Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

Li Jinji noticed something unusual when he saw that the Rakshasa Army on the opposite side began to shrink its troops uncharacteristically.

Just as he was about to give an order, asking all ministries to deal with it with caution, he saw the fortress opposite the Suifen Ancient City Fortress, firing on all cylinders.

Listening to the screams in the sky, he saw that his side, the position, and the Suifenhe ice surface, including the Suifenhe Railway Bridge, were under shelling.

Countless firelights flashed on the ice and on the Daxia Army's position.

Because the smoke from the bomb explosion immediately filled the entire battlefield.

Even Li Jinji's headquarters was affected. The command post, which was originally made of logs, kept falling dust and hitting Li Jinji's body.

His adjutant wanted to cover Li Jinji, but was pushed away by Li Jinji.

Then he shook his body and shook the cloak on his body directly to the ground.

"Sir..." the adjutant shouted.

Li Jinji had a livid face and did not respond to the adjutant's words.

Almost a minute later, Li Jinji made a cold voice.

"Okay, okay!"

"This Chikosov is really powerful! He can actually cut off the wrist of a strong man. It seems that I underestimated him!" Li Jinji said coldly.

Li Jinji is very angry now. What he wanted before was to take down Suifen Ancient City in one go and did not want to let go of any soldiers.

For this reason, he also ordered the people below to hold back the beatings so as not to hurt the opponent all at once.

But in the end, he held back and fought, but the other party, Chikosov, saw something was wrong and ran away, which made him a little dissatisfied.

After all, his idea of ​​taking down the opponent in one fell swoop was completely shattered.

As a veteran, Li Jinji naturally saw that the shelling just now was to hinder his pursuit.

Now, due to the recent shelling, the entire Suifen River ice surface surrounding the ancient city of Suifen has been completely destroyed.

At this time, ice cubes and blood water were mixed together on the river, slowly flowing toward the southwest.

The only railway bridge connecting the north and south banks was also blown up in the shelling just now.

Looking at the extent of the damage, it was definitely the 305mm main cannon that was blown apart.

This means that the opponent has actually aimed at the railway bridge a long time ago, otherwise it would be impossible to hit it accurately with one shot.

Seeing this, Li Jinji also felt that he was very smart.

But what followed was worry, how should he cross the river and pursue the Rakshasa army?

The shelling just now destroyed all the ice on the Suifen River surrounding Suifen Ancient City, and now the river is covered with broken ice.

You can neither cross the river by boat nor cross directly on the ice. Cutting off the possibility of his pursuit.

Thinking that he couldn't beat up the drowned dog, Li Jinji felt a little irritable in his heart.

However, from the opponent's perspective, Li Jinji actually admired Chikosov's decisiveness.

He just took a quick look and saw that there were at least [-] or [-] Rakshasa soldiers trapped on the ice.

And with so many people, Chikosov would blow them up at his will without any hesitation.

And after successfully blowing up one of the opponent's main fortresses on his own side, he made up his mind in less than half an hour.

Li Jinji still admired the other party. But after admiring him, he became more determined to kill the other party.

This person is very difficult to deal with.

This is Li Jinji’s evaluation of Chikosov.

"Pass my order to count the casualties, treat the wounded, and have the engineers build a pontoon bridge as soon as possible. Let Zhang Yanyu be the vanguard to pursue the Rakshasa Army!"

Li Jinji issued a series of orders. He mocked Chikosov in his mind.

Do you really think that blowing up the bridge will hinder his pursuit? It's just a joke.

Upon hearing Li Jinji's order, the adjutant rushed to convey his words.

On the other side of the river, in the ancient city of Suifen, some soldiers were burning important documents in the headquarters of the Far Eastern Army of the Rakshasa Empire.

Everyone is in a hurry.

Only Chikosov was still standing on the observation deck, looking in the direction of Suifenhe with a solemn expression.

He knew very well how many casualties the order he had just given would cause.

Daxia's side was basically inside the trenches. Even if he suddenly attacked the opponent just now, the casualties caused to Daxia were very pitiful. After all, the opponent is in the bunker. Unless the bunker is directly hit, the opponent will only be injured at most.

On our side, not to mention those who were killed and injured before, the number of soldiers lost due to the rupture of the ice during the shelling alone was more than [-].

This made Chikosov feel very bad. There is no alternative at this point.

"Your Excellency, you are ready!" Chikosov's adjutant came behind him at some point and said softly to Chikosov.

After hearing his adjutant's words, Chikosov nodded.

"Inform all the ministries to retreat. Before leaving, ask them to blow up all the remaining fortresses and do not hand over these fortresses to Daxia."

"All...all exploded?" The adjutant did not expect that Chikosov would issue such an order.

You must know that the Rakshasa Empire spent billions of rubles to build the Twin Cities Fortress, and now it blew up the fortress. Is this really a good thing?

"What, are you questioning my order?" Chikosov turned back and looked at his adjutant.

"I don't dare, Your Excellency." The adjutant lowered his head quickly and said.

"It's just that your Majesty spent billions of rubles on this fortress, and it just blew up. Can't we explain it to Your Majesty?" the adjutant reminded.

"It would be even worse if we don't blow it up. Do we still want to hand over the entire fortress to the Daxia people?"

"Sooner or later the empire will counterattack in the future. Don't I want this fortress to eventually become a fortress that hinders the empire's soldiers from regaining the country?"

Chikosov looked at his adjutant and said.

The adjutant heard Chikosov's words and nodded.

"Understood, Your Excellency, I will go and convey your order now."

"By the way, there should be one thing. When retreating, tell the soldiers that at least a section of the railway that is more than fifty kilometers must be demolished. I don't want to see any section of railway within fifty kilometers of Vladivostok."

"I predict that the maximum range of the Daxia people's train cannon will not exceed fifty kilometers."

"As long as they don't let their train guns get closer than fifty kilometers, we won't have to face this terrifying train guns."

"I really don't know where these Daxia people got the technology to make such a powerful train gun!" Chikosov's last words were not known to be addressed to his adjutant or to himself. .

The adjutant heard Chikosov's words and did not answer because he did not know how to answer.

If he remembered correctly, the train guns of the Hans Empire did not have such a large caliber. Where did these Daxia people get the technology.

However, he knew very well that he should now convey Chikosov's order.

He knows very well that his Commander-in-Chief is definitely a resolute person and he doesn't like others' procrastination very much.

Thinking of this, the adjutant saluted Chikosov with a military salute and then quietly left.
