Chapter 1195: 1196Two traitors and two deputies

  The 3rd Armored Division can be said to be one of the best performing mirage troops in the entire mirage war. They retreated all the way from the South Island to the main island and played an important role in the battle on the main island.

 The entire armored division never regained its full strength. They had a maximum of 101 tanks during the Battle of the Island, and these tanks were all used up in the past few months of fighting.

 Because of their heroic performance, Mirage gave up its plan to rebuild the 2nd Armored Division and gave all the tanks that could be supplemented to the 3rd Armored Division.

Even the 1st Armored Division of the Mirage Kingdom did not wait for their supplementary equipment, but the 3rd Armored Division of the Mirage Kingdom received a supplement that seemed to be nothing.

Yes, on this day, the Mirage's 3rd Armored Division waited for their additional equipment: two Cyric Type 5 tanks. These were all the tanks recently produced in the workshop in the northern part of the Mirage's main island.

  In fact, these two tanks are slightly different from the real Cyric 5 tanks. They have more armor welded on the front and skirts on both sides, making them look more modern.

However, they are still only equipped with the original artillery, and they can only pose a little threat to the No. 4 tank.

In order to make these two tanks more powerful, Mirage workers also installed a machine gun on the turret of the tank, which can be operated by infantry to increase some firepower.

 Under normal circumstances, regular troops rarely modify their tanks on the battlefield, which makes it more difficult to identify ourselves and the enemy and can easily lead to accidental attacks by friendly forces.

 But the Mirage no longer has this concern, because there are only two tanks in the 3rd Armored Division defense area...

  With the addition of two tanks, the 3rd Armored Division could finally call itself an armored force. Otherwise, this division is basically no different from infantry.

Due to the exhaustion of fuel, the trucks previously equipped for this division have been abandoned. Now this division still has some war horses and ox-carts, which can be regarded as a step back from mechanization to ox-horse mode.

 In the past, the entire division basically relied on anti-tank mines, and some small-caliber field artillery such as the 75-gun and 76-gun towed by oxen and horses.

 Such a force can stop several important attacks by the orcs, which is already very difficult. Now the Mirage Emperor is retreating to the north, passing through a defense area responsible for the 3rd Armored Division.

On the day the Mirage Emperor left, the Orc troops, under the cover of three No. 4 assault guns, captured a factory in the west of the Mirage City. The place had been bombed into ruins, but it was actually located on the outskirts of the Mirage City. It is said that the orcs once again invaded the suburbs of Mirage City on this day.

The Mirage Army once again launched a desperate counterattack, but this time they failed to recapture the factory. The mirage army dropped more than 300 corpses outside the factory, but in the end they did not drive the orcs in the factory ruins back into the wilderness.

 It was on this day that the urban street fighting in Mirage City officially started. The Orcs' 8th Infantry Division launched another attack, capturing several buildings and building ruins near the factory and consolidating their forward position.

The Orcs then bombarded the surrounding neighborhoods, blowing some unsightly buildings to the ground. With the strong barricade, the goblins defended tenaciously, and a fierce battle broke out nearby.

 A large number of troops were invested on both sides, and the battle lasted from day to dawn the next day. In the end, the goblins gave up their counterattack, the positions of both sides were fixed, and the battlefield became calm again.

This was not the fiercest battle of the day, because in the northern area of ​​the Mirage City, a fierce battle broke out between the Mirage 1st Armored Division and the Orc 1st Armored Division.

 9 Ork Panzer IV tanks were destroyed, and the Mirage Army lost 11 tanks of various types. From a quantitative point of view, the losses on both sides seem to be similar.

However, the mirage army's tactics are similar to sneak attacks. They hide their tanks in the fortifications and wait for the orc troops to approach before opening fire. This tactic has caused a lot of trouble for the orcs.

 But because the goblin tanks can no longer be effectively replenished, even if they continue to replace one with another, the orc troops will obviously have an advantage.

After losing 11 tanks, the Goblin 1st Armored Division had to retreat again, and finally stopped reluctantly with its back to Mirage City.

The Mirage's 3rd Armored Division was subsequently compressed to the outskirts of the city. The roads and railways they were holding on to were given up. The Mirage's communication with the outside world was almost completely cut off that night.

Due to time constraints, only some small roads were still passable. The orc troops had just arrived and had just begun to build a defensive line, so they did not have the energy to take care of the narrow paths that could not be used by many people.

As for the mirage army, except for some nobles of the mirage country who had the courage to find connections to leave the mirage city and family members of the army, no one took these trails.

  Supplies have long been unable to be transported. Even if they can be transported, there are not enough materials to transport, so these small roads are even more unavailable. Now the only thing that the Mirage defenders in the Mirage City can count on is the negotiations being carried out by the Lions Empire and the diplomats of the Tang Empire.

