Chapter 1431 Everyone is his own master
Leopold could only watch as the Wehrmacht Air Force destroyed his carefully built defenses.
With the help of the people of Nice, they rebuilt their defenses.
But the Wehrmacht's air force completely destroyed their fortifications.
The hard work of Leopold and the people was destroyed in an instant.
Leopold felt deeply powerless.
For a moment he didn't know how to make the right decision.
The original firm idea was instantly shaken.
Is it really right to pile hundreds of thousands of people here and let them be bombed?
However, while Leopold was hesitating, the mercenaries had already arrived at the city.
In order to completely capture the capital of Nice, the Wehrmacht equipped the mercenaries with a large number of vehicles.
And they are all wheeled infantry fighting vehicles suitable for urban warfare.
Rather than a tracked infantry fighting vehicle suitable for field use.
The biggest difference between tracked infantry fighting vehicles and wheeled infantry fighting vehicles is their combat battlefield.
The biggest advantage of wheeled infantry fighting vehicles is their mobility.
The so-called big eight-wheeler emphasizes the maneuverability of the wheels.
Especially in the city, they are very fast.
Moreover, the eight wheels ensure that the infantry fighting vehicle still has sufficient power even after losing two or three wheels.
And the tires of many wheeled infantry fighting vehicles are bulletproof.
It is difficult for ordinary bullets to break car tires.
But if you keep shooting at the wheels with 12.7mm bullets, then just ignore what I said.
Who would shoot a 12.7mm bullet at the tire of a wheeled tank?
Due to the air force bombing at night and noon, the entire outer city was reduced to ruins.
Before Leopold and his army could react, the Wehrmacht launched a fierce attack.
Not only that, but they also gathered a large number of troops to launch attacks from all directions.
At first, the mercenaries only planned to launch a fierce attack from the west gate, but they found that the surrounding traps and mines had been basically cleared.
The mercenaries suddenly decided to launch an attack from four directions simultaneously.
Moreover, the city walls of the capital of the Kingdom of Nice had been blown down, so they could march in from all directions.
The mercenaries are very fast.
Since there were no city walls around, although the mercenaries were said to attack from four directions, in fact there were many directions of attack.
Basically, the attack was launched from seven or eight directions.
And he easily sent the main force into the outer city of the Kingdom of Nice.
The Nice Kingdom's army guarding the ruins of the outer city soon engaged in battle with the main force.
The mercenaries came with great force and were well prepared. Most of the soldiers of the Kingdom of Nice army in the city had been terrified all day and were now at their most exhausted.
It is already three or four o'clock in the afternoon. The mercenaries chose to launch the attack at this time in the hope of ending the battle as soon as possible within 2 to 3 hours and occupying some important facilities in the outer city.
Relying on these important buildings, a temporary defense line was built, and troops were continuously transported from outside the city into the city.
The mercenaries launched an attack with thunderous force and entered the city at the fastest speed.
The exhausted army of the Kingdom of Nice was forced to collide with the mercenaries.
They also knew that they could not compete with the fully-strength mercenaries, but they did not want to give up their hometown.
After the King of Nice learned of this situation, he personally came outside the city to comfort the soldiers on the front line, hoping that the soldiers on the front line could fight bravely.
Although the king was a bit of a scoundrel, he also knew that the fall of the capital would leave him dead without a burial place.
Those nobles who originally lived in the inner city and were high and mighty also chose to stand up.
They moved out a large amount of food that the family had stored and distributed it to the soldiers for free to encourage them, and also brought them wine.
All classes in the entire Kingdom of Nice joined in this war.
Because they knew that the capital was the place of their final decisive battle, and if they failed in this war, the entire country would perish.
Although most people in the Kingdom of Nice do not have a strong sense of identity with this country, those who remain in the city are either unable to escape or are loyal subjects of the kingdom.
Those who cannot escape must fight to the end to survive, while those diehard fans are already prepared to serve their country loyally.
No matter which country it is, even if the regime is no longer necessary to exist, if someone chooses to sacrifice himself for this country or regime, his enemies will not insult this person.
No matter when, sacrificing one's life for one's country is always the most heroic way to die.
Because a country cannot be without heroes. If the victors insult these heroes who sacrificed their lives for their country, then one day when their country is in danger, there will be no heroes to stand up.
The Kingdom of Nice can now be said to be a mixture of all classes and ideas.
Some of them gathered in the capital of the Kingdom of Nice for their own interests, and some for the country, intending to fight the National Defense Forces to the end.
The mercenaries attacked fiercely.
With the support of a large number of wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, they pushed forward all the way.
Leopold initially deployed a large number of soldiers in the buildings within the city.
He planned to use layers of defense to consume the mercenaries' strength.
However, the mercenaries' attack was so fierce that as soon as the coalition soldiers tried to launch a sneak attack, they were suppressed by the mercenaries' machine gunners.
However, before the coalition soldiers had time to turn around, the wheeled infantry fighting vehicles supporting the mercenary squad drove directly over and launched a fierce attack on the building.
The coalition soldiers inside and the buildings were directly blown into pieces.
The mercenaries gained the upper hand right from the start.
This is because the mercenaries have a very wide contact area. At the outermost line of defense, the coalition forces cannot take advantage of their numbers and can only be defeated one by one by the mercenaries.
Mercenaries are no ordinary people. They never thought about fighting honestly from the beginning.
Because they know that later on, the area controlled by the Kingdom of Nice will become smaller and smaller, and the battle line will gradually shrink.
By that time the coalition forces' numerical advantage will be revealed.
Therefore, at the beginning of the war, we must seize as much territory as possible to ensure victory.
on the street.
A coalition soldier huddles behind a bunker.
He was originally an ammunition man. The machine gunner on the building in front of him had run out of ammunition, so he rushed downstairs without stopping to move the ammunition boxes.
As a result, as soon as they arrived at the door of the building with the ammunition boxes, the mercenaries' infantry fighting vehicles directly destroyed the building with machine guns.
The coalition soldier was stunned on the spot.
His comrades and the position he was trying to defend were reduced to ruins.
The coalition soldier was stunned for a moment and couldn't find his direction for a moment.
The whole person stood there in a daze, at a loss as to what to do.
Who is he, where is he, what is he doing?
The soldier was a little dazed, and the footsteps of the mercenaries were getting closer and closer. The soldier was completely at a loss.
