Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 227
227. Chapter 227, 1 hour and 22 minutes speed run
Pierre could hardly imagine such a thing.
The aircraft owned by the Alliance, called the Wind Falcon, was really too powerful.
Not only were they fast and large, they also had thick armor for aircraft, fierce firepower, and the key was that they could hold a lot of things!
That Wind Falcon was loaded with at least half an infantry platoon!
Nearly twenty soldiers were lowered down by the rope. They were armed with weapons and deployed a defensive formation on the spot, blocking several entrances and exits around them, and firing at distant targets.
Because they were too far away, Pierre could not see the firing situation, but he could see that another Wind Falcon landed and released more than twenty soldiers.
After unloading the troops, the Wind Falcon pulled up some altitude, and the machine guns on it fired at certain locations, assisting the ground troops and suppressing the Polar Industrial Guard.
Then, there were also ground infantry lurking in the city, who came to join together and helped to further expand the scope of the entire landing field.
In this way, it would be very convenient for the subsequent Wind Falcon to drop more soldiers.
At this moment, there was even enough space for four or five of these huge aircraft to land at the same time. There was no need to use ropes to land, they could just land directly on the ground, open the hatch, and let the soldiers inside run out quickly.
This was much faster than using ropes to land soldiers.
What scared Pierre the most was that if each of those Falcon speedboats was loaded with 20 to 30 soldiers, then… with a hundred Falcons in the sky, could two to three thousand soldiers be airdropped?
Add to that the troops that had previously infiltrated the city…
that would make a total of almost five thousand people!
When there were only two thousand people, Pierre could still stiffen his neck and say that it was a bit arrogant to want to capture the Polar Industrial City with just these
two thousand people. But now, if the number had more than doubled, he couldn’t say it.
But at this moment, the head nun had to deal another blow to his soul.
“The 31st Airborne Division’s action is just a prelude. Their mission is not to completely capture the entire city. They are just the vanguard. They only need to occupy and control the main part of the city with the support of the Air Force, or even just control the core area. Next, they will turn to guard these areas and wait for the support of the main force.”
“You also received intelligence before, right? The Alliance has a main force that is continuing to move north. I can tell you that it is the Alliance’s 9th Garrison Division, 30th, 32nd, 33rd Infantry Divisions, and the 36th Mechanized Brigade. A total of 50,000 troops, all kinds of artillery and armored forces are complete. The Alliance has newly produced and put into use Lion tanks, 18 of them. They will go all the way north to the outside of the Polar Industrial City. With the cooperation of the 31st Airborne Division in the city, they will eventually conquer the entire city.”
Sister Grit carefully explained the subsequent strategic plan to Pierre in detail.
While she was narrating, the door of the president’s office was knocked.
The person who came was not the guard that President Pierre expected, but the battle sister.
After the door opened, a team of about ten nuns entered his office. One of them was holding the weapons that Grit had left at the security office when she came to see him.
A grenade launcher and a “holy golden halberd”.
With these two weapons, she was fully armed.
What made Pierre’s heart beat even more panicked was how did these nuns get up there? Was
their headquarters building… also destroyed?
What was the overall situation now?
Why was it that at this moment, none of the scenes he saw from the window and the situation he saw in his office were beneficial to the Polar Industries Group?
Was everything really over?
Just as he was thinking about this, the head nun turned around and asked him a soul-searching question: “Mr. President, have you seen the situation clearly now?”
“I…”
Pierre didn’t know what to say.
Grit said to herself, “It doesn’t matter if you can’t see clearly. Anyway, I have explained it to you very clearly. If you want to turn the tables, you must first pray that someone can rescue you from me so that you can restore the command system of your entire group; or, you have to hope that someone in your group can stand up and integrate all the power of your group when your headquarters cannot speak out.”
“Only by doing this and ending the scattered guards in the Polar Industrial City, will you be qualified to come back to the table.”
“Then, you have to drive the 31st Airborne Division out of the city within three days, with the fire support of the Alliance Air Force.”
“If you fail to do so, the main force of the Alliance will arrive in three days, and you will not have another chance.”
“And even if you do it, it will depend on whether you can withstand the hundreds of heavy artillery of the Alliance, plus the uninterrupted air strikes, and the siege operation led by the Lion tanks.”
“Okay, after listening to all this, Mr. Pierre, do you have any thoughts?”
Pierre sighed deeply: “What else do I have to think? I dare not think of anything!”
Grit smiled: “That’s it, if you have made up your mind, please broadcast through the city-wide communication channel of your headquarters building, and as the president of your group, order the entire city to stop resisting.”
Pierre seemed to be struggling.
Grit could see that the president was still unwilling.
So, she added more strength: “President Pierre, I disdain to lie, everything I said before is true. However, your attention seems to be a little distracted, so that you overlooked an important information I mentioned.”
“We accelerated our actions this time, and even launched such a radical raid on the Polar Industrial City because things have changed, because we are about to leave the planet, and we want to solve the cult problem before that.”
“These factors are not directed at you, or your Polar Industrial Group.”
“Although objectively, the alliance is now using force, you still have room for negotiation. The sooner you cooperate, the sooner you order to stop resisting, and the sooner you drag things into the negotiation process, the more room you can gain.” “
On the contrary, end the battle as soon as possible, define it as a conflict, and strive for a peaceful environment, then you will have more room for negotiation with the alliance next.”
“What should I choose specifically, I believe you will definitely think it through in your mind, Mr. President. But you don’t have much time.”
Pierre pondered.
His eyelids twitched and he kept looking out the window. The changes in that small piece of the battle situation gradually broke his mind.
He admitted all the facts that Sister Grit said, and all the deductions were the most likely.
What else could he do?
In the end, what completely broke his mind was that he saw a wind falcon landing and lowering twelve giants in red power armor.
He knew what it was, so he was completely desperate and extinguished the last bit of luck in his heart.
He finally said with difficulty: “Okay…Okay, I’ll go and send a city-wide notice…”
Grit looked at the time. From the official start of the operation to now, a total of 1 hour and 22 minutes.
She smiled and said to Pierre: “You made the right choice.”
