PS. Today's update is a bit late, but the prodigal son will not break his promise. Today's driver's license subject two test is very depressed, and it hangs up inexplicably, which makes the prodigal son very annoyed, and he starts coding words very late.

On November 20, 661883, the Japanese base camp meeting, in the past ten days, there was a lot of bad news, which can be said to make Japan feel very depressed, casting a shadow on this meeting.

The first is the failure of Japanese fundraising in Europe and the United States, whether it is London, Paris, Berlin, or New York, all of which have adopted an indifferent attitude towards the issuance and subscription of Japanese government bonds. Russia, the only one that "warmed Japan's feelings", lacked economic strength to provide the large amount of loans Japan needed, which forced Japan to rely entirely on its own liliang to sustain the war, and the financial pressure was like Mount Tai.

Secondly, the Japanese envoy to Siam, Otomo Mitsuyue, has sent a telegram to report that through various channels, it has been learned that the Mekong River has been controlled by China, Vientiane has also been lost, and the main force of Siam has retreated from Shangliao, but the rear supply has been cut off, the situation is very critical, and the whole Bangkok is panicked.

For a long time, Japan has placed high hopes on Siam and has continued to support it in the hope of containing China. Half a month ago, the Siamese army was still advancing with great triumph, and the Japanese government and the opposition celebrated with each other's foreheads, believing that China had fallen into a two-front war and that the north and the south could not take care of both. Unexpectedly, just ten days later, the situation was reversed, and Siam was obviously not enough to protect itself, let alone contain China, which made Japan both depressed and lost.

Thirdly, the Japanese army did not go well in the Korean Peninsula, concentrating tens of thousands of troops in three divisions, but still failed to capture Pyongyang, and the casualties in several fierce battles exceeded more than 7,000 people, and the war reached a stalemate, which greatly diluted the joy of the previous capture of Seoul.

After fierce debate, the base camp finally reached a consensus, that is, in the current situation, the purpose of the war has undergone a subtle change, and has changed from simple territorial expansion to self-redemption. Because Japan has been frantically expanding its armaments for a long time, its national economy has long been extremely unbalanced, coupled with the huge war expenses and the lack of external blood transfusions, its financial deformity has become incomparable, and this has made Japan's desire for the fruits of war extremely strong.

Therefore, Japan can only make a desperate bet and mobilize the main force of the army to try to defeat China and force China to sue for peace before the complete collapse of its finances, so as to obtain a large amount of money to save the economy, which will be the only way to save the Japanese economy.

However, before the army can attack on all fronts, it must be confirmed that there are no worries, that is, the Japanese navy must thoroughly grasp the sea supremacy. However, at present, the two fleets have engaged in several battles, and the Chinese fleet has always retreated under the cover of the mine defense belt, so that the Japanese fleet does not dare to pursue rashly, and the war at sea has also reached a stalemate. To solve such a problem, we can only wait for the arrival of minesweepers purchased from Russia in early October, and from Russia to Japan, at the earliest, until early December. Prior to this, the Japanese army on the Korean Peninsula could only turn to defense and dig trenches.

Japan is still waiting, but Siam is already hanging by a thread.

On 23 November, the exhausted main Siamese force had withdrawn south to Vang Vieng, and only a few kilometers away, the Left Guigui Army was already trailing. The Chinese are like a pack of fierce and cunning wolves, following the herd unhurriedly, constantly relieving the pressure, waiting for the laggards in the herd.

The intention of the Chinese is already very obvious, as soon as the Siamese army attacks Vientiane, the two guards in front and rear will come over, and the Siamese army will inevitably collapse at that time. But wait until Chaopaya. Surriwang and the others wanted to turn around and fight Zuo Guigui, but Zuo Guigui immediately retreated north and refused to fight a decisive battle. When the Siamese army began to retreat south, it immediately followed again, like a lingering mosquito and fly.

This tactic made the Siamese shudder, but time was not in their favor, because the supply lines had been cut off, and there was not much food and ammunition left in reserve, and the longer it dragged on, the more unfavorable the situation became.

Zhao Paye. Commanders such as Surriwang, Pannurangjisi, and Vakirus, who had fled from Vientiane, were worried, and after many consultations but nothing could be done, the troops became more and more desperate.

In this state of fearing wolves and tigers, the Siamese army finally arrived at the Vientiane Plain in front of Vientiane on November 27, and the Siamese army camped in the middle of the plain.

After a night's rest, the Siamese army began its offensive on Vientiane. This is Zuihou's fight, at this time the food has run out, if you can annihilate the enemy army and retake Vientiane, then there is still a way to live, if not, it is the end of the world.

In the early morning of November 28, the entire Vientiane City was quiet, and Ma Jinxu stood on the position outside the city, gently twisting his beard and looking at the hazy plain opposite.

