Chapter 123: The March War XIV

The rain was coming, and the atmosphere around the shipyard immediately became tense. Although Uruguay's army is not large and has not experienced many wars, Yuan Ye, the head of the Naval Resistance Army in Uruguay, does not dare to be careless at all. Uruguay's small army is a regular army with a complete range of arms and a reasonable allocation of light and heavy weapons. The military strength of South American countries is not very strong, and the army of Uruguay is like the German Wehrmacht before the outbreak of World War II. After Germany's defeat in World War I, it was limited to 100,000 troops, but these 100,000 army places were fully utilized by the Germans, and almost every ordinary soldier could serve as a junior officer. Uruguay's military thinking is very similar to that of Germany, and it is clear to the Navy's resistance that such an offensive capability is definitely not something that the thousands of workers in the shipyard can resist. Not only did the workers lack training, but they had only rifles and a limited number of small cannons, none of which were light and heavy machine guns, not even hand grenades.

The contrast between strength and weakness is clear at a glance.

At this point, people are swordsmen and I am fish and meat, Professor Yuan Ye is responsible for the entire civil affairs of the Maritime Resistance Army, and at this time, his heart is heavy, 20,000 lives, and tens of millions of assets in the shipyard are pressed on him.

Yuan Ye is known for his knowledge, but he is definitely not a weak scholar. He has a lot of experience in his life, and he has definitely seen a lot of war scenes. When he was young, he lived in North Korea and lived with his uncle Yuan Shikai. As a teenager, he was already a counselor in military affairs. And after his adulthood, he experienced the most chaotic decades in the land of China.

Yuan Ye has a very clear understanding of the current crisis, although he has no front-line combat experience, but his judgment of the situation is very accurate. Not to mention the Uruguayan army, even the Uruguayan warships cruising the Río de la Plata have the ability to destroy the entire shipyard.

In the telegram, Yuan Ye and Li Guang had exchanged views many times. Before reinforcements arrived, the only way to delay time was to resort to passive defense and diplomacy. As for the tactics after the arrival of reinforcements, it is a matter for the staff of the Naval Resistance Army.

The shipyard has been cut off from the outside world, the roads on land are impassable, the waterways are also seen dead by warships, and now a huge shipyard cannot even get a small boat out. The reinforcements of the Maritime Resistance Army, thousands of miles away, were difficult to contact by the morning of the 14th.

According to the telegrams on the Baxia and Jairus, Yuan Ye judged that the two warships and one merchant ship should still be a thousand kilometers away, and they were in a straight line. In other words, it will take at least thirty hours for the reinforcements to reach Uruguay.

And there is still no hope for airlift reinforcements, not to mention that the two transport planes are still being repaired, and even the airport on Robinson Island is still being repaired overnight. The difficulty of using air support is not only that, but the greater difficulty is that the airport on the Uruguayan side is not under the control of the Naval Resistance Force, but is controlled by the small Uruguayan air force.

In such a situation, after Yuan Ye lost the security team, the only choice was if the Uruguayan army launched an attack, relying on the desperate resistance of the shipyard workers to win support for the arrival of reinforcements.

Professor Yuan, who is usually polite and polite, has nothing to do with Wen Liang at this time. This is the first time that Professor Yuan has appeared in front of everyone in the image of a military uniform. Mr. Yuan Ye, who has incomparably rich experience, knows that the most critical thing in this matter is the military heart. The workers of the shipyard must not be in a state of confusion, as soon as the morale of the army is unstable and the morale of the people is weakened, the enemy will immediately collapse as soon as he begins to attack, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

Seventy-five members of the security forces in Uruguay have been killed, and all the surviving fighters have been wounded. Guo Wei, the captain of the security team, who was originally disabled, was now shot again and was rescued from the line of fire by the people, and has been in a coma for three days.

Since there were no survivors in the second half of the battle between the security team and the Nazis, the shipyard did not know the contribution of the security team to the chaos at this time.

