Chapter 324: The Decision of Boliva
In shock, chagrin and incomprehension, and his spirit did not completely collapse, he immediately ordered:
"Arrange someone to go to the scene to see the situation immediately!
"The whole city, the whole army is in battle mode, ready to fight!
"I don't believe that Daming can still blow up our entire city to the ground!"
As soon as Boliwa's words fell, a dull explosion could be heard faintly in the distance.
At the same time, there was a chaotic screaming outside the conference room where he was.
"What's going on......"
Boliwa immediately got up and ran briskly outside the conference room.
Outside, the guards and servants were looking out at the hillside in the distance, the edge of the mesa outside the canyon of the city of Boliwa.
At this moment, a fire faintly lit up in one place.
"The stronghold of the Ming Dynasty on the attack platform ......"
Miranda and the other officials and generals had already arrived at the door.
"Aren't they attacking the two barracks uphill, why are they attacking these turrets at the same time......
"So the month of Daming's ceasefire is to prepare for the plane!"
"And how many planes did they get?"
"Who knows ...... this"
In the midst of the chaos, another messenger ran over:
"Your Majesty, the barracks at the entrance to the valley were hit by an air strike, and then communications were cut off......"
Boliva's heart was cold.
The loss of communication indicates that the camp may have disappeared directly.
Probably, the barracks were directly destroyed with aircraft.
This shows that Daming has prepared an unusually large number of aircraft.
It's at least an order of magnitude worse than before.
Boliwa's speculation was quickly confirmed.
An even denser roar of engines could be heard in the sky.
Boliwa immediately turned his face to look in the direction of the source of the sound, and then the whole person was obviously stunned.
A group of planes that they had never seen before appeared in the sky.
The planes that appeared on the battlefield before were small attack aircraft and fighters with single engines.
Their wingspan is usually less than ten meters, and their length is usually only about eight meters
Now in the sky, those big guys with four engines are more than thirty meters wide and more than twenty meters long.
The height of a nine-story building is about 30 meters.
Behind these big guys were several large groups of twin-engine planes with a wingspan of more than twenty meters.
Not only has the number of aircraft increased by an order of magnitude, but the size of individual aircraft has also doubled.
Boliwa and the others around him were stunned.
Stunned, these planes flew in the sky above the empty head.
Once the target is found, the bomb is rained down.
Bombs instead of bullets can also feel like bullets raining down.
Military camps in the city, as well as various factories and warehouses, exploded one after another.
The soldiers in the barracks, the workers in the factories and warehouses, immediately ran out in a frenzy.
The surrounding residents seemed to wake up suddenly, and ran away from the facilities as if they were crazy.
The sound of the explosion reached the ears of Boliwa and the others, and everyone reacted quickly.
"What to do!"
"So many planes ......"
"Such a huge plane!"
"Oh my God!"
"Let them blow up like this, and the whole city will be finished!"
"What are we going to do, Your Majesty!"
Boliwa also wanted to know what to do now.
If it were a normal historical state, when the planes were capable of large-scale bombing, there would have been a large number of anti-aircraft guns on the ground, and there would have been some bomb shelters.
So what should be done is to direct the anti-aircraft artillery to drive away the enemy aircraft, and at the same time let the key people hide in the bomb shelter.
But now Daming's aircraft has taken more than three years and gone through more than ten years of history.
When the aviation industry should have just started, it was pushed to the level of maturity in small batches.
Organizations that have never coped with actual mass bombing, simply do not know how to deal with these things.
There are no special countermeasures in hand, and there is no place to hide.
If you take refuge in an ordinary basement, you may be killed by the explosion.
In a situation of confusion and no direction, the mood of fear can easily creep in.
Boliwa realized once again what kind of monster he was fighting now.
Da Ming is an existence that does not fall behind against the entire Taixi countries alone.
Now as long as you take yourself a little seriously, then you don't have any chance of winning at all.
So, why are they bargaining with themselves?
Why did you have the confidence to give them an ultimatum in the first place?
In fact, what Boliwa didn't know was that even the Taixi countries had not faced the current Ming Dynasty.
Even the regular armies of the Tessie countries will be directly blindfolded in the face of the hundreds of large and medium-sized bombers on the head of Boliwa.
So Boliwa was very lucky......
The first round of attacks by large and medium-sized bombers directly destroyed all military, industrial, and warehouse facilities in the city of Boliwa.
The remaining bombs were rained down on residential areas.
