Chapter 1590 Attack on St. Petersburg

Originally, Moscow was about to be lost, but because of the arrival of the army of the energy group, everything here seemed to be the same as before. The army of the new Soviet Union took the initiative to retreat along the four roads west of Moscow. They retreated fifty kilometers before stopping. The US-European alliance almost scolded them to death for their actions, but Chekov, the president of the new Soviet Union, doesn’t care what you scold. If we go to fight Harov’s army or No problem, with my eloquence and some of the elite troops below, it is easy to take down, but if we go head-to-head with the troops of the energy group, we will not have that ability. As long as they don't come to provoke us, we are still honest The hind legs are better, and there are more than a dozen military bases on the territory behind them. Although the energy group troops inside have begun to withdraw, and their own side has also begun to receive them, as long as there is still one soldier, there will be other people's energy bases. We can't mess around with the group's territory. m[Read the novel and arrive~]

The U.S.-EU alliance always says that people from the new Soviet Union are useless, but you are amazing, but why are you stationed near St. Petersburg? Why don’t you know about going to the front line in Moscow? Are you afraid of others? What about reducing friction? This is some reason that does not exist at all. If the army is not good enough to pass, the air force is not far from St. Petersburg and Moscow. The air force is not allowed to fly in the direction of Moscow. They also have a purpose, that is, their troops have not yet assembled. If they fight with the energy group at this time, they will suffer a lot. They just want the millions of people in the new Soviet Union to be cannon fodder and buy them more than a week. It will work with them, but Chekov is definitely not a fool. The one hundred thousand in his hand The army is the capital for bargaining with the two sides. If it is gone, what use is there for me.

Speaking of which, his idea was also wrong. The army in his hands can only bargain with the US-European alliance, and the energy group does not need any agents at all, because Li Cong's purpose is to rule the land quickly. The Slavs can be said to be the most aggressive country. Although they are very weak now, they still cannot forget what happened back then. Russia back then was some land around Moscow. Other places around are very powerful countries, but in the end? He has built a huge empire in one or two hundred years, and it is also the largest empire in the world. This ability should not be underestimated, in case you don't watch him. After a while, he got up again. Didn't he want to regret it? That's why Li Cong decided to bring this place into the scope of the empire. He originally wanted Harlov to be the puppet emperor, but now it doesn't seem necessary. Everything is talking about the barrel of a gun Well, those who follow will live, and those who go against will perish.

The day after Li Senge three finished drinking. They received documents from the headquarters of the energy group. The headquarters ordered them to launch an attack on three cities west of Moscow tonight, namely Odintsovo, Khimki, and Jedovsk. These three cities are all on the high-speed passage from Moscow to the west. Roads and trains are basically in the area of ​​these three cities, so it is necessary to capture these three cities, and there are more than a dozen small cities around them. In these cities, there is no US-European coalition army, and some are the new Soviet army with less than 100,000 people. Li Sen immediately arranged for 90,000 African mercenaries to divide into three groups to take these three cities, because these three cities were already fifty kilometers away.

In other words, the new Soviet Union may make concessions, but the concessions are definitely limited. This is not something they can cede. If the energy group gets it here, then their territory will be under the attack of the energy group at any time. , especially Odintsovo, which is the gateway to the west, is also occupied by the new Soviet army of nearly 60,000 people. After learning that the army of the energy group started to move, they also strengthened the defense of these three cities, but for They didn't know the exact direction of the energy group, so they lost some time. When thousands of unmanned bombers of the energy group began to fly over the three cities, they understood the intention of the energy group. The group is to open the gateway to the west.

At this time, the new Soviet Union cannot be the same as before. They are panicking, and the US-European alliance is also panicking. Their troops are not in place yet. If they start fighting at this time, they will definitely lose in the early stage. They have a lot of ordnance All the supplies have been transported to St. Petersburg. I hope they can quickly arm part of the army to resist the attack of the energy group. At this time, the new Soviet Union is no longer a problem of offending the energy group. They have all seen the energy group. Action, the energy group is going to swallow the whole of Russia, so hundreds of thousands of troops are immediately transported to the front line through the railway line. The railway network in Great Russia is still very thick, even after suffering the baptism of many wars , these railways can still be put into use after simple repairs. No, a large number of troops arrived at the front line within ten hours, but the place where they got off the train was a little different from what their superiors told them. The boss told them They want to get off the train in these three cities, but now they can only get off the train in the western suburbs of the city, because the army of the energy group has already attacked the city and has already controlled the train station. If you get off the train at the train station, you may become a prisoner of the enemy when you get off the train. It’s not that their comrades don’t work hard. It’s because the energy group’s offensive is too sharp. Their tanks are all killed with one shot. There is no way. All the energy groups use electric shells, can they use non-steel tanks?

