Anti-War Game: Starting from Normandy Campaign-Chapter 537 - 256: [Second Phase Federation Offensive]

Chapter 537: Chapter 256: [Second Phase Federation Offensive]

I hope those war-crazed fanatics on Blue Star are as formidable as they boast online, and don’t end up throwing up when they see someone getting beheaded....

And if anyone actually gets unusually excited due to those terrorists’ methods.

The game will document it.

And it will be uploaded to the backend, which will then be synchronized with the safety center of the Great Xia Federation for focused monitoring.

Testing those war-promoting fanatics through the game is an innovative approach by Polestar.

....

A few days later.

On the Celestial Shark Live Platform.

In the "Modern War: World Dominator" division.

Upon entering the division, the live stream screens are densely packed, mostly filled with scenes of endless yellow sand, and a large portion is in the middle of battles.

It’s been over 10 days since the game server launched.

The in-game airstrike has already been going on for nearly 30 days.

The Blue Star gamers have completely given up.

They’ve tried every method, but they can’t stop the dimensional reduction strikes from the United States, and after resisting for over 10 days, the Blue Star gamers suddenly realized something was off.

They can’t match the consumption levels of the United States!

Originally intending to hold on tenaciously, the Blue Star players suddenly thought of the Peninsula War. Given the weapon and ammo consumption of the United States back then,

If thrown at the current Iraq Federation, even Iraq might not withstand it.

Let alone now, it’s already 1991, 40 years after the Peninsula War.

The tech weapons of the United States have developed to such a level, and their ammo stockpiles are just basic; what’s the point of fighting?

The Blue Star players just gave up, turning to gather various intelligence, waiting to see how the NPCs of the Iraq Federation would command.

So, during the airstrike period, the Blue Star gamers collected quite a bit of intelligence from 1991.

In 1990, which is the previous year according to the game’s storyline, many countries in Europe began to break away from the Eastern bloc, including the Eastern Empire.

The Eastern Empire and the Western Empire completed a merger last year.

This empire, divided since the end of World War II in 1945, finally reunited after more than 40 years.

Then, starting in 1980, the United States astonishingly initiated some ’Star Wars’ plan, intending to develop space weapons.

However, the Blue Star gamers didn’t have complete information, but they were still shocked to see this.

What the hell?

To what extent has the United States developed technologically?

They’re developing space weapons in the 80s?

You have to realize it’s only the 90s in the timeline.

Looking at it this way.

The high-tech weapons the U.S. is using against the Iraq Federation are nothing, considering they’re dealing with space, not just small surface skirmishes.

Little did they know.

This is merely a strategy by the U.S. to drain the Soviet Union economically.

But the Blue Star players don’t know that.

Looking at the intelligence on their phones, over the past 40 years, it has still been a standoff between the two major blocs.

However, with the unification of the Eastern and Western Empires.

It seems Europe has already determined a victor, along with the so-called ’Star Wars’ plan of the United States.

The last four words of "Modern War: World Dominator" are now truly apt.

At this moment.

The U.S.’s airstrikes against Iraq Federation in the game are reaching their end.

In Lei Cheng’s live stream room.

On the radar screen behind him, there are still symbols of U.S. fighter jets flying all over Iraqi Federation airspace, following this period of bombing.

The skies over Iraq Federation are now American.

But that’s not the key point.

The key point is that the U.S. is preparing to launch a ground offensive.

Due to the early promotion by Lei Cheng’s side.

The live stream room is packed, with comments ceaselessly urging him to quickly reveal more information from the Blue Star audience.

Seeing that the agreed time had come, Lei Cheng didn’t hesitate.

He threw out several deployment maps, displaying them in the live stream room:

"Here we go, guys."

"This is the current deployment situation of the Iraq Federation."

The Blue Star audience in the live stream room was dumbfounded seeing Iraq Federation’s defense setup.

Previously, although knowing Iraq Federation stationed most forces in Kuwait, there wasn’t a visual impression, but now with this map....

It’s so straightforward.

Kuwait, such a small place, is densely packed with armored units.

Apart from the vast desert areas near Iraq Federation.

All around Kuwait, Iraqi forces are heavily stationed, even neglecting their own home to defend Kuwait.

From the map, we can see the Iraq-Kuwait border.

There are some forces at the Saudi border but moving west towards the Saudi Federation border shows large gaps with no defense forces.

Lei Cheng says:

"The current situation is that Iraq Federation has pressed all their forces into Kuwait."

"We don’t know what they’re thinking."

"Not defending their own territory; are they betting that the U.S. won’t attack Iraq Federation homeland?"

"Well, unfortunately...."

"Iraq Federation bet wrong."

"Let’s look at the U.S. ground forces deployment."

With that, Lei Cheng threw out another map.

Displaying it in the live stream room.

And this map shows the U.S. troop deployment in Saudi Arabia.

Lei Cheng laughed and said:

"The U.S. troops here are old friends."

"Players who just switched over from World War II should still be familiar."

"That’s right."

"The U.S. units creating a feint attack to confuse the Kuwaiti forces are none other than the 1st Cavalry Division."

"The myth of the undefeated division, which was shattered by the Volunteer Army in the 40-year-old Peninsula Battlefield’s Battle of Yunshan, means their combat prowess is no joke."

"Now acting as a feint force to attract the attention of the Iraq Federation troops."

"As for why it’s a feint force...."

"Let’s take a look at this western region."

Saying this, Lei Cheng pointed to the west of Iraq Federation.

He casually drew two curving blue arrows on the map for emphasis.

In the west.

There’s also a large gathering of U.S. forces, seemingly even more than in the east.

Lei Cheng began:

"Because the focus of Iraq Federation has been placed on Kuwait."

"This led to the borders being exceptionally vulnerable, almost no garrison."

"So the U.S. strategy here is for the main eastern forces to feign a strong attack on Kuwait, drawing Iraq’s attention, making them think the united forces are primarily attacking Kuwait."

"Subsequently."

"The 200,000 troops stationed in Saudi Arabia will directly plunge into the rear of Iraq Federation, cutting off the road between Nasiriyah and Kuwait."

"Severing the logistic supplies to Kuwait."

"We can see from the map."

"Because it’s all desert, the main road is that one between Nasiriyah and Kuwait."

"As long as this road is cut off, the supply to the 600,000 strong Iraq Federation forces in Kuwait will be severed, simultaneously cutting their connection to the capital command center."

"This operation is almost bound not to fail."

"Because Iraq Federation here really isn’t defending."

Lei Cheng looked at the deployment of Iraq Federation, his expression odd, not knowing what to say.

600,000 troops, all piled in Kuwait.

Indeed.

No matter where the united forces attack, the massive troop presence in Kuwait would permit rapid reinforcement to the rear, making a hard fight nearly impossible.

So... the U.S. doesn’t engage in tough fights.

Feigning an attack on Kuwait, the main forces directly move into the heartland of Iraq Federation.

Most of Iraq Federation’s forces are already holed up in Kuwait, and whatever they use for defenses elsewhere, the U.S. major forces can just infiltrate.

If the Kuwaiti forces aren’t redeployed back, then the U.S. really can easily manipulate Iraq Federation.

But if the forces in Kuwait Federation are redeployed, Iraq Federation’s foolishness only becomes more apparent as they get spun around by the U.S.

And the most critical issue right now is communication, the network, the connection between the front and back lines being cut, means the tens of thousands of Iraq Federation troops in Kuwait will be stranded without command.
