Chapter 411: The Preset Position of the Tatar Army
King Zhang Anguo cordially received Chen Yizhong, the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, at the Empire State Building.
This was not a secret visit, as it was reported in many newspapers during the period from Chen Yizhong's departure from the Great Song Dynasty to the exile of the Federal Empire.
The newspapers have speculated about the purpose of Prime Minister Song's visit, and there is no way to guess the specific content, but they can all judge that it must be related to the current war.
The Great Song government still did not openly declare war on the Great Yuan government like the Federal Empire, and they only sent a team to follow the Federal Imperial Army to carry out the reception work.
Both the "Liuqiu Times" and the "Minsheng Daily" believe that after the two countries have strengthened economic cooperation, they will begin to strengthen military cooperation!
But no official from either country has responded to their comments.
After Chen Yizhong, the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, arrived in the Badaohe area, he was eye-opening, and this place was really more prosperous than in the photos!
The huge harbor is full of masts, and there is no end in sight to the ships docked!
The city is full of high-rise buildings, the streets are horizontal and vertical, and the cars are like flowing water!
The flags of the shops along the way are like clouds, and the pedestrians who are resting are sweating like rain!
The delegation led by him stayed at the Imperial Hotel, and after a short rest, they were cordially received by King Zhang Anguo.
Chen Yizhong, the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, tactfully explained the marriage between the two countries, and King Zhang Anguo immediately promised to formally propose to the prince of the Great Song Dynasty in the near future------ after the war, if possible, the marriage between the two could be completed immediately.
Chen Yizhong, the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, smiled slightly and was very proud, it seems that the other party also likes this marriage.
Then the second thing was mentioned, which was the question of the future demarcation of the border between the two countries on land.
This request was something that King Zhang Anguo did not expect, and they didn't even start a formal declaration of war, so they thought of the question of fighting for the fruits of the war?!
King Zhang Anguo said lightly: "We abide by the conditions agreed before------ Youyun Sixteen Prefectures will definitely be returned to the Great Song Dynasty------ other issues can be discussed after the war is over!" ”
Chen Yi, the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, smiled slightly, so it seems that the sixteen states of Youyun can be guaranteed.
He then tactfully mentioned the issue of the border between the northern and northwestern parts of the Great Song Dynasty.
King Zhang Anguo was surprised that he could still clearly say the latitude and longitude------ the world map issued by the Federal Empire over the years seemed to have a promotional effect, at least even Chen Yizhong, who was already middle-aged and elderly, could accurately mention it.
King Zhang Anguo looked at the world map hanging on the wall, and said with a smile: "It's too early to draw the border between the two sides, so it's better to look at the results of the subsequent war." ”
Chen Yizhong, the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, was overjoyed after hearing this, as long as you are willing to talk!
When the army of the Federal Empire captured Zhending City with lightning speed, the whole of the Great Song Dynasty government was rejoicing!
The world maps and globes issued by the Federal Empire are simply selling like crazy------ they are no longer only bought by the curious.
Some unscrupulous craftsmen of the Great Song Dynasty took the opportunity to imitate and enlarge the printing, they didn't understand the proportional method at all, but they even imitated it decently by copying it rigidly!
There was even a large world map embroidered on cotton-colored silk, and the latitude and longitude were exactly the same.
The Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun in the Great Song Dynasty should be recovered, but the vast expanse of land in the north and northwest has aroused the worries of those who have a heart.
How would they have known that the world was so big!
If the Tatars were driven out and replaced by the Federal Empire, it would be uncomfortable------ the Song Dynasty officials and the Prime Minister and the Privy Council had discussed this matter.
Therefore, Chen Yizhong personally talked about this matter with King Zhang Anguo, and wanted to take the opportunity to test it.
The result is very good, this temptation method of advancing and retreating has made King Zhang Anguo have said his bottom line:
Looking at the final outcome of the war, everything can be discussed.
Next, Chen Yizhong, the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, also said the requirements of the Privy Council.
They need the latest weapons of the Federal Empire, even if they are symbolically sold a few pieces, so that the garrison and forbidden army of Xinbianjing City can have some, so that the officials of the Great Song Dynasty can look at it at ease.
King Zhang Anguo smiled in his heart, and the Great Song Dynasty wanted to imitate it again!
But this time you can't imitate it, you don't understand the gap in technology------ King Zhang Anguo promised to let the person in charge of military production negotiate slowly with the other party, and try to squeeze out some share.
For Chen Yizhong, these three things are the main content, and after completing them, his mind will completely settle down.
Next, he offered to visit the industrial and agricultural production of the Federal Empire.
This is a good thing, and King Zhang Anguo arranged for Foreign Minister Hou Dongfang to accompany him on a casual visit.
At dinner, King Zhang Anguo and his three friends, Song Ziqiang, Wang Defa and Wan Shida, hosted a banquet to entertain Chen Yizhong.
Everyone at the whole banquet was hello and I were very happy to see each other.
However, everything depends on the real outcome of the war!
The two divisions of the Imperial Mixed Independent Division smoothly advanced to a distance of thirty kilometers from the city of Baoding.
Their scout cavalry met the enemy's frantic counterattack there!
The Tatar scouts began to fight back vigorously, no longer retreating in the face of losses, as they had done before.
Their cavalry had increased significantly, and they had learned to disperse and advance, preferring to pay casualties rather than let the scout cavalry reconnoiter smoothly!
Due to their superiority in numbers, and regardless of casualties, this also brought casualties to the Reich's scout cavalry, so they had to retreat------ the middle and lower rank officers of the scout cavalry battalion were all old oilers, so they would not exchange casualty rates with the other side!
The staff officers of the mixed independent division predicted that the other side had arranged a battlefield somewhere in front, and if it was not done well, it would be a trap!
But even the trap can't stop their advance------ the target is Baoding City, all the intrigues and tricks are used!
Of course, strategically despised, tactically must be emphasized.
The staff officers opened the topographic map they had been collecting over the years, trying to determine where the other side might have placed the battlefield, what kind of conspiracy might be used------ and the weapons they could use, this had already been scouted.
Over the years, the Tatar bandits have not been idle, they have also learned to make pistols, grenades, artillery and rockets, it is observed that their level of gunpowder processing is comparable to that of the Great Song Dynasty------ it is not necessary to think about it, it must have been delivered to the Tatars by the Great Song government when it dumped the pot for its own selfish interests.
At this time, Captain Huang Zu of the Special Agent Brigade came to them alone and sent valuable military information.
The staff officers were overjoyed when they took it!
The information clearly marked the latitude and longitude of the enemy's blocking position, as well as the location of the enemy's artillery and rockets!!
The Tatar army has set up a battlefield in an inconspicuous corner, in order to attract our army with a feint of defeat, and then suddenly strike at us with fire.
