In Fengjiang City, the soldiers of the Tang Army stationed on the ruins rubbed their eyes, and then pointed their guns at a Dahua officer who came out from the opposite side.
He did not pull the trigger because the other party was holding a white flag. The white flag was large and made of sheets, making it easy to identify.
Following the officer with the white flag, there were two unarmed followers who also seemed to be officers.
The three people on the other side were obviously very nervous and were very careful when walking. As he walked, he waved the white flag in his hand in a small area, as if he was afraid that someone would not see him.
"Hey! I said, squad leader! Look over there! Look over there! There is someone surrendering with a white flag." The soldiers of the Tang Army who discovered this Dahua officer excitedly called to their leader.
The squad leader poked his head out and saw these three extremely nervous Dahua officers: "It's true! Don't go out! Observe carefully to be careful of fraud! Wait until they get closer!"
"Could it be that the dog emperor of Dahua surrendered?" The soldier was still very excited. For him, if the war ended at this moment, it would definitely be good news.
Even the most adept at fighting will not like war. The Tang army has been fighting on the front line for several months, and countless people have sacrificed their lives for this war.
Even the Tang State, which had the upper hand, had lost more than 30,000 people since the war began. This was determined by the scale of the war.
"What are you thinking about? This is not a surrender, this is a negotiation. I guess the air force bombed with new bombs the day before yesterday frightened these Chinese idiots, so they came here today and wanted to negotiate with us." The squad leader took a picture.
He hit his soldier's head and said.
Sure enough, after approaching the Tang Army's position, these three people started their own performance. They waved the white flags in their hands, and then shouted loudly at the Tang Army's position: "We are here to deliver a message! Don't shoot! We are here.
Sending a message! Don’t shoot!”
"Raise your hands high! Come over here slowly!" On the side of Tang Jun, a company commander who rushed over shouted at the top of his lungs.
As a result, the three Dahua officers followed suit and immediately raised their hands, holding the sheet horizontally, and walked step by step into the Tang Army's control area.
After meeting the company commander of the Tang Army, the Dahua officer who led the team obviously calmed down: The most dangerous thing was the way he just walked. As long as the other party didn't shoot him directly, he didn't have to worry too much about himself.
life is safe.
Everyone said that the Tang army was a force of tigers and wolves, and that the Tang state was a country with broken rituals and music, but no one said that the Tang state did not abide by international conventions.
It is obvious that Tang State not only abides by a series of international conventions, but is also the advocate and proposer of many international consensuses.
The Tang State respected its envoys very much. This time, more than a dozen countries united to declare war on the Tang State. The Tang State did not embarrass the ambassadors of these countries, but only sent them out of the country with gifts.
In addition, when Tang State abandoned Bunas and Beiling, it was regarded as a benchmark for credibility. It is still talked about by many people. Everyone thinks that Tang Mo, who started his business career, is more reliable than the royal family of many countries in terms of credit.
many.
Therefore, after meeting the company commander of the Tang Army, the officer immediately introduced himself and then talked about the purpose of his trip: "I am General Li Ping of the Dahua Empire, and I hope to meet your commander."
"I am the commander." The company commander of the Datang army here said confidently, thinking that there should be no problem for him to talk to General Dahua on an equal footing.
"What I want to meet is a senior general who can make decisions!" The Dahua general named Li Ping's face turned red, and it took him a long time to say this.
He originally wanted to speak politely, but after thinking about it for a long time, he changed his mind: If he couldn't be proud when facing a company commander of the Tang Army, how could he face those fierce generals of the Tang Kingdom?
"Okay." Tang Guo's company commander also felt that he had nothing to do with matters like peace talks, so he nodded and sent a person to find the battalion commander.
After the battalion commander arrived, he felt that he was unable to initiate peace talks with the Great China Empire on behalf of the Tang State, so he sent another message to the regiment headquarters.
The regiment leader was a sensible person. He knew that he was not the person the other party wanted to see without going to the front line in person, so he immediately reported the matter to the division commander.
The division commander directly sent two cars to pick up the people, but they were not taken back to the division headquarters, but sent directly to the military headquarters.
The bearded commander knew the whole thing before the car arrived. He called Bolton for instructions, but Bolton had no interest in meeting such a Chinese general.
In the end, the matter was left to the bearded military commander: Bolton only gave one sentence, that is, if the other party came to seek peace, everything would have to wait for someone from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to come.
Outside a temporarily selected village, in a temporary tent set up in the middle of abandoned farmland, Bolton met the Dahua general Li Ping who came to negotiate.
