Chapter 1392 Rushing to Death



Chapter 1392 Rushing to Death

The goblin army headed directly north.

After defeating the fleeing army, their speed increased again.

It seemed as if they were not afraid of the enemies in the north at all.

The National Defense Forces in the north were shocked when they saw this.

People say that your army is rushing to defend the country.

But here, the goblin army is simply rushing to die...

They didn't even prepare any air defense measures and just rushed north with their troops.

All air defense relies on the anti-aircraft weapons they carry.

The Wehrmacht was not in a hurry to attack them halfway while they were marching.

Instead, I chose to watch it all silently.

When they were less than 30km away from the Wehrmacht, the Wehrmacht's air force observers found that these goblin troops were still relatively spirited.

The Wehrmacht frontline commander directly ordered the entire army to retreat 100km.

Yes, you heard it right. The Wehrmacht, which had a huge advantage, actually chose to retreat on its own initiative.

This puzzled many soldiers.

The commander has his own considerations.

There are basically no valuable targets in the more than 100-kilometer area they occupy. Most of it is an oasis and there is even a part of a swamp.

They could neither provide them with cover nor build defensive fortifications.

After careful consideration, the commander decided to order the infantry to retreat.

For these vehicle guys, it only takes less than two hours for them to get back to this land.

But for goblins, 100km will tire them to death...

The reason for doing this is that the goblin army has assembled more than 120 million troops.

And they launched an attack in six directions.

Although these 120 million troops are just a bunch of useless people, given their numbers, it is impossible for the National Defense Forces to take on all of them in one go.

How does that saying go? Even if there are 120 million pigs, it is impossible to catch them all in one day...

So the commander decided to lead the troops to evacuate.

The Wehrmacht quickly packed their bags and evacuated at the speed of light.

The goblin army knew they were about to reach the front line, so the officers ordered them to advance quickly on foot.

Because they were afraid that the Wehrmacht's missile strikes would destroy their mechas.

Their mechas should be used as ace troops and can only be taken out at critical moments!

However, the reality is that their elite troops did not have any chance to show themselves at all.

Even if they leave the mecha troops behind, the Wehrmacht's missiles can still fly from a distance and hit the target accurately.

Later they learned their lesson and divided their mecha troops into a large number of small groups.

And in cooperation with other troops, they slowly moved towards the area occupied by the National Defense Forces.

When they arrived at the designated contact point, they did not see any Wehrmacht soldiers at all.

They even doubted their lives at one point, thinking that they had not reached the front line.

It was only later that they discovered traces of the Wehrmacht making fire and cooking.

Only then did they realize that the Wehrmacht had already withdrawn.

Some of the veterans looked heavy-hearted, because although they were very panicked when they saw the traces of cooking fires, they found that the tire tracks of the vehicles were very neat.

To be precise, the Wehrmacht withdrew on its own initiative.

This made these veterans very scared.

What they feared was not that the Wehrmacht would flee in a hurry.

But what is prepared is to run away...

But the young officers don't think so.

Most of them were supported by chaebols.

This means that they are just ordinary people, just like most people.

There are even some mediocre ones.

And these mediocre people jumped out and spoke.

They, the goblins, have won a great victory! The despicable Wehrmacht has been scared away by them!

The goblin civilization is invincible!

These mediocre young officers were in a frenzy.

But those experienced officers looked calm.

Most of them participated in the military operations to suppress the grassroots rebel forces.

So they naturally know that many times what seems to be a great victory on the surface has actually fallen into the enemy's pocket.

The enemy used a false retreat to weave a big pocket, waiting for them to fall into it.

However, most of these military officers are pragmatists and it is basically difficult for them to get along with the chaebols.

Those who truly control the military are the high-ranking officials of the chaebols.

They can only be regarded as advocates of some suggestions.

They expressed their thoughts to the high-ranking chaebol officials who commanded the army and asked them to be on high alert.

But in fact, the chaebols have also considered this, but they have no way to do anything about it.

The goblin leader needs a victory, and the chaebol also needs a victory.

The voices within the seven major chaebols are not unified, and they have their own ideas.

The most typical example is that some chaebols want to fight the war to the end, but some other chaebols want to end it.

There are also some chaebols who want a decent peace talk.

The chaebols are not united, let alone those who control the military.

They themselves have their own opinions, especially after they take control of the army.

In their hearts, they will no longer think about obeying the orders of their family.

After all, you have the people and guns you need.

So what are they afraid of?

So now the entire goblin civilization is very abstract.

Most of the high-ranking chaebol officials chose to spread the news of this victory and sent troops to pursue the Wehrmacht.

Only a small number of commanders chose to remain silent and did not order their troops to continue the pursuit. Instead, they chose to build a defense line on the spot. However, it was not easy for them to directly refuse other chaebol commanders.

So we decisively decided to send out some cannon fodder to follow these people who were seeking their death.

Good words can't persuade a damn ghost.

What's more, they have already reminded the chaebol commanders who were blinded by victory.

The Wehrmacht was surprised by the divisions among the goblins.

After all, in their eyes, goblins should have the final say.

But now it has split into several different voices.

This took them by surprise.

But it was just an accident.

Whether they were smart or stupid, they still couldn't change the fact that the goblin army had fallen into the trap set by the National Defense Army...

The goblins didn't know yet that they were in great trouble.

When the news of the great victory on the front line reached back home, most of the goblin civilians did not express their opinions, as the war actually had nothing to do with them.

Because the only connection is tax increase and conscription...

And those in the middle class chose to celebrate this victory.

However, the people who really cared about the war were the residents of the cities that were hit by Wehrmacht air raids.

They had not recovered from the Wehrmacht's air raids, but after experiencing the air raids they had already recognized the Wehrmacht's strength.

So they did not believe in this victory, because a country that was able to seize air supremacy from the goblins would make the goblins unable to take care of themselves at the beginning of the war.

Now go and tell them that there is a great victory at the front and the enemy has been defeated!

This is simply a fantasy!