The city of Boliwa was originally small, and before it became the capital of Boliwa, it had less than 60,000 inhabitants.
After becoming the capital of the kingdom of Boliva, the scale began to expand rapidly, quickly exceeding 100,000 people.
What's more, in the process of the encirclement and suppression of the kingdom of Boliwa by the Ming Dynasty, a large number of people gradually retreated to the valley where the city was located.
This has more than tripled the population of Boliwa City once again.
Nearly half a million people live in the canyon today.
The population was expanding too rapidly, and the kingdom's industrial capacity was too weak, and the pace of urban construction was far from keeping up with population growth.
Now in the middle of the valley, on both sides of the river, there are low, chaotic and simple dwellings.
It's like a shanty or a slum.
The remaining ammunition from the large bombers, dropped on the edge of these humble houses, had immediate and catastrophic consequences.
These crude buildings, in the shock wave of the explosion, if they were hit by an earthquake, collapsed and overturned in pieces.
But fortunately, due to the continuous bombing of the planes, all the people in these buildings who can run have already escaped.
Then it turned into a surging crowd and "rolled" towards the center of the city.
In fact, the bombers did not have much ammunition left, and they could not destroy all cities in one wave.
But fear can be more lethal than direct weapons and ammunition.
Dozens of minutes later, hordes of planes departed, but the city completely collapsed.
Until noon, order was not fully restored.
The fear of death from the bombing has subsided, but the fear of survival has intensified.
Originally, Boliwa had been forced to the end of the mountain, leaving only such a valley and two terraces, and everyone's spirit was on the verge of collapse.
I just feel that in this kind of mountain, forest and valley, it is difficult for the Ming people to attack it, and I can hold on to it to some extent.
But I never expected that Daming would still have this way of playing.
Bombardment from the sky, bombing on a scale that scared people to death.
The key is that his city is in a canyon, and the entrance has been blocked by Daming, and there is nowhere to run if he wants to.
Originally, this was a favorable terrain that could make it impossible for Daming to enter, but now it is the other way around.
The whole city has been completely in chaos.
When it was noon, several wounded soldiers ran back to the castle of Boliva.
Explain to Boliwa what happened to the barracks and artillery towers on the mesa:
"Your Majesty, it's over, it's all over now.
"Not too many brothers were killed directly, but most of them were ...... They were all burned alive......
"Da Ming dropped a terrifying Molotov cocktail into the crowd, splashing everywhere like grease.
"If you stick to your body, it will catch fire, and it won't go out until it's burned out."
Boliwa listened to the whole person and breathed coldly:
"What you say is true?"
The soldier wailed and swore to God that he was not lying.
Miranda looked at Boliva with a dead face:
"In the morning's bombing, Daming only destroyed the barracks and factories, and used the remaining ordinary bombs to blow up residential areas.
"If after that...... Daming specially bombed the city with that kind of bomb, and I can't imagine the consequences......
"As is customary, and in our experience, these aircraft can continue to operate for many days.
"I'm worried that Da Ming wants to burn us all to death in this valley......"
Boliwa's self-confidence and pride have been completely shattered.
has fully understood that Da Ming, who has no restraint, crushes himself like an ant.
This is a rebel against the king, and it is impossible to oppose the court of such a big country.
Now all that remains is the chagrin that is extremely strong.
After this emotion had brewed and fermented, Boliwa suddenly stood up:
"I went to surrender in front of the Ming army, I just hope that everyone can survive......"
Miranda was stunned for a moment, and then stood up:
"I'll go with you ......"
The others listened, hesitated slightly, and then several stood up.
Boliwa immediately waved his hand and said:
"Don't mess around, I'll just go myself......"
Then, without waiting for the others to reply, Boliwa ran out of the conference room.
He went to the stable and led his horse and galloped down the river in the canyon.
After about ten kilometers out of the city, Boliwa saw a completely destroyed outpost.
This is the corner of the canyon, so Boliwa has set up a guard post here.
The most terrifying thing about the destroyed outpost was not the remnants of the flames and the black-and-ash buildings.
Rather, it was the occasional fallen soldier that could be seen around.
Most of the clothes on his body have been completely burned, and a lot of skin and flesh have been completely burned.
Some people may not be dead yet and will occasionally move.
But Boliwa knew that these people were no longer alive.
When I walked into the barracks, I saw charred corpses.
Boliwa stayed here for a few minutes, then set out again in despair.