The other party did not dislike the crude conditions, but was very moved by the Tang soldiers' behavior of using these farmlands to grow some vegetables.
The weather has started to get colder, and now we can only plant some green vegetables that mature quickly in order to barely grow something to eat before winter comes.
The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty did not waste the abandoned farmland of the Dahua Empire. This feeling made Li Ping, an officer of the Dahua Empire, uncomfortable, but he could not say anything.
After all, the place he was stepping on was now the area controlled by the Tang Dynasty. Everywhere he looked, there were all the Tang Dynasty's field tents.
"I am the commander of the 7th Infantry Army of the Tang State..." Big Beard briefly introduced himself, and then waited for Li Ping to continue.
Li Ping directly explained the purpose of his visit, and his words surprised the bearded man: "I am not here for peace talks. The purpose of this visit is to talk about the new bombs that your country just used in Fengjiang City.
.”
"Oh?" The bearded man raised his eyebrows, becoming interested in this topic. He previously thought that the other party came here for two purposes: one was to come for peace talks on behalf of the Great China Empire, and the other was to come to surrender on behalf of himself.
.
No matter which one it was, he just had to do his job well. But now he discovered that the other party was not here to surrender or negotiate. The other party was really here to negotiate, as Li Ping himself said.
"This kind of weapon is really... too... too deviant from human ethics." Li Ping stuttered for a moment before thinking of an adjective to describe the white phosphorus bomb.
Because he had seen the power of this kind of bomb with his own eyes, he had lingering fears about it. He stared at the bearded face and solemnly requested: "On behalf of General Feng Kezhi and the Great China Empire, I request your country not to
Continuing to use this...using this...too powerful weapon."
The commander of the 7th Army was shocked by these words. He stared at Li Ping with his eyes wide open, as if he wanted to see some clues on Li Ping's face.
After a long while, just when Li Ping was about to be stared at, the bearded commander sneered and asked: "You mean, we have more powerful weapons, but we have to
Because you canceled your continued use?”
"I also know that this request is a bit ridiculous..." Li Ping felt that his face was so hot that it seemed to be burning. He stammered and explained: "But, but, if you can go and see those things for yourself,
Dahua soldiers who were injured by your new weapons, you know that your new weapons should not appear on the battlefield at all."
"In the era of swords, muskets should not have appeared on the battlefield. In the era of muskets, revolvers, machine guns and bolt-action rifles should not have appeared on the battlefield." The bearded commander looked at the other party and said calmly.
He was a witness to all this. When he fought side by side with Count Fischereau in North Ridge, he never thought that one day the war would turn into something he did not recognize.
At that time, there were only 3,000 elite soldiers in Beiling. At that time, a war with more than 1,000 losses was almost over. At that time, there were no tanks, no airplanes, and no warships like sea fortresses.
More than ten years later, he now commands a regular infantry army with assault guns and self-propelled artillery, tens of thousands of troops and thousands of trucks...
Now, what is opening the way for him is the new type of bomb of the Air Force, which can blow up the enemy to the point of howling like ghosts, and even send people to make such a stupid request...
Look, the world is so wonderful.
Hearing what the bearded man in front of him said, Li Ping, the general of Dahua, immediately answered: "I understand what you mean, but don't you think about it, such evil weapons will seriously affect the reputation of Tang State...
"
He knew that it was ridiculous to come here to make such a request, and he had never even thought that he would perform such a fool-like task before.
But General Feng Kezhi found him and gave him such a trivial task.
When he arrived, General Feng Kezhi begged him to complete his mission and to prevent the Tang army from continuing to use white phosphorus bombs at all costs.
After seeing the power of white phosphorus bombs, Cyric's advisory group also believed that this weapon was too sinister and evil and was a devil's weapon that should be banned from use by all countries.
The commander of the 7th Army continued to ask in confusion: "Why is it affected?"
"Because that's a weapon only possessed by devils! That's the fire from hell!" Li Ping had to bring out ghosts and gods to try to arouse the other party's awe.
But the other party obviously has no reverence for the devil, or it can be said that the other party has better logic. In the eyes of the Tang people, using new weapons to reduce one's own casualties is an undoubtedly correct choice: "Ha! Why isn't it?
God’s weapons? Why aren’t they God’s punishment for sinful people like you?”
"This..." After hearing this statement, Li Ping felt that he was at a loss for words: from his point of view, these weapons were indeed evil, but the commander of the Tang Army in front of him believed that they were the righteous party and they represented
is moral.
This is difficult to deal with: when it comes to launching wars, the Great China Empire was originally at a disadvantage. They took advantage of the floods in the Tang Dynasty and took the lead in launching a war of aggression.
