Chapter 387: What is an elite
In MacArthur's view, the battle in the west, because of the presence of the Nevada Line, would be much easier than the pressure on the American troops here in Phoenix in the south.
On the line of Phoenix and the Hira River, the Allied and American forces fought for positions on a daily basis with almost the accuracy of the meter. On the largest day, the total number of casualties on both sides reached more than 100,000, but Wang Tiehan's Youzhou Army only advanced the battle line by more than 100 meters.
As the largest inland city in the United States, Phoenix has a population that even exceeds that of the capital Washington, D.C., and after the outbreak of World War II, Phoenix quickly transformed from a city dominated by agriculture and logistics, relying on the military industry, to a new industrial city.
The numerous air and army bases and training centers in the region also greatly enhance Phoenix's strategic position. In addition, MacArthur has always used Phoenix as the command center of the western theater to build the defense system of the entire western United States, so there is no room for failure in both economic and military aspects.
On the Allied side, the Phoenix region was the birthplace of the Indoan fire Kam civilization around 700 AD. Moreover, in the Hou Xi plan, the so-called Fifth Route Army, after the landing, has evolved into a three-way breakthrough. In the west, the battle for the Nevada Line became a strategic indicator for both sides, and the Allied forces, which set out in Juarez, Mexico, and crossed the U.S.-Mexico border to attack the important town of El Horde in a short time, turned east and entered Texas. Mexican troops, in the battles in this direction, showed great combat effectiveness. Whether it was in the Battle of San Antonio or the Siege of Houston, the Han army and the army under the jurisdiction of the Dongying Governor's Mansion were not as brave as the Mexican army.
This made Lieutenant General Dong Zhihua, the commander of the allied forces in this direction, very surprised. If the Mexican army has such combat power, why did it cede more than 2 million square kilometers of land to the Americans?
Ten years after the founding of the Han Empire, the empire/military has become accustomed to expanding the territory and expanding the territory. Whether it is white or powerful, in the eyes of the Han army, there is nothing invincible, not even ...... In the eyes of today's Han army, there is really a little bit of superiority that "the great Han is invincible".
The psychology of a great power is not something that can be formed with GDP or some so-called propaganda. In the era of the rise of great powers, which one is not the front of the army, the blood-stained robe? An invincible army and a Han emperor who can do what he says make the Han people so proud and confident.
In Dallas, where the so-called cowboy spirit originated, when nearly half a million Allied troops were besieging the city on three sides with a great victory, the Americans finally stopped clamoring for a free spirit. Leningrad or Moscow is an example for them to follow.
The same story takes place in Phoenix, where the best fighters fight each other, and the most advanced technology in human history collides, but it is accompanied by the most primitive and cruel bloody fight.
General Wang Tiehan, who was the first to order the shooting, was praised by His Majesty as the commander of the Youzhou Legion in the Northeast, and when the Youzhou Legion, which inherited the soul of the Northeast Army, encountered the greatest test since the founding of the army, it showed amazing and admirable courage. Every meter of trenches and piles of ruins are the positions that the Youzhou Army and the American GIs are fighting for. When the Nanyang Army was not supported, when the Dongying Army suffered heavy casualties, only the Youzhou Army was holding on, and only the Han men fought to the death and did not retreat. One step of first-class blood, one meter and one corpse, on the banks of the Hira River, there is really no tactics and no strategy. After all the means have been exhausted, both sides are just holding on, and holding on until the other side can't hold on, then you are the winner.
Wang Tiehan insisted, the blood of the 100,000 Northeast Army, fought in the south and the north, and did not lose one of them. But in the Battle of Phoenix, he didn't know how many brothers would have a chance to return to the Northeast.
MacArthur also insisted that Phoenix should not be lost, and behind Phoenix was the Colorado Plain, and the flat terrain would be at the mercy of the Han army's armored forces.
Use every bullet, every fresh and young life to insist, and insist on the will of the nation or the ruler. America? The Han Empire? Or every rising power in history?
The Phoenix, Dallas, and Nevada Defenses, each of which touches the hearts of all Americans, and the recent developments in each of them have not failed to attract the attention of most people in the world?
The North American War, in the eyes of many, was a struggle for world hegemony.
Maybe the Germans didn't agree with this, but the Soviet Red Army told them with a powerful counteroffensive that it was not the turn of the Germans to talk nonsense in this world.
The one who has the right to point fingers is, of course, the Han Emperor Zhongyi.
The work of the Viceroyalty of the North Sea had already transitioned from strengthening the rule of the Reich in Siberia to assisting the Soviet government in resisting German aggression. When "Black Widow" appeared on the banks of the Volga under the pseudonym Katyusha rocket artillery; When the Siberian Tiger tank transforms into the T-34/85 and goes toe-to-toe with the Leopard; When the "Thunder" fighter was painted with the SU-21 mark and fought fiercely with the German "Black Knight", the Germans were actually getting farther and farther away from victory
However, Zhong Yi is not an all-powerful God. Even if, on most occasions, he is already a "son of God". Wasn't Jesus able to stop Judas's rebellion in the first place?
