When the two powerful armies of the Ming army attacked Tennessee from Missouri, Arkansas, and Mississippi respectively, the top brass of the US military realized the seriousness of the situation. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 What they didn't expect was that the million-strong army deployed along the Rocky Mountains failed to take advantage of the local terrain and blocked the Ming army in the Rocky Mountains.

The U.S. army's previous plan was to use a large army to block all the Ming attack forces in the Rocky Mountains. Because of the good terrain, this plan is very correct.

The strength of the US army on paper is not weak, close to 90 infantry divisions and more than 20 armored divisions are the main force of the blocking operation. The total number of troops has exceeded 1.5 million. And these are only field forces, with large numbers of National Guards all over the center, and these local forces will provide strong support to the U.S. military.

Because guns are not banned, men in the United States have basically been exposed to firearms before they reach adulthood. It's similar to Daming's kind of military training when he went to school. The number of National Guards everywhere is very large. Because it has a sufficient number of troops and a large number of weapons and equipment, the US military can quickly recruit a large number of reserve troops.

At this time, the main force of the US military was still deployed along its east coast. Its main purpose was to prevent a possible landing operation of the Ming army. After all, this is the only place where America is truly at heartland. And with the continuous victories of the Ming army, the forces that wanted to surrender everywhere also continued to strengthen. After all, many people watch the heavy bombardment of the Ming army every day and turn their wealth into piles of rubble, which must be a sign against the American government that insists on resisting. The government complained.

Moreover, because of the continuous increase in taxes, the conscription of young people into the army, the continuous fall of various places has led to a shortage of supplies, and many ordinary people in the west and central have fled to the east coast to escape the war, which directly leads to great security risks here.

In fact, the Americans stockpiled enough supplies on the East Coast to last everyone for three years without any problems. But the problem is that they can't guarantee that supplies will be distributed equitably to everyone who needs them.

The black market that eats people and does not spit out bones, hoarding and accumulating strangeness, collusion between guan businessmen, greed. Unclean. Rot. The defeat led to the bankruptcy of countless civilians, and life was worse than death. You must know that the United States does not ban guns, and it is still a time of war, and many people carry guns on their bodies for self-defense. When these people can't even eat, it becomes a matter of course that they use their guns in order to survive.

Local instability directly affects the military, after all, the officers and soldiers are basically from ordinary families. When their own families suffered a tragedy, it was naturally impossible for these officers and soldiers to remain indifferent. In addition, there are many Ming spies fanning the flames here, as long as they can mess up the United States, they dare to do anything.

The entire East Coast is in turmoil for a variety of reasons. And this is no longer something that the National Guard can handle. After all, the vast majority of the officers and soldiers of the National Guard are locals, and they will even be directly involved.

Looting shops, looting warehouses, looting, forcible killing, murder and all sorts of other crimes have swept the entire East Coast. There are even quite a few towns that have declared their secession from the federal government and demanded the surrender of the Ming Dynasty. This is naturally indispensable to the credit of the Ming spies, these spies dare to do anything, and dare to promise any kind of promise. As long as the goal can be achieved, nothing else will matter.

Americans are really going crazy, but there is nothing they can do about it. After all, they are federal, and the defeat of the war is absolutely devastating to the morale of the military and the people. This forced them to keep a large number of troops on the east coast to sustain the local area and suppress the rebellion.

Naturally, support for the central region is decreasing.

The rest is known, millions of regular troops and local National Guards were beaten into foam on the coast in the face of the Ming army's landslide-like ferocious offensive. In less than two months, at least a million troops were killed in battle, and the number of prisoners was more than three million!

Such a huge loss is definitely a nerve-wracking loss for the US military. After all, their human resources can't be compared to Daming. Especially at this moment, when such a large area of land and population is in decline.

When the Ming army gradually approached, it was crucial for the Americans, and it was completely the last trump card to turn over and the place where the greatest motivation to hold on was Tennessee. The Americans could no longer sit still, and hurriedly mobilized a large number of troops from the east coast to support, trying to prevent the Ming army from approaching the core weapons research and development and production base.

In order to weaken the resistance of the US army and seize the combat targets designated by Zhang Cheng, the Ming army not only dispatched a large number of bomber units to bomb important targets everywhere, but also ordered the Ming spies operating on the east coast to cause trouble for the US army.

