The yellow fog gradually lifted, and Flores, the governor of New Spain, who was standing on the tower and watching, looked there with a worried face, full of anxiety. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"What the hell is going on in the trenches? Can anyone tell me? Flores leaned out as he leaned over the railing, and the servants next to him had to pull him to prevent him from falling off the tower.

When the fog had almost cleared, Flores was finally able to see what was going on over there, and the bodies of some Spaniards lay in the inner and outer sides of the trench, and although it was impossible for Flores to see their appearance at this distance, he was able to make up the horrible deaths of these people with ease.

"Both...... All dead?! Flores had vaguely guessed, but when he actually saw the corpses all over the ground, he was still shocked and terrified that was hard to hide.

The adjutant next to him was also trembling, and guessed: "Did you get poisoned and died?" But what kind of poison is that, which can kill thousands of people so quickly? ”

This problem made Flores quickly realize a problem, and he made the northern defense line the most important part of the entire defensive front of Mexico City, where about 2,000 Spanish soldiers and armed civilians fought, which was also the most critical part of Flores' troops. Now that more than 2,000 people have all died under this yellow poisonous fog, not only can the Tang army drive straight into Mexico City directly, but Flores does not have enough troops to fight against the Tang people.

Apathy!

Flores knew that the possibility of continuing to hold out was gone, and what terrified him even more was if the Dons ended up using the weapon throughout Mexico City. Then no one will be able to escape. He will also end up being killed. As a noble officer. Flores naturally knew that he would also be treated relatively well after surrendering, and Datang was a civilized country recognized by Europeans. At the time of the North American Revolutionary War, the British officers captured by the Tang Army were not humiliated and their lives were saved. Flores knew this, so he still had some hope, knowing that he could resist resolutely, at least show the Spanish royal family that he had worked hard, and finally surrendered or was captured. There is also an explanation. However, if the Tang people were really impatient to use this yellow poison mist weapon, then his life would be gone.

"Why does the Tang Army always have an endless stream of secret weapons in his hands?" Flores said with annoyance that just when everyone thought that the Tang people had shown all their hole cards, the Tang people could always give them a big surprise.

The officers around them were all beating in their hearts when they saw the killing effect of mustard gas, and they naturally didn't know that the Tang Army didn't carry much of this kind of thing, and it was not enough to envelop the whole of Mexico City in poison gas as they imagined. This did not affect the great fear they generated, and some of them were killed by bullets, even if they were not afraid of death and hoped to die for Spain on the battlefield. Being killed by a sword is completely different from being poisoned by a poison gas. No one wants to die so dishonorably.

So everyone's eyes were filled with a kind of begging when they looked at Flores. They wanted Flores to make a decision and surrender to the Don, at least so that they didn't need to die. Naturally, Flores can also feel the huge pressure, even if he surrenders to the Tang people and finally survives, but after he returns to the Iberian Peninsula, he will be greeted by all kinds of spitting, and he may even be able to turn over. Unlike the political environment in England, the Spanish monarchy is still full of old-fashioned characteristics, and the likes and dislikes of a monarch are likely to determine a person's career. And no monarch, unless he has great vision and courage, will not use a useless man who has lost millions of square kilometers of his country's territory.

Flores still pretended to mutter for a moment, and then made an impassioned statement, "I know that everyone here wants to represent the Kingdom of Spain and fight the Tang Army to the end for honor and hope. I firmly believe that all of you are good officers who are brave and dedicated. However, the fierce Tang army used special weapons, which were able to take a large number of military lives, and more likely to cause a large number of civilian casualties. We denounce the immorality of the Tang people, but we have to think about the lives of ordinary people in Mexico City. If the Dons, who lack a sense of honor and are ruthless, use this weapon in Mexico City in order to conquer us, then hundreds of thousands of people will be threatened, which is something we cannot bear...... So, for the sake of the lives of the civilians, I made the decision to surrender to the Don Army! ”

Leaving aside Flores' far-fetched logic, none of the Spanish officers raised objections at this time, but felt a sense of relief. They had long known that the Kingdom of Spain would not send a single soldier to support them, and they were facing the Tang Army, which was several times larger in size, and the Tang Army, which was more equipped and tactically superior, and this battle could not be won

Just when Flores was about to send someone to surrender to the Tang army, he didn't expect his rear to be chaotic again. At this time, the Central Committee of the Mexican National Revolutionary Party, General Secretary Ilgodo, after learning that the Tang Army had used mustard gas to kill and wound a large number of Spanish soldiers, launched a civic uprising again.

Although the previous raid of the city had severely damaged the power of the NRA, the core of Ilgodoand and the NGR was basically undamaged, and there were still a large number of party members in the city, as well as civilians who were inclined to the NREC. Ilgodo organized hundreds of workers and citizens to storm the Doge's Palace again. Wisely, instead of choosing to fight the defenders of the city, they began to occupy some important nodes, such as controlling the city's transportation.

Flores also heard that there was another riot in the city, but at this time Flores was not in the mood to quell the uprising, he ordered the defenders to retreat, not to take the initiative to confront the rebels, and on the other hand, sent a message to the Don Army command that thousands of Spanish soldiers under his command were willing to surrender.

In fact, in Mexico City, more than half of the people supported the Kingdom of Spain, after all, it was the place where the Kingdom of Spain had been operating for 200 years, and it was also the place where the most peninsulars from Spain mainland lived, and there were also a large number of vested interests in the city.

However, when the residents of the city saw the strength of the mustard gas, they were naturally stunned, and the Tang people had the ability to wipe them out without losing anything, which made these people understand that unless they surrendered, they might not even be able to save their lives, because under such weapons, they would not be able to resist even if they resisted.
