This is no ordinary raid.

The extreme cold in Zezhou has just ended, and neither side's troops are in place. According to common sense, they should have at least three to four days before they have small-scale contact.

And the security of the empire has already reached the highest level.

The elite troops of the Papal State were able to bypass their reconnaissance and deployment and raid their positions.

Apparently, this would not have been possible without the help of an inside ghost.

It is not known who it is, but the instigator behind it needless to say, it must be Lin Yabo and Yu Zhongxian.

This is the most obvious dismounting.

If you want to stand up, I will smash your platform.

You can't win a war, and of course no one is afraid of you.

Everyone was very angry. The two raids lost a total of more than 9,000 imperial soldiers. They died not from the enemy, but from their own people.

These high-ranking officials of the empire have completely regarded the soldiers of the empire as tools, and they have nothing in their hearts other than their own interests.

The anger in Li Longxing's heart could not be suppressed, and he became more determined to start cleaning from the Council after returning.

He quickly adjusted the three disabled divisions, and immediately mobilized the ace division to attack the Weishanling position head-on, while the royal guards circled around and outflanked.

The action was not unpleasant, but the enemy not only ran away, but also fully anticipated their pursuit route and threw them away.

boom!

"I'm fucked!"

Xu Lishan, the commander of the guards, slammed the table and cursed angrily: "If I go back to the capital, I must chop up these bastards and feed them to the dogs."

"Old Xu, it's useless to scold here." The commander of the Guards also said to Nanshan: "The war is about to start, why don't you think about how to win the battle."

"Fuck him." Xu Lishan was furious: "I'm fighting bloody in the front, and someone shoots black guns behind me. How can I fight? Why don't you go back to Beijing and smash those bastards first."

"Stop talking nonsense, Old Xu."

"Why are you talking nonsense, at worst, I will risk my life."

"All transfer orders have to go through the Marshal's Department. Before your troops leave the camp, they will be regarded as a rebellion. Can you go back?"

"Okay." Li Longxing stopped their quarrel, "This kind of thing has obviously crossed the line, and I will seek help from the Supreme Council."

After a pause, he said solemnly: "Next, we will start the war according to the established strategy of the Marshal's Department. With a battle line of nearly a thousand kilometers and a depth of several hundred kilometers, once a battle of millions of people starts, the surprise attack will be useless."

"As long as we are strong, no matter how hard they pull, they will not be able to tear our hind legs."

Guo Feng, the executive staff officer, agreed: "Modern warfare is about logistics and national strength. Although the Pope has a large number of people, most of them are cannon fodder."

"The excessive number of people has made it more difficult for them to organize, and the logistical pressure is huge, which is unbearable. We only need to use a solid defense and suppress them with advanced weapons to gain the strategic initiative."

Li Longxing nodded: "Will the highest hope that we will be defeated, and the Central Army will not want its own strength to be damaged. Active defense is the strategy they want most."

Imperial Marshal Shang Lianshan nodded and said, "Your Majesty, I will fully support you at the military meeting of the Marshal's Department."

Li Longxing nodded, "The victory of the empire depends on everyone sitting here."

"Long live the Empire!"

Everyone said in unison: "Long live the empire!"

——

In another small meeting room in Xindengcheng Lord's Fort.

Li Linyue summoned all the key members of the princess faction. Except for a few old people and internal affairs personnel, most of them are young generals, including the imperial twin stars Yang Jiewei and Xu Feili.

Most of them belong to the local army or the central army.

She never reached out to the Royal Guard under her father's command.

"Everyone."

Li Linyue is still in military uniform, and her beautiful face makes her look like the goddess of war walking in the painting.

"I think everyone knows what happened recently."

"This is what I said before that the sun is obscured by clouds, and the voice of truth is drowned by murmurs."

"If the empire had only one voice, and His Majesty the Emperor held complete authority, the order was in order, the despicable people could not move an inch, the Dulwich people swaggered forward, the lawless people would die without a body, and the laws of the empire would not be violated. What happened today would not happen. The soldiers would not fall behind the arrows shot from behind, and those who fought for the empire would not shed blood and tears."

Xu Feili was the first to shout: "Down with all the elders, Your Majesty is supreme."

All the soldiers shouted again in unison: "Down with all the elders, Your Majesty is supreme."

Li Linyue nodded slightly: "Everyone, the way to serve the empire is actually very simple, and it is to win."

"Everyone, please work together and fight to the end."

