Chapter 809: A Strategic-Level Enemy

On August 29, 1360, outside Liuchuan City, the capital of Jinjiang Province, the sound of artillery rumbled, and hundreds of fighters were fighting each other in the sky, the scene was quite lively, but in the headquarters of the Kas army in Liuchuan City, the atmosphere was extremely depressing. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

As the commander-in-chief of the Kas army in Liuchuan Castle and the commander of the 42nd Mechanized Infantry Division of the Kas Army, Lieutenant General Ethellya was very haggard at this time, and the other four major generals of the Cass Army also had a very bad face.

The four major generals of the Kass Army are Emir Zid, commander of the 27th Light Infantry Division, Ennazi Karu, commander of the 33rd Garrison Division, Yassel Shaharani, commander of the 34th Garrison Division, and Grigorenko, commander of the 67th Garrison Division.

Ethelia said in a hoarse voice: "After the Chu people launched their attack this morning, it has only been less than 5 hours now, and almost half of our positions outside Liuchuan City have been lost, especially the position on the east side outside the city, only the last line of defense remains, and there is also bad news, that is, our retreat to the west has been cut off by the Chu people, Pingxiang County and Xiping County in the west have been captured by the Chu people's army, and Liuchuan City has fallen into the siege of the Chu people. ”

Ethelia said three "alreadys" in a row, which made the faces of the four major generals of Cass even more ugly.

At this time, Major General Yasel Shaharani, commander of the 34th Garrison Division of the Kass Army, couldn't help asking: "Isn't there a 61st Light Infantry Division in Pingxiang County and Xiping County to the west of Liuchuan City?" Where is the 61st Light Rifle Division now? After Pingxiang County and Xiping County were occupied by the army of the Chu people, didn't our Liuchuan City become a turtle in an urn? ”

According to the plan of Sophinea, the king of the Kingdom of Kas, the remnants of the Kas army troops in Jinjiang Province were withdrawn to Liuchuan City, the provincial capital, and prepared to carry out a defensive battle in Liuchuan City, which was used to hold back the Chu army that suddenly appeared in Jinjiang Province.

However, in the end, there were only less than 40,000 Cass troops that could withdraw to Liuchuan City, and less than 20,000 security troops, and only one brigade of the 61st Light Infantry Division was stationed in Pingxiang County and Xiping County to the west of Liuchuan City.

From Liuchuan City to the west, passing through Pingxiang County and Xiping County, you can enter the Qingchuan Province near Jinjiang Province, and now Pingxiang County and Xiping County are occupied by the troops under Lin Daxin, and only Liuchuan City, the provincial capital, is still controlled by the Kasi people in the entire Jinjiang Province.

Lieutenant General Ayseria said with a wry smile: "The 61st Light Infantry Division has only one brigade of troops, and it has been stationed in Pingxiang County and Xiping County in time, and now this brigade and the original defenders of the two counties have almost been completely wiped out by the army of the Chu people, except for the air force can give us some support for Liuchuan City, we have fallen into an isolated situation, and according to the current air battle situation, the air force's support for us will be very limited." ”

Next to him, Major General Emil Zid, commander of the 27th Light Infantry Division of the Kas Army, said mournfully: "Then what should we do now? Although we have 1 mechanized infantry division, 2 light infantry divisions, 5 garrison divisions and 1 armored tank brigade here in Liuchuan City, our troops are already dissatisfied, for example, our 27th Light Infantry Division, the troops here in Liuchuan City are less than 7,000 people, in the previous battle, our losses were too great, with our troops with heavy losses, we can't hold on to Liuchuan City for a long time! ”

The above-mentioned troops were all deployed by the Kas Army in Jinjiang Province, and now these Kas Army units have been withdrawn to Liuchuan City according to the order, but among them, there are 1 light infantry division and 2 garrison division commanders, as well as the brigade commander of the armored tank brigade, all of whom have been killed in the previous battle, so at this time, the command of the Kas army in Liuchuan City has only 5 division commanders of the Kas Army.

