379 I Will Initiate Mass Projection
The standard for judging a hero was not to see his bragging and words.
He could not only see the victory and contributions he had made under the advantageous conditions.
Instead, he had to make a choice on account of the disadvantage, danger, and even desperate situation.
When people were indifferent and commented, they were always reasonable and moral. However, when things really fell on their heads, ugliness, and selfishness were revealed.
!!
Sometimes, it was not noble, reasonable, or righteous.
It was just that he did not have a choice.
Therefore, Sylvan Keller was the famous Lord of Dawn Light. He was an ever-victorious general trusted by the council and admired by the soldiers. He was indomitable. He was smart and wise. He was a respected great military general and commander. He cherished the lives of soldiers and valued honor above life. He was the noblest elf. He was loving, firm, brave, and generous. He was the most trustworthy general in everyone’s hearts.
All this honor, title, and reputation was only because he did not face a true choice.
The former commander of the Dusk Legion, Therlandron, was also the rising star of the military world before he faced a choice. He was a famous young general. Then, he died under Valentine City.
In order to prevent innocent soldiers from dying for nothing under the wishes of the important figures, in order to send Kang De’s deterrence and suggestion back to his motherland completely, he chose to surrender. Moreover, he turned into a firm anti-war faction overnight and tried his best to stop the war from continuing, becoming a despised coward and traitor.
Facing a similar choice, Sylvan Keller, who was more famous, stronger, and responsible than Therlandron, chose to push the lives of more than a hundred thousand expeditionary army soldiers and the safety of the entire country to the gambling table to bet on the possibility of survival in the face of death to prevent himself from being treated as an abandoned pawn by the council and losing everything.
Only at the most critical and dangerous moment could one determine if a hero was a hero.
When obsession and unwillingness blinded his eyes, morality quickly slid to the side of choice. Some elves could give up their honor for the lives of innocent soldiers and the interests of their motherland, and some elves could abandon these for their honor and interests.
Since they would definitely be treated as targets by Kang De to vent his anger and slaughter, why not let them play a greater role before they died?
If they could increase the success rate of their operation because of this, their sacrifice would be valuable!
They would be remembered!
Great!
All the gods were happy about this!
This thought dominated his mind, and the plan became even more radical and decisive. With the commander pushing and taking responsibility, the staff officers and officers also chose to be silent. Everyone knew that this was a dilemma. Everyone knew that the glorious elf army had been forced to a terrifying blind spot.
—If you object, what better idea do you have?
—If you object, can you shoulder this unprecedented humiliation and responsibility?
Since the commander said that he would bear all the consequences, let’s do this.
After half an hour of the news of Goethe urging them to surrender, after feigning civility, pretending to bargain and gather the soldiers, the elves attacked again.
The entire army moved out.
There was no command system or combat system to speak of. Battle beasts, supply carts, and logistics personnel hid among the regular troops and launched an attack on the tall city wall of Red Maple City.
The arrangement of doing their best for half an hour was effective. The extremely high tactical literacy of the elf army made this desperate charge not completely chaotic. They maintained their marching posture, but every array was extremely separated from the other troops. The number of soldiers in the array was neither too many nor too few. They roared and charged under the desolate horn, stimulating the courage in their hearts with roars.
Their only mission was to cover.
They used their lives to cover the attack power of the essence.
They would consume Kang De’s alchemical weapons.
They were urged to rush towards the city wall.
Even if this was an order that meant death, the soldiers still followed it without hesitation, even if they had seen the silver wing sweep over not long ago and start an efficient and unstoppable massacre.
“Speed up! Speed up! Speed up!”
The officers roared fanatically and urged the soldiers to rush towards the city wall of Red Maple City like fearless soldiers. “When we reach the bottom of the city wall, the enemy won’t dare to use the alchemical bombs! If we rush into the city, the enemy will be helpless! This is the only hope of survival! Charge! Charge! Charge!”
Of course, that earth-shattering and extremely powerful alchemical bomb could not be used beside the city wall of Red Maple City, because there were still guards on the city wall, let alone in the city, because there were a large number of commoners.
However, this meant that the invincible and glorious Royal Army was already using and even kidnapping the lives of civilians in exchange for a chance to win and survive.
This had never happened in thousands of years.
However, the ordinary soldiers who were suppressing the uneasiness and fear in their hearts and roaring to charge did not have the time to think carefully about this problem. The high elves hidden in the pack beast team and ordinary soldiers deliberately ignored it. They were only following Commander Sylvan Keller, regardless of right or wrong.
This was because they did not know any other way.
Therefore, death descended from the sky.
The joint attack ammunition weighing nearly a ton fell from the sky, raising roaring dust and huge flames. With a single strike, it razed an entire elf army. Rolling air waves blew the flags of the nearby army and shocked the hearts of the elves, but the officers were still shouting and roaring.
“Six! Do you see that?! It can only bring six such alchemical bombs!”
“As long as I rush under the city, I can survive! I can survive!”
A series of roars and explosions in the sky were the loud sounds of that terrifying alchemical weapon diving down. Every time he heard this sound, it meant that death would descend from the sky.
