Age of Conquest Reborn
Chapter 1501 The night of escape
At about six o'clock in the afternoon on May 24, Tang Qiuli, who had moved the battle headquarters to Jamshedpur, was leisurely admiring the scenery here. In the gentle evening wind, his feet were walking
, is already the land of the interior of India.
Undoubtedly, Tang Qiuli was in an extremely happy mood at this time. After eliminating the main force of the Indian army in East India and northern Myanmar, his own troops no longer had any opponents to resist in the interior of India.
The advancing speed of the troops proved this. The current results were achieved with minimal casualties, which even surprised him.
Tang Qiuli even had such an idea, why not take this opportunity to solve all the British power in the South Asian subcontinent in one fell swoop and bring this rich and vast land into the Chinese territory. Perhaps, it will no longer exist in the future.
That restless Asan country that often challenges China.
However, Tang Qiuli is wise and rational. With the current strength of the army, he can definitely swallow the South Asian subcontinent. However, it is easy to swallow and difficult to digest. If you are not careful, the Indian continent will become a quagmire that is difficult to escape from.
, all your energy will be trapped here.
Also, can the Americans monopolize the South Asian subcontinent before their own eyes? According to the usual American approach, it is obviously impossible. Including the Indochina Peninsula, it is a dizzyingly vast land that everyone would be jealous of.
In order to curb the rise of the Chinese, the Americans could even compromise with the Japanese, lose some of their interests, and join forces to deal with themselves. Tang Qiuli believed that Americans would do this based on his understanding of Americans in later generations. That extreme
A selfish country can use anything as a bargaining chip for its own benefit.
In Southeast Asia, there are two powerful opponents at the same time. It is definitely not a blessing for the Japanese and the Japanese. What's more, the Japanese, the Chinese's feud, even sleeps thinking about how to kill him. The Americans secretly look at each other, and the Japanese
He was happy to wink back, and they hit it off immediately. Then his own problem arose.
Forget it, enough is enough. The painstaking overall layout and the entire Southeast Asia strategic concept cannot be affected by greed. After all, the strategic center of the Japanese Army is still in the Indochina Peninsula and Southeast Asia. The main enemy is still Japan.
people.
Tang Qiuli retracted his distant thoughts and turned his attention to Jamshedpur, a city in the interior of India that had just been occupied for less than a day, because the second-line troops stationed in the Indian Army's Eastward March Corps were in **
The division troops fled after hearing the news before they arrived. The entire city was not plundered by the war and still retained its original appearance.
Tang Qiuli turned around and said to Shan Hu: "Huzi, do you want to see the exotic scenery? Let's put on casual clothes and go out for a walk?"
Before Shan Hu had time to answer, Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe came in excitedly, "Division Commander, good news. I have received reports from all units. As of now, all units have achieved their campaign goals. Lucknow, Allah
Abad, Japurpur, Pumragur, Gonpur and other places have fallen into our hands. It is amazing that in less than twelve hours, we have advanced an average of more than 140 kilometers!"
Tang Qiuli asked with a smile: "Yu He, don't just report the good news but not the bad news. Tell me, what are the casualties of the troops?"
Zhao Yuhe's interest did not diminish and he replied: "Commander, you think too highly of the British and Indian soldiers who are not even third-rate troops. According to reports from each brigade, their troops could not even fight a low-intensity battle."
, have never happened, such as entering
It’s an uninhabited land, the brigade commanders themselves said jokingly, we are at war here, we are simply taking over the city! If we had known this, why would we have to mobilize troops and send a few tanks as if facing a formidable enemy?
Can receive a city!”
Tang Qiuli laughed and said: "Look, are you raising your tail? Without the series of battles in northern Burma and East India, how could they fight so easily now? What about these guys!"
Zhao Yuhe saw it. The division commander seemed to be blaming them, but in fact he was very happy inside. He pulled out two telegrams and continued: "Commander, there is something surprising for you. Xiao Jinshan, commander of the 9th Brigade of the Directly Affiliated Corps
Fang Yuanshan, commander of the 10th Brigade, reported that after occupying Lucknow and Kanpur, their troops continued to march westward, following the footsteps of the British and Indian troops, and successively occupied Aligarh and Agra.
land."
Tang Qiuli was shocked and walked quickly back to the war room. On the military map, he found the locations of Aligarh and Agra. He put his hand on his forehead and said helplessly: "Two daredevils, do you still want to attack New Delhi?
?That is the British home base in India, so they are not afraid of a desperate counterattack? With two brigades of more than 30,000 troops, it is really not easy to go deep into the hornet's nest alone."
