Chapter 1760: The Cherry Blossoms Open

In this way, under the situation that the Americans were unable to attack and the Japanese fixed defense, in July, the most suitable month for attacking, Juno's front line fell into calm, if it were not for the artillery fire of both sides, there would be a sporadic attack every day, which could be regarded as a state of maintenance attack, but in fact, it could already be an armistice, because there was not even a company, or even a platoon-level infantry attack, and the daily artillery fire was only a few hundred rounds, as if it was declaring a certain meaning.

The Americans are helpless, the anti-aircraft machine gun is indisputably powerful, guarding the last part of the entire Juno, if the Americans use human lives and tanks to experiment, perhaps under the premise of paying a certain price, the United States can experiment, in such a huge battlefield of 7 kilometers, there are only 200 anti-aircraft machine guns, although the power of anti-aircraft machine guns is huge, but the number is too small, the Americans use the method of infantry coordination, if it is a dense charge of tanks, when the number of tanks exceeds 3000In fact, when killing nearly a thousand tanks of the US army, China's anti-aircraft machine guns have basically reached the limit, and the armor-piercing bullets fired at high speed have a huge blow to the barrel, and if they continue, there will be problems with the barrel. The consequences can be imagined.

The order of the American base camp, coupled with the magical effect of the anti-aircraft machine gun, finally made the United States not dare to try, 200 anti-aircraft machine guns finally saved Juno, so that Juno spent the whole month smoothly, both sides were almost very calm, and the fixed artillery battle every day made the casualties not even one, so that the United States glared angrily, but for the soldiers on the front line, it was a great good thing, they did not have to risk their lives to storm the position, and they did not have to charge in the rain of bullets, It would be nice to build a defensive line and prepare for an attack.

Although there are still some artillery bombardments every day, the number of artillery attacking is too small compared to the area of tens of square kilometers in the core, and the US troops are also in the shadows, maintaining the intensity of their attacks, and basically there are no targets.

The Japanese are very disciplined, and they have proved through facts that defense is really very important to them, and on the premise of abandoning Juno, they are also working hard to build a more complete and solid position at any given time, and it is with this effort that Japan can block the footsteps of the American attack on Juno's side.

In such a calm, time passed slowly, and Japan completed the final preparations for the Sakura Project, and finally a total of more than 5,000 armored forces, all of them were trained to a considerable level, maintaining a strong fighting spirit, and could set off at any time, and the departure time was also set for August 1.

This time is not too late, it is two or three months away from the winter in Alaska, not to mention the United States, which is a little further south and has a more suitable climate, if the armor can really fight in the United States for a long time, it will definitely be able to leave a strong mark in the history of world wars.

August 1, 1917, the first day of this August, is also the day of the implementation of the Sakura Plan, which is also determined again and again before, and the final determination will not be too hasty or too slow, Japan barely relied on anti-aircraft machine guns to block the Americans' troops, but the actions of the Americans still make Japan a little worried, if the United States continues to try, it means that the United States has not yet found a way to break through the defense line, they are safe. Now the Americans don't make any moves, it's not that the Americans are lazy, the enemy always knows each other best, the United States and Japan are like this, even if there are only a few months of fighting, but the two sides have put up a confrontation of millions of troops on Juno's side, both sides have their own tricks, and they both have some understanding of each other's resilience, how can such a powerful United States give up in the Americas.

Compared with the United States, which does not know the performance of anti-aircraft machine guns, Japan still understands them, and China has also generously told Japan about the advantages and disadvantages of anti-aircraft machine guns, and after telling Japan about them, Japan was taken aback, anti-aircraft machine guns can only fire 150 armor-piercing shells in a row, once they exceed 150 rounds, the anti-aircraft machine gun may have problems, and even blow up the chamber, in this sense, even if 10 rounds kill a tank, this is already an extremely high probability, more than 2 kilometers of range, one-tenth of the destruction rate, This has increased the hit rate of anti-aircraft machine guns to a very high level, but in this way, 200 anti-aircraft machine guns are fully functional, and they can only destroy 3,000 tanks, which means that as long as more than 3,000 tanks are attacked, the entire position is very dangerous.

