Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

Mislin shook his head with difficulty. "Actually, I had foreseen this ending before I sent you to negotiate."

General MacArthur sighed and said: "I just wanted to try my best to get some good treatment for the U.S. military, but I didn't expect that the Chinese soldiers' refusal was so straightforward."

"So what should we do now?" Brigadier General Mislin asked, "Should we reject the Chinese request, or..."

MacArthur suddenly smiled strangely, the smile was so bitter and helpless: "Do we have other choices? Have you forgotten the tragic end that Cairo, Egypt, once refused to surrender to Britain? Mislin Brigadier General, prepare to surrender, and then tell the Chinese that I have agreed to all their conditions."

After he finished speaking, he fell down on the chair, and the huge pipe was dropped to the ground by General MacArthur's tired and weak hands...

In the early morning of March 1921, 3, General MacArthur, commander-in-chief of the US Southern Theater Command, announced the defeat of the troops under his command and surrendered to the Chinese army. 25 American soldiers came out of the trenches, not with a look of frustration on their faces, but with a sense of relief that it was finally over, that they survived, and that was more than anything else.Maybe they're going to spend a long time in a POW camp, but what does that matter?At least in that place, they can still see the hope of returning home.General MacArthur and Brigadier General Mislin, who were at the forefront of the team, just walked forward quietly. It was over, everything was over. Their burdens and missions were all completed at this moment, and they did not need to think about it as a whole. How to deal with the Chinese attack, no need to think about how many casualties there will be tomorrow.The expressions of the Chinese soldiers are also quite relaxed. An expected bloody battle has been avoided, and the door to the United States has finally been opened. From then on, they will never encounter any strong resistance on the road to the United States.

Groups of prisoners of war walked past the Chinese soldiers. Occasionally, a few American soldiers slowed down a bit, but the Chinese soldiers were not in a hurry to urge them.The long years have passed, so what is the waiting time?The flying of Chinese military flags on the battlefield in the past seems to be telling the pride of a superpower and a mighty army.Behind this mighty and proud military flag is a powerful country and a powerful nation.

When MacArthur finally saw his old opponent, Chiang Kai-shek, the commander-in-chief of the Longwei Army, although he had already heard about it, he still couldn't believe that a victorious general was so young and full of vigor.Chiang Kai-shek is just like the country behind him, young and full of vigor.With the efforts of a wise emperor and generals, the country with a history of civilization of several thousand years has been full of vitality.General MacArthur suddenly felt that he was not wronged at all when he was defeated by such an opponent.

As the list of American war criminals announced by China, MacArthur, who ranked among the top few, spent 15 years in the prisoner-of-war camp, and spent 15 years as the last batch of war criminals released by the Chinese government. prison camp.On the day he was released, under the dazzling eyes, the first thing MacArthur saw was his wife and children, and standing beside them was his old opponent, Chiang Kai-shek. In the past [-] years, MacArthur felt that he was very old, but Chiang Kai-shek standing in front of him was still so young and full of passion.

At this time, China, as the leader of the world and the defender of the new world order, demonstrates its strength everywhere.When Chiang Kai-shek enthusiastically invited MacArthur to settle in China, MacArthur agreed without much consideration.He was afraid of going back to the United States, afraid of seeing things in that country that he did not want to see.MacArthur was finally hired by the imperial government as the "Honorary Advisor to the Research Department of China's Overseas Affairs" and enjoyed the treatment of an imperial army general.When the Third World War broke out, he went to Europe with Chiang Kai-shek and contributed his own strength to maintain world peace and tranquility.A former enemy of China is now serving the Chinese government. Is this an irony of history, or a change in history?Only God knows the answer.