 If the negotiations go smoothly, they may still have a way to survive. If the negotiations break down, they may die here.

Lines Empire, In the embassy of the Tang Empire in the Lanes Empire, a group of goblins were praying in pain for a little mercy from the Tang Empire.

 The war has reached this point. Apart from praying for mercy, Mirage really has nothing worth saying.

 The royal city has now been surrounded, and hundreds of thousands of troops have been basically wiped out. The mirage became a refugee and a destitute family, fleeing to the northern region like a lost dog.

Under such a premise, the diplomats of the Mirage Kingdom naturally agreed to almost all the requests of the Tang Empire.

 Including the abdication conditions that the Mirage Emperor had always disagreed with, including the Tang Empire's garrison of troops on the North Island... These terms that the Mirage Emperor had not agreed to in the past have now been agreed to.

A goblin diplomat from the Mirage Kingdom felt extremely humiliated when mentioning these terms. He said with tears in his eyes: "The Mirage Emperor has agreed to all your demands, but he hopes to absolve Mirage Wu Ke and Mirage Dabo and others of their guilt... "

This condition was put forward by the Mirage Emperor. He felt that he had agreed to all the conditions of the Tang Empire. It should not be difficult for the Tang Empire to let a few people go.

But who knew that the Tang Empire would really refuse to give in. The ambassador to the Lions Empire shook his head and objected: "It is a pity that we cannot agree to this condition. The culprits who used landmines and sea mines must be brought to justice. This is our responsibility." persist in."

"The Mirage Emperor who used mines and landmines has already been punished!" The diplomat of the Mirage Kingdom gritted his teeth and emphasized: "He is also a supporter of the use of landmines! The Mirage Emperor was bewitched by him..."

An official from the Tang Empire interrupted the other party and asked: "What about Mirage? As an army general, he must have agreed. Why do you think he can escape justice?"

"Sir! His Majesty the Mirage just wants to retain a few people he trusts. Isn't this okay?" The goblin knew that there would be no benefit in getting entangled in this issue, so he played the emotional card.

 It is nothing more than the lives of a few people. From the perspective of national interests, the lives of a few people are of no consequence at all! The goblins felt that there was no need for the Tang Empire to be so fussy.

Who would have thought that the Tang Empire would actually mention a name that made the goblins gnash their teeth with hatred: "Mirage Wuxiong is a trustworthy person. His ability to work in the Tang Empire is quite outstanding and he is a very good management talent."

You must know that for a long time in the past, the **** name Mirage Bear was synonymous with shame in Mirage Country. The Mirage Emperor was unwilling to mention this traitor at all, and would become irritated and furious every time he mentioned this person.

But now, the Tang Empire is planning to let the Mirage Bear return to the North Island and serve as the "chief" of the Mirage Kingdom, or the North Island. This is simply a humiliation to all goblins.

“…” When the envoys from the Tang Empire said this name, the goblin diplomats didn’t know what to say for a moment. They instinctively thought of another name: Mirage Wenmao!

These two **** goblin traitors are indistinguishable. They are both **** who have brought trouble to the goblins and brought disaster to the Mirage Kingdom! Now that Mirage Wuxiong is back, Mirage Wenmao will definitely come back too!

Sure enough, the Tang Empire was talking about Mirage Wenmao again, and was planning to let him stand on an equal footing with Mirage Wuxiong! With the two of them, the Mirage Emperor...is basically just a puppet.

Therefore, the goblin was almost crying, and begged with choked sobs: "Please have mercy on the Tang Empire and leave a few of the Mirage Emperor's confidants to give this former king the last bit of dignity."

The officials of the Tang Dynasty, who felt that this kind of issue could be discussed, finally gave a plan that they thought was a compromise: "Let's do this, Mirage Wuke must die, Mirage Dabo must also die... Mr. Mirage Wenxin, we I think it’s not bad, I believe he should not be involved in these conspiracies. We agree in principle to let him serve as Mirage Wenmao’s deputy.”

This is equivalent to killing all the current military and political leaders of the Mirage Kingdom and replacing them with those appointed by the Tang Empire. As for the deputy... we can arrange someone from the Mirage Emperor, so that we can check and balance each other.

The diplomats of the Tang Empire continued to give their conditions: "As for military generals, we can also ask you to arrange for someone to attack the Mirage Bear. What do you think? This is our maximum concession."

"I will bring your concessions back to His Majesty the Mirage Emperor..." Several goblin diplomats looked at me and I looked at you, and finally decided to go back and send a telegram to discuss it with the Mirage Emperor.

The Mirage Emperor's reply will inevitably be deciphered, and the other party's bottom line is also known to Datang. Therefore, Datang's officials were not in a hurry and stood up to see off the guests: "Then let's stop here this time."
