"The moon recess the day. When a million troops approached the city, the US authorities finally could not bear the tremendous pressure, announced their unconditional surrender, and ordered all troops to stop all combat operations, and the front-line troops surrendered to the nearest Republican ** team, while the rear troops were on standby, waiting to accept the republican ** team for reorganization.

This day is the anniversary of the end of the three world wars!

In fact, it was not only the more than a million Marines who had sharpened their knives that had crushed the United States, but also the Republican Army that had invaded the Great Lakes, occupied Buffalo, crossed the border on the night of the moon, invaded Canada, and entered the city of Ottawa in the early morning of the 4th.

In a sense, the combat operations of the Army of the Republic are of decisive significance.

Although the fighting power of the Republican Marines is obvious to all, no one will doubt that the legions that swept through the Pacific Ocean, which occupies nearly half of the Earth's surface. No one will doubt that the regiment that was the first to board the continental United States, but the shortcomings of the Republic Marine Corps were also exposed on the mainland battlefield. To know. Before boarding the continental United States. The Republican Marines have always fought on islands in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, and have hardly participated in battles on the mainland. It is undeniable that the will to fight of the Marine Corps is no less than that of the Army, and even surpasses it, but in combat operations, the Marine Corps is more dependent on support from the sea, especially direct artillery support. It lacks the ability to fight independently, and even more so the ability to attack fortified positions. Not to mention the attack on New York, if the attack on Boston was not directly supported by the Navy and the Vitality Support Fleet, the Marines would have paid a much heavier price and would not have been able to complete the mission. Of course, the Marine Corps cannot be blamed for this, after all, the Marine Corps is originally a unit that fights in the coastal area, there is no need to go deep inland, and it is the army that fights on land. From the point of view of facilitating amphibious landings, there is no reason for the Marine Corps to be equipped with a large number of logistical support forces in order to enhance its independent combat capability and a large amount of heavy equipment in order to enhance its ability to attack fortified positions, as the Army does. You must know that a lot of heavy equipment in service during the Great War, especially the main battle equipment on the ground, can hardly be transported by vertical take-off and landing transport aircraft of the Marine Corps. At least it cannot be shipped directly, it must be disassembled and shipped. Go to the front and spend time assembling again. For the army, this is not a big problem, after all, the air assault on the battlefield of the land is supported by ground troops, and it cannot be directly airlifted, and it can be transported by road. Or wait until the assault force has stabilized its position before airlifting. This is a serious problem for the Marine Corps, because on the beachhead, there is absolutely no time, or even space, for the officers and men of the Marine Corps to assemble weapons and equipment!

In any case, the biggest difference between the Marine Corps and the Army is here, and there is nothing wrong with it, otherwise there would be no need for the Marine Corps to exist. From another point of view, in the inland battlefield, the performance of the Marine Corps is not better than that of the Army, and then in the coastal battlefield, the Army's appearance is not necessarily better than that of the Marine Corps.

It can be said that this is the main reason why the authorities of the Republic divided the continental theater of the United States into two parts, with the Marine Corps in charge of the coastal theater and the Army in charge of the inland theater.

The problem is that for the US authorities, this is undoubtedly a ray of hope.

To put it more bluntly, before the Republican Army entered the war, the United States authorities also hoped to rely on the Arapachian Mountains to hold back the Republican Marines, and to negotiate an armistice with the Republic in order to obtain the best terms for the armistice while holding the ground and the central and eastern regions, especially the Mississippi River Valley.

With the entry of the Republican Army into the war, this hope of the American authorities quickly came to naught.

It must be admitted that the performance of the Army of the Republic was very good.

You must know that after the outbreak of the Great War by General Yuan Chenhao, chief of the general staff of the Republic and chief of staff of the army, the authorities of the Republic broke down the old rules and restored the ranks of generals and marshals that were not established in peacetime, and made clear regulations on how to confer these two military ranks. That is, generals are mainly awarded to those soldiers who have made outstanding contributions to the war, while marshals have only symbolic meaning and have nothing to do with military rank. During the Great War, Yuan Chenhao and Hua Jianfeng, Liang Guoxiang of the Naval Aviation, Mei Lechi and Dai Xianglong of the Heavenly Army, and Zhou Boyi of the Marine Corps became the first batch of generals to be officially awarded the rank of general. Among them, Yuan Chenhao and Hua Jianfengju personally commanded.

There is no doubt that Yuan Chenhao's ability does not need to be doubted.

At that time, almost many people believed that after the Republican Army landed in Boston, it would make Detroit a target, and follow the southward passage opened by the Marines, first to New York, and then westward, along the route of Harrisburg, Bedford, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, and Toledo. If a fleet of ships, even hovercraft, could be managed to deliver a fleet of ships, even hovercraft, to the Great Lakes region, the Republican Army might even cross Lake Erie directly after reaching Cleveland and go ashore near Detro.

You know, Detroit is the industrial center of the Great Lakes region of the United States.

