Juice Army Ancient Only. It can be suspected that the ultimate goal of the Republic in this war is Dishan.

As early as Yo Yo, when the authorities of the Republic began to prepare for the war and began to draw up war plans, they predicted the outcome of the war. To be precise, it was a plan for the way to end the war. According to rumors that could not be confirmed. At that time, the authorities of the Republic summarized the possible outcomes and divided them into five categories according to their severity, and planned for each of these five outcomes.

Worst of all, there is no worse than fighting a devastating world war with the United States. In the circumstances of the time. There is only one scenario in which such an outcome occurs, and that is that the war breaks out early, and neither the strategic defense systems of the Republic nor the United States have taken shape, and they do not have the ability to intercept the opponent's strategic ballistic missiles. It is impossible to guarantee its own security in a nuclear war. Although the chances of such a possibility are slim, after all, it is unlikely that the Republic and the United States will go to war without a chance of winning, but if it appears, the world will be destroyed.

Obviously, in this case, no one is really a winner.

As far as the authorities of the republic are concerned, if the war breaks out before the fierce year, the first thing to consider is not to defeat the United States, but to preserve the hope of the nation, that is, whether or not a part of the people can survive. Live until the end of the war, until the nuclear winter passes. Rebuild Chinese civilization.

This is a very heavy topic. But it's a question that has to be considered.

According to rumors, the National Physics Experiment Center of the Republic exists for this purpose. In the words of the outside world, even if the world is destroyed, even if the nuclear winter lasts for a thousand years, the National Physics Experiment Center can ensure the survival of 200,000 people with its state-of-the-art controlled fusion nuclear power plant and a large number of supporting facilities. Theoretically, it only takes a few hundred people to continue the reproduction of a race. 200,000 people can be in one. It will take two to three generations to rebuild civilization in a completely barren world and ensure that humanity can continue to control the planet.

Of course, there are many supporting facilities related to it.

In addition to the National Physics Experiment Center, there is also the "Qiong Building." space station, as well as the "Guanghan Palace." Lunar base. The former can accommodate up to four people for decades, while the latter can provide permanent living space for a concave and will not require additional resources for fifty years.

Although the authorities of the republic have never admitted to preparing for "extermination", there are some things that prove that the authorities of the republic were indeed prepared, and very well prepared. For example, before the Daogou year, the ratio of men and women to the staff of the National Physical Experiment Center was about 3. Three of the staff members are male. From the beginning of the field. The proportion of female staff began to rise to almost half in the year and 70 per cent in the calendar year. More than twice as many as male members. Leaving aside the ability of men and women to work, women are much more important than men in terms of survival and reproduction in extreme situations.

All in all, the authorities of the republic are definitely preparing for the "pinch", but not externally.

The next worst outcome is the destruction of one side or the other. Of course, from the standpoint of the republic, it naturally refers to the destruction of the United States in the war.

The destruction we are talking about here is absolute destruction.

Militarily speaking, even after the Republic withstood the strategic attack of the United States, the United States was not able to withstand the strategic attack of the Republic, and the mainland was baptized by nuclear warheads and almost completely destroyed.

There is no doubt that this is definitely not a good outcome.

Although theoretically speaking, the destruction of the United States only requires about o megaton nuclear warheads, and this level of energy diffusion will not cause a serious nuclear winter, and even if it will have an impact on the climate, it will last for a maximum of one to two years, and this level of climate change will not have too much impact on human civilization and will not spread to the extent of extinction. But the United States is not Japan, and the nuclear warhead that explodes in the atmosphere is not a blown up nuclear power plant. If the United States were to be attacked by a nuclear attack and destroyed by a nuclear attack, the first thing the authorities of the Republic would have to think about would be not war, but post-war relief.

After a devastating nuclear strike, the mother is undoubted. The United States will be completely defeated.

Because it has a relatively vast territory and is a continental country, the United States will not collapse like Japan, but will import chaos and turmoil into neighboring countries, causing regional turmoil and even plunging the entire American continent into war.

If the republic fails to stop this upheaval, the Western Hemisphere will turn into hell and the victories achieved will lose their meaning.

The only way to change the outcome is to quickly help the United States out of its predicament, save those desperate Americans, let them see hope, and let them come to their senses.

In response to this result, the authorities of the republic have also made corresponding preparations.

