Arc of Gunfire
Chapter 733 Ike's chance has come
July 20, 917, Proson Empire, Eagle's Nest.
"Last year, we designed an armored train based on local defense." Experts from the Imperial Ordnance Bureau introduced to the emperor. "The characteristic of this train is that only one side is armored, so that the armor can be piled very thickly. "In order to balance the weight, we placed the weapons and mechanical devices inside the train on the other side."
Emperor: "The cross-section of this thing looks so ugly!"
Expert: "But it is indestructible! Negative carriages are connected together and parked on the railway to form a ready-made defense line. We have organized three armored trains and parked them on the only way Rokossov must pass! They will definitely be able to play their role. Huge effect!”
Emperor: "Then what if Ant's infantry approaches at night and buries explosives under the car?"
"We have the latest night vision searchlights!"
"What about complex terrain? According to what you said, we need to build an extra-long train, right? Then there will definitely be trains stopping on complex terrain. How to prevent enemy infantry from approaching through complex terrain and then setting off explosives?"
"Just a little explosive will not overturn the entire train, especially such a heavy carriage." The expert gestured vigorously, "Even if a section of the carriage is blown down, it will not affect the entire defense line. Even if the entire train is destroyed , he is also an obstacle to the Ant tanks!"
General Moltke, Director of Armored Forces: "He is right. Your Majesty, if we initially considered that this train would be destroyed by the Ants, this obstacle could actually kill and injure the Ants before it was destroyed!"
The emperor touched his cheek with his finger, touched it back and forth several times, and then said: "Okay, let's put the three existing trains into operation, and allocate a few factories that produce wagons to produce this thing. How many can be produced before August?"
"There are only ten days until August," the Celtic marshal reminded.
“Okay, how many can we produce before September?”
Expert: "I have calculated that if all the first, second and third factories of Holker are allocated to us to produce this thing, 600 carriages can be put into battle by September! After all, I have considered productivity when designing. !”
Emperor: "Go ahead and produce as many wagons as possible to stop the Ants!"
The expert happily left with his design.
Marshal Celtic muttered: "The remaining question is, how many railways do we have that are right across the enemy's attack path? What if the enemy attacks along the railway? From a logistical point of view, the best way to attack along the railway is Isn’t it the optimal solution?”
Emperor: "Then do you have a better way to prevent the Ants from attacking?"
"We can use ships to pick up people from the sea like the United Kingdom. We also control the Baltic Sea." Marshal Celtic came to the map and picked up the map stick to draw. "The distance is also better than the United Kingdom's retreat. The weather is short and the Baltic Sea is calmer.”
Emperor: "You said the same thing when you retreated Army Group A the year before last!"
"We did not have control of the air the year before last and were taken advantage of by the United States' experienced Hainan Airlines. This year's theater is within the operational range of the local air force, and the air force's me262 jet fighter has an absolute advantage."
After Marshal Celtic finished speaking, Grand Duke Meyer said with his head held high: "That's right, our May 262 jet fighter has achieved great results since it was put into combat. It shot down many aircraft of the Allied ace pilots, which is a great blow to the Allied forces. The interception efficiency of military bombers has also been greatly improved.”
Grand Duke Meyer has been deflated since the Allied forces changed the air raid mode last year. He was all disgraced during meetings, but now he can finally straighten up.
The emperor glanced at the Grand Duke: "I have carefully looked at the data of 262, and every performance is obviously better than the data of the Allied Mustang fighter provided by the Air Force. Then I don't understand, why is the battle situation in the air not one-sided? Why is it still there? How many jets were shot down by enemy Mustangs?"
Grand Duke Meyer took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat: "Half of the 262 was lost on the ground. This kind of aircraft needs a very long taxiing distance to take off, and there is basically no way to scramble into the air after detecting an incoming enemy aircraft. enemy.
"But we have already made a response. Now we have built a strong hangar for 262. The bombs carried by enemy fighters cannot damage this kind of hangar. Before 262 rolls out of the hangar and prepares to take off, take off the tower 152 combat mechanism first... …”
Emperor: "Really? Now that we have solved the half that was lost on the ground, what about the other half? What about the half that was lost in the air?"
Grand Duke Meyer wiped his sweat again: "It's because... our pilots were inexperienced and made wrong operations."
"Why is there a lack of experience? Didn't you say that the combat experience of the Prossen Air Force is inferior to the rookies of the Allied Forces?"
"That was last year." The Grand Duke replied concisely.
The emperor was choked by these words and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Marshal Celtic: "The quality of all branches of our military is generally declining, and it is not a matter of the Air Force alone."
