Two Realms Shuttle Gate: Don't Call Me a Demon!-Chapter 427 - 291: Swallow the Whole Country
The Jieke Group launched a lightning strike from the Ruo Kai Mountains and within just three days, they had completely occupied the entirety of Magway State.
In this process, almost all cities fell to the Jieke Group's troops without a fight.
The cities were essentially left with only some police and militia, who, unless they wanted to pit their rudimentary weapons against the Jieke Group's machine guns, heavy artillery, and Genetic Warriors, had no choice but to surrender.
These militia and police officers certainly had no intention of sacrificing their lives for the Chan Country Government.
For every city they conquered, the Jieke Group didn't need to divert much manpower to maintain control since the local population was more than willing to be governed by them.

In fact, many citizens of these cities couldn't wait and, before the Jieke Group even arrived, they stormed the local government institutions and police stations, raised the flag of the Jieke Group, and declared their allegiance to their rule.
This trend of surrendering without a fight continued to spread rapidly after the capture of Magway State.
Adjacent states such as Shijie State, Ilowa, Meng State, and Neile State one after another saw their flag on the city walls changed to that of the Jieke Group as their troops advanced.
The Chan Country Government certainly wanted to defend, but their soldiers were depleted, with only about twenty to thirty thousand veteran soldiers left, and the rest were freshly conscripted.
Moreover, the army was demoralized and their will disintegrated, hardly sufficient to defend the capital, Yang City, let alone to be deployed to other states to confront the Jieke Group.
The Jieke Group, with an insatiable appetite, incessantly gnawed away at the Chan Country Government's vital territories, and now controlled more than half of the entire Chan Country, encompassing a population of over thirty million.
If it weren't for the need to be wary of air strikes, the Jieke Group would choose to march through fields at night, enabling them to capture even more territory at a faster rate.
However, the superiority of the Chan Country Government in terms of air dominance was also being eroded by the Jieke Group, as the Chan Country Government Army and Japanese Soldiers found their military airfields dwindling as more territory fell to the Jieke Group.
They wanted to use the airfields in Siam as a base, but the Siam Government, fearing reprisals from the Jieke Group, rejected this proposal.
In the Jieke Group's voracious expansion, many territories weren't under the control of the Chan Country Government but belonged to various warlords.
But for the Jieke Group, whether facing the Chan Country Government Army or warlord soldiers, those who did not surrender were equally targeted for destruction.
Faced with the formidable advance of the Jieke Group, how could these warlords withstand the wolf-like ferocity of the Jieke Group's large conventional forces, the assortment of armored vehicles and aircraft, all far superior to the light infantry of the warlords?
Furthermore, with the presence of Super Soldiers and Genetic Warriors, any notion of guerilla warfare in the forests was simply wishful thinking. Many warlord soldiers fled in panic, surrendering in droves.
It could be said that at this time, the Jieke Group, with its unstoppable momentum, was set to become the new ruler of Chan Country.
By then, anyone with clear eyesight could see that the Chan Country Government was on the brink of collapse.
At this point, some became anxious, with the Beautiful Country leading the Eight Nation Group. As the Jieke Group approached the Chan Country Capital, they publicly issued a statement.
"The Jieke Group disregards United Nations Security Council resolutions, is unwilling to sequester gene technology and turn it over, and recklessly expands the scale of the war, causing desolation within Chan Country. If the Jieke Group does not cease its actions, as a member of the Eight Nation Group, we will not hesitate to intervene militarily."
This message didn't stir any reaction in the world, as it wasn't the first time the Beautiful Country had threatened the Jieke Group.
However, for the Chan Country Government, this statement from the Beautiful Country was like grasping at a lifeline. They began to relocate all available forces to the Chan Country Capital, Yang City, preparing to hold out there, waiting for military assistance from the Beautiful Country.
But even for the Beautiful Country, transporting their forces would take time.
....
Yang City.
This capital of Chan Country, with a population of over seven million, was recently experiencing unrest and agitation.
The relentless advance of the Jieke Group was like a landslide and tsunami, moving ever closer, and even the most economically prosperous city in the country felt the looming threat of war.
Up to two hundred thousand troops had assembled there, building barricades and trenches in the streets, transforming many buildings into fortifications for war.
The Chan Country Government planned to make a final stand here, waiting for the rescue from the Beautiful Country.
In addition to the Chan Country Government Army, the last three thousand Japanese Soldiers were also stationed here, who, although wanting to return home, were not permitted by their own country.
After all, their masters were about to enter the fray, so retreating now made no sense.
In the underground ring road within Yang City, Miao Lun, wearing Biological Armor, turned to look at the rear, where Genetic Warriors and Super Soldiers lined up in preparation.
"According to the previously designated targets, secure the broadcast and television building, police stations, telecommunications bureau, headquarters, power plant..."
Miao Lun made the final reminder, and after checking through the Eye Worm that there were no enemies outside, he decisively pressed the detonator in his hand.
Specially designed explosives for upward detonation blasted a huge passage to the surface, and Miao Lun, leading the charge, leapt up first.
And upon hearing the explosion, the Chan Country Soldiers rushing over could just catch a glimpse of Miao Lun before they were met with his 14.5mm caliber bullets tearing through their bodies.
