Chapter 1737: Perfecting the Plan

Leaving the modification factory, Kawasaki Meijing did not go directly to the training ground, but to the front-line headquarters, in the Sakura plan is about to begin, this is a huge plan, even if he has the spirit of sacrifice for this plan, but it is impossible to die before the division, it is really not even the Pacific Railway, or even the border of the United States, it will fail, it would be a pity.

During this time, he was refitting the factory, but he did not relax the promotion of the various projects of the Sakura Plan, and the training was handed over to the regiment commander below, and it was carried out step by step, and as for the reconnaissance work, it was handed over to the front commander, and with the cooperation of the Chinese reconnaissance plane, it was carried out in an all-round way.

Before the Sakura Plan begins, Japan must grasp the battlefield situation of both sides, and it is best to know from the reconnaissance troops where the actual line of control of the two sides is at present, so that it is conducive to him leading his troops through the Rocky Mountains, which is the first step of the whole plan, and it is also the preliminary stage of the relatively high danger.

The cherry blossom plan is divided into three parts, through the Rocky Mountains, into the no-man's land of the snowfields of central Canada, this is the first part, into the United States, directly to the Pacific Railway, this is the last part, through the entire Canadian no man's land, to the United States, this is the middle step, relatively speaking, the previous steps and the back steps are more important, and the danger is a little greater, as for the intermediate steps, as long as they are not too unlucky, the probability of meeting Americans and Canadians is almost infinitely close to zero, even if encountered, Their 5,000 armored forces are enough to eat, so that the news of their passage will not be exposed.

With the help of the Chinese Air Force, Japan drew a relatively complete map of Alaska, including not only basic cities and divisions, but also various highlands, and the entire defense line of Juno was built on this basis.

It is precisely because of the map drawn before, the accurate map does not need to be re-searched, and the valley through the Rocky Mountains is found in it, the entire Rocky Mountains, stretching for thousands of kilometers, are the largest mountain ranges in the whole of North America, but he is not all continuous, in the mountains, there are canyons, even if the terrain is a little higher, it can be used for the army to pass, and looking for a circle in it, it can be used by tanks to pass through the mountain canyons, at least more than 20.

In fact, if you detour 1200 kilometers from the safest degree, crossing from the northernmost canyon is the safest, there is absolutely no one there, even in Alaska, it is the northernmost part, where the climate is harsh, at least 1500 kilometers from the ocean, in this case, just after the summer, it is a north wind one after another, and the temperature will continue to drop, which was inaccessible before, and now it is even more so.

And after passing through which valley, it is the Canadian snowfield, the population is less, and there will be almost no problems, but the cherry blossom plan will choose here unless it is completely brainless, from Juneau to the farthest valley, 1200 kilometers, so down, the round trip is 2400 kilometers, according to the average speed of 30 kilometers per hour, 10 hours a day, it will take 8 days, God knows how many variables will appear, 2400 kilometers, has accounted for half of the long-distance 5000 kilometers, the variables in between, I don't know how much.

For Japan, the sooner it enters the United States, the higher the probability of the success of the plan, during this time, the Japanese reconnaissance unit and the Chinese reconnaissance plane, all the canyons within the 300-kilometer range around Juneau, have carried out a carpet reconnaissance, has formed a series of plans, Kawasaki Meijing used to be the final plan, there is less than a month to go, want to come to the tank division, the basic driving and operation, should have been carried out almost, it is time to start targeted arrangements.

On the frontal battlefield, the smoke of gunpowder has not completely dissipated, and today is another routine attack by the US military, at least 300 tanks, divided into different areas, to attack Japan, such an offensive is started almost every three days, and the specific direction of attack is also random on the US side, and the Japanese side can only be exhausted to deal with it, and under the comprehensive deployment, it has suffered a lot of losses.

When Kawasaki Meijing approached, a front-line officer came to report that Japan seemed to have the upper hand a little today, destroying 60 tanks, repelling 17 attacks by the US army, paying the price of two positions, and ending today's one-day attack and defense, which is probably the best performance of Japan in the past 7 attacks and defenses.

60 tanks, obviously, there will be a lot of repairs, modifications into the Kawasaki scenery of the team, the US military has learned smart, will only use a small number of tanks to probe, encroach, and not a large-scale charge, let this time, the number of tanks captured is very small, almost a month, only 500, today's 60, is already a lot, even if 20% of the repair is unfavorable, there are almost 12, better than nothing.