For this problem, the US-European Alliance also has its own solution. They have put a layer of insulating material on the surface of the tank. Although the cost is tens of thousands more, it is very useful for the energy group's electric shells. Yes, but now it seems that their method is useless. This layer of material is on the outermost layer. If no one touches it, it may last for a few years, but what about after being hit by an ordinary shell? There must be a lot of exposed places. This electricity thing is more pervasive than water. Even if it is exposed a little bit, it will conduct electricity, so they still suffered heavy casualties. However, the military observers of the US-European Union have also been inspired. You can put insulating materials inside, but your shells can't directly attack the inside. [Just read the novel~] Not to mention, this method really made the energy group's electric shells useless later, of course, this is all a matter of the future. Now they have to continue to suffer from the brutality of the energy group.

By the time the hundreds of thousands of troops got off the train and assembled, three hours had passed, and a group of their own men in disheveled uniforms ran out from the city, and the three cities had already fallen. The army of the energy group did not make things difficult for the ordinary people in the cities. They could choose to stay or flee with the new Soviet army. There were more than a million people in the three cities, but only tens of thousands of ordinary people escaped in the end. The rest of the people chose to stay in the city. They didn't think there would be any future with such a group of troops that were defeated as soon as they came into contact. Hunzi, they know the future of these people well, it is better to follow the energy group.

Because this is also the territory of the empire in the future, the African mercenaries automatically found some uninhabited places as their camps after entering the city, and they have not violated any of the common people here. And the senior officers of the army rose to some policemen in the city. Let them come out to maintain law and order, try to make the whole city the same as before, and don't let the common people show any fear. This is what they did very well. The African mercenaries also understand that their mission may have been completed. Capturing these three cities is where they excelled in the war, and the rest is out of their hands. It is estimated that people from the US-European coalition forces will come soon, and those people should let the regular army go up. We people are not opponents of others. The education Li Cong gave them is to fight against their own suitable opponents. They are not allowed to be stronger or weaker than themselves. Their opponents are the army of the new Soviet Union.

The army of the new Soviet Union is not very effective, but Russia is an old empire. These armies are definitely more effective than those of the Pope in Turchi. If they are really desperate, they can definitely compare The drought mercenaries of the energy group are powerful, but there is still a big gap compared with the African mercenaries. The African mercenaries have always been the most powerful mercenaries in the energy group. Sometimes they are stronger than the Burmese mercenaries. The legion's regular army is much stronger, but their combat ability is very strong, but their strategy is not very good, the officer's ability to adapt to changes is too bad, and because of the relationship between some of their tribes, it is difficult for external officers to Integrate into it, so they can only be led by their local people, which limits too much combat power, and this is not something that can be solved in a day or two.

After taking these three cities, just as the high-ranking officials of the African mercenary army imagined, more than 700,000 special combat divisions of Li Yin were welcomed in Khimki, and they will go all the way to St. Petersburg in this direction After fighting in the past, the other two cities also ushered in the elite troops of the energy group. This time has not yet reached the most intense time, but they have begun to invest in the elite troops of the energy group. This is enough to show that the energy group does not want to let this battle Continuing to fight like this, the combat plan formulated by the military this time is to use three super elite troops as the main offensive force, and all supplies are the best. After reaching the city of St. Petersburg, as for some areas on both sides of the communist route, they don’t need to take care of them. The military department will send Fuso mercenaries and African mercenaries to deal with some small cities around them. It is absolutely guaranteed that the supply lines will continue. If it is broken, there is still air transportation, which will not delay the front line.