In the resistance battle that took place on 11 July, the security forces killed more than 150 Nazis at the cost of total annihilation, killing and wounding more than 200. As a result, the largest Nazi force in Montevideo suffered a fatal blow. After the security team ran out of bullets, they launched a final white-knuckle attack

, all fighters were killed.

In this war, the Nazis also saw the bravery of the Chinese. In the final hand-to-hand battle, the Europeans were in a nightmare with only 15 security guards who could launch a counterattack, but killed more than 30 Nazis in less than two minutes. Another aspect that frightened the Nazis was that at the end of the battle, the Chinese fought to the point that none of them surrendered. It's a terrible army.

And this is one of the reasons why the Uruguayan military did not dare to attack the shipyard easily - they wanted to reassess the combat effectiveness of the Chinese. If the attack is rash and the regular army is killed by three or four thousand Chinese workers, the joke will be big.

If that happens, it's not just a joke, it's a disaster, and it's hard to say whether Uruguay's political axe will be overturned. And the ensuing retaliation of the Naval Resistance Army will undoubtedly be bloody. There is now a quarrel within the Uruguayan political axe over this. However, without Dr. Larry's information channel, Professor Yuan could not accurately grasp the information, and could only get some clues from the radio station. Originally, on the 10th day, the Nazi drug faction within the Uruguayan political axe had already gained the upper hand, and the political axe was ready to seize the shipyard assets by force and expel the Chinese from the country.

However, after the armed attack on the Chinese people by Nazi violent elements was thwarted, controversy reigned in the Uruguayan parliament. These Nazi violents were not all civilians, but a large number of them were retired and active-duty soldiers. Guo Wei's security team suffered heavy casualties, but the casualty ratio was much lower than that of the Nazi violents, which was a deterrent to the radicals (Nazi drug tendencies) throughout Uruguay.

The security team has done their best, and the only thing the 20,000 Chinese can rely on now is their own guns.

Professor Yuen's move to stabilize the morale of the army was very simple, he himself wore a military uniform and carried a rifle to patrol in the middle of the improvised defensive position. At any time, the commander leads by example, which is the best way to stabilize the morale of the military. In the crowd, he talked to the workers or gave a few speeches, and these simple means temporarily stabilized the panicked people's hearts.

At this time, the naval resistance fleet was bumping on the ocean, and Huang Zhonghua was anxious at this time. If calculated only by the speed of the fleet, he should have reached Montevideo a day earlier.

But that's just the ideal. The sea is now stormy and the waves are blowing, and three ships are forced to dock and take shelter in a harbor on the east coast of South America.

The Naval Resistance Army lacked warships, and Li Guangneng had done his best to send such a small fleet. Baxia 2 plus Jairsa 2 and a merchant ship with a displacement of 2,000 tons.

In this small fleet, since Huang Zhonghua and Bao Gang are now both in the rank of captain, Li Guang gave a very clear order before setting off. Before reaching the waters of Uruguay, the supreme commander of the fleet was Huang Zhonghua. After arriving in Uruguay, the fleet commander was a company commander, Bao Gang.

In the storm, Huang Zhonghua and Bao Gang were very anxious. But under the power of nature, the two are helpless. You must know that the so-called two warships of the fleet are only small ships with a displacement of 600 tons, which are not suitable for ocean-going operations in the first place. A long run of thousands of nautical miles is an adventure in itself, and if you sail through a storm, it is not an adventure but a search for death. Even if they were anxious, these two people did not dare to act rashly.

Yuan Ye judged that the fleet was still more than 1,000 kilometers away from Uruguay, but in fact it was now less than 600 kilometers, and due to the influence of the storm, the telegraph signal was interfered with, and the two anti-dumping forces could not be contacted.

But it was this last few hundred kilometers that stumped Huang Zhonghua and Bao Gang, and the two couldn't wait to fly to Uruguay. By noon on the 14th, the fleet had been in the bay for forty-eight hours.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the signal corps unexpectedly received a telegram from Yuan Ye. But the messages were intermittent, and only one was discerned--- there were signs of an offensive on the part of the Uruguayan Army.
