Chapter 1849: Tripartite Situation

When the United States hurriedly issued this order, it had already received a telegram from Zhou Xing Zhou Juyang's side, but it was full of excitement that the western exit was finally closed, which means that the threat of the western front is basically equal to zero, and under the premise that there is no way to bypass the Sacramento River, at least for a certain period of time, the US military cannot send troops to this side in a large way, and their actions can be more daring.

Zhou Juyang is ready to destroy the eastern exit, once the two exits are destroyed, in addition to this mountainous area, at least 20 small stations and small towns, no more than 30,000 people, the entire Rocky Mountains, the United States power is basically negligible, in the railway stations in the central mountain range, there are a certain garrison and armed forces, adding up to several thousand people, but scattered on the long route of more than 500 kilometers, the average armed force on a small station will not exceed 100 people.

When the railroad was cut off, it was very difficult for them to communicate with each other. At present, under the premise that the aircraft has not become the mainstream, it is almost impossible for the Americans to create a threat to them, and he will act more freely, according to the Chen Cang plan, the colleagues who are blocked at the western exit are preparing to start cutting off the railway entrance to the Rocky Mountains, so that the railroad in the mountains of the central United States will become a closed entity.

According to the liaison between the headquarters and the Japanese side, Japan's Sakura Plan is going quite smoothly, the U.S. defense forces in the central region, as well as the response force of the U.S. military, have not reached the minimum authority of the Sakura Plan, itself, when blowing up the Sacramento bridge, 3-50,000 U.S. troops may come in, they need to kill these U.S. troops first, and after they have cleaned them up, they can continue the next phase of the operation, although tens of thousands of U.S. troops, but in the central mountain range, can not be deployed, with the help of the Air Force, It was only a matter of time before they were all annihilated.

The current situation is that when the army on the Western Front destroyed the bridge in Sacramento, none of the US military columns entered the Central Mountains, and in the Central Mountains, there were still those militia and other garrisons before, and these garrisons were almost equal to zero for the Chinese special forces. Into the Rocky Mountains.

The efficiency of the machine is far from being able to be replaced by people, the saboteurs invested in just 2 days, following the Japanese armored convoy, all the way to destroy the railway, the efficiency is extremely high, especially now, the time of contact is particularly good, the 5 saboteurs dropped by air, put into use are 3 vehicles, after learning that the Western Front is closed, the US military can not threaten them in a short period of time, Japan won the battle generously, supporting 2 or 3 saboteurs.

These two or three saboteurs will directly enter the Rocky Mountains, and the Japanese will escort them over, and with saboteurs, the destruction of the railway will be faster and more effective.

In itself, in the implementation of the Chen Cang plan, more with the help of explosives, at most airdrop some simple carriages that can be used on the railway, just like the transport carriages of small coal kilns, which can be pulled by people on the railway, moved, and have a certain load capacity, but it is very different from the automatic operation of the saboteur.

Even Japan can be supported by China, airdrop saboteurs, Japan can, of course the special forces are fine, but the airdrop is one thing, whether they can be sent to the rails is another aspect, compared with the armored forces, the special forces are on various tools, compared with the armored forces, there is a huge gap, there are no various tools, and there is no crane specifically for armored vehicles, with special forces manpower, there is no way to send the saboteurs to the rails, they have very few people, and there is no basic lifting device, More than 600 people seems like a lot, but for the saboteurs as a whole, it is still too little.

Next to the entire saboteur, there are not many people who can play a role, more than a hundred people, no matter how much the power is grabbed, it is impossible to try to lift the weight of 10 tons, one is not careful, there will be casualties, itself in the Chen Cang plan, there are no saboteurs, now, everything is going well on the side of Salt Lake City, and the entrance on the other side is also blocked, they are also bold and take the risk of letting Japan send the saboteurs over, so it is acceptable to waste extreme time.

On the second day of the attack on Salt Lake City, the Japanese received an airdrop from China, obtained 5 saboteurs, and because of the time, they mobilized 3 saboteurs, and themselves, they were ready to distribute them evenly and continue the relay, and when they heard China's request, of course they agreed. Next, they are ready to slow down, anyway, the other section will be destroyed, there is no need to worry about the army coming from the west coast, they are also relaxed, if it is carried out according to 20 hours of non-stop, the speed of this saboteur is about 140-160 kilometers a day,

For the armored force of the guard, it is also needed so much, fortunately, they have already broken through to a distance of nearly 400 kilometers, because under the premise that China blows up the bridge in Sacramento, it is equivalent to the threat from the Western Front no longer exists, so under the premise, they don't need to hurry up, just take a leisurely stroll, anyway, the west no longer needs to be considered, the troops from the east, to Salt Lake City must slow down, even if the other side uses armored forces, it will take at least many days, In order to be able to catch up with them, in this case, escorting this, can even be reduced to 12 hours a day, basically reaching a similar situation, and even changing shifts, anyway, after the saboteurs are sent to the Rocky Mountains, they will be handed over to those Chinese, and the task will be completed, which is very easy for the Japanese

Before the United States' military strength came up, with the help of China's airdrop advantage, several supply points were set up in the central Great Plains, although there was the support of China's air force, and even China's promise, but the airdrop not only needed to be in a secluded location, but also needed a certain amount of time at least about an hour and a half. In between, the airdrop time alone is 30 minutes, and even if you wait in advance, waiting for the plane to arrive, you can't just walk around.

