1286 Military meeting in the middle of the night

"Our army began to collapse without even knowing what happened." At the Qin State meeting, a general from the front line stated the entire battle to Emperor Qin Yingduo.

He took a passenger plane back to Wangdu before the Battle of Dongqing broke out. From there, he could calmly continue taking a plane back to the hinterland of Qin.

It's a pity that most of the Qin soldiers can't run faster than him, so now Dongqing and Xiahao are surrounded by two huge encirclements, swallowing up about 1.3 million Qin soldiers.

Once the Tang army digests the Qin army in these two encirclements, the next step will be to launch an attack on the old imperial capital.

"Communications were interrupted, and the commanders could not even find their troops... Corps commanders and group army commanders were attacked by inexplicable missiles. Some headquarters were paralyzed a few hours after the war started, and they have not recovered until now.

"The officer knew exactly what happened on the front line, so he introduced it in a more organized manner.

What happened in the entire war zone can no longer be changed by individual bravery. If a single person or a unit wants to be brave, it cannot change the entire war situation.

A modern army that has lost its logistical supplies is not as fragile as its ancient counterparts. At least the ancient armies carried food, drink, weapons and equipment on their own backs.

The current army can only carry a few days of rations and can only carry enough ammunition for a few battles. Once it exceeds this range, they cannot even complete the battle.

No matter how brave you are, you cannot stop the enemy's tanks and armored vehicles with dozens of rounds of bullets and a rifle. No matter how brave and skillful an army is, it will ultimately be no match for a late-arriving grain truck.

"A large amount of military supplies were wasted halfway, and a large number of tanks and armored vehicles were destroyed on the road... We did not fight the Tang army at all, we just kept retreating, collapsing, and retreating..." He

I even cried when I said it, which was an extremely aggrieved state.

You want to say that they are not brave, no, they were mentally prepared to pay a lot of sacrifices and costs before the war.

They felt that even if they lost hundreds of thousands or millions of people, as long as they could get a chance to defeat the Tang Empire, the cost would be worth it.

But the reality is so cruel. These brave people found that the bravery they relied on was worthless. They didn't even have a chance to die with the enemy, so they were defeated in an embarrassing way.

So he was aggrieved and very frustrated because he tried his best, but found that everything he tried could not change anything on a macro scale. For a commander, this is a kind of despair.

"There's no news from the navy yet?" Emperor Qin Yingduo was more worried about the problems with the navy at this time. He heard that the naval battle had already started, but looking at the time, something was obviously not right.

It is obvious that the main force of the Tang Dynasty's navy went south after the war started, otherwise there would be no time. In other words, the Tang Empire's navy did not passively avoid war at all, but actively sought war!

The opponent knew the movements of the Combined Fleet from the beginning, and was heading straight for the Combined Fleet. To put it bluntly, the opponent was here to destroy the Combined Fleet, and they were very confident in destroying the Combined Fleet.

At present, this is indeed the case. Although I don’t know much about naval warfare, the problems that occurred in the army seem to have also occurred in the navy.

Poor communication makes it even more difficult for the combined fleet, which is the fleet of the two countries, to coordinate and command. Even if John Cleeves has great power, he may not be able to exert half of the combat power of the combined fleet.

For a large navy, this is simply fatal. The entire fleet has 10 aircraft carriers, 10 battleships, 29 cruisers, and 25 destroyers.

"No! Communication interference in the south is very serious. The radar station we built along the coast of Shu is only half completed, and the detection signal has also been interfered with." The officer in charge of Shu's coastal defense replied helplessly.

Previously, their coastal defense force submitted an application requesting the allocation of 300 jet fighters to the Navy, as well as about 400 Type 17 twin-engine bombers, and at least 150 Stukas.

As a result, until the declaration of war against Tang, only a small part of these requests were granted. Only more than 80 Type 183 jet fighters, 120 Type 17 bombers, and a total of 16 Stukas were deployed on the entire Shu coastline.

!

Because the previous assumption was that the combined fleets of Qin and Dorne could move north to attract the main force of the Tang Empire's naval fleet, the defense along the coast of Shu did not need to be very solid.

On the other hand, it is also because the Qin State really does not have that much national power to defend the coastal areas. They want to form more troops and bring as many aircraft and heavy artillery as possible to the main battlefield with the Tang Empire.

In this way, these things are less likely to be wasted in the coastal areas of Shu that are less important, or less likely to be attacked.

But who would have thought that the Tang Empire's naval fleet would take the initiative to ask for a war, and seemed to have already made the United Fleet panic.

All of this is not part of the plans of Dorne and Qin, because Qin even hopes to rely on the southern route to bring all Dorne's troops and technology to Qin to participate in the war.

Well now, if the route is cut off by the Tang fleet, support from Dorne will no longer be possible. Qin will have to face Tang alone, which is definitely not good news for Qin.

"It was a strategic miscalculation." Ying Duo rubbed the bridge of his nose. He had almost lost sleep in the past few days. Every day's battles made him more stressed. Now he even had to take sleeping pills to fall asleep.

"Your Majesty! The most critical thing for us now is not the navy and the southern route, but the defense of the old capital! If the old capital is lost, Zhang Xuan will have to..." Prime Minister Ying Ke spoke his mind.

Once the traditional sphere of influence of the Great China Empire is completely lost, Qin's control over Shu will not be so stable.

If the Tang army goes south, Zhang Xuan's headquarters in the southern cluster, which is attacking Chu from Shu, will be surrounded.

What's even more troublesome is that if Shu is lost on land, the connection with Dorne will be really cut off - even if there is no problem with the navy, if it is cut off on land, the navy will also be cut off.

He became homeless.

"In the direction of the old capital, our troops are too small... Overall, it is impossible for us to defend the old capital." The army general on the side said in a desperate tone.

This night is destined to be sleepless.
