Chapter 867: Results, Casualties, Homecoming

Gong E changed into a formal suit for herself, and Zhu Fugui took a bulletproof car to the White House site again.

There are already special technicians here for survey and planning, and the [Anti-Human Gangs Destruction Memorial Hall] will be established in the future as one of the series of scenic spots of Vermilion Tourism Education.

The bronze statue of His Majesty Zhu Fugui and Li Chunfa's father-in-law sprinkling salt will also be erected for visitors to admire.

But now, it's full of flowers and white flags, and mournful music is flowing in the sky.

Naturally, the mourning music was not played for Lincoln and others, these war criminals had already been crushed and scattered, and they had to exert their last bit of residual heat for the Ming Dynasty agriculture, animal husbandry and fish industry.

What is being held on this scorched earth today is a ceremony to welcome the martyrs of the Ming Dynasty home.

The landing in Ireland a month and a half ago went well.

The west coast of Ireland, which had lost the cover of the North Atlantic Fleet, was practically undefended for the Ming.

The North Sea Fleet, the ace unit of the British Royal Navy, tried several times to break through the anti-ship network organized by Morishita but all failed, and finally failed to cause damage to the Ming landing force in the coastal waters.

The aluminum-armored battleships that cost a lot of money are like big flowers floating on the sea, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are fun.

On the contrary, the British Ministry of Defense inadvertently intervened in the willows, and spent a small amount of money to build a few coastal defense lines, which caused a lot of damage to the Ming Sunset Expeditionary Force.

According to post-war statistics, in this landing campaign, a total of two Erkang-class fast frigates and one Jiading-class gunboat frigate were sunk, seven Jiading-class gunboat frigates were injured to varying degrees, and the aircraft carriers Luzon and Yunnan were slightly injured.

The biggest threat to these ships is not the R-1 airships of the British Royal Air Force that come to deliver heads, nor the shore defense guns that have an effective firing range of 3.5 kilometers after their upgrading.

What really dealt a heavy blow to the Ming Royal Navy was the cheap mines laid by the British.

Despite the fact that the old men of the Ministry of Defense inflated the price several times, the Navy purchased a lot of mines, an ancient and cheap weapon.

Even because the price was falsely reported, a lot of purchases were made.

These cheap but effective weapons caused great trouble to the Ming Royal Navy in the Bay of Donegal.

If it weren't for the financial war launched by the Ming Dynasty and the aluminum weapon version of the "Star Wars Project", which cost the British government a lot of financial resources, otherwise these crazy guys would have scattered more mines.

After all, what does it matter to the Irish fishermen's lives and deaths to their Ministry of Defence?

With the ship damaged or sunk, a total of 330 soldiers of the Ming Royal Navy returned to the sea and died heroically.

In addition, about 17,200 people were killed in the landing combat unit.

Among them, more than 4,200 are members of the Anglo-Saxon Gentlemen's Homecoming Group.

The commander of the homecoming regiment, the only son of Napoleon and Eugenie, and the captain of the Ming Imperial Army, was wounded bravely.

But he refused to return to Yinzhou to recuperate, and still fought on the front line.

In addition, more than 5,700 Irish Yellow Turban soldiers fought valiantly with the slogan "God is dead, knights live forever", and finally died under British fire.

Although these dead were not citizens of the Ming Dynasty, they also had the heart of a child.

Zhu Fugui has sent a consolation envoy to carry 250,000 boxes of instant noodles, 100,000 cans of Paige luncheon meat, 600,000 whips of Shiva, 30,000 boxes of Dahoumen cigarettes and 30,000 boxes of Niwang cigars, accompanied by 170 suona hands, to Dublin to hold a dignified and solemn funeral for these fallen soldiers.

And the other more than 7,200 people who sacrificed, they are all good sons of the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, nearly half of them were Japanese Korean soldiers of kamikaze commandos.

Although the Japanese Koreans do not have full citizenship rights and are essentially second-class citizens within the Ming Dynasty, they are also citizens after all......

Moreover, the moment these soldiers shattered their jade, according to the [Da Ming Law and Law of War], they had already automatically obtained the Da Ming Zhu Ka, and they would shade their families depending on the situation.