At the exit of the canyon, there was a larger military camp, and Boliwa could not have imagined the picture there.
Fortunately and unfortunately, Boliwa did not see the barracks.
Not long after running again, Boliwa heard a gunshot, and a bullet hit him dozens of meters in front of him.
"It's a threat, otherwise I'm dead......"
Boliwa immediately reined in the reins and stopped as fast as he could.
Rolled straight off the horse, knelt on the ground next to him, and raised his hands in the air.
Soon after, several soldiers dressed in Ming costumes came running on bicycles.
A few metres in front of Boliwa, two soldiers raised their guns and aimed them at Boliwa.
The other two ran over quickly and grabbed Boliwa's hands and pulled them directly behind him and tied them up.
A captain asked loudly directly in Daming Yayan:
"What are you! Didn't it come out of the city of Boliva! ”
Boliwa immediately replied:
"I am Boliwa, I surrender to Daming now, I only hope that Daming will not kill everyone who was founded......"
The soldiers here were obviously surprised:
"You're Boliva? How can I trust you? ”
Bliva immediately said:
"An officer from Daming has come to meet with me, and when I see him, I can confirm my identity!"
These soldiers were scouts at the front of the large army, and after listening to Boliva's words, they arranged for one person to press Boliwa to the rear, while the others continued to move around.
The barracks at the entrance to the canyon, and the barracks on the terraces on both sides of the canyon, had been destroyed by planes.
Of course, the ground troops of the bandit suppression force could not watch it.
Now it's starting to move forward gradually.
While ascending to the fortification around the mesa, let the main force in the canyon advance.
Boliwa soon encountered the main force of the Ming Dynasty.
Then you know that you have made the right decision.
With the current situation in the city, as long as Daming's plane came again, it would completely collapse.
The entry of the Ming troops was a one-sided massacre.
There is no one to stop them now.
Boliva's and Daming's troops staggered through and were taken to the rear headquarters.
I saw Zhu Xueyan again.
(It turned out to be Zhu Xuejian.,But the generation is wrong.,The generation of the Jin Dynasty should be the soil department.,Same generation as the protagonist.,It was written next to the golden word before.,Now it's changed to Zhu Xueyan.。 )
This time, Boliwa did not hesitate, and met directly to the ground:
"I'm willing to tie my hands and arrest it, just hoping that Daming can let my people live......"
Zhu Xueyan looked at Boliwa in surprise:
"Bolliva, why is this so?"
Boliwa doesn't talk nonsense, it is directly a complete and thorough confession:
"Fighting against the Ming soldiers is the biggest mistake in my life, and rejecting the kindness of the Ming Dynasty is my biggest mistake.
"I only hope now that Daming can stop the bombing, and I can make everyone who remains completely surrender to Daming.
"I don't have anything else to ask for other than to keep them alive.
"I can accept being shot, I can accept being hanged, and I can be at the disposal of Daming."
Zhu Xueyan shook his head again and again in disgust:
"You Xiyi have always been like this, afraid of power but not virtuous.
"If we don't move the real thing, you think we can't do anything about you?
"You rejected the kindness of our Ming twice, and you should have killed all of you, leaving no one behind.
"We've even prepared this to completely raze your lair to the ground.
"With the last trace of kindness in my heart, I am willing to survive for your people.
"I can try again...... I ask our Highness for a favor for you. ”
Boliwa breathed a sigh of relief in his heart:
"Thank you, General......"
Zhu Xueyan wrote a note and asked the telegraph operator to send it to Xintianfu and send it directly to Zhu Jingyuan.
Zhu Jingyuan had just received the news that the first wave of bombardment had been completed.
Now the news of the surrender of Boliwa alone in the camp was immediately received.
After a short period of stunned silence, Zhu Jingyuan shook his head helplessly and said:
"This is probably the power of deterrence, and if the power is not shown, some people always have illusions......
"Although Bolivar is not the Bolivar of history, it still has a little conscience.
"Not a completely selfish ruler who did not let all the people resist you to the end.
"After all, he is also a historical celebrity with positive reviews, so I'll give you the last one decent now."
Zhu Jingyuan quickly made a decision and wrote a telegram to Zhu Xueyan:
So be it for the time being, and let's find another opportunity to test it.
Let the troops follow Boliva into Medellín.
Afterwards, Boliwa himself sent it to Dongyi Kingdom, but he was not allowed to bring any property, so he went out of his house to become a farmer.
Everyone else was sent to Panama to open the canal.
