Chapter 1825: The Saboteur

Just like the Japanese armored forces, besieging Salt Lake City, the siege is missing one, but in the four directions, to the north, to the south, to the east, there are people to report, just in the opposite direction of the cherry blossom plan, I have to say, these people still have the basic judgment ability, especially the grassroots officers like Mark, although the United States before the First World War, only 150,000 regular troops, but the military academy and infrastructure are quite in place, the strength of the grassroots officers is still very strong, which is also the United States can in a short period of time, The most fundamental reason why the army can be expanded by several million.

In addition to these directions, in the West and Washington, there are also notices that have received reports, after all, whether it is Ogden or Salt Lake City, there is a relatively complete telegraph system, they are with the tanks, the New First Army did not cut off their contact with the outside world at the first time, during the attack, it is still possible to send telegrams to the outside, even if there are no personnel on duty at night, no matter how dull they are, when the next day comes, The news that the hinterland of the United States has been attacked by a large number of armored forces of unknown forces will also spread throughout the United States like a thunderbolt, which is also the earth-shattering effect expected by the Sakura Project.

The morning star in the sky was rising, it was the darkest time before dawn, the sun was about to rise in the east, and at this time, because of the neglect of the telegraph operator, no one had yet realized that the situation in the United States had become grave and precarious overnight.

Most of the Japanese troops have already slept, as for the maintenance team, they also go to bed early, their tasks will be more onerous, if during the stealth period, you can waste a little time, after the attack on Ogden and Salt Lake City, the United States is almost impossible to bear, will inevitably send a large number of troops to encircle the tank troops, and Kawasaki Meijing has also decided to prepare to use the reconnaissance advantage provided by China to break the United States, give full play to the mobile advantages of tanks, and completely change the form of war, It can run more than 400 kilometers at any time to attack the weak points of the United States, and even if it cannot defeat the large forces of the United States, it can also drag them down.

In this case, not to mention that no time can be wasted, but the time must be accurate to the hour, and any little waste of time will have a very bad impact on the strategy, which puts forward higher requirements for the maintenance troops.

For this, the Chinese side is also supporting, a 3,500 armored force, attacking the hinterland of the United States, not only to cause the shock of the United States, the longer it stays here, the greater the impact, the greater the destructive power, and in this high-intensity battle, the exercise of maintenance personnel is also huge, many times, when repairing, let these maintenance personnel think of no longer the optimal plan, the complete maintenance of the program, but in a short period of time, restore the action of the tank, keep up with the most combat troops, In the hinterland of the United States, once there is a problem with the tank, it can only give up, and the possibility of coming back and taking it away is almost equal to zero.

Before dawn, it is the time when a person is most tired, but in addition to these soldiers and citizens who are running wildly in the dark and want to report the news to their superiors, there is also no rest, and Alaska, which is thousands of miles away, at this time, China's largest air base in Alaska, Sakura Airport, is still brightly lit.

The news of the attack on Ogden and the cutting off of the Pacific Railroad has been transmitted to Japan and China by telegram, and after hearing the news, there was jubilation, and even the troops with the Chen Cang plan set off, after 12 o'clock, they had been busy for more than two hours, and there was no rest for a few hours, and the Sakura Airport was busy again, and before dawn, another unit was ready to leave.

Entering the hinterland of the United States, the supply plus the Chen Cang plan, there were more planes to start the operation, and it was only after an airdrop at night, but this time, it was different, not only to replenish the various materials consumed in the battle last night, but also to give them an airdrop of a few big guys, these big guys were specially transported from China, and even transported through the Air Force.

Weighing 26 tons, the big guy who was divided into two parts, was named the saboteur, this thing is the terminator of the railway, driven by the steam engine and power, it can be used at a speed of about 9 kilometers per hour, continuously destroying the railway, the railway it destroys, quite thoroughly, basically, except for the old parts, there is no other way, this is also a big killer weapon for China's support to Japan, as long as it is used properly, it can make 500 kilometers, or even more railways completely paralyzed.

Japan, which has only tens of thousands of people, simply cannot afford such large-scale destruction, and the reaction of the United States must be very great, and they can move freely for a short time, with the speed of tanks, they can crisscross 500 kilometers a day, but they are tanks, or tanks without artillery, and such tanks can do something to the railways, at most destroy some railway bridges.

