"What do you think the Americans mean this time they want to negotiate surrender with us?" The imperial capital, Zhang Cheng's official residence. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Wang Fan, who had been busy with complicated official affairs for a long time, came to Zhang Cheng's official residence and reported to Zhang Cheng that the Americans had secretly sent liaison personnel to express their willingness to negotiate with the Ming on surrender.

"This." Although it was very busy, Wang Fan, who had lived an unusually fulfilling life, sat on the sofa and thought about it, then looked at Zhang Cheng and said, "I think the Americans still have the strength and willingness to continue fighting." At this time, he came to talk to us about surrender, and his heart was suspicious. ”

"Hmm." Zhang Cheng nodded slightly, picked up the cigarette on the table and lit it. Folded your legs and lean back on the back of the couch. Turning his gaze to Xiao Hongbao to the side, he asked with a smile, "What is your opinion?" ”

"A delaying tactic." Xiao Hongbao said with contempt on his face: "The Americans are in a hurry, and they just want to use negotiations to delay time with us." ”

"Hmm." Zhang Cheng nodded and said, "Go on." ”

"According to reliable intelligence, the secret weapon of the Americans has reached the stage of final verification. Once the final experiments are complete, they can go straight to production. Maybe they won't even be able to carry out experimental blasting, so they will just take it to the battlefield and use it. ”

"How long will it take for final verification?" Zhang Cheng frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Tell me an accurate number." ”

"According to the speed of development in our country, it will take at least three months, and if it is produced, one month is enough." Xiao Hongbao's words made Xu Yu raise his eyebrows. His eyes were slightly condensed, and he said in a deep voice, "Tighten it up, which means that the Americans will only need three months to have nuclear weapons at the earliest?" ”

"Yes." Xiao Hongbao nodded vigorously.

"It looks like they're stalling for time." Zhang Cheng nodded, turned his gaze to Wang Fan on the side, and said in a deep voice, "Talk to them, but you don't need to talk about anything." A temporary ceasefire would be a good thing. Since they want to drag out time, let's play with them. ”

After a pause, Zhang Cheng looked at Xiao Hongbao and asked loudly, "How is the attack plan against the Americans' nuclear weapons facilities?" ”

"The preliminary intelligence gathering has been completed." Xiao Hongbao nodded with a serious expression and said, "The late-stage attack plan has been formulated. ”

"Good." Zhang Cheng nodded vigorously and ordered in a loud voice, "Implement it as soon as possible." ”

"Yes!"

American Politics. A delegation sent by the government to negotiate with the Ming Dynasty. This delegation included not only Americans, but also other Allied governments in exile. The personnel of the government are among them. At the beginning of the talks, the Americans demanded that the Ming withdraw from all occupied land and restore the area of control between the two sides to the state before the war began.

In the face of this absolutely unreasonable demand, the negotiators of the Ming Dynasty had no intention of being angry at all. Just a smile on his face that everything can be discussed. We will now discuss the matter of unconditional surrender.

There is no sincerity on either side, and the negotiations are nothing more than a farce in the end.

During the negotiations, the Americans threatened that if the Ming did not accept the Americans' demands, the Americans would be forced to use weapons of destruction to carry out the final blow to the Ming. As for what kind of weapon of destruction, the Americans are silent. Daming is not interested in this, because it is negotiating in the area controlled by Daming, so it is good food and drink all day long, and there is no urgency at all.

As the two sides drank tea and chatted nonsense every day, with the passage of time and the victory of the Ming army on the battlefield, the attitude between the two sides began to gradually reverse.

Frontline, California.

As the Ming army swept through California and possessed a huge advance position, the Ming army, after nearly a month of preparation, had concentrated more than 130 divisions and more than 3.5 million officers and soldiers in the California region.

At the same time, the Ming army also supplied the front with more than 20,000 tanks, armored vehicles, half-track personnel carriers. There are more than 100,000 jeeps, trucks and transport vehicles of all kinds. The number of artillery pieces of various calibers, including mortars, exceeded 30,000.

The number of warplanes of all types supported by these armies has exceeded 12,000, most of them new jets. And these numbers are increasing as shipwand after convoy of convoys arrives.

The supporting materials and food were enough to support these Ming officers and soldiers in a large-scale continuous battle for more than three months. The Daming landing force is ready for large-scale operations.

