The Southern Hemisphere Sun is in the north of the sky, but still rises slowly in the east.

Facing the fiery red morning sun, Zhong Yi stood straight in an open green jeep, silently watching one tank after another leave the gate of the base, and the military salute in his right hand was never put down.

The cavalry battalion left the base before it was still dark, and their goal was to block all the junctions in Kalgoorlie except Perth, and cut off the possible escape route of the Australian 17th Brigade.

Such a long-distance expedition is inevitable in the vast expanse of Australia. The vast majority of Australia's population is concentrated in coastal cities such as Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, etc., including Perth, the capital of Western Australia.

It wasn't until the last military card, also painted in dark green, left the gate of the base that Zhong Yi moved his already stiff body. It seems that it can't be done like this in the future, and the way the commander sends off with a military salute is indeed a great help to boost morale, but fortunately, the scale of the unit is still small now, and if you wait until the time of the construction of a large armored group army, you will have to play like this again, and it is estimated that you will have to be heroic first. There were many different opinions among the Red Police officers about the cavalry battalion's expedition, and of course most of them were worried. But Zhong Yi chose to believe in the deterrent power of tanks, the control of the soldiers of the guard squad, and of course, the huge benefits that cooperation with the base can bring to the Smolgun family. The process of accumulation of capital is a process of plunder, which is full of betrayal and trade, especially the wealth of the former colonizers in the 20th century, which was accumulated with the blood and sweat of the colonial people. For a consortium family like Smolgon, don't mention any ethnicity and skin color, they are all bargaining chips that can be traded, and the only thing that can impress them is two words: interests.

Supporting several white families, breaking the balance between whites by themselves, coupled with the deterrence of the powerful military force of the Red Police base, this is the road to occupy Australia planned by Zhong Yi. To put it more bluntly, it is the tank and the consortium, two legs to support the domination of Australia.

The road chosen by the reconnaissance vehicle to bypass the Maligesv Mountains was actually to go straight south in the Ayers Rock area, break along the outskirts of the mountains to an area 30 kilometers from the Golden Mile, establish a logistics base, gather tanks and infantry vehicles, and directly attack the Australian 17th Brigade on the outskirts of Kalgoorlie through the mining area.

The reason why the logistics base was chosen here is because Zhong Yi finally figured out that the control range of the red police base and the detectable range that the bird of paradise said are not the same thing, and the control range of each red police base car is the big circle with a radius of 100 kilometers, in this control range, the image displayed on the holographic screen can be accurate to the meter, which is a controllable range in the real sense, and the detection range of the 1,000 km radius is relatively watery, that is, it can be drawn into a more accurate holographic map. And it can detect the distribution of mineral deposits available for mining and refining within the range. The logistics base is set up for this reason, on the other side of the Maligesv Mountains, Zhong Yi can be completely monitored while sitting in front of the command console, and at the same time, the base's communication system can be directly connected to any combat vehicle. And the gold mining area is exactly beyond the control range of a hundred kilometers, and Zhong Yi cannot see the battle scene on the holographic screen, which makes the comrade commander very regretful.

The last communication with the front-line logistics base was in the early morning of the next day, when Zhong Yi received a report from Major Lin of the whole country in front of the command platform on the second floor, "Commander, all the units of the cavalry battalion responsible for blocking the attack have all been in place, and according to the plan, our department will launch an attack in half an hour." ”

"No news from Hebar yet?"

"Yes, commander, there has been no news back since Hebar entered the 17 Brigade station last night."

"Damn, this bullshit aristocrat is just unreliable, it can't be detained by others, right?"

…… There was no squeak in the whole country, he didn't think that he was detained, maybe he took the initiative to stay there, and he didn't have any good feelings about these white aristocrats.

"Alright, Guolin, attack as planned, pay attention to search for Hebar in the enemy's garrison, and try to save his life."

"Yes, Commander." In the command tank, Major Lin quickly switched the communicator to the command channel, "Attention to all vehicle groups, I am the No. 01 command vehicle, attention to all vehicle groups, armored battalion, prepare to attack." ”

Thirty-two Type 59 tanks marched in two columns at high speed with a rumbling sound, and the infantry fighting vehicles on both flanks were machine guns, ready to shoot any creature that tried to approach the tanks. An hour later, the armored battalion entered the gold mining area, unlike the desert area, which could change formation at will, because of the restrictions of the road, the tanks became a single column to pass in turn, and a large number of miners gathered at the entrance of many mines, looking curiously at the strange big iron bumps that would move. Maybe it was the last raid on the super mine shaft when the Red Alert soldiers' 07-style desert camouflage uniforms had already been exposed, when I saw that the commanders with half of their bodies exposed to the turret were also wearing that kind of colorful strange clothes, watching the commotion among the miners, some with weapons in their hands, hurriedly hid behind the crowd, and secretly hid their weapons, for fear of being discovered by the "robbers" on the big iron bumps.

Jiang Yunzhi, who took the lead in the No. 02 command tank, found that there were more and more onlookers, not only whites, but even natives appeared, frowned, and picked up the communicator, "I am No. 02, all infantry fighting vehicles should be on alert, and all tanks will pass through the mining area at the highest speed." ”

There must be a telephone connection to the city in the mining area, and if it is late, it will change, and the 17th Brigade cannot be given much time to prepare. But what is surprising is that when the armored battalion has been advancing to a distance of 10 kilometers from the barracks, the 17th Brigade still did not react at all, which is very abnormal, you must know that the firing distance of the 100-mm rifled gun of the Type 59 tank at the maximum elevation angle is more than 10 kilometers. The camp of a unit has already entered the range of other people's artillery fire, and there is no response, Jiang Yunzhi's brows furrowed even tighter, and he picked up the communicator, "Battalion commander, what do you think?" ”

"Yun Zhi, there must be something strange about this matter."

"......, is Hebal ...... Battalion commander, do you want me to try the attack first? ”

"No, Yun Zhi, the commander said that the Australian army is still just an old-style army stuck in the First World War, do you think that even if they get the news in advance, they can come up with anything that can deal with the Type 59 weapon? With those old-fashioned grandfather-class artillery? Command the vehicle groups, pay attention to movement, pay attention to the presence of anti-tank trenches in the enemy barracks, and infantry fighting vehicles are responsible for covering the flanks and clearing the enemy infantry. Armored battalion, forward! ”
