Chapter 1861: The Sky Has Changed

That's right, the mushroom cloud is just a manifestation of nuclear weapons, the larger the nuclear weapon with a higher yield, the bigger the mushroom cloud, and in Eldorado, if there is one thing that can form a mushroom cloud, there is only one, the arsenal of the US military. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

This arsenal of the US military can be regarded as relatively well hidden, and the reconnaissance planes have not detected the location of the arsenal from the middle of the aerial reconnaissance, but this is only a temporary camp, and it is impossible to arrange a relatively complete arsenal and a permanent arsenal, and these weapons are basically placed in the core place and protected by the army, which is also something that any officer will design.

In itself, the air raid force believes that the arsenal may be dispersed, so as to ensure the safety of the arsenal to the greatest extent, which is also the fundamental reason why the first wave of the air attack used incendiary bombs instead of aerial bombs. In a huge area of four or five square kilometers, if you use aerial bombs, even if you only use 50 kilograms of aerial bombs, it is difficult to hit the arsenal by chance, but if you use incendiary bombs, each incendiary bomb can cover an area of more than 2,000 meters, and if the 400 bombs are evenly arranged, the enveloping area will be very huge.

There must be enough coverage to cover those arsenals, even if the attack on personnel does not achieve the goal, as long as these arms are destroyed, the combat effectiveness of these armies will be reduced by half, and the huge loss of personnel and munitions is enough to make the air attack effective.

Obviously, the Americans did not arrange it this way, they seemed to believe in their own strength, and concentrated most of the arms together, of course, the division that had already boarded the train, their weapons were on the train, in this case, the concentration of four divisions of arms, or specially strengthened for the purpose of combat, is also very considerable.

The arsenal, as a logistics location for five divisions, is very large in all kinds of materials, just more than 120 tons of explosives, an average of 30 tons of explosives per division, used to make explosives bags and some simple explosives, this is not all the flammable materials in the arsenal, the arsenal of the US army has tens of millions of bullets, an average of 200 bullets per person, even if there are tens of millions of bullets, as well as artillery shells, explosives, and other grenades and other individual equipment, In order to ensure that the army can be stationed and guarded for a long time, they are three times as many munitions, and under such a premise, the scale of this detonation is large enough, at least more than 2,000 tons of materials are detonated.

The Americans have a lot of money, and they concentrated more than 2,000 tons of explosives at once, and when these were detonated by incendiary bombs, the barracks became a nightmare, and the arsenal must not be placed casually, after all, this is only a temporary camp, and it is not a stationing point, they are placed in the center, tens of millions of bullets, 100,000 shells, and other materials, a series of detonations, even including 500 cannons and heavy machine guns, guns and the like, the number of these munitions is more, almost 10,000 tons, In particular, those cannons, which were specially mobilized to deal with the artillery of Japanese tanks, and among them, there were 100 heavy guns of more than 120 mm, and these were all gone.

The airstrikes had already laid the foundation for success at the beginning, and after the destruction of this batch of munitions, the American army was like a spine drain, and even if some people were lucky enough to escape their lives, they would not have the combat power to continue throughout the Central Mountains.

Later, some people counted that not counting the follow-up attacks, just the attacks of those incendiary bombs were enough to destroy such 5 divisions of the US army, because the US troops caused by the incendiary bombs would suffer at least half of the casualties, plus the follow-up aerial bomb attacks, in the end, this area of more than 4 square kilometers was completely rounded by incendiary bombs and aerial bombs, and almost every inch of land was raging with death.

Among them, more than 70% of the U.S. military, without much defense, was killed by such intensive bombing, and a large part of the rest was burned and single-pieced, and it was really intact, with less than 15% of the personnel, that is, among more than 50,000 people, only 7,500 people were finally intact, and this is not the final result, the burning houses, the subsequent explosions, and even those trains on the railway, because they are going to leave tomorrow morning, they don't even have guards, I fell asleep, and when the fires ignited by incendiary bombs lit up the city in the night, the railroads were nowhere to be seen.

If it's just a train of trains, it won't attract the attention of the planes, but it's a train with lights on, air-raided planes, very clearly, there should be people on these trains, and they are in the train, it's easy to deal with, so they focused on where to attack, and as a result, the U.S. troops in the train were unlucky, and most of them were in the train, most of them didn't realize that the crisis was coming, and when they wanted to run, most of the trains were thrown from the air and hit the surroundings. In the carriages of the train, there was nowhere to escape.

There are still seven or eight thousand people themselves, in the face of bomb attacks, the US troops who can survive in the end are almost minimal, this air raid is too tragic, the US troops have been hit by a huge blow, they don't know at all, what direction the flames come from, these flames, like the flames from hell, can not be extinguished, they can only watch the soldiers die, and there is no way to even rescue.

In the dark night, even if the entire city is caught in the flames of war, it is impossible to confirm the results of the battle, but before the air strike, China has already made a plan for the air attack, whether it is an incendiary bomb or an aerial bomb, it is to attack according to the whole plan.

According to the plan, the plane left quickly, but less than 40 minutes later, the second wave hit again, because of the location of the barracks, has fallen into a fire, in order to ensure the efficiency of the attack, the direction of the second wave of attacks, concentrated in the city of 20,000 people Eldorado, and finally suffered a devastating blow, the flames caused by the incendiary bombs, almost the entire Eldorado was enveloped, 92% of the houses were burned to the ruins More than half of the people died, more injured, The entire Eldorado was razed to the ground, and as for the US military camp at the core of the attack, it was completely burned to the ground, 47,000 US troops were seriously wounded and killed in this attack, and at least more than 20,000 people were injured, and the intact ones were almost minimal.

