Sky Curtain: My Great Qin must have an aircraft carrier!

Chapter 75 The enemy not only refused to surrender, but also dared to fight back!

"A clown who jumps around on beams will never be considered refined."

Li Shimin looked at the indignant generals below the stage, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Li Ji could no longer contain himself. He strode out of the ranks and said indignantly, "These barbarians from India are ignorant of their own limitations. How dare they bark at the Chinese people of the future!"

"Now that the Tang Dynasty is at peace, it is not advisable to wage war. I am willing to lead five thousand iron cavalry to capture the King of Tianzhu before the palace and avenge this disrespectful crime for future generations!"

Li Shimin did not answer immediately, but waved his hand.

Li Shimin understood Li Ji's mindset all too well.

Not everyone has Li Jing's composure, and he began to make a name for himself at the age of fifty.

Now that Li Ji is old, he longs for a battle to be deified so that he can secure a good ranking in the Lingyan Pavilion.

Li Shimin's gaze passed over Li Ji and landed at the end of the military officer ranks.

"Xue Rengui, if I were to send you as the vanguard, how many troops would you require?"

Xue Rengui, having been called upon, cautiously sized up Li Ji before replying loudly, "Having ascertained the enemy's strengths and weaknesses, I require only three thousand elite troops!"

In fact, three thousand is definitely not enough, and five thousand is absolutely impossible.

India is south of Tibet. No matter how skilled the Tang soldiers were, they could not possibly fly there on wings.

But we can use the pretext of a campaign to punish them, then secretly apologize to His Majesty and ask for more troops.

Li Shimin did not point it out, but said loudly, "I am very pleased that my beloved ministers are of good morale."

"However, India is thousands of miles away. I will decide when the opportunity arises in the future."

With a few words, he subtly appeased the arrogant and fierce soldiers, and easily let the matter pass.

Our army is taking this war very seriously, treating it as a second Korean War.

But when you actually face them, you realize how weak your opponent is.

In the midst of the interwoven and circuitous battles, a squad of war gods emerged.

While pursuing the fleeing enemy, soldier Pang Guoxing got separated from the main force. Instead of waiting in place, he continued to pursue them.

He hadn't gone far when he ran into Wang Shijun and Ran Fulin, who had also gotten lost.

The three isolated soldiers met up and decided to form a combat team to continue their advance deep behind enemy lines.

After traversing mountains and valleys, the three men unexpectedly stumbled upon the position of an Indian artillery battalion.

Facing hundreds of heavily armed enemies, the three did not hesitate at all.

They decisively seized the high ground and launched a surprise attack on the artillery battalion below.

The three men's firing caused the Indian artillery battalion to be bombed.

Hundreds of Indian soldiers thought they had been surrounded by the main force, and they fled in all directions, crying and screaming, without even having time to take away their artillery.

Pang Guoxing and his two companions pursued and attacked, capturing a large number of artillery pieces and equipment along the way.

In his post-war debriefing, Pang Guoxing uttered that famous statement.

"Not only did the enemy refuse to surrender, but they also dared to fight back!"

This statement spread throughout the world, and everyone stared wide-eyed, feeling an immense shock.

"My God, are these guys some kind of demonic assassins descended to earth? How dare a few of them chase after hundreds of people?"

"Unbelievable! Even traditional novels haven't been this outrageous!"

"That's impossible. Were firearms in later generations not that powerful? Would they only cause minor injuries if they hit you?"

"Dream on! Have you forgotten Germany and the Soviet Union? Millions were slaughtered, rivers of blood flowed, and machine guns swept through swathes of people!"

"Why do I get the feeling he's actually quite angry, like he thinks the other person is ungrateful?"

"Don't follow their example, or you'll only be able to afford to eat when the kids are around."

Even for a fierce general like Zhang Liao, it felt like an exaggeration.

It's like a few people getting lost in a team, and then telling them afterwards that they captured a small detachment of the enemy. Isn't that absurd?

Eight hundred could defeat one hundred thousand because the battlefield was extremely chaotic, and the surrounding people made it impossible to work together to fight the enemy.

With just a few cavalry charges, the enemy's formation could be easily disrupted.

With just three people, only a handful, they could easily see through the situation at a glance.

Especially since the Indian army has a battalion of several hundred men, who would be afraid of such a small opponent?

"He truly possesses the courage to defeat ten thousand men!"

Zhang Fei praised him, his face showing admiration.

Faced with India's aggressive stance, he was worried that the new China would make repeated concessions.

Seeing the new China achieve a great victory, Zhang Fei became excited, as if he were personally on the battlefield.

Liu Bei was discussing the route into Sichuan with Zhuge Liang when he heard Zhang Fei shouting, and suddenly felt like playing a game.

"Yide, if it were you, would you dare to charge forward against hundreds of enemy soldiers armed with muskets?"

Zhang Fei's eyes widened, and his voice boomed, "Brother, what are you saying! Back at Changban Bridge, Cao Cao's million-strong army stood before me, and I didn't even flinch!"

"A mere few hundred barbarian soldiers? One roar from me, Zhang Yide, and they'd all run away!"

Half a beat after he finished speaking, Zhang Fei added in a low voice.

"But I'm not stupid; I won't be the first to walk into the line of fire."

Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, and Zhao Yun couldn't help but laugh.

Indeed, firearms in later generations were truly amazing.

Even if a tyrant were reborn, against firearms, it would just be a matter of firing one more shot.

Zhuge Liang gently waved his feather fan and said, "Firearms are powerful, but their effectiveness depends on who wields them."

"Otherwise, the Indian army wasn't badly equipped, had several times the manpower, and had the advantage of terrain, so how could they have suffered such a crushing defeat?"

"The strategist is right."

As Liu Bei peeled an orange, a hint of emotion crept into his voice. "If only we had firearms, we wouldn't have to worry about the passes of Sichuan."

As everyone was lost in thought, the explanation on the sky continued.

The Sino-Indian War lasted for one month, resulting in the killing and capture of more than 8700 Indian soldiers and the seizure of a large amount of weapons, equipment and supplies.

Just as the Indians were preparing to learn to speak Chinese, Laos and China suddenly announced a cessation of hostilities.

This is to punish India's greedy behavior, not to destroy the country.

In response, Emperor MacArthur said: "I only realized how valuable Chiang Kai-shek was after I fought against the Chinese."

I simply cannot understand how India can maintain its confidence after witnessing the Korean War.

At that time, India was so confident that it was almost insane, and it was just short of shouting that it was the best in the world.

The old man's two slammed punches brought the third brother back to his senses; turning an invasion into a battle to defend the capital was unprecedented.

"They're leaving already?"

Liu Bang was engrossed in the story when he heard the words "withdraw the troops," and his interest waned.

"Didn't those Indians strike first? Even if they don't cede territory, shouldn't they at least sign a treaty and pay tens of millions of taels in reparations for military expenses?"

Liu Bang couldn't understand why he suddenly wanted to withdraw his troops.

No matter how you look at it, the new China is in the right and has the strongest military momentum.

It wouldn't be worth it to leave without getting some benefits.

Not only Liu Bang, but even Zhang Liang felt that India should not be let off easily.

This kind of mentally ill country deserves a good beating.
