Chapter 31: Advance continue
[50 kilometers? Our army can do it in one hour. Ten hundred thousand of orcs? We kill more than ten million in a week.]
Jack first uses his ability to check on Yazov's mind and get about this information. He then checks on the other three and gets a similar answer.
What happened? Are all the news real? There is no point that the Soviets will tell fake news to their general.
Realizing all the news Alexander told him was true, he no longer looked down on the Soviet army. He began to use his abilities occasionally to get more information about the Red Army. Sadly, nothing more he can know from them.
The battle continues for another few hours; various magic equipment has been used. It is a new experience for the Soviet military observers, they have not seen many of these before. At the same time, they also think, can this magic and equipment destroy the Soviet tanks and aircraft, or will be destroyed by them?
Jack has got the answer by using his ability.
-----
The night has come, and the Karak today has again advanced for more than 10 kilometers. Both armies returned to their camp, or newly occupied village, to rest and prepare for tomorrow's battle.
Somewhere far from the battlefield, a small wooden house in a forest.
Alexander from the Karak was sitting in front of a table, beside, is Jack and his guard. Opposite him, surprisingly, is the Marshal of the Orcs, Aba Aba, of course with his guards beside him. The two sides now don't look like they are having war with each other, but more like good friends who have known each other for many years.
"How is your day Alexander, I heard your guess has reached today. What do you think of them?" Aba Aba sitting arrogantly on a wooden chair, asks Alexander a question.
"Does not seem like any special on them, they are weaker than citizens of our empire. Can't understand how would the undead and orcs be defeated by them." Alexander said calmly.
"Well, you can understand how have we been defeated if you see what is special about them. You see, you guys call yourself the best human wizards in the world, but yet you all still can only defeat us and only advance with a distance like today. But all those Soviets without magic, with their equipment, can fight non-stop for days, and travel so fast."
Alexander listens silently, what the orcs face, may be things that they will need to face in the future.
Aba Aba then threw a few metal fragments to the table and continued to say.
"Take a look at these fragments, I get them from their various equipment, some were destroyed, but more are those that used to destroy us. Compare it to the metal the Karak use, you see how big is the difference between the quality of the and the Soviets. What makes things terrible is that can produce metal like this just like water, these few pieces are just those small ones is can be brought back, there are more big pieces that can cause bigger damage and I can not bring them here. Think about how many weapons can the Karak produce, your metal annual output may not even be as much as their one day of output."
Alexander took the metal fragments on the table in his hands and kept observing them, with shock in his eyes. The quality of these metal fragments, if used to make their weapons, would even be able to look down on weapons made from meteorites.
But he still remembered to ask about the power of weapons made by this metal.
"You see the Tier-5 wizard from your side that destroyed my hundred-man formations today? Not every weapon can create such a big hole as he did, but many weapons can do the same damage as he did. The strongest weapon they use is almost equally having the same power as our Tier-7 wizard, the difference is they do not need time to store energy, the moment you realize them is the moment that they do damage to you. My whole army and command system were destroyed by things like that, I still remember the day, these weapons came from the sky, I do not know how many of them came together, I only many, you destroy one of them, then they will be the second the third the fourth."
Alexander remains silent, today it is his first time knowing so much information about the Soviet Army, the weapon Aba Aba said, he has heard it before, seems like is a weapon called a nuclear weapon, can't remember much about it. Ask about himself, he is sure not a single country in this world can survive a sudden attack by ten million orcs and all those elite dragon knights of the undead. But the Soviets did and launched the counterattack. For a country like this, even if Karak and the orcs joined to attack them, it would probably only just a matter of time for the USSR to destroy them.
It's so scary without mastering magic, how terrible would it be if he mastered it?
"Jack, did they realize anything from the battlefield today?"
The Karak has another secret agreement with the orcs, in which they play a play together just to trick the Soviets, at least wait until the Karak have some basic understanding of the Red Army technology.
They will not deal some heavy damage that will cause permanent loss to the opposite army.
"Report to Marshal, I have checked through their mind with my ability, I am sure they have no suspects in our war, but ..."
Alexander was relieved to hear that they had no suspicion, but then he heard Jack's 'but'.
"Say everything out, Jack."
"Report to Marshal, these Soviets have a big looked down on our armies, I checked their mind, and they all think that our army can not even deal some little damage to the Red Army."