According to some information declassified after the war, as early as the year of Tian, the republic was in the name of preparing for war. In the form of commissioned production, with a few Indian grain enterprises, India was already the world's largest "synthetic grain producer" at that time, with seven of the world's top ten grain production enterprises, and the annual industrial production of grain fed more than half of the Indians, and was also exported to dozens of countries, especially the quality of life is not high. African countries, which needed large quantities of food to cope with the famine, signed contracts to expand production, while the authorities of the republic promised to buy all surplus food at the agreed price. Because the execution of these contracts was scheduled for the calendar year, that is, from that year onwards, the grain produced by the Indian grain enterprises would be shipped to the republic, so the U.S. intelligence agencies had always believed that the republic would go to war in the calendar year. Despite these amounts, "the small amount of grain was used in the frontier lands, such as in front of the fields and households, the Republic Hail Prefecture provided hundreds of millions of tons of grain to the African allies, helped more than a dozen African countries solve the problem of famine, and also helped the Republic in combat operations on the African continent." Subsequently, the authorities of the Republic also provided large sums of food aid to Colombia and Bolivia in South America, which Bolivia eventually entered the war as an ally. But judging from the situation in the past year, the authorities of the republic are certainly not ordering so much food to help the poor countries of Africa and Latin America, but to prepare for a larger plan, which includes helping the war refugees of the United States to survive the difficulties.

Thankfully, this did not happen.

After eliminating the threat of nuclear war, the third possibility is to fight a large-scale ground war with the American team on the American soil before victory comes. There is no doubt that this will not be an easy war.

Because the first two scenarios are very likely, when making war plans. This is the situation that was first taken into account by the authorities of the Republic.

According to some information released after the war, in the first war plan drawn up in Yo year, the authorities of the Republic put a ground war on the American soil in the first place. Yuan Chenhao also mentioned in his memoirs that from the very beginning, the Republic was ready to land on the American mainland.

It is obviously not an easy task to defeat the American ** team in the United States.

Not to mention the United States, even landing in Australia is enough to make the republic retreat. According to conservative pre-war estimates, if a ground battle had to be fought on the American mainland, the ground forces alone would need to persuade Wan. And that's not even counting air and sea power, as well as much larger support forces. If you count all the troops. It would take at least 10,000 people to occupy the continental United States!

It can be said that this estimate is very conservative.

You must know that by the end of the year, the population of the United States will exceed 800 million, making it the third most populous country in the world, after India and the Republic. In order to conquer Russia, which had a population of only a small number, the Republic sent more troops than everybody. Among them, the strength of the front-line combat units exceeded 10,000. Although Russia is a much larger country and smaller, most of the Far East is sparsely populated, and the actual combat area is only about one-third of Russia's land area. The United States is not the same as Russia. With the exception of the Midwest, most of the United States has a relatively balanced population distribution. That is, the actual theater of operations on the US home battlefield passed over Russia. Count more than 3 times the population. Even if the combat effectiveness of the republican ** team has been greatly improved, it will need to use three times the number of troops equivalent to the capture of Russia.

In other words, the number of troops required to occupy the United States is at least 40,000, of which the combat troops are not less than Jiutian Wan.

According to information published after the war, at the beginning of the fourth year. In accordance with the instructions of the Supreme Command, the General Staff of the Republic locked in the investment of troops in the United States when planning the war on the mainland of the United States. Because the US mainland is very far away from the mainland of the Republic, even if sea transportation is more convenient than land transportation, and the proportion of logistics support personnel is higher than that of fighting against Russia, the total investment of troops will only be more than 40,000 in the case of a twofold increase in combat troops.

Affected by this, from the second half of the year. The republic adjusted its war plans.

In any case, fighting a large-scale ground war on the American soil would be an absolute disaster for the Republican Army, especially the Republican Army. According to unconfirmed information, Pei Chengyi did not veto the use of weapons of mass destruction when he approved the combat operation against the United States at the end of the year. That is, if the war is fought too fiercely, out of the protection of the republican **. It is very likely that the Republican ** team will use weapons of mass destruction, including tactical nuclear weapons, on the battlefield to add to the course of the war.

If it really comes to this point, this war is not only a tragedy for the Republicans, but also a tragedy for the Americans.

As a sub-optimal option, ending the war with strategic bombing without landing on the continental United States became the Western outcome.

In a sense, this is also the main direction of the efforts of the authorities of the Republic.

Although there are many problems in defeating the United States by means of strategic bombing, it is not only difficult to bring millions of officers and soldiers home alive, but also to overcome even the biggest problems.

The biggest problem with strategic bombing is that the United States is too big.

Actual combat has long proven that for a country with an excessively large land area, the significance of strategic bombing is not obvious, and it will even make the bombing side pay unbearable losses. Historically, it was only a few small countries that were destroyed by bombing. And mainly isolated island nations. Not to mention dealing with a country like the United States, which has a complete indigenous air defense system, even many years ago, when the Republic occupied almost all the advantages, it did not defeat India, which is about one-third of the area of the United States, through a large-scale strategic bombing, but dispatched a million troops to defeat India in a large-scale ground war. At that time, the Republic did not intend to use bombing to defeat India, nor did it want the army officers and soldiers to make sacrifices, but after weighing the pros and cons, it made the decision to fight a ground war.

Strategic bombing is more difficult against a country like the United States.

