(Elaria POV)
We had no space for rcy.
??
These lowlife, good for nothing scum deserved none for taking my precious Onii-sama away from .
My people thought as much too.
Thus, we were as rciless as possible in this war.
The fortress they had built behind the Death Mountain Pass quickly fell to the combined artillery and tank assault.
Anyone that was there was shot, we took absolutely no prisoners.
None of the Dong soldiers had a chance to surrender before we shot them down. Even if they did, we wouldn't have accepted their surrender either.
The tank column and mobile infantry imdiately advanced down the road, any stragglers we found were also shot and killed without rcy.
If there were any fortunate ones left when the Queen's army showed up to secure our supply lines, they will be the ones taken prisoner to be interrogated.
All of my senior sisters and I pushed forward with the advancing column, taking the shortest route towards their capital city while capturing their most important locations along the way.
"General, a group of soldiers are bunkered in the farmhouse up ahead. They're using the farrs there as human shields against us."
I reined in my horse and looked down at the captain reporting the news, "Why do they think that using heretics as shields would work? Take two Sherman Crocodile tanks and burn that building. That should send them running out. Once they do, shoot the soldiers."
"And the farrs?"
"If they are hostile, shoot them too."
"Yes General."
The officer scurried off to obey, relaying my orders to the soldiers under his command.
"Ara, ara? You could have just asked to burn the entire place down, you know?" Manami chuckled beside .
I grinned at her, "It's good for my people to learn and get used to such things. This would be our first official campaign after all."
I watched two tanks veer off from the main column with a group of soldiers following behind it, the small group heading for a farmhouse just off the road.
One of the Dong soldiers peeked out from the farmhouse window and shot an arrow that bounced off the tank's mantlet harmlessly.
There was a shout, presumably the Dong soldier warning my soldiers to stay away, but no one paid him any heed.
The two tanks stopped a distance away and levelled their turrets at the building.
Two gouts of flas blasted out from their barrels, setting the entire house alight.
Screams ca out from within the house and several seconds later, a few Dong soldiers ran out from the front door, one of them still burning.
My n shot them all without a mont's hesitation,letting the farrs run out of their hos and away unmolested.
We pushed on from there, continuing our advance to our next target.
Lian Li rode her horse up to , "We're taking a city next, right?"
I nodded, "It's one of their trading cities. If we take that before they can start moving supplies out, we can secure that for ourselves and push on without waiting for Guiying to secure this place."
"Hmm… We would need to take a few months for a siege, won't we?" Eris pointed out.
I laughed, "Not with around! We'll need to secure this place especially though. A lot of good, flat ground around here that we can use."
"What would you need that type of ground for? Farming?"
I placed my finger on my lips, "Ehehe~ It's a surprise~ But it'll help us a lot in the coming days~"
Eris shrugged and asked no further, losing interest.
We travelled in silence for a few miles more before encountering a company of horsen that walked straight into our column.
They seed just as surprised to see us as we were of them, but since they were wearing uniforms that signify their status as soldiers, we opened fire on them.
The machine guns on top of the tanks made short work of them, mowing them down like weeds to a scythe.
One of them managed to sohow survive the hail of bullets and turned to flee before a golden lightning bolt struck him down.
"Gee~ Now you're just showing off, senior sister~" I whined.
Lian Li shrugged, "Can't expect to do nothing now, can you?"
I pointed in the direction they had ca from, "Those should be forward scouts, that ans there should be a bigger force coming from behind them. We'll need to get ready for another battle."
Diao Chan looked a little doubtful, "You sure? They might just be a patrol of the city or sothing?"
I shook my head, "A city's patrol wouldn't wander this far away from it. What's more, they were carrying no supplies of their own, which ans they weren't supposed to be staying away from what they are scouting for for a long period of ti. That can an two things..."
The Witch raised an eyebrow at , "Which is?"
"They are a scout party for an advancing army, or they are scouts for a nearby military base. Either way, it ans that there will be a battle afoot."
Kiyomi looked at with a weird face, "Since when were you so familiar with the art of war?"
"Oh! You can thank Onii-sama for that! To think Onii-sama foresaw such a thing and took such ti and effort to train ! All those board gas were just a front for the military strategies I would co to learn! Onii-sama truly is Divine!"
"Papa best Papa!" Cai Hong exclaid, the loli dragon riding in front of Manami.
Manami patted Cai Hong on the head, "Yes, yes. We know you have been studying as well, Cai Hong."
"Ehehe~ Cai Hong will be good girl for Papa! Cai Hong will 'conqwer' the world for Papa!"
Such a good girl my Onii-sama has raised!
I raised my hand, "All troops! Change heading to Northwest! We'll take out whatever that's there before we siege the city!"
A chorus of 'hurrahs' echoed throughout the mobile column and all vehicles turned to the direction I ordered.
We crested over a hill to find an assault group marching towards us, all of them imdiately moving into battle formations.
"Hmm, probably two battalions," I mused, unhooking the radio microphone from my saddle. "We're going to have to wipe them out, the city must not know we are coming until everything is ready."
"Shall we participate too?" Lian Li suggested, her hands cackling with golden lightning.
I gestured, "If they don't have the anti-Technique barrier, be my guest."
Lian Li made a face, "Stupid Dongs and their barriers, it's making feel useless. We'll just watch then."
I shrugged and pressed the button on the radio, "All units, line up on the hill crest. Fire at will."
Ah~~ The sounds of a few hundred tanks firing at the sa ti was absolutely glorious! If only Onii-sama can hear this!