"Yes! Your Highness."

After the crowd dispersed, Li Linyue left behind a few core generals.

"Phili, I will trouble you during this time, I must help you to pay attention to the movements of the Marshal's Department, and report any information in time."

Xu Feili is a tall blond man, he showed a charming smile: "Yes, my Highness, for you, I can do anything."

Li Linyue bent her eyes and gave him an approving smile.

Then he said, "Yang, I will leave it to you to thoroughly investigate the traitors and spies."

Yang Jiewei is a steady black-haired man, he said calmly: "I obey, Your Highness, I will not let a fool who endangers the empire go."

Li Linyue nodded slightly, and said: "Xiao Zhizhong, Chang Yuankai, you must decipher the letters and telegrams that Lian Yi has not had time to destroy as soon as possible."

The confidants of the two princesses replied in unison: "Yes, my Highness."

Back in the dormitory, a woman who still had a charming but stern face came, Li Linyue bowed slightly: "Mother."

The woman's expression was not good, "Lingyue, you are going to engage in your gang of smoky things again, be careful that you will not get married in the future!"

Li Linyue knew very well not to argue with her mother about any issues, who would say no to who the first princess wanted to marry? Who dares to say no?

"You're right, Mother, I'm just helping Father as much as I can..."

The woman said sternly, "Do you need your help with your father's affairs? Just don't help."

Li Linyue was reprimanded inexplicably, and was in a bad mood. When she returned to her room, she saw Li Yuchen sitting in front of the computer and typing furiously on the keyboard, and angrily said: "Yuchen! You are not doing your job properly again! The future emperor of the empire, is this how you want to be?"

Li Yuchen shouted: "What do you know, I will mobilize public opinion on the Internet and publish their scandalous things."

Li Linyue raised her eyebrows upside down: "How dare you talk back! Have you finished reading the theory of war?"

"finish watching."

"If he turns to the last page, it will be considered finished." The little princess Li Qingyue ruthlessly pierced him.

Li Linyue was furious, and twisted his ears to drag him away. Li Yuchen hugged the computer, and suddenly wailed: "My post has been deleted again!"

In the middle of the noise, there was a loud noise suddenly, and the whole ground shook.

Li Linyue reacted extremely quickly, pulled Li Yuchen down, hugged her sister, and jumped on him.

The explosion continued, and the huge sound wave shattered all the glass.

It took a long time for the vibration to stop, and Li Yuchen, who was pressed at the bottom, suddenly felt a drop of warm liquid dripping on the back of his hand.

Looking up, I saw a long gash on my sister's face.

"sister!"

Li Linyue got up slowly, dust and glass shards slipped from her body, she glanced at Li Yuchen, she was relieved that there was no injury on her body.

He glanced at the little princess in his arms again, his face was flushed, and his big eyes were flickering with worry.

"The Papal State must be calling." She came to a terrifying conclusion in a childish voice.

"Stay here and don't move." Li Linyue ordered, took a handkerchief and wiped the blood on her face before running outside.

Running out of the castle, I saw that one side of the castle had been blown down, thick smoke was billowing, and the ground was full of scorched black pits and burning flames.

In front of them are all royal guards, and the cold light on their bodies is connected together, making it hard to open your eyes.

In profile are Imperial Marshal Rune Yu and his troops, who are loudly arguing with the Captain of the Royal Guard.

Li Linyue took a step forward. Seeing that it was Her Royal Highness, the royal guards spread out slightly to let her in.

Li Linyue saw the corpses of the attackers. It was a troop of giants. There were at least a hundred of them.

She heard Fu Wenyu shouting angrily not far away.

"This is the Marshal's Department formed by the Supreme Military Department of the Empire. It is responsible for all matters in this war. Everything here is under the command of the Marshal's Department! This is a very serious attack! The Marshal's Department has full authority to take over, and of course the attacker's body must be handled by the Marshal's Department!"

The captain of the royal guards had cold light flowing all over his body, and the strong light even covered his figure, which was the appearance of the biochemical engine of the colonizing primarch running at full power.

He said coldly: "Sorry, I have to wait until His Majesty comes over to make a decision."

Rune Yu shouted angrily: "You are violating the imperial military order! The empire belongs to everyone, not the empire of the emperor alone!"

The captain of the royal guard ignored it.

Fu Wenyu was extremely angry, and said sharply: "You are rebellious!"

With a click, all his troops raised their guns, but the royal guards were unafraid, and no one even took a second look at him.