On the Soviet-German battlefield, any relaxation of the Han Emperor's arms export agreement would have a great impact on the battlefield. But in North America, the trend of war is by no one else.
The scientific and technological plundering of the Americans and the industrial level of the United States have exploded with great potential at the moment of national peril.
The scientific and technological level of the Red Police Base is no longer able to maintain its absolute lead over the United States. All the Allies could rely on was the superiority in population, national strength, and resources.
The course of the battles in Phoenix and Dallas is proof of this. In these two areas, the U.S. military has been able to achieve a balance of offensive and defensive power with the Allies by virtue of its territorial superiority. The war has changed from the beginning of the Allied forces to the current mutual attack and defense. In his latest telegram to the Han Emperor, Marshal Ye Weixun said: The Allied forces that entered the US territory along the Mexican border could not break through the US defenses in a short time, and the "Hou Xi" plan had been seriously blocked.
The only hope lies on the Western Front, in the mountain clusters commanded by General Zhang Houqun. Break through the U.S. Army's defense line in the Sierra Nevada, take the lead in breaking the U.S. Army's inland defense system, and push the front to the center of North America until the ultimate goal of the "Hou Xi" plan is achieved: the three-way army to encircle Kansas City.
Zhang Houqun said in a telegram to Ye Shuai: Such a situation does make people feel that Alexandria is there, but it is none other than me.
This kind of statement is a little speechless. But a confident attitude was exactly what the Allied General Command needed.
Of course, the other two Allied forces are in a stalemate, and it has become the consensus of the Allied top brass that it has broken through in the direction that seems to be the most difficult and the most unexpected for the US military. His Majesty also gave instructions on this: surprise the enemy, attack the enemy unprepared.
In other words, when it comes to colonial plunder, the Han people are far inferior to the Westerners, but when it comes to the art of war, who in the world dares to compete with the Han people?
In March 1944, the Indian Regiment and the Mountain Division of the Han Guards Regiment trained around San Francisco began to assemble. The Yangzhou Army, which was good at landing operations, took over the task of maintaining law and order in California and the establishment of the Indian state. The Liangzhou Regiment of the Great Han Dynasty, the 1st Army Corps of Nanyang, and the 2nd Korean Army Corps of the Dongying Colonial Area also marched to the mountains of Nevada after the landing.
The strength of the Allied forces in the western United States suddenly reached as many as 700,000. Of course, there is not a single predominantly white force in this area, and this intriguing phenomenon is no longer in reverie.
In the entire World War II, which began with the Nevada Line, the most classic and cruel mountain warfare became the focus of the world's attention. The battle for Melus Pass, north of Mount Whitney, the highest peak in the Sierra Nevada, was the bloodiest of the bloodiest of the day.
In this small pass, the Allied and American forces invested nearly 200,000 troops, and 300 planes participated in the battle. Nearly 200 Falcon gunships of the 102nd Air Cavalry Division of the Dahan Coastal Regiment were almost all destroyed here.
But until early April, control of the Melus Pass remained in the hands of U.S. forces. President Truman personally awarded the title of "Eagle of Melus" to the 5th Army of the U.S. Army, which was stationed at Melus.
In the eastern part of the United States, it is also rumored that the "Eagle of Melus" defeated the most elite troops of the Great Han Kingdom. However, the beautiful fairy tale of God bless America came to an abrupt end when the news of the Allied mountain cluster breaking through the Nevada line and attacking Carson City.
At the same time as the fierce battle of Melus shocked the world, one of the classics of the Han art of war, the secret crossing of Chen Cang, was staged again. In the American army, no one dared to believe that the Allied forces that had put in the air cavalry division at Melus were only a suspicious force. At the cost of 200 Falcons, just to convince the US military that the focus of the Allied attack was near Mount Whitney? Such a handicraft...... Isn't this really from the stars?
But Zhong Yi once again proved that he was not the professor of pediatrics, he was the emperor of the Han Dynasty who was the finishing touch of the dragon, and he was the son of the great Han Zhongxing Shenyou. 200 Falcon gunships, in other countries, that is an intolerable sacrifice. But in Dahan, that's just a month's capital income for the base. What's more, the crew of the Falcon was all white pilots. At a time when the military strength of the empire has already dominated the world, and the fire of the Han dynasty that is burning in His Majesty's heart is bound to soar to the sky, it is inevitable to reduce the white power in the empire.
No one knows why, at the time of the founding of the country, Zhong Yi relied so heavily on the power of white people. No one understands how difficult it will be to find a few non-pedantic and innovative talents in the devastated China.
Do you want to use those so-called arrogant literati who only know how to criticize rebellion and crusade with their pens to govern South China? Do you take the vague words of "come quietly and go quietly" as a famous phrase for governing the country, or invite those so-called elites who shout loudly in the ********, earn fame, and become traitors and lackeys to run the country?
Zhong Yi shook his head! Such a scum, rather hire Westerners. But if it is not of my race, its heart will be different. The rise of the Han Dynasty should be provoked by the Han man.
