Chapter 206: The Last Madness of the Rebels
Huang Cheng also knew that Tang Jiyao didn't dare to make a decision, he knew that big things had to be reported, and small things could be decided by himself, and he knew from the beginning that this was actually a conversation with Qin Yu, and Tang Jiyao was just a messenger.
According to Huang Cheng's understanding of Qin Yu, there is a great chance that this matter is feasible, but Qin Yu's attitude towards them is known from the government's announcement of three months of pacification, and Qin Yu dared to rebel not long after he became the throne, which is simply a slap in the face of Qin Yu, and he dare not guarantee whether it can be done.
"I ...... I don't know how many people are willing to live and die with me, and I won't embarrass you if I quit now, you can also think about it, after this level and the military court, you probably won't live long! Huang Cheng said very calmly to the officers present, in his opinion, it is best for his subordinates to die here, and they don't have to go back to be tried by the military court, after all, they will inevitably die, so why bother to suffer for themselves!
The officers were silent, pondering what to do, and by this time everyone knew they had to make a decision.
"I'm following His Majesty, I'm going to die, everyone will die together!"
"Me ...... too"
The officers and ministers who were willing to commit suicide with Huang Cheng all expressed their positions, and half of the remaining did not speak out, and one-third of this half were indigenous officers, who were still confused and did not know how to choose.
Huang Cheng was very relieved to see half of them, at least he was not alone, he had a group of subordinates following him, and as for those natives, he didn't have any hope at all.
"Your Majesty, we still need to investigate it carefully, I hope you can forgive us for our troubles!" One of the natives, a high-ranking officer, spoke, and the rest of the natives all nodded.
"In that case, then ask the generals to go and rest and let them calm down!"
As soon as Huang Cheng's words fell, a group of Daqi soldiers rushed in and arrested all these indigenous officers, the indigenous officers were frantically trying to struggle, and the soldiers smashed them unconscious with the butt of their guns.
"Hmph, these hateful natives actually cooperated with Britain and wanted to secretly attack us, it is simply looking for death, you take people to control the natives army, it will be useful to go home in the future!" Huang Cheng had only recently learned that the indigenous officers had secretly plotted with Britain to kill him and then sneaked back to India, which made him extremely angry.
Without saying a word, the officers went down and took the soldiers to control the indigenous army. After this frightened, other officers who were unwilling to die with Huang Cheng also expressed their willingness, only a few officers still insisted on not wanting to follow, and Huang Cheng did not embarrass them.
In the eyes of most officers, sacrificing themselves for the safety of more soldiers was worth it, and they ended up with a dead end anyway.
More than half of the indigenous soldiers in the rebel army came secretly from India, and the rest were natives from Nanhai Province, so these indigenous officers have always been associated with Britain, and they don't want to die here with Huang Cheng and them.
The indigenous officers of Nanhai Province also knew that it was not okay for them to continue to stay in Nanhai Province, after all, this was a rebellion and not an ordinary mutiny, and those indigenous families who supported Huang Cheng had secretly moved most of their clansmen to India when they were losing militarily.
Suddenly, a communications soldier rushed into Huang Cheng's resting place under the protection of several soldiers, and handed Huang Cheng a telegram to Huang Cheng, who had woken up in deep thought.
"Your Majesty, Huaxia's telegram!"
Huang Cheng quickly took the telegram and read it, crying as he read it, which made the soldiers next to him very embarrassed.
The content of the telegram was to agree to Huang Cheng's request, but Huaxia also had conditions, one was for Huang Cheng to drive the indigenous army to attack the British garrison in India, and try to consume the strength of the British garrison in India; The second is to ask Huang Cheng to hand over all the people in the country who have helped him rebel or who he is hiding in the country, and to confess all the leaked secrets.
In addition, Qin Yu was extraordinarily generous and allowed him to secretly leave one person to continue the Huang family's incense, but this person must leave the Huaxia Empire and not be allowed to return to China for generations. Of course, these are all code words used in the telegram, and Huang Cheng understands this code language, so he will shed tears.
Huang Cheng knew that it was his last move that gave the Huang family a glimmer of life and would not be extinct, and Qin Yu was still extrajudicial after all.
"Come on, the indigenous soldiers are all over and let the generals come to me after they are done!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The indigenous soldiers did not know that their immediate commander had been arrested, and when the Qi army officer came to take over, he easily prosecuted the indigenous soldiers.
"Ladies and gentlemen, these natives are really hateful, we must teach Britain a lesson, let these natives attack the British garrison, not only can Britain not pay the price, but also reduce our food consumption, the more natives die, the more food we can vacate!" Huang Cheng did not publish the telegram, he knew that this kind of thing could not be published, otherwise the future Chinese government might leave a stain.
