Amid the explosion of artillery shells, Major General Duan Congde climbed into a shell and held a telescope to carefully observe the movements of the US troops. The fierce battle of the www.biquge.info three days has made the Anhui major general Donghua black and thin. It's just that his eyes are still a little sharp. This crater was slightly modified and became the headquarters of his 140th Regiment. Now he is personally sitting here, and he has sent the commander of the 140th regiment to the front line. This is also a matter of no choice, who let the former enemy headquarters of King Jujuan of Donghua be in Lancaster, which is not far from here? If he has to make a mistake here, King Zhu will face the offensive of the American army!

The dust from the shells hit him in the face, but he didn't care. In the telescope, a large US attack column has been seen assembled and is forming a stormtroop formation. On the banks of the Missouri River, there were still a regiment of troops of the US army nailed to several broken trenches, no matter how much the Donghua Army used grenades, artillery, or even bayonets to attack them, they could not drive them away, and the US troops continued to replenish their forces, but also to maintain this foothold that could accommodate several thousand people. Create conditions for a sustained onslaught of troops. The fire on both sides was still firing like a burst, and it seemed that there were plenty of shells to waste.

Li Feihu, the commander of the 140th Regiment, was carried down by several medical soldiers at this time, this man in his thirties also participated in the last North American War, and then served in the Guards in Donghua for many years, and is a well-known iron man who can fight tough battles, Zhu Juan's hope that this iron man can bring the tough style of the Guards to the second-line troops of the 45th Division, so he let him be the commander of the 140th Regiment. But now, this iron man is incomplete. Swept away by American artillery fire. A thigh was missing. I was wrapped in gauze all over my body, and I didn't know if I could live!

"Tiger, tiger, what's wrong with you!" Duan Congde pushed away the guards who were protecting him and pounced on Li Feihu's side.

Li Feihu was dying, and there was still a breath of air, maybe he had a morphine injection to relieve the pain, and this man could still laugh bitterly. said: "Commander, it's too miserable, it's really miserable...... A whole regiment, in less than two days, there is only more than one battalion left! As he spoke, he sighed again, "I, the head of the regiment, can die well, and I will be in a wheelchair for the rest of my life, but my two or three thousand brothers...... Division commander, just leave a seed for our 140th regiment! ”

Listening to Li Feihu's words, Duan Congde nodded and said continuously: "Okay." Okay, let's go down and rest today with the 140th regiment. A few hours to go! ”

At this time, the artillery bombardment of the American troops had ended, the infantry charge was about to begin, and the battlefield was a little quiet, except for the wails of the seriously wounded and dying. Li Feihu struggled to sit up, and Duan Congde hurriedly helped his old buddy. Li Feihu said loudly with all his strength: "Division Commander, I will definitely be able to see the king this time, do you want me to ask for a favor and let the 45th Division go down early?" Our division fought too hard! In three days, more than fifty charges of the Americans were repulsed. It's almost out of combat! There have been no reinforcements to replenish it, so it won't work like this! ”

Duan Congde shook his head: "Where is it not bitter!" Our 45th Division suffered heavy casualties, and the 5th Division at the Concel Bluffs bridgehead to the north suffered light casualties? They went up on August 6th, four days longer than us, and the old beauty attacked like crazy, and fought more than a hundred charges! Have they ever been miserable? There are also a few cavalry divisions that have been delayed before and the main force of the United States has fought very fiercely, and that division has no casualties of more than 30%? We're not even 30% yet, are we? Why can't you fight? Tiger, don't worry about this, go back to San Francisco to recuperate. ”

Li Feihu wanted to say something, there were already overwhelming shouts and the sound of shells whistling and exploding on the battlefield, and under the guidance of a banner of the Three Klux Klan, a regiment of the Volunteer Infantry Division of the Three Klan Party began to charge under the artillery fire of the Donghua Army! These Ku Klux Klan volunteer infantry divisions are all composed of volunteers from the Confederate countries, most of whom are veterans of the last North American war, and their combat effectiveness is very strong.

In the past three days, it was they who fought repeatedly with the 45th Division of the Donghua Army. It is almost a position filled with human lives, and while inflicting heavy casualties on the Donghua Army, it is also a dead and wounded pillow. Often, entire infantry companies and infantry battalions were completely crushed by the defenders. But new troops are still pouring upwards! In the past three days, this Ku Klux Klan volunteer infantry division has been replenished twice, and each time more than 2,000 veterans from the Union side have joined!

……

Bloodshed compared to the Chinese in 1875, which sounds like crazy. But to Henry. Bush and William. Sherman, but it wasn't without a bit of success. Because this is North America, not East Asia. If the battlefield was moved from the banks of the Missouri River to the Korean Peninsula, Henry. Bush will certainly order the withdrawal of troops without saying a word. But on the banks of the Missouri River...... Yes, the Chinese are 750 million! But in North America, they have only 18 million, while whites are above 40 million!

"Your Majesty, according to the estimates of the Army General Command, the Chinese can transport up to 150,000 troops to North America every month. If they lose more than that in North America, we'll win! ”

In the audience hall of New Windsor Castle, New York, the Prime Minister of the American Empire, Henry Brown. Bush was sitting across from Queen Victoria, who had just arrived in North America. Fingers crossed, settling accounts for the Empress and Prince Albert.

Yes, the war in North America is a simple murder math problem! As long as the speed of the losses of the Donghua Army is greater than the speed at which the Chinese can transport troops across the ocean, the victory is American!

"Eliminate more than 150,000 ...... a month," Prince Albert thought to himself, so how many Americans will die? If it's 300,000, I'm afraid that Donghua hasn't been exhausted yet, and I'm going to die first!

"Our losses should not exceed 250,000 a month," Bush said, "and this is the exchange ratio that occurs when we maintain a strategic offensive posture." We hope to exchange 250,000 men for 200,000 people in Donghua, so that they will lose 50,000 living forces every month, and even if they fully mobilize the men of Donghua to fight, they will not be able to make up for such losses. Two years at most will not be able to sustain the war! ”

Two years is 24 months, and 250,000 ...... is lost every month That's 6 million people! Prince Albert's eyelids rolled, thinking, can the two United States come up with so many soldiers to exchange with the Chinese?

"It's totally worth it to trade 6 million people for a clean North America!" Henry. Bush said lightly, "Of course, the losses of these 6 million people cannot be borne entirely by the American Empire and the Confederate States of America. ”

"But the battlefield of the British Empire is not only in North America, and now there is intelligence that the Chinese are planning to launch an attack on India and Singapore!" We must increase the defense there! Prince Albert said in a solemn tone, "Once we lose India, we may lose the entire war, and it will be difficult for North America to survive alone!" ”

Henry. Bush snorted disdainfully: "North America is the most important thing!" Because North America is the second home of whites beyond the European continent! India is a person of color after all, and we only have it for the time being...... There is no point in wasting troops there! If the British Empire needed India's wealth, it would have sold its sovereignty and land to the Indian maharajas, so that at least hundreds of millions of pounds of gold and silver could be looted.

As for Singapore, it is simply impossible to hold it, and the Chinese can send countless bayonets to Singapore, no matter how many they kill, it is useless! It's actually not bad to give the Chinese access to the Indian Ocean and Australia, at least to disperse their maritime transport capabilities. In the current situation, we do not have the strength to win on all battlefields, so we must give up something, otherwise we will lose everything! Since North America is the focus that cannot be lost, India, Southeast Asia and Australia are naturally the parts that can be abandoned! (To be continued......)
