"Gentlemen, I should have held today's combat meeting long ago... I looked down on these Asians too much before... today... it was my arrogance and conceit that indirectly killed 311 people. Sixteen warriors, so...I need to make a profound review now, and hope that through this meeting, each of us can re-examine this extremely powerful enemy in front of us!"
In the dim military tent, Major General Van Rodeson-Goujean glanced at each officer with extremely firm eyes, and reiterated loudly: "Yes! Gentlemen, you heard that right! An extremely powerful enemy! What am I? I can assure you! In the whole of Europe! There is no army as powerful as the army we encountered today! Absolutely not!!"
"Your Majesty General, I think everyone here has understood what you want to express..." A captain officer slowly stood up and bowed slightly, then turned to look at other officers and continued...
"I believe that everyone here, like me, very much agrees with His Majesty the General's point of view! After all, before today... I had never thought about it! It turns out that war can still be fought like this! I have to say... these Asians... give We learned a lesson...and it was an extremely vivid lesson! Their artillery! It's more accurate than ours! Their muskets! It shoots farther than ours! The most important thing is their soldiers! They are also more well-trained than our soldiers. white……!!"
"Then the general and the captain want to... retreat?"
"Or... we need to send a letter to Congress, hoping that they will reconsider the war with Liang Guo?"
"Could it be that...you want us to run away with our tails between our legs now? Your Excellency, General?"
"No! Gentlemen! No! You have misunderstood me!!" Van Rodeson Gougeen strode forward a few steps, raised his hands, motioning for everyone to be quiet and continue to listen to him...
"We are soldiers! We should not shrink back because the enemy is too strong! So I have no intention of withdrawing our troops! Politics...leave it to politicians...I will send the letter...I will also send it today!" Tell the Congress everything you see and hear! But war! Gentlemen! War belongs to us! It is our mission!!"
"But General... we can't even defeat these one hundred people... how can we deal with the tens of thousands of soldiers behind them?"
"Yes... General! Although I don't want to withdraw our troops, but in this war... we really have no chance of winning..."
"You are afraid of fighting! It is a cowardly performance! You should all be sent to a military court!!"
"What did you say? Lieutenant Hutos! Didn't you see the tragedy today!? We sacrificed 316 soldiers! But we didn't even touch the opponent's defense line...!"
"So you are just going to run away!? Coward!! Coward!!"
"Am I a coward? Take a good look at my eye!! I led my army to charge forward today!! My eye is completely blind!! I don't want you to follow in my footsteps! !!Lieutenant Hutos!!”
"That's enough——!!!"
Major General Van Rodeson Gurang gritted his teeth and roared loudly...
"Where's your gentlemanly spirit!! A meaningless quarrel like this! What difference does it make between us and the homeless people on the street!! Please maintain your dignity! Dear officers!! Difficulties on the battlefield... after all... It is up to us officers to overcome it! Even if we know we will lose! We must try our best to gain more 'chips' for the country at the negotiation table!!"
After the major general's angry roar, the military tent... became quiet again...
"Ensign Doron! Ensign Soveran!! I have two letters here! One! It is to be delivered to General Toyotomi Hideyoshi of Osaka Castle! And the other is to be delivered to my fleet commander! Da
Major Rens! You set off immediately! Rush to Shangmao Port! Our fleet should arrive at Shangmao Port early tomorrow morning!"
"yes!"
"Yes! Your Majesty General!"
The two young officers stood up, took the envelope, and strode out of the military tent.
"Your Majesty General...do you have a new plan?"
Chief of Staff Barry Kevins, who had not spoken until now, also stood up, his face full of excitement! After witnessing today's battle, he, the Chief of Staff, really couldn't think of any better way.
To deal with the enemy, at this time, the general took the initiative to stand up and take on all the responsibilities. This made him feel ashamed and at the same time very grateful to the other party.
"After all, I am the commander-in-chief, chief of staff, and this is exactly what I should do!" Van Rodeson Gurang obviously understood the gratitude in the other person's eyes, and waved his hand, motioning for him to sit down, and then said
He continued to say in a deep voice: "After today's battle, this group of Asians not only defeated me, but also taught me a truth! That is to win! We can do whatever it takes!"
"Then can you tell us what the purpose of these two letters is? General?"
"Secret! Captain! This is a secret! I can only say... all my arrangements now are to allow the Netherlands to avoid greater losses, and... to bring all the bargaining chips on the negotiation table back to us
On the table! Now, what time is it now?" Van Rodeson Gujean said as he took out the pocket watch in the lining and took a look...
"It's five forty-five in the afternoon...there are still three hours left, and it will be completely dark...my friends..." www.81zw.????m
"It's dark...? Could it be! Are you going to break our war regulations in Europe and launch an attack on the enemy at night!?"
"Yes! You are right! Lieutenant! But as you said... that is our war regulations in Europe! It is not our taboo in Asia!! And... I plan to move all infantry regiments,
All spread out! Attack the camp together from different directions!!"
"But...this is not what our soldiers are good at...Your Majesty General..."
"Then learn! Then explore!! Then start from today!! Maybe... you will fail! But the feasibility of this fighting method! We will test it in this battle!! Don't forget our
Advantage!! Our number is more than ten times that of the opponent! If we want to obtain weapons as powerful as theirs! We must first eliminate this hundred-man team! Take the weapons from their hands! Bring them back to Europa!! Bring them back
