Two days later, Jiang Yunzhi sent back the news through the radio that the Thayer Second Brigade, which had set off ahead of schedule, encountered the Eighth Cavalry Division of the Australian Army in Wumera, a small town on the shore of Lake Ailan, a day later, and the bombers of the Air Force had discovered the enemy's cavalry units in advance, so the Second Brigade got off the train 30 kilometers away and arranged positions along the railway line to block the Eighth Cavalry Division. The 8th Division's deplight was not enough to describe the 8th Division's plight, and the 2nd Brigade immediately attacked on all fronts, firing all its power, crushing the 8th Cavalry Division and seizing the Wumera railway station. Ten hours later, the 2nd Panzer Regiment arrived in the small town of Wumerda, the tank armored car was not unloaded, and the commander was telegraphed for a new order.

After Qian Zhihao read the telegram, Xiao Guoxing hurriedly went to find the map, while Hans shrugged, "One hundred and sixty-two kilometers." ”

Qian Zhihao didn't react, and asked, "What?" What one hundred and sixty-two? ”

"Ummera is still one hundred and sixty-two kilometers away from the port of Augusta, the Eighth Cavalry Division has been routed, and Augusta is already an empty city."

Zhong Yi raised his head sharply and stared at Hans, who smiled bitterly, "I promise, Commander." My previous station was in Port Piri, and the 18th Brigade was stationed in Adelaide. With the exception of the 18 Brigade, there are no more troops left in South Australia. ”

"Zhihao, order Jiang Yunzhi not to get off the train, and the train will go directly into Port Augusta; The 2nd Brigade then followed up and told Thayer to control the port and the main departments in the city, pay attention to the discipline of the troops, and not disturb the people; The Air Command Department was informed that early tomorrow morning, all two bomber groups would be dispatched to bomb Adelaide. ”

Looking at the expressionless commander, Hans panicked suddenly, and he suddenly regretted telling this information truthfully. "Commander ......"

Zhong Yi waved his hand and interrupted the anxious Hans, "I'm not a butcher, but this is war!" Hans, you should understand that this is a life-and-death war between us and the federal government, and the bombing of Adelaide is to avoid going to bomb Melbourne and bomb Sydney in the future! ”

Adelaide, the capital of South Australia, is also the fourth largest city in Australia, and the world-famous wine and art center, with a population of more than 600,000. Unlike other Australian cities, Adelaide was not a penal colony in the 19th century, but a city of immigrants. Most of the settlers were Anglo-Saxons, and the original Kauna tribe had long since been driven into the Adelaide mountains, and only a few hundred remained. As a result, the pace of life and customs in the city is almost the same as in the British Isles, with a large number of Victorian and Edwardian buildings in the city. For example, the double-towered Anglican Cathedral seen by Lieutenant Colonel Gao Jian, the leader of the first bomber group, is particularly conspicuous among the low-rise buildings of two or three stories in Adelaide.

The voices of the other pilots of the group came from the communicator, "Captain, map comparison, that's right, this is the target, request to drop the bomb." ”

Gao Jian frowned, he didn't like this kind of unchallenged bombing operation very much, he preferred to drive the fighter to fight the enemy aircraft in the air, bombing the ground personnel and buildings without resistance, where could it compare to the thrill of shooting down the enemy plane, "This two-tower church is mine, the others are free to move, remember, we only have twenty minutes of bombing time, throw all the debris that can be thrown away here, and then immediately return in formation." ”

"Don't worry, Captain, not only the church, but also the nuns in that church. Hahaha......"

When I heard the arrogant laughter in the formation channel, I knew that it was Ge Chenguang's kid again, "Damn!" Gao Jian grinned, "The commander said, we have a chance to return to China sooner or later, this Yanma has too much body odor, I have to wait until I go back to marry a woman from our China!" ”

"Captain, will you stay in China then, or will you marry your daughter-in-law back to Australia?"

"Nonsense, haven't you heard from the commander? The name Australia will be changed sooner or later, and sooner or later it will be the territory of our Han people. Okay, stop talking nonsense, get ready to drop bombs! ”

The terrifying screams rang out again. And this time, it was the citizens of Adelaide who fell into hell, and the H-5 airborne electronic sight could make the drop of the bomb within 50 meters at a distance of 3,000 meters, while the high sword could easily control it within 30 meters. Two 250-kilogram bombs accurately smashed the twin towers of the Anglican Cathedral into a large hole, and then collapsed with a bang after two loud bangs. Within a dozen minutes, the same explosion resounded throughout Australia's most famous art capital, and elegant Adelaide was turned into a sea of fire, and Adelaide, which had never experienced war since its founding a hundred years ago, finally tasted the flames of war.

At the same time, the two H-5s of the 2nd Bomber Group also visited the camp of the 18th Brigade of the Australian Army stationed in Adelaide, and instead of aerial bombs, they dropped a large package of ultimatums that fell in the camp one after another: the 18th Brigade was limited to surrender unconditionally to the Red Police Force within 12 hours, and the bombing of Adelaide would continue after the deadline, and the 18th Brigade would also be attacked by the Red Police armored forces with all their might.

After receiving an order from the Uerdi command, the 2nd Panzer Regiment continued its movement through the Lake Ayland area until it entered the deserted port of Augusta railway station.

Standing on the empty platform, Jiang Yunzhi instructed the adjutant to send a telegram to the 2nd Brigade still in Wumera, asking them to speed up and board the train and hurry up to receive the port of Augusta; Then send a telegram to the commander: Our troops have occupied Augusta, there is no resistance from the Australian army, and we plan to continue the advance and reach Adelaide.

Soon two callbacks were received almost simultaneously, and Thayer's call back was: "Our department has boarded the train and will move at full speed." And the telegram from the Uerdi command made Jiang Yunzhi a little confused: your unit abandoned the Acheng combat mission and transferred to the eastern trunk line to capture Broken Hill by car through Port Piri. The capture of Acheng will be carried out by other forces.

Broken Hill? Where is this, to be honest, leaving the map, Jiang Yunzhi really can't understand these Australian place names, they are all small towns with thousands or even hundreds of people, and the place names are especially bitten, wait, just wait for the commander to say that Australia will be redivided into administrative regions.

Finally found Broken Hill on the military map, the railroad turned at Port Piri, a town of 20,000 people six hundred kilometers northeast, another six hundred kilometers! Jiang Yunzhi couldn't help but scold, "This is his grandmother's still fighting, this is taking a train around Australia, and the old man who takes the train is going to vomit!" The order didn't say anything, what's the use of asking our armored regiment to toss to that small place? ”

"Commander, Broken Hill is known as the silver capital, with a large amount of silver, lead, zinc, etc., ......"

"Yindu?" Before the adjutant finished speaking, Jiang Yunzhi's eyes widened, "Then it's still inkblot, hurry up and get in the car and go!" ”
