At the headquarters of the coalition forces in the city of Ufa, the atmosphere was very depressing, and the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, Hindenburg, looked at Doloreske, who was pale, and continued: "Counting the 6 infantry divisions sent by our command to support, and the addition of 2 division commanders who died in battle, so many coalition officers and soldiers fought bloodily and paid very large losses, so that the attack forces of the Chinese Empire did not occupy too many positions of our coalition forces, and even if they occupied the positions, they would also pay a great price, but General Doloresk, Your position has almost been ceded to the attacking forces of the Chinese Empire, what do you think we should do with you? If you are released like this, how can I explain to the fallen soldiers? ”

For the commander of the Austro-Hungarian infantry division who escaped from the battle, in fact, Hindenburg had already given him a death notice in his heart, and now the army of the Chinese Empire has begun a large-scale attack on the position of the coalition forces outside the city of Ufa, although it has only been a day, and it is only more than 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and it is not even a whole day, the powerful offensive of the Chinese Imperial army has already brought very great pressure to Hindenburg, and the army of the Chinese Empire is indeed worthy of its name, and its combat effectiveness is extremely strong, In particular, the fighter planes that have not disappeared in the sky have made Hindenburg have a deep sense of powerlessness.

According to a rough calculation, from 8 o'clock in the morning, the army of the Chinese Empire began to attack, until now, the positions guarded by 10 coalition infantry divisions have been captured by the troops of the Chinese Empire, plus the losses sent to support the troops, the number of coalition troops killed has exceeded 100,000, such an astonishing loss, is the Hindenburg with millions of troops in hand. My heart trembled.

Now if military law is not applied to this major general of the Austro-Hungarian Army who retreated without authorization, then under the powerful offensive of the Chinese Empire. Commanders of infantry divisions of other countries, if there is a way to do it. If he does not defend the position, let alone say anything about the plan he formulated to completely defeat the Chinese Imperial army outside Ufa City, even Ufa City will not be defended.

When Doloreske heard this, he was terrified, and when he heard what Hindenburg meant, he would not let himself go, so he immediately turned his head and shouted to the Austro-Hungarian Army General Gloria: "General Gloria, I am willing to take the blame for the crime and lead the troops immediately." A counteroffensive against the lost positions will definitely recapture the positions of our division. ”

Gloria also understood what Hindenburg meant, this was to make an example of others, but no matter what, Doloresk was also a general of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, so Gloria hesitated for a moment and said: "General Hindenburg, do you want Doloreske, a bastard, to lead the troops to counterattack once." Maybe ......"

Before Gloria could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Hindenburg, who interjected: "General Gloria, at yesterday's military meeting. We have already made it very clear that anyone who evacuates the battlefield without permission will be dealt with by military law. It's not negotiable, come on. Pull this escaped major general out of the battle for me, and execute him immediately! ”

2 German soldiers standing behind Doloreske. Hearing Hindenburg's order, he immediately grabbed Doloresk by the arm and dragged Doloresk out of the headquarters.

"Don't! No! Help me! I don't want to die! General Gloria, help! Doloreske struggled, but could not break free from the hands of the two German soldiers.

Gloria opened his mouth and didn't say anything more, after all, at yesterday's military meeting, he also agreed to the decision to implement military law for those who retreated without authorization, and it was not his turn to be the head of the Austro-Hungarian Army, so he changed his mind, and finally glanced at Doloreske, who was shouting hoarsely for help, Gloria sighed helplessly.

Immediately Doloreske was dragged out of the coalition headquarters, and soon after a crisp gunshot came from outside, Major General Doloreske, the commander of the Austro-Hungarian infantry division, because he led the troops to withdraw from the position without authorization, was shot by the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, Hindenburg, cleanly, the news quickly spread to all the coalition troops inside and outside the city of Ufa, so that those senior officers of the coalition army trembled in their hearts, it seems that this time it was a real game, and a major general division commander said that he would be killed, In the face of the attack of the Chinese Imperial Army, they can only stumble, otherwise the fate of this commander of the Austro-Hungarian infantry division is likely to fall on them.

