Chapter 1258: 1259 If you can’t hold on, you can’t get away.

　　It sounds like it should be a **** battle, but the final battle reports written by the Tang Army’s commanders were extremely dull and boring.

Almost all the tank commanders wrote a running account of what was supposed to be an important tank decisive battle: the enemy tanks rushed towards us, we spread out on the selected position, and then opened fire, destroying one enemy tank after another. .

 Later? Then we started to counterattack, rushed over...well, the enemy surrendered. Everything is so natural, everything is so ordinary, everything is so simple.

When the Tang Army's tanks rushed over, the Qin Army's troops did not even escape. They surrendered and handed over their weapons. There were even many tanks there, but none of them dared to fire a cannon to attack so close. The Tang Army’s new tank.

Later, Liu Guozhu and others met the commander of Qin's 2nd Armored Division who was captured by them, and had a rather sumptuous lunch with him. After the two sides communicated, they realized that it was the terrifying combat effectiveness of Tang Army's tanks. This Qin army commander was frightened.

The opponent thought that there was also a tank division in front of him, and even suspected that he had been surrounded. He couldn't contact the friendly troops next to him, and he didn't know where the reinforcements were.

With his eyes darkened, he was afraid that the Tang Army's tanks would crush his troops, so he graciously ordered the surrender and made his troops stop resisting.

Hundreds of No. 4 tanks and Qin 4 tanks were in the hands of the Tang Army again. Looking at those No. 4 tanks equipped with long-barreled 75mm tank guns, many Tang Army commanders missed them very much.

There is no way. Maybe these tanks are the ones they drove back then. Looking at these familiar equipment, of course, it is easy to get emotional.

Many tank crew members of the Tang Army went to touch these old guys they hadn’t seen for a long time, and some of them even exchanged their experience with the tank crew members of the Qin Army...

Everyone got together to complain about some of the problems and shortcomings of the No. 4 tank. It was like a woman's ex-husband and her current husband getting together to discuss their experiences...

But the good times are always short-lived. When the Tang Army's helicopter units began to hover on the battlefield again, and when the Thunder attack aircraft began to attack the surrounding targets unscrupulously, the Tang Army's tank crews knew that they were on the road again.

 There is no other way, just rush forward quickly behind him. If you get there, you can at least get some soup. If you don't get there... you won't even be able to pick up the prisoner.

 That afternoon, Dongqing City, where Ying'an was located, was beaten into a protrusion by the Tang army. The Qin army was not even ready for battle, and its two wings collapsed.

Also in the evening of this day, Marshal Tiger of the Tang Empire entered Pingfeng, and another armored force of the Tang Empire went south and rushed into Shu City.

Once they enter Shu and are controlled by the Tang Army, the two armored groups of the Tang Army commanded by Tiger will have no worries.

They can attack Caili, Imperial Capital, Dongqing at will...but all this seems to be a trivial matter to the Qin army.

 Because Dongqing and the crucial Blackwater Oilfield are now about to fall into the hands of the Tang army. This is definitely not a good thing for Qin's entire strategic defense.

While Yingduo was having dinner, he received the news that immediately made him lose his appetite: the Tang army controlled Pingfeng, and almost all the Qin army's efforts to stabilize the front had failed. He didn't throw the tableware in front of him. After all, Qin State had always lived a hard life, and Yingduo hadn't gotten used to throwing valuable things.

However, he still waved his hand impatiently and motioned to the waiter to take everything away. The Qin emperor walked back to his office and immediately summoned his prime minister Ying Ke.

"The situation is very passive... Our air force suffered heavy losses, and the army was on the verge of collapse... I don't know why this happened, but the facts have proved that going to war against Tang... is indeed an unwise thing." After Ying Duo saw his prime minister, he did not Conceal your annoyance.

Ying Ke was also worried about the collapse of the war situation, but he still gave his objective opinion: "Your Majesty! The situation has collapsed to such an extent, then we have to consider the worst possibility."

"Wang Luo's troops probably won't be saved, so we have to think about how we can still stabilize the defense line after losing so many troops." Ying Ke had actually thought about something before he came, and now he said It comes out smoothly.

 He just paused for a moment before continuing: "Your Majesty, the old capital... must be defended!"

 The old capital Yingke mentioned was actually the imperial capital of the Great China Empire. This is not only an important large city, but also the most important transportation hub in Dahua. It is also an industrial area and a populated area...

As long as they hold here, Qin can stabilize the northern defense line. At least until they win in other directions, they can block the Tang Empire outside Qin's homeland.

"It's too late..." Ying Duo sighed, and handed a telegram from the front line to Ying Ke, somewhat dumbfounded: "Ying'an reported... His troops seem to be unable to safely retreat back to the old capital."

 Dongqing was surrounded on three sides, and it was impossible for the Qin army stationed here to escape. The Tang Army's field maneuverability is much higher than that of the Qin Army. After being bitten, retreating to the wild to race with the Tang Army is undoubtedly a suicide choice.

 Hence, Ying'an could only allow a small number of troops to retreat to the imperial capital, and most of the troops could only stay where they were. Because once they are allowed to leave their defenses, they will only collapse faster.

"What he means is... to risk his life to buy us enough time to strengthen the defenses of the imperial capital..." Ying Duo smiled bitterly. He was proud of having such a loyal and brave general, but he also felt that he had to let such a loyal and brave general go. Death is sad.

　　Although some people are willing to risk their lives to stand in front and buy time for Qin, in fact Qin seems to have lost its last chance.

Ying Ke frowned, thought for a few seconds and then said to Ying Duo: "Your Majesty...then, can the old capital be defended?"

"It's too late to defend." Ying Duo shook his head: "If Pingfeng is still in our hands, it is still possible to dispatch troops to reinforce the old capital... Now that Pingfeng has been lost, the Tang army may go north to attack the imperial capital at any time. We The speed of gathering reinforcements is definitely not as fast as that of the Tang army."

"Then what should we do?" Ying Ke asked nervously.

"Let the troops gather near Wangdu first...see if we can...defend Wangdu." Ying Duo sighed and abandoned many cities such as Caili, Xiqing and Beiku in one breath.
