I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 1109 The tide of surrender

The eastern front was breached, the center line was breached, the 7th Division was routed, the 11th Division was surrounded...

Bad news reached the headquarters of the Great Western Army one after another.

At this point, any talk of perseverance would be a bit deceptive.

What's more, this is just a special battle, there is no need to fight to the death.

As a result, the commander-in-chief of the Great Western Army, Juan, issued orders to each regiment-level unit.

Surrender is allowed if you cannot hold on any longer.

He didn't want those innocent soldiers to die in this battle.

Soon, the commander below received this order.

And this order directly wiped out what little morale they had.

Even the supreme commander has said that we can surrender, so why bother insisting on it?

As for what constitutes being unable to hold on, there is no standard.

"Captain, surrender, this is an order from above anyway."

said a junior officer.

He didn't want to go to the front line to command anymore. The firepower of the Chinese army was so fierce that if he was not careful, he would die unjustly under the fire of the Chinese army.

"Yes, Captain, there is no need to continue fighting."

Another officer echoed.

"Order to raise the white flag, lay down arms and surrender."

The group leader smiled bitterly.

He knew better than these junior officers that the battle was meaningless, so he had no resistance to surrender.

Soon, the white flag was raised on the regiment's position, and the soldiers threw away their weapons.

The Chinese army also agreed to a tacit ceasefire and swaggered into the regiment's defense area to receive prisoners.

This scene, at first glance, I thought the two sides were practicing, it was so harmonious.

The besieged 11th Division was the first to surrender, and the defenders in other places also followed suit.

After the surrender, the soldiers did not show any anxiety. On the contrary, some of them had smiles on their faces.

After surrendering, they can return to the Central Plains.

Some of them even have family members staying in the Central Plains.

A seemingly large-scale battle, all the time was spent on preparations, and it ended in less than two days after it started, which was a bit anticlimactic.

The casualties of the Daxi Army were not large, and the casualties of the Chinese Army were negligible.

This battle also completely shattered Li Dingguo's dream.

He knew that nothing could be done now.

Dahua's trend of unifying the world is unstoppable.

As the saying goes, those who follow the trend prosper, and those who go against the trend perish.

If people want to fight against the general trend of history, they will definitely not end well.

Even if Wu Changqing was enshrined as the God Emperor, he overthrew the Ming and Qing Dynasties and followed the trend.

Therefore, after learning the news of the defeat at the front, Li Dingguo summoned Dahua's envoy to discuss specific merger matters.

Merging into Dahua is just a word, but the actual operation is much more troublesome.

He must find a way to appease those vested interests in the country and make those people accept the plan of merging with Dahua.

If those with vested interests are dissatisfied with the plan, they will inevitably cause trouble for Dahua in the future.

After being merged into Dahua, nationality and household registration issues, military reorganization issues, and tariff issues all need to be discussed.

If the army is not deployed properly, it can easily lead to unrest.

If tariffs are lifted, some industries in Onishi will be severely impacted.

All in all, a lot of trouble.

After some discussions.

On December 12, Emperor Li Dingguo of the Great Western Empire announced to the whole country that he would abdicate.

At the same time, the entire Daxi Empire was merged into Dahua.

Some of the original official positions were abolished, the grades of some official positions were downgraded, and some officials were transferred.

As for Li Dingguo himself, he will first go to Nanjing to live for a while, and then Dahua will give him an official position as governor in Europe.

Currently, in the world, apart from the Central Plains, the most developed region is Europe.

The official position of governor in Europe was quite important, and it could be regarded as preferential treatment to Li Dingguo.

Onishi surrendered, and some remaining countries in Europe immediately became nervous.

Seeing that Holy Rome had lost all hope, the remaining part also began to negotiate with Dahua's envoys and entered the final process of merger.

Poland and Tsarist Russia are preparing for war and trying to make a final stand.

They are not arrogant and think they can stop the Chinese army.

They also know that they can't beat them, but that doesn't mean they will surrender.

Some rulers don't mind going crazy for the sake of their own core interests.

In mid-December, the Great China Western Front troops entered the Prussian region and approached Poland.

The southern front troops began to enter the Roman area and completed the handover.

The troops on the eastern front set out from the Great Western Kingdom and headed north to the capital of Tsarist Russia.

After the Third Army of the Western Front entered Poland, it had an encounter with the Polish army and directly beat Poland to tears.

The Polish army was still purely infantry. Marching relied entirely on legs, and only a small number of mules and horses were used to transport baggage and supplies.

The Chinese army relies on cars to march and tanks to fight.

By the time the two armies met, the Polish army was already panting from exhaustion.

Before the war even started, they had already lost half of the battle.

After the Chinese army launched an attack relying on advanced weapons, Poland was directly defeated.

After all, the Onishi Army still has some anti-tank capabilities.

Cannons, and when the Polish army faced Dahua's tanks, they really had no choice at all.

Tens of thousands of troops were killed by one of Dahua's divisions, leaving no trace behind. Almost the entire army was wiped out.

A major defeat awakened the Polish royal family from a dream. They quickly summoned Dahua's envoys and wanted to re-discuss the merger with Dahua.

However, when they started to take action, they found that Dahua's envoy had already left.

Dahua will not tolerate them. It has given them a chance before. Since their attitude was so tough before, they will simply use force to solve it.

Another advantage of using force to solve the problem is that there is no need to protect the interests of the original interest groups.

If those people were willing to cooperate with Dahua's actions and surrender, Dahua would need to protect their property and interests to at least a certain extent in order to maintain its image of clear rewards and punishments.

It's a pity that those people don't cooperate, so Dahua doesn't need to give them any more benefits.

This is also a deterrent to other places that have not yet surrendered, letting other places know the difference between surrendering and not surrendering.

On December 20, in just three days, the Chinese army pushed all the way from Prussia into Warsaw.

Subsequently, the Polish royal family announced unconditional surrender and ordered all parts of the country to surrender unconditionally.

This is really unconditional. Whatever Hua Jun said, they didn't do it. There was no room for bargaining.

If they resist a little, those heads on the guillotine are their role models.

With Poland's defeat, other small places also began to surrender.

By the 20th year of Yongxing, most of Europe had been included in the Great China, and only Tsarist Russia and Northern Europe were still stubbornly resisting.

Because these places are cold, Dahua has not bothered to attack them for the time being.

Only when spring comes, will these places return.