After the sound of gunfire came from outside the headquarters, Hindenburg said in a deep voice to the army commanders of the other six countries: "It is about to get dark, so that the warplanes of the Chinese Empire cannot continue to bomb us, it is time for us to counterattack the Chinese Imperial Army, order the counterattack troops to get ready, and immediately launch a counterattack on the positions occupied by the Chinese Empire after dark!" ”

At this time, in the headquarters of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire outside the city of Ufa, Zhao Shanwu, the commander of the Fifth Guards Army, who had just returned to the headquarters by car from the front line, had a very ugly face, and today his Fifth Guards Army invested a large number of troops and launched a fierce attack on the forward positions of the coalition forces, although it has achieved considerable results, and has so far occupied the positions of the coalition forces nearly 1 kilometer deep, but the Fifth Guards Army has also paid a very heavy price for this.

Zhao Shanwu said to the commander-in-chief Ni Fan in a deep voice: "The following troops have just sent a rough statistics of losses, our Fifth Guards Army lost 35 heavy Panther tanks, 59 light Black Wolf tank tank regiments and 31 Z2 armored vehicles in today's attack, nearly 9,000 people were killed, and more than 6,000 people were injured, of which 1,500 were seriously injured. It may not be possible to capture many coalition positions at all today. ”

Ni Fan frowned and said: "I didn't expect the coalition army to have so many large-caliber anti-aircraft guns, it only took one day to fight, and we lost nearly 100 tanks, this loss is a bit big, and the attack in one day killed and injured 15,000 people, advancing less than 1 kilometer, it seems that the bones of Ufa City are not easy to gnaw!" It is about to get dark, and the air force is ready to return to the temporary airfield near the city of Chelyabinsk, Lao Zhao, your Fifth Guards will immediately stop the offensive and immediately use the captured coalition positions to defend against the counterattack of the coalition forces. After dark, the coalition forces in the city of Ufa will definitely seize the opportunity of our air force to be unable to fight at night. A massive counterattack against us. ”

Zhao Shanwu nodded and said, "I have ordered the follow-up troops of our Fifth Guards Army to rush to repair the occupied coalition fortifications. Now I will order the attacking force at the front to immediately switch from attack to defense, even without the support of the air force, our Fifth Guards will not let the coalition forces take advantage of anything. ”

Around 5 o'clock in the afternoon outside the city of Ufa, because it is winter, it is relatively early, and it has darkened at this time, although it is not completely dark, but it has not been long since it was dark. The forward positions of the coalition forces in the east, which had been raging in battle, suddenly stopped.

The attacking force of the Fifth Guards of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire received an order to stop continuing the offensive on the positions of the coalition forces and switched to defending on the spot, preparing for the counterattack of the coalition forces at night.

In the Forbidden City of Beijing, thousands of miles away, Lin Daxin has been paying attention to the battle of Ufa City, which determines the direction of the war, and in order to get the news of the battlefield in Ufa City as soon as possible, Lin Daxin came directly to the building of the Ministry of National Defense. As soon as Defense Minister Wu Peifu sat in the office, the news of the battlefield in Ufa City would be delivered here as soon as possible.

Wu Peifu held a telegram in his hand and hurried into his office. said to Lin Daxin: "Your Majesty, the latest news from Ufa City has arrived, and the Fifth Guards Army, which is in charge of the attack today, has stopped attacking. Switch to a defensive position, preparing for a possible counterattack by the coalition forces at night. In addition, today's losses of the 5th Guards Army and the Air Force were also sent. ”

Lin Daxin immediately took the telegram and read it. Then he frowned and said: "It seems that the news that the Military Intelligence Bureau has just gotten is not wrong, several countries of the coalition army have new types of anti-aircraft guns and new armor-piercing shells, otherwise the tanks of the Fifth Guards Army would not have lost so much, and a small part of the new anti-aircraft guns and new anti-aircraft machine guns developed by Britain, France and Germany have also arrived in Ufa City, and today our air force has lost 11 improved Yellow Sparrow fighters and 5 improved Blue Eagle bombers, and a few fighters are at an altitude of nearly 6,000 meters. Hit by the anti-aircraft shells of the coalition forces, all the previous anti-aircraft weapons of the coalition forces combined, did not reach this height. ”

Although the Allied and Allied forces only possessed four new anti-aircraft guns with a caliber of 57 mm and six new anti-aircraft machine guns with a caliber of 12.9 mm, they had many anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns with a range of about 3 or 4 kilometers.