Lieutenant General Atheelia waved his hand and said: "The battle plan for guarding Liuchuan City was formulated by His Majesty the King himself, no matter how difficult the situation is, we must also persevere, I believe that His Majesty will not sit idly by and watch so many of our troops alone, now let's discuss how to hold out in Liuchuan City for a longer time!" The longer we hold out at Rukawa Castle, the more likely it is that reinforcements will arrive! ”

Ennazi Kalu, commander of the 33rd Garrison Division of the Kass Army, immediately suggested: "Now that there is no point in defending the periphery of Liuchuan City, I suggest that the remaining troops of the various units outside the city be immediately transferred into Liuchuan City, and together with the troops in the city, use street fighting to offset the artillery and air superiority of the Chu people." ”

Grigorenko, commander of the 67th Garrison Division of the Kas Army, followed: "I think we can only do this now, using the buildings in Liuchuan City to engage in street battles with the army of the Chu people, how long can we hold out!" I hope that His Majesty's reinforcements will arrive at Liuchuan Castle before our entire army is destroyed! ”

Lieutenant General Aythelia then asked Major General Emil Zid and Yasser Shaharani: "What do you think?" ”

The commander of the 27th Light Infantry Division, Emil Zid, said with a wry smile: "This is the only way to do it at present, I hope we can hold on for a longer time!" Anyway, I'm ready to sacrifice for the Kas Kingdom, and I will never be a prisoner of the Chu people! ”

The commander of the 34th Garrison Division, Yassel Shaharani, also said: "I really didn't expect our powerful Kas Army to encounter such a situation in the capital of Jinjiang Province, so let's fight with the army of the Chu people!" ”

Lieutenant General Ethelia nodded and said in a deep voice: "Order the remaining troops of the various departments outside the city to immediately hand over their positions to the security forces, withdraw to Liuchuan City as quickly as possible, and prepare for street fighting!" ”

In Liuchuan City, the five division commanders of the Cass Army made up their minds to start a brutal street battle with the troops under Lin Daxin, but the development of the battle in Liuchuan City completely exceeded the expectations of the five division commanders of the Cass Army.

Because of the belief in the security army composed of Chu people, the Kasi people arranged nearly 20,000 security troops in the fortifications outside Liuchuan City, and the result was that the security army really lived up to the expectations of the Cass people, and when the Cass army troops were ordered to withdraw to the city, most of the security forces suddenly counterattacked, and cooperated with the troops under the command of Lin Daxin, and quickly captured all the Cass positions outside Liuchuan City, and many Cass army units had no chance to withdraw into Liuchuan City.

In the end, the officers and soldiers of the Kas Army who could withdraw into Liuchuan City, plus the Kas Army troops in the original city, were only in their early 20,000s.

The house leak happened to rain overnight, and then the Cass Air Force finally dispatched more than 300 fighters, and after losing almost 200 of them, they also had to evacuate the sky over Liuchuan City, announcing that the Cass Air Force's plan to support Liuchuan City was shattered.

Originally, according to the order of King Sophinea, the Kas Air Force was ready to draw out 600 fighters for the defense of Liuchuan City, the capital of Jinjiang Province, but the army under Lin Daxin's command attacked too fast, and when the troops approached Liuchuan City, the Kas Air Force made great efforts and only transferred more than 300 fighters.

Of course, the Kas Air Force did not transfer those fighters for the battlefield of the Great Wu Empire, they were all drawn from the vicinity of Jinjiang Province and the territory of the Kas Kingdom.

It's a pity that the more than 300 fighters that the Cass Air Force took great pains to draw out did not last long in the sky over Liuchuan City, and most of them were shot down by the Air Force under Lin Daxin, and the Air Force under Lin Daxin lost only 7 fighters, and the battle loss ratio of the two air forces was very amazing.

Finally, on the evening of August 30, 1360, the last resisting Kas army officers and soldiers in Liuchuan City, under the leadership of a lieutenant colonel of the Kass army, chose to surrender to the troops under Lin Daxin's command, so that the territory of the entire Jinjiang Province belonged to Lin Daxin.