"MacArthur is undoubtedly a tragic figure. He tried his best to serve the US government and had high military talent, but he chose an inappropriate opponent at an inappropriate time. In the First World War Among them, the United States is growing at an alarming rate, and it even hopes to become a huge superpower in the next few decades. But unfortunately, while the United States is rising, another ancient country in the East is also The rise of China will be subject to the mysterious and unpredictable China. The failure of the southern front is not only a shame to MacArthur, but also a shame to the entire United States. After this battle, the United States began to weaken, but all the responsibility was put on MacArthur, Obviously it is very unfair. MacArthur fulfilled his responsibilities in the war, but he did not have a strong government behind him to support him, nor an invincible army to give him the confidence to win the war. There is no navy, air and army The superiority of the military backed him up. So this kind of failure was actually doomed from the beginning of the war... The war is over. When I saw MacArthur in the prisoner-of-war camp, his expression was very leisurely. His left hand He tasted the Chinese tobacco with the pipe that never left his body, and read with relish the "Review of the American Southern Campaign" written by Chiang Kai-shek in his right hand. He was treated well in the prisoner-of-war camp, and he He seems to be very satisfied with this kind of leisurely life without gunfire and gunpowder. When I tried to interview him, the general refused my request with a smile, and he told me that his own war was over and he was happy to live This kind of life now...Jennifer Zhuang of "China Times reporter."

Not everyone is as content with fate as General MacArthur. At least the U.S. government and all Americans have fallen into an atmosphere of panic following the disastrous defeat in the Southern Battle. It disappeared in a few months.Countless weapons and equipment were either destroyed or entered the Chinese trophy exhibition room.Americans can't find other words to describe the depression in their hearts except shame and fear.Yes, the United States still has more than 100 million troops, but what role can these newly recruited troops play?In the face of the invincible Chinese army, their resistance will only increase the number of victories of the dragon army.

On March 1921, 3, Pittsburgh was captured by the Dragon Army, the same day.Mexico's 31 troops launched a general offensive on the U.S.-Mexico border, and 60 U.S. troops were defeated. Texas, Arizona and other former Mexican lands were successively recovered by the Mexican army.

"Battle of Austria, Secret, and Ming", that is, the battles of Omaha, Milwaukee, and Minneapolis.The entire battle lasted for a week.A total of 5 U.S. troops were annihilated and 15 captured, which again hit the U.S. military hard.

The Dragon's Roar Chapter 110 Chapter [-] The End of the Democratic Era

On April 4, the No.12 Division of the Sixth Army of the Longwei Army conquered Chicago, an important city in the United States, and then connected with Cincinnati, Mansfield and Cleveland.The U.S. government, facing an enemy, improvised an army of 13 and deployed a tight defense around New York. Knowing that it was impossible, it still took chances and tried to fight the Chinese to the death.

On April 1921, 4, Emperor Guan Xuqing once again issued a letter of persuasion to the U.S. government: "U.S. President Johnson, the Congress, and all the people of the United States, after the Chinese government's first offer of great goodwill to persuade them to surrender, regrettably, the U.S. government refuses to surrender. We chose war because of our request. The imperial government and the army have never been afraid of war, nor are they afraid of any challenges. When the Americans choose war, we can only serve each other with war. In all decisive battles, The Dragon Army showed its mighty force. Except for those who died in battle, more than 29 million American soldiers became prisoners. They received good treatment in the prisoner-of-war camp. But whether these people can be released and go home depends entirely on The attitude of the U.S. government. Now, Guangxu, the emperor of the Chinese Empire and the supreme leader of land, sea and air, once again and for the last time advises the U.S. government to immediately lay down their arms and surrender unconditionally. I will guarantee the safety of American property and lives. The effectiveness of this persuasion The time is before May 100, 1921. After that, we will make no more promises. Everything that is American will no longer be protected by us. Time is running out. It's time to make a final decision. To survive or perish, there are only two paths before you..."

In any case, Guan Xuqing's letter persuading him to surrender still caused a stir in New York.Those big capitalists and big chaebols have tried every means to get in touch with the Chinese, expressed their goodwill towards China, and are willing to actively cooperate with them to maintain the financial order in the United States after the Chinese army enters New York.And more American civilians took to the streets in large numbers, demanding that the government immediately cease fighting and strive to rescue their relatives scattered all over the place as soon as possible.