Therefore, there is no problem that they are loyal martyrs of the Ming Dynasty.

In addition, there are more than 3,600 Chinese sons and daughters who are in the red roots, and they have fallen on the journey of reviving the Ming Dynasty, which is a chapter of singing and crying.

Although "Qingshan is fortunate to bury the bones of the faithful, why should the horse leather shroud be returned", Zhu Fugui still hopes to let their souls return to their homeland as much as possible......

Well, except for a few Yin warriors, Northern Yin Zhou is not the homeland of most of the loyal martyrs.

But it is still the same sentence, believing that all places in China are homeland.

Zhu Fugui still ordered someone to take them back to Xindihua, and after holding a ceremony to welcome the martyrs home, they would return their bones or relics to their relatives.

If there are no relatives, or if there is a relevant will before death, they can also be buried in the martyrs' shrine in Fengdu.

The reason why Daming wanted to hold such a staged ceremony was mainly because this battle was the most tragic battle in a single battle so far.

Based on the individual equipment of the Ming soldiers, or the calculation of the materials spent by the Ming Dynasty on a single soldier, it is not an exaggeration to say that one Ming is worth 50 Yi and 500 Yi.

Not to mention the gray cattle like the Russian army, the group called Huazi is a little better than the green battalion of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

And the British army, in fact, except for the navy, is a man, and the treatment of the army is the same thing.

The pound went bankrupt all these years, and even the days of the Navy were tight.

Under Zhu Fugui's elite strategy, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty not only ate well and dressed well, but also had equipment far from being comparable to those European soldiers.

Therefore, this time, there were more than 3,500 elite soldiers at one time, and counting the death of more than 7,000 soldiers in the kamikaze commando, it was indeed an unprecedented thing in the fifteen years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, which made Zhu Fugui very heartbroken.

It has to be said that the closer to the British mainland, the stronger the combat effectiveness of the British army.

The combat effectiveness of the British army on the island of Ireland was far from being comparable to that of the British troops in India and Persia.

However, no matter how brave the British army is, under the saturation firepower of the Ming Dynasty, it is still just a mantis arm as a car.

In this battle, more than 85,000 people of the Ming Sunset Expeditionary Force destroyed more than 7,000 pillboxes and turrets, burned more than 300 cars, and wiped out 339,000 British troops in Ireland without taking prisoners.

At present, except for a small number of British troops and Irish religious fanatics who are still stubbornly resisting in the mountains, most of the area has been controlled by Downey Daqu Marshal Xiao Qu Marshal who is divided.

Downey has also applied to the Daming Honglu Temple to establish the Irish Taiping Dao Kingdom on a certain date, and it is still in the approval process.

Therefore, when the fighting in Ireland subsided, it was easier to collect the bones of the fallen soldiers.

At the same time, along the Isle of Man, the British government did whatever it took to lay mines in the St. George Channel between Ireland and England, creating a big problem for the Liverpool raid plan developed by Liang Weixian and Cent.

The former enemy command is currently discussing a new plan to abandon the plan of attacking Liverpool, burning Birmingham, and attacking the city of London, and instead make a detour to Scotland and plough England from north to south.

The benefits of the previous plan were obvious, as it was able to enter London as quickly as possible and force the British government to surrender unconditionally.

But the disadvantage is that it is two hundred kilometers from Dublin to Liverpool.

This distance is certainly not far away, and it is not close to say that it is not close, and it is similar to the distance from Fujian to Taiwan.

The British no longer cared whether Liverpool and other good ports would be abolished, and they scattered a lot of mines in the strait and key ports, and the Ming navy would cause high casualties if it forced landing.

At the same time, it was easier for the North Sea Fleet, the main fleet in the eastern part of Britain to blockade the German coast, to detour through the Strait of Dover and the English Channel and rush to the aid of St. George's Strait.

When the Ming Dynasty attacked Ireland before, they did not reinforce in time, which does not mean that when the Ming Dynasty attacked England itself, this group of naval masters would not be desperate.