In the palace of Misgarh City, the capital of the Kingdom of Cas, Sophinea, the king of the Kingdom of Cas, picked up a delicate teacup and slammed it on the ground, and then shouted angrily to the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Cass Tresol, the Minister of War of the Kingdom of Cass Abukar and the Minister of the Air Force of the Kingdom of Cass Haidus: "Why was Liuchuan City captured by the army of the Chu people so quickly, and tens of thousands of troops did not even hold out for two days and nights, is the Kas army in Liuchuan City still our strong army across the Eastern Continent?" You explain it to me! ”

The Minister of War of the Kingdom of Kas, Abukar, immediately smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, it's not that our army doesn't work hard, it's really that the army of the Chu people is too terrifying, all the units of our army in Liuchuan City have done their best, Lieutenant General Athelia, the commander of the 42nd Mechanized Infantry Division of the Army who commanded the defense of Liuchuan City, died heroically in the defense of Liuchuan City, and the commander of the 27th Light Infantry Division of the Army in Liuchuan City, Emil Zid, the commander of the 33rd Garrison Division, Ennazi Karui, The commander of the 34th Garrison Division, Yassel Shaharani, and the commander of the 67th Garrison Division, Grigorenko, were also all killed, and not a single one surrendered to the army of the Chu people, and these generals fought until the last moment and lived up to His Majesty's expectations! ”

Hearing these words of Abukar, King Sophinea's face changed a little.

The Minister of Air Force of the Kingdom of Cass Hajdus continued: "Your Majesty, the army of the Chu people has an air force that is too powerful, and the strength does not only mean that they have many fourth-generation fighters, but also that they have a very large number of ace pilots, our air force because of the rush of time, only mobilized more than 300 fighters to provide air support for the army of Liuchuan City, and then launched a large-scale air battle with the air force of the Chu people, what is frightening is that In just a few hours of air combat, we lost more than 200 fighters, and finally had to give up air supremacy in Rukawa Castle. ”

King Sophinia immediately asked, "Then we should continue to send more fighters, haven't I already approved the transfer of 600 fighters to Liuchuan City?" It is not impossible to send more fighters if needed! ”

Air Force Minister Haidus sighed and said: "Your Majesty, we have lost more than 200 fighters in this air battle, and the fighters lost by the air force of the Chu people may not add up to double digits. ”

Hearing that the air force under Lin Daxin had lost no more than double digits of fighters, King Sophinea, Prime Minister Tressol and War Minister Abukar couldn't help but gasp, this battle loss ratio was indeed a bit scary.

Prime Minister Tresor said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, it seems that the armed forces of the Chu people in Jinjiang Province, we must not underestimate it, the number of fighters they have alone is comparable to all the fighters of a medium-sized air force power, and according to the battle report, their army is also very powerful, with a lot of tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, and the number of large-caliber artillery is also very large. If we want to destroy this army of the Chu people, we must mobilize enough forces, the army must be more than 500,000, and the air force needs to mobilize about 1,000 fighters. ”

"A strategic-level enemy? Is the army of the Chu people in Jinjiang Province really that strong? King Sophinea said to herself, frowning.

War Minister Aboukar agreed with Prime Minister Tresor's words, "Your Majesty, I think the Prime Minister's words are reasonable! The combat effectiveness shown by the Chu army in Jinjiang Province is indeed worthy of us treating them as strategic-level enemies! ”

Air Minister Haidus pondered for a moment and said: "To be honest, even if our Cass Air Force has mobilized thousands of third-generation fighters, I am not very sure that it can defeat the air force of the Chu people in air combat, after all, they have hundreds of fourth-generation fighters, and they have a jaw-dropping number of ace pilots, I don't think it's too much to treat them as strategic-level enemies!" ”

King Sophinea was silent for a long time and did not speak, but his face was extremely gloomy, now the main force of the Kas army is advancing by leaps and bounds on the battlefield of the Great Wu Empire, all the way to triumph, it is the critical moment of the war, I didn't expect that there was a big problem here in the Great Chu Empire.

You must know that the Kas Kingdom has not paid attention to the Great Chu Empire, which relies on several northern provinces to survive, otherwise it would not have launched a war of aggression against the Great Wu Empire without completely destroying the Great Chu Empire, but now the situation in the Great Chu Empire has changed abruptly, which makes the high-level leaders of the Kas Kingdom very uncomfortable.
