Chapter 1025 A Slap in the Face at the Speed of Light

On the 14th, it was sunny.

Oxford, temporary palace.

Charles II is still studying the current situation with everyone.

"Our army has been assembled in important cities around London. The Chinese army has not made any movement for a long time. It is probably because they know that they cannot conquer us. So, we just need to hold on."

Browne analyzed.

"Although the Chinese are very prosperous now, in fact they have fallen into the swamp of war. They lack the strength to completely conquer Europe, and retreating now will not achieve their strategic goals. They are in a dilemma.

As long as we delay, they will have no choice but to ask for peace talks with us. "

Another minister also added.

This is the current situation analyzed by their strategic bureau.

To some extent, it is not without merit.

Hearing many ministers say this, Charles II felt a little better.

However, just when everyone was looking forward to Dahua taking the initiative to sue for peace, an aide hurried in with the latest information. "Report, the Chinese armored brigade in London suddenly launched a surprise attack on Slough Town yesterday, and the front line is in danger."

this.......

The minister who had just been saying that Dahua would proactively seek peace and that there would be no further military action suddenly felt his face burning.

This Chinese army has no moral ethics and always engages in sneak attacks.

"Oops, they're going to attack Oxford."

A minister suddenly lost his temper. Slough is a small town located between London and Oxford. It is the only way from London to Oxford.

The small town of Slough naturally has no value in being captured.

The intention of the Chinese army to do this was too obvious, that is, to attack Oxford and capture important figures like them.

As soon as these words came out, some people among the crowd suddenly panicked, their faces turned pale, and they didn't look like a big shot.

After all, Dahua has accumulated a high enough prestige through countless victories.

As soon as they heard that the Chinese were coming, these ministers couldn't help but panic, including Charles II.

The only one who was relatively calm was probably Brownie.

"The Chinese are so arrogant. Why do they dare to go so far alone? We have a hundred thousand troops in Oxford. If they dare to come, we will directly surround them and annihilate them all." .”

Brownie pointed at the distribution of troops on the map and kept talking.

His words were undoubtedly a shot in the arm for those who were already afraid. Everyone suddenly discovered that the Chinese army's attack was not necessarily a bad thing, at least it gave them a chance.

If the Chinese army is concentrated in London, they really have nothing to do with the Chinese army. After all, the Chinese army can get artillery support from warships in London.

As the Chinese army marches long distances, it not only loses the support of warships and artillery fire, but its forces will also become more dispersed.

Such a Chinese army is no longer monolithic, but has many loopholes.

As long as the British army strategizes and concentrates superior forces, there is no chance at all.

"Is this really possible?"

Charles II asked a little uncertainly.

Before that, every time they made plans, they were as confident as before.

But the final result is basically a disastrous failure.

Therefore, this greatly reduced Charles II's confidence in his people.

Even though what Brownie said was wonderful, Charles II still felt confused.

"Of course it is feasible, and we have no choice. We have already escaped once. If we escape again, we will really make all countries laugh and disappoint. Moreover, we have nowhere to retreat. We can't retreat to Manchester, where Closer to the sea.”

Browne said bluntly.

These words caused a brief silence among everyone. From a certain perspective, they really had no way out.

The first retreat to Oxford can be said to be a strategic shift.

If you retreat again, it will really become an escape. As the most powerful country in Europe, they also want to save face.

"I agree to use this opportunity to have a decisive battle with Dahua. We have certain advantages."

Army Commander Steve said.

What he said is 70% true and 30% false.

The main purpose is to take this opportunity to improve the status of the Army.

The navy had just been defeated. If the army could win a battle at this time, it would be a clear distinction and the army would definitely receive more attention in the future.

Others had no better way. After some discussions and arguments, they finally agreed to fight Dahua again.

Slough Town.

The Chinese armored vehicles rushed into the British position.

"Stop them, Demoman stop them."

The British officers shouted that if these armored vehicles were not destroyed, these armored vehicles would run rampant in their positions and destroy the defense line.

The charging soldiers of the Chinese army were very relaxed and comfortable following behind the armored vehicles.

At the urging of the officers, British soldiers holding explosive bags tried to approach the Chinese armored vehicles.

This is their only way to deal with Chinese armored vehicles.

However, it is not easy to get close to the armored vehicles of the Chinese army. First, you have to face the fire from the machine gunners on the roof of the vehicle, and you also have to face the infantry charging behind the armored vehicles.

Out of twenty actions, it is considered good to succeed once.

And occasionally blowing up a Chinese armored vehicle will not change the situation on this battlefield.

In addition, the Chinese army charged fiercely and fiercely, and the British army did not have much chance to blow up the armored vehicles.

Soon, the Chinese army destroyed their defense system.

In this small town, Great Britain deployed about 10,000 people to prevent the Chinese army from advancing on the Oxford Provisional Government.

There are a lot of ten thousand people, and the defenses are relatively complete, but under the attack of the Dahua Armored Forces, their defense line is almost like paper.

Facing Dahua's armored vehicles, they lacked preparations, good ways to deal with them, and lacked experience.

Maybe in the future they can come up with some good ways to target and restrict Dahua's armored vehicles. However, for now, the British army has nothing to do with the Chinese armored forces.

After the defense line collapsed, the British army could only flee. Although they stayed to fight to the death, they could still cause some casualties to the Chinese army. After all, the two sides were now locked in a close-quarters melee, which to a certain extent reduced the disadvantage of the British army.

However, there are still too few soldiers with such awareness.

Most of the soldiers saw that they were going to be defeated and were thinking of how to escape.

But this is undoubtedly a very stupid decision. In front of the Chinese army's motorcycles, these two-legged soldiers will soon be unable to run.

After a short run, they could only throw their weapons in a pile, and then the whole platoon and the whole company sat together, waiting to be captured.

The picture was hilarious, but it was the best option for them.

If you continue to run, you will die from exhaustion. If you resist, you will be beaten to death.

And by surrendering, you can at least save your life.
