Chapter 503 503 Lambs to be slaughteredAlanhill, in the Imperial General Staff Building in Serris City, in a closed Conference Hall , a group of variously dressed men are discussing the latest battle arrangements for the puppet empire.
Because the battle against the puppet empire is becoming more and more complicated and involves many economic and people's livelihood issues, this battle meeting also convened departments such as business, economy and people's livelihood to discuss the battle for the capture of Burkeland. action.
Bourkeland is the capital of the puppet empire and the country's largest magical city. It is a huge centipede city, which can accommodate more than 500,000 people at most. It is definitely a huge mobile fortress.
Like Floating Void City, it is also equipped with many magic weapons, has city-level magic defense barriers, and even has a magic Legion stationed at its peak, which can be described as a huge fortress.
Only now, the troops in it have been emptied, and the rest are just some garrison troops pretending to rush to the front, and the battle strength has almost been exhausted.
However, for Alanhill, how to occupy this once the most glorious and devastated large city in the Human Magic Empire is a matter worth thinking twice.
It's not difficult to destroy the city, just launch a nuclear weapon. But things are not that simple, and destroying Burkeland is not the best option.
"Using nuclear weapons to attack Bourkeland, when the odds are in hand, is not only a loss for human beings, but also for us Alanhill." The official of the People's Livelihood Department led by a pen in front of him After clicking twice on the document, he continued to speak.
He was concerned with the reconstruction after the war, as well as the population issue, and the various social issues that followed - if it was just occupation, without resolving these issues, Burkeland would be thrown into chaos Among them, more than ten years may not necessarily return to the pre-war level.
This remark has aroused the recognition of many people, and many officials in suits followed nodded. They also felt that Bellevue's problems were handled hastily at the time, and now they have encountered problems similar to Bellevue, and careful thinking is necessary and necessary.
"Yes! After all, in this case, all countries have acquiesced that Burkeland is the spills of war of our Alanhill. It is very uneconomical to use nuclear weapons to destroy our own cities in the future. things," another official who attended the meeting followed.
Naturally, such words have been said countless times. What supports Alanhill's rolling wheels is that capital is economical. It is naturally more cost-effective to occupy an unscathed metropolis than to occupy a ruin. Some.
Therefore, from the perspective of economic construction, maintaining the integrity of Burkeland is definitely a very important and meaningful thing.
An economical official then spoke up and gave the civilians of Burkeland an excuse: "Indeed, there are at least 500,000 residents in Burkeland, and these residents are precious Wealth. They are not magician collaborators, and they should not be brutally destroyed."
This excuse is as much as possible when it is used, and insignificant when it is not used. Anyway, those civilians in the city of Burkeland have good reasons for saying that they are innocent or that they deserve what they did.
It's just an excuse to use it - if the Emperor Your Majesty is more inclined to destroy Burkeland, then everyone in Burkeland is a criminal fornicating evil; and if Chris wants to Let these people survive, then they are the innocents trapped by Travish.
Anyway, life and death were just a matter of thought, and it had little to do with what they had done before, but what Alanhill wanted after the war.
"Also, a mobile and well-preserved magical city has a lot of reference value and practical significance for us at Alanhill." A technical scholar also talked about Bourke The importance of orchid.
His words caught the attention of some departments and military generals. Several people bowed their heads and recorded something. Most people are still discussing whether they should give Burkeland a life. .
"You're right, at least we haven't really controlled an important magic city that is internationally recognized. Obviously, Burkeland is an important symbol and bridge for us to connect with the magic world." The officials of the foreign affairs department watched the scene After being quiet for a while, he opened his mouth to express his opinion.
This is a discussion meeting after all, in order to let the general staff and other generals master some knowledge outside the battlefield, and comprehensively consider to come up with an attack plan for Burkeland.
Therefore, not only the people's livelihood and economic departments, but also the foreign affairs department and the technical department also sent their representatives to participate in this meeting.
"Can't we destroy every Magic Empire capital that Alanhill occupied? After that, will Magic Empire still believe in the slogan that we don't hate magicians?" A potbellied old man leaned on a chair and said. Said in a hoarse voice.
