Chapter 770: Heart-wrenching
Sitting on the deck of the Zhenyuan ship, behind him is the front main gun thicker than a telephone pole. The snow-white dining table is lined with silver tableware, and the mirror-like tableware reflects the blue sky and white clouds, and you can tell that it is a high-end product at a glance. As far as the eye can see, the city of Colombo, with a large banner in black letters on a red background erected on a high cliff.
Li Xiao and Yuan Chonghuan sat across from each other, and on the dining table was a huge lobster, three feet long. The hard lobster was as thick as a centimeter, and the hammer smashed the huge shrimp tongs, and Li Xiao felt that this shrimp tongs could eat by himself.
Eat a bite of fatty lobster meat and drink a mouthful of Wuliangye! Sure enough, wine and seafood go the best together.
"Old Yuan! Why don't you eat it? This kind of xenomorph lobster is not often eaten. Li Xiao took a sip of Wuliangye and looked at Yuan Chonghuan in front of him.
Not to mention the alien lobster, even if it is dragon meat, Yuan Chonghuan can't eat it now.
The Battle of Mumbai completely tore the bottom pants of the Second Division, and Yuan Chonghuan, as the commander of the Second Division, was almost forced to pull out his gun and cut himself.
"People are iron and rice are steel, and if the battle is not fought well, people have to eat, right?" Seeing that Yuan Chonghuan didn't speak, Li Xiao also put down the snow-white lobster meat in his hand.
Yuan Chonghuan's ass twisted and twisted, as if there were nails on the chair.
"Teng!" Yuan Chonghuan stood up and knelt down on one knee in front of Li Xiao.
"Handsome! It is my Yuan Chonghuan's responsibility that the second division did not fight well this time, and if you want to punish me, Yuan Chonghuan will be punished. The officers and men of the 2nd Division have done their best, so please do not punish them. There are many veterans among them, all of whom have followed the commander since Liaodong, and they have no merit and hard work. Yuan Chonghuan's hanging head almost hit the deck.
Li Xiao raised his head and looked at the airship in the sky. Pacing the deck with your hands behind your back!
"Ever since the Liaodong army was raised, I have been avoiding the harm of my brothers. You have never been forced to fight to the death, every battle is calculated and calculated, planned and planned. What can be solved with cannonballs, I will never let you trade your life for it.
I'm short of money! But I'm still willing to trade expensive shells for the enemy's life, rather than asking you to fight.
From Liaodong to Shandong, then to the capital to Jiangnan, Northwest, and even the whole Ming Kingdom. You are an old man who followed Liaodong to raise troops, you calculate how many men we have lost.
The Northwest Mongols made trouble, and I transferred the third division, the fourth division, and even the first division of Ao Ye. I only left your second division in Liangguang, Fujian, always thinking that you have fought for so many years, you should also take a breath and enjoy a few days of happiness.
Sure enough, the peaceful years are the grave of the army.
This time in Mumbai, your second division is the closest. So I transferred you, not the second Marine Corps. But tell me for yourselves, what you have become!
If you want heavy artillery, you have heavy artillery, and if you want naval artillery support, you need naval artillery support. Makqin was assigned to the company level, and there were only three battalions on Ao Ye's side. Tell me, what should there be, what do you have in the second division?
The Japanese people are on the periphery, helping you to die for nine days. Wu Sangui hit his head and bled out, so he could be regarded as tearing the defense line apart. You don't know what equipment the Japanese people have, and what equipment Wu Sangui has. People's soldiers eat three rice balls a day and fight for nine days, what do your soldiers eat? Rice, white noodles, and disgusted with rice.
The line of defense is broken, to retreat. With a clear conscience, I asked you to withdraw first, and let the remnants of the Japanese army who had fought to the death for nine days stand in front. Look at your old soldiers, who walk slowly, and when you get on board, the officers have a single cabin. What's wrong? Afraid of seeing people?
If you have a face and want a single cabin, why did you coax it when you were fighting?
In the end, only a few thousand people were left to return, and it was only after they fought to the death that you calmly retreated. What's wrong with giving you a salute? O life-saver! So many strange things to make you salute?
Look at the people, and then look at you. Those soldiers with missing arms and legs, those who are swollen, those who have their faces burned like ghosts, they are like this for you. Are you blind in your eyes, or are you blind in your hearts?