The United States does not have 3,000 tanks, there are at least more than 20,000 tanks on the entire Juno's front line, and even more than a week ago, before the tactics of infantry and tank coordination were not used, the US army was still similar to a large-scale charge, using 6,000 or even 8,000 tanks at one time, abounding.

Japan is very afraid that the United States will use the same method to attack their defense line, in this way, even if the anti-aircraft machine guns are desperate, their defense line will be lost little by little, and when the anti-aircraft machine guns are threatened, according to the pre-war agreement, the Chinese soldiers must retreat, and China can only participate in the war under the premise of safety and security, and when the United States chooses to saturate the attack, the role that the anti-aircraft machine guns can play is very small and close to zero, and it is almost necessary to retreat.

The Japanese are aware of this and are worried, but their worries did not come true in the end, the United States was blocked by anti-aircraft machine guns in the core of Juno, only one kick away, you can take Juno, but it was blocked here, a quiet month, at first Japan was really a little worried, but gradually, with the passage of time, Japan became more and more assured, and now it is time to implement the Sakura plan, Juno will no longer matter, even 200 anti-aircraft machine guns, It will also gradually retreat after the departure of Kawasaki Meijing's troops, and the entire core area of Juno will only leave a small part of the army's bluff.

Kawasaki Meijing's armored convoy set off at night, but during the day, in Juneau, Japan has begun to gradually retreat, itself during the limit period, Juneau's defense line, almost concentrated 3.5 million troops, with the loss of positions step by step, from the original dozens of kilometers of a huge area, narrowed to 7 kilometers, the position has been reduced by more than half of the people, and now, in the beginning of August 1, the large-scale retreat has begun.

Now, in addition to sacrifice and retreat, full of calculations, on the entire position, there are only 300,000 people, and the rest have retreated secretly through tunnels, for before, 300,000 people bluffed 1.5 million, and may not be able to resist the offensive of the American army, but now, as long as there is a tentative attack, even the infantry has not been sent.

Because of this, the opposing US positions did not notice this at all, one by one the positions were emptied, and the rest were the most core, and even the power anti-aircraft machine guns that the US forces have always feared were gradually reduced from 200, probably later today, to not one left, and then there were only 300,000 people on the entire position, and with the passage of time, as long as the US troops do not continue to attack, these troops will gradually decrease, and in the end it will reach about 100,000 people.

The reason why it is not reduced to less than 100,000 people is very simple, the protective area within a radius of 7 kilometers, even if the other side does not attack, the positions of the two sides are almost close at hand, even if they are hiding in the position, when the number of people is really small to a certain extent, the other party will definitely feel that although for Japan, 100,000 people are not particularly important, but if the US army charges, 100,000 people may not even be able to escape 10,000 people, which is unacceptable to Japan, even if it is a performance, it must drag on for enough time, Once winter arrives, it may drag on beyond the time of 1917, and Japan will even risk increasing its troops.

To the north of Juneau, the Sakura plan tank division base is divided into 3 divisions, a brigade, and a supplementary maintenance division, including a huge armored force, with a total of 4,383 tanks, 1,120 armored vehicles, and a total of more than 5,500 armored vehicles.

Kawasaki Meijing and his men, the longest training here has been more than 2 months, according to the final formation, this unit is organized as a new tank army, with an independent establishment and military flag, even if they are completely wiped out in this operation in the American hinterland, Japan will rebuild this unit, as the seed of the armored force.

Everyone has been waiting for this moment for a long time, but during the day, the barracks no longer have the hot scene before, but a silence, and they are about to set off at night, which is very dangerous and memorable, and tonight will march continuously for one night, and the distance they travel at night determines their safety.

Under the cover of night, the new army set off quietly, they had already explored the road in advance, some unsuitable rivers and the like, and also made pre-arrangements, they would be at a speed of about 30 kilometers, with 5 hours, into the valley of the Rocky Mountains, and then pass over, to arrive at the first camp about 70 kilometers away from the mountain pass, in the middle of which will continue to travel more than 210 kilometers, it will take 8 to 10 hours, from 8 o'clock at night, to about 6 o'clock the next day, It's a night's journey to-night, and they'll make sure they're going to do it all the way around the night when they're not in Canada's no-man's land.
