Blackstone Code Chapter 1124: Changes
While Lynch and Mr. Wardrick discussed the situation in the North, there were a few others elsewhere discussing the battle.
"The Federals have no experience in war, and I believe that even if they were given a month, they would not be able to conquer this position!"
The diplomat of the Gafra Empire is sitting at the table. The high neckline makes him have to keep his face straight when he speaks. If he bows his head, the neckline will make him feel like he is being strangled.
He is not short in stature, which also makes some people think that he is talking with his head raised when looking at him, and his face is full of arrogance that is unique to Gafra nobles.
But there was no objection to what he said.
Everyone knows that the Commonwealths have no experience in wars, and the Marillos have not resisted much in previous battles.
They intensified their resistance a little in the riverside city, and the Commonwealth suffered heavy losses. It is said that one or two thousand people died.
And this time, the resistance they encountered was more intense and tenacious.
Some news has been gathered through various channels. The warlords of Marillo have united and decided to give the Federals a good look. They assembled 26,000 people, plus some highly rewarded local people who stayed at home to resist Resident assistance.
About 35,000 to 40,000 people in the whole small town formed a terrible defensive position, which is the most common scene in war.
Assemble forces that have an advantage over the attackers, deploy defenses in the city, and tear through these defenses, you must pay a heavy price.
Everyone has nothing to refute this, it's the truth!
If the Army of the Commonwealth also appears... incompetent, people's vigilance against the Commonwealth will be lowered, and even some diplomatic strategies will be changed.
Without a strong army, the aggression of concrete facts will never be completed. The indiscriminate bombing of ports will not have any impact on national sovereignty. Only the continuous encroachment of the army can force a country to die.
People are in a light mood, guessing how long it will take for the Confederates to fix the problems they're traveling through.
While talking, someone talked about the downed plane.
"I've heard that some people have experimented with the fact that low-flying planes can be shot down with machine guns. The myth of invincible planes should come to an end."
The person who said this seemed a little emotional, and people's attention was drawn to the topic.
Every country is crazy about the purpose of getting the plane, because after the plane was unveiled, there was a "aircraft invincibility theory".
The core of this argument is that the plane is flying in the sky, and people on the ground can't cause any substantial damage to the plane in the sky, which means that the plane is invincible until it can't effectively damage the plane.
They can run to the enemy's head one after another to bomb, or observe, and people on the ground have no way to do anything about the planes in the sky.
This argument was born when everyone didn't get the plane, they didn't know the performance of the plane, they didn't know the maximum flight altitude, the maximum flight speed, everything was unknown.
There will always be people who blindly fear something powerful that they don't understand, and blow it away.
Now, it's time for this argument to end.
The plane was shot down by a group of warlords, which also means that countries with complete industries can also shoot down the plane.
Gavra's diplomat also said this at the right time, "I heard that it was made by an anti-aircraft cannon developed by a company in a small country."
People became more enthusiastic, and some even advocated to stop buying Lynch's planes and buy those anti-aircraft cannons.
They won't necessarily invade another country's territory, but someone might invade them.
If there is a massive deployment of anti-aircraft guns, at least defensively, they have nothing to worry about.
At this time, people remembered that Lynch recently delivered a shipment, and the diplomat who got the plane was also here, and the diplomat Gavra said jokingly, "Why don't you bring out some planes? , let's go get some anti-aircraft guns, give it a try?"
The idea is fascinating, but the diplomat who bought the plane doesn't seem to think so.
The money, they really paid, it makes no sense for them to bear the loss, right?
The diplomat's refusal made Gavra's diplomat suggest like a joke, "In fact, we all know that we will make similar attempts when we get the plane."
"Then why don't we fix it all at once?"
"If the anti-aircraft guns can really knock the plane down, or if the plane is not destroyed, but the fuselage is damaged, we will bear these costs together."
"This way we get the results we want and reduce the cost, you can think about it..."
This proposal is not bad, and it is true. Almost everyone agreed for a while.
With so many people agreeing, if the diplomat of the country who got the plane first disagreed, he would offend too many people, and in the end he had to agree to this proposal.