The emperor lowered his gaze and looked at the documents and reports in front of him.
A solemn atmosphere enveloped the entire conference room for a moment.
Just then, the Grand Master of the Asgard Knights entered the room.
Originally, the position of grand master was concurrently held by Gil Ace, but after his death, it was handed over to the current grand master. This grand commander was not well received in the Wehrmacht because he was a farmer himself, so the senior generals of the Wehrmacht disdainfully called him the "Chicken Factory Director."
Grand Commander: "The preparations for Operation Laufer have been completed. Once the operation is launched, Rokossov must stop marching north to rescue Melania's people! We can take the opportunity to combine the Northern Army Group and the Central The army group retreated to the fortified area near Coburg."
General Moltke: "Operation Laufer?"
He looked at Marshal Celtic, who also spread his hands, indicating that he didn't know.
Grand Commander: “Yes, this is an action planned by His Majesty and I to force Melania’s resistance organization to launch an uprising in advance. In this way, international pressure will force Rokossov to turn his troops. His troops will be drawn to the line of the Vistula River and scattered across the vast Melania Plain!"
The head of the Secret Service of the Imperial Household Ministry frowned: "You mean to force the Melania people to revolt in their capital and large cities in the west? That can indeed put pressure on Rokossov, but how to force them to revolt in advance?
"Now smart people know that if they wait a little longer... things will turn in their favour."
The spy chief cleverly changed "The Empire will collapse" to "The situation will be favorable to them."
He continued: "Heilman, the leader of the Melania people, will not make such a mistake. If they rebel at this time, it will only waste their strength in vain.
"We also tried to instigate Heilman to revolt in advance through people who worked for us in the resistance organization, but he refused. The United Kingdom also urged Heilman to revolt, and also asked the exile government to airdrop the special commissioner - but he refused. Unmoved."
The spy chief stared at the chief.
"How are you going to make this calm and experienced warrior unable to resist an uprising?"
The grand leader showed a sinister smile: "We ordered the Knights District Teams from various places to capture Melania's children, gather them together and kill them on the streets, so that they will have to revolt."
Silence fell on the conference room again.
General Mao Qi, the director of armored forces, turned to the emperor and shouted: "This is wrong!"
"Shut up!" The emperor stood up and threw the pencil in his hand on the table, "I am saving Prosem! In order to save Prosem, I will not hesitate to turn into a devil!"
Mao Qi closed his mouth and looked at the emperor with an expression of disbelief.
The emperor was still shouting: "You are now beginning to condemn me! But have you ever thought about why we took this step? Because you failed to defeat Rokosov! You failed to end the war!
"Think about it carefully, why did Rokossov's troops fight more and more? There is only one possibility, that is, you deceived me! You falsely reported the results! You messed up everything, and now you blame me!
"I'm just wiping your butts! Wiping your butts! Wiping your butts, do you understand?"
The senior generals looked at each other.
His Majesty the Emperor let out a long sigh and seemed to have finally calmed down. He looked at the Grand Commander: "How is the situation?"
"Resistance organizations in many cities have been unable to hold on to revolts. I think as long as the supporters of the Imperial Household Ministry within the resistance organizations add fuel to the flames, a large-scale uprising will happen." The chief of the group looked at the secret agent. chief.
The spy leader pushed up his glasses: "Next time there is such an action, you should say hello to us first. Our supporters only have a cooperative relationship with us. If you do this, they may make them--"
"What can they do?" the grand leader laughed, "If the empire fails, don't they know what is waiting for them? They have already boarded the empire's chariot."
Secret Service Chief: "You're right, but you should still say hello to us first."
"I was negligent. I offer you a small gift to express my apology." As he spoke, the Grand Commander took out a large brown paper envelope and stuffed it into the hands of the head of the Imperial Palace. "These photos were taken by us. You can give them to you." Internal response, pretending to be 'the truth brought back by our comrades-in-arms', even that Hellman would be unable to hold back."
The spy chief took the envelope, hesitated for a moment, but still didn't open it: "I won't read the contents."
The emperor took over: "In addition to Operation Laufer, we have to make two preparations. If Rokossov does not change the direction of the attack under international pressure, we need to deploy more troops to stop him!
"The Western Wall fortifications on the Western Front have been unprecedentedly strengthened under the supervision of Marshal Romell. We can transfer the field troops on the Western Front to the Eastern Front. The 70 field divisions on the Western Front can be reduced to forty. ! In addition, we can draw ten divisions from the Balkans and the Kingdom of Sardinia!
