Chapter 763: Disarming

After paying nearly 1,000 casualties, the American general Kaleming had to give a decadent order for his troops to withdraw, and then it was too late to evacuate, and a motorized infantry regiment sent by the 88th Army of the Chinese Seventh Army had already caught up with Calleming's troops.

Calemin didn't expect the Chinese troops to come so quickly, Calemin had to ask his subordinates to send a report to the main force of his army, and asked the main force to send an army to reinforce him, but the main force called back to tell him that the main force was also bitten by the two divisions of the Chinese army at this time, like a piece of kraft candy that could not be shaken off.

After learning of this situation, Calemin had to order the main force not to entangle with the two divisions of the Chinese army that were blocking it, and immediately quickly move north, and the two armies converged somewhere in the north.

One chased and one fled, Calemin brought a cavalry unit, but at this time there were only more than 500 cavalry, and a cavalry brigade only had one-third of its strength left, but the marching speed of this cavalry unit was still not as fast as the Chinese motorized infantry regiment pursuing behind, and the rear was quickly caught up, and the two sides immediately fought, and the losses of the American army gradually increased.

After escaping for a day, Calemin and the remaining 300 cavalrymen were sleepy, all the horses ran to the ground, and the knights also lost their horses, and were soon surrounded by the Chinese motorized infantry regiment that caught up, and Calleming and the remaining 300 knights were all captured.

In less than two days after Calemin and others were captured, his main force was also divided and surrounded by the 88th Army, which rushed over, and without Calleming's command, his army quickly collapsed, and all officers and soldiers dropped their weapons and surrendered, in this case. Everyone understands that resistance is futile, and resistance can only seek death.

At this time, the 15th and 26th armies of the Seventh Army continued to be pursued. It also caught up with the Pershing troops, who were fleeing north, and engaged in an exchange of fire with the rear of the Pershing troops. As a result, Pershing's forces began to disperse and surrender on a large scale. In this case, many people in the US military have no confidence, in fact, many people know that the reason why they were surrounded and suppressed by the Chinese troops was because they withdrew without the orders of the Allied High Command, and the Allied High Command would inevitably impose sanctions on them.

After the Pershing forces were overtaken, there was a chain reaction, and a regiment and division of American troops began to disarm and surrender. When Pershing took the remaining 100,000 people to resist the sea in northern Poland to look for ships, he found that there was no large port in northern Poland, and it was basically impossible to find enough large ships.

Kaliningk, a seaside city in northern Poland, where Pershing was stationed with the remaining 100,000 American troops. The local Polish authorities did not even dare to fart.

The American generals were all tired and gathered here, and Pershing looked at his subordinates who were very embarrassed, "The situation is getting worse and worse, there are two Chinese infantry divisions in the direction of Germany. With the current combat effectiveness of our army, it is no longer possible to break through the blocking in front before the Chinese troops behind catch up, what should we do now? ”

A division commander said unceremoniously: "How?" General Pershing. How are you still going back to China? You were wrong in the first place. The order should not have been given to evacuate from the Latvian front, our command has already been transferred to the Allied High Command. This is an agreement signed by the president, and now the country has ordered us to withdraw it, they are trying to kill us, and you, the supreme commander, have never thought about the officers and soldiers below us, you only know that you were promoted by Wilson, you have to be loyal to him, you have to obey him, do you know, we are the American army, not Wilson's, your wrong decision has taken us all into the fire pit, don't you still understand? ”

The chief of staff hurriedly stopped him from continuing: "White, don't talk nonsense, now is not the time for us to fight among ourselves, we can only solve the current trouble by reaching a consensus!" ”

Ignoring the dissuasion of the chief of staff, White stood up and said loudly: "It's not that I want to fight, I don't want to toss anymore, if this continues, we all have to die on the way to escape, I don't want to die, I still want to go back to the United States alive, what kind of bullshit military order of his, I don't want to listen to it anymore, and I won't implement it anymore, I now surrender to the Chinese army with my 27th Division!" ”

"Bang-"

After a single shot, White turned to look at Pershing, and then fell straight to the ground, the muzzle of Pershing's pistol was smoking.

Seeing White fall to the ground, except for the chief of staff, all the other army commanders and division commanders stood up and were full of vigilance against Pershing, and several division commanders took out their pistols and pointed them at Pershing.

