Zongman: Harem's Music

The Minister of Defense left satisfied.

On the balcony on the second floor of the castle, Willy Tybur was holding a cup of coffee that was no longer steaming, and his gaze lingered for a long time on a woman in a dress who was quietly watering the flower garden in her home.

Complexity...helplessness...determination...all flashed in his eyes.

"For the sake of our family... you have no choice but to have your hands stained with blood... Riya..."

Chapter 160: Ending (Part 1)

Three days later!

Enyanu Fort, the first theater of the Middle East battlefield.

In the theater command room, a group of generals from allied countries, wearing uniforms of different colors, sat at the round table.

"Urgent news! Marley has deployed a large number of troops from the Second, Fourth, Fifth, Seventh, and Ninth War Zones, intending to flood into our First War Zone. The Allied forces in each war zone have already launched a powerful blocking battle, and each war zone has become a single battle!"

"Also, the Marleyan First, Second, and Third Fleets have already left port and are heading towards Nubia Harbor, where the Alliance Navy is stationed in the rear... Ling Ran looks like he's ready to fight to the death in a short period of time!"

The commander-in-chief of the Allied First War Zone, dressed in a dark green uniform, tapped a baton repeatedly on the huge map hanging on the wall. Finally, he turned to look at the generals: "But strangely, the Marleyan army in our First War Zone, which is usually very active, is unusually quiet and completely silent... It's really confusing!"

"In my opinion, it's actually very simple!"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi, who sat at the head of the left seat, chuckled. "As everyone knows, the Allies have deployed rail-mounted light and heavy armored vehicles and infantry howitzer groups at key locations throughout the fortresses. It's precisely because of these new weapons that Marley has suffered repeated defeats in sieges and is hesitant to launch an assault on the fortresses... They're trying to force us into a positional battle! After all, while infantry howitzer units can move, light and heavy armored vehicles can't leave the tracks... We're effectively missing an arm!"

The Allied generals looked at this young man who came from the legendary Dusk Paradise - Paradia Island, possessed the [Power of Giants], had contacted the Allied high-level officials a month ago, and had reached a strategic cooperation relationship with the Allied forces as a representative of the Eldian Parliament. He had led the decapitation operation in the Third War Zone half a month ago, and had entered the First War Zone as a strategic war planner two days ago. They nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with his analysis.

"Then we will just hold on and not leave?" said a major general in a grass-green uniform.

"It's not that simple!" said a major general in a dark green uniform. "The allied forces in the neighboring theater are fighting an emergency blocking battle to prevent the enemy from entering our First Theater... Not to mention the light and heavy armored vehicles, the howitzer units will have a hard time keeping up with the other troops. If we hold on stubbornly, allowing the Marleyan troops in the First Theater to flood into other theaters will likely bring down the entire Middle East battlefield!"

"We have to fight!" said a major general in a light green uniform. "The question is how to fight most safely."

"Why did the enemy suddenly launch a large-scale military operation?" Nishimiya Tsuyoshi said, continuing to mutter to himself, "They have something they didn't have before. It is precisely because of this thing that they have the courage to fight to the death!"

Everyone looked at him, not knowing the deeper meaning of his words.

Only the commander-in-chief of the First War Zone, a tough old man with blond hair and green eyes, seemed to be thinking: "Are you saying... that the Daiba family is finally losing its patience?"

"Dyba? The legendary heroic clan? The neutral nobles west of Marley?" a young officer asked puzzledly, "Is there something wrong with them?"

"Although Tybur is indeed a heroic clan respected by all the nations of the continent, his noble title ultimately belongs to Marley. Most importantly, they control the Warhammer Titan, one of the Nine Titans!" The Commander-in-Chief said, "Perhaps the Titan decapitation operation in the Third War Zone (BCDF) has provoked them! So they are preparing to formally intervene in the Middle East War. And for this reason, Marley wants to launch a decisive battle!"

"Speaking of giants, we have Mr. Nishimiya and Miss Leonard. We still have the advantage of two to one!" said the young officer.

Everyone nodded in agreement!

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi: "I think I understand the enemy's plan. I have an idea..."

……

At noon, the Allied forces in the First War Zone began to take action!

On the east wall of Enyanu Castle, a fierce wind blew, making her clothes feel cold. Looking at the Allied troops surging out like a black mass, Mikasa gently pulled her hair aside and said, "The feeling of not being able to see the huge wall... Even after more than a month, I still feel unaccustomed!"

"If you stay in a narrow place for too long, you won't be able to get used to the vastness... Are you an earthworm?" Ani said sarcastically.

Mikasa glanced at her and said, "I'm really sorry. I made you, a butterfly that flutters among open flowers, stay in the narrow mud where earthworms live for eight years! It's very frustrating, isn't it? Once Tsukushi finishes his business, don't come back with us!"

