Chapter 708 Battle Of Treasure Island (Please Subscribe! Please Ask For Flowers! Please Collect!)
"The Military Commission asked us to reinforce Baodao. After a series of victories, Liang Guang handed over a telegram to Zuo Qingyun.
"Send a report to the Military Commission. Now is not the best time to reinforce Treasure Island. Now our ocean-going fleet is advancing westward, enough to ignite the flames of war to the Atlantic Ocean. If they can start a war on the east coast of Yingjiang, then they will have to start from the ocean. Draw troops on the battlefield." Zuo Qingyun thought for a while and then said.
Now the focus has shifted from the Indian Ocean to him. To defeat them, he must attack Ying Jiang's homeland. This piece of the American-Canada continent far away from the Asia continent gives Ying Jiang enough space to be safe. If the domestic infrastructure equipment is not attacked, the Yingjiang troops can continuously obtain various supplies. Therefore, in order to defeat them, they must attack their homeland.
"Okay, but now Soko Island..." Liang Guang was a little worried.
"Without the protection of the fleet, Soko Island is useless. Tell Guo Weidong that he has to work harder, and tell Admiral Tie Li that he must stick to it." Zuo Qingyun knew that Tie Li was under too much pressure on Treasure Island, but He must think about the overall situation of the battle, and Baodao is not alone, they can also get fire support from the ground troops on the road base.
"Commander Zuo called and told us to continue to implement the current strategy, and we don't need to implement the orders of the Military Commission." An Mo passed the telegram from Zuo Qingyun to Guo Weidong, which made him slightly relieved. After all, Zuo Qingyun came forward, he There is a reason, "In addition, Rael did not retreat, but completely dispersed the fleet. It seems that he does not want to give up."
"Don't want to give up? I just like his not giving up." Guo Weidong said a little teasingly, "How about Baodao?"
"It's not optimistic. They changed their tactics and landed in many places on the island. According to the judgment of the staff department, the treasure island is in danger. In addition, Australia has also dispatched part of the navy to go north. I am worried..." An Yu hesitated. He knew that before Zuo Qingyun issued the order, Guo Weidong almost dispatched all the ships west of Baixiang to reinforce the Gulf of Aden, while the few remaining ships to the east had to be prepared for a possible sneak attack from Australia, and there was no way for them to do so. Soldiers rescued Treasure Island.
"Did Commander Zuo say something?" Guo Weidong's tone was mixed with a trace of inexplicable emotion.
"Commander Zuo didn't say anything, he said he believed in Commander Tie." -Guo Weidong was silent.
Baodao Hengshan Command Post
Outsiders think Tie Li should be sleepless day and night. At this moment, he was lying on a bamboo chair with a relaxed look, as if this war had nothing to do with him.
It's not that it has nothing to do with it, but that Tie Li sneaked out of his busy schedule. Tie Li knew that such a day would come, ever since he learned that Guo Weidong had given a blow to Rael who had invaded India. It's just that Guo Weidong did not expect that Guo Weidong would give Leier a good look one after another, completely denying Leier the opportunity to play and perform, which also caused the expected large-scale landing to be brought forward.
After the Allied forces launched the offensive, Tie Li basically stabilized the situation with several consecutive orders. This made the idea of the allied forces go all out in vain, but Tie Li's concession also allowed the allied forces to gain a firm foothold on Treasure Island. The Allied forces that completed the initial landing did not make too many preparations as before, but accelerated their advance to the town. The reason for this is precisely because the Rael fleet in the Indian Ocean has been in a desperate situation, and the Allied Forces want to encircle Wei and rescue Zhao, thus breaking the siege of Rael.
"The vanguard of the Allied forces has entered Geelong and is engaged in fierce fighting with our army. Commander, do you see?"
"Apart from Jilong, are other places okay?" Tie Li said with some dissatisfaction after taking a sip of tea.
"Since the Allied forces launched the landing operation four hours ago, they have captured ten small towns and islands including Geelong Island and Dafu. Now, Geelong, Yilan and Hualien have been surrounded by the Allied landing forces. Expanding beyond the urban area, the other two fronts are still controlled in the suburbs, but the situation is not favorable to us. It is expected that in two hours, all three places will enter a state of street fighting."
"Two hours, I don't think it will take an hour." Tie Li said regardless of the feelings of the commander of the Baodao theater, Yu Desheng, and the political commissar, Lin Zhibiao.
Yu Desheng frowned slightly when he heard this. He was very dissatisfied with Tie Li's words. You must know that the main force of the Treasure Island Theater is the Restoration Army. Worthy of the title of recovery, and Tie Li is a naval officer, the thinking of the navy and army is very different to some extent.