Li Yin started his plan on the second day after he arrived in Khimki. Thousands of Apocalypse tanks from two armored regiments were in front, and behind them were armored vehicles leading some infantry. Expressway, they will advance at full speed along this expressway. Although there are hundreds of thousands of troops blocking them along the way, Li Yin doesn't pay attention to these people at all. He will advance to St. Petersburg within two days This is Li Yin's plan, and the top management of the group is also very optimistic about this plan, and the other two groups will also make certain concessions for this plan. For example, they will try their best to attract the new Soviet troops from all over the country, so that Li Yin can move faster. To be honest, the hundreds of thousands of new Soviet troops are nothing in front of Li Yin. They have already advanced within an hour of departure. Thirty kilometers away. Basically, the Apocalypse tanks can clear the obstacles in front of them, and many new Soviet troops have no backbone. When they see the murderous tanks in the distance, they immediately soften. Not to mention firing back fire, some people even forgot to run away, and just stood there and looked at them as prisoners.

Two and a half hours later, Li Yin's army had broken through two lines of defense in a row, and they were hundreds of kilometers away from Khimki at this moment. Especially the tank troops on the main road of the expressway. They lined up in four columns with a distance of 100 meters and a speed of 60 kilometers per hour. They put all the armored vehicle troops on both sides of the expressway behind, and then With the deepening of the war. Many troops of the new Soviet Union started to attack blindly when they saw the thick smoke in the distance. As long as they shot themselves, they immediately retreated. Anyway, they resisted, but they couldn’t beat them. Although our weapons are not bad, they can't keep up with the weapons of the special operators of the energy group. Many people just find reasons for themselves. [ ] They want a reason to live. Naturally, they will exaggerate the capabilities of the energy group's special fighters. They are about to say that the special fighters are heavenly soldiers and generals in their mouths.

In a small town called , thousands of new Soviet officers and soldiers were chased away by hundreds of soldiers from the energy group. They didn't even know how many enemies there were when they looked back. They just saw the big flag of NY At that time, it was thought that the army of the energy group rushed over. All they have to do is to retreat immediately, and then the army behind them sees them retreating so embarrassingly. Just thinking about how terrifying the energy group is, and then retreated. This may be the most powerful attack of the energy group. There are a total of twelve tanks and two armored vehicles. They liberated two small towns and one military camp within an hour, and drove away tens of thousands of new Soviet troops. I really don’t know How did they do it? In the end, none of them were injured. Such a record was impossible even for the Guards. In the end, Li Cong could only say that these new Soviet troops were too useless. If the army is defeated like a mountain, this is really too fast.

At ten o'clock in the evening on the first day, Li Yin ordered the whole army to start resting, and it was indeed time to rest. In fourteen hours, they advanced 300 kilometers, captured more than 100,000 troops, and seized a large number of troops. Ordnance supplies, especially some American canned food and food, the supply trucks of the energy group were not able to catch up so fast. After arriving, the chiefs of the military supply force immediately apologized to the soldiers and said that their speed could not keep up, but the soldiers all haha Laughed, and then took them to the warehouse, saw a large amount of US wartime food, and took the people of these military supplies to eat together, grandma, let’s hurry up, you have American feelings As for the Quartermaster Corps, no wonder, the most interesting thing is that this place is already occupied, but many US military transport planes don’t know it, they still drop some supplies as quickly as before, and other places don’t know, but Li Yin’s special The fighters received thousands of tons of various supplies that night. It was not until the morning that they ushered in the American bombers. It seemed that only at this time did they realize that they had worked hard to deliver all the supplies for the night. It's all given to the energy group, how can I not be angry in my heart, so I will change the bomber to kill you.

These days it seems that God is helping the energy group. In history, as long as there is an army attacking Russia, it will be hindered by the weather at the last moment. Napoleon was like this, and Hitler was like this during World War II, but now it seems This theorem is gone. Li Cong reckoned that his seniors should have attacked from the west. Lao Tzu started to attack from the east. Maybe the whole spell would not be possible. The temperature is neither too high nor too low. How can they stand up to themselves if they don’t advance 300 kilometers in this weather? Li Yin was already on the tank at 8 o’clock in the morning. Their goal today is Two hundred kilometers away, because St. Petersburg is already on the outskirts of two hundred kilometers away. St. Petersburg is sitting in the capital of the new Soviet Union. I also know something, and I won't be as stupid as yesterday.

