Brigadier General Davis's surrender made John? Major General Pershing was hit very hard, and his original confidence collapsed at this moment. (.com) After the loss of Brigadier General Davis's army, the Second and Third Armies of the American Army stationed in Mexico to fight in Mexico could be regarded as completely annihilated, leaving only one First Army. Moreover, the losses of the First Army were not small, at the beginning of the Chinese cavalry brigade was defeated by a 15th Division, and in the later delayed battles, it also lost a lot of troops, and now the total strength is only less than 40,000 men.

Seeing that both the Second and Third Armies were wiped out by the Chinese, even the Supreme Commander of the American Army in Mexico, John ? Lieutenant General Bates all surrendered, and the commander of the First Army, James Brown? Major General Bell, naturally, did not have the courage to fight any further. Even John? Major General Pershing repeatedly stated that the Chinese are running out of weapons and ammunition, and as long as the First Army launches an attack on the squadron, it will definitely be able to win in the end. But for John? Major General Pershing's Jianyì, James? How could Major General Bell listen. At that time, he led his army out of Ohocaliente and retreated all the way north, until he retreated to Saltilo in the north.

On March 10, the 12th Division of the Chinese Army landed in Mexico and arrived on the battlefield five days later. At the same time, supplies, weapons and ammunition mobilized from Mexico City to the north were also delivered, which once again restored the squadron's combat effectiveness. However, the United States, in the midst of the erosion of the war in Mexico, once again transferred two armies from the country to strengthen the defense of the northern region of Mexico. Moreover, the U.S. military doesn't seem to have any intention of going south, they have been scared by the squadron. Even if the strength of the squadron is several times that of the squadron, they will not dare to take the initiative to attack anymore!

And the squadron, the losses in the previous stage are not small. In particular, the 11th Division of the Army is nearly half a thousand, and the supplementary troops need to be mobilized from within the country. At the same time, the officers and men were generally physically and mentally exhausted, and their combat strength was also greatly affected. For the time being, the squadron is no longer able to launch a large-scale attack. For a time, the war in northern Mexico calmed down. China and the United States have entered a stalemate in northern Mexico.

In mid-March, news of the defeat of U.S. forces in northern Mexico and the capture of tens of thousands of people caused an uproar throughout the United States. Some militants, demanding that the United States send more troops. Drive all the Chinese into the sea to feed the fish. However, many more organized anti-war marches. In particular, the relatives of the captured officers and soldiers demanded that the government immediately hold talks with the Chinese side to rescue their relatives to the United States. For a moment, Theodore? The Roosevelt administration was made very wolfy!

"We want peace, not war!" "Please save our loved ones!"

Hundreds of Americans, holding signs. Protest in front of the White House. The guards of the White House, forming a human wall, barricaded the Americans outside the White House. At the same time, the guards stationed at the White House. Ready to fight, they will open fire whenever these people dare to storm the White House. Of course, they don't want that to happen. In the event of bloodshed in front of the White House. Then this government will be blamed by the people!

Inside the White House, President Theodore? Inside Roosevelt's office. Cabinet members are discussing how to respond to the current crisis. Cigars burned, filling the office with smoke. Theodore? President Roosevelt's beautiful female secretary has long since been hidden!

Theodore? President Roosevelt stood by the window, looking at the crowd of protesters outside the White House. Even though the windows were closed, he seemed to be able to hear the protests. This made him feel very bad, and he couldn't understand why it was like this!

Theodore? President Roosevelt lowered the curtains, returned to his place, glanced at the cabinet members, and said, "Tell me, what are we going to do now?" Newspapers all over the United States, almost blaming the army for its defeat in northern Mexico! ”

"Your Excellency, I'm very sorry! We still underestimate the combat power of the Chinese. Although they only have a third of our strength, they can still defeat us easily. It seems that the gap between us and the Chinese is still very large! "War Minister Elihu? Rout said first. The war was fought like this, and it made him lose face! Relying on its strong industrial strength, the strength of the US Army has developed greatly in recent years, and at least in terms of weaponry, it is not far from the equipment of the Chinese Army. However, the final result was still a major defeat of the U.S. military, which made Eli Hugh? Rutter and the generals of the U.S. Army felt very ashamed!

