Alien Arms Empire

Chapter 1340: 1341The cruelty of war is right before our eyes

The sirens of firetrucks still echoed constantly at night, and the missiles from the Tang Empire caused greater losses to Wuyang City than imagined.

 Many buildings collapsed, and others were set alight. The fire burned for several hours and was not put out at night.

The people of Wuyang City gathered together and looked numbly at the buildings that were still smoking. What was once their home has now become a ruin.

War has always been far away from here. The Qin State is martial and has always been aggressive and aggressive.

 The people of Qin also advocated martial arts. They were keen on using war to solve problems and showing off their military power. The common people enthusiastically supported the war and hoped that they could change their own destiny through military exploits.

 In fact, Qin's promotion system is very advanced and can almost be said to have taken the prototype of the current army. Their civilians can really rely on military merit to be promoted, and eventually be promoted to their own class.

In quite a wide circle, everyone does not reject this kind of people who fight and risk their lives to gain merit. This kind of social atmosphere makes the people recognize this "military system" model.

But the butcher's knife hurts the most when he cuts it on his own body. He enthusiastically admires war. The reason may be that he has never been beaten.

Qin State has received too many dividends from victory in wars, so they regard wars as a way to obtain benefits from top to bottom. In their subconscious mind, they blocked the possibility of defeat.

 Ever since the Western Wall Fortress defeated the Orc Empire, they have used war to gain benefits from the Great China Empire. Until they invaded Shu and reached the pinnacle of expansion!

This is also the reason why the Qin State dared to challenge the Tang Empire: they won too many, and they were all blinded by the victory.

Now, the ballistic missiles of the Tang Empire fell into Wuyang City. Only then did the common people of Qin realize that they were very close to the war, and the cruelty of the war was finally exposed in front of them.

Those distant victories that only appear in newspapers or on the radio are far less shocking than the houses that collapse in front of us.

 “Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo…” A child could not stop crying no matter how much his mother comforted him. They lost their home and the calmness and calmness of the past.

"Didn't you say that the front line is still in Dahua? Why did the fight come here?" A woman asked the man next to her. She didn't know much about these things and was already a little scared.

Previous news propaganda stated that Tang troops were still fighting Qin near the old capital, but for the Qin people, the old capital was so far away, and the war was still far away from them.

 But what is going on now? How come the war that was far away near the old capital suddenly reached Wuyang City? How could he be burned in front of him all of a sudden?

“Could it be that everything in the newspaper is wrong?” Another old woman then questioned the propaganda in the newspaper.

The literacy rate in the Qin State is actually very low. The literacy rate of the people in the old Qin Dynasty was less than 20%, and most women had never read a book.

Later, the Qin State followed the example of the Tang State in setting up newspapers, and began to send literate people to announce the news at fixed points in the streets and alleys. These women and old people had nothing to do, and their biggest pastime was to gather together and listen to these "stories." The result is that these people who knew nothing in the first place now know only a little. When the news is good, they naturally unite as one. When the news is a little more complicated, rumors begin to spread.

"What nonsense! This thing is called a missile...it can fly very far." The man working in the factory scolded, causing several women around him to shut up.

But he actually felt guilty, because recently the factory had begun to investigate the nature of everyone's work and began to let some children enter the factory to study.

It is nothing more than that the orders for recruitment and mobilization are being implemented more and more strictly. The recruitment office where people were queuing up to sign up on the street has become deserted. The officers of the recruitment department have begun to conduct door-to-door investigations with household registration records...

The atmosphere suddenly became tense at that time. Everyone was panicked and began to question the war news in the newspapers: Since the war was going well, what was going on with such crazy conscription and mobilization?

"The child's father...here, will this missile come again?" The woman didn't care about things far away. She was more worried about whether she would be able to live her life in the future.

If this thing falls every day, then they will not have a good life. Wuyang City in the Qin State was a city that had not experienced war for a long time. The so-called bunkers and fortifications here were really shabby.

Not to mention the underground fortifications, due to the changes of the times, the city walls here have been in disrepair and a large part has even been demolished.

 After all, the development of streets, the expansion of cities, and the rise of factories have made traditional fortifications like city walls lose their meaning and necessity.

However, although most of the city walls were demolished, the construction of air-raid shelters and other underground bunkers did not keep up with the construction: this kind of thing is easy to be ignored. At least Yingduo never thought that his capital would be attacked one day.

 A small number of underground air defense bunkers were built for nobles. However, with the updating of war weapons, ordinary bunkers can no longer meet the needs of refuge.

 As long as they are hit, most bunkers will be destroyed, and the people inside will naturally be in danger. As for the common people, they don't even have a place to hide.

 With nowhere to hide, homeless...the civilians in the Qin capital finally realized the misery of the Chinese in the old capital. They looked at the fire in front of them, and an inexplicable emotion spread in their hearts.

 …

"Check! Check it for me! Find out where that call came from!" Ying Duo angrily scolded the intelligence general in front of him in the temporary transformation headquarters of the manor outside the city.

The other party lowered his head and explained in embarrassment: "Your Majesty! The missile attack just hit the telephone exchange. The situation there is very bad now. The fire has not been extinguished, so the clues must not be preserved."

The ballistic missiles of the Datang Empire were far from that accurate, and the intelligence department of the Datang Empire had no intention of hiding clues. The missile just happened to hit the telephone exchange, causing the Wuyang City telephone system to be interrupted.

  After all, it is very possible for 40 missiles to hit two or three more valuable targets by luck. In addition to this missile, another missile fell on the palace, causing minimal damage.

 Sorry, I overslept.
