In Fengbei City, Sha Zhongxing was wearing a general's uniform and was patrolling various camps.

After the defeat outside the city, the corps retreated in embarrassment, which made the defenders in the city uneasy. Recalling the first defeat of the coalition forces a few days ago, the Shensha Corps was greatly encouraged to hold a celebration banquet. All the laughter and joy, Pushing the cup and changing the cup is as if it had just happened, both real and seemingly illusory.

Shen Wanzhou did not go to the camp with Sha Zhongxing to boost morale, but hid in his magnificent commander-in-chief's office and stayed alone.

The son died tragically, and the murderer has not been found below; the Shensha Corps has been encircled and suppressed by five forces, and the situation is already very critical.

Shen Wanzhou, who had been fighting for a lifetime, realized at this moment that the commander-in-chief's exclusive chair sitting under his **** seemed to be overthrown at any time. At that moment, not only could he not grasp what he was about to possess, he might also lose what he originally had.

Shen Wanzhou felt a sense of exhaustion that he could not get rid of, but he did not have the right to admit defeat. Once the Shensha Corps is defeated, the people of Shenjiamen will be broken into pieces by the iron hoof of the coalition forces. They have been loyal to him, and those who follow him will be forever. And he himself will be pushed to the public trial conference, labeled as a war criminal, and after being cast aside by others, he will leave the world in humiliation.

Shen Wanzhou thought of the various possibilities in the future, and became more determined in his heart. The idea of ​​introducing the European Union into the customs, relying on external forces to break the situation, first stand firm and talk about it.

…

Stayed up all night.

At around nine o'clock in the morning the next morning, Shen Wanzhou sat at the breakfast table with the constant persuasion of the guards and drank sticky rice porridge.

There was a sound of footsteps, and Qin Wenxu pushed the door from the outside and walked in: "Commander, I called Admiral Anthony again according to your instructions, but he himself did not answer...His adjutant's tone was also a bit evasive."

Shen Wanzhou frowned: "Did the Sixth District troops in Xibo No Man's Land advance forward?"

"No. After Wu Tianyin and Xiang Zehao returned to Beifengkou, they immediately sent troops into the outskirts of the Xibo No Man's Land, but the Liberal Party in District 6 didn't seem to have the intention to attack." Qin Wenxu shook his head.

"Where is the southwest and northwest?" Shen Wanzhou asked again.

"The situation over there is better. The coalition forces in the Fifth District and the European Union are approaching the garrison of the Gu family and the Sichuan family, and they have the intention of offensive." Qin Wenxu replied.

Shen Wanzhou put down the porridge bowl, frowned and thought.

"Commander, I don't think you should worry too much." Qin Wenxu saw that Shen Wanzhou was in a bad mood, and immediately persuaded him: "We are closer to the European Union, and the sixth district is due to the face of the European Union. He only agreed to help put military pressure on the Wu family in Xibe’s no-man’s land. Therefore, I think the Liberal Party’s troops have not moved. It should be that they have not communicated well with the European Union, rather than deliberately engaging us."

Shen Wanzhou shook his head and immediately ordered: "You call Admiral Anthony again, and I want to talk to him in person."

"Okay." Qin Wenxu immediately walked to the desk and used a military radiotelephone to call General Anthony, the Minister of Regional Security of the European Union.

After dozens of seconds, the phone was connected, Qin Wenxu briefly chatted, turned his head and looked at Shen Wanzhou and said, "Commander, Admiral Anthony is asking you to talk to you."

Shen Wanzhou got up, walked to the desk and picked up the microphone: "Hello, General Anthony."

"Hello, Commander Shen." Anthony replied in poor Chinese.

"Haha." Shen Wanzhou laughed, and asked in a spirited voice: "How is your meeting going? I just..."

"I'm sorry, my friend," Anthony didn't listen to Shen Wanzhou's foreshadowing at all, but interrupted his reply: "...We may not be able to provide military support to the Ninth District at the moment."

When Shen Wanzhou heard this, he was stunned for an instant.

"Our Supreme Military Council, the Federation, feel that the Shensha Corps has no political use value," Anthony said very realistically and very directly: "So the Parliament decided not to give you any support in the military. Shen, as a friend , I sympathize with you, but you are also an outstanding politician. You know very well that politics itself does not possess emotions and warmth... I'm really sorry, Shen."

Shen Wanzhou's brain was dizzy as he listened to what the other party said.

"Shen, I personally suggest that you give up your rule over the nine districts..."

"General Anthony, if our sand sinking system falls, it will only be a matter of time before the three major regions are unified. At that time, your EU political interest groups will no longer be able to contain the rise of the three major regions... Yours in the Asian League All political arrangements will be in vain." Shen Wanzhou roared a little excitedly: "I hope you make your choices carefully...!"

"If you can maintain the status quo in the Sand Sinking Corps, we are willing to help you. But you can't even defend your own territory... Then this war will be meaningless." Anthony still said very clearly. : "I'm really sorry Shen, I can't help you anymore."

A few seconds later, Anthony hung up, and Shen Wanzhou stood beside his desk in a daze, clenching his fists.

"Commander...!" Although Qin Wenxu didn't hear what Anthony said, he judged the other party's final decision in Shen Wanzhou's words.

Shen Wanzhou's brain is dizzy, UU reading www. uukanshu.com stretched out his hand to support the desk, and after a full two or three minutes of relaxation, he stubbornly commanded: "Notify all officers above the colonel level. One hour later, there will be a meeting in the large conference room."

"Yes!" Qin Wenxu nodded.

"Go." Shen Wanzhou waved his hand.

Qin Wenxu walked away quickly, Shen Wanzhou with red eyes, slapped the landline phone and ornaments on the table with a slap.

"Wow!"

The things on the table were scattered on the ground, and Shen Wanzhou roared hollowly, "Fucking, the six districts stationed in the Xibe no man's land was an illusion from the very beginning! The mess of the European Union zone, don't let me breathe. Come in this tone!"

…

after an hour.

Shen Wanzhou took the lead in convening an internal military and political conference and truthfully announced that the European Union will no longer provide any military assistance to the Shensha Corps.

So without external assistance, it is already unrealistic for the Shensha Corps to hold on to Fengbei.

How to do it?

In the end, Sha Zhongxing suggested abandoning Fengbei, correctly facing the fact that the Shensha Corps had been defeated, and defected to the allies in the seven districts to preserve the existing strength, in order to one day, can make a comeback.

This is the only way out for the Shensha Group now, so all the generals agreed.

At the meeting, Sha Zhonghang personally connected Zhou Xingli in the seven districts, and the latter expressed his willingness to accept the Shensha Corps.

As a result, the top priority of the Shensha Corps is to do everything possible to withdraw from the Ninth District.

…

Meng Xi received the news as soon as the military and political conference here was over. He immediately unfolded the military map, and after looking for it for a long time, he suddenly pointed to a small point and said: "My personal judgment, the Sand Shen Corps will not choose to retreat by land. The only one that can withdraw from the Ninth District with relatively small losses. , Is Lukou Port."

Li Zhan also glanced at the map and nodded slowly: "Yes, it should be here."
