Chapter 1098

"Since this battle is unavoidable, it's better to let our generation bleed so that our descendants can live the good lives of the Free Nation and the European Alliance!"

"Exactly! Let's fight!"

At the critical moment of the great war, after being baptized by so many events, the hearts of the Dragon Nation people had long since been tightly twisted into a single rope.

Faced with the threat of war, there wasn't a single coward!

Many men, at home, might be bullied by their wives, might be called 'daughter slaves' or 'henpecked'.

But at this moment, every one of their spines was held straight.

Who doesn't fear war?

Who doesn't fear death?

But for the sake of the Dragon Nation, countless Dragon Nation people did not choose to retreat, but stood together against the enemy to overcome the national crisis!

At this juncture.

The Dragon Nation's Armed Forces Department, which usually had no one asking after it, now had its recruitment phones being blown up.

It wasn't just young men in their twenties.

Eighty-year-old grandpas insisted they had practiced martial arts and wanted to join the army.

Middle-aged uncles in their forties and fifties also wanted to join the army.

Most ridiculously, teenage girls were also frantically calling, wanting to go to the front lines to take care of the soldiers…

……

Until finally, after the Armed Forces Department issued an appeal saying that troop numbers were sufficient and thanking the masses for their desire to enlist, this farce finally subsided slightly.

On the other side, in Dragon Nation society, the war brought not only fear but also ignited the bloodiness hidden deep within the hearts of the Dragon Nation people!

Even at this juncture, Dragon Nation society did not experience any chaos.

Residents went out to purchase large amounts of supplies, but there was no panic buying.

Everyone in their hearts had already prepared themselves psychologically to fight to the end, to fight until the last person!

……

At the same time.

On the other side, a video conference at the highest level of the Dragon Nation was initiated by the Great Leader's office, directly connecting to the Dragon Nation's military, to high-level generals at the rank of General and above!

And Song Qi, although only a Major General, was clearly in the ranks of the call.

However, the crowd of Generals felt no surprise at Song Qi's appearance; on the contrary, they felt exceptionally reassured by his arrival!

Song Qi's recovery was not a secret among the highest leadership of the Dragon Nation.

Song Qi's appearance was equivalent to giving everyone a shot of adrenaline.

Even Major General Song is here?

Wouldn't this war be a piece of cake?

Perhaps because it was a satellite video call, the generals present also expressed themselves very openly.

Soon, the conference room was covered in a chorus of cursing.

"Damn it! These damn Free Nation beasts, they don't talk about martial ethics, they actually use sneak attacks. Our soldiers north of the front line, although alert, still suffered heavy casualties!"

"The ones sent to the front line are General Chen Guoan and Wang Lao, who are known for their steadiness; they will surely be able to teach these heaven-killing Free Nation bastards a harsh lesson!"

"Damn it! They fight as soon as they say so! A little oil is like taking the Free Nation's old life…"

"…"

Listening to the angry curses coming to his ears, Song Qi didn't make a sound, his eyes looking at the screen, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart.

Tap… tap… tap!

Just then, a crisp, rhythmic tapping sound came from the conference room, as if someone were tapping the table with their fingers.

In an instant.

The conference room became so quiet that a pin drop could be heard.

The Great Leader saw everyone fall silent and stopped the tapping.

At this moment, his face was grave, and his brows were filled with dissatisfaction.

"Because the situation is urgent, I initiated this video conference directly! But this video conference is not for you to curse!"

"Whoever I hear cursing in the chat room again, wasting everyone's time, if I hear you blabbering one more word, get out of the room!"

The Great Leader's majestic voice came through.

The few who had been letting themselves go in the conference room were instantly scared into silence, like quails caught in the cold rain of a winter night.

They didn't dare to make a sound again.

After controlling the situation, the Great Leader didn't waste time.

On the battlefield, time is life; the Great Leader understood this principle.

The next second, he turned his head to look at the political commissar behind him responsible for mobilizing military supplies.

"Luo Gong! How is the equipment situation for the soldiers on the front line?"

"The war has broken out; they are all our fellow Dragon Nation citizens, and the life of any single soldier cannot be easily abandoned!"

The man the Great Leader called Luo Gong hurriedly replied.

"Reporting to the Great Leader, over the past month, our Dragon Nation's major military factories have been working at full capacity to manufacture military equipment!"

"The number of special combat armors, under full-speed production, has reached twenty thousand pieces…"

"As for other military equipment, there are three aircraft carriers in total, and two have been sent to the battlefield…"

"…"

Listening to the voice coming to his ears, the Great Leader's face gradually sank.

"Not enough!"

"Still far from enough!"

"Twenty thousand pieces of armor—our Dragon Nation has sent at least one hundred thousand soldiers over! The number will continue to increase later! We can't even manage one armor per person!"

"Soldiers without armor on the battlefield—what are they if not cannon fodder?"

"Immediately increase production! Open up production lines! At all costs, we must get our soldiers' equipment up to standard!"

"But… but…"

Luo Gong's expression struggled, and he stopped speaking several times.

"But what?" the Great Leader questioned.

"Great Leader! Our military factories have already reached their limit…"

"Over this past month, we have tried our best to expand the military factories, but the war came too fast! Most of the military factories have only been built to a rough stage…"

"Energy… on the energy side, there is also some insufficient supply!"

"If this continues, civilian electricity can last at most one month; any longer, and I'm afraid we'll have to face large-scale power outages…" ===== CHAPTER 1100 =====
