At night, the lights are still bright outside Phoenix City. A row of spotlights at the top of the wall illuminated the battlefield below. Soldiers were cleaning up the battlefield. The bodies of the dead had to be burned to prevent plague. Pestilence was terrible in the old times, but in this era when new germs appear almost every day, explosive pestilence can be fatal.
As for the weapons, ammunition, chariots and shells in the hands of the dead, they are recyclable resources. All these resources are collected, which is also a considerable number.
At the end of the day's battle, the commander of parliament gave the order to retreat. Zero did not deliberately stop them. After all, the wilderness outside Phoenix is very vast, there is no terrain to restrict the enemy's movement, and the number of soldiers in the city is only equal to that of the enemy, so there is no way to stop them. But even so, the Council left a mountain high corpse outside Phoenix.
Looking at the several corpse mountains which were ordered under the light, zero shook his head and returned to the city. War is not pleasant, either for the loser or the winner. People who feel that war is as intoxicating as wine are either psychopaths or war maniacs.
Zero or two are not, so it seems a little depressing when I go back to the two-story building for my living.
On the next day, a detailed report was put in front of his case. The report listed the war losses of both sides. Everything was expressed in figures and clear. Due to the proper use of tactics and the high-level heterogeneous support, the battle damage of Phoenix is very limited. On the other side of the Council, more than ten thousand bodies were left behind. As for the damaged chariots, there were more than 50.
These chariots alone will cost the Council a lot of money.
The same report appeared in Hart's office in neru, and Hart looked at it for a long time.
In this operation, the parliament suffered heavy losses. The most serious damage is not soldiers, but chariots and capable men, including Constantine and two Black Knights. The fall of these three strong men alone is worth more than the sum of other losses. Especially Constantine, the old strong man of Augustus, almost watched the death of the man Hart grew up with, which made Hart feel bitter.
He didn't even dare to look like his father, Leo, when he received the news. At the same time, Hart also understood why the last time he exchanged materials for lain, zero would generously give to those with the ability to surrender. Because for zero, with the level of his army, those with abilities below level 8 have become dispensable.
Hart sat in the office. He didn't get angry or growl. He just sat quietly, as usual. But today, the light falling into the office through the window is much paler than usual.
The war lasted less than one day, but it took more than two days to clean the battlefield. All dead bodies have been completely cremated. The cremated ashes and debris will be transported to the wilderness ten kilometers away for landfilling. Maybe they can make a final contribution to the world. Turning them into fertilizer to revive the land can also be regarded as another kind of rebirth?
As for the combat vehicles that can be repaired, they are being repaired. Soon, these combat vehicles will be able to be put into the battlefield. Brown had intended to remove the parliamentary marks from these chariots, but zero intended to keep them. If these chariots are launched at a critical moment, they can also confuse the eyes and ears of the parliament.
After general doss withdrew, Hart also withdrew his troops from Jericho. In that battlefield, the parliament was in the dominant position, so it was not difficult to retreat. But next, neru is going to be pretty tough. Saul will not let go of the chance that Parliament will suffer a heavy blow, but will look for an opportunity to further expand the trauma.
When the wound is big enough to bleed, it will be enough to kick the parliament troops out of the coastline and roll to Yongye City, which is located in the north of the mainland. There is no premonition that a big battle is coming. Before the storm that will change the situation on the mainland comes, all he has to do is prepare for the war.
Another day later, sol sent an invitation for a joint general attack. Naturally, zero would not refuse the invitation, so the army in Phoenix City began to mobilize again. Soldiers, capable men, chariots, biological weapons... All kinds of war resources are gathered and ready to start. At this time, zero welcomed two special guests.
They were brought to the office by Su himself. When they asked about each other's identity, Su just said to zero, "one of them is your old friend."
Zero is very curious which old friend ran to Phoenix at this time. When he opened the door of the office and walked in, he saw two figures in half cloaks. One of them was petite and seemed to be a woman. The other is the man. No doubt, hearing the footsteps behind him, the two people who are talking quietly at the window turn around. The woman lifts her cap, revealing her blue hair and familiar face.