The attacks on the river port and Eldorado respectively, even the well-trained regular troops, faced with heavy losses in the face of attacks that they had never experienced before, and by the time they recovered from the throes of the air raids, it was already hours later.

At 12 o'clock, the survivors who fled in a hurry, including some of the military high-ranking officials, went to another city as soon as possible and sent a telegram to Washington, and the direction he ran was to the west, not to the east, and it was these westward that successfully sent a telegram to Washington, and those who were in a panic, to the east, they ran in the wrong direction, but they were surprised to find that the east was already a Jedi, it turned out, this place was also attacked, and the smoke and empty city that had not yet dispersed, told themThe city is extinct, and the devout believers among them even feel that hell has come, otherwise, why would the United States be attacked like this, isn't the United States the safest place in the world?

At this moment, the top brass in Washington have not yet realized that the entire Central Mountains have completely changed, and all cities, settlements, and even railroads no longer exist, which is a comprehensive blow to the entire American Pacific Railway.

At 12 o'clock in the evening, at this moment, the joint meeting has been normalized, the war against Japan, especially the Japanese attack on the United States, has completely entered the United States into a state of war, everything in all countries needs to be inclined to war, even here there are two officers above the rank of lieutenant general stationed for a long time, here to deal with all the affairs of the Japanese armored corps, they are all competent and experienced generals, can handle all this comprehensively.

To be honest, in the past few days, for the US military, bad news has come one after another, and it is the worst and worst news, they have no choice but to passively bear it, fortunately, when the railroad from Salt Lake City to the location of the Rocky Mountain Pass was almost destroyed, Japan was not advancing, which gave hope to the Americans, and they also knew the information about the saboteurs in the information they kept sending back.

A tool to destroy the railway, and not a weapon, can only destroy those railways under the premise of having enough escorts, without the role of these escorts, they will basically, will be killed, they have notified the army of the Rocky Mountains, expand the search area, if you encounter these, you must kill him at all costs, in their opinion, although the Japanese armored force is strong, but the number is not much, at most tens of thousands of people, how can it be possible to enter the mountains on a large scale, on the other side, Although the Japanese blew up the Sacramento Bridge, it also made the American troops on the west coast burst into unimaginable enthusiasm, they are frantically mobilizing forces, at present 70,000 people have entered the mountains, as long as a day or two to transfer them, they will definitely be able to fortify near the Rocky Mountains, treat the Japanese as outside the Rocky Mountains, and then they can gradually arrange, and finally the Japanese fall into the trap, slowly squeeze them, and finally annihilate.

It may be necessary to annihilate 5,000 tanks, it will take a huge price, but the central part has been lost, and the Pacific Railway has also been destroyed more than 400 kilometers, what they can do is to avoid the loss of increasing again, which is the only choice for these Americans, they will jointly mobilize the army in the east and west, not only including a large number of artillery and professional soldiers, the scope of the need to garrison is too large, this is the internal battle, must be fortified step by step, And we can't let Japan's armored forces go east, the east is the most elite area of the whole United States, from Salt Lake City only need to advance one or two thousand kilometers to the northeast, is Chicago and the Great Lakes region, here is the most important industrial base of the United States, if the Japanese armored forces get here, it will be extremely troublesome.

At night, there will not be much intelligence, and the Japanese armored convoys, outside of the first few days, rarely act at night for the rest of the time, and the day is enough, even if the Japanese tanks have had examples of operating at night, but compared to the night, the day seems to be more important.

In fact, for the U.S. military, it is also the most intelligence during the day, whether it is the scouts sent out during the day, or some light aircraft, or even airships and the like, these can help the Americans obtain intelligence, so the day is the busiest time, the entire war room, at least more than 100 radios, only some of the most important radio stations, will be placed next to the war room where the lieutenant generals are located, and the rest are unimportant intelligence.

This is also a last resort, there are too many territories involved, there are too many telegrams that need to be contacted, it is necessary to distinguish priorities, important telegrams, must be reported to the war room as soon as possible, according to the agreed location, the important thing at present is the Rocky Mountain Pass, Eldorado, and the American troops stationed in the north, near the Missouri River, they are the most concerned, and the Americans are also afraid, the Japanese target them, on the railway, there is no army, their combat effectiveness is equal to zero, if they are attacked by Japan, that loss is also great.

The Americans at this moment did not realize at all that on the Western Front, they had been attacked again, and their minds were still on the Eastern Front, and they did not realize at all that the entire Western Front was being beaten into a sieve.

The telegram sounded from a small room far from the headquarters, and these cities in the central mountain range were considered second-level targets, which were important before, and now, even the American troops on the Western Front had crossed them, and they were in fact stuffed into this unimportant position on the premise that they were already in the rear.

Suddenly, the telegram sounded, and the telegraph operator on duty didn't care at first, just a routine translation, but just a few lines of translation, his face immediately changed, and he shouted loudly: "Come on, this is an urgent message, S07 channel, everyone come!" ”

His yelling made the entire war room, some sleepy telegraphers, all woke up suddenly, called the leader of their telegraph group, and the oldest qualified telegrapher, opened the telegram one after another, began to record and translate, this message is very long, even if it is recorded from the middle, the meaning of the middle also makes everyone change color, the most important thing is that this is an urgent message, it is sent three times in a row, when the second time begins, corroborate and check each other, to the third time, the telegram team leader picks up the translated message, In a panic, he went to his superiors, and the rest continued to confirm and compare the messages, and in his eyes, he was full of consternation, and the sky had changed.
