Chapter 1801: Successful Breakthrough
Jiang Bo has rich experience, but when he encountered a big river like the Missouri River, he also had some headaches, to be honest, along the way, there were not many times to build bridges, this time it was only the fifth time, but he gained a lot, compared with the war, many of the subjects in the exercise are much weaker, it is not that China has no knowledge, no matter how in-depth the exercise, no matter how reluctant the script, compared with the real war, there are still some differences, some things, it seems that it should be related to the war, but in fact, these have little to do with the war, At most, it can only be regarded as dabbling, and what really needs to be strained, but it will be reflected in the war, and these will never be known without going through the real war.

Passing by different rivers along the way, whether it is a big river or a small stream, Jiang Bo will seriously consider what method to use to build a boat bridge will be better, several attempts to do, he has done his best, and therefore absorbed a lot of experience, for this bridge, he is full of confidence.
14 places, it took more than 1 hour, or the result of being divided into several groups, if Jiang Bo himself was asked to go around, it might not be enough for one night, he just went to a few of the most difficult places to analyze, and the rest was handed over to his subordinates, although these people did not have a high position, but along the way, they also learned a lot, and they may not be able to act independently, but they can analyze the location.
The radio quickly summarized the actual situation of these locations to Jiang Bo, Jiang Bo's expression was slightly dignified, he was ready to build 12 bridges at once, but unfortunately through some exploration, there were only 8 positions that were most suitable for building bridges, and the 14 goals made before all had such and such problems, air observation, after all, could not consolidate the observation of the bottom of the river, and there was a little problem at the bottom of the river, and the boat bridge could not be erected.
Fortunately, this is not a big problem, among the 8 locations, not every one can be built, through comparison, the best of the best, selected six of them as the construction site of the boat bridge. That is to say, during the daytime the next day, these boats and bridges that have been built will bear at least 700 vehicles, and at most 1100 vehicles will undertake the task of passing, and according to the river and depending on the situation, the size of the bridge is also different, the largest, in fact, is still in the location where they are stationed,
There are only 6 bridges, not 10, they even have the strength to strengthen the strength, this is indeed the best one among the several places to cross the river, and it can be assumed that there are two bridges, the boat bridge troops are for the service of tanks, and it can be assumed that two bridges can be assumed, which means that the traffic capacity of this one bridge is far above the other bridges, and this is also the main place to cross the river.
One by one, folding boats were put into the Missouri River, and the positioning of the technical position was completed through positioning, and then began to be spliced, a huge long bridge, began to be built gradually, all kinds of materials, all matched to the top, forming a bridge that can withstand the passage of 20-ton tanks, although the maximum load capacity of this bridge can allow 5 two tanks to be on it, but the speed of a tank, the passage of this bridge is not slow.
These boats are carried on armored vehicles, and in normal times, when folded, they occupy a small space, but when used, they are opened to form a hollow boat, which is enough to bear huge buoyancy.
These are the foundations for the construction of the bridge, and these ships serve as the base of the entire bridge, and then the steel plates and contacts will be laid on it, and finally a bridge will be at least 6 meters wide and 500 meters long for the tank troops of tomorrow to pass.
If it's just infantry, the pontoon bridge is OK, the tank is different, the tank with a weight of about 20 tons, the bridge has high requirements for the bearing capacity, this part of the material, of course, can not be carried directly, if a bridge is just a basic ship, it may only be about 1 ton, but above, the bridge that can withstand the strength of several tanks, its own weight is more than 50 tons, or even more than 100 tons, of course, such materials can not be carried with the convoy, will be dropped by airdrop, 7 bridges, That is, 700 tons, today is the last day of the final battle, and today there are at least 150 strategic transport planes, transporting about 4,000 tons of materials.
As for the erection, there is no way, it is impossible for the convoy to carry so many things, and it is not possible to pass through the Missouri River every day, such a heavy thing, it may only be able to be used once or twice, of course, it is impossible to carry it with you, and after the use is completed, it is basically buried on the spot, or sunk into the river, and it will not be carried away.
After determining the location, Jiang Bo ordered his subordinates to start the operation, throughout the night, 2,700 personnel belonging to the Zhouqiao troops, began the intense work, they must be tonight, the completion of the construction of the Zhouqiao, no later than tomorrow morning, and then will be a few hours of crossing the bridge, and after the bridge, the armored troops crossing the river, need to rest not far from the front, after entering the United States, the last rest, and then after the Dengzhouqiao troops catch up, it is the time to really set off, after allNext, when you enter the central hinterland of the United States, you will also encounter some small rivers, perhaps not as big as the Missouri River, but you will need a bridge force.