Indeed, this morning, the reconnaissance plane in front sent back a report after advancing less than 50 kilometers. A large number of troops in front have already begun to build defensive positions. Moreover, the air force in the sky seems to be fighting very fiercely. This is the real entry into the battlefield. After the exchange of fire in the front, the news from the front will be fed back soon. The army in front of them is not only the army of the new Soviet Union, but also the army of the United States and Europe. The army of the United States and Europe can be easily distinguished from the army of the new Soviet Union. For example, the accuracy of shooting is the best. a way of distinguishing. When the soldiers were shooting, none of the ten bullets of the new Soviet army was likely to be useful, but the U.S. and European allied forces were different. Their combat skills were also those of the regular troops. They brought energy to the army of the energy group. The casualties will definitely be several times higher than those of the new Soviet army. Now that the energy group has thousands of wounded, it is naturally their masterpiece. Li Yin is afraid that they will not come. Since you are here, let you see how powerful our army is. The army after the change is the same as before It's completely different, Li Yin gave an order, no matter whether it was the guns on the guns or the artillery on the tanks on the entire position. Immediately all were replaced with electric shells. After five minutes of rapid shooting, hundreds of thousands of electric cannonballs were launched with hundreds of millions of degrees of electricity. Immediately, electric arcs were everywhere in the front position, and the breeze blew, as if there was a kind of scorched fire in front of them. Asked, it is really fragrant. But when they know that these smells are all from human flesh, the people behind will not have the heart to smell this smell. Everyone started throwing up, damn it. It's fucking disgusting to think about.

After the bombardment of electric shells, the casualties in the front have at least exceeded 30%, and it may be even higher than this ratio. More soldiers in the new Soviet Union are already scared at this time. If the troops of the US-European alliance felt it, they probably would have retreated a long time ago. They stayed after seeing the powerful army of the US-European coalition. If my hands were not lying on the ground and there was nothing conductive on my body, I guess I would have turned into a roast pig by now. Looking at the comrades around me, everything was completely black. God, it's best not to encounter the situation just now, it's just too scary, those blue arcs of electricity are like lightning, people who stick to it can't even scream and die like that , This is definitely not a nightmare, but it should all be real. At this moment, everyone doesn't care about the officer holding up behind them. If you want to die, don't stop us from dying with you. If you want to live, what Slavism is, everything is bullshit, what you need at this time is to run faster so that you can continue to live.

The psychology of the U.S.-European coalition forces is also under such a shadow. Although some of their weapons and equipment have been installed with insulation equipment, but the people who were in a hurry just now are those who set it up and many people in the machines have died. The level of proficiency is related. These insulating devices can be said to be a double-edged sword. Under certain conditions they can block electricity, but under another condition they can also isolate signals from outside, so most of the time These things are closed, and they also need to know some outside situations, but when they know that they want to open it, it is already too late, and they can only become oven pigs, not affected by every day. The soldiers of the US-European Union are not afraid of death. At this moment, a few of them started to throw away their military uniforms, and then found the uniforms of the dead new Soviet soldiers next to them, put them on, and followed them towards the back Run, if there are a few hundreds or thousands of people, you can use the supervisory team to catch them all. As long as you don’t stop, you will kill them all. But it’s not that simple now, tens of thousands, tens of thousands Thousands of people have begun to throw down their weapons and large-scale hind legs. This kind of thing makes them very depressed. They don't know what to do. They can't kill all the hundreds of thousands of troops. If tens of thousands of people are killed, it is estimated that there is no need for the energy group to call, and the people of the new Soviet Union will have to fight them desperately. Their officers can only ask their superiors to send more troops to help them. Hold the line of defense in front of them, their superiors replied to hold on, reinforcements will arrive soon, they did not see their own reinforcements, what they saw was their air force dropped hundreds of planes and started to go back, the enemy's Planes began to drop bombs on their heads, enemy tanks were already in sight, enemy armored infantry began to clear the entire battlefield little by little, and enemy flags had begun to be erected in front of their eyes.

To be honest, in Li Yin's opinion, these soldiers of the new Soviet Union are really great, and he has done himself a great favor. If it weren't for these people, it would be impossible for me to advance so far so fast. Although it is not comparable to yesterday, I have advanced more than 100 kilometers today. Li Yin understands very well that if the war continues, his speed will become slower and slower. It is considered very good to have this speed today. It is precisely because of the retreat of the new Soviet army that the people of the US and European coalition forces have lost their position. Disrupted. They have no other choice, so they can only retreat with the army of the new Soviet Union, otherwise they will not be able to escape the fate of being annihilated. This situation is similar to that of World War II decades ago, when the Germans were so fast of the march. The only difference from that time is that the current direction of attack has been reversed. It is impossible for the Soviets to think that they will encounter enemies in the east. After all, in their eyes, their enemies are all in the west. It is impossible for the East to be their enemy at all. The East has always been bullied by them, whether it is Huaxia or Fusang. It is impossible for them to be their opponents. What they didn't expect was that now they were being bullied by the army they looked down upon, and they would soon lose their foothold.