On May 1921, 5, the largest riot in the history of the United States broke out. 1 Americans staged large-scale protests in front of the Congress and the Presidential Palace, and clashed with the military and police who arrived later.The conflict quickly turned into a riot. The rioters attacked the police with stones, sticks, and Molotov cocktails, while the police tried to disperse the crowd with rubber batons and high-pressure water hoses.At the peak of the riot, gunshots rang out from the rioting crowd, killing a policeman on the spot.Police forces immediately called for military support.Half an hour later, a large number of American soldiers with live ammunition came to the scene of the riot.The gunshots from the rioting crowd continued, and after getting the permission of the president and Congress, American soldiers began to shoot the rioting crowd with heavy machine guns.The riot lasted for two full days before it gradually calmed down. In this brutal suppression by the US government, 27 civilians were killed and thousands were injured. This is the biggest tragedy since the founding of the United States.

The U.S. government issued an order to the press, strictly ordering any newspaper to publish the history of the tragedy and the specific death toll in the riot, but how could they shut the mouths of the survivors of the riot?After this riot, the U.S. government has completely lost the support of the Americans. Although organized riots have not occurred for the time being, no one knows when the anger of the Americans will break out again. The "5.1 Massacre in New York" means the end of the so-called "democratic" era in the United States, and the whole of New York, and even the whole of the United States, has fallen into a white terror.

Is it war?is down?This has never been able to form a unified understanding within the US government.Some members of Congress believe that the war is over and it is time to surrender, but the vast majority of members of Congress are opposed to this.The reason why they oppose it is not for the so-called "dignity" and "pride" of the United States, but entirely from their own considerations.The Chinese government has long released rumors that the United States is a “country that lacks democracy, lacks freedom, and frightens people,” and the Chinese government “has a responsibility and an obligation to help the United States build a democratic and free country.”

Not counting these, the Chinese government also said that there are many policy makers in the United States, many members of Congress, they are completely unable to consider for the United States, completely ignore the necessity of peace, these people must be punished most severely, and The Chinese are obviously not joking. Zai Xun, Minister of Suzheng of the Empire, has already arrived in the United States with a powerful team of judges.This means that a large part of the congressional resolutions will lose their privileges and be judged by China, which is absolutely intolerable to these congressmen.

"Gentlemen, gentlemen!" A congressman said impassionedly in the U.S. Congress: "This is a provocation, the most naked provocation against a democratic United States! What qualifications do the Chinese have to judge us? Do they just think that they have achieved victory on the battlefield? A few insignificant victories? We will never accept surrender, and we will never accept such an obviously shameful proposal. This is not for our own benefit, but for the dignity of the entire United States. Since Mr. Washington led the United States to achieve Since the victory of the great Revolutionary War, the United States has never suffered such an insult, and in order to maintain the dignity of the United States, I ask Congress to approve the demand to continue to fight to the end!"

"Mr. MacCulkinson, why do you think we can continue to fight?" Another congressman stood up and refuted McCulkinson's point of view bluntly: "Nearly 400 million American troops are in China and Mexico. Under the double attack of China, we lost almost all of our losses. May I ask why we continue to fight the Chinese? Can we bring victory just by relying on the enthusiasm of McCulkinson or everyone here? At least I don’t think it is possible to become a reality .I don’t know if you still remember the tragedy that happened in Cairo. They rejected the proposal of the British to surrender. What was the result? I don’t think I need to repeat it in detail, everyone should be very clear Do you remember?"

These two different opinions caused a murmur in Congress, and the MPs acknowledged that both arguments had a basis, but in their own interests: they seemed to prefer Senator MacCulkinson's opinion.

"Mr. Minister, do you think it is possible for us to win the defense of New York?" the speaker asked after quieting the hall.

