Chapter 1373 Helpless surrender
The capital, the official residence of the leader.
The king was staring at the Mianmian Winter Rain outside the window with a gloomy face.
Just yesterday, a cold current swept across the eastern region. The temperature in the capital also dropped sharply, and there were continuous rainy weather. Due to the dual impact of rainy weather and continuous losses on the battlefield in the north and Haicheng, the boss's mood has been extremely bad recently.
On the northern battlefield, the Japanese general Qiao Yinshuan led two and a half divisions to defeat dozens of elite divisions in the 2nd War Zone, Xiongjiao Pass and Canghuai Valley were successively lost. The Central Army and the Wang Guojun were defeated and retreated again and again. If it weren’t for a small victory at Gu Yongfeng to resolve the eastern dilemma of Ling Pizhou first, the Black Eagle Army would be attacked on both sides, not to mention that Chengguan City would be lost, even the entire Ling Pizhou would be about to fall!
However, in this way, the decline of the King of the Army in Ling Pizhou was still not completely solved. Ling Pizhou East was once again mobilized by the Black Hawk Army to siege a half division. In Ling Pizhou North, Qiao Yinshuan Division attacked with the support of the army aviation force that the Black Hawk Army had reinforced again, and the entire defense line was already shaking. The victory of Ling Pizhou East, which was celebrated by the whole country, only maintained the battle situation of the entire Second War Zone in a positive direction for less than 20 days before it became worse again.
If possible, the king really wanted to go to the Lingpizhou front in person to ask the generals under his command who led the elite army. Tens of thousands of kingdom troops died in battle, so many generals and soldiers who were not afraid of sacrifice were not afraid of death, and the Lingpizhou national defense fortifications that had allocated huge sums of money several years in advance. Why did they fight this war like this?
But as the king, he also knew that he could not ask, at least he could not ask at this time. What are the complex interest relations, and the relationship between warlords in various places, are simply a mess that cannot be cut off. The clearer the questions, the more difficult it is to get rid of the tiger.
The only thing he can do now is to watch the battlefield in Ling Pizhou decay, take the opportunity to weaken the influence of the old man in Ling Pizhou for more than 20 years, and organize the defense line and fight the Black Hawk Army in the southwest of Ling Pizhou.
It’s okay to have a battlefield in the northern part. Although the kingdom organizes unified operations, there are only tens of thousands of Central Army. The kingdom army occupies most of the Zhazhaqiu Tong Army and tens of thousands of Duchy armies, which are just a group of miscellaneous armies.
But in Haicheng, the current first man in the kingdom was completely disgraceful. However, he has been carefully planning here for a long time. Not only did he devote his best ordnance to build his hands for several years, but he also gathered the most elite troops in the states of the country. He also had a good location and convenient peace of mind, but the deterioration of the battle situation was still unavoidable.
By the end of October, the main force, which invested up to 700,000 yuan, had lost control of Haicheng District and retreated to the west of Haicheng. This economic city had actually fallen.
What made the boss even more anxious was that the Investigation Bureau of the Military Department heard a suspicious situation again. The previous telegram exchanges between the Haicheng Sect of the Black Hawk Army and the headquarters suddenly became frequent, which seemed to indicate that the Black Hawk Army would likely increase its troops on the Haicheng battlefield again! And there were also generals on the military department who wrote and said with confidence that the Black Hawk Army would definitely increase its troops in Haicheng, and the number would never be less than three to four divisions.
Just now, it is a bit unsustainable for the attacks of more than 100,000 Black Hawk Army and the giant cannons. If 100,000 more people are coming, the consequences will be simply unimaginable.
It can be said that the boss hasn't focused much on his short hair on his temples in the past two days and is almost turning gray.
If the Haicheng is lost, the royal capital will be in danger!
There was bad news every day, and the only thing that made him happy was that the lonely army that was defending in Mashou Castle earned him some face.
In the past two days, the people's sentiment in the country has been surging and praised. Although most of them praise the lonely army, it was also the defenders of Haicheng, which was a fig leaf covering the third war zone of Haicheng and the leader's face.
Liu Jing's desperate resistance in Mashou Castle has triggered an unprecedented wave of fighting the Black Hawk Empire. Not only did the wealthy businessmen in the two states enthusiastically donate money and goods, subscribe to government bonds, but even those who live overseas donate generously. The people of the Kingdom once again frugally donate money under the organization, and the kingdoms overseas are also donating money.
Especially yesterday, the scene of tens of thousands of people from the territory kingdom shouting slogans was spread throughout the country by radio stations. Inspired by this, students from major cities across the country have reappeared in the wave of stopping school and joining the army!
