Re:Zero - Starting a Different World Industry

An unrestricted fighting tournament erupted in Laka Town.

The entire town of Raqqa was instantly engulfed in war.

Both sides are vying for control of the town of Raqqa.

The Imperial Guard launched a surprise attack in the outer areas.

Meanwhile, the orc resistance forces engaged in a fierce battle with the orc civilians of Rakka Town.

At first, the orc rebels thought the civilians were nothing but dirt and worthless.

However, the battle intensified.

The orc rebels were stunned.

Because they realized they simply couldn't defeat these ordinary people.

The people of Laka Town are not only good marksmen, but they also have many AK47s.

The rate of possession of fully automatic weapons exceeded that of the orc army stationed in Rakka Town.

It is virtually impossible for the orcish resistance to defeat the people of Rakka.

The people of Laka town immediately picked up guns and started fighting.

After executing the orc rebel commander, the mayor immediately picked up the loudspeaker and addressed the entire town.

"Listen up, everyone! We can no longer tolerate the oppression of the rebels! We must learn to fight!"

Our lives should belong to ourselves, not to these so-called rebels!

We will live for ourselves! Take up your weapons and drive these rebels out! Raqqa is our Raqqa!

The town mayor addressed all residents.

He hoped that the residents would take up arms and fight.

Upon hearing the mayor's call, the residents picked up their guns, ready to fight to the bitter end.

They were just a group of ordinary residents.

But they were already prepared to fight to the end.

All they want is a stable environment.

As ordinary citizens of the Orc Empire, they have already endured enough.

These years, they have been people of the northern region of the Orc Empire.

They had to support every imperial expedition.

They supported the war every time.

However, they never became beneficiaries of the war.

Even though the Orc Empire emerged as the winner.

They didn't get a single penny of benefit.

Because they are ordinary people from the northern part of the Orc Empire.

They never got a share of the land that the Orc Empire plundered during its southward campaigns.

On the contrary, they also have to bear the military expenses.

This made it impossible for them to accept this reality.

This disparity—having given everything yet receiving nothing in return—made them deeply resent the so-called orcish glory.

They gave everything, only to receive empty fame in the end.

The outbreak in Raqqa was just a microcosm.

Whether it's the residents of Laka town or anyone else.

Every citizen of the Orc Empire has suffered oppression from the Orc Empire to some extent.

In the imperial era, no one could escape oppression.

If a person is not persecuted by feudalism, then he must be a beneficiary of the feudal class.

In the town of Laka.

A dozen or so rebel soldiers were engaged in a fierce gun battle with five or six civilians from the town of Raqqa.

Although the rebels were supposed to be a regular army, they were actually less trained than ordinary civilians.

The people of Laka Town were full of martial spirit and directly shattered the rebels' ambitions with their superb marksmanship.

Initially, the rebels planned to break through the town of Raqqa and escape to the north.

But they found that they couldn't even beat ordinary people.

At that moment, they were plunged into deep self-doubt.

Are they really no match for ordinary people?

A resident of Raqqa town, upon seeing rebel soldiers charging towards him from afar, raised his AK-47 above his head and unleashed a burst of fire.

A hail of bullets rained down on the enemy.

The other person instantly collapsed into a pool of blood.

The rebels immediately raised their guns and returned fire.

However, they discovered that this civilian was very cunning; he didn't stick his head out at all, but instead raised it above his head and fired a faith shot.

Moreover, the shelter chosen by this civilian was very particular; it was not an ordinary stone brick, but a concrete wall.

Bullets really can't penetrate this wall.

And after firing a burst of bullets, the civilians immediately began to move to a new position.

The two sides engaged in a fierce tug-of-war over the town of Raqqa.

Many rebel soldiers did not want to fight this battle.

After learning that the front line had been breached once again, they were utterly terrified.

Because they could not accept the resistance army's repeated defeats.

They can accept defeat, and they can accept that they cannot defeat the National Defense Force.

But what does it mean that you keep losing?

You have to win at least one game, right? What's the point of losing all night?

Some rebel soldiers were still determined to fight to the bitter end, but most of the orc soldiers chose to flee.

They withdrew directly from the town of Raqqa.

They chose to advance rapidly northward along the edge of Laka town.

They genuinely do not want to get involved in a so-called civil war with the common people.

After fighting for so many years, they've come to understand one thing.

That is, war can never stop.

They were drawn into the battle from the very beginning.

They may have started as victims, but now they have become perpetrators.

They have now placed themselves on the opposite side of the people...

Many people may think they are not wrong.

But only they themselves know.

They are the real culprits who brought the Orc Empire to the brink of collapse.

Even the strongest national defense forces are merely external factors.

Moreover, ever since the National Defense Forces liberated the Orc Empire.

The environment in the Orc Empire is actually getting better and better.

However, their appearance has instead caused ordinary people to go from being well-off to struggling to make ends meet.

The lives of ordinary people in the Orc Empire were actually quite good.

But then a war dragged everyone into a quagmire.

The ordinary people were caught up in it.

They were forced to go with the flow.

Now that they've finally seized the opportunity for revenge, they're naturally going to tear a piece of flesh from the resistance.

News of everything that happened in Raqqa had already reached the Imperial Guard.

William had long ago ordered the Imperial Guard to quickly capture the town of Rakka and to try every means to spread the word about the Great Yan.

After capturing several blocks, the Royal Guard proactively distributed food to the local orc civilians.

Actually, they originally wanted to quickly reach Laka Town.

But there was really no other way, because the town of Laka was now completely surrounded.

The people inside are in a no-holds-barred fighting tournament.

The Guards could not bypass Raqqa and head north immediately.

Laka is a transportation hub, and they must take it to ensure their escape route is not blocked.

After occupying three streets.

The Imperial Guard did not rush to launch an attack.

A tank is stopped at the intersection.

The gunner is keeping a close eye on the intersection ahead through his scope.

According to reports from the local people, there are orc armored soldiers in the city.

Although in front of the Imperial Guard, these people were nothing but clay chickens and dogs.

However, even a lion will go all out when hunting a rabbit.

They must strike with deadly precision!
