Chapter 276: Chapter 159: [Operation Market Giveaway], Shocking the Blue Star Imperial Leader (6.6k Double Chapter)_4
This is also the reason why many officials within the British Commonwealth are dissatisfied with Montgomery. It’s because you, a rookie, delayed our share of the pie getting smaller.
You deserve death!!!
Yu Feng then went to check the posts on the Imperial Camp side and found some news.
The Empire is indeed reorganizing its forces, preparing to use this victory to launch another Blitzkrieg, splitting the Anglo-American Allied Army’s forces on the Western Front.
And to seize a series of important ports, using the Allied soldiers stranded on the Western Front to force the Anglo-American Commonwealth to negotiate, thereby concentrating forces to deal with the Eastern Front.
These are internal messages organized by players from the Imperial Camp.
Just....
Looking at the operation of this plan, the latter part.
Yu Feng found it oddly familiar and uncertainly said:
"Could this be a plan devised by the Imperial Leader?"
Because this last part is just too reminiscent of ’Dunkirk’.
Back at ’Dunkirk’, the Empire attempted to force the Commonwealth to negotiate by stranding over 300,000 British Commonwealth soldiers there.
But who would have thought the fishing boats would arrive, completing the evacuation of over 300,000 within a few days, and the plan was abandoned.
And now it’s happening again.
Once again attempting to seize ports, using the Allied soldiers stranded on the Western Front to force the Allies into negotiations.
Although the goal is to use negotiation to buy time and fully concentrate on the Eastern Front.
But whether this plan succeeds or not is beside the point.
Just looking at the faces of those Anglo-American Commonwealth high-level politicians on Blue Star.... Are those soldiers even considered people?
Tens of thousands of deaths.
The high-level Commonwealth was arguing because the plan failed, and they couldn’t gain subsequent benefits.
In this situation.... the Empire wants to use those soldiers to force the high-level Commonwealth to negotiate.
It’s genuinely a bit naive.
Those Anglo-American high-levels don’t even consider those soldiers as people. On the contrary, the Empire really treats those soldiers as humans, as bargaining chips....
But after this commotion.
The failure of the Market Garden Operation has made the situation in Europe a bit enigmatic again.
Nobody expected the Empire, already at its wit’s end, to be given a lifeline by the Anglo-American Allied Army.
Yu Feng watched the ’real-time map’ and chatted with the live stream, and then prepared to start again, but this time choosing the Imperial Camp. The British Commonwealth side truly angered him.
....
A few days later.
In Yu Feng’s live stream room.
Yu Feng was now within the 6th Armored Army Group of the Imperial Party Guard’s subsidiary corps.
His starting identity was as a deputy regiment commander.
And the actions and orders of the Imperial 6th Armored Army Group confirmed the forum news a few days ago because Yu Feng was heading to the frontline.
The goal is also to prepare for a surprise attack on the Allied forces.
Yu Feng sat in the command vehicle, looking at the map, and explained to the fellow viewers:
"The counterattack is real."
"The plan is pretty much the same as what was seen on the forum a few days ago."
"Hiss—"
"With so many players, it seems this game has no secrets."
"My frontline units just received the news, and those playing as Imperial officials leaked it days ago."
"The plan is indeed devised by the Supreme Leader."
"Hmm... how to put it, I’ll refrain from commenting."
"Although a bit naive, it does treat those Anglo-American Allied Army soldiers as humans, which is amusing."
"Suddenly, the joke seems a bit cold."
Yu Feng spoke:
"We’ve gathered around 200,000 troops and 500 tanks, which is all we could muster on the Western Front."
"I can’t imagine what failure this time would bring."
Seeing various comments floating in the chat, Yu Feng chose some to respond:
"Fight?"
"That’ll have to wait; you know how the Empire’s logistics are."
"They can’t supply us now."
"Speaking out doesn’t matter, as the Earth NPCs generally won’t listen to player intelligence; currently, the Empire’s offensive fuel isn’t even fully mustered."
"It’s good enough if half of the 500 tanks can start."
"So the Allies have some time to organize a defense line."
"No choice, the Empire’s situation is just like that."
"Supply can’t keep up."
Yu Feng chatted, and suddenly the comments exploded.
[Whoa?! Quickly check the player forum!]
[The Empire collapsed again!!!]
[No hope, no hope, streamer should quickly suicide and switch to the Allied Camp.]
[What a pity.]
Yu Feng looked at these comments, somewhat puzzled, and quickly opened the player forum, only to be met with posts marked ’explosive’.
[Rommel poisoned himself to death, the Imperial Leader has gone mad!]
Seeing this post, Yu Feng was dumbfounded:
"Whoa?!"
"What’s going on? Rommel is gone?"
"Wasn’t it said last time that he was hospitalized after an air raid from the British Commonwealth?"
"How did he suddenly poison himself?"
And what does this have to do with the Imperial Leader?
Yu Feng clicked into the post.
What appeared were several photos, evidently screenshots from the live stream room.
But you could vaguely see Rommel’s clear visage from the side, as well as those surrounding him, the ’Gestapo,’ with one person saying something while handing Rommel something.
Eventually, Rommel chose to take it, and then returned indoors, triggering the player’s assumption that he might have been saying goodbye to his family.
Rommel then appeared in the yard, wearing a military uniform, petting his dog before, under the watch of the Gestapo, swallowing something.
He then sat on a chair in the yard.
It was only a few seconds.
Rommel’s body slumped and completely collapsed.
The photo series from the yard ended here.
And the next and final photo showed a newspaper, with the headline being ’Empire’s Hero, General Rommel’s Sudden Death from Illness’.
Below were the condolences from the Imperial Leader.
Yet, looking at these photos.
Blue Star players only felt endless absurdity; the Empire’s politics seemed quite treacherous. How could such a famous general just be forced into suicide?
