Two days later, the position in front of Holguin was formed. The Cuban political axe army tried to attack once, and after being hit by the fierce anti-aircraft machine guns on the high ground, they prepared to attack with artillery, and just tested the fire, before the shelling of the aircraft group began, the shells on the opposite side were fat, and they killed the thirty 105 caliber howitzers they had temporarily constructed, which made the Cuban political axe army frightened, and hurriedly retreated, and withdrew from the camp 30 kilometers away from the Holguin front, waiting for the master's preparations to be completed.

The U.S. military urgently moved, and a large number of troop carriers dared to forget about Cuba and began to land in Havana one after another. Warships are also congregating here, and the attack is expected to be a day away.

At this moment, Holguín sent personnel to approach the position of the Cuban Axe Army, demanding to meet the leader of the Cuban Axe Army.

Battista was at the forefront at this time, he didn't even hesitate when he received the report, he really wanted to know what kind of force this team was in the Dao, all the reconnaissance sent by his side had no response, there was no news at all, and there was no need to worry about the personnel who might stay behind in Santiago and Bayamo and Manzanillo, I don't know if the liaison personnel were caught or they couldn't find anyone at all, anyway, there was no news.

The other party met suddenly, this was the only way for him to understand the details of the other party, at least for now.

Soon, an unarmed soldier of the Independence Army came to Batista, who was neither humble nor arrogant, and stood in front of Batista without the slightest hint of timidity.

Batista looked at him coldly and asked, "Who are you?" Why the rebellion? What are you talking about here? ”

The soldier of the Independent Army smiled slightly and said: "I am Connatas, a soldier of the Cuban Independent Army, and I have no other intention to come this time, but I want to return the prisoners to you in the spirit of humanity." ”

"Captive?"

Batistan's eyes were weak, and he said coldly: "You know, I can execute you at any time!" ”

Connatas smiled faintly. "You won't, because the prisoners are thirteen hundred American soldiers."

1,300 !!

Batitas was taken aback. He knew that there were more than 1,700 U.S. troops in the coalition army, and the other party actually captured 1,030 soldiers, what kind of combat power is this?

He squinted at the apparently aboriginal Connatas in front of him, who was accented aborigines, and he understood. I really can't kill him, although I know that this guy will put pressure on him, and he may be the key person in the planning of this incitement. But he was more worried about the lives of the 1,300 American troops. That's the master's soldier.

"What conditions do you have?"

Connatas despised Batitas in his heart, and then said: "I think we need an environment for negotiation, and the object of negotiation, without the participation of the Americans, I will not negotiate conditions." ”

"Aren't you afraid I'll kill you now?!"

Batitas said viciously.

"Ha Lu Ha!"

Connatas looked up and smiled, "I think it's worth exchanging the lives of 1,300 American soldiers, but I wonder if you will exchange my lives for the lives of those soldiers?" Know the way. I'm not worth much, I'm just a soldier. ”

Batitas's face was gloomy, and he stared at Connatas fiercely, and only after half a sound did he squeeze out a sentence from between his teeth: "Call Major Harry, the pre-war commander of the American forces here." ”

"Yes!"

The entourage next to him quickly left.

Connatas didn't care about the attitude of his opponent, he started training in the advance army half a year ago, and his personal qualities are definitely a qualified leader, so. He didn't care about these slight encounters at all. After the attendant left, he still stood faintly. Didn't ask to sit down or anything.

Soon Harry arrived, and was surprised to hear Connatas say that he had complied with the Geneva Conventions, had not mistreated the soldiers, and had provided medical care to the prisoners.

This is not a civil organization. Otherwise, such a thing would not have been done. You must know that the natives here are very repulsive to the Americans, or they will not make a puppet government to go overboard, and defeat the Portuguese would have fully occupied Cuba long ago.

"Sir, I think I admire the kindness of your army. So is there anything you need me to do? ”

Harry gave a military salute and politely gave up his seat as he spoke.

Connatas took the coffee handed over, smiled and said, "Major Harry, we really don't want to return these excellent soldiers to you, and then let them take up arms to fight us, but out of humanity, we lack medicine, so we can't guarantee that hundreds of American troops will not be infected and die, so we have to return them." Of course, we can't be unconditional, and we are here to find a solution to the problem. ”

"Okay."

Harry shrugged, smiled and said, "What do you want, you might as well say it directly, and I can report it." ”

Connatas took a sip of coffee, put down his cup and said: "First, I need a formal negotiation occasion, a negotiator who can call the shots, and second, I don't want unpleasantness to happen during this period, our sincerity has been revealed, during the negotiation, the two sides must not fight, I wonder if this is acceptable?" ”

"Yes. But I want to see if there are so many soldiers first. ”

Harry was very crisp, but still doubtful of his opponent's abilities. Are the soldiers of the American army so good to capture?