Soon, the main members of the Marshal's Department were present, and so was my father.

Li Linyue couldn't hear them talking.

After a while, the royal guards moved. They collected all the giants and the remains of the scene, transported them to the station, and escorted Li Linyue back.

Before leaving, Li Linyue heard a fierce quarrel broke out there.

Anxiety gathered in her heart, Li Linyue returned to the bedroom in silence, and hastily dealt with the scars on her face.

The attack was found out on the same day, and it was released by the garrison of the Seventh Army.

The attackers were the newly formed Death Guard troops of the Papal State. They disguised themselves as giant troops of the Imperial Army, passed through the garrison of the Seventh Army, and launched a surprise attack on the headquarters of the Marshal of Xindenburg, intending to behead the Imperial Army.

However, Li Linyue knew very well that the side where the main fort was destroyed was the first side where the imperial officers were located.

The opponent is coming for them.

Moreover, the imperial military order is strict and the order is strict. Does that mean that it can be disguised by pretending?

The commander of the Seventh Army was dismissed for investigation, and a deputy commander of the imperial faction was temporarily appointed as the final solution to the incident.

It is also good news.

But that night, the deputy commander couldn't bear the pressure and committed suicide.

The next day, the Papal State suddenly launched an offensive across the board.

The war broke out early.

The empire reacted quickly and immediately implemented the established plan formulated before the war.

That is: on the western front, use strong fortresses, artillery, trenches, and defensive positions as means to wipe out a large number of the enemy's vital forces.

On the Eastern Front, use advanced weapons, tanks, aircraft, and special forces as means to compress the Papal State's front.

Among them, the Western Front is the top priority.

While defending the Western Front, artillery is the top priority.

The Papal State is not as vast as the Empire, which requires a large number of garrison troops to maintain stability. He mobilized all the forces in the country, with the support of a large number of world forces, and brainwashed them with divine religion, sending nearly a quarter of the young and middle-aged men in the country to the battlefield.

Its combat personnel are more than ten times that of the empire. Zezhou's terrain is long and narrow, with many plains and mountains, and the number of people is fully capable of exerting its power.

These soldiers have only undergone simple training, and their equipment is nothing more than a gun, a vest, and a helmet, and their function is to consume the firepower of the empire.

The powers of the world made a special trip to provide the Papal State with a large amount of anti-biological and chemical warfare preparations, created public opinion internationally, and sent military observers to prevent the empire from using biochemical means to eliminate cannon fodder on a large scale.

Yu Zhongxian also provided the Papal State with a variety of anti-biological and chemical means, specifically targeting the biological and chemical warfare weapons owned by the empire.

But Li Longxing didn't plan to use that thing from the beginning.

The best way to deal with these people is artillery shells, even bullets are not as good as shells, let alone expensive missiles.

He prepared a large number of artillery and heavy artillery on the Western Front early on, and assembled an unprecedented artillery group in human history.

When the artillery group opened fire, the whole earth trembled. On the 200,000-square-kilometer frontline, every inch of land had been bombarded by artillery fire, and every inch of land had been tried to dig trenches. The Papal State was advancing hard with terrible losses. Countless flesh and blood flew across it, and the gunpowder smoke almost formed a dark cloud over Zezhou.

In the first five days of the war, an average of 20 million shells were fired every day.

The stock was gone in five days.

"Has the shell run out?"

Li Longxing couldn't understand that the empire had been frenziedly arming for a long time, with at least 500 million shells in stock, and it was still growing at a rate of 90 million shells every month.

He immediately ordered a thorough investigation, and soon discovered that the Imperial General Logistics Department had handed over the transportation of shells to the central logistics department.

And the middle line logistics was completely returned by Li Longxing.

This is a very insidious move.

If Li Longxing was defeated because of this, it was all his own responsibility.

But receiving is even more impossible. Yu Zhongxian and Lin Yabo can play with more means, and he can't get anything he wants.

what to do?

If the firepower of the artillery is reduced, the casualties of the imperial army will increase, and the defense system with artillery as the core will collapse. The consequences of this are unimaginable.

Li Longxing immediately convened a meeting, intending to change the defensive measures, and at the same time send people back to the Supreme Council to present his interests to the Great Elder.

Li Linyue was also worried about this, but her younger sister Li Qingyue overheard her elder sister's melancholy and said, "Sister, why don't you ask that brother-in-law?"

Lin Wen: "Huh?"
