524 Lost Moves
No tribute, no harmony, no land cession, no reparations. This is the rule set by the Ming Empire from the time of the founding emperor www.biquge.info and it is also the highest diplomatic program.
These four noes, in the hundreds of years of time, have never been broken, after the glory of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, when the Ming Empire fell into embattlement, did not sign a single treaty to lose power and humiliate the country.
Even in those years, Ceylon betrayed the ancestral land and rebelled against the imperial court overseas, even in the era when Japan rebelled and colluded with Liaodong as one party, the Ming Empire did not recognize any loss-making treaties.
It's just that the Ming Empire signed several treaties that finally recognized the actual status of the attack area when the attack was blocked.
For example, after the defeat to the British, it recognized that the British, as well as the United Kingdom's united Europa states, had diplomatic power equal to that of the Ming Empire.
Another example is the recognition of the semi-independent Ottoman regions, the agreement with Muscovy and Africa as British colonies.
In addition, there is the Inter-American Treaty with the United States...... With these treaties in place, it is not unacceptable to accept that this war to regain the lost territories was actually unsuccessful.
The only thing that put unprecedented pressure on the foreign affairs of the Ming Empire was that this time the British wanted land on the Indian side and Ceylon's actual international status.
On the Indian side, the Ming Empire has reached a tacit understanding, and there is no difference between the regions that are not ministers or tribute, and even taxes and management and even the army have their own set of management methods.
But for the Ming Empire to actually admit that Ceylon is not Middle-earth, then this is against the supreme authority of the Ming Empire's "non-cedenation" constitution......
Not to mention Zhu Mu, the young emperor, even if the Emperor of the Apocalypse climbed out of the coffin board, he probably wouldn't dare to speak easily on this kind of issue.
In such a situation, it becomes very interesting what kind of armistice agreement the Ming Empire was able to reach with the British.
The ministers who were counting on the peace talks did not understand this cause and effect, and were anxious to let Zhu Mu have peace talks with the British, so they came out this time.
Of course, the center of the dignified Ming Empire, naturally only a few people who are concerned about their vital interests will be dizzy and get involved in this kind of thing.
Those who really have brains can only wait at this time, wait for Sun Fang to find a way to set the tone of the peace talks, wait for His Majesty the Emperor's cadres to be arbitrary, and wait for the battlefield to really divide the victory and defeat.
……
And at this time, the battlefield was really going to be divided into a winner - the second wave of Ceylon's landing force appeared on time, but the fleet of the Ming Empire could no longer prevent them from approaching the beach.
Naval artillery bombarded the positions of the Ming Empire on Luzon, and the support became more and more orderly. Before the Ming Empire went to war, there were not many bombs left for bombers to be transported to Luzon Island.
Because it's so easy to use, it's too much to use. After seriously damaging the battleship Yue Fei, Ceylon's fleet was also forced to withdraw from the battle, and the contest between the two sides once again took place on a level playing field.
The defenders of the Ming Empire had the advantage of the terrain, and the landing force of Ceylon had the advantage of numbers, and the two sides fought bloodily on the position, and they fought until sunset on the same day.
Part of the victory or defeat here, the war between Ceylon and the Ming Empire, there is no winner or loser, and across the sea from this battlefield is the fierce competition in the South Vietnamese region.
Wang Jue personally went into battle and repeatedly engaged the enemy in Da Nang, seeing that he had captured this important port. Once this port is lost, Ceylon will not have any points left on the southeastern peninsula that are too easy to defend and difficult to attack.
It is important to know that the southeast peninsula is not only covered by tropical rainforests and endless mountainous terrain, but also plains at the southern tip of the peninsula that are suitable for habitation, cultivation and even some industry.
With all four seasons like spring, there are many precious and rare mineral deposits, and the key is that compared to the mountainous areas that were easy to defend and difficult to attack before, this place is too suitable for the attack of tank troops.
As long as Wang Jue is allowed to rush here, the war may spread to Bangkok and other areas within a month, and at that time, the entire southeast peninsula may no longer be the world of Ceylon.
Therefore, in this case, the most anxious to negotiate peace with the Ming Empire may be Ceylon, the country most hostile to the Ming Empire.
However, under Wang Jue's attack, they could only be beaten. Not to mention counterattacking, they can't even come up with a truly effective defense.
"The positions on the flanks are going wrong again? The enemy threw more than 20 tanks into the position, directly attacking the position? A Ceylonese officer, standing next to the map, asked his men, whose faces were covered in blood and who had just retreated from the front.
"Didn't I order you to die, and die on your own ground?" He slapped the table angrily, but he really didn't want to open his mouth and kill his beloved general like this.
One morning, two positions were lost, and the defensive positions on the flank of Da Nang were almost half lost. In this case, it is only a matter of time before Da Nang is under siege.
All the commanders on the first line of positions had already been executed at this time, and their heads were still hanging on the flagpole not far from the headquarters.
Despite this, the second position was still lost, and it was lost very simply. Wang Jue was reinforced by a new group army, and this group army that went south was a newly formed unit.
There is nothing special about the infantry, but this group army has hundreds of tanks, and Wang Jue uses these tanks as the vanguard to attack the position of Ceylon, which is basically invincible.
Under the cover of various aircraft, the attacking forces of the Ming Empire captured the outer positions of Da Nang of Ceylon at a much smaller cost than the losses of the Ceylonese troops on the beaches of Luzon.
Those defensive positions on the periphery of Da Nang, which had been painstakingly operated for several years, and had a few months at the shortest, were lost in two days.
Wang Jue was really good at offensive operations, he first used suspicious soldiers to attack everywhere, found the defensive focus of the Ceylon defenders, and then chose to storm in some areas and mobilize the opponent's reserve troops into the position.
He would then throw tanks in other places to open gaps in the defenders' defenses and fill those gaps with infantry.
Sometimes this was interrupted by the artillery fire of the defenders, but he was not discouraged and continued to try the same way. Make the most of your strength, wear down your enemies and take the initiative on the battlefield.
Relying on his own large number of troops, trying to disperse his offensive area, and using more contact surfaces to tear the enemy, Wang Jue's shameless move can be said to be a bad move that most enemies have no way to crack.
