Chapter 1429: Battle of Nice
The Wehrmacht did not launch its attack in the early morning because the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.
The capital of the Kingdom of Anis is located just to the east.
If they launched their attack in the early morning or at dawn, they would be met head-on by the sunlight coming in from the east.
Sometimes the impact of weather needs to be taken into consideration.
The staff had predicted all this long ago, so they planned to launch the attack in the morning or around noon, and they needed to wait for the weather to change.
However, hard work pays off, the mercenary guards originally planned to wait until noon to launch the attack, but just after 9 o'clock in the morning, the sky was filled with dark clouds, and the entire sky was covered by dark clouds.
It gives people an extremely depressing feeling.
The Wehrmacht saw the weather change and immediately prepared its troops to launch an attack.
The Wehrmacht Headquarters ordered the Air Force to send fighter jets to launch a fire attack.
Provide fire support to the mercenaries and guards on the front line to suppress the enemy forces in the city.
Mercenaries and guards are gathering.
The air force base in North Wind Port is busy again.
They were busy from last night till the early morning.
After finally completing the bombing mission, they received another order to attack before they had time to catch up on some sleep.
However, this time the attackers were not bomber pilots, but pilots of a large number of attack aircraft.
One after another, Warthogs took off from the air force base and flew towards the Kingdom of Nice.
The Warthogs did not fly directly to the capital of the Kingdom of Nice. They also needed to refuel at a temporary air force base on the border of the Western French Empire and then fly directly to the capital of the Kingdom of Nice.
In order to capture the Kingdom of Nice, the National Defense Forces built a number of temporary air force bases and temporary supply centers in the eastern border areas of the Western French Empire.
The purpose was to ensure that the army was fully operational and to easily capture the Kingdom of Nice.
Leopold was originally leading the common people to repair the fortifications, but before they had been working for long, something serious happened.
Because Leopold saw the dark clouds in the sky, he saw that the sun was covered by the clouds.
The battle-hardened Leopold soon realized that something was wrong.
"Notify all units to prepare for battle. The Wehrmacht will launch an attack soon."
The subordinates didn't understand what was happening for a moment, but since their superior had spoken, they couldn't refuse.
The officers then immediately began to notify their men to prepare for battle.
But most people did not believe that the Wehrmacht would launch an attack now.
After all, they were attacking the capital all night yesterday. The Wehrmacht are also human beings, so they also need to rest, right?
The Air Force can't continue to carry out combat missions, so they just need to stop the Army!
What a genius I am!
After Leopold's reminder, his men made corresponding defensive preparations.
Then they continued to repair the fortifications.
Soon it will be noon.
After a morning of rescue work, part of the outer city's fortifications were salvaged, but another part was directly flattened by the National Defense Forces.
What made Leopold most distressed was that the Wehrmacht blew up these fortifications, all of which were important fortifications!
This is almost the same as opening the fire. Why is the Wehrmacht always able to find their most valuable defensive locations?
Leopold began to doubt his life.
But before they could have a bite of their hot lunch, the roar of the plane sounded again.
Leopold hurriedly ordered his soldiers to take shelter, but he only saw dozens of fighter planes flying at a very low altitude.
Then he saw a flash of fire under the fighter planes, and then a large number of soldiers in front of him were instantly turned into pieces.
It was not until the planes were about to fly over his head that Leopold heard the sound of machine gun fire.
What exactly are these fighter jets?
Leopold swallowed hard because he saw with his own eyes a fighter plane shredding a house into pieces!
The house turned directly into ruins!
Did the fighter jet just use a machine gun? But a machine gun doesn't have such lethality...
Leopold was in a state of distress.
The mercenaries and guards who were preparing to attack were extremely happy.
The air force support told them that the Wehrmacht headquarters was watching everything they did.
It even means that the leader is watching this war.
The soldiers were eager to try, as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
As the machine gun licked the ground, the mercenaries fired the first shot of the attack.
They gathered all their forces, about 6 men, and launched an attack from three directions.
They gave up the east, and the total number of troops in the north and south was only 1.
All 5 people were assembled in the west, with the goal of concentrating their numerical advantage to capture the capital.
Leopold apparently guessed the mercenary commander's plan.
How about you concentrate your superior forces? As long as my guerrillas are active enough, they will slow down your attack.
The mercenary didn't say much and directly ordered the artillery to fire.
Today, the mercenary army commander ordered that all artillery shells be sufficient, and there is only one mission, which is to blow up the city in front of us...
Leopold cheered as he watched the mercenaries attacking from the west gate with great momentum.
Because he made the right bet, as there were 8 soldiers defending the outer city area.
Therefore, the mercenaries can attack in very few directions, and they are basically fixed.
The places where these 8 soldiers of the Kingdom of Nice are stationed are basically safe areas.
There were no mines or barbed wire horse traps nearby.
This puts a lot of pressure on the mercenaries.
If they wanted to launch an attack from the direction of the Nice Kingdom soldiers, they would inevitably have to engage in a head-on confrontation with the soldiers.
But if you don't fight the soldiers head-on, you'll have to walk through a minefield...
The mercenary soldiers were in a dilemma for a moment.
The army that had just started was blocked by a minefield.
The two commanders of the Guards Division were furious when they saw this.
Are you so scared by just a few minefields?
And what's wrong with the garrison area? Who told you that you can't fight in the garrison area?
The commander of the Guards Division directly performed long-range micro-manipulation.
He ordered the artillery of the two Guards divisions to immediately begin clearing the ground with artillery fire.
Use artillery shells to flatten all the horse traps and mines.
The mercenaries were forced to retreat because of the minefield.
It’s not that they haven’t sent soldiers to clear mines, but just after the soldiers put on their protective suits and took a few steps outside, they were ruthlessly attacked by soldiers from the Kingdom of Nice.
Fortunately, the soldier was lucky and survived.
This also became an excuse for the Wehrmacht to go all out...
(Good night, I’m so sleepy)