Now the other party has great righteousness, so it is not easy to connect the Tang Dynasty and the devil.
The other party does not feel that he is wrong at all, so all fallacies and heresies cannot interfere with the other party's thinking: this is the benefit of reasoning, the righteous party will always be invulnerable to fire and water and has no taboos.
"You took advantage of the fire, took advantage of the flood, declared war on us...and now you are trying to reason with us and talk about justice?" The bearded commander himself was amused by these bastard claims.
"I..." Li Ping felt his mouth was dry and his words were stuck in his throat, unable to come out.
However, now that he has come bravely, he cannot give up easily: giving up means that Fengjiang City will be lost and the Dahua Empire will be finished!
So he continued to persist, endure it, and looked for more words to make his words more convincing.
"In that case, how about we make an exchange? The Dahua Empire promises...to stop any sabotage actions against the southern oil fields! How about that?" Finally, after thinking that he could not persuade the Tang people on a moral level, Li Ping came up with his third plan.
Here are two plans.
The Tang State's oil production base, or the Dahua Oil Production Base occupied by the Tang State, is still within the bombing range of the Dahua Empire's bombers. This is a bargaining chip brought by Feng Kezhi.
"What a joke, your bombing a few days ago has been foiled!" Of course the bearded commander had heard about the previous fierce air battle and immediately refuted Li Ping's statement.
This exchange is simply impossible, because the conditions for the exchange simply do not hold true: Tang's air force is stronger, the Dahua bomber group has come and gone, and there is no way to continue the attack.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "You can ask your senior officials about this matter...it's best to ask your Majesty the King!" Li Ping was extremely proud and felt that he had regained his place.
In fact, in the past two days, in response to Feng Kezhi's request, Zhao Chen organized several more bombings against the southern oil fields in the direction of Jiange.
Because it was easy to be intercepted by Tang Army fighter jets during the day, Zhao Chen switched to night bombing and carried out sneak attacks on the southern oil fields.
However, there is a slight... difference in scale between these sneak attack bombings and sneak attack bombings in the traditional sense.
After all, the Dahua Empire does not have night formation technology or corresponding radio navigation, so it is simply impossible to organize dozens or hundreds of aircraft for night bombing.
Therefore, Zhao Chen could only take off a few, or at most a dozen, planes at a time, and used a method that relied entirely on luck to conduct sneak attacks on the southern oil fields at night.
The whole process can be described as fantasy: all the bombers were lost during the first bombing, and none of them came back.
The same operation was repeated the next day. More than a dozen bombers failed to find their target, and half of them were shot down by Tang Army's anti-aircraft guns.
The third time it was finally successful! Yes! It was successful! But only one plane hit the Universiade and flew over the southern oil field, and dropped a bomb to complete the bombing.
Unfortunately, these bombs only destroyed a section of the pipeline, and in the end only delayed Tang's oil production for more than two hours.
However, Feng Kezhi believed that this kind of bombing would shock the Tang Army's top brass and make the other side fearful. It could be used as a bargaining chip in exchange for the Tang Army's promise not to use white phosphorus bombs.
Having said that, it was indeed not something that a military commander could decide. So the bearded military commander, who originally had the same status as Tiger in North Ridge, immediately sent a message to Burton.
Bolton was also stunned. He really never thought that the other party could be so shameless, because he came to seal the Tang Army's new weapon, white phosphorus bombs.
But the exchange terms proposed by the other party were indeed very tempting, so Bolton had to send the news to the Central Committee Chief of Staff Loew.
Loew immediately asked Tang Mo for his opinion with the news, but Tang Mo agreed generously: "I agree to his request!"
"However, we need to take the lead and have the whole world sign a treaty prohibiting the development and use of white phosphorus bombs!" When he said this, Tang Mo's face was filled with a smile of success.
"Your Majesty! We will soon be able to solve the problem of night air defense... If we agree at this time, will we suffer a loss?" Loew knows a lot of information. He knows that the Air Force has always had a mysterious night air defense weapon plan.
I also know that the plan seems to be coming together.
"Suffer a loss? No, don't suffer a loss! When will you see me suffer a loss?" Tang Mo smiled even more, waved his hand and said: "Go! Just do what I say! Then publish it in the newspaper and set the tone higher! That's it!
It is said that for the sake of the common people, for the sake of humanitarianism, and to reduce the killing, we voluntarily gave up the victory that was so close at hand!"
"On the moral high ground, only we can scold others!" After saying that, Tang Mo lowered his head and continued to draw a drawing of a new weapon.
