Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

Chapter 822 The Empire Is Moving Ahead

After sending Poincare away, Zhu An picked up the phone again: "Hello! Can you connect me to the headquarters of Zanjan Fortress, Zanjan Fortress? I'm Zhu An, and I hope you immediately mobilize artillery to block Kyzylea No ships are allowed to pass through the Zaan River. Yes, if conditions permit, please notify the Air Force and tell them to quickly send fighter jets to block it. I suspect that the Chinese are planning to attack us from behind by means of amphibious landing."

After talking on the phone with Zanjan Fortress, Zhu An sighed heavily. He had already told Zanjan Fortress the current situation. He hoped that the commander of this fortress would put the overall situation first and immediately execute the order. I did my last effort for the entire defense.Now he began to think about what his opponent was thinking, whether Feng Yuxiang would immediately send a second force to seize the cargo wharf by the Kizil Uzan River after destroying the base, and hoped that his deployment was not too late .

Suddenly there was a violent explosion outside the door, followed by intense gunshots like roasted beans. Zhu An instinctively realized that something was wrong, but as a commander, he still tried to stay calm.Soon, a guard covered in blood stumbled in and said to Zhu An out of breath: "Commander-in-Chief, something is wrong. A large number of Chinese soldiers appeared near our headquarters. They They have surrounded us!"

"What? There are Chinese people here." After hearing the guard's words, Zhu An almost jumped up in surprise.Because he really couldn't imagine that the other party could rush here.

"Yes! That's it." The guard stammered, "These Chinese people wear strange clothes, but they all wear Chinese-style steel helmets, and they all speak Chinese. They are all automatic weapons, the guns are very accurate, and we have nothing to do." Before the words fell, there was another loud explosion sound outside. With this explosion, the Rose Palace where the French Army Command was located seemed to be caught in an extreme crisis. It swayed up and down like a severe earthquake.

"Damn it!" Zhu An patted the spilled dirt on his body, and suddenly cursed loudly: "The Chinese are blasting the outer wall! Send someone to block it!"

After a few seconds, he issued a second order: "Everyone, take up arms and prepare for the final battle." Before he could finish speaking, there was another explosion.A puff of thick smoke seeped in through the crack of the door and surrounded Zhu An who was still shouting orders. Just as he desperately wiped his face with his hands so that he could see the current situation clearly, "General, be careful!" A voice suddenly came from beside him, and then a huge black shadow descended from the sky and landed on him.

"How did you do it? So many people from the first and second combat teams haven't captured this place yet?" Hearing the constant explosions and the whistling of bullets, he looked at the explosions that emerged from the *** building opposite the Rose Palace. The thick smoke and huge flames soared into the sky, and Chen Jitang, the commander of the armored regiment standing nearby, looked very unhappy.Although his troops received the order to attack this building within 48 hours, as a special commando, they should be able to tear apart the opponent's defense network in an instant.But now, the battle has been going on for half an hour, and there is still no result. This can't help but make this hot-tempered general feel ashamed.

"Bastard!" After a while, when he saw that his troops were once again blocked by the crossfire of the opponent's two machine guns on the second floor, Chen Jitang couldn't bear it anymore, he stomped his feet heavily, and then pulled Passed a miniature submachine gun in the hands of a soldier, loaded it quickly, and then waved his hand: "The third team follows me!"

The soldier froze for a moment and advised, "General Chen, you are the commander of the Armored Corps, how can you go into battle in person? What will we do if something happens to you?"

Chen Jitang glared and said: "Fart! I was cursed to death by you before I started the battle. This battle was so fucking useless. If Tang Shengzhi and Chen Cheng knew about it, they wouldn't laugh at my surname Chen. Idiot general! A man can be killed and never humiliated, don't talk nonsense, follow me if you are not afraid of death!"

A group of elite assault troop soldiers quickly followed their boss and rushed out. "Blow down all the windows on the second floor!" Chen Jitang's first order on the battlefield made everyone shudder.

"General, it doesn't seem right to do this!" An officer followed Chen Jitang, then turned sideways, and whispered to the commander: "General Feng clearly requested to keep this building, saying that it was built in 1720, is one of the masterpieces of Chinese architecture"

"Fart!" Before his subordinate finished speaking, Chen Jitang gave the opponent a severe shudder in the head. "What are we talking about protecting ancient buildings now? The battlefield is changing rapidly. If you hesitate a little, you may be killed by the enemy first. Blow it up for me! Blow it up!" With Chen Jitang's order, those who had no recoil The artillerymen of the artillery immediately got busy. They skillfully manipulated six 6mm recoilless artillery, and then pointed these artillery at this exquisite building. After a few loud noises, the Rose Palace was immediately surrounded by clouds of gray smoke. Shrouded by the sky, shards of glass flew around like snowflakes, and the French machine gun position on the second floor was also swallowed by a huge thick fog.