Apart from the huge alchemical bomb, there was also lightning that streaked across like lightning that could cut a solid military formation into pieces. As the elf army continued to advance, merciless attacks blasted down. The elf army that was charging in vain was erased one after another. Only a small number of broken limbs and blood flew out and fell, landing on the faces, heads, and arms of the soldiers who continued to charge nearby.
Red Maple City’s long-range spell attacks continuously flew out of the city.
There was also the attack of the war machine and the arrow formation.
The silver wings from the sky shuttled back and forth on the battlefield, throwing down the invitation to death.
However, this was not enough to stop the full attack of the elves. These crazy guys only had eyes for the city wall, as if as long as they reached it, they would win.
They roared wildly.
They roared crazily.
The strongest army in the world, the number one in the world, the leader and pioneer of advanced combat tactics, and the powerful army of the Twilight Dynasty were completely lawless and tactical at this moment. They were like a group of lunatics who had lost their minds.
Amidst the flames, explosions, death, and blood, they roared and charged.
They stepped on the drum of death and the corpses of their comrades.
War turned from elegance to cruelty, from cruelty to madness.
...
Looking down from the sky, the elves were like dense ants as they rushed toward Red Maple City in chaos and order. Death could not stop their footsteps, and deterrence could not complete deterrence. These elves seemed to have locked onto their morale, or rather, the threshold of collapse had not been reached.
However, two rounds of the bombing had already passed.
Kang De’s expression was as calm as water as Horus’s voice sounded in his ear.
“Father, there might not be enough bombs. The enemy’s array is extremely scattered. They’re learning very quickly.”
The entire elf army pressed forward and surrounded the city on all sides. Apart from the elite forces of the various departments who had launched a surprise attack a day ago, a large number of reinforcements rushed over from the surrounding important towns in a day. There was a huge number and they had learned to disperse to an open area. There was also spell resistance and they divided more than ten attack areas. They also used such a zombie-like F2A method. In this situation, the weapons and ammunition in Kang De’s hand were indeed not enough.
He could destroy the enemy’s long-range firepower position, defeat the arrow formation cluster and the magic device position until they could not raise their heads, and shatter the tactical intentions of any powerful army, but he could not kill the entire elf army of more than a hundred thousand, because defeat was one thing, but annihilation was another.
“Are they crazy?!”
Kang De’s tone was filled with shock, anger, and awe.
No matter how he calculated, he did not expect the elves to be so stubborn.
He had thought that under the overwhelming air advantage and strategic deterrence, the elf commander knew the severity and would make the right choice.
However, he had already unknowingly fallen into a certain misunderstanding.
...
Not all elves were like the captain and adjutant of the Wayne Wings.
Not all the elves were like Therlandron of the Dusk Legion.
“There must be logic in this unexpected action. However, Father, now is not the time to talk about this. It has already happened. We have to deal with it.”
His iron son’s voice made Kang De calm down.
He asked, “Is it not enough with what I obtained from the French?”
“It’s not enough. The bombs obtained from the secret storage of the French military base are suitable for closed environments. Their power in the open is not as good as imagined. Coupled with what the Russians provided, it’s not enough.”
Kang De’s eyes flickered, “…We can continue to refresh.”
There was no need to think about the respawn at the airport. The air strike group could complete the cleanup in a few minutes. At this moment, they must have already run away without a trace. That wave of replication at the airport was only a one-time deal. Replicating again would only waste time and resources, but the howitzers, shells, and ammunition provided by Russia were still at the resources station…
“I have to remind you, Father. Firstly, we don’t have so many puppets to operate the replicated howitzer. Secondly, even if we modify all the shells into bombs, if we want to defeat an enemy of this scale and battlefield area, we have to replicate it extremely many times. The efficiency… is very poor.”
“Instead of wasting precious time to replicate the cannonball, it’s better to make a more efficient choice.”
Horus was silent for a moment before continuing, “You know what I’m talking about.”
Kang De was also silent.
Then, he said calmly, “Yes, I know.”
After a while, he continued, “It’s not that easy to end the war, right?”
“…So, Father?”
“I want to warn them one last time.”
“As you wish.”
The exploding dragon roar resounded in the sky again and swept past the sky of the crazily advancing elf army.
The elf soldiers who could not help but panic did not wait for death to descend, but they heard a voice from the sky, “The soldiers of the Twilight Dynasty, I’ll warn you one last time. If you continue forward, I’ll shoot a forbidden curse. Repeat, I’ll shoot a forbidden curse. Your bravery and sacrifice are meaningless. Not only will they make you lose your lives, but they’ll also involve the two countries in an even greater war…”
“—He’s bluffing! He must not have many bombs left!”
Death and blood made the soldiers crazy. Encouraged by the even crazier officers, emotions were easily guided and used, “We will never surrender! We can’t bend the knee to evil! We’ll show them the pride and dignity of the elves! Even if we die today! Our motherland will remember!”
“—For the Empress!”
Roaring and fanatical, the ultimatum only welcomed a crazy attack.
