Because the Freikorps Air Force completely suppressed the air force of the United Nations forces in the air battle, and brought an unusually heavy blow to the United Nations Air Force units, especially the loss of thousands of fighters by the United States Air Force in a short period of time, which directly aroused the fear of the United States high-level, and the US Army units on the front line immediately began to retreat in a planned manner.

Even the United States troops, which were the main force of the United Nations forces, withdrew, and the armies of other countries were even more unlikely to hold on in the San Fernando and Luzon City areas.

Not to mention that the offensive plan was shattered, the losses of the troops of various countries in the United Nations forces were even more heavy to a certain extent, among which the losses of the Philippine government army were definitely the worst, and the Philippine government army retreating from the San Fernando City area originally had 22 light infantry divisions and 5 light armored brigades, with a total strength of more than 200,000, and as a result, these Philippine government troops withdrew all the way to Manila, the capital of the Philippines, under the leadership of Sergio, chief of staff of the Philippine Navy, Army and Air Force. In the end, only 60,000 of the 200,000 Philippine government troops remained, and the remaining 140,000 either died or became prisoners of war of the Free Corps, and a small number of Philippine government soldiers who had just joined the army fled directly and did not withdraw to the Manila area.

The United Nations forces were concentrated in the San Fernando and Luzon areas, and with the exception of Philippine government forces, which retreated to Manila, the capital of the Philippines, the troops of all other countries withdrew to the U.S.-controlled Subic Naval Base.

At the presidential palace in Manila, Philippine President Estrada asked Sergio, chief of the general staff of the Philippine Navy, Army and Air Force, who had just arrived here, with a sad face: "General Sergio, what is going on?" How could a powerful UN force be defeated? And what about the troops of other countries? ”

Sergio was very embarrassed at this time, and he said with a wry smile: "President, Huaxing will use the strange means of transferring objects to steal a large number of advanced fighters from several countries, as a result, as soon as the United Nations Air Force launched an attack, it was beaten in the air battle and suffered heavy losses, and the air supremacy of the battlefield was handed over to the air force of Huaxinghui, and then Huaxinghui used a powerful armored force as the vanguard, and at the same time launched a ground attack on the United Nations forces gathered in the San Fernando area and Luzon City area, and there was no air supremacy. Even the U.S. Army could not stop Huaxinghui's three-dimensional attack combining ground and air. ”

After a pause, Sergio said gloomily: "The 22 infantry divisions and 5 armored brigades of our government army are concentrated in the area of San Fernando, and the two fortifications in the north outside the city of San Fernando soon fell into the hands of the Huaxinghui attack force. ”

Coughing, Sergio continued: "But at this time, the U.S. troops, who had originally launched an interspersed encirclement and annihilation of the Huaxinghui attack force according to the plan, suddenly canceled the plan of interspersed encirclement and annihilation, and fled together with the American troops left behind in the city of San Fernando, as well as the remnants of Japan and Australia, and did not inform our Philippine troops who were resisting the attack of the Huaxinghui armored forces, and I learned that the American troops and the Japanese and Australian troops fled, We can only order our government troops to retreat immediately, otherwise the 22 infantry divisions and 5 armored brigades of our government army in the San Fernando area are in danger of being surrounded and annihilated by the Huaxing attack forces, and as for the armies of other countries, they should all withdraw to the Subic naval base. ”

President Estrada opened his mouth, sighed, and asked with a bitter face: "Then why didn't the troops of other countries withdraw to our Manila area?" Are the Americans going to abandon us in the Philippines? ”

Sergio shook his head and said: "President, I don't know the specific situation, I led the troops all the way to the Manila area under the pursuit of the Huaxing armored forces, and I don't know what the Americans think?" PRESIDENT, have you asked the U.S. government about this? If the Americans are not ready to help us defend Manila, then with the current situation of our army, it is impossible to hold Manila! ”

President Estrada said gloomily: "President Ben has sent a secret telegram to the U.S. government asking about the next plan of the U.S. military, but the U.S. government has not yet replied. ”

President Estrada walked to Sergio's side, patted Sergio on the shoulder and sighed: "General Sergio, the telegram you sent to this president when you retreated from San Fernando, this president has seen it, and at present, various government departments in Manila have begun to implement the plan to evacuate Manila, but this president believes that the US government will not ignore us!" ”

Although Philippine President Estrada swore that the US government would not abandon the current Philippine government, Estrada also knew that since the United Nations forces had once again suffered a heavy defeat at the hands of the Huaxing Association and the air force had suffered heavy losses, it was likely that the US government was powerless to deal with Manila, the capital of the Philippines.

Sure enough, not long after, US President William? Colby personally sent a secret telegram to Philippine President Estrada, clearly telling Estrada that the United Nations forces led by the United States have suffered an unprecedented defeat, especially the air force has lost more than 1,500 fighters, and it has been unable to compete with the air force of Huaxing for air supremacy in a short period of time. The strategic significance of guarding Manila is no longer great.

So the United States decided to abandon Manila, and even the United States is ready to give up even the Subic Naval Base, or the United States plans to temporarily abandon the entire island of Luzon, among the United Nations forces, the remaining troops of various countries will withdraw to other large islands in the Philippines, so that no matter how strong the attack power of the Huaxinghui ground forces is, it is impossible to easily fight across the sea, and the United Nations forces will have the opportunity to mobilize more fighters, once the United Nations Air Force is relieved, the hundreds of thousands of troops of the United Nations forces, Luzon will be recaptured from the hands of the Huaxing Society.