In this war that took place in northern Mexico, the strength of the U.S. military was three times that of the squadron, and it was still fighting at home, but it was still beaten by China all over the place. One can imagine what kind of impact this will have in the United States!

"The strength of the Chinese army, this whole world knows, except for the German army, I am afraid that no country's army can compare with them!" However, since we see the gap, we have to catch up. The current defeat is not terrible, once we break out into a full-scale war with China, and still lose to the Chinese, that is the most terrible! "Theodore? President Roosevelt said.

"Your Excellency, the Chinese do not seem to have any intention of starting a full-scale war with us. They have stopped attacking! "Secretary of State, John? Hay said.

"Just because you don't attack now doesn't mean you won't. Although the Chinese defeated us, their losses were not small. Reinforcements from an infantry division of the Chinese have arrived in northern Mexico. In addition, according to the information we have received, the Chinese will send an army from the mainland to the eastern Pacific region, which may be deployed to Hawaii or directly to Mexico! "War Minister Elihu? Rutter said!

Hearing that the Chinese continued to increase their troops, the cabinet members present were a little nervous. Although, the United States can also continue to increase its troops. However, the total strength of the US Army is only 600,000, and in addition to the troops defending the West Coast, it can draw up to 400,000 troops. 200,000 people have been sent to northern Mexico, and more than 100,000 have already been lost. If the Chinese continue to increase their troops, then the United States can only immediately mobilize and prepare for a big war with the Chinese!

"Can you find out how many troops this support army of the Chinese has?" Theodore? President Roosevelt asked. If it were only one or two divisions, perhaps the Chinese did not have the idea of fighting a full-scale war. If it is a group army, then the United States has to defend against it!

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency. The actions of the Chinese are very secretive, we have not received exact intelligence at the moment! However, our army will be secretly mobilized first, and we need at least 25 more divisions to ensure the security of the country! "War Minister Elihu? Rout said.

"Alright! The Army can mobilize! "Theodore? Roosevelt thought for a moment, then said. No matter what China's intentions are, the United States is ready, it is always right!

"Your Excellency President, if we start mobilizing, will we give the Chinese a wrong signal and intensify the contradictions between the two sides?" Secretary of State, John? Hay said worriedly. You know, it's very likely that this will happen. It is entirely possible that China will take the U.S. mobilization as a preparation for war and act accordingly. In this case, the possibility of a major war between China and the United States will be greatly increased!

"Your Excellency, we will try to keep it as secret as possible!" Minister of War Elisius? Rout said. He also knows that now is not the time for a big war with China, and the United States, whether it is the army or the navy, is not ready!

"Guys, why can't we do it the other way? Do you have to fight with the Chinese? Now we are not ready for a full-scale war, and the Chinese are the same. Otherwise, they would not have restrained their military investment in Mexico. You know, in the war a few years ago, they were enough to support hundreds of thousands of people fighting on our west coast. In a few years, the Chinese can at least support more than 500,000 troops to fight in the Americas! If the Chinese put in 500,000 troops at once, will we be able to resist it? "Secretary of the Navy William? Henry? Moody's said. In this war, the navy played little role. As for the commander of the East Coast Fleet of the US Navy, William? Admiral Benson's plan to escort the U.S. Army to land in central Mexico and take Mexico City was also rejected for fear of provoking a direct all-out war between China and the United States!

"If we make peace with the Chinese now, will the Chinese accept it?" Finance Minister L.M. Shaw also asked. When the war broke out, it was all about money! China and the United States have been fighting each other in northern Mexico for a short time, but a large amount of money has been spent like flowing water, which makes him very distressed!

"If the Chinese really don't want to start a full-scale war with us, perhaps, they will accept peace talks." What's our bottom line, though? "Secretary of State, John? Hay asked. At present, the United States is in a disadvantageous position in the war, and if it wants to win peace talks, I am afraid that it will pay a certain price!

"We can acquiesce in the formation of a new government in Mexico. However, we have a few states in northern Mexico in our hands! In this way, the security of the United States can be guaranteed! "Theodore? President Roosevelt said. He firmly believes that China and the United States will have a war in the future. After China acquires Mexico, it will inevitably pose a serious threat to the United States. If it can get a few states in the north of Mexico, it will at least allow the United States to build a line of defense abroad!