Alexander breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that it was just a trivial matter that they looked down on his army. How could an army with such powerful combat power give a high rating to the Karak army? As long as they did not plan to invade him for the time being, everything will be ok.
The meeting today has come to an end, just as everyone is ready to leave the house, one of Aba Aba's men suddenly said in panic, "Marshal, something terrible has happened."
Everyone in the room looked at him, waiting for him to say the bad news.
"News from the undead, they have detected the vanguard of the Soviets Army have reached the border of Plainspire."
What! So fast.
This is the first thing everyone in the room thinks of, they know Aba Aba's plans and understand no matter what the army is it can ignore their losses in such a big battle.
"Did the undead say how many of them have reached?"
This is important information to know if it is only a small number of forces have reached, then it could mean it is just a reconnaissance from the Red Army, if not, it means even billions of undead appear behind and in front of the Red Army did almost zero damage to them.
No matter which is it, it does not give a good sign, because it shows that the Red Army still can continue their assault, and the undead already do not have enough force to stop them.
If Plainspire had also fallen, then the Red Army could mastered or even used some magic, and their main forces could also turn their direction south, destroying the orcs.
Even some core provinces of the Nazg may cause heavy damage to the Red Army, but Aba Aba does not think that human will send their army to places that have zero value and are also full of different kinds of weird undead things.
"The undead did not mention it, but I will have some confirmation with them."
Alexander and Aba Aba both see their worries in their eyes, if the Soviets could have destroyed the orcs and undead, then who would be their next target?
As professional military man, they will never have any illusions about kindness from such a superpower. No matter how good your relationship with him is now, there is a possibility of a break, and by that time, how could your army stop them?
"You guys will continue something like today, I will need to go back to Octa and prepare for the future battle. Hope both of our countries can survive from the Soviets."
Alexander nodded his head, and ordered Jack,
"Inform Karakum, and ask them whether they are allowing Alistair to not provide correct information to the Soviets, it is very dangerous if the Soviets get Plainspire that fast."

"Comrade Orgarkov, we have a vanguard that has reached the border of Plainspire, and they found the possible reason why our plane and missile were not able to reach it. The vanguard reported that there is a tower that is continuously transmitting energy to the sky, forming a huge energy shield. This energy shield is difficult to see with eyes as the shield causes whether there are always rain or storming. They sent people to explore the shield and found that there was strong electromagnetic interference inside, which made many devices unable to work normally."
Ghasnov is reporting to Orgarkov about the latest news from the vanguard. Of course, the Red Army is still recovering from the loss due to the battle earlier, the vanguard is just one of the special ones that they supply them with priority just to let them reconnaissance to investigate why planes and missiles always lost control after entering the area.
"Tower? I believe it should be Plainspire, but how far is it with our vanguard, how will our vanguard be able to see it, and their energy shield, can they cover that far?"
"800 kilometers marshal."
Orgarkov nodded his head, he was somehow amazed by the undead magic, strong electromagnetic interference may create some challenge for the Red Army.
"Order them to continue investigating the shield, I need to know what weapon can be used and what can not be used. Our guess is also coming, we do not have much time to prepare, and we will need to continue our assault after one week no matter how. And also, how about our progress of the railway?"
Ghasnov noted down Orgarkov's order and answered him, "The engineer unit stated they would need one more week to make it half from the frontline."
"A little bit too slow, ask them to make this in 5 days, 8 days later I want to get the report of the first railway in the frontline."
"Affirmative."
-----
Sevastopol,
The Soviet secretary and the head of an officer are now meeting with 4 guys that wearing different uniforms from them. In the sky, four dragons are circling, of course, with 4 mig-21 in the further distance 'protecting' them.
"Our dear guest from Karak, please step on our train, we will first bring you to our capital first, and then to the frontline."
Four of them step on the train to Moscow, and their dragon just flies along with the train. On the journey, they keep looking at the scene outside, just like the first time Serina and his team came here.
But four of them are different from Serina, so something more has taken their attention. In the middle of the journey, they realize the land here has soil that is so black, the crops here are so tall, and by just looking at it, they know it will have high production. After asking the guards following them, they know this place is called Donbas, but the guards refuse to provide further information.
Although the officers say that the train will be sending them to Moscow, the train keeps stopping at the city for different kinds of reasons. It took three days to get there, but it should have taken one day.
Finally, they reached Moscow and were sent to their embassy. According to the officers, they will need another few days to send them to the frontline.