"Don't pay too much attention to what I said. It's not that I doubt the fighting power of the recovery army, but that the allied forces are too strong this time. If they want to complete the encirclement of Wei and save Zhao, they must create a situation where Guo Weidong has to return to aid. In Eagle According to Jiang’s Ministry of National Defense, in addition to the political pressure of attacking Jinling, seizing Treasure Island is also essential. And only by seizing Treasure Island will we feel fear and worry, so they will attack regardless. "
"In that case, what do you mean, chief?" Yu Desheng asked softly with a look of sudden realization.
"Avoid the edge. Don't they want to seize Treasure Island? Then get out of the way and let them come up. On the one hand, we can relieve the pressure on Jinling; on the other hand, we can preserve our strength." Tie Li said with a smile.
"But didn't you say before that the allied forces cannot be allowed to land on Treasure Island, otherwise it will be difficult for us to hold on? Constantly changing orders will make the soldiers have different ideas in their hearts.
"Of course I know, but there is really no other way. If we confront the Allies head-on in Geelong, Yilan and Hualien, we will be in the arms of the Allies. They will use the sea and air to kill our troops on a large scale. At that time... . . . "
The sudden change in the defense of the Liberation Army made the Allied Forces extremely uncomfortable. After all, this is completely different from their previous tactics of trying to forcibly seize the capital and Geelong with airborne troops, which makes it difficult for them to hit the morale of Yanhuang soldiers in one fell swoop.
The allied troops who landed in Geelong originally had the idea of fighting to the death, but it was not until they were about to enter the urban area of Geelong that Yanhuang's counterattack came late. But the attack was enough to make people ignore it, so that people couldn't feel any idea of resistance from them. The allied army at this moment is like a fist full of infinite anger, but they have to hit the cotton, making people feel helpless.
0......seeking flowers......
Although Yanhuang put on an attitude that the door was open and came in casually, the soldiers of the Allied Army did not dare to have any contempt. These soldiers who have fought against the Yanhuang army several times have long known that the Yanhuang people are full of tricks, and they may fall into a trap if they are not careful.
Twice the streets were full of ruins, the gaps were new, and it was obvious that Geelong had just experienced a war. Indeed, just a few hours ago, there was still a scene of gunfire. Those Allied soldiers who fell from the sky used their lives to resist. It's not that they don't want to surrender, but that the Yanhuang people don't want prisoners at all. if only these
It's nothing to a veteran soldier. But on the streets and on both sides, the bodies of allied soldiers who were killed can be seen everywhere. These corpses still maintain the posture they had when they sacrificed, but the blood has already been drained, and the road has completely turned blood red.
There were only the corpses of Allied soldiers, but no corpses of Yanhuang soldiers. Obviously, Yanhuang left them on purpose when cleaning the battlefield. There are naturally many reasons for leaving behind. Perhaps one's own side attacked too suddenly, resulting in insufficient time to clean up the battlefield; maybe the other party did this deliberately to anger or deter one's own side. However, the meaning represented by this scene no longer requires people to guess. Because right in the middle of the street, a naked Confederate soldier was tied to a cross like a dead Jesus.
This is a blatant provocation, and it can even be said to be a desecration of the faith of the Allied soldiers. This kind of scene often appeared during the Crusades in the Middle Ages, and it was used to teach those who disobeyed the Holy See, or to execute heretics. This is the Holy See declaring its own holy status, as well as warning and deterring those who disobey Christianity and God.
This provocation aroused the anger of many Yingjiang soldiers, and what made it even more difficult for them to accept was that the cross suddenly burned. The soldier who was crucified was instantly surrounded by raging flames. Against the background of the flames, people have a feeling of death walking out of the flames. This humiliation made many devout believers unbearable. They even refused the appeasement of the chaplain and the continuous orders from their superiors, and rushed directly to Geelong City without reason.
When the commander watched his soldiers rushing into Jilong City desperately, a sense of ominous premonition suddenly rose in his heart. But what he couldn't understand was that this premonition didn't appear. The soldiers frantically searched for traces of the Yanhuang soldiers, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't find any traces. Such a result even made the commander wonder if he had made a mistake in his judgment, and the Yanhuang people's provocation was just to vent his anger.
At this time, the entire city of Geelong was suddenly overwhelmed by the sound of gunfire. The Yanhuang soldiers who did not know where they came from kept shooting and killing the Yingjiang soldiers who had let down their vigilance and tried to carry the corpses of their own soldiers. The Yingjiang soldiers who fought hastily could only manage to stabilize their heels by dropping some corpses again, but what made it even more difficult for them to accept was that the two sides fell into a stalemate in just a few minutes of fighting. I, I have an enemy begging. .