After the rest is completed, it will be the same as today, all the way to the 600 kilometers of trekking, directly plugging into the Pacific Railroad, completing the biggest goal of the Sakura Project, cutting off this unprecedented railway, and reaching the ultimate goal of the Sakura Project.
According to today's efficiency, along the way, although the last 600 kilometers are a little difficult, but it is not difficult to achieve the goal at all, the Missouri River, is already in front of the cherry blossom plan, the last level, as long as you pass here, next, can stop them, there are really not many,
From almost 12 o'clock to build the bridge, at least 6 sections of the construction at the same time, in the cold and turbulent river, in the initial can not fix the bridge, the soldiers must go into the water, when a rope, through the help of the bridge, fixed to the two banks, the bridge is gradually connected together.
This is just a preliminary construction, the real laying is still above, you need to wait until the airdrop steel skeleton and keel down, it can be regarded as the real completion of the construction of the boat bridge, the current boat bridge, at best, can barely allow the infantry to pass, in fact, at night, there is already a squadron of infantry, through this across the Missouri River, they are the vanguard of the entire new army, responsible for going to the border on the other side of the river and building positions, this is in the United States, who knows if it will be attacked when crossing the river tomorrow, near the Missouri River, The density of the population was higher than before, at least in the area where they crossed the river, and there were villages in the surrounding 40 kilometers.
At about half past 1 o'clock in the morning, the airdropped plane arrived at the empty area, which is more than 10 kilometers away from the river, the radio locator has already been placed, and through the lights and other signals, guidance, similar airdrop operations, has been done 7 times, night operations have also been 4 times, so it is very smooth, when a large number of steel plates are transported up by armored vehicles, the construction of the bridge is obviously much faster, a piece of steel plates, through the connection, laid on the bridge, a bridge that can pass tanks, gradually completed.
From more than 3 o'clock to 5 o'clock, Jiang Bo was on the front line, monitoring the work under his hands, the progress of the work made him satisfied, the entire boat bridge took 6 hours to build, at about 6 o'clock, the entire Missouri River 35 kilometers range, built 7 boat bridges.
When one of the boat-bridge troops, weighing about 21 tons of armored vehicles, under the illumination of the nascent sun, was the first to pass through the Missouri River, and also announced the opening of the river crossing, Kawasaki Meijing had been waiting for this moment for a long time, came before dawn, and repeatedly confirmed that it was passable, and the river crossing began, divided into several parts of the new army, and after building the boat bridge, it successfully broke through the Missouri River.
A river that was enough to bother them was easily broken through by them, and it only took one day, and the time to build the bridge was only 8 hours, 7 boat bridges, each of which could be used by 5 tanks at the same time, even if the tank crossed the bridge, it was not at the highest speed, 35 kilometers, and at least 20 kilometers, so that the time for a tank to pass was 1.5 minutes, and at the same time 5 tanks, which means that at least 21 tanks spent every minute.
5,000 tanks, almost more than 4 hours, of which it is impossible to be so efficient at all times, and the personnel of each bridge are not even, and finally the river crossing operation that began at more than 6 o'clock in the morning finally ended after more than 6 hours, and at about 1 o'clock in the afternoon, the river crossing was all over.
The new 1st Army, which had already crossed the Missouri River, made a temporary repair in a mountainous area, and from about two or three o'clock in the afternoon to the next day, it took half a day and a night to complete the repair process, and at night, it would receive supplies, and on the basis of yesterday, it received enough ammunition, so it can be said that the troops were strong.
Crossing the Missouri River, now, from Salt Lake City, at most more than 600 kilometers, for the tank, full march, only 20 hours to reach Salt Lake City, the entire cherry blossom plan, also to the final moment, that is to say, according to the cherry blossom plan, the last 600 kilometers, is the whole march, with one day, a maximum of 2 days, break through 600 kilometers, in the middle, not in the detour, except to avoid some node cities, whether it is a village or a settlement, Rush all the way through, without worrying about what the hell will go wrong.
Because of this, they need to rest for a day and a night, after all, the 10-day march is also a big test for the new army, during this time, exhaustion and some other negative emotions are a lot, and they must take a rest before it is time to attack.
