Chapter 287: The Death of the Commander
Of course, the people of the United States are not ready to buy chasing the wind to go to the battlefield, they bought it for the Navy as an imaginary enemy squadron, and by the way, study the aircraft manufacturing technology of the Ming Dynasty to see how it can help them, especially the Sea Saber project that the North American company is doing.
It really doesn't work, so let the North American companies copy it.
In that case, it's not a big deal!
Selling, chasing the wind is not a big deal, it is nothing more than the use of titanium alloy, and the addition of a few composite parts, and the body mechanism is basically made of new aluminum alloy.
The people of the United States can only stare dryly when they buy this thing.
They have titanium alloys, they also have composite materials, but they can't afford to use them, there is no large-scale industrial production capacity, and 80% of the country's titanium alloys will be used to make a super saber, and composite materials are still in the manual manufacturing stage. As for the new aluminum alloy, it is not a piece of aluminum alloy that can be studied how to manufacture, even if the element composition can be analyzed, the new production process can not be analyzed, in the production of these new materials, usually the latter is the most important, and even the temperature is slightly worse The performance is a world of difference.
And the Tamron II engine is not a big deal, Rolls-Roy has already upgraded Evan to the 200 series, and the maximum thrust is even higher than that of Tamron II, even if he doesn't sell Tamron II, the people of the United States still buy Evan, in fact, the jet engine of the United States is basically all bought in Britain and then imitated and developed.
In fact, at this time, Yang Feng realized that he still underestimated the scientific and technological strength of Europe and the United States, especially Luo Luo, who used high-temperature nickel-based powder alloys. Investment casting. CNC machine tools have been added to this bunch of plug-ins. It's only a slight advantage.
The normal thrust of the Tamron III engine is 5.7 tons, and the afterburner thrust is 7.9 tons, which can indeed be said to be the best at this time, but the normal thrust of Rowrow's Evan has reached 4.8 tons, although the United States is backward, the J40 engine of the little devil and the J57 engine prepared for F8 have a normal thrust of more than four tons.
Well, at this time, the jet engine in the United States is actually quite backward.
Of course, selling is selling. This kind of one-hammer sale cannot be sold less, no matter how it is not lower than the Gauls, a hundred is the minimum.
On this issue, Johnson didn't care, anyway, everyone knows what the situation of this deal is, even if Yang Feng's offer is one-third higher than that sold to the Gauls, he also has nothing to say, after all, Yang Fuhrer also said that if you want to deliver the goods within a year, you can only increase the price.
As for the King of Goryeo, Truman finally chose to accept it. Although Syngman Rhee publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with the United States for the first time in a frustrated manner, it still did not change the reality.
Because it's not just front-line pressure at this time. Almost all allies, including Britain, Gaul, the Netherlands, Australia, etc., demanded that Syngman Rhee put the overall situation first, put aside the matter between him and Li Jiu and unanimously confront the enemy, and the British government even claimed that if Syngman Rhee did not agree, they would send their own warships to pick up His Majesty's troops to the front.
Yang Feng's statement is very effective, since he is determined to praise the king of Goryeo this time, then Britain and other countries, of course, are willing to give him face in this matter, in the end, no matter what the result here is, it has nothing to do with them, they will pat the pi shares and leave after this battle, no matter how you make trouble in the future, it is only right to pull a support army over now.
In this way, the army of His Majesty the King of Goryeo was officially added to the combat system of the coalition forces.
Then Dayuanjun led the 1st Brigade of the Royal Goryeo Army, riding a warrior military vehicle, an M35 truck, wearing a camouflage combat uniform of the Ming army, a Kevlar helmet, a Type 46 automatic rifle, a Type 46 general-purpose machine gun, dragging various artillery, and carrying a bazooka to the north for reinforcements.
Immediately after that, His Majesty the King of Goryeo personally drove the expedition and landed at Mokpo Harbor on a Royal Navy warship, leading the 2nd Brigade of the Royal Goryeo Army that remained behind, ready to provide reinforcements at any time.
Uh, where did this second brigade come from?
Quite simply, this is the original 1st Brigade.
As for the 1st Brigade that followed Dayuan Jun to the north, it was actually the two battalions of the original 1st Brigade, plus thousands of locally recruited recruits, and the real main force was all in Mokpo Port!
Li Jiu is not stupid, he sent troops for show, how could he send the real elite of his subordinates to the battlefield as cannon fodder, get a group of real cannon fodder to go north, and it is only right for him to take the main force to grab the territory in the back, he really wants to send the main force to the battlefield, and he will still play a fart after the first war is over.
Yang Feng gave him a division of munitions, but because he couldn't afford it, he only built a brigade, and now he just happened to make another brigade as cannon fodder, followed by two battalions of elites, to ensure that his father would not die on the battlefield.
