Nan Ming Sun Never Sets

Chapter 665 The retreat is over
The scene in front of me is definitely a concentrated expression of the mighty power of human industry. A large number of Ming military aircraft and naval guns gathered together into an unparalleled symphony of death!
No matter how rampant and successful the Qing army was in the European War, no matter how arrogant a general like Uleden was, at this moment, they did not dare to cross the threshold.

Without a broken back, without a line of defense like an iron barrel, Ming's navy and air force used their own ammunition as an iron barrier to help the remnants of the European Holy Alliance begin to retreat.

French commander Villar couldn't help but tremble when he witnessed the performance of Ming fighter jets, attack aircraft, and bombers that blocked the sky.

"What a power this is!" Villar sighed.

"If you have such power, why worry about the Qing army not retreating?"

The general let go of what he had been worrying about a little bit. He knew that as long as the artillery fire didn't stop, the French army would be able to retreat calmly.Hundreds of ships of various types have landed on the beach one after another, and the closest one is the Daming landing ship that has been used many times before.These ships used for amphibious operations played a huge role in the process of retreating troops.Because of the shallow water, not to mention large ships, even many ordinary ships dare not approach the coast easily, fearing that they will run aground.

And these landing ships, which were originally designed to rush directly to the beach, did not have this worry at all. They went directly to the shore, and then the hatch at the stern of the ship opened, and soldiers could board these landing ships one after another, and then leave.

Other civilian ships are a little more troublesome. Larger tonnage ships must occupy the port, and the Dunkirk Port actually has limited water depth. There are several tens of thousands of tons of cargo ships in the Daming Sky, but there is no way to park them.Only all kinds of civilian ships with relatively small tonnage are better to come in handy.From fishing boats to passenger ships, and even warships of the British Royal Navy, they all became evacuation ships at this time.

The soldiers who boarded the ship breathed a sigh of relief, but those who hadn't boarded the ship were more anxious.Some troops even broke out in altercations, hoping to board the ship as soon as possible.After all, no one knows how long Da Ming's firepower battlefield interdiction can last. Once Da Ming gives up, then they are finished.

Villar did not stay, and this time he boarded the ship anyway.

As the commander, Villar saw it more clearly. He knew that the retreat could only be carried out like this for one more day, and that the Ming army's hard-working retreat would never happen again.For this retreat, the Ming army paid a huge price.At least in Villars' view, firing shells almost needlessly and organizing so many military planes to deter them, if such consumption is placed on France, it is estimated that it will definitely hurt its vitality.

But Da Ming is different. Da Ming is rich in the world and has abundant resources. Such actions will not have any impact on them, but the cost is indeed huge.

Bai Mingxiu actually felt pain in his heart for this retreat. The large-scale operation of thousands of aircrafts overwhelmed the main force of the entire Atlantic Fleet. Seven battleships, battle cruisers, and five aircraft carriers. In World War II on another plane, there were sea battles that attracted worldwide attention.

However, he had to do this. In the case of not being able to send large-scale ground troops, in order not to fail the mission, his Goldfinger coins were not wasted, and he could get back a little bit. Bai Mingxiu could only use such extreme means.

And once night comes, Ming's battlefield interruption effect will be greatly reduced.At that time, if the Qing army launched a night attack, the French army would definitely not be able to support it, so today is the last day of the retreat, and he still has a quota of 3 people left. If he can fill all the ships with soldiers, he will definitely be able to Mission accomplished.

Listening to the rumbling guns and pushing each other, the French soldiers boarded the ship one after another, crowded in the full cabin, and were carried to the British Isle on the other side like a group of piglets.

During this period, the Ming army's navy stopped shelling, and the air force also stopped bombing.The Qing army believed that the Ming army had run out of ammunition and attacked again, but as soon as they moved, they were hit head-on by the Ming army. Various naval heavy artillery and air force bombs hit their heads, and the loss was not small.

The retreat continued until the evening, and all the ships had already retreated, but there were still hundreds of thousands of French troops stranded on the beach, and even their commander, Villars, had already followed at this moment.The only thing that made them feel a little peaceful was that if the Qing army attacked them, the Ming army's navy and air force would immediately fight back, and the Qing army still couldn't get close.This gave them a faint hope that as long as it went on like this, sooner or later they would be able to withdraw.

But in fact, after this day's fierce battle, the ammunition of the dozens of Ming Navy warships on the coast has basically been emptied, and there is no more ammunition for suppressing firepower except those left for emergency.

And the air force is the same, high-intensity execution of missions, and some pilots even take a short break after performing missions, and immediately take off to fight again, which has already overdrawn the combat power of Ming Air Force and Hainan Airlines.

When night fell completely, the naval fleet fired another wave of artillery toward the coast, and then began to retreat.

After the perceptive Cheng Lin heard the shelling of the Ming army in the night, he ordered his subordinates: "After the shelling is over, start to encircle and suppress the enemy."

The officers under him were shocked: "Shuai Lin, what should we do if the Ming army attacks us again?"

Cheng Lin was very convinced: "They won't care about it anymore. It's already amazing to maintain this kind of intensity of firepower projection for a day. This kind of tactics is very inconsistent with the characteristics of the Ming army's emphasis on efficiency. It is also because we forced the Ming army to It’s up to this point. Under normal circumstances, with this kind of firepower, if the Ming army is equipped with a group army, then our 70 army may be defeated.”

Everyone didn't believe it, but they still had lingering fears when they thought about the terrible shelling and bombing by the Ming army.

Cheng Lin knew very well that having too many soldiers was useless.Even if the army of 70 is attacked by powerful firepower, after being divided, encircled and wiped out, a large number of soldiers are just a target to be killed by strafing artillery. It's all easy.

On the last day of the retreat, Bai Mingxiu used such a large battle to withdraw 73000 people from Dunkirk, and successfully completed the main task assigned by the system, but at the same time nearly [-] soldiers of the European Holy Alliance were captured by the Qing army. They were defeated and captured that night.The largest resistance force in France was completely destroyed, and within the next three weeks, the established French armies were annihilated or surrendered.

In the end, Louis XIV, who was disheartened and seriously injured, left France, took a boat to the French Acadian colony in North America, and moved the capital to Quebec City, in this way to symbolize that France is still alive.