Turning around, he said to Zhao Yuhe: "Yuhe, immediately telegraph Xiao Jinshan and Fang Yuanshan to consolidate the defenses in Aligarh and Agra to prevent the final counterattack of the British and Indian troops. No attack is allowed without my order.
go ahead!"
Tang Qiuli's worries are justified. The current positions of the 9th and 10th brigades are more than 100 kilometers away from the main battle line. They are also more than 100 kilometers away from other troops. They are definitely standing out alone.
, according to normal understanding, even if the British no longer have the strength to resist across the board, they still have to struggle when their home base is threatened.
After thinking about it carefully, he still felt uneasy, so he called out to Zhao Yuhe, and then said: "Yuhe, which troops are close to the current positions of the 9th and 10th brigades?"
Zhao Yuhe replied: "Division commander, the eighth brigade directly under the corps and the first and second brigades of the Sulu Mobile Corps are less than 150 kilometers away from them."
Tang Qiuli said: "Order the 1st and 2nd brigades of the Sulu Mobile Corps to hand over the current defense area to the 8th Brigade of the directly affiliated corps and immediately move closer to Aligarh and Agra. Also, order the 4th Tank
, the fifth brigade, the second and third artillery brigades, left the current battlefield and reinforced Aligarh and Agra at the same time. These two guys are really bold. I hope the British can be frightened by them!"
Facts have proved that Tang Qiuli's worries were unnecessary. He also overestimated the fighting spirit and determination of the British, and also overestimated the British military strength. Since the 9th and 10th brigades entered Aligarh and Agra
After the two places, New Delhi fell into panic.
At night, New Delhi, which used to be a bustling place full of music and dance, can no longer see the bustling scene. The streets with huge crowds and busy traffic can no longer see that kind of scene. It looks empty and lonely. Occasionally, a few cars pass by.
, the dust was stirred up, and it was also as fast as sparks, making it appear panic-stricken. The neon lights on both sides of the street were no longer flashing with coquettish colors. Only the street lamps emitted a dim yellow light, adding a touch of vitality to the city.
Tonight is a restless and frightening night for the British in New Delhi. On this continent, the British have lived a life of superiority for decades. The war between the East Indies and the Chinese is far from their own.
It's so far away. Why did the Chinese army suddenly reach the vicinity of New Delhi? It only took about ten days, it was like a dream!
On the night of May 24th, the most talked about thing among the British in New Delhi was how to escape from here, go west, continue to escape west, and escape to New Delhi, far away from the war. There are still many people in the far west of India.
There is a large space for survival, and the Union Jack flag of the British Empire is still flying there. Although the people there believe in Islam and are incompatible with their own God, it is better than being captured by the Chinese.
They are all conquerors. Think about what the British did to the local indigenous people when they first occupied this continent. They also absolutely believe that after the Chinese come, they will be more cruel and thorough.
The reason is very simple. There must be no future troubles for the former conquerors. It is said that those barbaric Chinese have always hated Westerners and will never show mercy.
Such discussions soon turned into actual actions. It was sporadic at first, but when they returned, it became a common move for all British people in New Delhi. They packed up their gold and silver, took their families, took a car, and left overnight for the soon-to-be-fallen city.
New Delhi.
Soon, traffic appeared on the streets of New Delhi at night, and the British hurriedly left with panic-stricken faces, leaving behind their garden houses, villas, factories, large estates and land, and all the real estate they had plundered as colonists.
, even if they wanted to take it away, they couldn’t take it away.
Similarly, the indigenous residents of New Delhi, through the cracks in the simple doors of their homes, watched with gloating and uneasiness as the British, who used to be aloof and arrogant, slipped away like lost dogs, and then began to worry about their own fate.
The Governor-General of the British Empire in India, Sir Pajevasali, was like an ant on a hot pot, circling back and forth in the splendid Governor's Palace. Beside him were dozens of ashen-faced and panic-stricken senior colonial government officials.
officials.
All the people in power in the British Empire in India have gathered at the Governor's Mansion. They are waiting for the Governor to make his decision. However, many of them have already made preparations. They have to send their families and property out of New Delhi first.
In the villa, leave a fully-oiled car and a few loyal Indian servants. Once the Governor has no other choice, he will immediately run away, and who cares about the lives of others.
In fact, Sir Pajevasali was more frightened than these officials. He sent more than a dozen telegrams to Prime Minister Churchill and the cabinet, all with the same content, asking him to immediately negotiate with Tang Qiuli and beg for peace talks.
, this way, it is possible to save part of the land, but so far, there has been no response.
I don’t know what the Cabinet and the Prime Minister are thinking. The Chinese have already arrived at the city. Maybe when the sun rises tomorrow, Chinese soldiers will have appeared on the streets of New Delhi. By then, it will be too late!