There is no doubt that this small temptation is too great. Not to mention, those well-known companies in American history, such as General Motors, Ford and Chrysler, are headquartered in Detroit, so the city is also known as the heart of American industrialization, and the Asahi team based in this city is called the Pistons. All in all, while Detroit is not as populous as Chicago in the region, it is definitely more important than the Great Lakes along the recesses of other cities in the Old District, and is a symbolic regional center city

What's more, Detroit's geographical location is very unique. After capturing the city, the Republican Army could march north into Canada, along the isthmus between Lake Huron and Lake Erie and Lake Ontario to Toronto, and along the north bank of the St. Lawrence River toward Ottawa. Because this route is the most advanced highway and rail line between the United States and Canada, and there are many towns along the way that can be used as supply centers, it is not difficult to enter, and it is even easier than the combat operations of the Republic Army on the Russian battlefield. If you don't go north, you can march west. Capture Chicago on the west shore of Lake Michigan, the third most populous megacity in the United States, after New York and Los Angeles, and take over the largest mining area in the United States. Laying the groundwork for the Mississippi River Basin. Of course, at this time, the Republican Army does not necessarily need to go deep into the hinterland of the United States, so it can also lead south from Detroit to capture Indianapolis, Nashville and other major cities in the central and eastern United States, and complete the established offensive mission. Even if you take a step back and don't need to occupy such a vast area, you can use the Detroit rate as a base and take advantage of the convenient water transportation in the Great Lakes region to march eastward and sweep the northeastern part of the United States at a lower cost.

All in all, almost everyone thinks. There is no reason why the Army of the Republic should not rate to Detro.

The problem is that the Republican Army did not march on Detroit, but instead targeted Buffalo.

Judging from the situation at that time, Yuan Chenhao decided to attack Buffalo first for only one reason. That is, the combat operations of the Republican Army in the hinterland of the United States are not adequately guaranteed. To put it more bluntly, there is no guarantee of logistical supply for the combat units of the Army of the Republic. To know. Transporting supplies from Boston to Buffalo on the eastern shore of Lake Erie was about half as short as transporting them to Detroit on the west side, which meant that logistics were half as difficult. There is no doubt that this has a lot to do with the Navy of the Republic, as well as with the Marine Corps. Without the support of the Navy, there is no room for the Army, even if it intends to make a big impact on the American battlefield.

In this way, Yuan Chenhao had to be careful about Li Ran's limited combat strength.

Of course, there is also a very likely reason for the attack on Buffalo, that is, the high command of the Republic has lost patience with Canada's slow refusal to surrender, and hopes that Canada will surrender before the United States. In this way, in addition to being able to control Canada calmly and not give Europe a mobile phone opportunity. It can also put pressure on the US authorities. The latter purpose is all the more obvious, since there is a high probability that the US authorities will collapse completely after the loss of the last ally.

In fact, judging by the combat operations of the Army. It was also mainly for the capture of Yatawa.

In any case, as Niagara, the armoured unit of the Republican Army, crossed the border and invaded Canada, and swept through Toronto, Canada's most populous area, as no one else, the United States authorities had no reason to doubt the Republican Army's combat effectiveness on the battlefield of the North American continent, nor did they have any reason to doubt the Republican authorities' determination to defeat the United States in a ground war and achieve ultimate victory.

And, of course, there is the Republican Marine Corps in Philadelphia.

Combining these factors, the only option for the US authorities is to surrender.

The problem is that even if the US authorities make the decision to surrender unconditionally, and unconditionally in the true sense of the word, the war will not end overnight.

On the day of the moon, the Republican Marines occupied Philadelphia without blood, and met with representatives sent by the American authorities.

On the last day of the month, representatives of the United States authorities arrived in the new capital of the Republic and made their first official contact with the authorities of a certain country. On the day of the previous month, the representatives of the United States went to Shanghai and announced the decision of the United States authorities to surrender to the representatives of all the member countries of the group at the headquarters of the intensive group.

By this time, the delegations of the Republic and the United States had already negotiated the signing of the instrument of surrender. Although according to the intention of the US authorities, they should try to keep a low profile, after all, this is not a glorious four modernizations, but the attitude of the authorities of the Republic is very clear, which has affected hundreds of people around the world. A world war for countries and billions of people, not a local war, and since the defeated country that started the war has surrendered unconditionally, it is not in a position to bargain with the victorious country that has suffered great damage in the war on the issue of signing the instrument of surrender. There is no reason to keep a low profile. According to post-war statistics, the number of soldiers and civilians on both sides of the war is much larger. According to the estimates of some civilian organizations, during the war, the number of soldiers and civilians who died directly in the war was more than B, and only civilians were cited B. Ten thousand. The number of civilians who have died due to turmoil, famine, plague and other disasters caused by war, and even man-made natural disasters is countless, and it is conservatively estimated that the number of soldiers and civilians who died directly in the war will not be less than three times, and the highest estimate is double. In other words, this war took the lives of hundreds of millions to hundreds of millions of people, which is equivalent to the total population of the world before the war. Of course, this estimate is also supported by demographic statistics, that is, according to the population statistics released by the countries of the world in the year of death and injury, the third world war is not the same as the body of the clam, the global population has been reduced in exchange for a huge price. It is necessary to use the memorable surrender ceremony and other means to warn future generations to avoid similar tragedies from happening again.