And option B, which is to attack Scotland from Belfast, the capital of Northern Ireland, is much easier,

It is only 55 kilometers from Belfast to Scotland, which is a distance that the Ming men can swim over with a basketball.

Moreover, the British have a stronger control over Scotland than Ireland.

If the Irish Yellow Turbans were the king, they could easily gain the support of the local Scottish people.

All in all, the current option of going north to Scotland is increasingly accepted by the command.

It is estimated that God bless America, but Washington this season is already rainy.

When Zhu Fugui and his entourage stood in front of the ruins of the White House waiting for the hero's coffin to return, a light rain began to fall in the sky.

The guard Xiao Zhang stepped forward to help Banzai Ye with an umbrella, but Zhu Fugui refused.

After all, Zhu Fugui has repeatedly verified, and even did not hesitate to try aloe vera juice on the streets of India, and finally determined that he would indeed not get sick.

A little light rain fell on me, and it didn't hurt much.

Zhu Fugui did not wear a bright yellow dragon robe today, or a vermilion or purple robe, but wore a plain slim dress.

The accompanying officials, including Li Banban, were all dressed in white linen clothes.

After a while, there was a sound of snapping and neat steps from the end of the road.

Washington, as the capital of the United States, has sparse roads in the city, and it has not even hardened the ground.

It had rained for two days, and the ground was already slippery.

The honor guards escorting the coffin walked in the Chinese style, splashing huge mud dots and landing on their trousers, clothes, and even faces.

But they didn't realize it, and they still looked solemn.

Zhu Fugui stepped forward and shouted: "Welcome home!" ”

The generals of the Han Dynasty and all the courtiers also mourned and said, "Welcome home!" ”

Β·

A week later.

A certain Huangying cotton factory in Xinshu.

As usual, Song Nanzhu inspected the saw blades, pulleys, gears and other parts of the stripping machine.

This is the first thing she and her sisters do after coming to the workshop every day, and it is also the process that is clearly emphasized in the workshop operation specifications.

There was once a female worker who did not check the machine because of carelessness, and as a result, there was an abnormal noise after the stripping machine was turned on, and she was involved in the machine during the inspection, causing a tragedy.

Song Nanzhu has always been afraid that such an accident will happen to her.

On the one hand, she was afraid that it would affect her husband's future.

After all, damaging such a precious machine is a serious damage to the inner wealth of the saint's son of heaven.

If it is a Ming female worker, maybe there is nothing, after all, the deceased is the greatest, no matter how many faults there are, people are dead, and generally speaking, they will not be pursued again.

But Song Nam-joo wasn't sure if she would be treated like this.

Because Song Nam-joo is different from the other sisters.

She is a trainee from North Korea.

Thanks to Song Nam-joo's uncle, who had been working for the Governor's Mansion for Wajima for a long time, she obtained this extremely valuable trainee qualification.

You must know that working in Daming, as long as you are diligent enough, there is no problem in saving one or two hundred taels of silver a year.

Song Nam-joo was born in a family of merchants, and she was by no means poor among the North Korean civilians, but she was completely incomparable to being a female worker in the Ming Dynasty, even if she was only a trainee.

In the past three years, Song Nanzhu has saved a full 600 Ming Yuan, plus her husband's savings, it is enough to buy a warm nest in this inland city.

In fact, my uncle's expectations for Song Nanzhu were far more than that.

He did everything possible to send Song Nanzhu to Daming, hoping that she could marry a Daming person, it doesn't matter if she is old, poor, or ugly, the key is to get Zhuka.

It's just that others can't persuade others to do such a thing.

After half a year of naturalization training, Song Nanzhu was assigned to the Xinshu Cotton Factory.

Xinshu is actually the original Tennessee.

It used to be a place where black slaves picked cotton.

Now the black slaves have left, replaced by a large number of Japanese scholars.

Here, of course, there is no whip and no torture.

But the labor efficiency of these trainees was much higher than that of the old black slaves.

It was in this big cotton field that Song Nanzhu met her husband, who was undergoing naturalization internship.

He came from the countryside of Hwanghae Province and was an ordinary farmer.