"This way we will have fifty divisions of fresh troops to stop Rokosov's attack!"
At this time, Marshal Erwin Rohmel, the commander-in-chief of the Western Front, who had always had a non-interest attitude, stood up: "How can this be done? There are millions of Allied soldiers on the other side of the strait, just waiting to cross the strait!"
Duke Redwitz, the leader of Rabelais, said: "Our ace spy Garcia reported that the Allied forces across the strait actually only have one million people. Because of your outstanding performance, the Allied forces have decided to defeat the Fuso Empire first.
"The Allied landing fleets are now in the direction of the Pacific."
Erwin Romell hesitated: "Is it that Garcia?"
"Yes, the Garcia who is as famous as the Clutter Bureau." Duke Redwidge said with a proud look on his face.
Romell thought for a while: "If it's one million, I can deal with it with only thirty divisions, but you can't deploy my armored divisions! Absolutely not!"
"Of course not," the emperor patted his chest, "I will definitely not mobilize your armored divisions. The fifty divisions mobilized this time are all infantry divisions. The purpose is not to counterattack, but to put up an iron wall in front of Rokossov to block him. ! We will refer to his tactics in Abawahan, break the troops into pieces, and resist until the last moment!"
Erwin Romell nodded: "That's good. All that's left is to hope that there are really only one million enemies."
————
"Three million troops are ready to go!" Admiral Little John, holding a cigar in his mouth, said to the Allied Commander-in-Chief General Ike, four-star general, "There are also Super Pershing tanks! There is absolutely no way Proson can drive us into the sea this time! "
Ekko: "Actually, if we delay for a while and wait for the Proscenians to mobilize more troops to the eastern front, we will have a greater chance of success. If we attack too early, the Prossens cannot mobilize the troops, and it may be too late. Kosov will end the war this year."
Admiral Littlejohn: "What, do you think my attack speed will lose to that Kutuzov?"
"It's Rokosov."
Admiral Little John waved his hands repeatedly: "The names of the Ant people are so long, how can you remember them! If you ask me, we will land tomorrow, and then compete with the Ant people in speed.
"They want to occupy the heart of Plossen, and they have to cross the entire East Europa, and then the territory of Plossen. After we land, we will pass through the Low Countries, and we will reach the heart of Plossen! We have the advantage, Ai gram!"
Admiral Ike said earnestly: "However, Prosonia is closer to them. When Emperor Prossen was planning this new capital, he deliberately kept it far away from the coastline and West Europa in order to prevent the United Kingdom from being easily threatened. to this new capital.”
Admiral Littlejohn: "Then why doesn't he put it in the mountains of Bavaria? That's even further away! Or just choose Werna as the capital!"
Admiral Ike: "In short, D-Day will be a day in August. We have to give the Proscenians more time to mobilize their troops. It's useless for you to tell me. It's better to pray for a good weather forecast as soon as possible." Weather, we might be able to land just after August.”
Little John put on his steel helmet: "Damn politicians! I know without thinking that it must be Leonard who asked for the postponement! If it weren't for him, we would have landed in June!"
Admiral Ike looked at Little John and said with a smile: "Looking at the best, we can break into Prosonia before that Rokossov."
Little John: "No! This is a joke! Even if he and I arrive at the outskirts of Prosonia at the same time, I will let him go to the city first! Do you understand?"
After a brief pause, the thorny general himself smiled: "But if he is still blocked on the east bank of the Oder River when we arrive in Prosonia, you're welcome!"
Everyone in the room laughed.

Return to the Eagle's Nest.
During the break of the meeting, in the lounge, General Moltke lowered his voice and asked the Celtic Marshal: "What do you think?"
"Walls have ears. It's best not to look at them," said the Celtic marshal.
Marshal Erwin Romell also came over: "Borrow me a fire."
The Celtic marshal nodded and took a long drag to light up the cigarette.
After Marshal Romel lit the fire, he just held the cigarette without smoking, and said solemnly: "Since the death of His Excellency Giles, has His Majesty gradually become hysterical?"
The other two people stared at Marshal Romell with expressions of "Damn it, you dare to say that?"
Erwin Romell continued: "Operation Laufer will nail the entire empire to the pillar of shame. If it is effective, the worst thing is that Rokossov will ignore this action and continue to march north."
General Moltke: "Maybe then, he will be guilty of the same thing as us."
"Maybe." After a brief silence, Erwin asked, "Will he care?"
Marshal Celtic: "He may not care about this, but if the resistance organization will be forced to revolt because of these, then Rokossov may also change the target of the attack because of these."