They started contacting the manufacturers of the anti-aircraft guns while looking for a place to test them.
A few days passed quickly.
Especially when people get caught up in the hustle and bustle, they realize that time flies really fast, and it gets dark before anything can be done.
Not at all like the carefree childhood, the length of each day seems to be as long as a century.
The war on the northern front continues, and the hard-line Marillos seem unwilling to make further concessions this time around.
Especially after they destroyed a plane, this attitude got tougher.
Even at this time their term for the "Invasion" of the Federals has changed, they no longer talk about it being a "Invasion of the Federals", but rather a "Blackstone Security Invasion".
Before they said that these were "Federal invasions", they were seeking psychological comfort, not because we didn't resist, but because we really couldn't beat the Federals.
At the same time, this can also win the sympathy of the international community. We were invaded by the Federals. You should condemn them!
But the situation is a little different now. The warlords feel that they may not be able to beat the Federals. If they continue to emphasize that the invaders are "Federal" at this time, it is very likely to cause the dissatisfaction of the federal officials.
They don't really think that the federal military is not their opponent, that would be too arrogant.
So they are now starting to emphasize that it is private armed companies that are invading, so that the conflict will stay between the warlords and the federal companies and will not spread.
At the same time, even if a large number of federal soldiers are eliminated, they are only armed employees of private companies, and have nothing to do with the federal military and federal soldiers.
This kind of gimmick also makes people see the idea of the warlords, they want to eliminate this part of the blackstone security company employees in Mariro, and even Sanchez is under some pressure.
Some of the warlords are building up and there is a possibility of an attack on the Sanchez line.
The day's high-intensity attack and defense ended at night, and the Federals retreated again.
The commanders are still discussing the next play, and it's a headache.
The headache is that the resistance in the city is very strong. Even if they can take down part of the block, it is difficult to use this part of the block to continue to expand the occupation area inward.
There are too many people here, several times, ten times more than them. When they sleep at night, a new batch of Marillos will attack.
This also means that if they want to hold the place they are occupying, they will have to maintain a high-intensity confrontation situation 24 hours a day.
Personnel are not rested, their mental state is poor, and morale is low.
Until the weapons they can shoot down the plane are not solved, the rear said that the bomber will not be on the mission again for the time being. Of course, a new batch of bombers is being transferred. It has been a few days. I don't know if they are coming.
"If we want to cut in, we have to find a suitable place to fortify..."
A commander who came from the Amelia battlefield gave his opinion, "It doesn't help our overall process in the slightest, except for the fact that people are constantly injured and killed."
"There is another way, which is to use special bombs. Mr. Lynch has authorized us to use them when necessary. Now is a good time."
After the last use of special ammunition, there were some voices in the international community, accusing Blackstone Security Company of being anti-human and anti-social, and asking them not to use any special ammunition.
The federal government also said in private that it is better not to use it if it can be used. Too bad reputation is not good for the international image of the federal government.
And everyone has their own thoughts. Whoever agrees to play special bombs will be responsible if there is any problem in the future, so even if Lynch agrees to play special bombs, not many people will be responsible for this matter. .
As soon as the commander said it, everyone else looked at him, meaning it was obvious, you propose, you are responsible.
The commander was silent for a while ~IndoMTL.com~ I just suggested. "
Actually, they are not sure whether the company can keep them if the international public opinion and international pressure are too great.
That's one reason why they don't use special rounds.
If the company can't keep them, it's even less likely that the Department of Defense will intervene, and they'll be really stinky.
I will lose my job, and my family may be affected. After all, anyone who is titled "Butcher" or "Executioner" will be cast aside by the whole society.
Besides, the Commonwealth is a very strange society, and the people do not have a clear concept of the state in the process of pursuing excessive freedom.
They don't think that someone must be a national hero for doing certain things, but they think like foreigners that this is a **** executioner!
There will even be strikes and marches as a result, roaring in the streets holding placards that read "Severely Punish the Executioners".
This is the freedom of opinion for the Commonwealth, and their freedom of thought!