Secretary of the Army Vance stood up, cleared his throat and said: "Around New York, we have deployed 50 regular troops and a large number of militia troops. We are confident that we will win this defense battle. But we have to face For a serious fact, we lack aircraft, artillery, and heavy weapons, which are huge advantages that the Chinese have, and most seriously, we cannot get reinforcements from even one country. The United States, is completely in the Fighting alone. Another point I want to draw everyone's attention is that the anti-war sentiment in the country is very serious now, and the people's enthusiasm for joining the army has completely lost. However, I can assure you that as long as the laws of war are passed in the country, American soldiers will fight to the end Until the last person. When necessary, I will personally rush to the battlefield with a rifle in my hand!"

The last words of the Minister of the Army won applause from the audience. At this time, the military's attitude towards war is very important. The Secretary of the Army has obviously brought confidence to the congressmen. question mark.

The anti-war congressman saw that everyone's attitude was gradually shifting to the opinions of Congressman McCulkinson, and he couldn't help being a little anxious. He stood up again and said loudly: "I oppose, I firmly oppose! Innocent Americans can no longer be ruined." Lives! Gentlemen, please wake up, this is war, not a game!"

The speaker asked the excited congressman to pay attention to his emotions, and then told him to sit down.Said: "Before deciding whether to continue the war, allow me to read a letter from President Johnson to you."

He took out a letter from his pocket, put a pair of monocular glasses on the bridge of his nose and said: "Dear Members, when you received this letter, I have already found the old-fashioned Shotgun, prepare to fight to the end for the honor of the United States. Even if the Congress rejects the war resolution, I will fight with Chinese soldiers alone! 200 years ago, under the leadership of the great President Washington, the United States achieved great independence The war was won, we achieved our glory, and to this day I remember President Washington's inaugural address: Once again I was called to the office of the people. When the time comes, I will do my best to show that The great honor and the lofty feeling of the confidence placed in me by the people of the United States. The Constitution requires the President to be sworn in before the discharge of his official duties. I now swear before you that if, during my administration, any attempt or willful violation of the law, except In addition to the punishment of the Constitution, I also accept the severe condemnation of all witnesses in this solemn ceremony. As a President of the United States, I cannot forget the oath that says, 'When the due time comes, I will perform to the best of my ability. Expressing the lofty feeling in my heart for this honor and the trust that the American people have placed in me. The time has come, the Chinese army is just outside the city, and they are about to attack our capital and ravage our people, and we are still waiting What? Don’t we regret it until we actually face this day? Now I ask you, let us take up arms, resist China’s aggression, fight against those brutal Chinese troops, and fight for the freedom and belief of the United States. Fight for the glory and pride of America! Let us start a new battle together! Long live the United States of America! Long live the American people! Long live the American military!"

The speaker was emotionally reading the so-called president's personal letter, but God knows whether this letter was written by Johnson?Or just another sinister joke by politicians with ulterior motives?

Dragon's Roar Chapter 110 Chapter [-] codenamed "Mission"

"Long live the United States of America! Long live the American people! Long live the American army!" After a moment of silence in the Congress, thunderous applause and bursts of cheers suddenly broke out.At such a time, any opinion against the war seems so trivial.

On May 1921, 5, the U.S. Congress passed the war resolution with a majority of 2%, and once again rejected the Chinese government’s proposal to persuade them to surrender, calling on all New Yorkers and all Americans to arm themselves and fight for the freedom and glory of the United States.At this time in the United States, there are two strange attitudes.The people strongly opposed the war and demanded an immediate truce, but the government actively invested in the preparations for the war with a fanatical attitude.

On the second day after the U.S. Congress passed the War Act, the "U.S. War Emergency Act" was promulgated at the same time. The emergency law stipulates that during the war, all supplies of the Americans will be uniformly arranged by the Supreme War Council and given priority to the supply of the army. Including food, wood, kerosene and other necessities of life.Among them, this decree can only be implemented in New York. After the decree is implemented, it is difficult to see bread and other foods to eat on the streets of New York. After knowing this decree in advance, unscrupulous businessmen took the opportunity to hoard a large amount of supplies, and then It was quietly resold on the black market, and continued to earn a fortune from the war.