More than four hours later, Connatas returned to the negotiating site with the ensign who had gone to inspect him, and Harry was a little dumbfounded when he heard that there were indeed more than a thousand American troops and several thousand political axe troops in custody. These people must be saved, and this is the policy of the United States. And he really wanted to know what tricks the other party had to figure out how to capture so many of them? How many troops are there?

So, after asking for instructions, the negotiations quickly reached an agreement, and Harry, as the first to contact the other party, and the highest governor here, took an official to negotiate with Connatas.

To Harry's surprise, the other party didn't want drugs, guns, ammunition, or money, but they wanted lathes and equipment.

Is this going to build a base there?

Harry thought to himself with disdain. The other party is obviously too confident. It is only more than 300 kilometers deep, do they think they can withstand the wrath of the American army?

But Connatas's indifference made him dispel all kinds of thoughts, and bargained while waiting for the telegram to ask for instructions.

Soon, he got a reply, the machinery that the other party asked for was all civilian, only the sending point equipment could be used for military purposes, and he didn't care too much about the chips, so he directly agreed, three days, to hand over the goods in San Diego, and the prisoners in Holguin.

The negotiations were considered smooth so far, but Connatas refused Batitas's request for the return of the prisoners, and did not talk to him at all, apparently only to negotiate with the American army.

In three days, for Dong Ku, those anticline positions can be completed, and those tunnels can be completed. There, he wants to create an impregnable defensive position, turn it into a meat grinder, train recruits and strangle those American troops. As for the Cuban political axe army, those too vegetables are not as strong as the puppet army under the hands of the Japanese, but it is much easier than training new soldiers. That's why he left behind those Cuban political axe troops.

The negotiation was reached, because it was the handover of prisoners, so the United States did not dare to be careless, and it was true that these soldiers had to be rescued, otherwise, they would not be able to bear the domestic condemnation at all.

At the same time, they also need time, and they need time to prepare adequately.

In Havana, two aircraft carriers with six battleships, twelve destroyers, and frigates are all gathered there, and planes are constantly changing places to enter Cuba.

Roosevelt had already made up his mind to launch an all-out war when the army was in place, and to use the excuse of protecting the expatriates to suppress the rebels and achieve the ultimate goal of completely occupying Cuba.

He was not prepared to delay, and at the same time, Panama also sent a fleet and 5,000 soldiers to firmly guard the Grand Canal, so as not to get stuck in the passage into the Pacific Ocean at that time, and unable to compete with Japan for control of the Pacific Ocean.

For three days, it was not fast to say, France, had already been routed by the Germans, and the army was falling apart. De Gaulle fled to England, and France was in a state of apolessness.

The battle on the Ural River in Soviet Russia, which was not known to the outside world, was also advanced 50 kilometers away in three days. The bearded man and the generals did not realize until this meeting that the other side did not have the intention of advancing rapidly, and had no right to attack and strangle, otherwise, it would definitely not be that every bombardment would be a bombardment of the front of the position, and after a few minutes, it would extend for a hundred meters.

The most important thing is that the other side has crossed the Ural River completely, and actually built a defensive line more than 60 kilometers away from the Ural River, and stopped shelling.

All this shows that the other side is only expanding its territory and occupying all the fertile places of the Ural River, and the other side has no interest in those desertified places.

"Bastard!!"

The bearded man was furious when he learned that the other party had stopped advancing and had temporarily built fortifications. It's a bit of a bully. There are at least 10,000 tons of shells these days, just to expand 50 kilometers to the west!

But he didn't know that the Germans had routed the French army, and the Anglo-French army was retreating to Dunkirk. And the German army was actually deceited, occupying the whole territory of France in the world, fighting with an unknown number of troops, sparing the elite army, allowing Britain and France to retain enough combat effectiveness and withdraw to the British mainland.

The German victory would immediately launch an attack on Soviet Russia, which was also the reason why the advance army stopped advancing. This is to give him a respite to force him to negotiate.

Dong Ku has already calculated everything, he is not in a hurry about South Asia, as long as he drags the United States, the rest is not well remembered, Southeast Asia needs time, at least a few months, so for the time being, he is not ready to make other moves, and he can rest assured that he will drag the US military, and he will complete the basic plan.

But in Soviet Russia, he had to take down the supplies there, so he always paid attention to the changes in Europe, constantly gave orders to the dogs, and was ready for the worst at any time. (To be continued......)