In order to carry out precise bombing of targets on the positions of the coalition forces, many of the improved Yellow Sparrow fighters and improved Blue Eagle bombers of the Chinese Empire adopted dive bombing, so that the original anti-aircraft guns and antiaircraft machine guns of the coalition forces were put to use, and many of the fighters of the Royal Air Force of the Imperial Chinese Air Force lost today were all hit by the original anti-aircraft guns and antiaircraft machine guns of the coalition forces in the process of dive bombing.

Wu Peifu sighed and said: "In this way, it is not good news for our troops outside Ufa City. ”

Lin Daxin touched his chin and said: "No matter what, we must also take Ufa City, if we can take Ufa City, our Chinese Empire's chances of winning this war will at least double, after all, the coalition army has gathered more than 6.5 million troops in Ufa City, defeated such a huge coalition army, the entire Entente and the Allied countries will be greatly injured, send a telegram to the Sixth Guards, the Thirteenth Field Army, the Fourteenth Field Army and the Fifteenth Field Army, and let their four armies rush to the area of Ufa City as soon as possible. Gather the 3 Guards and 6 Field Corps there and make sure to take the city of Ufa. ”

Wu Peifu nodded and said: "The emperor can rest assured, although the Fifth Guards Army has suffered great losses today, it has also brought very large losses to the coalition forces outside Ufa City, at least ten times that of our army, I believe that Ni Fan and they will definitely not live up to the emperor's trust." ”

Ufa City is too far away from Beijing, and Lin Daxin and Wu Peifu can only pay attention to the battle reports on the front line, and trust the commanders on the front line, as well as the officers and soldiers who attack the main forces of Ufa City, to continue to bring victory to the Chinese Empire.

Lin Daxin asked again: "Are you preparing to attack the fleet of Australia and New Zealand?" ”

After winning the decisive battle at sea, the entire Asian sea area has been completely controlled by the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire, in this case, for Australia and New Zealand, the two pieces of fat, Lin Daxin will never let go.

Australia and New Zealand, as the British Commonwealth, after Britain declared war on the Chinese Empire, has automatically declared war on the Chinese Empire in accordance with the agreement of the Commonwealth countries, and now that the combined expeditionary fleet of the Entente and the Central Powers has been defeated, Lin Daxin can free his hands and prepare to eat these two pieces of fat, especially Australia, which is vast and sparsely populated and rich in resources, Lin Daxin has already regarded it as the bag of the Chinese Empire.

After Australia is occupied, it is completely possible to remove the millions of people above, and then use authentic Chinese to immigrate, and turn Australia, which covers an area of more than 7.6 million square kilometers, into the territory of the Chinese Empire.

So after the main fleet of the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire defeated the Joint Expeditionary Fleet, Lin Daxin ordered the Ministry of Defense to formulate a plan to attack Australia, and beat the rabbits in the grass, preparing to occupy New Zealand on the border of Australia.

Originally, after the Fifth Field Army and the Sixth Field Army of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire were thwarted in their attacks on Islamabad and Dhaka, many people suggested sending a naval fleet and part of the army to attack India from the sea, but this proposal was vetoed by Lin Daxin.

In fact, to be honest, Lin Daxin really does not have much interest in India at present, the population of the entire India is nearly 300 million, even if India is occupied, the Chinese Empire cannot really turn India into its own country's territory, Lin Daxin cannot accept the lazy Indians become Chinese, it is impossible to make nearly 300 million people go away, it is not that Lin Daxin is soft-hearted, in the face of the natives of those provinces in Nanyang, the policies formulated by Lin Daxin are very frightening, It's all about exterminating the natives of the South Seas.

India, which has a population of nearly 300 million, is too difficult to implement Lin Daxin's policy towards the indigenous people in the Nanyang provinces, and Australia, which is vast and sparsely populated, is more attractive to Lin Daxin than India.

Wu Peifu nodded and said: "The fleet attacking Australia and New Zealand has already departed from Singapore three days ago, and it will almost arrive in the waters near Australia today, and I believe that it will not be long before the news of the landing of the Marine Corps in Australia."