Marshal Romel: "Do you think so? He is the commander who personally ordered thousands of people to go to the battlefield and die. Think of the order he gave in Aba Wahan.
"No, he will not be merciful and change the target of the attack. The only thing that will work in the end is the fifty divisions we mobilized in the past. This damn Laufer operation should be stopped. It has nothing but a bad reputation for us. significance!"
General Mao Qi: "How about you go and speak to His Majesty?"
Erwin shut his mouth.
Celtic Marshal: "We do our part, and the rest - let him be."

July 21, Melania’s capital, in a house on the Vistula River.
Hellman smoked silently, and the representatives from each district in front of him were enthusiastic.
"We can't stand it any longer! They are systematically killing children!"
"Heilmann! We must rise!"
Hellman: "Can the uprising defeat the Plosen garrison? You should tell me!"
"We can gather the guerrillas from the surrounding villages and cities, so that we will have enough strength advantage!"
Hellman: "What about weapons? Do we have enough weapons?"
"You can capture the enemy's weapons depot and open the warehouse to distribute weapons! And we have been preparing for the uprising and stockpiling weapons, haven't we?"
Hellman: "The reason why there has been no uprising until now is because there are not enough reserves! The Prossens have seized several of our arsenals in succession. Now we do not allow uprising regardless of the personnel or weapons and equipment!
"We should wait for the Ant Army to come over and then cooperate with them! When the Proscenians are defeated and want to destroy the railway hubs and bridges, we should take sudden action to protect the bridges and hubs. This is the right approach!
"With our help, the Ant Army can quickly recover the entire Melania and reach the bank of the Oder River! That side is Prosonia!"
After Hellman finished speaking, someone sneered: "I finally understand, you are an Ant lackey!"
Immediately, someone was unhappy and grabbed the collar of the person who said this: "Asshole! Without Hellman, we wouldn't be able to hold on now! Please keep your mouth clean!"
Hellman: "That's enough! Okay! It's normal for everyone to complain about me. Our top priority is not to revolt, but to cover and evacuate the children who have not been caught and hide them.
"As for the children who have been captured, since the Purosans' goal is to lure us into action, they will not kill them all at once. We will find a way to rescue the children who are locked up.
"A hasty uprising may play into the hands of the Prossen people."
Everyone who had been so excited just now calmed down a little.
At this time, the person who just said that Hellman was Ant's lackey said: "Can't we go to Rokossov and ask him to detach a force and stop the atrocities? He has so many troops, and he has to spend hundreds of thousands of them. Is it okay to liberate the entire Melania?”
Someone immediately echoed: "Yes, Rokossov also has a force composed of Melania people, called the Melania People's Army. Let this force march towards us. Prossen is already at the end of his tack. , one army can beat them away!"
The people who had been quiet just now started making noise again:
"Yes! Let Melania rescue her children!"
"It seems to be calling Melania's People's Army, let them come!"
"Contact Rokosov, he will save us!"
Hellman: "Quiet! All right, quiet!"
He shouted several times before the room became quiet.
Hellman: "Rokossov's troops are outflanking Army Group Center and Army Group North of Plossen. Spreading the troops will only make the Plossians happy!"
"We will be happy too! Anyway, it's only a matter of time before the Plosans perish. What's wrong with having fewer troops to surround them?"
"Yes, I think this Rokossov is just greedy for that little bit of martial arts! He wants to be Ant's number one general, replacing Suvorov!"
"Yes!"
"Quiet!" Hellman scolded, "I will send a special envoy to explain the current situation to General Rokossov. Maybe the general has the ability to help us. Others remember, you cannot rebel, and you must protect those who have not been captured. Children!"
At this time, fierce gunshots were heard outside.
"What's going on?" Heilman asked.
Everyone looked at each other.
"I don't know. The leaders of all districts are here. Is it possible that we don't know about the action?"
The gunfire outside became increasingly intensive.
At this time, someone entered the venue and shouted: "No! The detachment from the third district is in trouble! They are besieging the armory!"
"What? Armory?"
"How many people were involved in the operation?" Heilman asked.
"More than a hundred!"
Hellman was silent.
"Heilman, we can't wait any longer! Take action! Otherwise, we will have to sit back and watch more than a hundred people sacrifice their lives! They might even be uprooted!"
"Do it, Heilman!"
Hellman put his pipe upside down on the table and sighed: "Hey. The liaison team set off quickly. Only Rokossov can help us now. The others immediately returned to their divisions and began to mobilize all their forces! "
