The bomber group of the Chinese Air Force in the air again did not attract much attention from the Nantes army, who believed that the other side's bombs would not have much effect on the beach, and that nothing would happen as long as they lay down in the makeshift bunker and were not thrown overhead by the unlucky ones. Therefore, they did not pay attention to the enemy planes overhead, but concentrated on the Chinese army units that were attacking the opponent head-on.

But this time they were doomed to tragedy, as one after another Kunpeng 3 bombers opened their bellies and bombs were dropped, and these bombs were no longer conventional bombs, but napalm. There was very little explosives in napalm, just enough to explode the body and spill the napalm wrapped around the explosives over a radius of fifteen meters, but that was sufficient.

The soldiers of the Nantes army suddenly found a large amount of fire pouring down on them, and even the trenches could not stop it, and these flames could not be extinguished once they were touched, even if they jumped into the sea. The Nantes positions soon became chaotic, but the Chinese army did not attack.

These Chinese air forces have also been holding back for several days, and this time they shot mercilessly, a large number of napalm bombs were thrown down, and now the beach has become a sea of fire, who dares to rush up. The soldiers of the Chinese Army lay hundreds of meters away, watching the Nantes soldiers on fire opposite, and their heart-rending screams made these battle-hardened veterans also feel chills all over their bodies.

The fire lasted for a whole day, and at last even the Nantes convoy did not dare to approach any longer, and the entire beach was burned to the ground. The 50,000 Nantes soldiers who served as the rearguard were burned alive here, and the charred corpse emitted a foul smell, which made the Chinese army soldiers who cleaned the battlefield also sick to their stomachs, but this is war, no matter what means are used, as long as they can win.

All 50,000 Nantes soldiers who were the rear troops of the palace were killed, and their deaths marked the complete destruction of the Axis Southern Route Army. Coupled with the casualties in the early stage, there were less than 210,000 Axis soldiers who were lucky enough to return to the Western Continent, and these people could only cooperate with the two million troops reinforced from the Central Route Army to arrange defensive lines along the coastline to prevent NATO Allied forces from crossing the strait to launch an attack, and the Axis countries completely turned to the defensive in the south.

When Gao Hong won a decisive victory, Su Zhizhen was not idle. With Feng Ju near San Diego attracting the main forces of the Boston Empire and the Moss Kingdom, his attack was much easier. Due to the fact that the Boston army was drawn to the battlefield near the port of San Diego, the strength of the Boston army in the north was weak, which made it fairly easy for the Imperial troops landing in the north to conduct offensive operations.

Fourteen wings of the Guards Air Force, as well as twenty-three wings of the reserves, were transported to the Boston Empire land in batches by large transports, where they were recommissioned and distributed to various military airfields. Soon in the north of the Boston Empire, the sky was completely controlled by the air force of the Chinese Empire, and the small number of air forces deployed in the north would be quickly shot down as soon as they took to the air, and in the end the Boston Air Force simply gave up the struggle for air supremacy.

In just one week, the army led by Su Zhizhen himself had already reached the line of the Snake River, and the 101st and 115th armies of Boston confronted each other across the river from Cangshuo.

In order to delay the attacking forces of the Chinese Empire as much as possible, the million-strong Boston army built hundreds of kilometers of fortifications along the Snake River and blew up all the bridges.

"The Bostonians are so ruthless, I can't imagine that they are so resolute, and we blew up all the bridges before we even got here." Su Zhizhen looked at the information in his hand and said, there was a hint of imperceptible contempt in his tone.

At this time, in the command headquarters where Su Zhizhen was personally seated, there were several high-ranking generals, all of whom were generals at the level of the commander of the group army, which could be described as high power. The commander of the 17th Army, General Xiao Cheng, smiled: "They have worked hard, which shows that the Boston people are weak, and they are not sure to hold the bridge, so they will destroy them before we seize it." ”

The commander of the Tenth Army, General Wang Xiucheng, also smiled: "That's right, now there is only a group of useless recruits left in the Boston Empire, how can they win the battle if they can't even hold guns." ”

Su Zhizhen nodded and said: "The strength of the enemy army is indeed very poor, but we can't take it lightly, once we are careless, it is easy to suffer a big loss." ”

"What Commander Su said is that we are now fighting in the territory of the enemy, but the territory of the Boston Empire is so large, we must not let the army lose too much, otherwise it will affect future operations. Now the fighting in the direction of the port of San Diego is quite fierce, and our troops are also suffering heavy losses, which requires us to deal with the enemy as soon as possible. With so many restrictions, how to cross the Snake as quickly as possible really needs to be carefully studied. Although Wang Xiucheng said that he looked down on the Bostonians, as an experienced old commander, he still attached great importance to the enemy at the tactical level.