Philippine President Estrada and Philippine Navy, Army and Air Force Chief of Staff Sergio, couldn't help but show a bitter smile, Estrada said to Sergio gloomily: "It seems that although the Americans have not abandoned our Philippine government, they have abandoned the entire Luzon Island, General Sergio, do you think the Americans can take back Luzon Island from the hands of Huaxinghui?" ”

Sergio hesitated for a moment and said: "President, no matter what, the United States is also the most powerful country in the world, Huaxing will temporarily gain an advantage on the battlefield, but they are opportunistic and use the strange means of transferring objects, I heard that now the United States has measures to restrain the methods of Huaxing, I believe that in the end, with the help of the United States and other allies, our Philippine government army will definitely eliminate the Chinese terrorist organization of Huaxing and take Luzon back!" ”

President Estrada sighed and said: "It's useless to talk so much now, let's evacuate Manila and Luzon as soon as possible!" ”

Sergio nodded and said: "I only brought back more than 60,000 people this time, and I have ordered these more than 60,000 people to be temporarily reduced to 7 infantry divisions, and in the Manila area, as well as the Luzon area north of Manila, our Philippine government army still has 6 complete infantry divisions and 2 complete armored brigades, so we must evacuate these 13 infantry divisions and 2 armored brigades from Luzon in a short time!" President, where are we withdrawing? ”

President Estrada pondered for a moment and said, "Although the control of the sea is in the hands of the United Nations forces, but this president thinks that we should withdraw to a place far away from Luzon, General Sergio, what do you say about Mindanao?" We, the agencies of the Philippine government, can be evacuated to Davao City in Mindanao for the time being! ”

Mindanao is the 14th largest island in the world and the second largest island in the Philippines after Luzon, and Davao City is the largest city in Mindanao and the third largest city in the Philippines.

Sergio didn't have any opinion on President Estrada, nodded and said: "President wise, Mindanao is indeed the best choice, although the strength of the Huaxing Navy is very weak, but the strength of their air force is very strong, if we withdraw to the big island closer to Luzon, we will inevitably be attacked by the Huaxing Air Force one after another, Mindanao is a thousand kilometers away from Luzon, and it is not so easy for Huaxing to launch an air attack on us!" ”

President Estrada continued: "But our troops cannot all be withdrawn to Mindanao, in addition to Luzon, our Philippine islands such as Samar Island, Mindoro Island, Panai Island, Leyte Island and many other large islands also need to be guarded by our Philippine government army!" Now, apart from these troops in Luzon, how many troops do our Philippine government forces have on the other islands? ”

Sergio said: "The president is right, like Samar Island, Mindoro Island, these big islands, our Philippine government forces will not give up, I think the United Nations forces, even if they withdraw from Luzon, they will definitely choose a big island that is relatively close to Luzon, and the main force of our Philippine government army can join with the main force of the United Nations forces and wait for the opportunity to counterattack Luzon." ”

Then Sergio said: "Our government army for this attack on Huaxinghui, the expanded troops during this period are basically concentrated on Luzon, at present, in addition to Luzon, our government army on other islands, a total of only 2 infantry divisions and 4 engineer brigades, but our military expansion plan is still in progress, in the next 2 months, our government army can at least increase the number of infantry divisions." ”

President Estrada nodded, and then said with a sigh: "Your army and all government departments must withdraw from Luzon Island as quickly as possible, and Huaxing may not know when it will be time to attack the Manila area." ”

Just when the two bigwigs of the Philippine government were discussing the abandonment of the entire Luzon Island, Lin Daxin, who had just arrived in San Fernando, had already summoned Meng Wei, commander-in-chief of the Free Corps Air Force, Wu Qida, commander-in-chief of the Free Corps Army, and Dong Zheng, commander-in-chief of the Free Corps Navy, to this place.

Lin Daxin said to the three commanders-in-chief of the three armies of the Free Corps with a smile on his face: "This fight is beautiful!" Very beautiful! It not only dismantled the offensive plan of the United Nations forces, but also captured the San Fernando City and Luzon City areas, where the United Nations forces were heavily concentrated, and inflicted heavy losses on the land forces of the United Nations forces! By the way, what is the situation of the UN forces now? ”

Meng Wei, commander-in-chief of the Free Corps Air Force, said: "Commander, according to the reconnaissance of our air force, the main force of the United Nations forces has been withdrawn from the San Fernando City area and the Luzon City area to the Subic Naval Base of the United States, but the Philippine government forces among the United Nations forces have withdrawn to the Manila area. ”

Wu Qida, commander-in-chief of the Free Corps Army, continued: "Commander, it seems that the main forces of the United Nations forces, the United States and the United Kingdom, are likely to give up the Manila area, and even the entire Luzon Island, after all, they have lost the air supremacy of the entire Luzon Island, and the United Nations forces are defending at the Subic Naval Base, and there is no strategic significance." ”

Lin Daxin nodded and said: "I think that the United Nations troops who retreat to Subic Naval Base will definitely evacuate Luzon Island by sea, as for the Philippine government forces in Manila, whether they stay or go, I think for our Freedom Corps, we don't need to think too much, the combat effectiveness of the Philippine government army is too scummy!" ”

Army Commander-in-Chief Wu Qida nodded and said: "The combat effectiveness of the Philippine government army is indeed quite weak, this time in the attack on the San Fernando City area, and in the subsequent pursuit battle, the first armored tank brigade, the first integrated division and the second integrated division of our Free Corps Army have eliminated at least more than 100,000 Philippine government troops, of which more than 100,000 have been captured, and a large number of weapons and equipment have been captured. ”

Then Wu Qida continued: "We have also captured a large number of weapons and equipment from the armies of other countries, but the total is not as much as a quarter of the weapons and equipment given to us by the Philippine government army, if it were not for the later battle, the fuel and ammunition of our armored forces need to be replenished, maybe we can completely annihilate 200,000 Philippine government troops, such a weak army, even if it has a million troops, our army of the Free Corps can win in one battle!"
