Bulgarian Empire

Chapter 132: ,decisive battle

   The Minister of War unwillingly asked: "Can we no longer think of a way? Raise a sum of funds from the private sector for emergency relief, or borrow from abroad?

  As long as we have enough weapons and equipment, we can still arm a few more divisions. If this Bulgarian division dares to come, shall we come close and beat the dog? "

   The prime minister gave him a blank look and walked away without saying a word! He knows that the Serbs have paid enough for this war, and the young and strong labor force has been evacuated!

   In order to raise funds, the crazy devaluation of the dinar, the rapid inflation, has been suppressed by the people, if not because of the Bulgarian invasion, perhaps the revolution has broken out now!

   As for international loans, isn't it a joke? A government that may fall at any time, who would be such an idiot to lend him money!

  ……

  Suborovovich might not even dream of it. The Prime Minister drew him a pie directly! After receiving the domestic order, he immediately stepped up the offensive!

   In the dark night, gunfire broke the silence at Mount Mijul twenty miles away, and the Serbian soldiers rushed to the Bulgarian defense line bravely with explosive kits and rain of bullets!

   Guns roared. Facing the enemy's attack, the defending army seemed to be prepared. The sound of "Papa Papa" sounded, and the harvest began!

   After the heroic Serbian soldiers stepped forward and paid the price of their lives, they finally approached the line of defense. With a "boom", the explosive package was successfully detonated, and a firepower point was dropped!

  The epic heroic story is constantly staged in the dark night. Under the cover of their comrades, the Serbian death squads rush into the defense and die together with the defenders!

  Although the Serbian soldiers have performed very well, they are not helpful for the whole battle! Compared with the price paid, the fruits of the battle are trivial!

   Overnight, after paying as many as 8,000 casualties, only a dozen firepower points were dropped. The impact on the entire line of defense is really insignificant!

   But Suborovovich doesn't care anymore. This gamble has already begun. Serbia has no retreat, and he has no retreat himself!

   Compared with the daytime, the exchange ratio of offense at night has dropped too much! It has been reduced from tens to one to five to one, although it is still unacceptable, but at least the hope of victory is seen!

   Now it's Dante Christophe's turn on the other side to worry, and Suborovovich's performance is very abnormal! The Serbian army showed its combat effectiveness last night, which is completely different from the previous one!

   Don’t look at the exchange ratio of five to one. Once the defensive line is torn open, the situation will be reversed instantly. If the two sides meet each other, casualties will definitely increase!

   Now that Bulgaria has victory in sight, he has no plans to take the Left Army to die with the Serbs!

   Dante Christoph asked hesitantly: "What did the Chief of Staff think of the Serbian offensive last night?"

   The chief of staff smiled and said: "The Serbian army does not have the waste material we imagined. Their officers are still very capable. Leading a group of mobs to break out such combat power is enough to be impressive!

   But now Suborovovich has no choice, he is gambling with a fluke mentality! Our right-wing army is now moving towards Belgrade. If he can't defeat us as soon as possible, he will be in their capital in at most a month and a half!

   Our first batch of reinforcements, three new divisions, are only fifty kilometers away from us, and they will arrive tomorrow morning. If they can't defeat us before then, there will be no chance! "

   Dante Christoph slapped his head and suddenly said: "No, the Serbs shouldn't know our strategic purpose. After all, the logistics supply line is so long, they can cut off at any time as long as two regiments are needed, and come to an anti-encirclement!

   And according to their estimates, our earliest reinforcements should not arrive until three days later!

   Then the storm last night is over, they think they still have time to destroy us!

   Otherwise, they didn't make a breakthrough last night, and they should give up now. After all, our firepower advantage during the day is too great, and they cannot win!

   It’s useless to break through our defenses tonight. Reinforcements will arrive tomorrow, and at most we will be finished with the left army!

   But Suborovovich absolutely dare not do that. Once the army in Niš area is over, Serbia will be over! "

   The chief of staff shined and said: "In that case, it is better to complete them! Let the reinforcements speed up and rush over overnight, we let go of a part of the defense line, set up a pocket array, and directly fight with them!"

   Dante Christophe is a bit hesitant. As the commander-in-chief, he must consider the overall situation. The Chief of Staff's proposal is too bold! Even in the past few days of the war, the Serbian army in Niš area suffered heavy losses. UU read www.uukanshu. com, but there are still fourteen to fifty thousand combatable soldiers.

   Where is your side? There are still more than 40,000 people from the Left Army who can enter the battlefield. Even with the aid of three dissatisfied divisions, there are only more than 80,000 people!

   It may be possible to defeat the Serbian army, but what about casualties? What is the value of losing three to fifty thousand people, even if they win?

  With the difficulty of making a choice, Dan Dink-Ristov turned his attention to the others and asked, "What do you think?"

   The first division commander took the lead in expressing his opinion, saying: "I support the Chief of Staff's opinion, and a decisive battle with the Serbs, a powerful army needs to be tempered by iron and blood!"

   "But what about the risks? I have no doubt that in the current decisive battle, the victory will belong to us, but what about the casualties? If the loss is too great, such a victory will be meaningless to us!" A staff officer asked.

  ……

   Everyone was arguing endlessly, and it was difficult to unify their opinions, and they returned the question to Dante Christophe.

   "Okay, let me decide! What you said is correct, the reasons are very good, and it fits the status quo in Bulgaria!

   Our population is limited and cannot afford too much loss! But a powerful army must go through the experience of iron and blood!

   I decided to fight a decisive battle with the Serbs now. No matter what the outcome is, I will take the responsibility. Now everyone starts to prepare!

   Now send my order to speed up the reinforcements and they must come over tonight!

   Before dawn, the First Division opened an opening in the southeast to let the Serbs in! Arrange a pocket array inside, which will be covered by artillery fire after dawn, making them regret coming to this world! "
