Chapter 239: Capture New York

Under the fierce bombardment of the powerful Chinese naval artillery, the weak combat strength of the Mi army was unable to cause any damage to the landing force at all, and even the typical operational pattern of landing and seizing the beachhead that Hu Zhen had expected did not appear.

The first echelon transport flotilla of the Marine Corps, under the cover of destroyers and cruisers, rushed into the Hudson River for landing.

As soon as it landed on both sides of the Hudson River, it completely cut off the New York city from the outside world.

The second and third echelons of the Marine Corps landed one after another and occupied Long Island, Brooklyn, Manhattan and other elite areas of New York.

When the fourth echelon, with the army and special combat teams as the main force, landed, the more than 30,000 meters of the garrison army and the National Guard in New York collapsed on all fronts, and these not elite rice troops laid down their arms and surrendered one after another, and the Huaxia Army captured more than 20,000 soldiers of the Chinese Army in one fell swoop, and the entire New York area was in the hands of the Huaxia Army.

The city of New York was in chaos, and the remnants of the Mi soldiers threw down their weapons, changed into civilian clothes, and fled outside the city.

Countless ordinary people in the United States helped the old and the young, and they didn't even have time to bring their family's property, so they fled out of the city in a hurry.

"Sir, I suggest not to chase these ordinary people in the United States, concentrate on controlling the urban area of New York and arranging defensive positions, in addition to sending powerful troops to use the developed railway lines of the United States to quickly attack the towns around New York, and cause greater shock and damage to the United States!" The army commander of this landing operation was Ouyang Yu, and he understood the intention of Hu Zhen's strategic operation.

Hu Zhen also followed the army headquarters to the New York city area, he nodded and said: "We really, there is no need to chase a few Mi civilians, and even encourage them to escape from New York, even the Mi Army soldiers captured in New York are also released!" ”

"The captives were released too?"

The more than 80,000 prisoners and 143 ships of the Mi army who were captured at sea were all sent back to Nanyang by Hu Zhen's order to work as free laborers for the construction of the Nanyang railway, but in New York, more than 20,000 Mi military prisoners were released, which could not help but make people feel strange.

"The reason is very simple, we will not let go of these prisoners of the rice army. How can we let the 60 million people of the entire country know that we are powerful? ”

Ouyang Yu immediately understood: "Ah! Okay, this is to pass on a psychological plague to the United States, so that everyone in the United States can get this kind of plague and create more chaos. From now on, I'm scared to death of Huaxia! I will arrange for more than 20,000 meters of military prisoners to be sent to the hinterland of the United States, and report our powerful information to the 60 million meters of people! ”

Hu Zhen shook his head: "You don't need to do this thing, just let the young staff officers of your staff do it, you have more important things to do!" ”

"Yes, please sir show me!"

"I brought Fan Qianhai here. But he obviously doesn't have enough manpower, and while you sweep through the surrounding towns of New York, Newark, Allentown, Trenton, New Haven, and Hartford, you send people to assist him and accept the fat wealth of the American people in New York! ”

When he came to New York, how could Hu Zhen forget to make a windfall.

In this regard, Ouyang Yu understood and immediately sent three regiments of army soldiers to assist Fan Qianhai in a large-scale loot in New York, blowing up the vaults in New York, and carrying all the gold, bonds, and rice dollars in the treasury of the United States government treasury onto the transport ship and transporting them away.

The wealth accumulated by the United States for hundreds of years. All the stocks in New York were all moved by the Huaxia Army.

According to the later public allegations of the United States, the "rogue army" commanded by Hu Zhen plundered the gold, silver, jewelry, rice dollars, machinery, ships, and other wealth of the United States in New York and several other cities alone, worth at least 2 billion rice dollars.

Later, some people said that this was the rise of China to become the world's only superpower in a short period of time, which began by plundering the huge wealth of the country.

(Don't underestimate the two billion dollars, which can reach the scale of one billion dollars in any company in later generations, according to the exchange rate of later generations, in the United States at this time, two billion dollars is equal to two trillion dollars in later generations.) It's almost the total annual GDP of a top 10 GDP power in later generations - author)

At the same time, the Huaxia Army struck along the railroad line, sweeping through the area around New York, where the United States was in addition to a few police officers who maintained law and order. There was no military force, and the Huaxia army only had to carry a rifle and take a train to get there, drive away the police, and basically control a town.

In this case, even Ouyang Yu, who was cautious by nature, couldn't help but order the troops to go out of Philadelphia and divide his troops to capture Philadelphia, Boston and other places.

The naval fleet led by Zheng Dingbang was bored anyway. After asking Hu Zhen for his consent, he went all the way south along the coastline of the United States, swept through Norfolk, Newport News, Charleston, Savannah Jacksonville, Miami and other famous seaport cities, blew up docks, burned shipyards, and looted thousands of steam engine ships.

The actions of the Huaxia fleet have set the shipbuilding industry of the United States back by at least ten years, and even if the United States wants to build a navy again, it will not be able to do it in three or five years.

The news of the fall of New York reached Washington, D.C., the political center of the United States, and the chaos reached the extreme.

At this time, the political elite of the United States on Capitol Hill is having a meeting.

Although many members of Congress shouted at the meeting room like a psychotic shouting to "immediately drive the yellow-skinned monkeys out of the sea to feed the sharks", the President of the United States in the room, Benjamin Harrison, shook his head and did not speak, knowing that it was almost impossible to do this with the current army strength of the United States.

Thanks to the favorable geographical situation sandwiched between the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, the United States does not have any powerful force that can threaten its own survival, so the United States Army only retains the smallest cost of the establishment, at this time the number of the United States Army is only 170,000, and the largest permanent establishment of the army is only the regiment level, only in wartime it is organized into divisional and army-level establishments, and in peacetime there is not even a divisional establishment above the division level.

In order to capture Panama, the Mi army dispatched almost half of the army, and lost nearly 20,000 troops in the First Battle of New York, leaving the entire country with less than 70,000 standing troops.

With this little strength, how can you fight against the tiger-like Chinese army?

Another congressman jumped out and shouted, "We can gather the National Guard and form several army groups to take over New York!" ”

The parliamentarians responded: "Yes, call the National Guard of the states immediately!" ”

The National Guard is a paramilitary force under the direct command of the governors, and at this time there are 300,000 National Guards in the entire country, which can be regarded as a considerable force if they are assembled.

"We can also gather all the young people of the United States and arm them, we will have an army of millions, or even tens of millions, what are we afraid of a few yellow-skinned monkeys who have crossed the ocean?"

The parliamentarians clamored: "Immediately gather all the young people of the United States, organize a million-strong army, and subdue New York!" ”

A group of people are in the midst of a lot of noise, but they don't know that danger is approaching them little by little.
