Chapter 354 A Surprise Attack
Chapter 354 A Surprise Attack
Modern warfare is artillery warfare, and naturally also missile warfare; cyber warfare, and even more so, industrial warfare and information warfare.
For Amelancy, the North is not only an important mining base, but also an industrial base. Currently, a considerable number of cities along the northern coast are still under Amelancy's control.
A few days ago, a large bird took off from a field airfield on the outskirts of Galinencia, 90 kilometers west of Whiterun. Its wings did not bear the tricolor flower insignia commonly used by the Amelansi Air Force, but rather the letters UN, which are commonly used by the Universal Star Group – meaning the United Nations of the Earth.
This giant bird is unprecedented, and its technological level surpasses that of all current Amelanxi civilizations. It is the result of the restoration of data from the Amelanxi Earth database by the stars of the universe.
The SR-71 "Blackbird" jet-powered long-range, high-altitude, high-speed strategic reconnaissance aircraft was born in one of the most radical eras of humankind. It utilized the most advanced technologies of that time, relying on advanced technology to gain tactical and strategic advantages at any cost.
After Alice arrived in the Northern Theater and gained control of it, the black bird arrived in Kalinincia, one of the few cities in the North still under the control of the Amelansi regime, via a large transport ship of the Universal Star Group.
The moment this incredibly futuristic "Blackbird" took off, the Imperial Air Force immediately felt a sense of pressure. The SR-71 was not a stealth aircraft, but its service ceiling of 100 meters and speed of 3.5 times made any Imperial aircraft seem like a tortoise crawling on the ground in comparison, and the various Imperial MiGs were simply unable to catch up with this big blackbird.
Empress Catherine was aware of the intelligence that the Imperial Air Force was frequently encountering "Blackbirds" over the northern border. Unlike previous emperors, Catherine was deeply influenced by Alice's theories. She was hands-on but also knew how to delegate authority. In fact, the Empire had an Imperial Parliament, although its power was not as great as that of the People's Assembly of Amelianci. Relatively speaking, the Lucy Empire was actually a dualistic constitutional monarchy.
Upon hearing the "exceptionally fast big black bird," Yeka immediately guessed that it must be Alice's doing. The Empire had many spies in Amelansi, and she had never heard of this before.
Furthermore, given that Alice has recently reportedly seized power in the northwestern war zone of Amelian, it is almost certain that the Imperial Army's next opponent will no longer be those fat-headed senators sitting in Delalaye, but Alice Delalaye herself.
Thinking of this, her body trembled uncontrollably. Alice, that was Alice! She took out a photograph from her underwear—a candid shot taken by Trian on the grassy field, showing Alice wearing a white shirt, a pencil skirt, and black stockings, with glasses and a high ponytail.
Yes, that's a photo of Alice taking a class there once.
"Hehe, Ms. Alice, I never expected this! I never expected what you would teach me this time, or what I would teach you?"
Yeka stared at the photo with a dreamy smile. Alice, of course, had no idea what Yeka was thinking. She was currently standing on a ship with her hands tied in ponytails.
A ship, an airborne warship—the "Flood".
Since Alice decided to expand the military power of the Global Stars Defense Department, the Global Stars Group began construction of the third large space/atmosphere warship. This third warship used the hull of the "Vigilant II", but the ship itself was more like an auxiliary ship - it did not carry much offensive equipment, but only a large number of "Standard II" ship-to-air missiles.
However, as its name suggests, this is a special ship – “Flood”. The “Flood” space warship was designed from the beginning as a large radio jamming ship. The “Flood” super jammer on board can carry out directional jamming by taking advantage of the huge power of the air warship.
"Miss Alice, we may begin."
Alice nodded and said, "Go ahead and do it."
An officer pressed a button, and immediately the huge radio antenna began to rotate.
"Hello?! Hello! This is the 9th Division of the Imperial Royal Guard! My unit has encountered 300 enemy tanks in front of us!! Has anyone received this? The enemy is launching an attack on our front!"
"Hello? Hello? This is the Trian command post! Can anyone hear us? Amelansi paratroopers! The Amelansi men are coming down from the sky! Trian needs reinforcements, or we'll have to retreat from the city!"
Alice mobilized two airships from Amelansi. Compared to heavy transport aircraft, airships using magic-guided anti-gravity engines are slower, but have better carrying capacity and armor protection. Therefore, in this world, expensive anti-gravity technology has been vigorously developed and has replaced transport aircraft in the development of various powerful countries in the central continent, becoming the main force of air transport.
So after the “flood” began, two airships from the Northern Theater Command, carrying two brigades of Amerlane paratroopers, launched a surprise attack on Trian.
After being attacked on both flanks, the Imperial General Staff responded actively, mobilizing a significant number of troops to the two directions where Alice had ordered the feint attack. However, the widespread directional interference caused by the flood immediately paralyzed the Imperial Army's radio communications and radar. Based on the information previously gathered by SR-71, Yug Lat ordered several missile units near the Hilla Port naval base to quickly launch surface-to-surface tactical missiles at the Imperial Army's anti-ship missile positions, radars, outposts, and artillery positions identified by intelligence.
The entire North was in chaos, but Alice knew that this situation was temporary. The signal of "Flood" was too obvious; a single anti-radiation missile could turn the flood into a bright sun. Empress Catherine on the other side would not be unaware of this. However, the primary objective of this campaign was to drive the enemy out of Trian.
For Amelansi, Trian is undoubtedly a spiritual sanctuary. While De La Leyer is the capital, Trian is the true birthplace of Amelansi.
The Red Hall, Trian Union University, Trian National Academy of Sciences... the entire Trian is like an Amelansi museum, and now, how could the previous government, which lost Trian, not be protested against and forced to step down?
Both the army and navy had their reservations about this. Now, Amelia has no president and is being held up by a few civil servants in the emergency provisional government. But Alice has returned.
In fact, the Ministry of Defense and the National Military Council, located in De La Leyé, also received Alice's operational plan. The aerospace fleet transferred from several other war zones, and the truckloads of supplies, were all the work of the National Military Council.
Alice had immense appeal, which no subsequent president could match.