Because of the attack of the American army, Japan was losing ground one after another, and itself, the defensive line around Juneau, was almost a circular range of 120 kilometers in diameter, More than 15,000 square kilometers of defense area, Japan has arranged more than 2 million people, as well as a huge scale of fortifications and almost countless bunkers, but unfortunately under the gradual attack of the United States, step by step was encroached, the US army's troops, has also reached the range of 20 kilometers from Juneau, the nearest place is less than 17 kilometers away from Juneau, compared to the highest time, shrunk by more than two-thirds, only less than 3,500 square kilometers of the area, even the Japanese infantry has been reduced to 1.5 million, the rest, either eliminated, or withdrawn to the second and third line of defense.

After all, a million-sized army is not crowded together, it can play a role, the troops must be deployed, and they must be reasonably distributed on the front-line positions, and the positions have shrunk by two-thirds, even if so many troops are arranged, they cannot strengthen the thickness of the defense line, but because a large number of soldiers are concentrated together, they are easy to be damaged by artillery attacks.

From the very beginning of 60 or 70 kilometers away, to the present, although part of the farthest line of defense, there are still 30 kilometers, but the nearest line of defense is less than 17 kilometers, and the 30 kilometers of defense line has become a separate salient, and the focus of today's US attack is here.

This point is not only known to the US military, but also to Japan, and the US military will definitely focus on this side to surprise the attack, so Japan has arranged a little ambush here, coupled with the advance of the rear strategic artillery fire, which is very unexpected by the United States, not only so that the US military's strategic artillery fire has been suppressed, but the density of a large number of individual tank trenches and rocket launchers at close range has also exceeded the average density of the Japanese defense line.

However, such a move, can only be used once, this attack, almost this line of defense to smash, to the US army caused huge damage, but also exhausted the last trace of vitality of this line of defense, after today's battle, Japan will give up this line of defense, as one of the most important fulcrums on the periphery, itself should continue to hold on, but now it has to give up, less of this fulcrum, the US military once again took a big step forward, it can be said unceremoniously, the US army's long-range artillery fire, If it is at the forefront of the American front, it can already hit the city of Juno.

For siege, long-range artillery bombardment, this is the best method, this is useless, if Alaska is the mainland of Japan, no matter how difficult it is, the United States will bring heavy artillery over, for the shelling of a regional city, the psychological blow to the defenders is huge, to a certain extent, just by virtue of this, maybe it can give Juno's defense line a heavy blow, and may even weaken the strength of the city under the premise of occupying a certain advantage.

But now, the United States also knows that Juno is just an ornament, just a connector used by Japan with the help of the surrounding geographical advantages, and it has no role in itself, and there are not even many garrisons, so it is not much to fight Juno, and it is better to gradually take the position with the help of encroachment on the peripheral positions.

When Kawasaki Meijing arrived at the front point, he happened to meet the liaison officer Zhang Tianyou of the Chinese side, understood his intention, and immediately let him into the camp tent, and took out the final result, a total of three passages, about 120 kilometers, 150 kilometers and 160 kilometers from Juno's side, it can't be considered close, if it's too close, there will be U.S. troops, even if the U.S. troops don't guard these valleys, after passing, it is easy to meet U.S. troops, after all, U.S. troops are on the Alaska front, at least 4 million, Even if they are all concentrated within a 70-kilometer radius around Alaska, it is a 100-kilometer area, which is basically a forbidden area.

Only 100 kilometers away is relatively safe, and even in order to ensure safety, two sets of plans have been designed, one is to pass through the day, that is, through reconnaissance planes, reconnaissance around at least 30 kilometers, without any people and troops under the premise of the other is to choose a more suitable valley, take advantage of the night to pass, at night when the radar does not appear, it is a natural shield, even if it is a dense defense line, it is possible to pass directly, not to mention that the US military has no defense line at all.

The three passages, according to the day and night, plus some other concerns, the whole plan has at least 17, gathered together, thick, Kawasaki beautiful view thanked Zhang Tianyou, and then took these plans back to study carefully.

Zhang Tianyou has actually done a certain tendency above, that is, which valley is the best of 150 kilometers, not only the terrain is relatively flat, 7 tanks can pass at one time, the entire valley is only about 3 kilometers long, the surrounding dense forest distribution, easy to hide during the day, at night, up to 3 hours of time, you can walk through this valley, and then go forward about 180 kilometers, there are at least 12 roads to choose from, all are dense forest distribution, easy to hide, you can say unceremoniously, As long as you pass through any valley at night, the sea is wide and the fish jumps.
