continue their inspection of the supply site.
When Colonel Barr looked up at the sky on the wind with the flying sand in his mouth and vomited unintentionally, the sky was dyed brown on one side by the sand winded up by the wind.
"Colonel, evacuate to brigade headquarters before the sandstorm strikes!!
"Oh, let's do that. But - it should be faster from here to the front command post in the anti-tank defensive position than running all over the city of Pompeii back to Brigade headquarters. We're going to the front command post."
Copy that, sir.
To avoid the approaching sandstorm, Colonel Barr and Lieutenant Colonel Rommel embarked on the Cuberworgen and hurried to the Front Line Command post after ordering the soldiers to interrupt the supply operations and evacuate temporarily.
"You don't see anything, it's like night"
Colonel Barr squeaks as he watches what's going on outside from a small peephole in the front command post.
Outside, there was a buzz and fierce wind, and at the same time the sunlight was blocked because of the sand grains that were dancing in the sky, and the area was surrounded by darkness like after sunset, even though it was before noon.
Moreover, Colonel Barr and his men were temporarily completely blind, though, due to the unavailability of security devices such as various sensors and surveillance cameras stretched around because of a violent sandstorm.
"I can't help it because it's such a severe sandstorm. After noon - seems to fit in a little more... but until then I was wondering if I'd have to wait."
"Wait hey...... well better than a dong patch, but it hurts to have a sandstorm before you finish the replenishment work. At this point, soldier, I need you to resume your supply work in the fucking heat.... With that said, are the ones on the reconnaissance okay?
"I am ordering you to evacuate temporarily until the sandstorm has subsided, but because of this sandstorm the radio is in poor condition and we are not currently in contact. Go ahead."
"Hmm? Oh, I'm sorry. Zuzz, huh. After all, the things the Colonel will brew are delicious."
The beverage Colonel Rommel brewed for me - Colonel Barr smiled with words leaked from his heart, with the ice magically produced by the Colonel in it and a mouthful of cold ice coffee in the kink.
"Huh, thank you"
To Colonel Barr's honest compliments, Lieutenant Colonel Rommel shook his fuzzy tail wide to the left and right as he blushed his cheeks and patterned his fox ears, eventually lowering his head as small as a blindfold.
……
The other soldiers, who had seen and heard such exchanges up close, had closed their mouths with indescribable faces and had conversations with only their gaze.
Because there were circumstances I couldn't tell you.
"(Have you not noticed that the Colonel is still a woman?)"
"(Totally unaware. Yesterday, after some sort of combat placement was lifted, he said, 'I don't have any water, so let's take a bath together. It doesn't matter' cause we're guys' or something. I used to say sexual harassment naturally)"
"(Um, well. Suppose the lieutenant colonel knew she was a woman...... I don't mean to make such sexual harassment remarks about the colonel's character)"
"(Well, you're a tough guy in many ways, Colonel... but you're also a pain in the ass)"
"(Whatever… will you observe for some time now? Never want to have fun with the relationship)"
"(Oh, let's do that. I'm never enjoying the difference)"
The soldiers who knew Colonel Barr's mistake, which had arisen from his neutral face, low voice and small breasts, were curious to see when they would find out - that Lieutenant Colonel Rommel was a woman and that he was in love with the Colonel.
"Whoa, the wind's weakening."
Colonel Barr, who does not know that his men are the object of observation and betting, noticed remarkably that the wind cut noise, which was ear damage, had subsided slightly, and said so, approached the source of the peephole again.
"- Let it go!!... Zar............ then!!... Kiko... Eye... Respond... Enemy... Zah... Oh my God... '
'- Here... Zazz... Squad!!... Awesome... I want to... Quick... Respond... Give me that!!
'- Zah,... give me your permission... Mm!! Immediately... Needed... Zah... Zah... Reply... Zah'
"Colonel Barr, the reconnaissance unit is in!! But the radio waves are bad and I can't hear the content."
As Colonel Barr stares out of the peephole, communications enter all the radios installed at the front command post.
The communication could not know the content because the audio was obscure, but she was pregnant with a sense of urgency that would inform her of an emergency.
"Maximize the radio output. And just in case, put all units in combat position."
"" "Roger!!
"... what's going on?
It was when Colonel Barr murmured as he moved from quasi-alerting to combat and inside the front-line command post where the air was strained.
The light of day begins to shine around as the sandstorm passes. At the same time, surveillance camera footage and radios perform conventionally.
"This is 3rd Squad!! CP, can you hear me!! Enemy attack!! The Imperial Army is in front of you!!
"7th Squad to CP!! The Imperial Army is on the opposite bank of the Negative River!! Pay attention!! Repeat, the Imperial Army is forming opposite the Negative River!!
"This is 9th Squad!! Receive enemies with the Imperial Army!! Permission to withdraw!!
"... oh my god"
The radios raised one clear voice announcing the approaching of the Imperial Army, and the footage sent by a surveillance camera buried in half the sand to a monitor placed at the Front Line Command Station contained a neatly arranged image of the Imperial Army.
