Chapter 1067: Hard Times
The enemy's firepower attack made these orcs feel helpless.
The vehicle was right in front of them, but they were powerless to fight back.
Life is right in front of us, but death is only one step away.
The orcs were suppressed by the vehicles.
On the other side, the soldiers of the 1st Armored Division were being transferred in infantry fighting vehicles.
Guderian planned to break out of the encirclement and conduct large-scale mobile warfare.
Gudry was not clear about the degree of mechanization of the Orks, but he knew that the Wehrmacht's own degree of mechanization was high enough.
It would be no problem to lead the entire division out of the encirclement.
Guderian rushed all the way and jumped out of the encirclement with the 1st Armored Division.
And they broke through from three directions, making it impossible for the orcs to determine the main attack direction and intentions of the National Defense Army.
The 1st Armored Division was killing fiercely, and the other armored divisions were also not ambiguous.
In the direction of the 2nd Armored Division's advance.
After a night of fighting, three armored divisions destroyed the Ork front line.
The Orcs' line-filling division could not withstand the attack from the armored division.
Most importantly, the air force struck at the rear of the orcs...
Three hours ago, 24 Tu-95s flew directly to the northern region of the Orc Empire.
Then, based on the information obtained by the Air Force reconnaissance aircraft, precision bombing began according to the coordinates given by the Air Force Command.
Orc Empire City.
Inside a house, an orc woman was comforting her three-year-old child.
The woman lives with her child, while her husband is fighting on the front line.
However, her husband was not a low-level soldier, but an officer.
Otherwise, the woman would not live in this three-story building.
Women actually don't want their husbands to be high-ranking officials.
She just wanted her husband to be safe.
But forced by life, she had to accept this reality.
Bachmut began to improve the lives of the lower classes.
But the war continued, oppressing everyone in the Orc Empire.
The Orc Empire, like other defeated nations, is using all its strength to fight against Dayan.
The last time the Orc Empire faced the Qingchi Kingdom, its war potential was almost exhausted.
Being heavily in debt is the least of it. There is inflation and the lower-class orcs have no food to eat.
The endless accumulation of these terrifying characteristics has made the Orc Empire shaky.
In order to starve to death, the lower class people either choose to enter blood-sucking factories or join the army.
In the eyes of orcs, armies and factories are the same, both are deadly.
The factory works 14 hours a day, and the environment in the production workshop is very poor. Working there is like chronic suicide.
The same is true for the army. They can get enough food to eat, but most of the hungry orcs who join the army will be stuffed into the filling-line division.
The orcs who are not well fed have obviously worse physical fitness. Where else can they go except to fill in the line division?
Even if you get in, you can only have a full meal.
Military pay? Military pay is still needed in this situation?
You are making money from the national crisis!
As the commander said this, he embezzled all the military pay given by Bachmut.
Officers can also get a share.
That is why women can barely survive with their children in this chaotic world.
Although it's a bit tiring, it's better than committing suicide in a factory.
But the woman felt uneasy tonight and her heart was beating fast.
The woman tossed and turned, unable to sleep. She looked at the child who was sleeping beside her with snot bubbles in his nose, and smiled.
Then he gently stood up, walked to a painting, carefully lifted up the painting, revealing a secret compartment inside.
The woman took out a small box from inside and opened it. Several gold coins sparkled in the moonlight.
The woman touched the gold coins with a serious look on her face.
Because prices have skyrocketed recently, and my child is still growing, expenses are getting higher and higher.
These few gold coins won't last long...
But her husband’s military pay had never been sent.
The woman became more and more anxious, but she couldn't show anything in front of her child.
Although her child is only three years old, he is very smart and can see his mother's joys and sorrows.
If a woman is a little sad, the child will also be sad.
So women pretend to be strong during the day, hoping that their children will not worry about them.
But looking at the few gold coins left in the box, given the current prices in the Orc Empire.
These gold coins can't buy much food.
Some people may ask, why not buy food from other countries?
Is there a possibility that the food you bought will be intercepted at the border before it is shipped into the country?
Why would you be intercepted? Not only would your food be gone, but your money would also be gone.
Because the border guards will frame you for treason.
This way they can legally obtain all your assets!
Bachmut wanted to take care of these things, but he was powerless.
Almost all the troops in his hands were sent to the front line. How could Bachmut have any troops left to take care of these things?
Just leave it to fate!
The woman looked at her child and thought about her husband who hadn't sent money home for three months.
And there wasn't even a letter...
The woman seemed to have guessed her husband's fate, but she was unwilling to admit it.
Death is cruel. In fact, everyone knows about death, but it is difficult to acknowledge death.
Just as the woman was struggling, the sound of an engine roaring suddenly came from the sky above her head.
Just as the woman was about to move closer to the window to see what was happening, she heard a whistling sound of something falling.
The next second, the woman watched helplessly as a violent explosion occurred in the factory in the distance.
In an instant, a large number of factories in the city were destroyed.
The window in front of the woman was also shattered by the gust of wind, but fortunately the woman was not injured.
But the child was awakened by the explosion and started crying.
The woman hurriedly got up from the ground and went to comfort the child.
At the same time, he stared blankly at the city outside the window where flames were rising to the sky.
Is it safe here?
The woman shook her head. She didn’t know…
Where else could she go? Even here was unsafe, what was she going to do with the child alone...
The woman looked confused.
One night passed, and the northern region of the Orc Empire suffered a devastating blow.
Almost 40% of the factories were directly destroyed, and another 20% were affected.
The entire Orc Empire lost half of its industry in one night.
This was a heavy blow to Bachmut.
But it was a bigger blow to the front line...
Although Bachmut ordered to block the information and prevent the news from reaching the front line and affecting the morale of the army.
But the orc soldiers saw the map 95 flying back overhead, and even the dumbest person could understand what was happening behind them...
The soldiers on the front line eventually learned of the bombing in the rear, and their morale plummeted instantly. Why did they fight to the death?
(Good afternoon(T^T))
