"No!" Li Lin immediately saluted and ran out to send a telegram.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

Leclerc took off from Kiev in an airship and headed straight to Kharkov.

This whole road is an area occupied by the French army. Although Ming army planes occasionally come to conduct reconnaissance, under the current circumstances, we have no choice but to risk our lives.

"General, we've arrived in Kursk, are we landing?" the staff officer asked in a low voice, Leclerc, who was resting with his eyes closed.

Now is a rare rest time. Whether I will have a chance to sleep in the next few days is really a matter of course.

"No, keep flying forward. Fly all the way to Podgolensky!" Leclerc didn't even open his eyes.

"General, this is the front line. There are planes from the Ming Army!" the staff officer turned pale with fright.

Ming army aircraft were as good as death to airships.

As long as they are targeted by Ming army aircraft, they will not be able to escape.

Those Ming army aircraft only needed to use the machine guns on the aircraft to break the airbags of the airships.

The airship will fall to the ground like a lead mass. If it falls two to three thousand meters, even its copper skin and iron frame will be smashed into meat patties.

"It's one hundred and fifty kilometers from the command post in Aibok. Do you expect us to ride there on horseback?

Even if we ride there, how long will it take to get there? What should we do if we get lost if we are not familiar with the place?"

Leclerc opened his eyes and scolded the staff officer.

The little staff officer's face turned red and he ordered the pilot to continue moving forward.

Leclerc glanced out the window and saw low dark clouds filling the entire sky.

The sky became terrifyingly dark, and the airship pod began to shake violently.

It can be seen that the wind must be very strong outside.

A fork-shaped lightning suddenly flashed in the sky. Although he hadn't heard the thunder yet, Leclerc was already thinking about the rolling muffled thunder in his head.

"Great!" Leclerc stood up excitedly, but the pod soon shook and forced him to sit down again.

"General, fasten your seat belt, there's a strong wind blowing outside." The staff officer walked over, swaying from side to side.

"It's raining!

It's raining!

Haha, it's raining!" Leclerc was as happy as a mental patient.

Spring rain is as precious as oil. This saying is very appropriate for Leclerc now.

The staff officer looked at his boss and was worried about the general's mental state.

"It's raining!

The muddy ground will turn into a muddy pond, and our army will be unable to move, and neither will the Ming army.

The war situation will be at a stalemate. It would be great if there is a spring flood on the Don River.

Order the pilots to speed up and get to the command post in Aibok as soon as possible."

Leclerc's face flushed with excitement and he danced like a child who had eaten honey.

The staff officer could only help him fasten his seat belt, and then go to the cockpit to tell the pilot the general's crazy decision.

Just as the staff officer left, Leclerc saw raindrops hitting the pod glass.

Traces of rain slid down the glass portholes of the pod.

Leclerc became even more excited. He just hoped that the rain would fall as hard as possible, and it would be best if it rained on him forever.

The mud-like banks of the Don River will seriously delay the Ming army's offensive rhythm.

Although the French army will be even more unbearable, the French army is still staying in the position.

They are not going anywhere!

The airship was moving through the rain. Although it was shaking like a small boat in the wind and rain, it was still moving quickly through the wind and rain.

I don’t know how long I walked through it, but an orange bright spot flashed on the ground.

Soon, another bright spot exploded on the ground.

The people on the airship all have rich experience in war, and this is shelling.

The airship has arrived over the war zone!

The pilot was very experienced in driving and did not get lost in the dark thunderstorm night.

After telegraphing to the command post in Aibok, the air contact signal lit up on the ground.

Although this is dangerous, there is nothing you can do about it.

The airship landed quickly, and no one knew whether Ming fighter planes would appear nearby.

Although, Ming army fighter planes generally do not fly out in bad weather or at night.

But this is a war zone, so who can say for sure.

The airship landed directly at Albock's command post, which saved Leclerc a lot of unnecessary trouble.

It also left the horses in the pod useless.

The rain outside the pod was very heavy, so Leclerc walked out wearing a raincoat.

The moment the cabin door opened, strong winds swept up the raindrops, suffocating Leclerc.

In the strong wind, Leclerc saw Lieutenant General Albock waiting in the heavy rain.

He hurriedly walked down the gangway!

"General Aibok, why are you here in person? Hurry up and get into the carriage, don't freeze."

Albock is over sixty years old this year, twenty years older than the up-and-coming general Leclerc.

In the wind and rain, Leclerc could see the white hair peeking out from the side of his raincoat.

"I also want to thank you Leclerc. Let's go and go inside the carriage and say it's too cold here."

Albock came over, kissed Leclerc on the cheek, and then patted Leclerc on the arm in a show of intimacy.

It was indeed cold outside, so the two people quickly got into the carriage.

"Thank you for speaking in front of His Majesty the Emperor, otherwise I might have been the executioner waiting for you."

As soon as he sat firmly, the carriage started to move.

"How did you know?" Leclerc was surprised by Aibock's well-informed information.

"Haha! Leclerc, I am over sixty years old and have been in the army for more than forty years.

It’s not for nothing!

Since I am your deputy now, just tell me, no matter what decision you make, I will fully support it."

Leclerc nodded, and it seemed that his vision had come true.

If you save Albock by yourself, you will definitely win the old guy's absolute support. This is very important for Leclerc, who is unfamiliar with the place!

"The troops on the east bank of the Don River need to assemble as soon as possible to launch an attack on the Don River Bridge.

This is their only way to survive. The troops on the west bank of the Don River will also launch an attack on the Don River Bridge.

The key to the battlefield now is the Don Bridge."

"I ordered the west bank troops to attack the Don River Bridge in the afternoon, but there was no way to show that the army's firepower was too strong.

And those damn Ming troops even have armor protection for their damn artillery.

Before you landed, this place was under shelling.

You can tell by the sound that it is a 155mm heavy artillery piece.

Their heavy artillery is the same as a tank and can move in with the tank to provide precise strikes."

"Damn it!" Leclerc cursed after hearing what Aibok said.

The damn Ming army has fucking evolved again.

In the past, their artillery had to be pulled by large tractors or cars.

Now it's better, it's now tracked just like a tank.

"Then let's concentrate our artillery and blow up the Don Bridge." Leclerc expressed his second idea.

He had already thought of this idea on the way here!

"What?" Aibok looked at Leclerc with wide eyes, as if he was looking at a devil.

"Leclerc, although His Majesty the Emperor trusts you very much, I have to remind you that we have eight divisions on the east bank of the Don River!

If the bridge is blown up, they will be in dire straits.
Chapter completed!
