1560 Two-Sided Grand Strategy
President Marillo walked back to the table and sat down again. He placed his hands lightly on the table and looked at the Penteo people, "I'm right here!"
“My father told me since I was a child that each of us has our own responsibilities on our shoulders.”
"That belongs to us, we can't escape, and we shouldn't escape!"
"I know that going to Pengeo will avoid some terrible things, but this is exactly what I need to face. I want to be with my people. I am not going anywhere!"
"If the Confederates are going to destroy this country and break people's backs, then I hope they kill me first!"
"I will greet death generously!"
The Grand President of Marillo is not a fool, he is well educated in the Federation, and he knows very well what will happen if he goes to Pengeo.
Although he will not die, he will become a puppet and a symbolic thing in his life.
He is actually quite afraid of death, but people have to persevere.
He thought of his father. When the federal people raised the butcher knife, did he also hesitate?
Did he also suffer some temptations, such as being able to live safely?
But in the end, he still chose to die happily. It was not that he was stupid, he just hoped to awaken people's sleeping hearts in this way!
If a president's life is not heavy enough for people to wake up.
So... what about two?
His attitude was very firm, and he was not looking for excuses to ask for more benefits. Pengeo's diplomats could see this.
In fact, he knew very well that the change in the president's attitude had a lot to do with their failure to stall the federal offensive.
Using limited forces to attack the Federation on almost federal territory?
At first, some people in the empire thought it might be possible to do this, but now they understand that it is impossible!
The situation here is being reported back to the country every day, and the country is also constantly studying some tactics and countermeasures.
There is no face-to-face war between the two major powers, but that day will not be too far away.
Before face-to-face war breaks out, getting to know each other well is what these people want to do.
In fact, from the perspective of the Pengeo Empire itself, the continued advancement of the Federation does not mean anything.
Just like their military operations in the Amelia region, they continued to advance, so that now the Gefra people began to actively retreat.
There are also federal people in the local area, but this does not represent the true military strength of the federal people, just like their steady retreat in Marillo does not represent the true military strength of the Pengeo Empire.
Seeing that he could not persuade the president, the diplomatic ambassador was keenly aware from his attitude that he had made up his mind, so he stopped trying to persuade him.
"I admire your decision and your willingness to fight and die for your country. You are a true warrior!"
"Our assistance will not stop and will continue until the last minute!"
"Of course, in order to avoid something happening, our officers, except those who stayed behind voluntarily, will all retreat to... the port. I hope you can understand!"
The President nodded indifferently. Before the war broke out, he felt that the Penteo people's assistance was very important.
Weapons and equipment, ammunition and artillery shells, and tactical support, before the actual war with the Federation, he felt that he was not much worse than the Federation.
He even heard the reason why the Federation wanted to use force against Marillo first. They were worried that Marillo would involve too much of the Federation's energy after the war intensified.
At that time, he had a wrong understanding. He felt that the Federation had placed Marillo on an equal opponent. He was even a little proud to think that maybe this war would end with Marillo winning!
Only now did he realize that the reason why the Federals were wary of them strategically was not because of how powerful they really were.
Moreover, the Pengeo people's assistance was too slow, and the military equipment could not withstand the federal bombing.
If they cannot control the air, they will not be able to contain the federation's constant attacks.
Marillo itself has no pilots or aircraft, which means that they must rely on Pengeo to compete for air supremacy, and Pengeo does not seem to have any plans to import aircraft on a large scale...
This is a dead end!
Just as Pengeo's diplomat was about to leave, he seemed to have thought of something.
"By the way, I have a document here that may be able to give you some help."
He took out a document from his briefcase, handed it to the president, and then said goodbye again and left.
The President watched these people leave without getting up and seeing them off. If he thought that Marillo could drag the Federation into the quagmire of war, it would be a stupid mistake.
Then believing that Pengio can help Mariro improve the situation is an even stupider mistake!
However, he still had to thank the Pengeo people. At least his loan and military assistance were in vain.
Gu Ling
He picked up the document casually and turned to the first page. He actually wasn't ready to read it carefully until...
He was deeply immersed in it!
