The Plane War Begins from Wandering Earth

Chapter 101 100. Planting a Flag on Mount Fuji

East Asia, Chiba Prefecture, the outermost part of the Tokyo metropolitan area.

Yoshimura Ryoichi was lying on the tank commander's observation port, looking at the sea at the end of the horizon.

He is the commander of the Type 10 main battle tank and the commander of the three-person crew.

Three days ago, his tank regiment was sent to Chiba Prefecture and stationed here.

The last order they received was three days ago, requiring them to block any possible enemies.

The interruption of military satellite and network signals has made large-scale military deployment extremely difficult.

Long-distance radio communications were severely interfered with, and short-distance radio communications were limited by range issues, making it impossible to communicate with superiors in a timely manner.

Yoshimura Ryoichi didn't know the situation of other tank regiments, but the regiment he was in hadn't received any transfer orders from his superiors for a long time.

From being nervous and anxious at the beginning, Yoshimura Ryoichi has become calmer now.

"Anyway, no matter how much I worry, it won't change the course of the war. I'm just an insignificant tank commander."

As he thought this, Yoshimura Ryoichi was gradually attracted by the conversation between his two men inside the tank below him.

Compared to him, who still had a sense of responsibility and was worried about the battle situation, the other two crew members were more concerned about what to eat next.

The military rations are definitely not delicious, they can only fill the stomach.

Two soldiers who were attracted to join the army by the propaganda of two-dimensional paper people talked about the last bite of sushi and sashimi they had before the war, the crab feast in Hokkaido, and finally the hot spring female body mori they experienced in Kyoto.

Yoshimura Ryoichi couldn't help rolling his eyes as he heard the obscene laughter of his two subordinates in low voices.

'These abandoned houses are truly beyond saving.'

Yoshimura Ryoichi has never had any expectations for his subordinates' combat effectiveness.

The "Bushido spirit" has been completely swept into the trash heap and can only be seen in historical films and documentaries.

Regarding this war, not only Yoshimura Ryoichi, a frontline combatant, but most people are pessimistic.

“I heard that the enemy has planted a flag on Mount Fuji.

Judging from the distance, if it reaches us, it shouldn't take too long, right?"

“I hope we won’t become their main target.

Our entire tank regiment only has 60 tanks, and I heard that their armored group has at least 300 tanks."

"Are you dreaming? The place where we are stationed is the gateway to the Tokyo metropolitan area. How could they let us go?"

"Ugh……"

Inside the main battle tank, the driver and the gunner finally talked about the current situation instead of food. Their pessimism about the future made the atmosphere quiet for a moment.

“In fact, maybe surrender would be a good option.

I don't want to die in vain.

Defeat in the war would only mean another country becoming our enemy.

If North America is gone, there will always be other countries.”

“In the past, North America would have come to mediate.

But now, I heard that a civil war has broken out in North America, and all satellite network communications have been interrupted, so no one knows what is happening on the other side of the ocean.

Maybe the politicians who ordered us to come here to garrison and block the enemy are now considering how to end this war in a decent way..."

As the conversation below became more and more "treasonous", Yoshimura Ryoichi, as the tank commander, finally couldn't help but prepare to scold.

But the radio communication device at hand happened to make a sound. "Zizizi... A large number of enemy ships appeared on the sea in the northeast... Zizizizi... The superiors did not give our 3rd Tank Regiment an order to retreat... Prepare to meet the impact of the armored group in the northeast..."

The voice on the radio finally put Yoshimura Ryoichi's heart to rest.

In the direction of the sea level in the distance, shadows did begin to appear.

However, what really made Yoshimura Ryoichi feel desperate was that a large number of enemy warships had already approached the defense circle's cordon, but there was no sign of any interception or attack.

There was no long-range artillery, missiles, or interception by fighter jets.

"Asshole, are you really going to let us fight alone?"

Yoshimura Ryoichi began to have infinite doubts whether the situation was really as his subordinates had guessed, that the politicians above had decided to give in and negotiate.

Only these soldiers fighting on the front line were deliberately ignored.

"If the enemy really attacks with a large number of armored groups, what should I do?"

Fighting bravely until the last moment, he was struggling internally between surrendering when there was no alternative.

However, Yoshimura Ryoichi's crew was ultimately unable to see the enemy's armored cluster with their own eyes.

Hundreds or even thousands of tactical suicide drones were the first to fly over the battlefield.

The Type 10 main battle tanks looked quite lonely in the wilderness.

As a high-value target, it was soon attacked by a drone carrying high-explosive armor-piercing shells.

The roar of the 12.7mm heavy machine gun above the tank could not conceal the fear in the crew's hearts.

Just before Yoshimura Ryoichi screamed and ordered to abandon the tank and escape, two suicide drones flew down from top to bottom and easily blew through the thin top armor of the Type 10 main battle tank.

The main battle tank was burning fiercely in the wilderness after the explosion.

Half an hour later, hundreds or even thousands of armored vehicles, including main battle tanks, armored personnel carriers, and amphibious armored vehicles, passed by the still burning Type 10 main battle tank.

A passing armored personnel carrier stopped, and several soldiers with red flag armbands confirmed that the enemy had been burned to charcoal before getting back on the vehicle.

Amid the roar of diesel engines, the armored cluster continued to advance towards the target.

~

The intensity of war in East Asia is much higher than in other regions.

The bloodiness of large-scale conventional warfare is evident in this region.

Under the state of full mobilization, battles involving tens of millions of people are constantly taking place.

Without the threat of precision-guided strategic weapons, the form of warfare is limited to competing in the number of troops, the inventory of armaments and weapons, and the level of military industrial production capacity.

As the number of reserve troops rapidly decreased, it was no longer possible to end the war with dignity.

After dealing with the "rebel" forces in North America and the situation in Europe gradually stabilizing, the coalition government began to turn its attention to East Asia.

This is the area where the second dimension "Wei San" needs the joint government forces to intervene to solve the problem.

The tough nuts have been cracked by the East Asian powers, and the coalition government no longer needs to resort to military suppression.

It highlights the "United" organization's integration of resources in North America and Europe, as well as the existence of strategic weapons such as the space-based weapons "Rod of God" and "Nanoworm Missile".

The East Asian powers eventually threw themselves into the arms of the "United" organization.

At this point, all mainstream countries and regions in the second dimension have been brought under the jurisdiction of the "League of Nations" organization.

In the planning of the coalition government, a "youth version of the coalition government" unique to the second dimension gradually took shape.
