Chapter 1018 The Wind Rises in America (4)(1/2)

King Su Hu of Wei put down the top-secret telegram and looked at the waiting cabinet Prime Minister Qu Xiaolong and the Governor-General Song Kangbo of the Governor-General's Office.

He slammed the telegram on the table and said in a slightly angry tone: "Zhao Guo believes that with our strength, we can definitely stop the local war initiated by Cao Guo.

Most of Zhao's army is suppressing the unruly bandits in the new territory.

We are temporarily unable to support our Wei State in our battle."

After King Su Hu of Wei said these words, he slapped the table with his right palm.

"What will happen to the alliance between the two countries if Zhao State does this?

In this war with Cao State, we in Wei State must be prepared to fight independently."

Of course Wei Wang Su Hu knew why Zhao did this?

Zhao State wanted the war between Wei State and Cao State to last longer.

In this way, Zhao State will not be affected and can digest and absorb the newly acquired territory as soon as possible.

The relationship between Wei King Su Hu and his eldest brother Su Xiong is important, but the interests of Zhao are more important.

He knew that in the view of Zhao Wang Su Xiong, the war between Wei and Cao was a harm to Wei's interests, not to the interests of Wei King Su Hu.

King Su Hu of Wei was able to understand this matter, which made him even more angry.

He believed that the interests of the Wei State were highly bound to the interests of the King of Wei.

King Su Hu of Wei also knew that he must not place his hopes on other countries.

Wei State and Cao State are both located in South America. Both countries want to compete for regional hegemony, so they can only compete through war.

Song Kangbo, the governor of Wei State, said firmly: "Your Majesty, our Wei army is confident of repelling Cao Jun's attack.

If we conduct defensive operations on the inside, we will not be able to defeat Cao's army.

If this happens, all the officials in the Metropolitan Governor's Office will be arrested and investigated.

The country invests a huge amount of silver coins in training every year, and most of them must be intercepted for corruption.

I am willing to issue a military order, and this war will definitely not be lost."

Governor Song Kangbo had full confidence that the Wei army would not lose in the internal battle.

Even if the Wei army hid in permanent fortifications and bombarded them with ammunition, they could still maintain their front line.

King Su Hu of Wei was very satisfied with the performance of Governor Song Kangbo.

Anyone in Wei can be a peacemaker, but Song Kangbo, the governor-general, can never be a peacemaker.

Governor Song Kangbo was willing to issue a military order because he had full confidence in the Wei army.

King Su Hu of Wei smiled. Then he remembered something and specifically said: "You must not use special ammunition.

Even if Cao used it first, we in Wei only need to keep the evidence and are never allowed to use special bullets to fight back."

The Grand Governor Song Kangbo heard the order from Wei King Su Hu.

He immediately stood at attention, saluted, and loudly promised: "I promise that special bombs will be strictly managed and will never be used on the frontline battlefield."

Governor Song Kangbo understood the seriousness of the matter.

The war between Wei and Cao has become more serious.

The empire has already made it clear that it will not intervene, and the empire will not go back on its promise and interfere in this matter.

But using special ammunition will definitely touch the empire's nerves.

The lesson learned from Wu State is not far away. The empire has used Wu State to kill chickens and scare monkeys.

Before the state of Wu, some people could still argue that the empire was punishing people without teaching them.

After the signing of the Jianye Convention, comrade-in-arms countries dared to risk the disapproval of the world and use special bombs on the battlefield, which would inevitably lead to strong imperial intervention.

The empire's previous performance had already drawn rules and regulations.

The major vassal states were tossing within the rules, and even if the tossing was severe, the empire would not intervene.

Once a country touches the bottom line set by the empire, it will inevitably usher in the wrath of thunder.

The Grand Governor Song Kangbo only wanted to ensure that this war would not be lost, and he did not want to cause complications.

He just said not to transport special bombs to the front line.

In some special warehouses, such as the arsenal in Daliang City, a large number of newly produced special bombs are still stored.

The Wei State would never use special bombs in a normal war.

But Daliang City, the capital of the Wei State, is at risk of falling, and the governor's office will definitely use special bombs without hesitation.

Wei will only consider the imperial punishment that will follow if it survives.

The war between Wu and Gui has proven that special bombs are powerful in killing people.

King Su Hu of Wei ordered: "Wei will enter a state of war from now on.

The main job of the cabinet and the Governor-General is to provide services for the victory of this war."

The Grand Governor Song Kangbo immediately marched forward and saluted: "Understood."

Prime Minister Qu Xiaolong said with a serious expression: "The cabinet has already made preparations."

King Su Hu of Wei took away the paperweight from the upper right corner of the table, and there was a document pressed under him.

King Su Hu of Wei wrote smooth pen calligraphy on the document, and he had already signed the document.

This is Wei's declaration of war against Cao.

King Su Hu of Wei handed the declaration of war to Prime Minister Qu Xiaolong.

"We in Wei cannot sit back and wait for death, doing nothing.

This declaration of war was immediately handed over to Cao Guo.

If they don't attack, we will attack them. I really think that our Wei State is a soft persimmon."

Prime Minister Qu Xiaolong excitedly accepted the declaration of war.

When Wei declared war on Cao, war officially broke out between the two countries.

Prime Minister Qu Xiaolong said with a solemn expression: "Your Majesty, the cabinet will send envoys to declare war on Cao State as quickly as possible.

The ministers of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are already preparing to visit major countries.

The Wei State will try its best to win over these countries so that they will not serve Cao State."



September 2, 4358 (1661 AD).

Ye Yishan, Wei's ambassador to Cao, submitted a declaration of war to Cao.

King Cao Li Dazhuang accepted the declaration of war and chose to declare war on Wei.

At the same time, he picked up the phone and gave the order to attack to the frontline commander Liu Yuankui.

The junction of Cao State and Wei State is a dense rainforest area.

Both Cao and Wei placed a large number of mines and other weapons in this forest.

Cao's 130,000-strong army is concentrated here.

On the opposite side, Wei State also built permanent fortifications on the border fortresses, with an army of approximately 100,000 people.

If 130,000 people want to attack a position defended by 100,000 people, this will require extremely heavy casualties.

Liu Yuankui, the commander-in-chief of Cao State, was not too nervous.

In today's wars, it is no longer the case that whichever side has more people can win.

The impact of numbers of people is not as effective as fire suppression.

Liu Yuankui, the commander-in-chief of Cao State, put down the microphone and told the staff beside him: "Our country and Wei State have declared war, and the king has issued an order to order the artillery to fire immediately."

After the staff heard the order, they immediately called the artillery regiments and ordered them to start firing volleys at the Wei army's position in five minutes.

They notified all units at the same time to prepare for battle.

Liu Yuankui held the pocket watch in his hand and watched the countdown arrive.

The five-minute countdown ended, and the pocket watch vibrated slightly in his hand.

The artillery regiments from various places in the Cao State took off their camouflage, and their 120mm large-caliber artillery began to bombard Wei's positions indiscriminately.

Commander Liu Yuankui looked at the smoke-filled scene above Wei's position.

He showed a confident smile and said softly: "The Guards have not yet changed their thinking. Those vassal states in Europe that have only been established for two or three years can launch a large-scale battle.

If we, the old vassal states, are not as good as the new ones, they will look like waste."

He picked up the phone and shouted: "Get me the train gun."

The phone rang a few times, and soon a voice came from the other side.

"Commander Liu Yuankui, the train artillery regiment is ready for battle."