This is a document that expounds a strategic idea, and it is also a prototype of the original resistance organizations in the Amelia region.
This document lists in detail some of the methods used by the resistance organizations in fighting against the brutal rule of the Gevra people, and introduces how they withdrew from the city, how they established strongholds in the wild, and how they flexibly Fight against the ruler of Gefra!
This document gave the president a different kind of hope.
After his previous good wishes were shattered, he found a more practical way!
This document makes it very clear that the several-year resistance war caused the Gefra people to go from being indifferent at the beginning to becoming frightened at the end.
They don't need to complete any strategic tactical plan, they just need to constantly harass the occupiers, the invaders are enough!
After reading it, the President glanced at the Army Chief, who was standing by the wall and had never spoken a word. He threw the document forward and said, "Go and have someone copy it, and you can study it."
"Next we need to change our methods. Since we can't stop the federals from continuing to move north in the city, then we will withdraw!"
No one knows that Ambassador Pengio’s original plan to turn Marillo into a country full of terrorism was thrown to the president, but it turned out to be another strategic idea, but even if he knew, he would continue to do so!
Because only by doing this can the Federation fall into this swamp.
On the other side, outside a city in Amelia, raging fire has completely engulfed the city!
Even if you stand far away, you can still feel the heat waves generated by the flames pressing over you like a tsunami!
After each wave of heat, people who are slightly closer to the city will find that their hair is a little burnt.
Some of them looked at the burning city blankly, and some of them knelt on the ground and cried!
This is their city, they have lived here for many years, and they never even thought that something like this would happen!
But it finally happened!
Starting in the past few days, the Gefras and the federals drove them out of their homes and drove them to the suburbs. Then they put everything they could pull away into their trucks, and finally set the entire city on fire!
At this time, the Amelia region was not very developed. Except for a few cities, most cities still retained the previous architectural style, mainly using wooden building materials.
After these things are ignited, it is too easy to cause spread!
The city was burned to the ground, and the Gefras, the Federals, began to retreat.
Someone tried to stop these people from leaving, but they fell at gunpoint.
The continuous losses on the front line actually stimulated the Gefra people. Faced with this kind of accusation, they directly treated it as an attack.
Some people also tried to rely on the group advantage to ask the Gefra people for an explanation, but unfortunately, these people eventually died under machine guns.
They loaded all the supplies indifferently and then retreated. This was the unanimous decision of the governor and the island!
The supply convoy, the Gefra people, and the federal people disappeared into the wilderness, leaving only the city that was still burning and hundreds of thousands of citizens who had lost their homes!
Next, they will face a very difficult situation, with no place to live and no source of food. When those evil ghost-like guys left, they did not forget to set fire to all the farmland, killing and taking away all the livestock they could take away!
The problem of food and drink for hundreds of thousands of people is a big problem, and many people don’t know how to solve it!
Similar things happened in the entire area from central to eastern Amelia. The island's "non-resistance evacuation" approach to the area was recognized by many Gaevra people.
Rather than being killed quickly by the Pengeos, it's better to rally against them.
Moreover, the central defense line is undergoing rapid repairs, and a large number of workers from Nagaril are working overtime and two shifts around the clock!
It is said that very complicated fortifications have been established there, forming a long military defense line with the help of the terrain!
The meaning of Gefra Bendao is to fight a defensive counterattack with the Penteo people around this line of defense!
They will use all their military power here, because everyone knows that if they cannot resist the attack of the Pengeo coalition and are defeated by them, Amelia will no longer be able to resist in the future!
If you continue westward from here, you will be able to directly threaten the island of Gefra!
Bumping vehicles carried large amounts of supplies and personnel to the defense line, and federal aid also arrived.
In addition to helping them build fortifications along the defense line, the Federals also provided a lot of advanced military equipment.
For example, federally produced tanks!
Ankok Industry has added four assembly lines, but it is still too late to produce these tanks. In addition to the orders they need to meet the needs of the Marillo battlefield, the rest are sent here.
Some of the performance of tanks on the front line has been reported back to the island, and the Prime Minister directly sent additional orders.
He, as well as the Minister of War Gevra, believe that tanks will be the best way to change the weakness of Gevra's army!
