Chapter 373: Spanish Army (I)
Ten days ago, 45,000 men from three divisions of Taiwan officially landed on Sumatra and obtained permission from various countries. However, Taiwan is absolutely not able to occupy Sumatra, because Sumatra is an important place that controls the Strait of Malacca, so if Taiwan directly occupies it, I am afraid that it will be attacked by Western countries. And in the course of the war, the island of Sumatra cannot be blocked, otherwise all countries will put pressure on Taiwan. Therefore, Wang Guorui knows very well that if he rashly occupies Sumatra Island under the condition that his own strength is not good, it may cause a very dangerous situation, and at that time Western countries will take the initiative to attack, and then fight with Taiwan endlessly. But then, Wang Guorui had already told the front line to fight against the Spanish army as much as possible to eliminate the Spanish army.
"Report to the commander-in-chief, our army is already less than twenty miles away from the Spaniards, and according to the news from the scouts, the Spaniards have begun to build fortifications, and they are preparing for our attack!" Someone said.
And Ma Junhui, the former commander-in-chief of the enemy of Taiwan's West Borneo Military Region, snorted: "These guys, can they do anything?" We also want to tell them that with our absolute strength, it will be easy for us to clean them up. Their army of more than 100,000 is not much better than more than 100,000 pigs in our eyes! โ
Taiwan's armed forces do have this proud capital, because a large part of the military tactical drills of those Western countries come from Taiwan, and many of them have been changed from Taiwan's drills. Although Western countries will never admit it, Taiwan knows this situation very well. And as their "grandfather", it is natural to teach them a good lesson and let them know to respect "grandfather". It's like a certain island country, after learning so much Chinese culture, and finally thinking that he is the boss, thinking that he seems to have become the boss and looks down on his grandfather. But in fact, when Master Zu really exerts his strength and can really move, then they can easily let them ruin miรจ.
And those second-rate Western countries actually dare to mess around in front of Taiwan and dare to plot against Taiwan, which is absolutely intolerable. At present, Taiwan's enemies are Britain, France, and Russia, while Germany is a potential ally. As for Japan, they are just some dry bones in the grave, and they are not taken into account by Taiwan. And although Japan is clamoring to defeat Taiwan and settle on the mainland, in fact, Taiwan does not take them seriously at all, and does not take them as the enemy of the first grade. As for Spain, although Taiwan may not be able to kill Europe, it is normal to teach them a hard lesson, so Ma Junhui is also very polite and wants to clean them up directly. This is a foreign war, and China's foreign wars have always been lost, if this time can defeat the Westerners, even if it is only a second-rate Western country, it will be very helpful for their own prestige at home.
"Advance, as far as you can, to the Spanish army, and we will fight them once!" Ma Junhui said.
Soon the Taiwanese army accelerated again, hoping to reach the side of the Spanish army as best they could, and then engage in a battle with the Spaniards. And what will happen to those Spanish troops? I'm afraid they're all getting ready for battle!
"You must do your best to dig the fortifications, if those yellow-skinned monkeys from Taiwan come by then, then I am afraid that if we do not have perfect fortifications, it will be a big trouble." This was stated by the commander of the Spanish Army, Boris.
Boris looked at the Spanish soldier who was digging the fortifications, but he saw the rifle in his soldier's hand and sighed. Of course, he knows that his side is inferior in terms of weapons now, Taiwan's army is better than the Germans' army weapons, not only grenadiers, mortars and machine guns, but the fire density is more than ten times stronger than that of the German ** team, and this kind of firepower density is enough to make anyone desperate. In fact, the Spaniards did not intend to really start a war with Taiwan this time, but only wanted to plot against Taiwan. If we can seize sea supremacy, and then Japan will cooperate, then there will naturally be no problem. But now because of the leakage of secrets by the Japanese traitors, the Spaniards suffered heavy losses, and now they are unable to win the war. Taiwan's army has already attacked, and then it is possible to fight the Spanish army of more than 100,000 at any time, so I am afraid that he will not be able to defeat them at all. Don't look at the number of Spaniards is several times that of Taiwan's army, but the war of this era is no longer about the number of people in the era of cold weapons, but about firepower. Only if the density of firepower is sufficient, that can be used as the basis of combat effectiveness. As for the number of people to say, it doesn't make sense at all. The population of the Manchu continent is enough, but in the end, it was not defeated by tens of thousands of people? In addition to the reason for the backwardness of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, there is actually a situation, that is, the firepower density is not the opponent of the other side at all, so that the soldiers can not collapse?
