Chapter 837： Too much too much

A heavy snow covered many stiff corpses, and the Demon World finally ushered in the real winter after a brief ceasefire.

The Airanhill Empire began to stabilize its defense line because of the tight logistics supplies. They stopped advancing, but built a stronger defense line outside the originally occupied area.

Because of the experience of being counterattacked by the devil for the first time, Ailan Hill's frontline troops no longer care about it. They built a strong line of defense and deployed a lot of troops in the depth.

City No. 48 is still in the hands of the Airanhill Empire, and the battle surrounding it will ultimately end in the all-out victory of the Ailanhill Empire.

More than 200,000 demon troops who counterattacked were wiped out, and about 300,000-500,000 demon troops were wiped out by Ailan Hill's nuclear weapons on their way out.

The long-lost tranquility accompanied by the snowflakes falling from the sky added a bit of solemnity and tranquility to the land of the Demon Realm.

On Ailan Hill's position, human soldiers are warming around the campfire. There are still enough fuel and other supplies, so that the soldiers of the Ailan Hill Empire can face this winter that has saved the Demon World more calmly.

"Ha!" A soldier breathed into his hand, then spread his hands and pointed at the empty gasoline can that had lit the bonfire. It was full of charcoal, exuding heat, making all the soldiers around feel warm.

Not far away, several Ailan Hill soldiers were huddled in a covered air defense bunker, enjoying their lunch.

They were holding a lunch box with unpalatable canned luncheon meat that had just been heated, and some potatoes. The lid of the kettle was full of thick soup, even on the sandbag covered with snow, still steaming.

The logistics supplies of the Ailan Hill Empire are desperately delivering food and useful items to the front-line soldiers, but due to the distance, such transportation is still not timely.

Seventy percent of the capacity has been diverted to ammunition and fuel. After all, food is not so important in a state of war.

So everyone is still complaining about the unpalatable food, still complaining about the inability to take a bath, and still complaining about the inability to replace their camouflage blouses that have been worn for more than a month.

"Huh!" The soldier who took a sip of hot soup smashed his mouth, swallowed the not-fresh vegetable leaves inside his throat, and groaned comfortably.

He used his soup spoon to stir his own soup, then he scooped a large spoonful of potatoes, swallowed it in one bite, and vaguely said to his companion: "It's really amazing to be able to eat such a hot bite. Not bad."

Another soldier was devouring them, and the two of them were about to stop resting and go to stand guard, otherwise there wouldn't be such a good lunch.

Hearing what his companion said, he nodded, swallowed the luncheon meat and mashed potatoes in his mouth, licked the potato-filled teeth with his tongue, and said with enjoyment: "If we can take a vacation , That would be even better."

Because of the problem of insufficient strength of the expeditionary army, even the first batch of troops to enter the demon world did not get any chance to take a rest. All the troops are in combat readiness, and not many troops even retreat to the second line for rest.

Many troops were defeated by the White-robed God Attendant, and many of these troops were still fighting on the front line. The 4th Army Group that had just been added to the Demon World had no chance to rest.

More than 500,000 soldiers have been added to the front line, plus the troops that originally entered the demon world, Ailan Hill has deployed more than 600,000 troops in the demon world.

Keeping these 600,000 people from starving or freezing is actually a miracle created by Ailan Hill's logistics supply troops.

You know, the Devildom is not a magical continent. There are no asphalt roads for a kilometer here, let alone railways. The large-scale transportation here has to rely entirely on floating transport ships, and the terminal transportation can only rely entirely on cars.

Because of the gene bomb, the number of devil dogs is decreasing sharply. The demonic low-level troops that have lost their numerical superiority can no longer threaten human defenses.

This heavy weapon has brought great advantages to the Airan Hill Empire, and it frees the soldiers of Ai Lan Hill from worrying about the sudden appearance of a large number of enemies in their forward positions.

"Buzz...buzz..." In the snow in the sky, a drone about the size of a table swayed its fuselage, and tremblingly returned to its launch position from a distance.

It carries a camera that can help the Ailan Hill grenadiers check whether there are suspicious conditions far away from their line of defense.

Many troops are equipped with such reconnaissance drones, which are easy to operate and have very good results. It can quickly check the situation within a few kilometers without requiring soldiers to take risks.

Unlike Ailan Hill's troops, the demons on the other side, as well as demons civilians who were driven out of their homes, can only collapse a little bit in the bad weather at this moment.

The Mozu refugees, who were too late and could not carry a large amount of food, were ragged, hungry and tired, and now had to withstand the test of heavy snow.

According to the reconnaissance report of the Airenhill Imperial Air Force, at least 1.3 million demons were crowded on the road and trapped by the heavy snow. After the snow is over, it is predicted that no more than one-third of these demons will survive.

Hard-bodied corpses are everywhere in the front and back of Ailan Hill's position. If it were not for the temperature drop, these corpses would have rotted and stinky, and the whole world was filled with an unpleasant smell.

It's fine now, the corpse is frozen, and the plague is unlikely to occur. The follow-up troops that had been following up very slowly, this time had enough time to deal with these decayed and smelly corpses sooner or later.

The engineers who repaired the dirt roads destroyed by tanks and cars again drove the forklifts that were brought in urgently to clear the mountains of corpses into the fields.

Because it was too late to dig the pit, the engineers even used explosives to blast out the big pit, and then concentrated on burying the dead demons piled in the barren fields.

The Demon King Alicia in blood-red armor, standing in the ice and snow, was particularly eye-catching.

She caught a few snowflakes with her hand and let them melt in her palm. After a while, she finally spoke, and said to the demon officers who followed her: "If this continues, our losses will only be greater."

A few demon officers didn’t speak, because they really had nothing to say—the troops that were barely pieced together couldn’t stop the enemy’s offensive at all, and it was the weather, supplies, and the devil’s that stopped the Ailan Hill Empire "negotiation".

Instead of using those terrible human weapons to attack, their troops themselves suffered heavy losses in this heavy snow.

Everyone knows that in the harsh environment of the Demon Realm, every winter, people who die of freezing and starvation are more numerous than those who die in battle...
