One after another, T4 Wolf tanks emerged from the belly of the transport, drove onto the boardwalk, and then drove the road to the port of Guò to the barracks, which had already been prepared. Along the way, an infantry division of the Chinese Army has completed the jǐng ring, ensuring that the arrival of these tanks will not be leaked.

The T4 Wolf light tank was followed by the T5 Cheetah medium tank. The armored brigade of the 2nd Army of the Army arrived today, followed by the armored brigade of the 6th Army, the armored brigade of the 7th Army and the armored brigade of the 8th Army.

Marshal Zhao Bowen and the commanders of several group armies stood on the pier, looking at these tanks rumbling onto the pier, and their emotions were surging. That's why they were able to rest and recuperate calmly and let the U.S. military reinforce the defensive line. No matter how strong the U.S. military's defense line is, in front of these steel monsters, it is no different from paper paste. The previous appearance of the Air Force made the Americans and even the rest of the world military and politicians drop their jaws, and this time it was the turn of the Army's armored units. They can be sure that the shock brought by the armored forces will not be less than that of the fighters of the Air Force.

As early as 1907, after the armored units of the Chinese Army were formed in the Praetorian Guard, China has been secretly developing armored forces. Although, the main tanks are still the T4 Wolf light tank and the T5 Cheetah medium tank. But with the advancement of technology. The xìng performance of these two tanks has also been greatly improved. The main thing is that the reliability has improved a lot. No, after a battle, most of the tanks will lie down because of a breakdown. Arguably. Over the years, the main task of the Empire's mechanical engineers has been to improve the reliability of these two tanks. As for the development of heavy tanks, progress has been relatively slow. From the current point of view, the T4 "Wild Wolf" light tank and the T5 "Cheetah" medium tank alone can meet the needs of the armored forces of the Chinese army. Before the advent of weapons capable of threatening these two tanks, the armored forces of the Chinese army were less eager for heavy tanks.

After seeing the might of the armored units in the exercises, the commanders of the various armies demanded that their units be equipped with armored units. However, because of the high cost of building armored units, it has not been passed. Ultimately. A compromise approach was adopted, and with the exception of the 9th Army in the South Seas and the 10th Army in the Southwest, which were only equipped with a small number of T4 Wild Wolf light tanks, the rest of the armies each formed an armored brigade. Each armored brigade is equipped with a tank battalion equipped with 72 T5 Cheetah medium tanks, two tank battalions each equipped with 72 T4 Wild Wolf light tanks, two mechanized infantry battalions equipped with 36 Z4 wheeled fighting vehicles, and an artillery battalion, as well as a baggage battalion, engineer battalion, reconnaissance company, and Jǐng guard company. communications companies and field hospitals, etc. The total strength reached more than 8,600 people. Once formed, each armored brigade became the sharp-knife unit of every group army. Previously on the battlefield in Mexico. Because the terrain in the Sierra Madre do Sul region was not suitable for the operation of armored forces, the armies of the armies did not take part in the battle. Now that the defense line in the Sierra Madre do Sul has been breached, the terrain that follows is low hills, flat Mexican plateaus or plains, etc., and it is very difficult for armored forces to surprise them. All the Chinese generals on the battlefield in Mexico believe that this time, the Americans will be taught a lesson that they will never forget!

"Marshal, I really want to see what the Americans' defense line looks like when it is broken through by our armored forces!" The commander of the 2nd Army, General Xie Dingkun, lamented. The Mexican battlefield will be the first actual battle after the formation of the armored forces of the Chinese Army. The U.S. Army has also become an experimental specimen of the armored forces of the Chinese Army. Everyone is looking forward to this battle. Everyone firmly believes that the Chinese side will definitely be able to win. The only thing that can't be determined is probably how big the results will be at that time.

"Haha! Soon we will be able to see. However, I think that by then our old opponent, Admiral Pershing, will definitely not be able to cry! Marshal Zhao Bowen said with a smile. His only concern was that after the arrival of several armored brigades, the consumption of the squadron would be further increased. These tanks and armored vehicles are all oil-eating tigers! The mere need to provide fuel for these tanks is enough to increase the pressure on the logistics troops a lot. Therefore, if you want to launch an attack on the US army, I am afraid it will have to wait for some time. Whether it is ammunition or supplies, it is necessary to have sufficient reserves, so as not to lose the chain due to the interruption of supplies at the height of the battle.