So even Boris doesn't have much confidence in the more than 100,000 soldiers he has in his hands, even if they have more numbers. So now Boris can only sigh with a sigh, apparently there is no way in the slightest. And then, Boris did not know how to deal with the domestic bureaucrats, and what would happen to those bureaucrats at that time?
"General Boris, an order has come from the rear, ordering us to defeat the army of Taiwan as best we can, and then go to the aid of the Philippines. If the Philippines loses, it will be a huge loss for us Spain. Therefore, the domestic order is that we must do our best to defeat the Taiwan Army, otherwise we will bear all the responsibilities! Boris's adjutant said.
Boris said angrily: "Bastard, how can these domestic guys give such an order? Don't they know that our army can hardly be an opponent of Taiwan? Didn't they give such an order for us to die? As for what they say to support the Philippines, it is even more ridiculous, why do they not have any military common sense? โ
But Boris's adjutant said helplessly: "General, I think this is just a method of those politicians in the country." By ordering us to do everything we can to defeat the Taiwan army, they actually want to shirk our responsibility. It's not that they don't know the strength of the Taiwanese army, but they know the strength of the Taiwanese army very well. They knew that the war was close to defeat, and then they had to prepare themselves for what was going on. For example, after the war, there will definitely be someone who will come out to shoulder this responsibility, and the people in China will be very angry about the loss of the Philippines, and even want to topple the government. At that time, the cabinet had to be ousted en masse, and this was unacceptable to the bureaucrats in the country. Therefore, those bureaucrats already have a plan, that is, they deliberately ordered us to defeat the Taiwanese army, and then it means that they are also 'doing their best'. Then as for whether we can defeat the Taiwan army, it will depend on us. However, if we fail and fail to defeat the Taiwan army, then we will bear the responsibility for such a situation. At that time, we, the front-line generals, not only had to be defeated, but also because of the defeat, those politicians in the country shirked their responsibilities to us, and they could avoid taking responsibility as much as possible. โ
"Damn, these guys are politicians!" Boris said angrily.
The idea of these politicians must be to avoid responsibility for themselves, so that they do not have to step down. But this situation is enough to make many people angry. After all, in order to avoid taking responsibility, those politicians actually ordered those troops to defeat the Taiwan army in such disregard of military common sense, and isn't this forcing them to die? And this is more than 100,000 troops, more than 100,000 lives, if it is dragged to death like this, it may have a great impact. But in order to keep their positions and their family's reputation and status, those politicians really don't care about anything. Anyway, they all know that Taiwan will not be able to take the initiative to attack Spain, and they are all enjoying peace at home. So those politicians don't know that the hungry men are hungry, and they don't know the hardships of the front-line soldiers, so they also take it for granted. Those politicians are good at playing politics and fighting, but if they want to talk about the real war and war, they are not clear at all, or they are deliberately unwilling to be clear at this time. The military of politicians is completely a creature of two minds!
Therefore, for the sake of their own glory and wealth, those front-line soldiers who politicians did not hesitate to sell, anyway, the dead are not themselves, what do they have to worry about? As long as their glory and wealth can be preserved, it is worth dying in many people, and then these soldiers will also die as they deserve, this is also what those politicians think.
"General Boris, the Chinese are coming!" Boris's adjutant said.
"Coming? It's finally here! Boris said.
Ma Junhui used a telescope to see the Spanish military camp seven or eight kilometers away, and then said to a liaison officer of the political department: "You go and persuade Boris to surrender, after all, this is also a etiquette, if they are willing to surrender, it is naturally best, if they are not willing to surrender, then it is not too late to start a war again." After all, the most important thing should be to surrender without a fight. โ
"Yes!" The liaison officer said.
Soon, the liaison officer came to Boris's headquarters with a letter of persuasion from Ma Junhui, and then persuaded Boris to surrender. (To be continued.) )