This is a bit inconvenient, in the secret stealth, it's okay, but really in the middle of the battle, sometimes in order to wait for the airdrop, the Japanese armored forces need to create a lot of opportunities, in this case, maybe, the delay of the fighter is certain, and even in some cases, it may cause unnecessary losses.

In the middle of entering the United States, everything is going well, and now in this way, the railroad in the Central Mountains will be completely cut off in the next week, and then from Salt Lake City to the Rocky Mountains, a full 500 kilometers, counting the Missouri River, a distance of about 600 kilometers, this is a huge strategic depth of 300,000 square kilometers, as long as under the reconnaissance of the aircraft, if they are given enough support, the mobility and combat effectiveness of the armored convoy will be brought into full play to the United States.

Under this premise, Kawasaki Meijing has also begun to enliven a lot, in a secret location, store a batch of supplies and weapons, at a critical moment, you can get supplies, without having to wait for the airdrop, from distant Alaska, even if the airdrop is quite powerful, it can replenish the needs of the armored fleet for a long time, it cannot be compared with the supplies on these land, and it is not flexible, under the premise of fierce fighting, even if it is fully equipped, under one or two fierce encounters, maybe the ammunition will be exhausted, and it is difficult to run out.

There are less than 300 kilometers of railways, and even the US military is stationed quite sparsely, Kawasaki Meijing left less than 800 tanks, escorting the remaining three saboteurs, who must rush to the Rocky Mountains as quickly as possible to prevent destruction, and the remaining tanks, they went to the Great Plains area, using the Great Plains as a battlefield, and setting up 3-5 secret storage locations in a relatively large area.

As long as you don't choose to be in the key transportation arteries, with the current sparse population here in the Great Plains, it is not difficult to find a valley or a dense forest to store hundreds of tons of materials, mainly because it is more convenient in the next battle.

When receiving the request of Kawasaki Meijing, the Chinese side was also shocked, they did not expect that Kawasaki Meijing would be so bold, and actually wanted to use the Great Plains as a battlefield to eliminate the living forces of the United States as much as possible, this goal sounds, very fantastical, but in fact, Kawasaki Meijing has begun to play the biggest advantage of the tank, what is the advantage of the tank, not his strong armor, not his attack power, but his asymmetry.

Tanks can attack fixed positions, speed and protection, can attack the defensive line, at that time Japan's Juno Line, basically has reached the European Bordeaux front line protection standards, such a line of defense, in the face of the direct impact of more than 20,000 tanks in the United States, almost unable to stop, if it is not for the United States has no experience, no use of artillery reconnaissance, maybe, can not stop Japan.

Such a weapon specially developed to break through the defense line, whether it is the United States, or the United Kingdom, or even Germany, they all think so, such a weapon is used on the defense line, but under the guidance of Yang Yuanzhao, China has initially realized that the combat benefits of the large army, what can really play the role of a tank, but in the field, to attack the fixed defense line, especially at the level of the European battlefield, with heavy artillery and the like as a backing, how to say that there will be damage, What is really suitable for tank attack is still field warfare, especially when all kinds of artillery and fixed defenses are not deployed, and the tank breaks into the infantry unit at a speed of more than 35 kilometers, and it may be found that after the preparation, the preparation time is less than an hour, or even only half an hour, and the infantry cannot be deployed at all.

Kawasaki Meijing studied in China, although China did not deliberately teach them, how to use the large corps to fight, but some subtle things, to completely keep secret, it is really not an easy thing, China does not care much about this, armored forces and air force, to a certain extent, is a technology-intensive industry, personal quality and tactical concepts, in some cases, just a icing on the cake, some consciousness although, but there is no strong tank or aircraft support, No matter how good the tactics are, what is the use?

For example, for the US military in later generations, stealth and supersonic cruise are already familiar standards, but except for a few countries in the world, even if other countries know, they can't reach it, as for now, give Japan 10 years, Japan doesn't want to make the same main battle tank as China now, there is no such foundation, there is this awareness, just let Japan play more of the role of tanks, as for the rest, there is no more, that's all.