Annie: () You wish!

There is nothing wrong with losing in daily life. Maybe golden retrievers all have the loser gene!

"Hey, time to go!"

In the distance, Xigong Si waved at the two of them.

The two girls looked at each other and then looked away.

"Humph!"

"cut!"

As they walked quickly towards Xigong Siyi, the two girls, despite appearing to be at odds, had a pleasant smile on their faces, and it was obvious that they had become accustomed to each other's presence.

……

at the same time!

In a dense forest fifty kilometers away from Enyanu Castle, a small group of Marleyan soldiers were using binoculars to scout the movements on the distant plain.

……

Regarding Annie's father's name, life and death; the political system in Marley; the internal situation of the Tybur family; and the names of the Warhammer Titan wielders. Some of this information is not explained in the original novel, some is omitted, and some names I created myself. Some of this information is explained in the original novel, but some adjustments have been made. For example, Annie's father is not dead, but he dies in this book. Do not delve into this!

Chapter 161 Ending (Part 2)

In the dense forest, Enya Daiba, dressed in a green military uniform, handed a pot of water to Willy Daiba, who was leaning against a tree trunk and panting, and said, "Brother, you really didn't have to come with us!"

As a pampered aristocrat and a language diplomat who lingers in high-level positions in various countries, Willy Tybur is obviously not good at long-distance raids.

"No, no need!" Willy Tybur waved his hand. "Although you are the heir to the Warhammer Titan, I am, after all, the official head of this generation. This is the last remaining act of my worthless brother... I want to witness the outcome with my own eyes. Will the choice made by the 145th King Fritz and our Tybur ancestors be correct and necessary, or simply a meaningless struggle under the curse left by Ymir?"

"It's right and necessary!" Enya Tyba said firmly. "I will prove it! I have the blood of Fritz, Tyba, and Ackermann flowing in my veins."

"Here they come!" the scout out front called out, "It's a small group of cavalry on reconnaissance. If nothing goes wrong, the main force should be about five kilometers behind us. Our target is even further back."

Willy Tybur looked at his sister and smiled proudly, "I'm absolutely sure of that!"

……

In a simple command post built on the bed of a truck, behind the 07th Army of the First Theater of the Chinese Eastern Allied Forces during the march.

The commander of the 07th Army pointed to a spot on the map and said to Xi Gong Si, "We'll pass through the outskirts of a primeval forest ahead. We can easily hide a 5,000-man army from the detection of our small cavalry unit... If, as you suspect, the Warhammer Titan will attack the slow-moving howitzer unit in the rear, this is the ideal ambush point!"

"How far is it?" Nishimiya Si asked after taking a look at the map.

"About three kilometers!"

"In that case, let's leave the team here and wait for the howitzer unit to come up from the rear!" Nishimiya Tsutomu nodded and turned to look at Mikasa and Ani beside him.

The three of them looked at each other and prepared to get off the car.

"Nishimiya-kun!"

It was at this moment that the commander of the 07th Army suddenly called out to Nishimiya Siyi.

"Is there anything else?" Xigong Siyi looked at him puzzledly.

Then the soldier, who was about thirty-five years old, said very seriously, "I wish you good luck in military affairs!"

The Eldian Empire's rule over the continent lasted until the 145th King Fritz. Even if each king could only live for 13 years, this was 1885!

The continent was ruled by the Eldian Empire for nearly two thousand years. You have to know... China's oldest Zhou Dynasty only lasted 800 years, and the next few hundred years were the period of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period when many warlords fought for power... The reign of terror that lasted for nearly two thousand years only ended more than a hundred years ago.

More than a hundred years, the transition period between the third and fourth generations...a perfect time.

Although the legend of the demon clan Eldians is still spread throughout the entire continent, and children have grown up listening to the legend... but those who have actually witnessed and experienced the Eldians' reign of terror are already dead. What they experienced was the colonial war of Marley, the world's number one superpower!

Marley has actually replaced the Eldian Empire invisibly. Its strength and ambition aroused public anger, which is why the Alliance of Middle Eastern Countries emerged.

An ally with the blood of the legendary demon clan flowing through his veins.

An invader known as the country of heroes.

This 35-year-old commander, like most people, obviously hates the latter more.

After figuring out the reason, Xi Gong Si smiled and said, "Thank you for your good wishes!"

……

When the last group of infantry ran past, only Nishimiya Tsukasa, Mikasa, and Annie were left on the vast plain, and the smell of diesel and dust lingered in the air.

"What are your plans after capturing the Warhammer Titan?" Ani suddenly asked.