"Refined?" "Why are you here?" zero whispered"Don't worry, I'm not looking for you to fight." Xiuya took off her cloak and said, "I'm so sad to wear this thing."
"It's a cover up, major general."
The man next to him said that he also took off his cloak, revealing his light golden hair and lazy face. But in those half squinting eyes, zero saw the twinkling light, obviously this man is not as simple as he looks.
"Let me introduce you." Xiuya pushed the man forward and said: "this is Zuo Fei, the head of the law enforcement group of the parliament. In short, the purpose of the law enforcement group is to ensure that the parliament will not go astray with personal selfish intentions. Now, some members of Zuo Fei think that my father is my father. That is, speaker oglock is using the power at hand to satisfy his ambition. By the way, they already know about proscius. "
Zero immediately changed his eyes and looked at Zuo Fei. Zuo Fei put out his hand with a bitter smile: "major general is so straightforward that he even omitted the necessary modifications. It's really embarrassing."
"I don't think so, at least in my opinion, it's more efficient. At least I'll let you sit down and talk about it, not blow you out right away. After all, it makes people feel uneasy to let a strong man of ten rank wander around my city
Zuo Fei laughed and said: "Mr. zero is joking. With your strength, plus those strong people in the city. It's not easy for me to clean up. "
"Well, don't be polite. I'm sorry, I'm very short of time, so you have 10 minutes to explain your intention. "
"How generous of you." Zuo Fei shrugged his shoulders and no longer kept it. He told the whole story of what the parliament began to suspect of oglock. Finally, he said: "although some members have proposed to suspend the power of the speaker, to be honest, they do not have enough power to balance the speaker. We need to fight for Leo, the patriarch of the ogudus family. Only with the approval of this heavyweight, can we stop the speaker's action. "
"So what can I do?"
"We hope you can convince Leo that in the current situation, only those who are not in Parliament and the hall of souls and who are strong enough can hope to do so. Now, I can't think of a better person than you. " Left is not the way.
"My original intention is to prevent the further expansion of this internal friction, and then I will take part in this war," he said. Since our purposes are the same, it is not impossible for us to cooperate. But is Leo so easily talked about? "
"Of course, it's not easy, and that's my biggest headache." Zuo Fei said with a bitter smile: "you need to create a condition, one that is enough to make Leo believe that you are sincere, so that you can break his heart. Otherwise, he will probably blow you away at the first time. "
Zero looked at Xiuya and said, "it's really not a good job."
"Of course. You know, I'm still in my father's custody. If it wasn't for Zuo Fei's help, I couldn't have come here to see you. " Xiuya bit her lip and said, "didn't you say that the world is dying, now I know, and I'm trying to stop it from dying. So you are not allowed to refuse! "
Left non unexpectedly looked at the side of this girl, but to Xiuya hard stare back. The head of the law enforcement team laughs. Xiuya is always strong, even in the face of her father. But when talking with zero, it's a bit coquettish, which is quite different from her usual.
Zero laughs and says, "don't worry. I'm happy to see that we can minimize casualties and end the war. Whenever there is a chance, I will try. Moreover, we are on the same front. It's better to be a comrade in arms than an enemy. "
The stone in Zuo Fei's heart was half fallen, and he asked, "when are you going to start?"
On the contrary, he said, "don't you mean to create a suitable condition? Now, I think, is the chance. "
"What is it?" Zuo Fei's eyes lit up.
"Maybe you don't know that just a few days ago, Hart used a very clever strategy to fight sol and me at the same time. Unfortunately, though his strategy is ingenious, his combat power is still a little weak. Your Council has suffered a loss from me, and now its strength is greatly damaged. Sol has invited me to join forces to attack neru
Hearing this, Zuo Fei's face changed and said, "how can we do that? Once we hit neru, we may even hurt Hart. Leo will not compromise for revenge. That will only push him to the speaker's side
"Of course I know." Zero said, "I'll start later and meet sol first. We need to work out the details of the attack. We still need to fight this war, but we need to fight it in a proper way. By the way, we should also fight your so-called terms. "
Looking at zero, Zuo Fei and Xiuya look at each other, unable to understand his real intention.