At the insistence of the authorities of the Republic, the signing ceremony of the surrender was scheduled for the first day of the old month, and the place was on the warships of the Republic Navy in the Chesapeake Bay, representing the central government of the Republic will be Vice President Jiao Meishan, the chief of the General Staff will be General Yuan Chenhao, representing the Republican ** Team and the Army of the Republic, representing the Navy of the Republic will be Admiral Zhang Xuefeng, Commander of the Atlantic Theater Fleet, representing the Celestial Army of the Republic will be Senior General Meloch, and representing the Republic Marine Corps will be Senior General Zhou Boyi. In addition, the member countries of the intensive group will send representatives to the surrender ceremony, with representatives of India, Pakistan, Iran, Sudan, Argentina and Europe signing the agreement as the victorious parties, while the other countries will only send representatives to participate in the ceremony.

As for who the United States will send to the surrender ceremony, that is a matter for the American authorities.

In this list, there are two most eye-catching, one is that Pei Chengyi did not go to the surrender ceremony. This is relatively easy to understand, after all, Bae Chengyi is the head of the republic, and he will definitely leave office after the war, so there is no need to attend such an event that will have a significant impact on the post-war world pattern. It is even less necessary to stand with the leaders of the defeated countries and sign the same agreement. What is incomprehensible is that General Hua Jianfeng did not appear on the list. You must know that even in the eyes of the vast majority of officers and soldiers of the Republic Army, Hua Jianfeng's contribution in this war is no less than Yuan Chenhao. It can be said that the two of them are the two pillars of the republic. What's more, because Pei Chengyi himself is a very shrewd and talented army commander, Yuan Chenhao has always been restrained, and Hua Jianfeng's position is irreplaceable. Of course, in the war against the United States, the navy's contribution far exceeded that of the army. It can be seen from this that it is not Yuan Chenhao who is most qualified to participate in the surrender ceremony on behalf of the Republican ** team and sign the surrender instrument of the United States. It's Hua Jianfeng. The problem is that Hua Jianfeng's official status is only that of the naval adviser to the state head of the republic, not the chief of the general staff, and he does not even have a formal military position. There is one more point that cannot be overlooked. That is, Hua Jianfeng is a few years older than Pei Chengyi. will definitely retire after the end of the war, and Yuan Chenhao is still young enough to follow Pei Chengyi into politics even if he takes off his military uniform. Obviously, not going to attend the surrender ceremony is not because Hua Jianfeng doesn't want to go. Instead, he gave this opportunity to show up to Yuan Chenhao. As compensation, the surrender was signed not on land, but on the Navy's warship, and on the open deck of a capital ship, in order to demonstrate the Navy's great contribution to the war against the United States and the Navy's brilliant achievements.

Of course, the point is not who qualifies for the surrender ceremony, but the struggle behind the surrender ceremony.

The most striking thing is not that Hua did not go to the Chesapeake Bay, but that European representatives appeared on the list and participated in the signing ceremony as the main victorious nation. Other words. Europe's significant contribution to this war was recognized by the republics. Although in reality, Europe's contribution to this war is not as good as India's. You must know that India has provided about one-third of the grain, one-quarter of the minerals, more than 20 percent of the clothing and tents, nearly 10 percent of the medicines, and more than 50 million laborers, most of whom work in the ports and war material centers in India, and only a small number are sent overseas, and they are also the material transit centers of the group in the Indian Ocean. More importantly, India has taken on the task of rebuilding behind the bloc station, providing a large amount of materials for reconstruction to many of the bloc member countries, including the Republic. But in the ranking of the signing ceremony, the European representatives were behind the representatives of the republics and had a higher status than India. It also passed through other intensive group members.

Suffice it to say, if this is not the arrangement of the authorities of the republic. It would certainly be difficult for other Member States to accept.

While giving Europe enough face, the authorities of the Republic did not budge an inch on issues closely related to substantive interests, for example, until the beginning of the planning of the surrender ceremony, the Republic did not agree to send European troops to the North American continent, that is, there was no need for the European legion to undertake the occupation task. In contrast, the republic not only allowed major member states such as Pakistan, Iran, and Sudan to send troops to occupy the United States and Canada, but also allowed minor members such as Iraq, Syria, Kenya, and Nigeria to share the fruits of victory. In fact, this is the fundamental reason why the members of the intensive bloc tolerate the results of the European partition, that is, Europe gains only reputation and no substantive benefit.

Obviously, this became the direct cause of the rapid confrontation between the republic and Europe after the war, and became the polarity of the world.

In a sense, a Europe that did not reap enough benefits from the war would never willingly watch the war end. Therefore, the European authorities absolutely do not want the United States to give up resistance and surrender to the republic, and if there is an opportunity, Europe will destroy the hard-won peace!

Peace that has not shed enough blood is obviously not stable enough!