Historically, Germany, when attacking France, was taking this into account, Germany's sudden attack, Belgium could reflect a very short time, should not be able to destroy enough railways, but in fact, Belgium used a railway sabotage machine, in a short period of time, destroyed more than 2,000 kilometers of railways, which is also the predecessor of the saboteur, in China has been modified and strengthened to a certain extent, and finally formed such a machine, which was transported to Alaska.

Only machinery is the best choice to destroy the railway, otherwise, bury explosives, blow up all the way, 500 kilometers not only use explosives is an astronomical number, even if it is a lot of time, the Japanese troops absolutely cannot have such a time, the same destruction of the Rocky Mountains of the Chen Cang plan, the time span is at least more than 15 days, and the special time can be extended to 21 days.

This is also the difference between the Sakura Plan and the Chen Cang Plan, the Sakura Plan is attacking the Great Plains, which is the hinterland of the United States, where although the population is not large, the United States can mobilize troops here through various methods, it is easy to mobilize hundreds of thousands, or even millions of troops, around this area, but near the Rocky Mountains, as long as the entrances on both sides of the railway are blocked, it is almost impossible for the Rocky Mountains to mobilize a large number of troops, but the special forces can use manpower and machinery on some railways to quickly arrange and mobilize, Even called in strategic bombers to help destroy most of the railways in this area, according to Chinese statistics, as long as about 40% of the key nodes and tunnels in the Ki Mountains were destroyed, the United States had to abandon the Pacific Railway.

On the railway, the most economical speed of the saboteur is 7 kilometers per hour, 10 hours, 70 kilometers, 20 hours is 140 kilometers, of course, the saboteur is a total of 5 units, as long as there are three at the same time, they may be in the meeting, starting from Salt Lake City, at least 500 kilometers of railroad.

Two or three days, not much at all, the United States is not China, has not yet formed a rapid reaction force, to deal with a rapid force composed of 3,500 tanks, under the premise of no tanks, at least more than 300,000 troops are needed, with the virtue of the US military, three days, it is absolutely impossible to mobilize and complete, at least in a week or so, in three days with the destruction of such a huge railway line, for the Sakura plan is acceptable.

This operation, is the largest operation in the entire Sakura Airport, and the usual take-off of sixty or seventy strategic transport planes is different, this time at least 120 aircraft, take-off, a total of 5 such big guys will be airdropped, in order to ensure the overall efficiency, the saboteur itself is Belgian research, but carried forward by China Something, after this operation, will be a railway killer, shocking the whole world, of course, this part of the machine, after use, will be destroyed, no matter how destroyed, will also leave clues, this kind of machine is not very high-tech, even Belgium can make it, let alone the United States.

In the future, such a machine will be valued by the United States, if Japan has enough troops and enough time, maybe the entire Tianpingyang Railway will be destroyed, because the efficiency of this machine is too high, it may be more than 100 kilometers a day, and the entire Pacific Railway is only as long, more than 3,000 kilometers, and in 20 days, it can be completely destroyed.

At this moment, the Americans do not know, and even at the beginning, the United States only felt that Japan had only destroyed part of the railway bridges, which also blocked the railway, and to a certain extent, it would make it difficult for the United States to repair the railway, but this repair is the difference between heaven and earth when it is difficult to completely rebuild a railway.

The sky is not yet dawn, but in the past 11 days, similar night take-offs have been many times, to ensure that the armored forces are supplied with supplies every day, after entering the territory of the United States, the distance has exceeded 4,000 kilometers, and the flight time of the plane may be as long as 20 hours, and the back and forth is a day's time, fortunately, China has provided enough aircraft, otherwise, it will not even be enough to change shifts.

One after another planes flew into the sky, and then in the night, flew towards the United States, especially the core area of the phalanx, but it was to transport saboteur aircraft, the smallest is also about 16 tons of chassis, can not use ordinary transport aircraft, is the fuselage after special reinforcement, strengthened before it can, facing the sea breeze all the way to the south, in the high altitude, ushered in the first rays of sunshine, dawn, the sun rose, after the establishment of the United States, including the Civil War, the most shocking, but also the darkest day, It's finally here, it's not a battle between two people of the same origin, it's a real foreign invasion, it's not an island like Hawaii, it's not an enclave like Alaska, it's the real American mainland.
