Chapter 133 The Coming of War

The war came very suddenly, but it was not unexpected by Keilal and Lelouch.

After all, both sides have already begun preparing for this war, so it is not surprising no matter when the Britannia Empire comes.

Two months after Kelal visited District 11 on June 6th. The Brittanian Empire sent troops to the Indian Military District. Their enemy is Lelouch, the 11th prince of the Brittanian Empire. And standing with Lelouch was their former robe.

It can be said that this matter is no longer as simple as a simple war. It was a political struggle over who would be the future emperor of the Bunitalia Empire. Everyone knew in their hearts that the people opposite them were not Indians, but enemies from the same camp as them.

In the past two months, they have been given enough time to choose their own camp. Except for being a staunch advocate of Princess Marianne. Most of the other people were wavering but only united under the great cause of the Emperor of Bunitalia.

But even so, Princess Mariana definitely has many supporters. These people believed extremely that with their support, Lelouch would become the next emperor of the Bunitalia Empire.

This is a battle of beliefs. The winner has everything and the loser has nothing left.

Some of them are opportunists, but under Lelouch’s super power. These people have become hardcore. The spies don’t have to worry at all. Lelouch just needs to do his own thing.

The landing craft of the Bunitalia Empire landed directly from Chennai. The other party obviously wants to take down the port directly. A steady stream of troops are being sent to the Indian Military Region.

Schneizel expected that it would take countless hours to capture this city, but it was actually captured so easily.

The commander of this battle is Schneizel himself. Schneizel is sitting on a command ship dozens of kilometers away from Chennai and directing the entire battle. It’s not that he doesn’t want to believe in Cornelia’s tactical command ability. But as a former sympathizer, admirer and supporter of Princess Marianne. Can Cornelia, who even feels a little guilty about Princess Mariana, really use her full strength to push the entire war situation to a situation beneficial to the Bunitalia Empire?

To be on the safe side, Schneizel asked Cornelia to sit behind Japan to maintain the supply line. And he himself led his army to the Indian Ocean. Prepare to finish the war with Lelouch.

The other party’s eagerness to land on the beach made Keilal and Lelouch laugh. Keilal was right, Schneizel wanted a quick victory. This may not be said to be the wrong decision. But since Keilar and the others guessed correctly, it meant that Schneizel was not well prepared for this tug-of-war.

If he is not prepared enough, he will have a psychological gap. What’s more important is if the weakness of lack of preparation is known to them. Schneizel is in some danger.

And this meant that Schneizel was very poorly prepared for logistics. His understanding of the Indian Military Region and Lelouch was still a few years ago, more than ten years ago.

In his opinion, Lelouch is indeed a smart child, but Lelouch has never experienced a war in these years. I have never experienced political internship. Even going to school should be a bit of a rush, without a complete and systematic study.

Such an opponent, even if he has the support of Keilal, as long as he is not the kind of naked one. Schneizel had nothing to fear from him.

He mobilized two legions, about 60,000 people, and thousands of knightmare. On paper, these aircraft are comparable to all the steel skeletons in the Indian military region. The total number of steel skeletons in the entire Indian military region only amounts to a thousand.

What’s more, Schneizel’s fifth-generation knightmare has a flight pack. When these fifth-generation knightmare with a flight pack attack a fifth-generation knightmare without a flight pack, they are almost a target. The opponent has no weapons at all. The power to fight back.

Sorry, you can really do whatever you want with air superiority.

But what Schneizel didn’t expect was after entering the meridian of Chennai.

The march was supposed to be smooth sailing, but instead it became difficult at every turn.

The first challenge we faced was the muddy road. No, it can’t be regarded as a road at all, it can only be said to be barely suitable for a car to move forward. Just a dirt road. Such paths abound in rural India. There are even some officially repaired roads that have a section like this.

Apparently, it was caused by someone misappropriating funds for road construction. This kind of road is something Bunitalian people have never felt or experienced before. You know, even the country roads in the Bunitalia Empire are all asphalt cement roads. The bottom is laid with sand, then cement, and the top is asphalt. The load-bearing capacity can reach 20 tons. But here, even the main road is a mud road, which really makes the people of the Britannia Empire miserable.

These roads first destroyed most of the delivery trucks in the Britannian Empire. Because it was during the war, those knightmare did not get on the truck, but when those knightmare were moving forward on the ground, their pulleys were caught in the mud and caused the rollers to roll. The failures did not occur at the same time.

Some pilots from the Britannia Empire directly took the knightmare into the air. Floating in the sky, accompanying the large army slowly advancing.

They are indeed very dignified and graceful. It can also operate with ground troops on the grounds of monitoring the ground from the sky.

But that’s all Lelouch wanted.

In the dense forest on both sides of the road. There are already many dark-skinned Indian soldiers wearing them. Multifunctional display. After they marked the machines in the sky, they began to mark the troops on the ground.

Maybe they were scouts. But they alone can’t deal with the knightmare in the sky. But it was different after they marked it.

Look at the red mark above the enemy’s head and the blue mark on your side. The commander lurking in the dense forest took out a button and pressed it.

Everyone wearing this helmet has a Chinese character – Free Fire – appearing in front of their eyes.

He picked up the electromagnetic rifle. This group of infantrymen ambushed on both sides of the dense forest. Aiming at the Brittanian soldiers walking on the road.

Only the sound of whizzing was heard coming from all directions. This kind of gunshot was completely different from ordinary gunshots. The soldiers of the Britannian Empire did not react for a moment.

Unable to react, they suffered a large number of casualties in an instant without finding a bunker.