Rocky Mountain City, North Carolina.

It's a very ordinary city, and it's not as conspicuous as a city in the United States. However, the city has an important rail line that runs from Richmond all the way to Charlotte. Many U.S. troops traveled to Tennessee via the railroad line to prepare to resist the Ming attack. Therefore, this place is also targeted by Daming's agents.

"Will, would you like a beer?" In a bar in the city, a middle-aged white man in his forties, dressed in shabby clothes, turned his head to look at the young man who had just come to his side, wearing a dark blue railroad worker's uniform, and said with a smile.

"Okay, thank you." Young Will was obviously a little nervous, and after sitting next to the middle-aged white man for a short time, beads of sweat were already forming on his forehead.

"Don't be nervous, lad." The middle-aged white man frowned, then pushed the beer glass next to him in front of Will, and whispered, "You are acting so obviously, you want to tell everyone that you have something right now, right?" ”

"No, it's not." Will took the beer glass and took a big sip before panting and whispering, "I'm just a little excited, I'm fine." ”

"Good." The middle-aged white man turned his gaze to the bar, smiled and said, "Paul, two more beers." ”

The name of this middle-aged white man is Leonard. Ford. He and the young man named Will were both natives of Rocky Mountain City. Ford was a former local police officer, but was fired from the police force for breaking the law and sent to jail for a year. In fact, the police in this era do this, and no one does bad things without collecting money. Ford was just offended and rectified.

When Ford came out of prison scarred, he found that everything about himself was gone. The wife ran away with the children, the house was robbed, and the property was long gone. Ford, who had nothing, also landed on the American mainland, and the whole country was plunged into great chaos.

Typical Ford, who is an unlucky bastard, had to work hard to earn money for his diet. But there were too many people like him, so Ford soon got into a field where there was no next meal. Just when Ford quietly got his hands on the pistol and was about to make a big move, several mysterious people took the initiative to find him in the garbage dump where he lived in the suburbs.

Soon, the former policeman appeared in front of everyone with a new look. Not only can you afford to live in a hotel, but you can also go to the bar from time to time to drink. Originally, such a thing would have attracted the attention of experienced police officers in peacetime. It's a pity that it's war season, and the enemy army has already hit the mainland, who is interested in paying attention to his affairs?

In fact, Ford was bought by Daming's agents, and accepted the funding of Daming's agents to become their downline. However, the Ming agents basically do not appear, but only command in secret.

In the United States, which is in turmoil, there are too many people who will be easily bought by the Ming Dynasty at this moment. It's not just unlucky people like Ford, but even the staff of many government agencies, and even the officers in the army, have been bribed by the Ming Dynasty. No one is a fool, everyone has already seen that the Ming Dynasty is about to achieve the final victory, and no one wants to be buried for a country that is doomed to perish.

Ford had been notified of his mission two days earlier, and his upline had asked him to blow up the railroad bridge over the Taal River in Rocky Mountain City in a short period of time, and had sent him funds and tools for the operation.

The Ming agents were not worried that someone like Ford would choose to betray, after all, anyone with eyes could see where the situation was now. It is even more nonsense to run away with the money, and since you will not betray, you will not run away, after all, this is the work of the upcoming victors and conquerors. If the head is broken, it will choose betrayal on the eve of the dawn of this victory, and it is about to see victory.

Ford is very concerned about this task, and even believes that it is the key to his future prosperity. Therefore, he began to choose a target by day and night.

Ford worked as a cop and knew a lot of things that ordinary people didn't know. For example, there is an army garrison on the railway bridge, and ordinary people can't get close to it, let alone blow it up. The only way to do this is to find a local person who works on the railroad as a helper.

After two days of observation and analysis, Ford finally fell in love with Will, who was almost bankrupt due to his parents' illness.

Will is an employee of the local railroad department, specializing in the maintenance of railways. He is the most likely candidate to enter the railway bridge. So Ford quickly took the money and found Will. In fact, Will, who was already starving to death at the moment, had no other choice.

He hadn't received a salary for months, and the family depended on him to provide for them, and everything the family could sell had already been taken to the black market for bread, and Will had no choice after his parents were seriously ill. (To be continued.) )