Now you say again, there is no merit and hard work. Now you tell me again, just dispose of you Yuan Chonghuan. Don't punish those blind bastards......! The more Li Xiao spoke, the more excited he became, and finally he looked like a leopard trapped in a cage. terminal
It was just talking at first, and it has turned into a rant in the end.
Yuan Chonghuan's head hung low, and his eyes dripped down his chin on the deck, converging into a puddle.
"Sure enough, it was a loving mother who was a lot of losers, and she protected you wholeheartedly, and finally ended up here. Second Division, I was so disappointed. You go back, the second division will gather and return to China.
Since soldiers can't fight wars, they simply don't want to be soldiers. The glory of the Ming Field Division cannot be tarnished by a group of cysts. All officers and men were demobilized and transferred to their homes, and all officers and men were dismissed. Li Xiao sighed and said his decision.
Yuan Chonghuan shuddered and collapsed on the deck almost unsteadily.
The Second Division of the Liao Army was a tough team with the Eight Banners. Black Mountain, Dahu Mountain fought to the death and did not retreat, and killed four Eight Banner Baylor in the first battle. In the defensive battle of Jinzhou City, the corpses of the Eight Banners were killed all over the field, and Huang Taiji's personal command still could not be shaken.
Such a heroic unit, such a team with brilliant achievements, is about to be abolished?
"Big ......! Handsome! Yuan Chonghuan's chest was tight, and he could barely speak.
"Handsome! The Second Division did not fight this battle, there is nothing to say, but the foundation of our Second Division is still there. Please give the 2nd Division another chance, give this meritorious unit a chance. The officers and men of the Second Division can fight, and the officers and men of the Second Division still have an iron-blooded spirit.
Please! Yuan Chonghuan fell to his knees.
"Can you fight? If you go and see the Japanese soldiers, that's what they call a force that can fight. In my opinion, it is better to summon tens of thousands of Japanese people to reorganize the Second Division. Occupy the pit and don't, just make room for those who can fight. These words were a bit heart-wrenching, and Li Xiao was also extremely angry before saying it.
"Handsome! You said that, I, Yuan Chonghuan, were speechless. The general of the defeated army does not dare to speak bravely, since the marshal must do this, I, Yuan Chonghuan, can only be worthy of the brother of the second division if I die. After Yuan Chonghuan finished speaking, he took out his gun and aimed it at his temple.
Li Xiu, who was standing on the edge of the table, flew up and kicked Yuan Chonghuan's arm.
"Bang!" The bullet hit the shield of the main gun, knocking out a little spark.
"Master Yuan, what are you doing here. My eldest brother is also angry for a while, the second division is the main division, how can it be said that it will be abolished, and it is even more impossible to let the Japanese soldiers come to our main division of the Ming Dynasty as soldiers. Li Xiu kicked the pistol away.
Yuan Chonghuan suddenly wanted to commit suicide, which frightened Li Xiao.
The Second Division has so many meritorious achievements, and it will not be completely abolished after being defeated in a battle. What Li Xiao said just now is indeed angry words.
But now that the words have been spoken, I can't take it back if I want to.
Yuan Chonghuan has already shown his will to die, and he really forced him to death, and Li Xiao couldn't bear it. After all, since Liaodong, he has followed Li Xiao to fight the old man in the world. has followed Li Xiao for so many years, and he has a very heavy authority over the male soldiers. But he has never had two hearts, and this loyalty is extremely rare.
"Big brother! The Second Division has been slacking off in the past few years, but after all, the foundation is still the foundation of our Liao Army. They are all old brothers who followed you and fought all the way from Liaodong. Saying that they can't fight, I'm the first to disbelieve it. Please give them another chance! Li Xiu was on the side to help the second division intercede.
"Okay! Old Yuan, since you said you can fight. Then I'll see if your second division can fight, and now we have only taken the city of Kulombo on Ceylon. Huzi led the soldiers and was confronting the Indian soldiers.
Since you can fight, I'll give you a chance. Wipe out all Indian resistance on the island of Ceylon until there is not a single Indian soldier left on the island. The deadline is fifteen days! When the time comes, it won't be possible, the number of the second division ...... It's gone! Li Xiu's plea just gave Li Xiao a step.
"No! If the Indian soldiers cannot be expelled from the island of Ceylon after fifteen days, our second division will be dismantled. I, Yuan Chonghuan, cut myself to thank the handsome for his grace. ”