However, once the battle is won, the logistical pressure will be much lower when the front is advanced from central Mexico to northern Mexico. Compared to southwestern Mexico, the northern region of Mexico has much better transportation facilities. These were all when China was stationed in Mexico, and at the strong demands of China, Mexico invested a large amount of financial revenue in the construction of transportation facilities. Although the transportation infrastructure in northern Mexico is not comparable to that of the rest of the country, it is completely different from that of southwestern Mexico. The northern region of Mexico is the most suitable place for the Chinese Army's armored forces.

At that time, the Chinese Army only needs to capture a port on the coast of northern Mexico, and it will be able to build a logistics supply center for the squadron on the battlefield in Mexico. This will not only shorten the logistics supply line of the squadron a lot, but also further reduce the pressure on the logistics supply line with good transportation facilities. And this qiē was already considered by China several years ago. It can be said that at that time, China was already preparing for the defeat of the United States!

By noon, all the tanks of the armored brigade of the 2nd Army disembarked and entered the specially prepared barracks. Repairmen began to overhaul vehicles that had been transported by sea for long distances. After that, they will take the improvised road through the Sierra Madre do Sul through Guò to deploy to the front line. However, after the bumps of the improvised road through the Guò do Madre do Sul, no one knows for sure how many tanks will be able to go into battle. Even though tanks and vehicles are much more reliable today, the traffic conditions in southwestern Mexico are too harsh, which will undoubtedly make tanks and vehicles much more likely to break down.

Of course, even if only half of the tanks and combat vehicles were able to enter the battle, four armored brigades of tanks and combat vehicles would be enough to break through the central defense line built by the American army. The armored force has become the sharpest spear in the hands of Marshal Zhao Bowen, and there will be no problem in breaking through the defense line built by the US army.

After having lunch in Acapulco, exchanging views with the generals in charge of logistics, and issuing orders for the logistics troops to speed up the reserve of strategic materials, Marshal Zhao Bowen and the generals of several group armies embarked on the return journey back to Chilpansingo. After taking Chilpancingo, Marshal Zhao Bowen had already moved his headquarters here. At present, the Chinese army's troops have reached Iguala, less than 80 kilometers away from Cuernavaca, where the US military is heavily stationed. If it weren't for the lack of strategic materials in the squadron, perhaps the attack would have begun a long time ago.

On the evening of his return to Chilpansingo, Marshal Zhao Bowen held a pre-battle preparatory meeting. The commanders of several army groups participated.

"Everyone saw the arrival of the armored unit today, and their hearts are much more stable! What restricts us now is the problem of logistical support. As long as this problem is solved, we can launch an attack on the US military at any time. And, for sure, we will be able to win the US military. Therefore, before the start of the battle, our main task will be transferred to logistics. The engineering units of various ministries should step up the construction of material reserve warehouses and the widening of some roads, and at the same time, the construction of field airfields of the air force should also be accelerated. Only then will the Air Force be able to provide us with the most direct support! Marshal Zhao Bowen said. In the battle to break through the defense line of the US military in the Sierra Madre do Sul, the air force can be said to have made great contributions. Although the arrival of armored forces has given the army an extra trump card, the assistance of the air force is still indispensable. With the cooperation of the air force, the army can achieve victory at the lowest cost.

"Marshal rest assured, now everyone is full of confidence. As long as the logistics are well prepared, we can immediately launch an attack on the US military. This time, the 6th Army can still be the vanguard of the whole army! The commander of the 6th Army, General Gao Chang, said immediately.

"Lao Gao, you're not authentic! Last time, it was the 6th Army as the main attacking force, and this time it will be our 8th Army's turn! General He Bingju, commander of the 8th Army, said. In the battle to break through the defense line of the Sierra Madre do Sul, the direction of the 8th Army's attack was the Balsa River. With the assistance of the Navy, it was easy to break through the defense line of the US troops, and there was no war to be fought, and the results achieved were relatively small. Moreover, the 8th Army is the descendant of Marshal Zhao Bowen, Minister of War, and this time it will be the turn of the 8th Army.

"Don't argue, this time it's going to be a big game, and we're going to plan for the biggest results. At that time, several group armies will go to the battlefield, so don't fight! Marshal Zhao Bowen said. When on the defensive line of the Sierra Madre do Sur, the main force of the US army slipped away, and this time Marshal Zhao Bowen obviously would not let the main force of the US army slip away lightly!