Veliky Novgorod (Великий Новгород, Russian Novgorod Latin spelling: d, English: d) is one of the oldest cities in Russia. It was founded in 859 and is located in the northwest of Russia. Where the Volkhov River empties into Lake Ilmen. Veliky Novgorod has a population of 216,856, with the highest population recorded in 1989. The population at that time was 229,126. Veliky Novgorod is the capital of Novgorod Oblast. Russian Federal Highway No. 10 passes through Novgorod. Novgorod is connected to Moscow and St. Petersburg by highway 10. There are long-distance bus links to St. Petersburg and other directions. Novgorod has direct passenger rail links to Moscow, St. Petersburg and other large cities in northwestern Russia such as Pskov and Murmansk. Since the mid-1990s, there have been no flights to Novgorod's two airports. The nearest international airport is the airport in St. Petersburg, about 180 kilometers north of Novgorod.

At present, Li Yin's present is this city. This can be said to be the west gateway of St. Petersburg. As long as this place is captured, there will only be more than 100 kilometers away from St. Petersburg. , the new Soviet Union has also concentrated their 600,000 most elite troops, and even left less than 50,000 troops in St. Petersburg. They all understand that it is useless to keep the army. St. Petersburg does not need to be guarded anymore. St. Petersburg lasted for 900 days in the Great Patriotic War. Li Yin is very clear about the position of this city in the hearts of Russians, so he must capture it here, just like Hitler back then. Same.

Leningrad is the cradle of the great October Revolution, the second largest city in the Soviet Union, an important seaport, railway and river transport hub, and an important base of the Soviet Baltic Fleet. When Hitler formulated the "Barbarossa" plan, he repeatedly emphasized the need to capture Leningrad, "the birthplace of Bolshevikism", and arrogantly clamored that the city must be "wiped off the face of the earth". At the beginning of the war, Hitler tried unsuccessfully to capture the city, and then carried out a 900-day siege. In late August 1941, Hitler mobilized 32 infantry divisions, 4 tank divisions, 4 motorized divisions and 1 cavalry brigade on the northern flank, equipped with 6000 cannons, 4500 mortars and more than 1000 troops. A plane launched a fierce offensive against Leningrad, threatening to occupy Leningrad on September 1. In the Barbarossa plan, the capture of the city on the Neva River was regarded as an "urgent task"-to wipe Leningrad from the face of the earth, kill its inhabitants, and destroy the cradle of the proletarian revolution.

Leningrad was besieged for as long as 900 days. The heroic people of Leningrad were indomitable and fought hard, defeating the German army's strategic goal of occupying Leningrad and keeping the powerful German North Army Group firmly in the northwest of the Soviet Union. On the battlefield, it effectively supported the Soviet army's victory in other battlefields. The U.S. military commented on the Battle of Leningrad in the "World War II" expansion film and said: "A general can win a battle, but only the people can win the war!" The British "Evening Standard" also Praise said: "The resistance of Leningrad is an example of the brilliant victory of mankind in enduring incredible tests. Perhaps no resistance similar to Leningrad can be found in the history of the world." The defense of Leningrad in Victory ended on August 10, 1944. It had a huge impact on the course of the war on the Soviet-German battlefield. The battle contained heavy German troops and the entire Finnish army. After the battle, a large number of Soviet troops were vacated and diverted to other strategic directions. Li Yin absolutely cannot allow them to repeat such a thing. There are already heavy troops assembled in front of the city in front of them. Li Yin analyzed for a long time, and after getting the authorization from the headquarters, he decided to use all his troops to prepare for the attack at eleven o'clock that night, and the night in Veliky Novgodero immediately became very bright. Everyone knows that this may be the biggest battle since the establishment of the new Soviet Union, and it may also be the last.