The war drew a gully, and hatred caused division.
Who would believe the words of the enemy?
Under the attack of arrows and spells, the fighter plane returned to the sky. At this moment, Horus said, “Father, look, in the north of the city… there are already elves approaching the city wall!”
Due to the limited ammunition, Kang De could only prioritize attacking the large attack group. The small-scale targets were handed to the city wall guards. This was the attack plan he had discussed with the Grand Duke earlier. However, at this moment, his iron son quickly added, “The intensity of the attack is wrong!”
Kang De looked up and saw a blazing light erupt on the city wall. The light of magic, the explosion of elements, and the expert’s figure was like an unsheathed sword that broke through the defense line of the garrison like a hot knife through butter.
They rushed into the city.
The vector nozzle accelerated and rushed towards the broken war zone. Through the visor scan, he could see the enemy running quickly on the streets of the city. The autocannon roared and swept. Horus swept low and deformed with a clang. He landed with a bang and transformed into a mecha combat posture, setting up four double autocannons.
However, in the next moment, a sharp edge rushed out of the houses on both sides of the street.
The Transformer blocked with his shield and was attacked by more than ten elf experts. His battle shield was shattered, and his huge body flew back. Spells and enchanted heavy arrows followed.
The vector vent operated with all its might and pushed its steel body into the sky to dodge this follow-up attack. The angry Horus swept down. Those extremely fast elf warriors rushed into the nearby houses.
The quagmire of the security war was indeed the nightmare of the modern army.
“Something’s wrong!”
His iron son transformed back into his fighter form, “Father, these elves are surprisingly powerful! They’re definitely not at the level of ordinary elves! This should be their goal!”
Kang De had already woken up.
Before he could speak, the Grand Duke’s voice sounded from the communicator, “Kang De!”
“…As you can see, they hide in the houses and houses and use the streets and buildings as cover. I’m not good at close combat. There’s nothing good to do with them. I can only rely on you to think of a way.”
Kang De said, “The enemy is using an ordinary army as cover. Selecting elites to rush into the city is indeed a gamble to survive. I can’t waste any more time. If the elf army outside attacks the city, the advantage, and situation will be completely ruined… Grand Duke, every one of us has to make a choice.”
His tone was very calm and divided, not giving the Grand Duke a chance to speak.
“—Wait! Kang De! You don’t have to do this! Listen to me, we can propose peace…”
“If the army outside attacks, there won’t even be a chance to negotiate.”
Kang De took a deep breath.
“Therefore, I’ll activate mass projection.”
“—Kang De!”
“Let history judge the consequences of today’s matter.”
Kang De said, “What I have to do now is not let you become history.”
The fighter plane climbed up, looked up, accelerated, and roared into the sky. In dozens of seconds, it rose ten thousand meters into the air. The rolling dragon’s roar resounded through the world. Be it the elf soldiers in Red Maple City or outside the city, all the pitiful living beings rolling and floating in the war furnace looked at all of this.
They were deep in thought.
“Commander! Kang De wants to…”
The adjutant beside Sylvan Keller cried out.
“You’re in Red Maple City! Could it be that he can throw a forbidden curse into this city?”
“But the soldiers outside the city…”
“This will use up a forbidden curse! Twilight will remember their contributions! They’ll also remember us! If you want to do anything, continue to kill the enemy! Charge! Capture the hostage! Everyone has to abide by their duty!”
Madness spread in and outside the city.
The soldiers outside the city also thought of the previous ultimatum.
He was about to shoot a forbidden spell.
An unprecedented panic made many elves calm down.
No matter what… Valentine’s defeat was the truth.
Therefore, was the forbidden curse… coming?
Under Kang De’s indiscriminate bombardment, under the spur of death and madness, in the bloody and cruel battlefield, even tenacious elf warriors had times when they collapsed.
In particular, death was about to arrive slowly and fatally. Under the city wall might be the safest haven. The soldiers who were still far from the city wall roared and accelerated. The elves who were no longer far from the city wall also accelerated. The chaotic battlefield was no longer filled with elegant elves. Poor lunatics, the end was coming…
Kang De had already returned to the white fog world.
Through spatial teleportation, he left the African airport and arrived at the domestic area.
Familiar district, familiar city.
Kang De stood on the street in silence.
Ending the war was never easy. There had to be a price.
For example, more peanut butter.
Horus came to his father’s side and tried to liven up the atmosphere. “Father, what should we throw this time?”
The mass projection of Valentine’s battle was to teleport large roads, heavy vehicles, and other large and small objects through two-way teleportation. He relied on gravity to continuously accelerate, gather terrifying power, and bomb.
He sized up the cars on the street to see if there was anything more explosive.
Kang De stretched out his hand.
It resonated with the white fog world and responded.
The power obtained from Tacitus resonated with the white fog world.
The power of the Law of Space.
Distorting space and changing concepts.
In an instant, the world reversed, and the concept of top and bottom reversed. The world in front of him twisted from then on. In the bustling business district, tall buildings faced down like fruits on a grapevine.
