Chapter 1575 Frontline
".A group of scouts were airdropped to Oss. The Australian continent has become a living hell. There may still be survivors, but there is no possibility of salvation."
"The war on the southern island is getting more intense. It is said that people from the East have been seen on the battlefield there. Some say they are our army, while others say they are simply mercenaries. But what can be verified is that we have intervened."
"I heard that they seemed to be from the Coast Guard. I also heard that our official request was for the Sakura Kingdom and the Peninsula to send reinforcements, at least to give the Archipelago Alliance some encouragement, but they were all rejected. Are they really not afraid that their defense line will collapse and they will be the first to suffer?"
"In their eyes, isn't it that the East Country is there to support them? They are all counting on us to take the lead. Besides, they are also facing problems along the coast, so they may not be able to send out the army."
News from the front line came in like snowflakes and couldn't be stopped.
The vast majority of them are bad news. The invaders are much stronger than expected. When only Oss fell, many people still had a chance of luck, because the Oss people in this world are indeed quite weak in all aspects.
But even in another timeline of Lu Ping'an's memory, Australia's military strength is completely unreliable, and because Australia in this world is less developed, there is no external pressure around them that they need to deal with. They only need to maintain public security. Due to the reality that the company system is the main system, most of the forces are actually various "corporate security guards."
Different from the "armed security guards" in the cyberpunk world who are equipped with all kinds of future technologies, the company security guards in reality only need to be sufficient, and all kinds of old armed weapons are the main force. After all, they mainly deal with wasteland bandits and refugees who are even worse equipped.
In addition, most of the company's main forces are actually in the process of developing foreign worlds, and the homeland which has little value has been abandoned. Although Australia is large, its total military strength is really pitiful.
As the weakest point, it is normal to be captured, but the population there is really not small, and more than 90% of them have been completely wiped out.
".We have already discovered more than six races, belonging to at least three forces."
One of the main forces is an old acquaintance of Lu Ping'an. They are the octopus force that can be encountered in any world with sea. They are mainly composed of fishmen, but they have so many marine creatures that they can set up a museum.
The second one is the "Giant Country" composed of various giant creatures, the Giant Soldier Clan. This is the preliminary name decided simply because the smaller ones among their warriors are all over four meters tall, and there are many giants over ten meters tall.
Its appearance is a bit scary. It has a humanoid body but four arms and two auxiliary arms. The auxiliary arms seem to be an external facility, with wings, fins, training wheels and even tentacles. It can be regarded as a universal arm.
It has six eyes but no nose or mouth, and there are several breathing holes on both sides of its cheeks. It seems that it is also a planetary race that needs atmosphere to survive. The white board face looks creepy, just like something out of a horror movie.
They have a unique appearance and are obviously terrestrial creatures, so they are naturally separated from the octopus forces.
In terms of specific strength, it is said that the weakest one, when they are not well adapted to the environment, has combat power of level two or above, while the big guys over seven or eight meters tall can be used as defense-specialized command combatants.
The larger they are, the more of a strange force field they seem to have. They are not invulnerable to swords and guns, but it is true that ordinary quasi-pollution weapons cannot penetrate their defenses. The most troublesome thing is that their skin is really thick and huge, and the wounds caused by swords and knives seem as powerless as embroidery needles.
Originally, in this battle, the threat posed by this creature was not that great.
After all, no matter how strong he was in melee combat or how troublesome his auxiliary arm was, he still couldn't cross the sea and leave his planet to come to the new foreign land. Developing new war tools would not be a quick thing.
The problem lies with the third force, which has also become a major problem for all countries, including the East.
"Has the Shadow Ray come again? This time it's the Sakura Kingdom that was bombed? Serves them right. This is the end of someone who only wants to sweep his own snow."
"We have also attracted rays, so don't laugh at them. However, we only have a few more fishmen here, who should be sentinels collecting intelligence. It seems that two large cities in the Sakura Kingdom have been destroyed by the giant soldiers. It seems that this is the main attack direction."
Shadow rays look like thin black shadows floating in the sky, which reminds people of rays, so they have this very appropriate name.
They are not necessarily creatures from the material world, and the form observed in the main matter should not be their original body, but what is known is that there is a "shadow space" inside their body, a small world similar to a secret realm.
How strong are they? There is basically no record of direct confrontation. In fact, they seem to be a little afraid to involve humans in their shadow space.
But as bombers, especially strategic bombers that can fly hundreds or thousands of kilometers, their capabilities are qualified.
Now they are causing trouble all over the world, frequently airdropping all sorts of things, sometimes as bait, sometimes as the main attack, and those giant soldiers that look like giants have caused a lot of losses.
The combination of a large grassroots force (octopuses), high-quality advanced war weapons (giants), and highly maneuverable strategic transportation tools (phantom rays) is obviously not accidental, and their complementarity and adaptability are quite strong.
In addition, there are at least three more miscellaneous ethnic groups, but because the threat they pose to humans is not obvious, the Eastern Country officials have not specially classified them.
However, this strategic bomber is constantly achieving results.
"The Sakura Kingdom was attacked suddenly. Its capital was trampled by airdrops of Giant Soldiers. The iconic TV tower has become a ruin. The invaders attacked the power grid and thermal power plants (there are no nuclear weapons in this world), causing a major power outage in the entire capital. Panic and attacks have caused at least 3,000 people to lose contact. The death toll is expected to exceed 20,000."
Lu Ping'an had heard countless such battle reports, but this time, it was a little different.
".Have you started to inform the public?"
In a small roadside noodle shop, Lu Ping'an was watching TV while listening to the news anchor introducing the situation in Sakurajima.
At the same time, the first island chain was attacked in a similar way. The invaders seemed to be testing which direction would be easiest to attack.
Lu Ping'an was thinking, while the other people in the noodle shop were watching intently. Judging from the tension on their faces and the panic in their eyes, they had already thought of the possibility of being attacked.
In fact, after the anchor finished talking about the current situation of attacks in other areas, he also began to popularize various survival knowledge on the spot.
For example, what kind of supplies need to be purchased for storage, how to take shelter in the event of an airdrop attack, or how to start a small generator in the event of a power outage. Various strategic materials have also begun to be released, and you can receive a basic set with your identity proof.
Signal guns, flashlights, and small pistols will probably sell like hot cakes during this period. Firearms are no longer being cared about. In fact, the government has already started organizing target practice training.
Finally, as the war continued to escalate, the Eastern people in the "rear" began to smell the smell of war.