Xiao Chengdao: "Although these Bostonians attach great importance to us, they are still old brains who stubbornly defend the river, and we can completely avoid attacking head-on and use other favorable conditions to destroy the enemy, such as Shoshone Falls in the upper reaches of the Snake River." ”

Chen Junhe, commander of the Twelfth Army, shook his head and said: "This can't be done, Gao Deyu did succeed near Kyiv last time, but it was by using a ready-made reservoir." Shoshone Falls doesn't have a reservoir at all, how can we block it to store water, not to mention that even if it does, the flow of the river will be greatly reduced, won't the Bostonians notice? You must know that this can be a home, and Bostonians are more familiar with various situations than us, and if the flood method does not get a surprise effect, Bostonians can retreat in advance, and we will be blocked by the flood and unable to advance, but it will help the opposite. ”

Xiao Chengdao: "The casualties of directly crossing the Snake River are too great, and it is not feasible to use floods, so what do you say should be done?" ”

Su Zhizhen said suddenly: "Actually, I have an immature idea, maybe it can work." But it depends on how long it will take our engineering troops to build enough pontoon bridges. ”

After the three army groups were in place, the 1.5 million army began the offensive first. The Chinese army did not use assault boats to force the crossing of the river, but used all kinds of heavy artillery and bombers to violently bombard the Boston military defense line on the other side of the river. Not to be outdone, the Boston Army also counterattacked with heavy artillery, interspersed with a small number of 360 mm guns that had just entered service, but the shells of these guns were too heavy and the rate of fire was not flattering.

According to Su Zhizhen's order, Xiao Cheng and the other three bombarded the positions on the opposite bank with all the artillery fire, but they did not have the slightest intention of crossing the river, which made the three group army commanders a little confused, and they did not know what to do next. Su Zhizhen never told the three of them the specifics, but only asked them to shoot at the enemy with all their firepower, and at the same time asked the bombers to mix some reconnaissance planes with some reconnaissance planes when attacking the enemy forces on the opposite bank, and let them draw a detailed defense map of the Boston Army.

The heavy artillery firing lasted for three days, and with the cooperation of the bomber troops, although the caliber of the heavy artillery of the Chinese army was inferior to that of the Boston army, it still had a great advantage in the number of enemies destroyed, especially the 360 mm caliber heavy guns of the Boston people, all of which were named by the bombers of the Chinese Air Force, and they were all lost in only half a day.

The two sides carried out extremely fierce firing, because the Chinese army had more artillery and stronger firepower, so that the Boston army suffered a lot of losses, but the opponent's army pressed the border, and the Boston army was afraid that the Chinese army would force the crossing of the Snake River, so they did not dare to withdraw the infantry along the river to avoid the artillery bombardment. As a result, the Boston infantry suffered heavy losses, with more than 60,000 casualties in three days, which made the Boston top brass have to draw troops from the rear to supplement the defense line along the river, which caused a continuous reduction in the rear troops, which is exactly what Su Zhizhen is willing to see.

On the night of July 11, Su Zhizhen's only four air assault troops and three paratrooper corps were assembled, and the various airfields in the rear were quickly busy, and a large number of helicopters and giant beast 3 transport planes were doing intense inspection and maintenance.

At one o'clock in the evening, Su Zhizhen gave the official order to attack. When the order was conveyed to various airports, all the air force departments became nervous, the pilots stepped up boarding, one after another Kunpeng 3 bombers took off into the sky, various helicopters and Golden Eagle 5 fighters serving as cover also took off one after another, and the last to rise into the sky was the huge giant Monster 3 transport plane.

Countless aircraft of various types were divided into several waves and flew towards their respective targets. The Bostonians who were sleeping soundly were quickly woken up by a loud roar in the air, and then a large number of Kunpeng 3 bombers began to launch intensive bombing on the defense line along the river and the artillery positions in the rear, causing heavy losses to the Bostonians.

Knowing that the front line was under attack, the first reaction of the second-star general of the Boston Army, Devers, as the commander-in-chief of the defense line along the river, was that the other side was going to force the crossing at night. Devers is very aware of the strength in his hands, how these recruits who have just put on military uniforms allow them to occupy the geographical advantage across the river, and there is still some certainty in blocking the Chinese army's river-crossing attack, once the geographical advantage across the river is broken, they can collapse at any time, so they have to transfer the reserves behind them to the defense line along the river overnight, hoping to block the opponent's attack.