And he led the really elite Second Brigade, Lai in Mokpo Port, put on the face of the King of Goryeo to win the hearts of the people, visited the lonely and widowed elderly, gave candy to children, and personally gave speeches at school.
Even under the escort of the army, he rode the open-top El Dorado presented to him by Yang Fuhrer, and went directly to Naju and Gwangju to inspect it, and in the people kneeling down along the way, he looked like a king returning to the posture, which made Syngman Rhee angry and helpless, in short, His Majesty the King of Goryeo was in Jeollanam-do.
Not only did he rely there, but he also really regarded it as his own territory, such as personally inviting the merchants of the Ming Empire to invest and open factories in this area.
However, the reinforcements of His Majesty the King of Goryeo were still a little late, and before the 1st Brigade of the Royal Army led by Daewonjun could reach Inchon in a show of royal prestige all the way, the defense line of the coalition army on the demarcation line had already been broken through by the volunteers.
"Will, hurry up! Damn, these idiots, they're just a bunch of Italians who don't do anything but do bad things. ”
On the highway north of Seoul, several military vehicles were driving rapidly, and in the middle of a Willis jeep, a strong, very old officer urged the driver with an angry face, and on the steel helmet above his head, three generals were also printed on the sign in front of the car.
Lieutenant General.
Lieutenant General Walker, the actual supreme commander of the U.S. forces in the Goryeo battlefield, should indeed be angry at this time, the defense line of the South Goryeo Army on the demarcation line was almost at the touch of a button, and there was no real battle at all, it collapsed under the impact of the Volunteer Army, and even their rout even broke the American troops on the second line of defense, and now the entire north of Seoul was completely disrupted.
Walker, the bulldog who was accustomed to being on the front line, was rushing to the Ui government, where the 24th Division of the US Army was on the line, but under the onslaught of a large number of South Goryeo troops pouring in from the north to the south, there were already signs of rout before he saw the enemy.
As Patton's number one general at the time, he really couldn't stay in the headquarters in Seoul.
The tiny Willis Jeep, speeding on a road that had been dilapidated by repeated tug-of-wars, could soon see the fiery red in the north, and even the explosion of large-caliber shells could be faintly discerned.
Walker frowned, it is obvious that the offensive of the Volunteer Army is extremely ferocious, and they are the absolute main force, whether this cannon is the M40 self-propelled gun of the US Army, or the 160 heavy PAI artillery of the Volunteer Army, it means that both sides have used the heaviest weapons.
"Look, General!"
His driver suddenly exclaimed.
Walker looked ahead, his nose almost crooked, and a group of routs of the South Korean Army were walking south in despair.
"Bastard, who is your commander, go back, go back, go back to your posts!"
Walker ordered the driver to get to the front, then stood up and shouted with his fist in the car.
However, the routs of the South Korean Army just looked up at him, ignoring the general above him, and then lowered their heads and continued to walk south, and behind these routs, there were more routs appearing, under the light of the night car lights, like a group of walking zombies, and there were even many officers inside, and Lieutenant General Walker even saw a major inside.
Of course, the major also ignored him, the will of these South Korean troops has been completely destroyed, all they can think of now is to flee south, who will care about an old man's quarrel, and who knows what he says, of course poor Lieutenant General Walker can't speak Goryeo, his driver won't either, and neither will the communication soldiers around him, of course, even if he will, it's useless, at this time, even Syngman Rhee can't stop the rout of the soldiers.
"Damn, hurry up!"
Lieutenant General Walker sat down helplessly and said to the driver.
The latter slammed on the accelerator, and little Willis Jeep jumped directly next to the rout, and then turned at the foot of the hill in front, but at this moment, a dazzling light suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Damn it!"
The driver screamed and slammed the steering wheel to try to dodge, but the speed of both sides was too fast, and at the moment when the front of Willis's car turned, the light came to him, Lieutenant General Walker subconsciously raised his hand, and almost at the same time heard a bang, and then he felt that he was being pushed hard, and the whole person immediately flew upside down, and the next moment he didn't know anything.
A minute later, a South Korean officer trembled and walked out of the stopped M35 truck, and the soldiers in the car behind him also got out of the car, looking at the Willis Jeep who was knocked into the air one by one, and Lieutenant General Walker who hit a rock after landing on the ground, blood was flowing under his head, and not far away was his steel helmet, the three stars on it were extremely dazzling in the light, and the South Korean officer sat directly on the ground with weak legs.
Ten minutes later, Lieutenant General Walker, the supreme commander of the U.S. Army on the battlefield in Goryeo, the commander of the Eighth Army, died on the way to the hospital. (To be continued.) )