Facing the provocation of the United States, the imperial government resorted to several strange tricks one after another. On May 1921, 5, the Imperial Army announced that the general attack on New York would be delayed by two months.This news made the U.S. military overjoyed, because it bought them enough preparation time, but it made New York civilians miserable.The extension of the war time means the extension of their suffering.By June, the shortage of food and medicine in New York had reached the most serious juncture, and civilians would starve to death every day.

On June 6, even more strange actions by the Chinese began, and an operation code-named "Relief" by the Chinese military began. On the 11th, a large number of Chinese planes appeared in the sky over New York, but they did not come to bomb New York, but dropped a total of about ten tons of food and medicine, and there was a letter from Emperor Guan Xuqing A personal letter, which told New Yorkers that war is just a matter between army and army, government and government, and civilians should not be involved.In the spirit of humanitarianism, the Chinese government airdropped food and medicine to New York to help Americans survive the war, and called on Americans to hide in safe places during the upcoming war.

Just when New Yorkers were ecstatic, the U.S. military confiscated all these airdropped supplies under the pretext that there might be drugs hidden in the food. The anger of New Yorkers could no longer be contained. life-saving supplies.And their hatred has also been transferred from the Chinese to the US government.All of this was within Guan Xuqing's expectation.Even senior military generals such as Chiang Kai-shek, Jiang Baili, and Zhang Zuolin had to admit that "relief" operations were far more practical than a large-scale air strike, and they could shatter Americans' confidence in fighting.

Time passed quickly, all preparations had been completed, and the Chinese army was unwilling to wait any longer. On July 1921, 7, the final battle between China and the United States officially kicked off.

There were more than a million troops on both sides, and the bloodiest skirmish took place in and around New York.In this military operation code-named "Mission", a total of 100 aircraft and 450 artillery pieces carried out a devastating bombing of New York.A large number of American soldiers were killed or injured. Because they were warned by the Chinese government in advance, the civilians took refuge in the location designated by the Chinese government. On the contrary, the casualties were relatively small, but their houses and poor properties were destroyed in the bombing.The soldiers were very envious of the treatment of the civilians. If it weren't for the close monitoring of the officers behind them, maybe they would all stay with the civilians to avoid dying in this massacre.

An hour after the bombing, swarms of Chinese bombers appeared over Wall Street in downtown New York.After these bombers hovered over Wall Street for 2 minutes, they finally dropped one after another heavy bombs and incendiary bombs from the belly, and ruthlessly exploded in the steel forest of Wall Street. In a sea of ​​fire.

Despite the best efforts of firefighters and police, the blaze could not be stopped.The fire burned until the afternoon, and the world's most famous financial sanctuary became a magnificent building complex covering a total area of ​​more than 73 square meters. It will become the history of Americans and the nightmare that Americans will never get rid of.

Shen Debian, the captain of the First Brigade of the Chinese Flying Brigade, flew over Wall Street for the sixth time, and he dropped the last bomb.Then he said softly: "Farewell, Wall Street; Farewell, America!" Shen De turned to pull the joystick, and the fighter jet roared into the sky, turned into a black spot, and disappeared without a trace...

Those congressmen in the United States finally understood what kind of punishment they would suffer if they refused the Chinese request, but it was too late now.Those congressmen hid in a relatively safe place, crossed themselves nervously, and kept chanting, praying for God's blessing.However, even if God does appear in New York, as long as it dares to block the advance of the dragon army, it will be ruthlessly shot and killed. There is no power in this world that can stop the advance of the empire!

The soldiers of the Dragon Army were not in a hurry to attack at all. They happily enjoyed the shock brought by the sound of artillery in the suburbs of New York, and happily watched their artillery shells repeatedly combing every corner of the American defense position in New York.Buildings in New York City collapsed one after another, positions were blown up one after another, American soldiers were blown up into the sky, and then fell to the ground screaming.During the bombing on the first day, almost all US positions were destroyed. 5500 US soldiers were killed, tens of thousands were injured, and civilian casualties reached nearly [-].