The Ming army had no intention of moving south to Mexico. The transportation conditions there were very poor, and it was not suitable for large-scale combat operations of the Ming mechanized corps. And there is no important operational focus over there, and the Ming army needs to take the initiative. Therefore, after blocking the U.S.-Mexico border, the main targets of the Ming landing force in the southward movement were Arizona and New Mexico.

From here, you can break through the Rocky Mountains and enter Texas. And Texas and Oklahoma, which is next to Texas, have most of the oil production in the United States. Of course, the number of oil sources now has little impact on the situation of the war. The main operational objective of the troops on the Southern Front was to capture the Ming army in Texas and the Caribbean.

The attack routes of the Ming attack group on the Southern Front were planned to be Phoenix, Tucson, El Paso, San Antonio, Dallas, and Houston. After the Ming army on the southern front invaded Texas and captured the coastal cities, the Ming army in the Caribbean would join them. With the addition of follow-up reinforcements, the total strength of the Ming army, which has completed the first phase of the mission, is estimated to exceed 2.4 million.

Another assault force was planned to strike from north-central California, passing through Nevada, Utah, Colorado and Kansas into Missouri and Oklahoma. It is the central plain of the United States, where a large number of factories and major grains, cotton, and other crops are produced. Of course, even if the Ming army occupies these places at this time, it will not have an irreparable impact on the United States in a short period of time.

These two large legions may seem like just a normal two-way attack, but in fact, when they reach the target of the first stage one after another, the most important and real target will be revealed. That's Tennessee.

Tennessee is an ordinary state in the interior of the United States. There are neither tank production bases nor aircraft manufacturing plants. There is nothing bright except that agriculture is good. The Tennessee, Cumberland and Mississippi rivers flow through it and are home to more than 12 million acres of farmland. Cash crops such as tobacco, cotton and soybeans are cultivated in large quantities.

Speaking of industry, that is, the brewing industry is relatively developed, and there are some chemical enterprises and small businesses. Although it looks inconspicuous, this is the first target of the Ming army!

As for the simple reason, in Anderson and Ron counties of Tennessee, there is a valley called Black Oak Ridge near the small town of Clinton, 30 kilometers west of Knoxville. This valley of Oak Ridge is not marked on the map, but it was the main target of the Ming army.

For Zhang Cheng now, if there is a chance to choose between Washington and Oak Ridge, he will definitely choose Oak Ridge without hesitation. As for the reason is very simple, the test and production base of the ultimate weapon, which was carried out by the Americans and considered by all the allies to be the last straw, was set here!

In the face of such weapons of mass destruction, even Zhang Cheng has already made up his mind to completely subdue the world no matter what the cost. But he still palpitates at the lethality of his terrifying power. Child. Play!

No one in this era has ever seen the original. Child. The power of the bullet. Although Daming has completed the research and even manufactured it, it has never carried out live-fire experiments. The people of this era are not clear about the original. Child. They may have realized how terrifying the power of the bullet was, but they didn't see it.

Zhang Cheng didn't want his army to fall when he was about to see the dawn of victory. And it was ruined in the original. Child. Bounce the hand. Zhang Cheng is even preparing to conduct a secret live-fire experiment. Child. The ammunition was shipped to the Hawaiian Islands and guarded strictly, and once things went in an unpredictable direction, Zhang Cheng would definitely not be stingy with it.

Millions of troops will march from California toward their goal. The time limit given by Zhang Cheng is three months. From the ferocious artillery bombardment of the outskirts of Phoenix by the Southern Front on March 6, 1944, Oak Ridge had to be taken by June 6, 1944, to put an end to the Americans' superweapon program.

In order to achieve this goal, Zhang Cheng is willing to pay great sacrifices and costs.

On March 6, the Ming group began its attack on Phoenix, the capital and largest city of Arizona. The U.S. troops stationed in Phoenix are numerous, and even have thousands of tanks of various types. But their combat effectiveness was far inferior to that of the Ming army. Because most of the U.S. troops were infantry, and the vicinity of Phoenix was basically plain, they were simply unable to resist the armored offensive of the Ming army.

When the Ming army attacked, the front-line commander asked to retreat to defensible terrain to preserve strength. But when it comes to U.S. politics. The order of the government sent chills down the hearts of the defenders. U.S. Politics. The government demanded that the defenders must hold out until the last moment and fight to the last man.

It's not U.S. politics. Fu really didn't know anything about the situation on the front line, but because they had to prepare enough time for their superweapon program.

In the current situation, they can only choose to trade the army for time. (To be continued.) )
