Chapter 40: Chapter 40 Zhao Ming: Want revenge? Then study Blitzkrieg!
Not only were the netizens confused, even the Federation Military watching the live stream were perplexed.
Circumventing the Maginot Line isn’t exactly an ingenious trick; anyone could think of it.
After all, with such strong firepower, no one foolish would attack the Maginot Line head-on.
But what happens next after bypassing it?
Marching swiftly westwards, breaking through the whole French Federation, and surrounding the Anglo-French Federation’s main forces with the main troops—no one saw that coming.
It seemed like a fanciful idea, yet it succeeded, astonishing many people in the live stream room.
[So this is what Blitzkrieg is? Is this how my Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth got breached?]
[This mobility left no time for the Anglo-French Federation to react at all.]
[Didn’t react in time and got their retreat cut off, the entire situation instantly reversed.]
[Here’s a joke... The Imperial method against the French Federation resulted in Belgium and the Netherlands disappearing.]
[...Really? They are indeed gone, I didn’t even notice until you said it, when did that happen?]
[You really understand dark humor, laughing to death.]
A group of netizens watching the live stream couldn’t recover from the sudden reversal of the situation.
The Maginot Line of the French Federation became a fixture, the allied forces of the Federation had been defeated by the Empire through Belgium and pushed back to Dunkirk, with the Armored Army led by Guderian severing the Anglo-French Federation’s retreat.
About 400,000 Anglo-French Federation soldiers were isolated and stranded in Dunkirk.
What awaits them seems to be only a road to death.
At this moment, within the game.
Mo Xiaomo, following the armored forces commanded by Guderian, was approaching Dunkirk.
Begun to encounter the resistance of the Anglo-French Federation troops.
The battle scenario would not be skipped like a routine journey; Mo Xiaomo stayed inside the communication vehicle, holding binoculars to show the live stream the battle scene outside.
The 19th Armored Army Group she was with had already halted progress, blocked right there.
Cutting off the retreat of the Anglo-French alliance.
Guderian wanted to press on but was ordered by the Imperial Leader to halt.
Mo Xiaomo peered through the binoculars at the defeated remnants of the Anglo-French army:
"This is already the sixth wave."
"Will they keep charging?"
Live stream comments rolled.
[If they don’t charge, then what—wait for death?]
[Doomed, all these 400,000 are going to die.]
[The Empire is not known for being merciful.]
[That’s 400,000 people. Surely they wouldn’t kill them all...]
[Who knows? I’m not the Supreme Leader.]
Mo Xiaomo was watching the battlefield when suddenly a progress prompt of 50% appeared.
"Huh?"
"What’s this?"
Mo Xiaomo turned her gaze towards the prompt, watching the progress indication.
Suddenly, Guderian’s photo from the Hall of Fame appeared in front of Mo Xiaomo and her viewers in the live stream room.
[Heinz Wilhelm Guderian (Unlocking in Progress)]
[Title: Father of Blitzkrieg, Eagle of the Empire, Father of the Imperial Armored Corps]
[Rank: General of the Army]
[Biography: He is one of the Empire’s three great generals, the modern founder of ’Blitzkrieg’, who once swept across Europe using ’Blitzkrieg’, creating invincible legends, yet failed at the gates of the Soviet Union, later relieved due to disagreements with the Supreme Leader over ideologies.]
[Famous Quote: Lay down arms and roll away from the road; I don’t have time to take you prisoner!]
[Exclusive Storyline: To Be Unlocked]
[Exclusive Biography: To Be Unlocked]
[Note: Immersing in the storyline gives a chance to unlock famous figures of World War II, with unique storylines and biography CG after unlocking (perhaps you will become an adjutant beside Father of Blitzkrieg Guderian, learning the ultimate blitz tactics, of course... you also have opportunities to approach other high-ranked officials of the Empire.)]
[Unlock Progress: Poland Campaign (Completed), Battle of France (50%), Battle of Kiev (Not Completed), Battle of Moscow (Not Completed), Battle of Kursk (Not Completed)]
Compared to when you hadn’t participated in the storyline Hall of Fame.
Now it’s entered unlocking status, showing the unlock progress.
Poland Campaign (Completed), Battle of France (50%), with the subsequent campaigns still being in unfinished status.
Mo Xiaomo looked at the unlock progress, eyes lit up:
"The Hall of Fame unlock involves participating in storylines related to this famous figure, right?"
"So... Poland Campaign should be Blitzkrieg Poland."
"Battle of France is ongoing, judging by this order, it should be arranged according to time, right?"
"Battle of Moscow is listed after Battle of Kiev."
"Then to unlock the Battle of Moscow storyline, it’ll take some time; there’s the Battle of Kiev to participate in first."
Live stream comments floated by.
[My word, being the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth’s Prime Minister and getting thrashed by the Empire counts as done?]
[Why wouldn’t it count? Just say whether Mo Xiaomo participated or not.]
[That’s true... The major focus of the Poland Campaign was on her.]
[In that case, everyone could meet the Hall of Fame Guderian’s first condition. But luck is needed for the subsequent ones; some Federation players, or those who don’t have direct confrontations with the Empire, can’t participate, hence can’t unlock it.]
[This game is quite insidious, not revealing unlock conditions upfront, if not for Mo Xiaomo participating in this Battle of France that triggered a prompt, who knew how Guderian could be unlocked?]
[The game company and its style... Not okay, I have to go to Federation Headline to rant about Zhao Ming, can’t go a day without complaining, can’t the game be updated faster?!]
[No rush, with so many players, there’s always someone who’s grinding intensely.]
Polestar Game Company.
Inside the office.
Zhao Ming was browsing through the backend data, ten days had already passed within the game, but apart from skipped journey and daily routines, Mo Xiaomo had only broadcasted for a morning session in reality.
The Battle of France was halfway through, so through a backend filter.
From when Guderian bypassed the Maginot Line, there had been over 700,000 people leaving comments and analyzing battle situations on the official website all morning.
But after the rapid crossing of the Maas River and turning west, more than 600,000 were eliminated.
Less than 100,000 remained, and during the attack on Saint-Quentin, more than half of them analyzed incorrectly.
Until Amiens was captured and the strategic intention became clearer.
Finally, there were thousands of people who guessed the subsequent action; however, when guessing Guderian’s strategic intent after occupying Abbeville and continuing forward, everyone was screened out.
Though many, analyzing from Guderian’s perspective.
Already analyzed correctly.
However, the sudden command from the Imperial Leader caught everyone off guard.
The Imperial Leader forbade Guderian from advancing further.
Instantly disqualifying everyone.
But fortunately, the Dunkirk Evacuation was upcoming, with options like how long France can hold, coming when the game storyline reaches that moment, allowing live stream viewers to guess or speculate.
Finally selecting a group with the most accurate predictions for rewards.
Everyone in the live stream room had already seen how Blitzkrieg played out, guessing then many are pondering how to counter it, the pit for [Blitzkrieg Poland] was already dug.
This time Blitzkrieg was merely a single-line assault, without any segmenting visualizations.
Furthermore, it was never declared that the National War Dungeon of [Blitzkrieg Poland] would make players play as a Prime Minister again....
Tsk...
Just curious to see if players get crushed by tanks then.
How much Emotion Value could be generated?
Zhao Ming’s lips curled with a smile, opened Federation Headline, logged into his account, and began to edit:
[Having seen the entire Blitzkrieg, everyone study how to counter it, I’m looking forward to some players avenging the Empire in [Blitzkrieg Poland]~]
