Chapter 1724 1725 A great rout
"Even if I promise you, what about the others? Others will not just watch us surrender." The young officer still wanted to struggle. After all, he had not personally experienced the turmoil in the southern region of the Susas Empire.
He would not understand how terrifying the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who used 500 people to disrupt the southern part of the kingdom, ceded territory to the Kingdom of Susas for compensation, and even almost destroyed the country, was horrified by these old generals of Susas.
"Others? Hey! Tell me, if your commander and I decide to surrender, will you object?" The old general shouted into the distance without any hesitation.
Hearing the old general's shout, the guards standing in the distance chatting seemed to have already known about this, and they all shook their heads: "We have no objection, sir."
These people include the young general's personal bodyguards and the staff officers he brought with him. These people were very cooperative, and some even showed expressions that they should have done long ago.
The old general pointed at the officers and guards: "Look behind you. If you agree, everyone will be liberated. If you refuse... they will send you on your way with dignity."
“…” The young general was silent. He knew that he had to make a choice today.
"Tell me your choice." The old general was not in a hurry and generously gave the other party time.
"I...choose,...are they really willing to treat our family well?" At the last moment, the young general was still a little timid. He was really afraid that his choice was wrong and he would pay an unacceptable heavy price.
The old general answered affirmatively: "Of course, the Tang Empire never treats its friends badly."
“I choose to surrender.” Finally, the young general compromised. He became extremely decadent in an instant, sighed and said: "I will order my troops to surrender according to your arrangements. I hope that the Tang Empire can treat the prisoners of Susas well, as well as the people in the Susas Empire in the future. "
"Don't worry...you will see a better world." The old general patted the other party's shoulder: "Everything has been arranged."
…
A few days later, while the fighting was still fierce near Ironforge, two of the three Sussus Imperial Expeditionary Groups stationed in the flanking mountains suddenly surrendered and gave up their defensive positions.
The 11th and 12th Dwarf armies were caught off guard and were surrounded by the Tang army in the northern part of the mountainous area. At the same time, the other Sussus army was defeated and retreated all the way to the elven border.
The Tang Empire controlled the mountainous area in the central part of the Ice Empire, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and beyond that, it extended its tentacles into the southern plains of Ironforge.
The 3rd Armored Corps, the vanguard of the 3rd Army of the Tang Army, marched straight in, swept across the entire plain, occupied 10 cities in ten days, and almost cut off the entire supply line of Ironforge.
It was only at this moment that everyone remembered how terrifying the intelligence department of the Tang Empire was. Just because they had been standing still did not mean that they would continue to stand still.
In the military of various countries, there are countless officers who have contacts with the Tang Empire. If these people are not reliable, then the armies of various countries will have to be disbanded.
Among the civil servants of these countries, there are countless people who have taken bribes from the Tang Empire and secretly acted as pawns of the Tang Empire. Even in some places, departments such as the police have been penetrated like a sieve. Our internal intelligence and top-secret documents may be sent to the intelligence department of the Tang Empire for analysis faster than they can be issued for execution. In such a general environment, the word loyalty seems to be full of uncertainty from beginning to end.
It's too late to say anything now: the Tang Empire has used a rebellion to instantly open up the frontline situation: the situation has completely collapsed, and everything is developing in the direction that no one wants to see.
The southern area of Ironforge is no longer safe. Ironforge will soon be surrounded. The city cut off from material supplies will soon collapse on its own, and its fall is only a matter of time.
Millions of dwarf troops are likely to lay down their weapons and accept the result of defeat. The coalition forces will lose a powerful country and more than a million combat troops in an instant.
What is even more frustrating is that a Dornish army fighting in Ironforge will also be in danger of destruction!
Finally organized, an army group from the Lions Empire, several main armies from the elves, and other follow-up reinforcements from Dorne... are now all gathering for defense in the northern area of the elven empire.
The entire dwarf empire will fall, and the northern elven region will become a war zone. The Tang Empire's deep strike capability is beyond that of other countries for an era, and the elven empire's industrial capabilities are likely to be severely damaged.
Everything has to be solved, and this is just the beginning. Because distrust is spreading, especially in the two empires of Susas and Lions, it is really hard to even think about how many "Tang spies" there are in their organizational structures.
In the unlikely event that a Sussus Empire troop surrendered and created a gap in the defense line, the Yangmu Empire would probably cease to exist overnight.
What's even more terrible is that the Susas Empire and the Lions Empire, which have been penetrated almost like a sieve, have become the front line... What can they do to stop the progress of the Tang Empire?
Just kidding, as long as the Tang army arrives at Beiling or enters Bunas, the local people will almost all welcome it, right? It was really like eating a pot of milk to welcome Master Wang. The scene was definitely touching and festive.
So, before there was even time to plug the holes on the front line, the Lions Empire and the Susas Empire began a round of purges within the Empire, trying to find the undercover agents lurking in the Tang Empire to prevent similar things from happening again.
As for the supplies that were originally intended to be reinforced to the Ice Empire, all supplies were suspended and were hoarded near the northern border of the elves. An army group from the Lines Empire that was originally preparing to enter the Ice Empire to fight, as well as Dorne's subsequent reinforcements, also stopped in place.
It is impossible for them to abandon the southern part of the Ice Empire, and they will continue to block the Tang army here. Because the Yangmu Empire hopes that the war will not burn to their homeland so quickly... Although Rewind Port is also a homeland, everyone understands what they mean.
The emperors of the two empires of Susas and Lions were very nervous because they knew how pro-Tang their country was. If they really bordered the Tang Empire, their good days would be over.
So, they are determined to do their best to help the Yangmu Empire win this war!