The Soviets also attached great importance to this battle. They took out the slogans from 100 years ago and began to broadcast everywhere, "The Soviets will continue to send supplies and military supplies regardless of the stormy bombardment. The front line, which itself is a tearjerker epic. Soldiers told me. In the trenches at the front, they still often get hot meals. The food is brought by the supply team at night, and some food is brought by hand. , Many of them are still in the hands of Soviet women. The Soviet soldiers who stick to the city have always maintained high morale, and they like to sing the following song most: The invaders roared towards Leningrad, and they failed when they encountered strong resistance. , get the hell out of Leningrad...

Although the current situation is not as bad as before. But many officers have told most of the soldiers. Tell them that their situation has reached the most dangerous time. If they can't wake up at this time, the enemy's iron hooves may step on St. Petersburg in the next step, in order to protect the last city of their great Slavs , They temporarily organized an army of 500,000 in the city, and they were the last reserve team. Plus the 400,000 US-European troops already around, plus the 500,000 troops on the front line. They have collected 1.5 million troops, and they will use this 1.5 million troops to fight for half a week. In this way, hundreds of thousands of Europa troops from the hinterland of Europe will arrive. They will help them defend St. Petersburg. There are tens of millions of ordinary people under the banner of the new Soviet Union. Their corps will still have a lot of manpower for a while, but can it be possible? Getting it all organized is another matter.

That night was mainly the preparation time for the artillery, and the firepower of both sides began to shoot at the opposite positions. The new Soviet Union is also a country with a large number of artillery. They also fired 100,000 French artillery pieces from night to five o'clock in the morning the next day. Shells, the US-European coalition launched a total of 1,952 missiles of various types, dropped about 12,600 tons of bombs, and fired 150,000 shells. Compared with the energy group, this number is too far behind, so their firepower preparation is basically Not quite enough, the energy group's aircraft fired a total of 1,625 various types of ground-attack missiles, the army's missile force fired 1,025 rounds of surface-to-surface missiles, and the army's artillery fired 292,500 shells, of which 90% All of them are large-caliber heavy artillery, firing 152,010 electric shells, 50,226 rocket launchers, unmanned bombers dropping 52,000 tons of bombs, and manned heavy bombers dropping 150,000 tons of bombs. Moreover, some of the energy group's ordnance equipment is well hidden, so their losses in the bombing are only less than 2%, while the losses of the US and European coalition forces reached 15%. The new Soviet Union The casualties reached 30%, and their millions of troops have not seen the enemy yet, and 300,000 have lost their combat effectiveness. Thirty percent of the casualties are due to electric shells. The results of the electric cannonballs are not as good as in the daytime, mainly because many people can see and dodge when the electric cannonballs explode at night, and it is very timely. It is an electric arc, and it is possible to run directly into it.

At 5 o'clock in the morning, thousands of armed helicopters of the Energy Group, carrying tens of thousands of commandos, began to quickly land. At the same time, the armed helicopters also began to carry out violent rocket and missile attacks on some strongholds. Wan's troops defeated 100,000 enemies and advanced 15 kilometers. Then, taking advantage of the enemy's unstable foothold, 3,000 Apocalypse tanks surrounded and suppressed more than 1,600 tanks of various types from the US and European coalition forces. They encountered an overwhelmingly superior number of tanks. The Apocalypse tank group is also considered to be their bad luck. At this moment, the armor strength of the front line has undergone a fundamental change. After this battle, the US and European coalition forces lost 40% of their armor strength, while the Energy Group's Apocalypse tanks only suffered less than a few casualties. Fifty vehicles achieved such a result, and laid the foundation for the victory of this battle. As for the thousands of tanks in the new Soviet Union, they did not participate in the battle directly, because they were simply upgraded by hundreds of helicopters from the energy group. The plane was tightly blocked, and there was no chance to pass by.

The division plan can be said to be very good. In ten hours, Li Yin has advanced to the center of the city. Although the other half is still in their hands, Li Yin clearly feels the victory. Within five hours, this The city must be his. Li Yin ordered the 150,000 infantry regiments in the back to start quickly driving armored vehicles to wipe out the US-European coalition forces in half the city. The armored group should not run too fast. Anyway, there is a problem with my own fist, and at the same time, tens of thousands of wounded are transported back to Moscow, and they cannot receive effective treatment in the front. (To be continued..)

the s