It's just one or two more airdrops, which is a benefit to China, it's just a matter of arranging a few more sets of planes, and it's just a little fuel, which is already very familiar to China, and quickly agreed to the request of Kawasaki Beauty, the two sides arranged time for docking, determined a few basic locations, and then the cherry blossom base began.

About 70 kilometers northeast of Sacramento, this is a mountain peak with an altitude of 1400 meters, in the middle of the mountainside, where the two peaks intersect, there is a large lake of several square kilometers, this lake located in the middle of the mountainside, calm and abnormal, the breeze blows, rolling up the waves, 8 very small planes, dropped anchor and stayed here, they took off from the aircraft carrier in the time of last night, and flew straight here.

The aircraft carrier itself was 1,500 kilometers away from the coast of the United States, and immediately after the Japanese attack on Salt Lake City, it began to open at full strength, and at an average speed of 18 knots and in two days, it had traveled almost 1,300 kilometers and had arrived near the west coast of the United States.

Zhou Xing and others, after more than 6 hours of trekking, after all, the straight-line distance is more than 50 kilometers, and they are all mountain roads, even if the special forces are professionally trained, under the premise of no other means of transportation, they are also a little tired, fortunately, when they get to the lake, they don't need to do it, they have already prepared to operate here in the assault boat back and forth, and they are all sent to the plane people, and there are nearly 30 people on a plane, which is more difficult and crowded for small seaplanes, But for the special forces, this is nothing, only less than two hours of flight time, a little squeezing is nothing.

The central mountain range of the United States, even if it is only 70 kilometers away from the city, is an uninhabited place, not to mention that this lake is also specially selected, not only is it difficult to climb, but there are not even human tracks within a dozen kilometers around.

The seaplane flew lightly on the lake, through more than 100 meters of water, after accumulating enough lift, it flew directly into the sky, because it was a light aircraft, and it had to fall hundreds of kilometers away, they did not form a camp, but flew up one by one, on the other side, Zhou Juyang had already sent people, in a lake less than 10 kilometers away from their base camp, arranged eye-catching signs, light seaplanes, there is no way to install radiolocators, but there are some landmark buildings, There are also huge signs located on the ground, at least more than 500 square meters of the battle situation, the lake and the signs together, basically have a huge guiding role.

The plane is still in the sky, and the destruction of the eastern exit is still being prepared, at least until Zhou Xing and the others return, and the saboteurs enter the Rocky Mountains.

At this moment, the Americans are not idle, Sacramento is attacked, just like lighting a fire in a firewood pile, basically burning the fire, even if it is only four bridges, it is also a direct provocation to the west coast of the United States, they even mobilized much faster than the regular speed, in just one day, there were 2 divisions of the army, on the side of San Francisco and Los Angeles, on the side of the steamboat, directly down the waterway, among which San Francisco is the fastest, San Francisco itself is close to the San Francisco Bay, through which the Sacramento River and the American River are directly connected, and going upstream, probably in the afternoon, have landed at the river port a little upstream, they will rest in the river port for a night, and then cross the mountain road about 20 kilometers, and in a day reach the station 100 kilometers east of Sacramento, mobilize trains from other places, and also go there, at most until tomorrow morning, a division of American troops, will board the train, and go along the Pacific Railroad.

If you take the Pacific Railroad as a chessboard, the United States, Japan and China are currently making efforts, the easternmost side, at sea, is a task force composed of 4 aircraft carriers, with the capacity of nearly 700 aircraft, and the direct support of the airport in Alaska, the strike force can reach a very high level, the three states on the west coast, because Sacramento is attacked, like burning eyebrows, it usually may take 3 days, or even a week, to be able to rectify, this is less than 4 hours, on board, of course, Heavy weapons or something, as well as abundant supplies or something, are not yet complete, but a part of the light infantry is on board, and the follow-up heavy weapons and other weapons are following behind, in the eyes of the Americans, it is enough to pursue those small forces, by the way to support the Rocky Mountains, and the light infantry will go.

Even now, when Japan has entered the American mansion and made trouble in the central part of the United States, I still underestimate Japan, and I didn't expect that China would be mixed in, not to mention that they would come to 100,000 people, even if they came to 1 million, in the special place of the central mountains of the United States, it was given for nothing, at least 700 aircraft, even if there were only 300 bombers, but there were medium-sized bombers, with a maximum bomb load of 8 tons, one of which was on top of four other aircraft, and could be equipped with high-powered aerial bombs.

The Americans' minds are still stuck in the army, thinking that if they have railways and trains, they are not afraid of being attacked, but they do not realize at all that the threat comes from the air, and in such a unique environment as the railway, and even in a unique place with mountains on both sides, there is no place to run, and no matter how many troops come, they will not be able to spread, and they will be blown up and sunk by planes one by one, and sent to God.
