Nan Ming Sun Never Sets

Chapter 588 Evacuation Operations

Daming's evacuation operations in Europe actually started in an orderly manner a few months ago.

Especially the expatriates in the German region are the most urgently notified. Diplomats from the consulates in various places in the German region will even knock on the doors door to door, telling the expatriates in Ming Dynasty that they must leave quickly. Ming Dynasty has organized a special evacuation transportation line to allow them to leave. Expatriates leave crisis-ridden places.

After receiving the notice, most of the expatriates packed their bags and left the German region in batches under the organization of the consulate and Jinyiwei personnel.Most of them were sent to the two ports of Bremen and Hamburg by train, and Daming had temporarily requisitioned ships to transport them from Germany to Gibraltar and Morocco.Gibraltar and Morocco are the two most important fulcrums in Europe and North Africa. Although there are not many troops stationed there, they have a lot of defensive arrangements, and they are also particularly elite.

The expatriates will return to the mainland by boat or train from Morocco, or go to other Ming territories.After Ming completely controlled North Africa, he built a road from Suez to Cairo, Benghazi, Tunisia and Morocco to Xitang Mansion (Rabat).Although this railway that runs through the coastal belt of North Africa seems not very useful and overlaps with maritime transportation, it actually better connects the green corridors of North Africa and allows North Africa to develop better.

However, even though Daming was working hard on the evacuation of overseas Chinese, Xiqing's war machine was activated at an extremely fast speed.

The Western Qing Dynasty broke through the Prussian defense line within a day and completed the division of East and West Prussia. Frederick William and the Prussian Principality were persuaded to stay in East Prussia and stick to the capital Königsberg, while the Brandenburg region, the center of Prussian economy, was became an enclave.

From the very beginning, Jin Yiwei judged that the East Prussian area belonging to the salient had no possibility of defense, so they were the first to evacuate the Ming expatriates from East Prussia.So now East Prussia doesn't even have any diplomats from Ming Dynasty.After all, the relationship between Daming and Xiqing cannot be described as bad, it is simply a deadly enmity. The two sides have not had any formal official exchanges in the past 20 years. Bai Mingxiu does not want Daming's diplomats to fall into their hands.

But after the war began, an unexpected change occurred.The Qing army broke through the Prussian line of defense, cutting east and west Prussia, and East Prussia besieged without attacking, while the armored troops led by the Cossack general Krasnov directly attacked Posen, East Pomerania and Brandenburg. In less than four days, I came to the city of Berlin.

The whole of Berlin is already in chaos, because of the fear of the Tatars and Slavs, the citizens and villagers here have fled one after another.The last batch of Daming expatriates and staff who had not yet evacuated also had to evacuate urgently.

In the temporary resting place in the suburbs, Duanmuwen frowned deeply. The Qing army came too fast. The Prussian army gave the outside world a strong and tough feeling. Retreating, almost surrendering Brandenburg to the Qing army.This is the case with Prussia, and other German states will obviously not do better.

However, the most troublesome thing is that there are about 90 expats and staff stranded in Berlin.There are not only Ming's diplomats, some intelligence personnel who are not hidden secret agents, but also some businessmen investing in the German region, and more than 20 Ming's engineers and teachers who have been dispatched and hired.

"These people must not fall into the hands of the Qing army." Duanmuwen thought to himself.

The little bit of knowledge and ability of Ming's technicians and academic staff may be lacking in Xiqing, and Xiqing will definitely try to squeeze them.And not to mention the diplomats and intelligence personnel, who are the ones who master the secrets of Ming Dynasty.

Duanmu Wen even had inside information. The Military Intelligence Bureau of the Western Qing Dynasty was working closely to capture as many people as possible in the Ming Dynasty to obtain relevant intelligence and knowledge.In recent years, the Western Qing Dynasty has frequently kidnapped Ming Dynasty engineers and scholars. One of the worst cases was that the Military Intelligence Bureau faked the death of a Ming Dynasty aircraft engineer who was sent to France a few years ago, making people think that he died in an accident. But in fact, this person was kidnapped to Xiqing. They forced the aircraft engineer to do a lot of work and completed part of the accumulation of aviation technology.

It was only last year that Jin Yiwei found out about this matter in Daming, and organized an unsuccessful rescue operation, but before the rescue started, the engineer was poisoned and killed by the Xiqing Military Aircraft Bureau.

Although the Ming engineers and talents who really master the most cutting-edge technology and cannot be exported, generally will not be released to the mainland, especially after the aircraft engineer incident.However, even a group of good engineers will still help Xiqing's technological development after being controlled by Xiqing.Not to mention, this is harm to Ming people, and it cannot be tolerated at all.

At this time, Han Ye, Duanmuwen's subordinate, walked up quickly and said: "The Air Force Command in Europe has dispatched an evacuation fleet, and two Y-3s will arrive at the temporary airport in the western suburbs of Berlin in seven hours. We need to get people there as quickly as possible, and then the air force will evacuate our nationals to Paris and then to Morocco."

Duan Muwen nodded and said: "At this time, we can only rely on the air force, but Xiqing also has its own aviation force. The safety of our Yun-3 is a big problem."

Han Ye said: "Yes, there will be a certain number of fighter jets in the Air Force fleet to protect our transport aircraft."

Ning San said, "Why didn't you just bomb Xiqing's troops and open up a window for us to escape?"

Duan Muwen shook his head and said: "Now is not a good time for us to officially intervene in the war. We want to destroy Xiqing, but before that, we hope Xiqing will smash Europe to pieces."

Han Ye also said: "Yes, and if we expose the strong strength of our air force at this time, it is very likely that the Western Qing Dynasty will change their strategy, then this war is likely to be suppressed, and our strategic goals will be difficult to achieve. ”

Ning San touched his head and sighed, "It's really complicated operations."

Duan Muwen looked at the expatriates who looked a little terrified, and said: "We don't have many cars, and if the convoy is moving, the goal is too big. There is still a distance from the airport in the western suburbs, and we have to finish it within seven hours. achieve."

As long as the planes fly together and are protected by a large number of Air Force fighters, then they are considered safe.But now that the Qing army has arrived in Berlin, if they occupy the airport within seven hours, the plane will be unable to land...