According to statistics, in late October alone, nearly 100,000 young students from all over the country joined the army. After the king learned the news, he picked up his pen and wrote the heroic poem "One inch of mountains and rivers, one inch of blood, one hundred thousand young people and one hundred thousand troops". It was definitely the most powerful support of the nation of the country for him, a leader who was strongly committed to the battle but never surrendered easily, and it was also the greatest comfort in the hearts of this storm figure in the political arena of the contemporary kingdom.
However, no matter how beautiful Liu Jing's troops fought in Mashou Castle, they could not change the decline of the entire Haicheng battlefield.
What made the king who sat in front of the window silently watching the autumn wind and autumn rain even more upset was that last night, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom had already felt the strong pressure from the foreign territorial authorities in Haicheng. Staff of the Consulate of various foreign countries in Haicheng had already made noises in informal occasions. If the Kingdom did not order Liu Jing's troops to stop resisting in Mashoubao and retreat into foreign territories, all the consequences caused will be borne by the Kingdom!
The so-called consequences naturally refer to the fact that after the Black Hawk Army was unable to break through Mashou Castle for two days after the Black Hawk Army was furious, it was openly threatened that the foreign territorial authorities would bomb Mashou Castle with heavy artillery. And these foreign countries, who usually have 20,000 to 50,000 or 80,000 on weekdays, seemed awesome, but as a result, the Black Hawk Empire threatened them so much that they were so cowardly.
What annoyed the boss even more is that what is the logic of this girl Xipi? It’s okay if you are cowardly. The Black Hawk Empire Black Hawk Empire bombed the territory that Te Niang had snatched from the kingdom on the land of the kingdom, but the losses caused by the kingdom are borne by the kingdom. It’s simply nonsense!
After hearing this news, if the king had not experienced the ups and downs of the officialdom for more than ten years, the young man would have been holding a machine gun and rammed the foreigners first, but the king now could only swallow his anger.
The so-called "the head determines the butt, and the butt in turn restricts the head" definitely makes sense. The king cannot fuck people with passion like Qingpi twenty years ago, just like Qingshui, who was disagreeing with each other. He is still counting on these guys who claim to be foreign powers and are actually foreign cowards to speak justice for the kingdom at the UN General Assembly meeting. At this critical moment, how dare he create trouble?
Besides, the political significance of Liu Jing’s troops in the Battle of Mashoubao has been achieved, and it seems that there is no need to stick to it.
As for what happens to this army after retreating into foreign territory, the king obviously would not worry too much. No matter how elite the army is, it is just a regiment or a battalion. As the leader of millions of troops, he would not be worried about such a small army. Even if it is the Liu Lang Independent Regiment, which has made great contributions in the ancient city, has made great contributions again in Pizhou East, the king actually did not care much about it.
The kingdom now lacks everything, but there is no shortage of people. No matter how elite you are, can you be a division or an army? With the current population of the kingdom, as long as you have enough money, you can get a division, army or even a group of army out in the process.
This is cruel, but it is a fact. The elite army or generals who can fight from the perspective of ordinary people are just a number for these big names. A general's success can be ignored, except for themselves, all the bones can be ignored.
Therefore, when Zhao Danyu came to report carefully how to respond to the foreign consulates, the depressed boss in his heart did not think for long, and tactfully issued an instruction to order the defenders of Mashoubao to withdraw into foreign territory.
However, the boss was still very scheming and asked the negotiators to negotiate with foreign territories and even the Black Hawk Empire, and not to attack during the withdrawal of the Kingdom defenders to foreign territories. The Kingdom defenders can retain their weapons and return to the Kingdom army sequence at the right time.
Of course, this is not to say that the boss is particularly sorry for the 800 elites who gave him face, but that this negotiation report can save some face for the kingdom that has lost face, and can also explain to the people who are excited outside.
After the publicity department has been promoted, it is obviously forced, and it is very likely that it will become a military that has earned honors for the country and the nation, and does not want them to die in a position without any support. They have achieved the strategic goal of the Kingdom army bravely fighting against the Black Hawk Empire, and there is no need to choose unnecessary sacrifices.
This is politics, black turns into white, white turns into black changes from the heart.
It can be said that the king was meticulous and considered all the voices abroad, except for the guards who were willing to die to guard Mashou Castle without a substitute to accept his military order.
So, he miscalculated after all.
After all, small people are not chess pieces on the chessboard. They can be allowed to be controlled by big bosses to dodge and move at will. They also have their own will.
Just when Zhao Shanyu took the order and was about to directly issue an order to the Mashoubao defenders through the 3rd War Zone. The Black Hawk Army hid at least 500 meters away and symbolically shot at the Mashoubao defenders. It unexpectedly passed through the lookout hole and hit the wall. Then, the terrifying jumper happened to hit the only field radio station of Liu Jingmen who was placed in the command center room.
The radio station is broken.
Everyone was fine, but the radio station was actually broken by the Black Hawks' jump.
In addition to authenticity, the connection between the Mashou Fort defenders and the outside world was cut off.
