Chapter 123: Do you dare to exchange Shenzhou for Kyoto?
Jiang Hua is still very concerned about the war situation in the northern border.
As for the Northern Frontier? In his eyes, they were just clowns.
This time, a total of nine divisions from three armies were dispatched, including the Second Army of the First Corps, the Third Army of the Second Corps, and the Fourth Army of the Second Corps.
There would be no surprise in destroying Northern Xinjiang and taking over Zhili.
As for the Fuso Army's reinforcements? Just cut off their sea routes.
If we talk about the past, there really is no better way.
After all, the Japanese adopted the method of night-time and dispersed transportation.
Neither the Air Force nor the Naval Aviation had the capability to conduct night bombing.
Now the situation is different.
Because the navy’s first surface ship unit is about to be formed, waiting for the core warships to be in place.
By that time, the Restoration Army Navy will also have strong surface combat capabilities.
As for the two provinces of Central Plains and Jingbei, they must be taken.
If the Southern Alliance dares to make a move, just chop off all his claws.
"Is the Fuso Army's 21st Division ready to defend Shenzhou to the death?"
After seeing the battle report from the front line, Jiang Hua frowned slightly and asked Ling Liang.
“Yes, according to the news from the Shenzhou Intelligence Station, the 21st Division is renovating the entire Shenzhou and building defensive fortifications.
If we attack Shenzhou, I'm afraid this city will become a ruin."
The importance of Shenzhou is self-evident, especially since we have to recapture the territories of Songjiang and Heilongjiang provinces next.
As the transportation hub of the northern border, Shenzhou plays the role of a logistical lifeline.
If Shenzhou becomes a ruin, it will take a lot of manpower and material resources to carry out emergency repairs.
We must find a way to solve this problem.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Hua suddenly had an idea in his mind and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"I see!"
Hearing this, Ling Liang looked at Jiang Hua curiously.
"Send a message directly to that Hatoyama Shinya, if they dare to engage in street fighting in Shenzhou and cause the city to be destroyed.
Then I will bomb their Kyoto and all their important cities.
For every city he destroys of ours, I will destroy ten of theirs.
He should know how to choose."
What he said was to force Hatoyama Shinya to lead the 21st Division out of the city to fight.
At present, this is the only way to save the important city of Shenzhou.
Shenzhou, the former Marshal's Mansion.
A Fuso lieutenant colonel knocked on the door of Hatoyama Shinya's office and said, "General, the Restoration Army is calling you."
"Nani?"
Hatoyama Shinya stood up suddenly and looked at the telegram in the officer's hand with a look of astonishment.
At this time, Hatoyama Shin's first reaction was that this telegram must be a telegram of persuasion to surrender.
He immediately sneered.
"The Chinese are trying to persuade us to surrender, but they are overthinking it.
I will make this city their graveyard."
After saying that, he took the telegram and started reading it.
He was still somewhat curious about the contents of the telegram.
However, when he saw the content of the telegram, his face suddenly turned red and white, and his expression was extremely ugly.
"Tear!"
He was so angry that he tore the telegram into two pieces.
"Damn the Renaissance Army! They all deserve to die! All of them deserve to die!"
Hatoyama Shinya's chest heaved like a bellows with anger, and he spoke through gritted teeth.
The lieutenant colonel asked hesitantly, "General, what did the Restoration Army say in the telegram?"
Hatoyama Shinya clenched his fists and veins bulged on his forehead.
"That's not your place to ask. Go get Takeda Shun from the 21st Division."
"Hi!"
Takeda Toshimasa was the commander of the 21st Division, and the content of the telegram was also related to the 21st Division, so naturally he needed to be called over.
"General, may I ask what may be done for you?"
About half an hour later, Takeda Shunsai arrived.
He has been inspecting the city's defenses these past few days, trying to make use of every building and every street.
Let this city become a meat grinder for the Restoration Army.
Hatoyama Shinya got straight to the point and narrated with a gloomy expression: "The Restoration Army sent me a telegram.
If we engage in street fighting in Shenzhou, causing any damage to Shenzhou.
They sent out their air force to bomb Kyoto, razing it to the ground."
Upon hearing this, Lieutenant General Takeda Shun also widened his eyes, his face full of shock, and then anger and frustration surged in his heart.
"Baga, this Jiang Hua is so shameless!"
They knew very well what Kyoto meant.
Especially for Hatoyama Shinya, he understood the importance of Kyoto to the Fuso Empire.
Kyoto is the cultural center of the Fuso Empire and the place of spiritual belief.
If the Restoration Army had said this before bombing the Fuso mainland, they would definitely have scoffed.
However, with the bombing of Wugang, Daban, and Xijing, it also announced to the world that the Restoration Army has the ability to destroy Fuso cities at any time.
Exchange Kyoto for Shenzhou?
It's not worth it.
Shenzhou is just a relatively important city for the huge ancient country.
If it were placed inside the Great Wall, I'm afraid Shen Zhou wouldn't even be able to rank.
So now there are four paths before them.
The first way is to continue defending Shenzhou, no matter how the Fuxing Army threatens.
The second way is to abandon Shenzhou, go out of the city and fight a decisive battle with the Fuxing Army, and fall on the road of the charge.
The third way is to break out towards Andong County.
As long as they break through successfully, they will be able to evacuate to the Korean Peninsula and be safe.