Pershing's qualifications and prestige in the U.S. military are insufficient, he was raised by Wilson, he used to be promoted to brigadier general directly past the colonel, and later he was promoted to major general and lieutenant general, and when he was in France, he buried 700,000 American troops because of his mistakes, although he was pushed to the end, but he was soon re-promoted, which in itself made many people in the military dissatisfied, and White's death just now directly angered these army commanders and division commanders.

The chief of staff was shocked and hurriedly stood up to stop: "What are you doing, what are you doing?" What do you want to do? With a gun pointed at the sir, do you want to rebel? ”

A division commander named Nick sneered: "Rebellion? Isn't it a rebellion for us to retreat without an order? Now that we've been identified as rebels, even if we were able to enter Germany, into France, do you think we would really be able to go back to America? Will the French let us board the ship back to the United States without a hitch? Do you think that the Allied High Command eats dry food? Will the French dare to let us pass? ”

Pershing's face was gloomy, and the pistol in his hand was unconsciously put down at this time, he didn't dare to use the gun at these commanders and division commanders at this time, once the gun was fired again, maybe he would be the next person to fall, he looked at these unkind army commanders and division commanders and said in a deep voice: "What do you want?" ”

Nick said coldly: "What do we want, don't you know, sir?" In this situation, is there any other way out for us but to disarm and surrender? Unless you want to take all of us to death? I can tell you, I don't want to die yet, and if you want me to die, I'm going to let you die!" ”

"Yes, we can't escape anymore, it's better to disarm and surrender, we don't have to run away desperately, the Chinese army can't kill us, right? I'll definitely let us go back then."

"Yes, the only way to survive now is to disarm and surrender!"

The army commanders and division commanders expressed their ideas and positions one by one, and now the situation is almost one-sided, and no army commanders and division commanders support Pershing except for the chief of staff.

Prague, headquarters of the 7th Army Corps.

Xiao Zhang, an operational staff officer, reported to Liu Chenglong: "General, Pershing, they have surrendered!" ”

"Surrendered? All surrendered? Liu Chenglong was a little surprised.

"Yes, all surrendered!"

Liu Chenglong frowned and said: "This is not in line with Pershing's character, how could he surrender?" ”

Xiao Zhang said with a smile: "General, you don't know, of course Pershing will not surrender, but he can't command the army anymore, and his generals have controlled him and forced him to lead his troops to surrender."

Liu Chenglong smiled when he heard this: "So that's the case!" Okay, okay, send a telegram to General Cai, General Zhang, and General Cai immediately."

"Yes, General!" Xiao Zhang hurriedly agreed, and said: "A telegram was sent from the front asking how to deal with those Americans who surrendered?" ”

Liu Chenglong thought for a while and said to Xiao Zhang: "Temporarily put them in centralized custody, isolate the officers and soldiers, and send a telegram to General Cai, asking what to do with Pershing and other senior generals?" ”

"Yes!"

Not long after, Xiao Zhang came to report again: "General, the Allied High Command has sent a telegram instructing to imprison Pershing and escort other American generals of the rank of general to Warsaw."

Liu Chenglong immediately called his adjutant and asked the adjutant to handle this matter in person.

Huaguo Jingcheng, Presidential Palace.

Xiao Zhenlei received a call from Jiang Baili, "President, Cai Ye sent a telegram from Hua Sofa, Pershing's hundreds of thousands of American troops have all been disarmed and surrendered, he sent a telegram asking for instructions on how to deal with those hundreds of thousands of American troops and Pershing and others?" ”

After listening to this, Xiao Zhenlei asked, "What is his opinion?" ”

Jiang Baili said on the phone: "Cai Yi suggested appointing a person as the commander from among the remaining senior generals of the US army, and then sending the hundreds of thousands of US troops to the front line after retraining, and the Allied High Command could not support them in vain!" ”

Xiao Zhenlei thought for a moment and asked, "What do you think?" ”

Jiang Baili said: "I think Cai Yi's suggestion is feasible, but how to make those hundreds of thousands of people willingly go to the battlefield again is a troublesome thing."

Xiao Zhenlei said: "Aren't they still having a mission to complete? Although the evacuation has nothing to do with the soldiers and officers, it is an order from Pershing, but if they want to go back, they must finish the battle before leaving, you tell Cai Ye and let him tell the American generals that after the war, we will arrange ships to send them back to the United States."

"Understood!"

The U.S. generals were extremely surprised by Cai Ge's request that they retrain their troops and then bring them to the battlefield to fight with the Russians. Cai Ye told them that this time there will be an army of Chinese troops stationed near the US army, supervising them at any time, and then sending them back to the United States when this war is over.