If nothing else, in order to blow up the United States, at least tens of thousands of bombers need to be mobilized and hundreds of millions of ammunition will be consumed. According to information published after the war. Just turning the eastern part of the United States, east of the Alapachian Mountains, into ruins, would require 10 million sorties, and 100 million sorties would be based on 10,000 sorties, and according to the average loss rate of bombers during the war, this would mean the loss of about 30,000 bombers, with an average loss rate of 3 per 1,000, that is, three per 1,000 sorties. There is no doubt that such huge losses made the bombing more than worth the cost. You must know that the republic is in full swing, and the annual production of bombers is only more than 20,000. Comparatively, ammunition consumption is even more staggering. Leaving aside for the time being how many resources are needed to produce two tons of ammunition and supplies, just to transport these ammunition supplies to the front line requires a merchant ship with a cargo capacity of 10,000 tons, that is, a fleet of bladed merchant ships sailing back and forth. Because there will be losses during the voyage, and the merchant ships themselves also need to consume materials, plus the materials consumed by other troops, the ammunition thrown to the United States only accounts for about the actual consumption of ships, that is, the materials that need to be transported are not B tons, but B tons. In this way, even if the Republic invests in supporting the fleet, it must ensure that each fleet runs back and forth within the year.

Organizing, transporting, distributing and managing so much material is absolutely a driving feat.

Exactly, before the march into the United States. The Republic occupied Diego Garcia, took control of the Seychelles, ceded False Bay to South Africa, swept West Africa, captured the Cape Verde Islands, marched into the Little Andreas Islands, and stormed Puerto Rico. All this is in preparation for entering the United States.

The problem is that, ideally, the best base for advancing into the United States would be Cuba, not Puerto Rico.

Don't say anything else. If large-caliber electromagnetic guns with a range of more than 1,000 meters can be deployed in the northwest region of Cuba, they can destroy all the towns south of the line, from Norfolk, Virginia, to Nashville, Tennessee, to Little Rock, Arkansas, to Houston, Texas, making the United States the richest. It is also the area with the highest concentration of population that has become a no-man's land.

This is absolutely not bragging, when the bombing of Australia, the Republic Navy proved the power of long-range artillery with its actions.

What's more. Strategic bombers deployed in Cuba can take off with maximum bomb load. Bombed every U.S. state except Alaska and Hawaii, and guaranteed to fly an average of one sortie per day for several months.

Cuba can also serve as a base for escort fighters, covering strategic bombers deployed on sea base groups.

If necessary, Cuba could even become an advance base for the ground forces of the Republic.

All in all, whether it is a strategic bombing or a ground war, the war is ended. The Republic had to go into Cuba and use it as a springboard to the American mainland.

It is precisely in this way that Cuba is one of the ultimate goals of the republican ** operation.

Although there is a fifth situation, that is, before the strategic bombing begins in full swing, as long as the Republic can prove that victory can be achieved through strategic bombing, the US authorities will, under the pressure of great war, especially total annihilation, accept the surrender conditions offered by the Republic and end the war by the surrender of the United States, but this is not very likely, after all, it is difficult for a country with a population of the second to surrender before it has tasted the bitterness. Moreover, the most effective way to make the United States taste the bitterness and convince the Americans that the United States has lost the war is strategic bombing. To put it bluntly, strategic bombing is teaching the United States and working to avoid a ground war.

With the Republican ** marching into Puerto Rico. There is no sign of surrender for the United States, and the fifth possibility is essentially in vain.

In this case, the authorities of the republic can only consider the fourth possibility, which is to let the United States authorities make a decision to surrender before they have to send in ground forces.

To do this, the Republic had to march into Cuba. And the sooner the better.

At the end of the year, the Navy of the Republic was the first to enter the waters southeast of Cuba through the Strait of Jamaica and shelled the US military base at Guantanamo before leaving.

Although the fighting in Puerto Rico was not over at this time. However, the United States authorities have recognized that Cuba is a strategic point that must be defended. Affected by this, the US authorities made an extremely bold decision to let the four main fleets, which had just formed their forces, go south to join up with the two main fleets that had previously participated in the naval battle of the Cape Verde Islands, and stand by in the Florida Strait north of Cuba to prepare to meet the Republican naval fleet heading north.

Because it is backed by the mainland, the US Navy did not dispatch an air fleet and did not deploy a sea base to the south.

Faced with the challenge of the American army, the Republic Navy had no choice but to go north to fight. To put it simply, the presence of the American fleet blocked the Republic's march into Cuba. Until the threat of the American fleet is eliminated, the Republic will not risk sending troops to Cuba, and Cuba will not risk entering the war.

Only by seizing sea supremacy can the invasion of Cuba be meaningful.

To this end, the Navy of the Republic dispatched almost all of its combat forces in the Atlantic, namely eight main fleets, four air fleets, and six sea base groups.