Those congressmen in the United States are afraid and timid. They know what the anger of the Chinese is like.However, when they secretly wanted to contact the Chinese, the Chinese government rejected their request. For the United States, the best time to surrender has passed.

"The outskirts of New York have been completely occupied. Starting tomorrow, we will continue to cover with artillery fire for three days." In the combat command, Chiang Kai-shek said lightly: "If there is no accident, when we enter New York, we will not encounter to any organized resistance."

"Oh, that means, everything is coming to an end?" Guan Xuqing's expression looked complicated. "Yes, it's all over."

Chiang Kai-shek nodded heavily, "It's really been a long time, one year."

Guan Xuqing said: "One year, we have witnessed a piece of history, a piece of history belonging to this country and this nation!"

"I have never understood why the U.S. government refuses to surrender?" Jiang Baili said puzzledly: "No matter how they look at it, they should clearly see that the U.S. has absolutely no ability to continue to resist. They are so stubborn. What is the reason?

Guan Xuqing smiled slightly: "This is politics. In fact, the army serves politics. For us, since we have fought, we must completely defeat the Americans. It seems that we have done it. The United States is over. !" It's over, it's that simple, just two simple words.But it includes the blood of how many outstanding Chinese soldiers paid for it.

On July 1921, 7, the bombing of the Chinese army finally ended, and 19 Dragon Army troops began to attack New York, the capital of the United States.Just as Guan Xuqing expected, the Chinese army did not encounter any strong resistance, and the sporadic shooting of American soldiers could not stop the advance of the Chinese soldiers at all.On the battlefield, all the Chinese soldiers saw were the corpses of the Americans and the guns that were blown to pieces.Some bombs were blown up by Chinese artillery before they could even be removed from the ammunition boxes.

The gate of New York was opened, and countless Chinese soldiers swarmed into this world financial center. At this time, New York had long been in ruins under the cover of artillery fire for several days.When Chinese soldiers advanced near Wall Street and wanted to take a look at this famous "attraction", they unfortunately only saw a piece of broken bricks and tiles.The civilians in New York quietly stayed where they should be, and no one dared to make a sound. The Chinese government had promised them.As long as they do not resist, they will not be harmed.But the soldiers were not so lucky. They were quickly killed by Chinese soldiers mercilessly holding weapons.By the time the American soldiers finally realized that holding a weapon was tantamount to death, tens of thousands of American soldiers had already fallen under the guns of Chinese soldiers.

Chiang Kai-shek and his generals discussed the attack plan for the most difficult and most important location.

Mao Renfeng, Director of the Intelligence Department of the Security Bureau, pointed on the map and explained the situation of the New York City Hall in detail.New York City Hall is located in the south of Broadway in New York City. After the biochemical crisis in Washington, the US government and Congress all moved to the City Hall to form the temporary head office of the United States.

This huge 23000-square-meter building is bounded by the Hudson River to the west, the East River to the east, and Upper New York Bay to the south, which will make it more difficult for troops to attack, making it an easy-to-defend A natural fortress to attack.What is even more troublesome is the Brooklyn Bridge leading to the City Hall. As the only way to the City Hall, the narrow Brooklyn Bridge, as long as a few heavy machine guns are erected on the bridge, it will form a complex. Close, Wan Fu Mo open the situation.

Dragon's Roar Chapter [-] The President's Son

Assuming that all the previous difficulties are overcome, after entering the Brooklyn Bridge, they will also face complex structures and huge underground fortifications. The U.S. military can effectively attack the Dragon Army by virtue of the complex terrain in this area. It is difficult to completely eliminate the defense forces of the US military.According to estimates, it would take at least a week for the Long Army to fully control the area of ​​the city hall, and it might cost tens of thousands of people.
