Chapter 946 The Last Stubbornness
The next day, the Chinese army continued to narrow the encirclement and gradually wiped out the enemies inside.
On the other hand, they mobilized a large number of troops and killed the reinforcements of the Mughal Empire.
The two main forces transferred were armored divisions, who were responsible for outflanking the past and finally blocking the retreat of the Indian army.
The other two infantry divisions are responsible for attacking fortifications, and some other troops are blocking all possible escape intersections.
The actions of the Chinese army were soon known by Ranchi. After all, he hadn't been surrounded yet, and the sentinels were still on guard.
When he learned that the two armored divisions of the Chinese army were advancing continuously from both sides of him, Ranchi knew that they were trying to surround him.
This kind of behavior is too obvious. If he can't even see this, he is not qualified to sit in this position.
It's easy to see, but hard to deal with.
At this moment, Ranchi had another headache.
When fighting with the Chinese army, its commanders often encounter those difficult choices.
Ranchi just faced the painful choice of saving or not saving yesterday, and today he has to face a new choice, which direction to withdraw from.
The good news is that he doesn't seem to have to worry about saving or not saving anymore.
"To the southwest, there are mountains to the southwest. As long as our army enters the mountains, the speed advantage of the enemy's armored vehicles will not be able to play."
"No, our marching speed will also slow down when we enter the mountains. What if the Chinese army leaves a unit to block us in the mountains, and then the armored troops go straight to Delhi. We are already the last Mughal troops. We went into the mountains and Delhi became undefended."
"To the north, there is still a gap where the Chinese army did not arrive in time. If we set off now and head straight for this gap, we can arrive before the Chinese army, and then protrude through this gap."
"That doesn't work. The road to the north is smooth, and there is no danger to defend if it protrudes. When the Chinese army catches up, are we going to fight them on the plain?"
"Go west, this is the shortest distance, and you can escape back to Delhi."
…
Faced with the chaos of his subordinates, Ranchi was very irritable.
Suddenly, he shouted: "Enough, I decided not to withdraw, we want to counterattack."
Ranchi decided to take a risk. If they don't hurry up and retreat now, their army will completely lose the chance to retreat, and they can only fight the Chinese army to the end.
At that time, it will be an endless situation.
Moreover, according to the prediction of the strength of both sides, the probability of their army being destroyed is very high.
In other words, Ranchi has made up his mind to take these guys to death.
The reason why Ranchi was so ruthless was not because he was mad or lost his mind in anger.
On the contrary, Ranchi has never been so sober and rational as he is now.
When Ranchi heard everyone arguing about how to retreat, he suddenly understood that retreat was meaningless. Even if it is successfully withdrawn, it is impossible to block the attack of the Chinese army, it is nothing more than bringing a little more casualties to the Chinese army.
Anyway, this army is destined to be defeated and wiped out, so it is better to fight to the death now.
This is still when they are at their strongest, and the longer it drags on, the lower the morale of their army will be.
Moreover, there is another advantage of working hard now, that is, you can cooperate with friendly forces.
As long as they unexpectedly launch a fierce attack on the encirclement circle of the Chinese army, and then the surrounded troops respond and counterattack, it is equivalent to attacking the Chinese army on both sides, and the chances of winning will greatly increase.
If they can break through the encirclement of the Chinese army, they can also save the friendly army and their strength will increase greatly.
Ranchi even thought of a follow-up plan.
Break through the encirclement of the Chinese army, and then go all the way south to Calcutta.
As for Delhi, Ranchi no longer wants to care about it.
He felt that defending Delhi was tantamount to being led by the nose by the Chinese army, and he would undoubtedly lose.
Moreover, he also felt that Derry couldn't hold it at all.
That being the case, it is better to be crazy, throw away the capital, directly kill the inside of the Chinese army, go to the territory of the Chinese army to wreak havoc, and kill all the people in Bangladesh, especially the Dahua.
Doing so can at least hurt Dahua.
Although, doing so may completely anger Dahua and provoke unimaginable revenge.
However, the Mughals, who were about to lose their capital, could there be a worse ending than this?
Probably no more, since the country will perish anyway, it would be better to give Dahua a slash before he dies.
The more Ranchi thought about it, the more excited he became, so he stopped everyone from arguing and made a decision.
Counterattack?
Everyone looked at Ranchi and thought he was crazy.
Everyone was racking their brains to escape, but Ranchi still wanted to counterattack.
"How to counterattack?"
A subordinate asked cautiously.
"At the same time attack the encirclement circle of the Chinese army, break into the immortal defense line, join the friendly forces inside, and then fight all the way to Calcutta. Calcutta is now the rear of the Chinese army, with empty troops and piles of supplies. We went to burn those supplies. Naturally, the Chinese army will retreat."
Ranchi did not say to give up Delhi, otherwise there would be opposition.
Although he is the supreme commander, these subordinates are still needed to do business. Some people object, after all, it is not good.
Although Ranchi didn't say it, there are not many people here who are fools.
They pondered the plan a little,
You can see how dangerous Delhi can be.
Once the Chinese army goes directly to Delhi regardless of Calcutta, Delhi will be completely finished.
Delhi is the capital of the Mughals, and Calcutta is just one of dozens of provincial capital cities in Dahua. The political status of the two is completely unequal.
However, up to now, they have no better choice.
Although they were arguing about how to retreat before, they deliberately ignored what to do after the retreat.
But in fact, they all know it in their hearts. Even if they retreat successfully, they will not be able to prevent the Chinese army.
Since it can't be worse, Ranchi's method is not too bad.
"I agree, this is the last stubbornness of our Mughal Empire. We must let Dahua know our determination. In order to resist, even the capital can be abandoned."
"I also agree that our counterattack may be able to have a miraculous effect if we take it by surprise. When fighting the Chinese army, we must not follow the rules, otherwise there is no chance of winning."
"I also agree that it is better to fight to the death than to retreat carelessly."
Everyone agreed that they were all infected by Ranchi's fighting spirit. Of course, this is also the grievance accumulated by being bullied by Dahua for a long time, which broke out at this moment.
In the case of a gap in strength, one must rely on some conspiracies.
If it succeeds, its name will last forever; if it fails, it will make people laugh and be generous.
There are countless examples of this in history.
The Mughal Empire has been cornered and has no choice but to make a last desperate fight.