The fourth way is also to break out, and the direction of the breakthrough is Siping.
Yu Chuncheng joined forces with the Tsarist Russian army to attack the Fuxing Army together.
At this moment, someone made a choice for Hatoyama Shinya.
"Report, General, we've received a call from headquarters, asking you to abandon Shenzhou and break out towards the Korean Peninsula!"
Since Fuso has been notified, it is definitely impossible that only Hatoyama Shinya has been notified.
What if Jiushan is really a stubborn person and insists on dying together with Shen Zhou?
So to be on the safe side, Ling Liang thought he should also send a copy to Fuso.
It depends on whether the Fuso leaders are willing to exchange Kyoto for Shenzhou.
This threat made the Fuso high-level officials feel very aggrieved, especially Emperor Tamashii, who almost became autistic again.
In the end, they chose to abandon Shenzhou and let the 21st Division break out to Andong County.
This also meant that all the meat they had just gotten their hands on flew away, and they also lost the manpower of four divisions.
And it seems they are working for the Renaissance Army.
Otherwise, the Fuxing Army would not have any good excuse to send troops to the northern border.
Now they can only hope that Tsarist Russia can give the Restoration Army a head-on blow.
The 21st Division is preparing to retreat...
But the Eighth Division could no longer retreat.
The Eighth Division put all its remaining forces into the Liaohe River defense line.
They also knew that facing the miraculous tactics of the Fuxing Army, the Liaohe River would definitely not be defended.
But even if we can't hold it, we have to defend it to buy time for Shen Zhou to deploy defenses.
This also resulted in the Eighth Division's troops being suppressed on the Liaohe River defense line and unable to move.
Hatoyama Shinya had no choice but to sell out the 8th Division.
Order them to live and die with the Liaohe River defense line.
Then at night, we took a train directly to Andong County.
The journey of more than 200 kilometers only takes five hours for a train with an average speed of 40 kilometers per hour.
"The 21st Division of the Fuso Army has withdrawn from Shenzhou, and the Fuso Army on the Anyang defense line has also withdrawn!"
A telegram woke Jiang Hua up.
When he saw the content of the telegram, a smile appeared on his face.
"Shenzhou has been saved. Let the 1st Motorized Infantry Division quickly advance north and capture Shenzhou. Then, together with the 11th Armored Division, they will attack the remaining 8th Division. We must annihilate all the remaining 8th Division troops on the Liaohe River defense line within the daytime."
The 21st Division of the Fuso Army has withdrawn and the Anyang defense line has been abandoned, so we can just go directly to Shenzhou along the South Manchuria Railway.
The distance of about a hundred kilometers would only take a few hours at the speed of the 1st Motorized Infantry Division.
It's a pity that the 1st Airborne Division was sent to Andong County, otherwise he would have directly dispatched the airborne division to land in Shenzhou to avoid any further trouble.
"One airborne division is still not strong enough, so let's form two more to form an airborne army."
As long as the navy does not continue to destroy ships, Jiang Hua found that he still has sufficient funds.
However, it was just adding two airborne divisions, which would only take him a few days to prepare.
But with this wave of rapid military expansion, his funds were indeed consumed very quickly.
Just the daily consumption of war supplies requires almost 50 a day.
Half of the more than one million daily funds was gone.
If the United Self-Government Government were to bear the cost of this war, it would probably go bankrupt in a few days.
However, as long as this war is over, the base will be upgraded again.
Then the financial pressure can be resolved quickly.
He had a strong premonition that as long as he could take over the territories of Saibei and Northern Xinjiang, he would be able to meet the conditions for upgrading the base.
Become the first warlord of the ancient country.
The territory of 11 provinces in total: Heilongjiang, Songjiang, Andong, Beire, Guiyuan, Yanbei, Qidong, Zhili, Zhongyuan, Jingbei, and Jinyuan.
The army's strength exceeded one million.
The Air Force has more than 5,000 fighter jets.
The navy will also soon have a combat-capable surface ship force.
Wouldn't this make him the greatest warlord in the ancient country?
He doesn't believe it!
"What do you think, Skynet?"
"It can fully meet the conditions for base upgrades."
Jiang Hua just asked casually, but he didn't expect to get a positive answer from Skynet this time.
A huge surprise enveloped Jiang Hua's heart.
"really?"
"Yes, Commander. If you can capture the above provinces, you will become the greatest warlord of the ancient country and a mid-level commander of the Red Alert base."
"Then why didn't you answer the questions I asked before clearly?"
"Because you have now triggered the necessary conditions for upgrading."
"......"
So that's how it is.
Jiang Hua was full of motivation at this moment, and he felt very anxious about it.
He knew very well how much change the base upgrade would bring.
The Renaissance Army will also be qualitatively improved.
By then, we will be able to crush the great powers militarily.
Of course, it is too early to think about crushing the great powers now, as the ancient country is still in a situation of warlords fighting each other.
After receiving the order, the 1st Motorized Infantry Division rushed towards Shenzhou at the fastest speed.
When they entered Anyang City.
Sure enough, there was no one on the battlefield, and the Fuso army had indeed fled.
Two hours later, the vanguard of the 1st Motorized Infantry Division entered Shenzhou directly, which also meant that the outcome of the battle in Anton was decided.
