Chapter 232 Undercurrents (18)

Ireland is a Western European country, bordering the Atlantic Ocean to the west, the Irish Sea to the east, and across the sea from the UK, making it a convenient channel from North America to Europe.

The Irish belong to the Celtics and are the descendants of the first generation of residents on the European continent. Ireland has a history of more than 5,000 years and is a beautiful and charming country with a long history.

During this period, Ireland was under brutal colonial rule by Britain.

In order to rescue the Irish people from the dire colonial rule as soon as possible, countless passionate Irish men rushed forward and entered the arduous independence movement.

Even without the existence of Chen Hao, the Irish independence movement flourished. In 1922, it broke away from British colonial rule and established the Irish Republic.

With Chen Hao's appearance, the time for Ireland's independence may not be advanced, but the blow to British colonists will definitely be greatly enhanced.

Chen Hao sent Chen Xiang, Zheng Tieliang and others to use a lot of money to support the Irish Party member Henry to the throne and established the Irish Independence Army led by Henry as the supreme.

Today, this Irish Independence Army has more than 12,000 officers and soldiers, well-trained and well-equipped. It is active in the southwest of Ireland, where the British power is weak, and has dealt a heavy blow to the British colonists.

At around 1 noon on May 9, 1908, an elite colonial army of more than 9,000 people sent by the British colonial government in April came to the near the Clis Mountains east of Ristol in southwestern Ireland.

"Dear Song, your plan is so wonderful..." Henry held up his telescope and stood in the dense forest on the distant mountain. Looking at the British colonial army coming to attack the Independence Army, slowly entering the carefully set up encirclement by the Independence Army, Henry was very proud of Song Yi, the captain of the People's Liberation Army Special Forces, who came up with this idea.

"Haha" After Henry praised a few words, Song Yiting interrupted him with a smile: "Dear Henry, didn't you say you wanted to use your chivalrous spirit to fight a fair battle with the British colonial army? At first I forced you to put this trap, and you looked very unhappy, why are you happy now?"

It turned out that when Henry learned that the British colonial authorities sent an army of more than 9,000 people to attack him, he wanted to lead the independent army with an advantageous number to fight the colonial army head-on.

It just so happened that Song Yiting sent Henry a batch of German-style arms. After knowing this situation, he threatened Henry not to lose his troops in vain with arms and funds. Then he gave Henry the idea of ​​waiting for the rabbit and ambushing the mountain to attack the British colonial army.

"This?" Henry said awkwardly: "Dear Song, aren't you saying that you are a good commander to win the best results at the lowest price? After careful consideration, I thought your words were very reasonable, so I changed my mind and began to agree with your point of view."

"Haha" Song Yiting laughed and said, "Now I'm not for threatening you."

"No, of course, no, I'll give you a few drinks when the battle is over." He was sure to win, and of course Henry wouldn't be ignorant and smiled cheerfully.

At around 3 pm, more than 9,000 British elite colonial troops who did not know that the god of death had arrived all entered the ambush circle in the Clis Mountains.

"Fire the Cannon" With the sound of the firing order, dozens of small cannons that had been arranged on the mountain began to roar from a high place, which suddenly put the British colonial army in chaos.

The Maxim machine guns that were ready to go on various commanding heights also showed their power. They made short and dense "dou" sounds, quickly harvesting the lives of colonial soldiers.

At the same time, more than 3,000 Irish Independence Army soldiers with good shooting skills, led by commanders at all levels, conducted precise shooting on the colonial army at the foot of the mountain, causing serious damage to the colonial army.

More than half an hour later, a loud charge rang. More than 8,000 Irish Independence Army soldiers skillfully installed bayonets on their guns, rushed down fiercely, and launched a final attack on the British colonial army that suffered heavy losses and were in chaos.

At around 5 pm, more than 9,000 elite British colonial troops died and surrendered, leaving only a few people still fighting stubbornly.

At around 6 o'clock in the evening, all the sporadic battles ended. The Irish Independence Army wiped out the enemy, won a great victory, seized food, supplies, and countless weapons and ammunition.

Relatively speaking, the Independence Army itself suffered minimal losses, with only more than 500 casualties. At such a small price, it achieved a huge record, which shocked the Independence Army that participated in the battle.

After the results of the battle were counted, even Song Yiting was unbelievable. After calming down, Song Yiting patted Henry's shoulder intimately and said, "Brother, you will be convinced now, and you will never get angry with my unreasonable actions this time again."

Henry smiled happily and said to Song Yiting frankly and bluntly: "Hehe Dear Song, who can achieve the greatest result at the lowest price? Who is willing to fight head-on, but I don't know that this kind of fighting method can be adopted to win the war.

So, at that time, I felt that my strength was good. In order to boost morale, I would insist on my own initiative and wanted to fight the damn British colonial army with superior forces to the death. Fortunately, God sent you to help me, otherwise, even if I win, the strength of the Independent Army would be greatly reduced."

"You are thinking clearly," Song Yiting said seriously: "Henry, in this ambush, your Independence Army destroyed the most elite British colonial army. Next, the southwestern Ireland will allow your Independence Army to gallop across the board."

"Thank you, Song, thank you so much. Without your support and encouragement, I would not have been able to get this step." Henry said gratefully.

After a pause, Henry said sincerely: "Dear Song, why don't you return to your motherland for development with such a superb figure? I heard that your country is being bullied and insulted by the great powers all over the world. With your talent and intelligence, you will definitely achieve great things after you go back."

Song Yiting laughed and said, "Henry, it's better not to mention this matter, you will know it then."

Then, Song Yiting hugged Henry and said loudly: "Dear Henry, I am going back to England. I wish you a liberation of southwestern Ireland as soon as possible and then all Ireland will be liberated.

As Song Yiting expected, after this battle, the Irish Independence Army became famous and became the leader of the Irish uprising. Hot-blooded men from all over the world came to surrender, which strengthened the strength of the Independence Army again.

After the expansion of the army, the Independent Army took advantage of the great loss of Britain's strength in southwestern Ireland and took advantage of the situation to attack and quickly controlled most of the southwestern Ireland.