His words are also what many people want to say. If every capital of the Magic Empire is destroyed, it is estimated that the remaining Magic Empire will not trust Alanhill's attitude towards magician too much.
Alanhill's efforts over the past two years to change slogans like "Mortals are never slaves" to "Magic and technology are both human tools" have been largely in vain.
This is not allowed, so the handling of Bourkeland must be done with caution.
"That's right, if we destroy Bellevue and then Burkeland, our prestige will be lowered by one level in the magician world." The representative of the diplomatic service said immediately. .
"So what we'd prefer is to take Burkeland as intact as possible and make that city one of the greatest magical cities we've ever had in Alanhill." The meeting was chaired by the Secretary of Defense Kastner, he looked towards Rokai, the chief of staff beside him, and said with a sort of summary.
"This is a good way, similar to a business card, to prove that we are a business card that tolerates magicians!" The representative of the foreign ministry also looked towards Luo Kai, waiting for him to express his position.
"But if it is decided like this, then the troops on the front line will have to fight the enemy on the periphery of Bourkeland." Luo Kai thought for a few seconds and decided to raise his objection.
He pushed Castner the document he had prepared: "And Burkeland will be the hostage of the other side, when the time comes our soldiers refrain from shooting at the rat for fear of breaking the vases, it's going to be a tough fight. When the time comes, how are we going to explain to those soldiers?"
"Isn't our army built to complete missions and fight for the good of the Empire? Sacrifice is It is unavoidable, as long as there are enough benefits in exchange, no matter how high the loss is, we should bear it!" The economic department official hurriedly spoke, and he was also afraid that Kastner, who was also a military representative, would fall to Roque's side. .
"Is this what an imperial official should say? You bastards in the business department, did you break your brain when you were sleeping?" Luo Kai looked towards the man who spoke with a displeased expression. , his tone was full of displeasure.
"Out of this door, I will not admit any radical remarks I say. I am seeking the highest interests for the empire, not mixed with personal preferences and emotions." The man also Knowing that his tone seemed to have reserved a beating, he quickly explained.
"Your cold blood makes us feel cold! You are just a bunch of emotionless bodies! Are interests in your eyes more important than the lives of loyal warriors who are willing to give their lives for the empire? ?" Luo Kai seemed to be provoked by the other party, and said reluctantly.
"Okay! Stop arguing! Everyone is trying their best to serve this empire, and criticizing each other is just a waste of time." Dez, who participated in this time meeting but was not the host of the meeting, used his identity to press Quarrel this time.
In the territory of Alanhill, even the most arrogant person must give Dez a third of face. After all, the second richest man in the empire is also one of the most trusted people around the emperor.
Sure enough, after hearing Dez's words, the generals on the military side concealed their dissatisfaction. One of the generals came out and said: "No matter from which direction, it is beneficial to stay in Burkeland, which is helpful to us. I believe the military also recognizes this."
"This There is no doubt about it, but let me say the ugly first, if I have to pay the price of more than 50,000 soldiers for this city, I would rather destroy it with nuclear weapons!" Luo Kai did not bother about the previous issue, and continued to say his own idea.
"Yes, there is always a limit to everything! We can't allow the loss of too many soldiers in Bourkeland, it will also damage our reputation!" Dez made a final decision and looked towards Cass Turner.
Kastner understood and agreed to Roquet's request: "So, our bottom line is, if it's easy to take Bourkeland, then we do it, and if our attack is Obstruction, then we will change the way."
"The Sky Fleet is ready! The artillery shells are all replenished! General Valgeron is personally commanding this fleet, if necessary, the Sky Fleet can Bombard Bourkeland and completely destroy this mobile city," a general in charge of liaison reported.
"That's it! First order the troops to storm the periphery of Bourkeland. If the enemy resists very resolutely and our losses are heavy...then we will touch the Sky Fleet and destroy Bourkeland. Ran's Defensive Array!" Kastner cleared his throat, summarizing the content of the meeting this time.
As the chief of staff, Luo Kai stood up and nodded slightly and said: "I have no opinion! Send the meeting to Your Majesty as soon as possible! I will make a battle plan, the fastest way, Tomorrow the frontline troops will be ready for action!"
