Boom! A violent explosion rang out.
Harris sat bolt upright in bed, only to realize that it was just a nightmare from the previous night.
But when Harris saw his surroundings and the time on the clock, his face stiffened, and he hurriedly got out of bed despite the pain.
It's already past eight o'clock.
Hearing the commotion, the soldiers at the door quickly opened it. Harris, pale-faced, ran towards the door, screaming:
"Has no one been evacuated?"
The soldiers shook their heads.
Harris was both anxious and furious, and immediately ordered the soldiers to take him to Davis.
A moment later, inside the main factory, Harris met Davis, and upon seeing him, he urgently said:
"Why haven't they started evacuating yet?!"
Davis's expression was grave as he said in a deep voice, "We cannot evacuate. The Macedonian military factory is of vital importance to the country. How can we abandon it?"
Harris, both anxious and furious, rushed forward and shouted, "Damn Yan people have landed! Did I not make myself clear?!"
“Lieutenant General Harris, while you were unconscious, I questioned your soldiers about last night’s battle. According to them, the number of Yan Kingdom soldiers who landed was not particularly large, and they had been fighting you all night. I don’t think they will immediately deploy the next step of the operation.”
Upon hearing this, Harris angrily exclaimed, "The Yan people said this to you?!"
Davis's expression changed, but he still calmly replied:
"Although our Macedonian military factory only has 6,000 permanent troops, it has more than 80,000 workers. They are not the slaves in the shipyard. The workers here are all former soldiers. When they are not engaged in production work, they are soldiers."
"This is a military factory. We have plenty of weapons and ammunition. We can fight for months without worrying about ammunition depletion!"
Harris's expression froze as soon as he finished speaking.
Davis continued, “Lieutenant General, I know what you’ve been through, and I know you fought a very brave battle for Foster Harbor, but please believe me, our Macedonian arsenal is in no way inferior to a military base.”
"Perhaps you don't understand enough, which is why you want us to leave immediately, but unless it's absolutely necessary, we absolutely cannot abandon the factory."
"Furthermore, even if we were to evacuate the weapons and ammunition here, it would require a higher-level order. Until then, I am not considering evacuation. Instead, we should use the Macedonian military factory as a base to deploy a front to intercept the Yan Kingdom's offensive routes!"
Seeing Colonel Davis utter such courageous and fearless words, Harris didn't know whether to be happy or worried.
Everything he had experienced last night told him that the enemy was like a tiger, and after completely suppressing the port, it only took four hours for the port to fall. In addition, during the battle with the enemy's vanguard, Harris discovered that their ground forces were equally powerful, even capable of crushing his own ground forces.
Therefore, even though only tens of thousands of them landed, Harris did not dare to underestimate them.
Moreover, who knows if they will have any follow-up landing troops?
At this moment, Davis walked over to Harris and said to him:
"Don't worry, Lieutenant General, the factory will never fall. Not only will it not fall, but we will also use it as a base to wipe out the Yan people who enter our territory. I can't speak for the sea, but on land, our army has a huge advantage."
“I have already notified the workers to stop working. They are being armed and will form a temporary force to guard the factory with us.”
"Not only that, I have already sent people to the Heinrich military base. Before they send troops, we are only responsible for guarding the factory. After the reinforcements arrive, we will work together to wipe out the enemy troops that have entered the country!"
After hearing these words, Harris's initial shock and anger gradually subsided, and he began to calm down.
It must be said that Davis did consider things more thoroughly. It would be too easy to abandon the Macedonian military factory just because the Yan people entered the country.
As a vital national resource, the Macedonian military factories produce weapons for the entire nation's army. The weapons stored here are enough to equip multiple units, making it a good idea to use them as a base for defense and counterattacks.
Seeing Harris remain silent, Davis continued to offer words of comfort:
"Alright, Lieutenant General, I know your concerns."
"But you also need to know that things haven't developed to the point where we have to evacuate the factory, at least the Yan people haven't appeared in front of us yet."
"We have not yet had a formal confrontation with them on this land, and everything is still uncertain."
"I am deeply saddened by the fall of the port, but who would have thought that the Yan people would not go to Brulow Port, but instead come to Foster Port? In any case, the fall of Foster Port will not last long, and we will take it back soon."
"And the Yan people who have already entered the country..."
At this point, Davis's face darkened, then he roared with boundless pride:
"We will expel them all!"
"No! Annihilate them all!"
Hearing these inspiring words, Harris's anxious heart finally calmed down. Although he was still worried, as Davis said, fighting around the military factory seemed to be able to stop the Yan people's offensive route.
With a "bang".
Without warning, Harris fainted again.
"Quickly! Send Lieutenant General Harris back to rest. He has fought bravely all night. We will now take over his responsibilities. If the Yan people dare to target this place, we will annihilate them all!"
"However many come! Eliminate them all!!"
Davis waved his hand and shouted loudly.
——
Foster Harbour.
After the successful landing operation last night, the Yan Army has taken full control of the port, and in the next few hours, they began to deploy defensive lines around the harbor to ensure that the fruits of victory could be safely secured.
Meanwhile, a newly formed army unit, led by Qin Ze, was heading to its next destination: the Macedonian military factory!
As the army marched forward, Qin Ze looked up ahead. A moment ago, he could still see black smoke in the sky, but now the black smoke had disappeared. Clearly, something had happened at the Macedonian military factory.
But that's not important.
His gaze slowly descended as Qin Ze looked at the tank battalion advancing ahead. Hundreds of tanks loaded with heavy artillery were rolling across the ground, the clanging of metal echoing continuously. The thick, bronze-colored barrels reflected a golden light in the sunlight.
Next, these long-range heavy artillery pieces will clear the way for the army, blasting the Macedonian arms factory that manufactures weapons into ruins.
That's what's important.