Asking for flowers

"Of course I'm going back. What else can I plan?" Xigong Si asked with a sidelong glance, "Do you have any good suggestions?"

At this point, Nishimiya Tsutomu smiled mischievously: "For example, we can create a cute daughter together!"

A slender, green hand quietly landed on Xigong Siyi's waist and pinched it hard.

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi turned his head to look at the owner of the tender hand and smiled: "Mikasa, do you want it too?"

Mikasa lifted the red scarf around her neck and said without question, "I must go first!"

Surprisingly, this time, Annie actually gave up the perfect opportunity to be sarcastic to Mikasa, and instead continued looking at Nishimiya Tsugumi and said, "I still have less than five years left. Although I want to spend this time quietly with you... but if you have the idea of ​​dominating the continent, I..."

0 .... ...

Yes, Annie had inherited the [Female Titan] for eight years... According to the curse that every holder of the Titan's power only has a lifespan of thirteen years, she only had less than five years left. This was precisely the reason for her unease... Nineteen years old was a time when others were full of vigor and vitality, looking forward to the best of life; but for her, more than half of her life had already passed!

"..."

Mikasa, knowing this, felt a blockage in her heart and pretended to be indifferent and looked away.

"Five years... is really short... I can't bear to let it go!"

Nishimiya Siyi interrupted Ani and placed his right hand on her shoulder, no longer acting as nonchalantly as before: "Believe me... thirteen years is not the end for you. Not only thirteen years, but also one hundred and thirty years!"

"But……"

Annie's hesitation, accompanied by the five fingers of her right hand that kept increasing the force on her shoulder, and the dismemberment in Nishimiya Tsukasa's particularly serious eyes... finally turned into emotion and a heavy nod.

"Ok!"

......

Chapter 162: Ending (Part 2)

"coming!"

On the outskirts of the dense forest, under the secret watch of the Daiba brothers and sisters and others, the howitzer integration force of the First Theater of the Middle East Coalition Forces has already appeared!

There were trucks pulling the guns in the front and more horses in the back, lined up in rows and columns. The black gun barrels gleamed coldly in the afterglow of the setting sun. It was estimated that there were more than 4,000 of them in total.

"Cannons of this size...this quantity...I've heard of them countless times in battle reports, but this is the first time I've seen them in person!" Looking at the guns, each of which had a size and caliber that was truly astonishing for that era, Willy Tybur muttered, "If they were deployed effectively on the front lines, attacking the enemy lines, the devastation they inflict on our soldiers would be absolutely devastating."

"Four Two Three"

"Fortunately, they no longer have the possibility to deploy!" Enya Deba said lightly beside Willy Deba.

Willy Daiba nodded.

They had two purposes for this trip.

Destroy these howitzers and recapture the giants guarding this artillery unit.

Willy Tybur believed that it was impossible for someone who could seize the Founding Titan belonging to King Fritz within the walls controlled by King Fritz's lineage to not even know the basic common sense of war, such as playing to one's strengths and avoiding one's weaknesses, blunting the enemy's edge, and cutting off the enemy's food supply when the enemy is numerous and we are few.

Therefore, the opponent will definitely send some giants to secretly protect this important artillery unit; if the opponent has enough confidence in his own strength, he is likely to go out in person and use the power of giants to decide the outcome of this war!

Beside the siblings, an experienced scout suddenly said, "They've stopped... Something's wrong!"

"Get down!" shouted another soldier who also noticed something.

Three minutes later...

Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang

Thousands of cannons roared!

The bombardment, like raindrops, blanketed the vast mountain range where the Daiba brothers and sisters were hiding with a saturation attack!

boom! boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!

Balls of orange flames rose in the forest, and the shock wave scattered the surrounding soil into dust. Broken and burning trees flew everywhere, and the forest within a radius of about a kilometer was in ruins!

"Oh, if you don't want to die, then turn into a giant!" Nishimiya Siyi raised the corner of his mouth: "Reload and prepare, don't be stingy with the shells, give me another salvo!"

"Load!"

"Load!"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi's orders were quickly transmitted to each artillery platoon in the form of shouts.

Looking at the smoke-filled, fire-stained forests in the distance, and the devastated wilderness, the true commander of this unit, a steady man, glanced at Xigong Siyi and said, "Such a dense saturation attack. If there are no enemies inside, these shells will be wasted!"

Nishimiya Tsutomu glanced at him and thought: Although I have confirmed that the [Warhammer Titan] is over there, I never thought of killing her in this way!

These two rounds of salvos are just the final battle, the drumbeats before the war!

Of course, Xigong Siyi would not tell him this fact, otherwise the old general would be heartbroken...

"Don't worry, I can sense the Warhammer Titan over there!" Nishimiya Tsuyoshi explained calmly.
