The Republic of China: A Letter of Appointment Creates the Most Powerful Warlord
Chapter 228: A temporary truce, a burning anger
Wang Wei's words were like an extremely sharp steel thorn, piercing deep into Mr. Sun's heart, which had already been riddled with holes and shattered.
Thinking back on the hardships and setbacks he had experienced during this period, and then thinking of the hundreds of thousands of brave and fearless soldiers fighting bloody battles on the battlefield far away in the Central Plains, Mr. Sun's mood involuntarily became heavier.
Wang Wei was right. If they chose to give up so easily, then all their previous efforts, all the actions they had taken, and the immeasurable huge losses would all be in vain.
Is all this hard work and sweat going to go to waste like this?
Thinking of this, Mr. Sun felt a nameless fire suddenly rising from his heart and rushing to his forehead.
After working for such a long time and spending so much manpower, material resources and financial resources, in the end, all our efforts were in vain. All our achievements were just to help others!
This feeling is really infuriating!
"Notify the Eagles that the goods were not received, and they should find a way to make up for it themselves!"
Mr. Sun, who originally planned to suffer in silence, decided not to let it go after thinking about the tragic battle situation on the front line.
According to the cooperation agreement signed at the beginning, the US needs to pay 100 million in cash and weapons and equipment worth 100 million to provide them with logistical support.
In return, the National Army needs to obey the orders of the Eagle Sauce and unite with the Feng faction to block the development trend of the independence army.
Now, they have kept their promise and sent most of their troops to the front line, where they have engaged in a fierce clash with the enemy.
However, the supplies promised by the Eagle Sauce were not delivered to the Guangzhou Port on time.
It is reasonable and logical that they should be responsible for covering this matter.
"Yes, that's what we should do!"
Wang Wei's eyes showed some excitement, and he nodded quickly in agreement with this plan.
"The Independence Army hijacked their ship, it has nothing to do with us!"
"That being said, even if Eagle Sauce is willing to admit defeat and send a new batch of equipment, it's too late!"
On the side, the Deputy Chief of General Staff said with a worried look on his face.
"Besides, the cooperation agreement has been signed, and a full-scale war could break out on the front line at any time. We can't just let our people withdraw, right?"
"Send them a telegram and tell them to wait three days at most. If they can't deliver the equipment, the National Army's battle sequence will be temporarily suspended!"
Mr. Sun is not as slick as Cao Xin and others. Business is business. The Eagle Sauce wants to stop the Independence Army, and they want weapons and equipment to expand their power.
Now that the equipment has been received, we can naturally proceed according to the cooperation agreement. However, the ship has been hijacked by hostile forces before it even reaches the offshore port.
Their National Army is definitely not willing to bear this loss!
After all, they still understand the principle of clearing money and goods. If the goods are lost during transportation, it can only be considered bad luck for the Americans.
……
Sure enough, at this moment, the news that most concerns the Americans is the Central Plains battlefield.
After the news of the armistice reached the other side of the ocean, Lowell, who had been in charge of Daxia affairs, ran to the Eagle Sauce Army Headquarters as if it was urgent. Through layers of connections, he met the Vice President who was in a meeting.
In the spacious and luxurious office, the vice president, who had just returned from a meeting, unbuttoned his collar, picked up a glass of whiskey, and asked with a smile.
"Mr. Rowell, you came here in such a hurry, there must be something wrong."
"Mr. President, I'm sorry to interrupt your work schedule."
As Lowell bowed to apologize, he could no longer suppress his anxiety and reported hurriedly.
"I have an emergency here and I have to ask you for instructions right away."
"A merchant ship bound for Daxia was hijacked by the Independence Army. It was carrying weapons and equipment worth hundreds of millions."
It can be seen that the old guy is a little flustered at the moment. He has no intention of stopping at all and is planning to tell the whole thing in one go.
"This batch of supplies is the other half of the support we promised to the Nationalist Army. Now that the ship has been hijacked by the Independence Army, the Nationalist Army is very dissatisfied that they didn't receive the goods. They are demanding that we fulfill our promise within the specified time!"
"Where's our fleet? Such important supplies aren't being transported with armed forces?"
The Vice President frowned and asked in confusion.
Under normal circumstances, how could such important materials not have an escort team? After all, the sea route from Yingjiang to Daxia is so long that anything could happen along the way.
Even if there is no threat from the independence army, there should be armed forces following to prevent pirates from looting.
"The escorting warships only followed as far as the coast of Daxia. No one expected that they would encounter the Independence Army's patrol fleet just as they were about to reach the shore!"
Rowell said with a bitter face, extremely annoyed.
How could he have encountered such bad luck?
The Second Fleet of the Independence Army had just been launched for less than half a month and had not been cruising in the southern waters for a few days when they encountered it. It was so damn unlucky.
"Is there any chance to get this batch of goods back? Even if it means destroying it!"
The Vice President drank the liquor in his glass in one gulp, his face flushed with anger at the sudden news.
The cargo ship was about to dock, but it was hijacked at this critical moment, and the entire ship's weapons became someone else's. I'm afraid no one would feel good about this.
That's why he wanted to take advantage of the fact that the Independence Army had not yet reached the shore and find an opportunity to blow up the ship. Even if he couldn't get it himself, it was better than aiding the enemy.
"I'm afraid that won't work."
Unexpectedly, Lowell had also thought of this idea, but it was difficult to implement given the current situation.
"Our Second Fleet is anchored near Sakura Country. Although we have the opportunity to approach the target, the Independence Army has already successfully launched two fleets."
"If we confront them head-on, we might even suffer losses!"
"asshole!"
Upon hearing this, the vice president was unable to suppress his surging anger. After cursing, he smashed the wine glass in a rage.
He now felt bad about the 100 million worth of equipment, but he also didn't want to watch them fall into the hands of the Independence Army.
Those people guarding the ship were also useless. They knew it was the Independence Army's fleet, so they just blew up the cargo ship to pieces, which was better than being towed back and arming their own team!
"What's the attitude of the Nationalist Army now? You must be here for more than just this matter, right?"
After a while, the vice president calmed down, took a long breath, and asked again.
"The Nationalist Army has a very tough stance. They claim that over 100,000 troops are stranded on the Central Plains battlefield and have no equipment to continue fighting!"
Lowell knew that speaking about this at this time would be like adding fuel to the fire, but things had developed to this point and were no longer within his control.
Therefore, even if he was scolded and punished for it, he had no choice but to endure it.
"Egative wolves, these Daxia people are all ungrateful wolves, dogs that can never be tamed!"
Sure enough, the Vice President became angry again when he heard this, and he gritted his teeth and cursed the National Army for their actions.
They even felt that the dignity of the empire had been seriously insulted!
A bunch of peasants, who only know how to fight for power, dared to offend the dignity of the Eagle Sauce and even made wild remarks and threatened to withdraw from the battlefield.
He really doesn't know how to live or die, and is extremely arrogant!