Originally, Song Nanzhu would never come into contact with such a man for the rest of his life.

It was the same Da Ming dream that brought them together.

Song Nanzhu remembered that he picked cotton the fastest and had the most dexterous hands......

It wasn't until the two were about to get married that the man told Song Nam-joo that he wasn't actually going to be a cotton picker, but was going to join the army.

General Morishita's kamikaze commando is recruiting.

Song Nam-joo's husband didn't think his fiancΓ©e would object, after all, joining the army meant a long-term separation, and maybe even goodbye.

But Song Nanzhu did not hesitate, leaned on his chest and said: "Work well for the empire, I will always support you......"

In this way, the daughter of a Korean merchant and the son of a Korean farmer, far away in a foreign land, because the same dream was united.

Song Nam-joo is proud of her husband.

Every time her husband came back to visit relatives, she always smiled and listened to him talk about what he had done and how General Morishita appreciated her.

It wasn't until half a year ago that she first had the idea of hoping that her husband would never leave again.

Because she already has a little life in her belly......

Song Nam-joo was afraid, afraid that the child would not be able to see his father, even if it was one-sided.

Shaking her head, Song Nanzhu rubbed her stomach and waist and began to adjust the amount of cotton seeds to be fed.

Just as she was about to turn on the stripping machine, the workshop director suddenly appeared with an unfamiliar "green uniform".

"Xiao Song, this chief is from Xindi......"

The workshop director obviously knew something, and there was something strange about his voice.

"Director, sir, do you have anything to do with me? My husband is a navy ......" Song Nam-joo's heart tightened for no reason.

"I know ......"

The young soldier said, "Comrade Jin Shinan, a captain pilot of the Ming Royal Navy, is it your husband, right?" ”

"Huh?"

Song Nanzhu was even more flustered, first nodded, then shook his head, "Jin Shinan is indeed my husband, but he is not a Royal Navy soldier, let alone a captain, he is just a kamikaze......"

"That's right......"

The young soldier placed a small box in front of Song Nam-joo, then took a step back and gave her a respectful military salute,

"Captain Kim Si-nam participated in the air raid on Portsmouth on June 1, 15 years of Dewu, and the Thunder plane he piloted hit enemy targets many times, and was unfortunately hit by stray bullets.

At the moment of crisis, Captain Kim gave up the opportunity to parachute and escaped, and drove the wrecked plane to die with the enemy's factory.

According to the relevant regulations, you, as a dependent, will enjoy ......"

Boom –

Song Nanzhu was like being struck by lightning, and she couldn't hear the words behind, she looked ahead in a daze, and a line of tears slowly fell.

Many North Korean female workers in the workshop said that Song Nam-joo married a kamikaze member to covet the shadow of her husband's broken jade, but Song Nam-joo never had such an idea.

When she heard the bad news that her husband had died with the enemy in a plane, she did not rejoice in the slightest, and a great sorrow rose from the bottom of her heart.

Oh my God.

collapsed.

"Ms. Song! Ms. Song! ”

Although the young soldier sympathized with the pregnant military wife, he had to complete the task.

He woke up Song Nanzhu, who was in a daze, "Ms. Song, your husband once left his last words to his captain before the plane crashed. ”

"Last words, what last words?"

Song Nanzhu asked with tears in her eyes.

The young soldier said with a strange expression: "According to the captain (from Guangxi), Captain Jin Shinan asked him to bring you a message before he died, and if the child in your belly is a boy, Captain Jin Shinan wants you to name him 'Jin Gou'......"

Probably thinking that this will was strange, the young soldier hurriedly added, "This is what our political commissar personally confirmed to the navy!" ”

Pointing to the alley on the table, he continued: "Captain Kim Si-nam died in the fire, and only his torn flight jacket was found by the navy, and his body should be ...... Should ......"

With a sigh, the young soldier saluted again, then turned to leave.

'Captain Kim is okay, at least half a jacket is left, at least he can build a well-dressed mound...... The heroes on the sunken ship are the real dead and dead......

The young soldier shook his head and returned to the cab of the military pickup.

On this truck, there is still more than half of the box.