Ma Jinxu is a native of Mengcheng, Anhui Province, and his name is Lisheng. Born as a general of the Huai Army, he is known for his bravery. His mission is to hold the Vientiane City until the Zuo Guigui army arrives and deals a fatal blow to the enemy.

The rainy season in Laos has just passed, but the tail flicks are still two more, and the sky is as soft and gentle as a lover's whisper. The entire plain of Vientiane is shrouded in a thin layer of rain and mist, with a bit of serene mystery.

A moment later, as the elephant's foot drum rumbled, a large group of monsters came out of the rain and fog and rushed towards the Mixc, the thunderous footsteps and the beating of the elephant's foot drum were extremely violent.

This is the trump card in the Siamese army, the elite of the "Siamese Division" army, the war elephant regiment.

More than 100 specially trained South Asian elephants, all covered with colorful colored cloth, look colorful and eye-catching, very dazzling, in addition to the eyes and long nose, but also surrounded by two layers of thick rattan armor, plus the thick skin of war elephants, even rifle bullets can not cause damage. Each elephant had four to six infantry armed with Murata rifles, and when charged, it was like a legion out of hell, a heavy army before the invention of the tank.

According to the officers and men of the Guards guarding the trench, for the first time in their lives, they saw such a "weapon" for the first time, and many of them saw elephants for the first time.

Seeing that the situation was urgent, Ma Jinxu waved the yellow flag and immediately killed an elite soldier from the flank at high speed, which was the fierce and brave cavalry battalion.

Braving the fire on the elephant's back, and risking being trampled and rammed by the elephant, these cavalrymen sped directly to the elephant and fired at the elephant's trunk eye at close range. Many were knocked down by Siamese fire before they could get close, and some were even more miserable, trampled into flesh by war elephants.

At the same time, the eyes and noses of many war elephants were also hit. Enraged elephants often lose their minds and collide with each other, even knocking the elephant off the back of the Siamese soldiers, which is also certain to death.

The cavalry battalion paid the price of nearly two hundred men, and finally let those war elephants become a mess and trample on each other.

Then the Siamese army roamed the mountains and killed them. Surriwang and the others finally lost their patience and gave the order for a general attack on Zuihou.

Ma Jinxu commanded the infantry regiment to fight to the death, and the fierce and accurate firepower caused the Siamese army to fall one by one, and the dense corpses were piled up hundreds of meters in front of the trench, the scene was very tragic, and there was a strong smell of blood in the drizzle.

But the Siamese people know whether they are alive or dead, so it depends on this one, and the two main divisions, the "Rama Division" and the "Siamese Division", still have more than 8,000 troops, and they are all on the line.

The dying attack was particularly violent, and the Siamese army was also desperately consuming Zuihou's ammunition, and the light artillery kept firing, even at the cost of accidentally injuring their own people.

Under such an impact, Ma Jinxu gradually couldn't support it, although the cavalry battalion constantly flanked and harassed to relieve the frontal pressure, but at this time the cavalry battalion had less than half of the people left.

Seeing that the front was crumbling, at this moment, a loud cannon sounded, and a series of cannonballs whistled and smashed into the Siamese army, and the left precious army finally came over!

At this moment, Ma Jinxu felt that these heavy cannon sounds were simply the most beautiful music on Shijie!

As the artillery was extended, Zuo Guigui personally led 5,000 elite soldiers and rushed over to the Siamese troops from the rear.

By noon, the Siamese army had completely collapsed, corpses were strewn all over the field, Zuihou's ammunition had been exhausted, Zuihou's confidence had been completely destroyed, and everything was over.

The entire battlefield was filled with the shouts of the Guards, and the Siamese officers and soldiers, who had run out of ammunition and food, laid down their arms one by one and raised their hands in surrender. Some even had the opportunity to escape, but ended up staying as prisoners. Because these hungry defeated soldiers could no longer endure the torture of hunger, they would rather be prisoners and have something to eat.

Only Chao Paya. Surivan and Vakirus fled to the lower Mekong with the remnants of a force of several thousand men. And the commander of the Siamese Division, Pannurangjisi, also died in the chaos. More than 8,000 people were killed in battle, more than 50,000 were taken prisoner, and more than 15,000 people scattered and fled into the mountains and forests. And the casualties of the Guards did not exceed a thousand.

The end of the main Siamese force also represents the end of the Siamese armed Liliang, and all that Chulalongkorn can do is to beg for mercy and pray.

Ding Yuntong received the good news that night, and couldn't help but smile, now he can torture Siam.

At this moment, Zhao Bingjun came in, and according to the eyeliner report of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, "Wu Dog" was dispatched!
