The enemy was not in a hurry to chase after Lin Daxin's plan failed, and considering that there were always such and such accidents in naval battles, and most of the ammunition of the two ships had been used up, in the end he still chose to withdraw from the battlefield with some regret, and at the same time sent a good news to the flagship, which was already quite far away. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

The sudden acceleration of the departure of the two Chinese light cruisers towards the south somewhat surprised the commander of the American detachment, but this did not affect the judgment of Vice Admiral William Soden Sims, but made him feel that the two Chinese warships were deliberately misleading him by heading south. Well, the two Chinese light cruisers were indeed headed south to mislead the Americans, but the target of the Chinese expeditionary fleet was really not the Florida Peninsula in the northeast of the Gulf of Mexico, but Mexico in the west......

True, the landing site chosen by the Chinese Marines was not in the United States at all, but in its southern neighbor Mexico, which was heavily criticized by the Western media after the war, but everyone had to admit that, at least militarily, it was a clever move......

The reason why it has to pay a serious impact on the international image (in fact, if you look at it from another angle, it is just to confirm part of the accusations of the Western media. The purpose is actually to grab time, and the blame can only be blamed on the East Coast of the United States (broadly, including the Gulf Coast. The terrain is disgusting.

Not only here, but also on the east coast of Mexico in the south, there are lagoons that are rare in East Asia, and the Americans have artificially modified them to connect the island arcs separated by sea water into a complete strip of sandy sandbanks. In this way, because there are these slender sandbars outside, the landing fleet wants to directly land on the land on the east coast of the United States, and can only enter through those entrances close to the harbors, not to mention that the American fleet is still there, even if the Chinese navy has completely seized the sea supremacy, it will have to break through the coastal fortresses and mine arrays of the US military......

Of course, this does not mean that it is completely impossible to land, and theoretically the troops could land at Long Beach first, and then transport personnel and supplies through the not wide lagoon by means of ants in light rubber boats, and then land again. Even if the Chinese Navy has a special landing ship that has been successfully developed in advance, it will take at least more than a month to complete the landing, and because of the limited capacity of rubber boats, it is impossible to send large troops and heavy weapons ashore before taking a port.

Therefore, this method must be carried out only on the premise of complete control of the sea, otherwise the enemy's navy, no matter how slow it may react, will certainly have time to rush to the landing site and bomb the landing ships, most of which have not had time to unload their personnel and munitions. However, now that Li Hui is making full use of the favorable situation created by the Heavenly Punishment Column in the hinterland of the United States to make trouble in the Heavenly Palace, and is not prepared to launch this landing campaign when the navy seizes sea supremacy, this road cannot be taken at all.

Just when the top brass of the Navy was helpless, Feng Yuxiang, the "defective general" in history, showed for the first time in this time and space that he did not take the rules of the industry seriously at all, and to some extent was very "lawless", and he proposed a new plan that surprised everyone, "Since the East Coast of the United States is not easy to land, then borrow from Mexico!" Moreover, the eastern border between the two countries is flat and undefendable, even if the US military builds a defensive line, it will definitely not be able to stop our attack, and I think the Americans' defense in this direction should not be too strong, in fact, it should be easier to fight......"

Someone immediately questioned it, saying that the east coast of Mexico is also the same terrain, and then saw Feng Yuxiang frowning, and his expression seemed to say, "How did such a stupid brain rise to this position?" Then he sighed lightly and pointed out a fundamental difference between the two, "Yes, if it is going to land and fight, it will be the same trouble, but we are not at war with Mexico, and the lagoons in Mexico are not mined, and the entrance is completely open, our fleet can drive directly into it, and the landing will definitely be faster if it is not at war...... It's just a pity that there is no decent seaport in the northeast of Mexico, otherwise it would be more convenient......"

Every officer of the Expeditionary Fleet was stunned when they heard this, and the despised general couldn't help but roar, "Aren't you violating the sovereignty of Mexico?" What if Mexico is forced over to the U.S.? Do you know what international law is? ”

"International law? That's just Western international law, and we're not Western countries, so there's no need to follow their rules. Feng Yuxiang said disapprerovingly, "As for Mexico forcing the Americans?" The United States has bullied Mexico like that for so many years, and I have never seen them go to war with the United States, do you think they will have the courage to go to war with us who have already pinned the Americans to the ground and beat them violently because of a single excuse? Not to mention that the anti-American consciousness in Mexico has been rising, maybe there will be many Mexicans who will eat pot pulp to welcome the king! ”

As the commander of the Eastern Expeditionary Fleet, Yang Yonglin was very self-aware and understood that he was not proficient in land warfare, and the new plan proposed by Feng Yuxiang no longer only involved military aspects, but must have the cooperation of the diplomatic department, so he took advantage of the opportunity of the maintenance of the warship in San Francisco to send an encrypted telegram to China, asking Li Hui, the head of state, to make a decision.

"This is like a 'defective general', I thought that after the growth environment of this time and space changed, Feng Yuxiang had transformed into a good boy and a good student!" Li Hui couldn't help but laugh as soon as he saw the translated message, but he did not negate Feng Yuxiang's battle plan because of this, because of the mistake of abolishing things, he has always been the most opposed.

"The implementation of such a combat plan will definitely affect our international image, but even if we don't, how much better can our international image be? Different economic systems, different races, and different cultures doom us to be regarded as our own by the Western countries as Europe does with the United States, and then our development potential and speed are so terrifying, and it is strange that the West does not demonize us. Li Hui couldn't help but smile and shake his head when he saw the points of view mentioned in the telegram questioning the combat plan. (To be continued.) )
