Song Dynasty: Yuan Dynasty, you didn't expect this, did you? I'm still alive.

Moscow lasted only four hours in front of the penguin experts at Xit.

Those cavalrymen who once roamed the grasslands and moved like the wind are now trapped in the same predicament as those of the Northern and Southern Song Dynasties—they can neither fight nor escape.

Before news of the invasion could reach Moscow, the Penguin Commanders had already completed the encirclement of the city.

That city wall, let alone withstand the bombardment of 150 cannons, would collapse instantly if hit by a single 150mm howitzer shell.

After the Eastern Song Dynasty mastered the technology of ammonia synthesis, black powder was completely replaced by smokeless powder, and cannonballs were replaced by incredibly powerful yellow explosives.

Moreover, the shells were fired from ten kilometers away, leaving no time to react.

The gold and noble treasures accumulated by the Grand Duchy of Moscow over hundreds of years all fell into the hands of Sit.

Xi Te gathered all the barbarians in the city together.

According to his theory, these barbarians should not have lived—what the Song people needed was a clean earth.

However, even the accumulated wealth of the Grand Duchy of Moscow over hundreds of years was far from enough to cover the expenses of a penguin colony.

The formation of the entire "Penguin Division" cost more than ten million taels of silver just for equipment procurement.

Therefore, Xi Te had no choice but to capture these barbarians and enslave them.

Although doing so risks contaminating the bloodline of the Song people, there's no time to worry about that right now.

In the fourth year, Zhite repaid the Allah bonds that had been issued earlier, which directly increased his credit limit.

So he continued to borrow money, this time doubling the amount—he needed to build two more penguin masters.

Then, they swept across Europe!

……

Let's go back to the eighteenth year of the Mingzhang era (1462).

The Mexicans, led by Liezi, conquered the Americas.

Just as they were preparing to use the three industrial cities as a base to sweep away the remaining reactionary forces in the surrounding areas, reinforcements from the Eastern Song Dynasty arrived in the Americas.

Although Luo Fu focused his main efforts on the domestic situation, he had no problem drawing an army to suppress the rebellion.

The force dispatched this time consisted of the Azure Dragon Fleet, plus 50,000 Song soldiers.

Dozens of warships and hundreds of cannons opened fire on Chen Binghe Prefecture, raining down bullets and turning the Mo army's defensive facilities into ruins.

Subsequently, 50,000 Song troops began to land.

Their machine guns far outnumbered those of the Mexican army, both in proportion and quantity.

Under this terrifying firepower, the Mexican army had no choice but to retreat.

At this time, the royalist forces around the city began to counterattack, constantly harassing the Mexican army.

Forced into a corner, the Mo army general Cai Tie led 3,000 men to cover the rear, relying on the favorable terrain to block the Song army, thus buying time for the main Mo army force and the workers of Chen Bing and Zhou to retreat.

The scene of Liu Bei leading his people across the river has been repeated in the Americas.

Song general Qian Chonglou was very disdainful of the Mo army's actions—instead of concentrating superior forces to resist, they dispersed their forces; wasn't that courting death?

How long can these 3,000 men hold out?

Qian Chonglou used the same old tactics: first send small groups of troops to probe the position of the enemy's main force, then concentrate artillery fire to bombard the area, and finally send in the main army.

If the attack fails, retreat temporarily, continue bombarding the area with artillery, and then launch a full-scale attack.

He was not like those American intellectuals who knew nothing about military affairs; he was someone who had genuinely studied military matters.

However, Cai Tie was the kind of ruthless man who dared to go toe-to-toe with a Mark III machine gun while holding only a hunting rifle.

The soldiers who stayed behind to cover the rear were all volunteers.

They all knew that their mission was a death sentence, but they still went without hesitation.

Because they know what they are fighting for—

In order to stop being exploited

So that family and friends can live a better life,

For the benefit of all our fellow workers

For Marxism!

As the art of war says, "An army driven by desperation is bound to win."

The soldiers who remained were beyond what could be described as "desperate soldiers."

No matter how fierce the Song army's artillery fire was, it could not break their will.

When the Song infantry began their attack, the frenzied Cai Tie even launched a counter-charge.

In the eyes of the Song army, the Mo army was a group of incomprehensible monsters—they would charge forward even in the face of a hail of bullets, and even if they were hit by bullets, they would still rush up and bite you.

Qian Chonglou had never seen this kind of playing style before.

Often, after his army fought a hard battle and finally captured a position, the Mo army would launch a counterattack and take it back.

Moreover, he was surprised to find that the Mo army's bold counter-charges that brought them closer to the enemy allowed them to fight to the death at close range, where the Song army's heavy firepower was ineffective, thus achieving the effect of "the inferior defeating the superior".

After this battle, Qian Chonglou studied it extensively and benefited greatly from it.

He called this tactic "short strike".

He had to admit that a century of overwhelming numerical and equipment superiority had rendered the Song army's tactical reserves outdated.

However, the Mexican army possesses extraordinary military innovation capabilities.

Of course, the fact that the Song army won for a hundred years with this tactic also shows that it has its merits—continuing to "bombard with artillery, then charge with infantry; charge with infantry, then bombard with artillery if the infantry can't reach them."

Cai Tie used 3,000 men to hold off Qian Chonglou's 30,000 men for three days.

Finally, the Mexican army ran out of ammunition and lost the ability to resist.

At this moment, only five Mo soldiers remained on the last piece of the battlefield.

Cai Tie was not among them—he had already fallen on the road to victory.

Qian Chonglou took in the entire battlefield through the telescope, then slowly lowered the telescope and let out a long sigh.

"We're all from the Song Dynasty, why do we have to do this?"

"Three thousand men fought to the very last moment... truly a group of respectable opponents."

"Do not harm those five men; persuade them to surrender to the master."

When the Song army surrounded them, the five men put their arms around each other's shoulders and burst into laughter.

"Arise, you starving and freezing slaves!"

Arise, wolves of the earth!

... "

With a loud bang, the five men and dozens of Song soldiers around them all perished.

Those five men never considered surrendering.

For three days, they held off 30,000 men with equipment far inferior to that of the Song army.

Their mission is complete.

Their last thought was to kill the enemy—so they detonated the last bomb.

After learning the news from the front lines, Qian Chonglou fell into a long silence.

These three thousand people frightened him.

What kind of army could be so fearless in the face of death?

The casualty rate reached 100%, yet they did not retreat even a step.

Is such an army truly capable of being defeated?

For the first time, Qian Chonglou's will to fight wavered.

The arrival of the Song army in the Americas was like the return of a victorious army for the vast number of plantation owners and farmers.

Although they also had a hard time during the Great Depression, they even had to pour milk into the river.

But no matter what, they are the ruling class.

But the Mohists in Liezzi were different; they were truly going to suppress these plantation owners and farmers and confiscate all their property.

Furthermore, these plantation owners and farmers were staunch royalists, which made them even less fond of the Mexican Party.

Although Liezi did not explicitly state that the rebellion was directed at the emperor, this act of rebellion itself showed a disregard for the emperor.

With the cooperation of the royalists, the Song army advanced unimpeded all the way to the Chicago area.
