After receiving Gao Shaoyi's reply telegram, the imperial court really didn't know what to say. If they continued to question Gao Shaoyi, even Emperor Taizu would be suspicious.
Although the current imperial court is not like a royal court, it still wants to save face. Even if you want to overturn the words of your ancestors, how can the people in the world be convinced?
Both the emperor and the people from the military aircraft department could only scold Gao Shaoyi half to death in their hearts. In the end, they had to send Gao Shaoyi a telegram authorizing Gao Shaoyi to negotiate with the Dongdi people in Hengfu Port.
Dongdi Palace.
In the past few days, the entire palace has been in darkness. Although the sun is shining brightly outside, the servants all feel cold all over. The emperor has killed more than a dozen people in the past few days. If he commits something,
If you make a mistake, the most you can do in the past is to reprimand, but now you will definitely lose your head.
Therefore, these slaves walked with trepidation, for fear of causing dissatisfaction from the superiors. Today it was time for the imperial meeting again, and basically all the high-level people of Dongdi Kingdom came.
Prince Akutagawa explained the actual situation. The people present were very dissatisfied. We were obviously defeated. After conducting a sneak attack this time, did they think we were defeated?
"How sure is your Army of being able to take back Hengfu Port?"
The emperor of Dongdi Kingdom is just forty years old now and is in the prime of life. He can be regarded as the most accomplished emperor of Dongdi Kingdom.
Before him, Dongdi was also a bullied country and had signed many unequal treaties with Western powers. Now it has not only abolished these unequal treaties, but has also become one of the six major powers in the world, and
Let's go together to bully the Daqian Empire.
And in the war three years ago, the navy of the Daqian Empire was defeated in one fell swoop, forcing the Daqian Empire to sign an unequal treaty. The entire Dongdi Kingdom received 200 million silver coins in development funds, which allowed the entire Dongdi Kingdom to develop rapidly.
.
Unexpectedly, Dongdi Kingdom was in the midst of rapid advancement, and was suddenly knocked unconscious by a punch from a giant. Naturally, this giant was the navy that suppressed the captive army.
"Your Majesty, if there is assistance from the naval fleet, it will take at most half a month to use three divisions to get back Hengfu Port. But now our navy is out of ten..."
The Minister of War looked very sad on his face, but at this moment he was happy in his heart. Isn’t your navy awesome? The last time we were defeated in Haicheng, your navy actually held a banquet to ridicule our failure.
, now that your navy has lost even its underpants, how can you fight against us in the future?
"I'm asking you to do this without naval support."
The emperor of Dongdi also hated the confrontation between his two armies. He originally wanted to let them have a healthy fight, so that the emperor could better control them. Who knew that this degree was not easy to control. There were frequent conflicts between the two armies.
It has reached the point of using guns.
After hearing the emperor's words, the army generals looked a little ugly. If there was no support from the navy, it would obviously be for us to fight for our lives.
Every low-level officer knows that when the enemy's naval guns have the upper hand, we should try our best to avoid their sharp edges. If we continue to attack by force, the number of casualties will be unpredictable, and it will most likely be an astronomical number.
.
"Huh? Don't you always have to be loyal to the empire? Isn't it just an empty talk?"
The emperor's words shocked the Minister of War.
They are just some ordinary soldiers. Dongdi has a small land area, but a large population. If a group of people die, they can still recruit a group of soldiers. Why should we offend the emperor for this matter?
"When we return to the emperor, Wei Chen estimates that there will be at least eight divisions and artillery will be mobilized for support."
The Minister of War already knows the combat effectiveness of the Suppression Army. He has reviewed all the data on the Battle of Haicheng. Currently, there are only more than 4,000 marines here. If we mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops here, if we still can't get in,
It would be damned if that was the case, not to mention that we are fighting in our own country and the other side is fighting in a foreign country.
"Then what are you waiting for here? Go back immediately and mobilize the army to launch an attack on Hengfu Port. I don't want to see enemy troops on our land."
The emperor of Dongdi Kingdom said very angrily that he was called the Eternal Emperor by the people in the country. After all, he had done things that the previous emperors had not done, but now he has also done things that the previous emperors had not done. However,
This thing is a shame, that is, there are foreign troops stationed on the mainland of Dongdi.
In the history of Dongdi Kingdom, except for the foreign troops who came several decades ago, basically no foreign troops have been stationed here for a long time, and those troops also retreated within a year. Now look at Zhenlu
With the military's posture, he has to stay here for a long time. How can he endure it?
"Hayi..."
The Minister of War hurriedly went down. Others did not expect such a result. According to their previous thoughts, they should negotiate with the suppressing army.
If we can circle the war around Hengfu Port, then of course it is a good thing, but will the other party do what we want? Dongdi is an island country. Without the help of the navy, it will be an undefended country.
The enemy's navy can attack any coastal city.
In this case, do you still want to win by force?
Even if all the troops in Hengfu Port are wiped out, the enemy's marines will still be wiped out. The enemy's navy will still be intact. After all, we can't go to the sea to beat others. We have very few warships left.
, when people start to attack coastal cities, how should we resist?
Some people were ready to raise the issue, but the emperor did not give them a chance to speak, and immediately withdrew after speaking.
Several ministers looked at each other. It seems that the emperor was also carried away by anger and was unwilling to admit defeat to the people who suppressed the captives. If this is the case, then we have to do something selfish and let the people at home first
When people transport good things to inland areas, they must at least transport them beyond the range of the enemy's naval guns.
If we continue to stay in the same place, our life's savings may be reduced to ashes. It is said that the artillery of the suppressing army is extremely powerful, and we must be prepared to be attacked by other people's artillery fire at any time.
Taking the wrong path at the critical moment, this emperor...