"Yes, Britain must be made to pay the price, go to Calcutta, and rob them of their money!"
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
They were more than happy to let the native army attack Britain, the native army had always been a headache, and now their officers wanted to rebel and anger these Qi officers.
Huang Cheng was relieved to see that his goal had been achieved, "Send the last dozen or so tanks too, our people are all following behind, all the arms are on the same page, the Huaxia Empire has agreed to let go of our soldiers, let's carnival!" ”
The officers were not stupid, and after learning that the Huaxia Empire would spare tens of thousands of soldiers, they felt that Huaxia would definitely not let these soldiers continue to serve as soldiers, and this might be the last time they would use guns.
"Let's go crazy again, and make Britain pay, the price of deceiving us!"
"...... right"
The rebels' tanks were wiped out by anti-tank rifles when they fought against the Wehrmacht, and there were only a dozen left, and this time Huang Cheng had to pay the price before he died.
That night, under the watchful eye of tens of thousands of Chinese troops, the indigenous soldiers secretly rushed to the Sadkira area, near the border between India and Nanhai Province, and then rested for several hours before launching a fierce attack on the British garrison in the early hours of the morning.
The British garrison stationed opposite Sadekira did not expect the Qi army to attack them, and the British troops who were still resting hurriedly got up to deal with the enemy, but it was too late, more than a dozen tanks broke through the British defense in an instant, and the whining of enemy attacks sounded over the British positions.
The tank tore through the British defensive line, followed by the indigenous army rushing into the position and attacking the British army, and the Qi army behind frantically opened fire to attack the tents, which were full of native soldiers who had not yet reacted in shock, and the tents were destroyed one by one, and countless screams suddenly sounded.
"Quick, fight back, don't panic!"
The British army was okay, those improvised indigenous armies did not have any military qualities at all, and in the face of this situation, it was a mess, and few natives of the British officers listened to the orders, and they were all running around with their heads in their hands, and the whole position was in a mess.
"Damn, give me back to meet the enemy, don't panic!"
The British army behind them still stubbornly stopped a large number of natives with guns and drove them back to get guns and go to the battlefield.
More than a dozen tanks of the Qi army crisscrossed the British positions, and the British soldiers either surrendered or were directly torn apart by machine guns.
The British army, which had been taken by surprise, retreated towards Calcutta, and British troops from other border areas also rushed to support.
The 100,000 garrisons of the British army and hundreds of thousands of natives are distributed at the junction of Nanhai Province and India, and only less than 50,000 garrisons and about 100,000 natives are stationed near Sadekira, so they can only retreat under the sneak attack of more than 100,000 natives and tens of thousands of Qi troops.
The Qi army pursued the British army all the way to Calcutta, first receiving supplies that the British army had not had time to withdraw to enrich themselves, and then headed towards the destination.
For 140 years, from 1772 to 1911, Kolkata was the capital of British India. During this time, Kolkata has been the center of modern education, science, culture, and politics in India.
In just one day, the British army retreated to Calcutta, as the siege of the Moat of Matara Ditch slowed down, and they had to attack from the south bypassing the moat.
For a moment the whole of Calcutta was in a panic, because it was so urgent that the nobles and British merchants in the city were not able to flee from here.
Fort William was breached under the attack of tanks, and the remaining more than 10,000 British troops resisted, but they were still pressed and beaten by tens of thousands of Qi troops, and finally the British army fled in a hurry, so that the whole of Calcutta fell into the hands of the Qi army.
As soon as the Qi army entered Calcutta, the indigenous army was asked to loot gold, silver and jewelry, and 100,000 native soldiers launched a frenzied raid, shooting anyone as long as they resisted, because the Qi army promised to give them half of the money afterwards.
Calcutta was filled with gunfire, the raids of the indigenous soldiers provoked a revolt by the whites and nobles, and the result was a massacre, while the Qi army systematically destroyed all the military installations and factories, and after more than ten hours they headed south with all the gold, silver and jewelry, ready to make a big turn back to Sadkira.
Just a few hours after the departure of the Qi army, the British army gathered in Calcutta with hundreds of thousands of natives, only to see a devastated city, full of panic, and the lower natives took the opportunity to carry out a second raid, and they had to send a large number of soldiers to maintain order.
The enraged British led the indigenous army to launch a frantic pursuit of the Qi army, vowing to pay the price.
The news of the breach of Calcutta caused a huge storm after reaching Britain, and the British government issued a death order to leave the Qi army in India, openly declared war on the Great Qi Empire, and the British Indian Ocean Fleet crossed the border between the two countries and entered the waters of Great Qi.