"Rush up! Capture that French cowhide general alive." Seeing that the obstacles in front of him had been completely eliminated, Chen Jitang waved his arms, and rushed in first.The commandos also rushed up quickly, met the guards guarding there, and engaged in fierce close quarters combat inside the stairs.They used almost all types of weapons in their hands, from daggers, bayonets, grenades to heavy machine guns, flamethrowers, and automatic weapons swept like the wind.The exquisite marble walls of the entire Rose Palace have all become honeycombs at this time.In the dimly lit building filled with gunpowder, soldiers from both sides kept falling from the stairs or the floor and fell to the hard ground to die.After arduous fighting, the commando finally cleared the superstructure of the Rose Palace and compressed the French army in the basement. The victory is already in sight.

At 10 am, two battalions of the 187th Infantry Regiment of the 686th Division who came to reinforce them entered the Rose Palace. The balance of power was tilted towards the Dragon Army, and more and more French and Iranian defenders were killed.The French defenses began to weaken.At this time, Chen Jitang didn't want to pay a higher price when he was about to win, so he began to withdraw his elite troops from the battle.After all, it takes a lot more time to train an elite army than an ordinary army.

Chen Jitang gave an order, and the troops began to fire armor-piercing projectiles at Rose Palace.At the same time, the tanks opened fire immediately after the assault troops withdrew.Bricks and high-explosive armor-piercing shells flew around with the bodies of French soldiers, which greatly accelerated the progress of the Dragon Army.In the end, the remaining French army hid in the basement of the Rose Palace. After the Dragon Army failed to persuade them to surrender, they sent combat engineers to blast the basement as a whole, and finally took the Rose Palace.The entire battle lasted 3 hours, and the Dragon Army suffered 200 casualties, and the French and Iranian troops were naturally countless.

When the five-clawed golden dragon flag fluttered over the incomplete Rose Palace, it also marked that the entire battle in Tehran had entered the final stage.The change of hands of the Rose Palace resulted in the cutting off of the French army in all directions throughout Tehran, and at the same time the French army lost its highest command and dispatch.Like a human body without a brain, it cannot coordinate effectively.The next move of the Dragon Army is to sprinkle a handful of salt on the wounds of the French.

At 12:[-] noon, the Dragon Army captured the Imam Grand Mosque. This mosque was actually a transfer station for communication between France and Iran. The capture of the Dragon Army also showed that the wired communication between France and Iran was completely cut off.If you want to contact, you can only rely on flying pigeons to send letters, but will the French know flying pigeons to send letters?

"Chen Jitang, what did you do!" Looking at the ruins of the Rose Palace, Feng Yuxiang couldn't stop his anger. He grabbed Chen Jitang's collar angrily and shouted at him loudly: "I didn't give you an order. Is there an order not to destroy this building? Why do you still do your own thing? Why?"

"Commander, the task you gave me was to destroy the headquarters of the French army. Of course, the main task you gave me was to capture the opponent's supreme commander alive, although you also said try not to damage the structure of this building. But the opponent's resistance is very tenacious, and there are heavy firepower such as machine guns inside. If we don't use extreme methods, our losses will be quite large. We can't let the brothers line up one by one to be cannon fodder. So, in Destruction is the best way at this time!"

"Hehe, sabotage is the best way." After listening to Chen Jitang's explanation, Feng Yuxiang nodded with a wry smile, "Then let me ask you, where did the person I want go? The French Supreme Commander Alphonse Where's Si Zhuan?" Feng Yuxiang suddenly changed the subject and asked loudly.

"Ah?" Chen Jitang opened his mouth wide and was stunned for a long time, then scratched his head and said, "I don't know this or that." After a while he added: "I heard that he was killed by the bombing. But we didn't find the body. Maybe it has turned into a piece of meat! After all, it is not surprising that the shell is so powerful that it died."

When Feng Yuxiang heard this, he was furious, pointed at Chen Jitang's nose and shouted: "I told you again and again that you must capture Zhu An alive, but you blew up the building and forced him to death. Now you are alive. No one is seen, no dead body is seen, if the emperor asks, what do you want me to do? What do you want me to do?" Feng Yuxiang's eyebrows were all blown up, and he seemed really angry.
